We're Gonna Need A Bigger Sleigh!!! December Hopeful's say AYE!

Hope it works out for you! Never hurts to be hopeful - realistically tho! xx

yay! ta! xxxxxx fingers crossed!

Hi,

It is poss you've got pregnancy hormones. You have a flush of them obv when pg and it can cause pmt signals so thats y a lot of women dont realise they're pg. Still worth keeping hope xx

Hello! Another question from me- sorry but you are all my guru's!!!! If I was pregnant (CD19 in a 26 day cycle) would I be getting PMT? I feel vile today and short tempered(not a hangover!!) Could I still be pregnant or do you think this is a bad sign that the PMT is here? xxxxxxxxxmuch lovexxxxxxxxxx

Ready, you could have made this pregnancy thing a little more tempting!

So sorry about the AFs girls... come and join us on the January thread!! Here's to 2007!! May it be filled with morning sickness and stretch marks

Hey all, thanks to those who asked after me while I've been away. AF arrived this morning too, and I feel really crap. It was a day late and I was sure we'd done everything right this month, so I was really optimistic yesterday! And today I've got all the clearing up to do from our party last night!

Oh well, I guess I'll feel more positive again tomorrow when the cramps have eased a bit and the house looks less like a bomb has hit it. New year, new start, new baby hopefully!

Joining you on the Jan thread too, AF arrived this morning. Gutted, absolutely shattered

Thanks for kind thoughts. That is one of the things that is so lovely about people on this site

AF arrived about 2 hours after I tested DOH! . Feeling a bit more stoic about it today.
Back at work tomorrow so decided to pamper myself a bit today.

Good luck to you this next month Hogmanay hangover. Bouncing myself over to January hopefuls so should see you there. Next AF due 29th Jan. Fingers crossed this is the month for us both.

xx

Fingerscrossed, dont want to get your hopes up but you may have tested too early.

Gutted. Had spent all of last 2 days worrying about wether to test or not before new years eve (AF due tomorrow). One of my worries being guilt about drinks tonight if it turned out that i was pregnant. Anyway whilst DP popped out to get extra drinks from our local off-licence i tested. BFN. This is the fifth month of trying and I had really hoped that this would be the one! hanging on to the thought that midnight is not tooo far away and I can toast in the new year with an alcoholic drink.... and hang on to the thought that there is always next month.

AF has arrived.

Awww xmassy, sorry to hear that AF arrived, hope you're ok

Well boo. AF came full-on this morning with no prior warning via spotting. Feel like poo, loads of cramping etc. And the bad moods to go with 1st day . Still, will pop a couple of nurofen, get on with the day's festivities, and see you all over on the Jan thread!
Happy New Year all, and good luck MadameBRANDYBUTTERfly.

xmassy - just go for it and have a drink! if you don't and then you aren't pg you will be annoyed that you didnt! if that makes sense! and if you do turn out to be pg, you might feel a bit bad that you had a drink, but hey...you'll be pg so you wont really care!!!!!!!
ENJOY YOURSELVES EVERYONE!!!!
good luck with your testing tomorrow xmassy!

Hey Xmassy, Hope your AF doesnt arrive, that would be a great present! The no drinking thing is getting to me, its been 5 months! decided not to drink at all whilst ttc incase of anything and now 5 months later, im screaming! Not 1 drop of alcohol has touched my lips!!!

I dont drink often anyway but its the knowing you cant that makes it obv!!!

Yeh i've tried some i bought off ebay, 2 boots, 1 normal clearblue and 1 dig. Trying a superdrug next thurs. Doing the rounds

Hello all remaining Decemberites!

Now CD29; last 3 cycles have been 27 days. No spotting at all, temps holding. BUT BFNs every time - even with a Clearblue. I'm 12 dpo at the moment and I'm DESPERATE to know one way or the other before NYE partying hits!

One more Clearblue left and I don't think I'm going to be able to resist the lure tomorrow morning. Apologies in advance to the Clearblue Fairy!

Fingers crossed for you, MadameBRANDYButterfly. Did you cave in and test this morning?

Thanks for the good wishes, whoops.

Babylove - really feel for you not knowing one way or the other. Have you tried doing all sorts of different tests? All becomes very expensive, getting obsessed with testing! My cheapies have just run out and I'm onto the Clearblues now - so will have to ration!

Ammy - a saliva ovulation microscope can be bought for £15 ish from www.accessdiagnostics.co.uk (I think). It's another way of predicting ovulation, by looking at the way your saliva dries. Apparently if it crystallizes into a ferning pattern when it dries that signifies that you are fertile. I bought one for this month and I have to say I NEVER really saw any ferning on it - apart from on CD5, which was wayyy before I ovulated.

Good luck to all testing over the next few days. I wish AF wouldn't have chosen this month to arrive late..!!

Oooh the intrigue as to HogmanayHangover is!!! Fingers crossed AF stays away!

whats an ovulation microscope?

I have changed my name for new year and also for a bit of anonimity as a family member comes on here and I don't really want them finding out until I am ready to tell them.

I have just tested and got a BFN, but I have had the niggly headaches that usually accompany AF.

Will test again on Monday IF she has not arrived.

Cor, i go away for 2 days and come back to 2 BFP's and a possible 1! Wow, go you! Thats great!

Fettle, im so sorry to see your news though, dp and i very sad for your loss and wish you the very best for a happy and healthy 2007

Well im now 28 days overdue with neg tests, weird! Kinda given up worrying now as i dont know wots going on! Made apt for 8th jan in which i will be 6 days past next af if i dont come on. At least i'll be taken seriously then! Just hoping its the news i want........

Thanks guys - was starting to worry that I was a complete loon! xx

Good luck and fingers crossed XmassyCharlotte & MadameBRANDYBUTTERfly
KitKat - I felt like that too with ds!

so sorry i forgot to say congrats to those of you with bfps! well done! i WILL be joining you soon!

twix!.....don't stress out!!!! i completely freaked about most things when i was pg first time.....how will we do this?....how will i afford that?......what if i am a crap mum?....etc! it is natural to worry about such a major event in your life and you wouldn't be human if you didn't..........but....it will all be fine!!!!! ......i didnt worry at all second time round cos i knew how easy it all was and how much fun too! you will be fine sweetie!
