AF due 26th Dec

88 replies

Treaclepie19 · 19/12/2013 19:46

AF due on 26th Dec, trying my hardest not to think about testing, especially since we weren't meant to be trying this month!
I have a ridiculous supply of tests upstairs and so wanting to test on saturday even though I know it's too early.
Not sure why I'm posting as nobody can help, just need to vent!

Anyone in the same boat?

It's so hard to resist. I feel like I want to poas every time I go pee, just in case. I know there's no point yet. Smile

Haha, yeah I'm the same with the bleeding.
boosk I'm going to test Xmas morning then wait til AF comes. Im going to the pantomime tomorrow though so may end up testing in the morning as I'll be 10DPO.

When are you testing Treacle? I'm trying to hold off till Christmas Eve.

ADifferentKindOfMum · 22/12/2013 13:54

I think that until I see a bit of abnormal mid cycle bleeding (which I never get) to indicate implantation I'm going to assume we haven't succeeded. I'm 40 and in the last six months pmt has meant so many pregnancy-similar symptoms I know I can really fool myself, so symptom spotting is out for now!

Itchy breasts though Wink

I feel the same! I had to ask for a jug of water last night :/
My symptoms are all gone so wondering if I had made them all up :(

Another drinker here..have had a few glasses last night and the night before but am going to knock it on the head now until christmas day I think..I feel wretched today and I was guzzling more from thirst last night than anything!?!

Absolutely symptomless this end aside from a back ache which is a general health niggle.

Seems we have the same cycle Boosk I'm also 8, maybe 9 dpo. Yeah I was finding I felt full a lot and apparently it is a symptom!

OP posts:
Princesscrystalx · 21/12/2013 14:52

Hey ladies can i join?
Im 6 dpo, due on 1/1/14 and times going sooooo slow!!
Done everything i could this month so really really
Hoping! Tingles in my boobs n slight twinges in my belly
But probably where im tryna convince myself so much!!
When can i test? Well done everyone holding out for testing
And good luck! Lots of baby dust cxxxx

Boosk · 21/12/2013 13:00

I'm cycle 1 of ttc no 1 and am 8dpo.

Sore boobs (normal for me pre-af)
Mild cramping yesterday and today, like period pain but no where near as bad.
Didn't know about the feeling full quickly when eating. I did struggle to finish my breakfast this morning and then a couple of hours later I still felt too full but also hungry. Weird.

Well done threebee, remember lots of people don't experience symptoms!
Fingers crossed for us all! :)

threebee · 21/12/2013 12:13

I'm 12dpo today and still holding out, as I am not very hopeful! I think I'll probably only test if my temps stay up until Monday, when I'm due on. Not a lot to report in the way of symptoms here. Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone!

Hi kmini :)
You're right :) Weill try and keep positive!
When are we all going to POAS? We could have a Christmas day club :P

Regina this is my first cycle and to be honest we weren't meant to be starting until January... Whoops :P

ReginaFelange22 · 21/12/2013 11:11

Ha treacle sounds like me! What cycles are we all on? I'm just second after coming off the pill. Body went crazy last month, put it down to ovulating. Felt lightheaded, sick, thumping headache and pains in my stomach! Was not good. Fine this month though lol! x

kmini · 21/12/2013 10:20

I'm 26th too! Holding tight on the poas, trying to keep the hope alive a little longer.

Treacle I think its still too early so keep the faith. Symptoms sound great.

ReginaFelange22 · 21/12/2013 09:52

I'm due on the 26th too!! I just mentioned on another thread, I have no tests in the house and have so much to do pre-Xmas I haven't even thought about testing tbh! Well I have but not gone and bought tests.

I don't want to test without my OH being home either so I have to wait lol!!

Anyone got any symptoms?

toots123 · 21/12/2013 09:47

Your not out yet treacle :)

I wont have a bfp before Christmas anyway so just going to have a few glasses of wine. Ive been cutting back on drinking since we started trying anyway so people wont notice.
having Christmas dinner at the in laws this year and even if I was drunk, they will all be worse than me haha
