Welcome back! Today's post will be going over my experience with the second, and most eventful (testing-wise) trimester of pregnancy, including my symptoms, appointments, various tests and my experience going through a scare due to abnormal test results.

Welcome back! Today's post will be going over my experience with the first trimester of pregnancy, including all of my symptoms (and how I managed them) as well as the different appointments and testing that occurred concerning my pregnancy.

Now, it goes without saying that what I did might not work for you, and it very well might not work for me the next time around. That's because there is never a 100% chance that you will get pregnant, even while trying every possible day during a cycle since there are many factors completely out of our control that even something like IVF can't make happen with a guarantee. However, there are things you can do to increase your chances of conceiving and I'd like to share everything I did in hopes that it will help someone like me who didn't know anything about trying to conceive (TTC) before starting my journey.

Disclaimer: I am a healthy woman in my twenties who does not have any conditions that would decrease my fertility (for example, PCOS, Endometriosis, etc.) with a very consistent cycle whose husband is the same age and also has no fertility issues of his own (for example, low sperm count). This makes our changes MUCH higher right off the bat so please keep that in mind. With this little disclaimer out of the way, let's get started!
