Lucie! Thank you for your candor about your conception journey! I am not trying to get pregnant myself, as I just had the Nexoplanon BC implanted in my arm, but I love your thorough research & commitment to your body, as well as your comfort to share your journey with the Fink Fam! I’ve never heard anyone else talk about their cervical mucus & I love your scientific approach! Rock on, mama!
Delaney monitor your mood and symptoms monthly keep track of yourself. That implant made me and my friends very sick but not everyone is sensitive to it. I hope it works well for you but i just wanted to warn you just in case. My doctor waived off my feelings (he doesn’t have a uterus) and i felt so much better after i got it taken out. When i switched doctors my female doctor told me she wouldn’t have suggested that bc. So just be aware of your own body and how you feel ❤️
@@andreaaloisi1138 thank you for saying this! I was going to say the exact same thing nexplanon made my life horrible i strongly believe it shouldnt be on the market
I'm not in a relationship or anywhere near being ready to be a mother but I love watching all of Lucie's videos on the topic because she has such a calming voice and you can tell she's really studied into what she's talking about
I love how mature and upfront this video was. Bodily functions and sex are both obviously a huge part of conception but ppl don't talk about it 😅❤ this is the type of honest pregnancy journey the world needs 🥰🥰
It’s cool how everyone’s conception journey is so different I got off of nexplanon December 2020 and found out I was expecting January 2021 just trying naturally. Currently 34 weeks pregnant with my second and last daughter I know I’m super blessed by getting pregnant right away with both of my babies and that’s not everyone’s story I try not to take that for granted but I do feel lucky
Thank you so much for educating us as well as normalizing that it’s okay to have to go through this with your partner. I feel as if a lot of people are embarrassed nowadays to share and express how hard or how easy it can be to get pregnant. Congrats and I wish you a healthy/safe/beautiful pregnancy.
Amazing video- so honest and open! I appreciate your consideration for couples who struggle to conceive. We followed the same steps as you but took 2 years + months of IVF to conceive so anyone who doesn’t manage to get there using these methods still has lots of hope with the magic of science. ♥️
It's so great to see information like this for women even if they aren't ready to conceive. I wish I had done more research and tests even before we were ready because after going off the pill my period never came back. It's now more than a year later and we are on a fertility journey we never thought we would be on. Knowledge and being proactive with your health is a powerful thing ❤️
This is important information to know. Way to go Lucie! I am 50 now but I wish I had known this when I was ready. It took me three years to get pregnant and had no clue about any of this until I had my children and was way older.
When my boyfriend and I decided we wanted to have a baby, I stopped taking birth control for a month first to see if my period would come back normally. That first cycle was 27 days, so I also thought everything was fine and back to normal straight away. But then my cycles became longer and longer each time, I think the longest one was 48 days. At first I wasn't planning on tracking my ovulation, but when my cycles became so irregular I really wanted to, otherwise I had no clue on when I was ovulating. I was pregnant after 9 months of trying. Unfortunately there was no heartbeat at our 8 week scan that time, but we were very lucky to be pregnant again quite soon after. The positive thing about it taking so long for me to become pregnant is that I really began to know my body and my cycle better. Both times that I got pregnant, we only DTD once because our predictions were so accurate at that point ;) There was no need to try multiple times a day for days on end. For me personally, I will not go back on birth control, or at least not as long as I want more children. I really feel like birth control messed with my body, and I feel much more at ease since it is out of my system. Although currently 27 weeks pregnant :). Really nice to hear your experience, as it has a lot of similarities to mine. This is also my first baby, at 29 years old. All the best for the rest of your pregnancy!
Love how thorough and how well you explained your journey. The only thing I will say is I think you mean fertile window when you talk about "ovulation window". Your fertile window is 6 days long ending on the day of ovulation and you will ovulate typically 24-36 hours after your "peak" or LH surge. While on this 6 day window the 5 days before ovulation you can still get pregnant, your highest chance of conceiving is on ovulation day. Congratulations on pregnancy and your continued journey!
This is amazing cause it gives you sooo much information a lot of people dont know and it makes me feel like you and your partner put all the effort to be prepared and to have all under control for your baby cause its a major event and everybody should take it like an actual proyect and not only romanticize their journey.
I’m so glad I saw this! Clearblue says to stop testing after 9 days blinking smiley faces and to see you’ve gone all way up to 28 days just gives me hope I’ll get my peak!
My medical doctor just confirmed me better and very okay after undergoing DR RORPOPOR HERBAL on RUclips treatment plan for my PCOS, now am pregnant....❤️
So interesting how young people plan for such an event these days. Back in my day, we didn't do anything to prepare. We just got pregnant and had a baby like women have been doing since the beginning of time. I wish we had more info like this to help prepare while keeping the baby safe. Excited to follow your journey Lucie!
Interesting to watch, especially as a woman who got pregnant at LOT sooner than initially planned 😆. I foolishly believed that it would take my husband and I at least 6 months to a year to convince as we were both in our mid 30s and I had been on hormonal birth control for 14 years. I went off the pill in March and stopped all forms of bc in late April/May. I got pregnant in June without us actively trying. Big Suprise!!! A happy surprise and we're becoming more excited as time goes on 😊 So don't make my mistake, do your research like Lucie and be prepared to fall pregnant straight away as you never know what could happen......
I love how you speak so openly about your body and it’s natural processes. It’s so great to hear someone do that!!! This is also a really interesting example of why the Texas 6 week abortion law is ridiculous. You technically got pregnant in February but didn’t realize until April because of your specific cycle. Classic textbook example of how if this had been an unwanted pregnancy it would have been beyond the 6 week window.
Loved the scientific facts used to explain your journey. Congrats on the pregnancy. I’m also pregnant (6 months) and used ovulation tracking to conceive.
The SAME THING happened to me!! I got off the pill thinking we have a year before we actually want to start trying - but as soon as I got off it, we were like "yepp we're ready". I think because our hormones were asleep for so long - been on the pill 10 years - that when they wake up they are like "give me my baby!!" 😄
Lemme just say you would be my favorite patient! Lucie Fink is on the schedule today?! Sweet, lets see what fun data points she brings in this time. *pulls out bullet journal with ovulation strips and charts* It's honestly so cool that you tracked all this.
Hiiiii! I love all your videos but with all my respect just wanna give constructive criticism.. The pop up sounds where too much, they appear a looooot. At least I find much more soothing just hearing your voice and eventually a sound effect. Super happy for the little family you are starting
I tried for almost 3 yrs to get pregnant with my first. Through lots of testing, I learned that I ovulated on days 3-5 of my cycle. We were always "trying" during mid-cycle thinking that's the typical ovulation. It's really good to know your body and learn when you ovulate. Once I learned this I got pregnant within a couple of months. That was 27 yrs ago now. lol
@@jy4356 sorry, it's been a while. lol I had my period for 3-4 days then I would ovulate so day 4-9 is more like it. So just ahead of the mid-cycle. We would wait to try so my husband could "build up supply" lol oh the delicate talk. so we were missing my window. Once we figured that out it took about 2 months to get pregnant.
You would be an excellent scientist if you ever want to move away from social media :). Absolutely loved this video, thank you for sharing this wealth of knowledge!
For someone who was 11 years on the pill and not getting pregnant right away at 16, that’s like amazing! I always been scared of the pill making me not fertile! Always used coitus corruptus! Now I can try the pills without being scare about it!
Hi Lucie I m currently in my late teens. I would love if u make a video abt "losing ur virginity" like how u felt mentally ready and other things one should be prepared for. BTW this video is also amazing
@@helen-pk4wv I think not a lot of people talk about this is because everyone is so so so so different. As long as both people are 18+ and you understand birth control is not 100% effective. Maybe wrap your head around that sex can be a journey and finding a person to stick with you through it might be worth it.
It’s not just physical it’s mental. And not a lot of people are ready to handle that at a young age. Maybe you as an individual are but your potential partner might not be.
Yes girl! I understand the long cycles 😩 I ended up ovulating on cd 78 the cycle we conceived my daughter. It was so frustrating, it took us 2-3 years for her, now I’m on cycle #7 trying for number 2! I’ve had 2 miscarriages in that time, I chart also so I’ve found I have a short luteal phase but I’ve gotten it lengthened till 12 days now… 7dpo today, wish me luck 🤞🏻
My medical doctor just confirmed me better and very okay after undergoing DR RORPOPOR HERBAL on RUclips treatment plan for my PCOS, now am pregnant....❤️
Currently in the looooong cycle “waiting time” but I’ve been without a period since June! And before that since February! I’m slowly losing my mind & no doctors are getting back to me 😪 love Canadian free health care.
Maybe you’ll cover this in the video about the emotional component, but what was your thinking/mindset around the genetic testing? Would you have avoided pregnancy based on a certain result?
This is the best video I’ve ever seen about the topic ❤️I can relate so much on your experience! I’ve taken the pill for 3-4 years and started my journey on june 2021. I also went to a gynecologist to leave the pill and I’m currently working with a nutritionist to get my cycle back (I have also left the gluten out of my diet and more). Doing blood test, the first cycle was like a clock but now I’m on the second one and on day 50 without my cycle (similar to you). I’m going to start with my progesterone supplement next week as the doctor told me to get try my cycle back and I’m also taking magnesium amd other nutritional supplements. I’m not trying to get pregnant at the moment, but I want to in 2 years, so I started this journey to make my body work natural again with my partner support. It is also a very difficult journey mentally and I hope for the best for all of you struggling with it. Greetings for Barcelona 💕
Hi Lucie, I'm curious to learn more about using both the ovulation sticks & BBT. Do you think they complemented each other or provided extra security in knowing exactly what day range you'd potentially ovulate? Did they ever not correspond? Sounds like you are very data-driven (I am too!), but I hadn't considered using both until recently.
YES they always worked in conjunction! when it comes to BBT, I've found it generally doesn't rise until AFTER the ovulation has occurred, and the LH level spikes a bit BEFORE ovulation. So often you'd get a positive OPK stick but then you won't get the temperature spike until a couple of days later. But assuming you're measuring correctly & ovulating, they should line up like this!!
hello! i really appreciate and enjoyed this video, especially your clarity! not trying to get pregnant, but it's so cool to see what our bodies are capable of and all the factors that play into our body systems! :D
It sounds like a lot of the things that you talked about in your “Going off the pill after 11 years” video ended up getting resolved/not being related to the pill (migraines were related to Celiac disease, the “lack of a period” was more of a 40 day cycle (absolutely correct me if I’m wrong but I believe that’s still within the range of normal), and you got pregnant pretty much as soon as you were trying to, so bc didn’t hinder your fertility). How do you feel about that video/information now?
I loooooved this video! I have been tracking for over 4-5 years now (using the method as birth control as well as when TTC) so I know the facts here, however now that Im getting older and my friends are trying to get pregnant too I'm surprised they do not have a clue about such things, it is really something we should be focusing on (or at least mentioning) at school as it is so important to know our bodies as they can show us if something is not right..also Im glad you focused on the fact that not everybody is ovulating on day 14-15 as many women think (and they end up not trying at the right time). Thank you Lucy for being so awesome at explaining everything clearly! and also congrats on you baby!!!! :)
If you're reading this comment, one small positive thought can change your whole day & believe you can and you’re halfway there ✨. God bless you, and may your dreams come true, stay safe and have a wonderful day.🦋
I'm curious to know what you would have done had you been a match for a disorder. I'm pregnant with no.2 and have never heard of doing genetic testing before trying to conceive. Fascinating!
My medical doctor just confirmed me better and very okay after undergoing DR RORPOPOR HERBAL on RUclips treatment plan for my PCOS, now am pregnant....❤️
Hi Lucie! Love this video and I am halfway through watching. A piece of feedback from me, all of the little popping noises throughout the video are a little too much, in my opinion. Maybe they could be a little bit less loud? Thanks!
I was thinking about it in the beginning 😅 I'm having quite a bad headache, so I'm more sensitive to it (and playing it not so loud) and the popping nosis are louder than the video itself. 😬 Thank you!
From being on birth control since I was 16 I always wonder if I need to do certain things when my bf and I eventually decide to have a baby and for me to come off the pill. Thank you for this video!
She mentions a lot of supplements, but the one every woman getting off birth control should definitely take, is folic acid! It's important in the very first weeks of pregnancy, when you often don't know yet that you're pregnant, so it's best to start taking it once you start trying to conceive.
Wait! How far along are you???? I conceived around April 21 to April 26 according to conception dates calculators. On May 15th I found out I was pregnant. I was 5 weeks. What's your due date??? Now I'm excited!
Hii when I look at ur vid when u said ur having a baby ur sis is so happy she was crying She is going to be a ant omg she will be a nice one and. U will be a nice mom bye I bet ur baby will look cute :)
wow i can't believe you decided to go through all this testing! it would trigger so much anxiety for me, i would never do it, i would just try. i do appreciate whar you stated in the beginning - i have a friend who went through the whole infertility thing, so i think it's sensitive of you to think about it and say it. i want to use that app for birth control! how safe is it? i've never been on the pill or any other hormonal birth control
Hello how are you? Each month i get my period on 30th day. So what will be my ovulation time to conceive? And what should i eat to support baby if i conceive? Do k need to take some medicine to conceive if yes then which one.plz recommend me
Hello Lucy! I find your video just so helpful knowing that I’m not alone and someone else out there had the exact same issues I am having post Yasmin… quick question which is the genetic testing you did? Like 23 and me or more specific? And which are the strips you bought? Thank you so so much
When is it suppose to be your day 1 of period. Is it when you’re spotting (doesn’t matter if it’s very light) or is it suppose to be day 1 when you have a heavy flow?
This is giving me fertility nerd energy and I like it. You came prepared and you delivered. Can't wait for baby Poppy! ps: Watching this while frantically researching online for the best IUD option, because I want to come off the pill (after 11 years) but I firmly want to be childfree, and I cannot rely solely on condoms or my anxiety would kill me. Hihi Anyone in the comments has advice? I'm leaning towards copper IUD.
My medical doctor just confirmed me better and very okay after undergoing DR RORPOPOR HERBAL on RUclips treatment plan for my PCOS, now am pregnant....❤️
Ohhh my gosh. I love your voice and can totally chill and listen to you take but those BOPS! Ugh driving me nuts any time you mention a little thing, just go bop.. bop.. ruining my vibe lol but great info! Thank you
My medical doctor just confirmed me better and very okay after undergoing DR RORPOPOR HERBAL on RUclips treatment plan for my PCOS, now am pregnant....❤️
Hi, I've never heard of the genetics testing - would you have chosen not to have kids if you were a match? or what action does one take after finding out the info?
Curious…. Your vein thing in your head…. Is it called an AVM???? I have celiac disease and am waiting on an mri to look for an AVM on my brain (which my mother has) …. Just curious
I wish I could be a mother like you my utras has a huge problem my folopin tube tuble block doctor asked laparoscopy but i am very poor not money my family s stomach runs very hard can you help me some money donate
So amazing! God bless you! To everyone: Jesus loves you so so much and He died so we can be forgiven and go to Heaven with God if we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior! Have a great day! God bless everyone!
Well I was going to watch your video but all those popping sounds were absolutely annoying coming through my speakers. Why everytime you put something on the screen did it has to be accompanied by a sound? I mean your talking and we are watching...no animated sound needed.
I have a question. Why do women want to get pregnant? Pregnancy puts a lot of strain on a woman's body, and it has risks, and a pregnancy lasts 9 months. Also, childbirth is very painful. And also, raising children is very hard. Personally, I think being childfree would be a lot better than having children, but that's just my opinion.
I know you are pro-vax. Some people do get reactions that they don't realize are related to getting vaccinated. I would question if either of the vaccines you received triggered some of the health issues you experienced. I've seen this happen and had to say something...
She clearly explained that she has celiac disease. Also, going of the pill often leads to migraines and other adjustment symptoms. Also, I belive the symptoms started prior to the vaccine. Don't try to push for your unfounded and, honestly, dangerous anti scientic views.
@@lavacaqueri5454 Oh wow. You clearly have never researched vaccine injury. I suggest you do a little reading before you come out like you know what you're talking about. ***SOME*** people have their immune systems go into overdrive after being vaccinated and trigger negative immune response.
Aww congrats so beautiful! We are also sharing our pregnancy journey and trying to showcase the classes/ appointments we attend to educate ourselves and anyone watching. Please give us a view💙 sammysCamera
I love how much detail and planning went into your pregnancy journey 🤍 Btw, have you ever heard about the Billings method Family Planning?, cause it’s very similar to what you did. And according to it the closest you have sex to your ovulation date the more likely you are to conceive a boy (and viceversa), and seeing your dates seems it worked 💙✨

Currently in the looooong cycle “waiting time” but I’ve been without a period since June! And before that since February! I’m slowly losing my mind & no doctors are getting back to me 😪 love Canadian free health care.
Maybe you’ll cover this in the video about the emotional component, but what was your thinking/mindset around the genetic testing? Would you have avoided pregnancy based on a certain result?
Thank you!! Will cover!!
This is the best video I’ve ever seen about the topic ❤️I can relate so much on your experience! I’ve taken the pill for 3-4 years and started my journey on june 2021. I also went to a gynecologist to leave the pill and I’m currently working with a nutritionist to get my cycle back (I have also left the gluten out of my diet and more). Doing blood test, the first cycle was like a clock but now I’m on the second one and on day 50 without my cycle (similar to you). I’m going to start with my progesterone supplement next week as the doctor told me to get try my cycle back and I’m also taking magnesium amd other nutritional supplements. I’m not trying to get pregnant at the moment, but I want to in 2 years, so I started this journey to make my body work natural again with my partner support. It is also a very difficult journey mentally and I hope for the best for all of you struggling with it. Greetings for Barcelona 💕
I’ve been waiting for this thanks so much hope u are all ok and safe ❤️❤️
Hi Lucie, I'm curious to learn more about using both the ovulation sticks & BBT. Do you think they complemented each other or provided extra security in knowing exactly what day range you'd potentially ovulate? Did they ever not correspond? Sounds like you are very data-driven (I am too!), but I hadn't considered using both until recently.
YES they always worked in conjunction! when it comes to BBT, I've found it generally doesn't rise until AFTER the ovulation has occurred, and the LH level spikes a bit BEFORE ovulation. So often you'd get a positive OPK stick but then you won't get the temperature spike until a couple of days later. But assuming you're measuring correctly & ovulating, they should line up like this!!
hello! i really appreciate and enjoyed this video, especially your clarity!
not trying to get pregnant, but it's so cool to see what our bodies are capable of and all the factors that play into our body systems! :D
It sounds like a lot of the things that you talked about in your “Going off the pill after 11 years” video ended up getting resolved/not being related to the pill (migraines were related to Celiac disease, the “lack of a period” was more of a 40 day cycle (absolutely correct me if I’m wrong but I believe that’s still within the range of normal), and you got pregnant pretty much as soon as you were trying to, so bc didn’t hinder your fertility). How do you feel about that video/information now?
Yay!!!! I’ve been so excited for this video!
Every mother feels tat it's bliss when it's born ; and we tecinally grow with them👶🏻💋❤...
I loooooved this video! I have been tracking for over 4-5 years now (using the method as birth control as well as when TTC) so I know the facts here, however now that Im getting older and my friends are trying to get pregnant too I'm surprised they do not have a clue about such things, it is really something we should be focusing on (or at least mentioning) at school as it is so important to know our bodies as they can show us if something is not right..also Im glad you focused on the fact that not everybody is ovulating on day 14-15 as many women think (and they end up not trying at the right time). Thank you Lucy for being so awesome at explaining everything clearly! and also congrats on you baby!!!! :)
we’re going to TTC in a week, this was perfect timing, thank you so much!
Me too me too me too!!😍😍baby dust
If you're reading this comment, one small positive thought can change your whole day & believe you can and you’re halfway there ✨. God bless you, and may your dreams come true, stay safe and have a wonderful day.🦋
We love you Lucieeee!!!
I'm curious to know what you would have done had you been a match for a disorder. I'm pregnant with no.2 and have never heard of doing genetic testing before trying to conceive. Fascinating!
Thank you for this video - I so appreciate all the details you shared! Do you remember what at home genetics testing kit you used?
Yes! Will share in the next video on this topic!
Love all the great info
Thx u girl
My medical doctor just confirmed me better and very okay after undergoing DR RORPOPOR HERBAL on RUclips treatment plan for my PCOS, now am pregnant....❤️
I👏🏻am👏🏻here👏🏻for👏🏻This👏🏻video!!
Hi Lucie! Love this video and I am halfway through watching. A piece of feedback from me, all of the little popping noises throughout the video are a little too much, in my opinion. Maybe they could be a little bit less loud? Thanks!
Thanks for the feedback!!!
I was thinking about it in the beginning 😅 I'm having quite a bad headache, so I'm more sensitive to it (and playing it not so loud) and the popping nosis are louder than the video itself. 😬 Thank you!
@@veronikavysoudilova9697 Will relay to my editing team!! ❤️
Temperature spike is due to your LH serge...goot it..!! Thx!🥰 love this video
From being on birth control since I was 16 I always wonder if I need to do certain things when my bf and I eventually decide to have a baby and for me to come off the pill. Thank you for this video!
love this!!!! thank you for watching!
She mentions a lot of supplements, but the one every woman getting off birth control should definitely take, is folic acid! It's important in the very first weeks of pregnancy, when you often don't know yet that you're pregnant, so it's best to start taking it once you start trying to conceive.
Please do a video on how you knew you where ready to have a baby.
Hi Lucie! Loved this video! what kind of thermometer did you use?
0:29 🎉wow post more videos like this 😢❤😂🎉
Wait! How far along are you???? I conceived around April 21 to April 26 according to conception dates calculators. On May 15th I found out I was pregnant. I was 5 weeks. What's your due date??? Now I'm excited!
I believe she conceived in march because my due date is only two days ahead of hers
Yes conceived March 21/22ish and found out April 2! Due December 12!
Hii when I look at ur vid when u said ur having a baby ur sis is so happy she was crying She is going to be a ant omg she will be a nice one and. U will be a nice mom bye I bet ur baby will look cute :)
wow i can't believe you decided to go through all this testing! it would trigger so much anxiety for me, i would never do it, i would just try. i do appreciate whar you stated in the beginning - i have a friend who went through the whole infertility thing, so i think it's sensitive of you to think about it and say it.
i want to use that app for birth control! how safe is it? i've never been on the pill or any other hormonal birth control

Hello how are you? Each month i get my period on 30th day. So what will be my ovulation time to conceive? And what should i eat to support baby if i conceive? Do k need to take some medicine to conceive if yes then which one.plz recommend me
Hello Lucy! I find your video just so helpful knowing that I’m not alone and someone else out there had the exact same issues I am having post Yasmin… quick question which is the genetic testing you did? Like 23 and me or more specific? And which are the strips you bought? Thank you so so much
How long did it take you? In how many tries?
Is it hair products or pregnancy glow but your hair looks amazing!
Hi! Just curious what testing company did you go to when testing your genetics?
When is it suppose to be your day 1 of period. Is it when you’re spotting (doesn’t matter if it’s very light) or is it suppose to be day 1 when you have a heavy flow?
This is giving me fertility nerd energy and I like it.
You came prepared and you delivered. Can't wait for baby Poppy!
ps: Watching this while frantically researching online for the best IUD option, because I want to come off the pill (after 11 years) but I firmly want to be childfree, and I cannot rely solely on condoms or my anxiety would kill me. Hihi
Anyone in the comments has advice? I'm leaning towards copper IUD.
Diaphragm + contragel in addition to easy@home tracking.
Since your cycle is so long, did the doctors still calculate expected due date based on your missed period?
There is usually a dating scan around week 8 for people with irregular cycles. Most doctors use it.
Did you continue the vitamins even after your lh surge
My medical doctor just confirmed me better and very okay after undergoing DR RORPOPOR HERBAL on RUclips treatment plan for my PCOS, now am pregnant....❤️
What were the symptoms you got before testing for pregnancy
kinda off topic, but do you have tinnitus or anything cause of the headaches/vein anomaly? can you make a vid about your vein anomaly?
Hey how many days did you wait after trying before you tested for pregnancy
About 11!
Ohhh my gosh. I love your voice and can totally chill and listen to you take but those BOPS! Ugh driving me nuts any time you mention a little thing, just go bop.. bop.. ruining my vibe lol but great info! Thank you

Hi, I've never heard of the genetics testing - would you have chosen not to have kids if you were a match? or what action does one take after finding out the info?
We personally would have done IVF to ensure that the genetic disorder wasn't passed on (you can often pick out embryos that don't carry it!).
Do more pregnancy videos
Did anyone see the door creepily open in the background at 6:46!!!!!?
Did your cervical mocus change once you got pregnant?
Curious…. Your vein thing in your head…. Is it called an AVM???? I have celiac disease and am waiting on an mri to look for an AVM on my brain (which my mother has) …. Just curious
Mine was a small transverse sinus. Basically, the vein was so small it looked non-existent!
Oh and did you get implantation bleeding?
Hey 😅mi pregnant
Would have loved to finish this video but holy moly, the ridiculous amount of pop noises constantly was way too much.
I wish I could be a mother like you my utras has a huge problem my folopin tube tuble block doctor asked laparoscopy but i am very poor not money my family s stomach runs very hard can you help me some money donate
So amazing! God bless you!
To everyone: Jesus loves you so so much and He died so we can be forgiven and go to Heaven with God if we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior! Have a great day! God bless everyone!
Well I was going to watch your video but all those popping sounds were absolutely annoying coming through my speakers. Why everytime you put something on the screen did it has to be accompanied by a sound? I mean your talking and we are watching...no animated sound needed.
I have a question. Why do women want to get pregnant? Pregnancy puts a lot of strain on a woman's body, and it has risks, and a pregnancy lasts 9 months. Also, childbirth is very painful. And also, raising children is very hard.
Personally, I think being childfree would be a lot better than having children, but that's just my opinion.
I know you are pro-vax. Some people do get reactions that they don't realize are related to getting vaccinated. I would question if either of the vaccines you received triggered some of the health issues you experienced. I've seen this happen and had to say something...
Ohh…🤔🤔🤔🧐🧐🤨💭
She clearly explained that she has celiac disease. Also, going of the pill often leads to migraines and other adjustment symptoms.
Also, I belive the symptoms started prior to the vaccine. Don't try to push for your unfounded and, honestly, dangerous anti scientic views.
@@lavacaqueri5454 Oh wow. You clearly have never researched vaccine injury. I suggest you do a little reading before you come out like you know what you're talking about. ***SOME*** people have their immune systems go into overdrive after being vaccinated and trigger negative immune response.

I love how much detail and planning went into your pregnancy journey 🤍
Btw, have you ever heard about the Billings method Family Planning?, cause it’s very similar to what you did. And according to it the closest you have sex to your ovulation date the more likely you are to conceive a boy (and viceversa), and seeing your dates seems it worked 💙✨
Apparently this is because x chromosome sperm cells are more resistant. It's also why older men are more likely to have baby daughters.
