December Bus - Christmas Wishes

Hi all,

I’ve decided to take the plunge and make a December Bus. I know it’s still early in Nov but for those of us whose cycles fall early in the month it’ll be nice for us to have a new thread!

I’m 23
TTC #1
Cycle: 2

Had so many symptoms in October (unusual for my regular AF) so felt so disappointed when it wasn’t meant to be.

Anyway let’s hope December is our month and hope for that Christmas surprise! SmileHalloween GrinStar

Oh lookingatthestars how frustrating for you 😩 i was quietly hoping youd have got your static over the weekend.

My OPK is completely negative again now with no more fertile cm so officially in the 2ww. Think i will take it as it comes. I have xmas shopping to do and other things so hopefully my mind will be kept busy so i don’t do the obsessive testing lol

CD 26 here Confused I succumbed and bought a FRER and have stashed it at the back of a cupboard. Sitting on hands trying not to POAS!!! Blush I think I'm possibly 7 or 8 dpo. When is the earliest you can test!? If it doesn't work this month, I'll be ordering some OPKs.

LookingAtTheStars89 · 27/11/2017 09:22

Well! The only static I got this morning was from the bloody TV! Cd18 now and still stupid flashing smiley! I did a normal opk this morning and there was a faint line on that, I might try one again this afternoon.

Aph413 · 27/11/2017 00:27

Just about to enter my fertile week it appears. I started temping at the start of my cycle and no sign yet but the ic opks have started showing a faint line

LookingAtTheStars89 · 26/11/2017 23:57

@peterpanwendy Fingers crossed for you!

@nk1605 Lol I'm hoping for a static face tomorrow!

@Jfw82. Hi :-) and good luck.

@mamaiFifi Sorry flo arrived! Mines never been early, always late!

@RiverRose Good luck!

peterpanwendy · 26/11/2017 23:32

So my spotting has finished! Lasted about 48 hours very light very pink and only really when I wiped. Fingers and toes crossed that it's implantation and I have conceived!! This time next week I should know Shock

@mamaiFifi you should still be on the December Bus though! Fingers crossed this cycle is the one x

Jumping on...
TTC#2
Age 35
Cycle - 1
Chucked the cerazette packet out Friday so no idea when I'll be ovulating and so ordered some internet cheapies

mamaiFifi · 26/11/2017 19:49

@Babydreaming thanks for your reply. Literally an hour after posting period arrives 5 days early! Well I did have a 21 day cycle for a while then last month it last 27 days. So I thought I was back to normal. Nope Sad
I guess I will be still on this bus for the next 4 weeks Confused

louella99 · 26/11/2017 19:48

Welcome newest newcomers! @RiverRose lots of luck to you. @Trisk don't think there's a Jan bus yet. Next AF/BFP for me will be due 23rd Dec so may well be joining the January bus if we don't pull it off this month!

Going to do SMEP. Currently cd 4 so nearly there

nk1605 · 26/11/2017 19:43

@Gem173 good luck! I'm cd14 and still no positive so still dtd every other day. Here's hoping this plan works for us both!

Gem173 · 26/11/2017 19:17

@nk1605 right AF has finally wrapped up, have done two opks today. So on route to a positive!

Triskaidekaphilia · 26/11/2017 18:56

Hi everyone, I've been on the November bus but I'm out now and I wondered if there is a January bus yet as I won't be due til the start of Jan now.

RiverRose · 26/11/2017 18:24

Hi ladies, can I join?

Been away from the bus threads for a few months now.

Age: 28
Cycle: #20 (21? Lost count...)

We have had an IVF cycle this time so currently incubating 2 x 3 day old embryos. Hoping with everything we have that at least one sticks!

Good luck everyone Flowers

Babydreaming · 26/11/2017 17:38

Mama it’s possible to get symptoms that early but unlikely! The bean implants around day 6-10 post ovulation and after implantation starts producing HCG which is the hormone that makes you feel sick...it’s producing really tiny amounts for first few days but doubling every 48h. So maybe if you implanted early it’s possible?

mamaiFifi · 26/11/2017 16:49

Did anyone suffer from nausea early on like 5 daya before expected period?

LookingAtTheStars89 · 26/11/2017 14:10

@FruitandNutty. Yeah, I'm surprised I haven't got one with all of the baby making I've done lately lol. We use conceive plus too which makes it even more likely!

peterpanwendy · 26/11/2017 11:55

I think there are lots of us due AF/BFP next weekend, so exciting! I hope this week goes quickly for us all x

FruitandNutty · 26/11/2017 10:54

@LookingAtTheStars89 thanks for the reassurance. It’s all that bd’ing giving me the uti! Better pay off this month, I’m getting so impatient now and feel like we have done everything we could this month.. now for the tww!

heavenforbid · 26/11/2017 10:44

Morning! Hope everyone is having a good weekend. How exciting that lots of you are coming up to testing time soon - fingers cfosssd for lots of BFPs!

I think I ovulated yesterday which was the day Flo predicted so I wasn’t expecting it to be right, but we’ve been dtd every other day and then when my temp spiked this morning we did it again for good measure! Gonna keep an eye on my temps as I’m meant to be going for progesterone bloods a week after ovulation but as my cycles have been long/bit irregular I wasn’t sure when that would be, so hoping temp stays up so I can go for the bloods on the right day! (And just to know that I’m ovulating which would make me so happy as I’ve been worrying that I’m not with all these 42 day + cycles)

LookingAtTheStars89 · 26/11/2017 10:17

@FruitandNutty. Don't worry, I took antibiotics for a uti when I was ttc my daughter, I told him I was ttc and he said it would be fine and she's say in the back of the car now (I'm a passenger in the car by the way lol not driving!!)

FruitandNutty · 26/11/2017 10:11

@owlpatrol I think that as long as your temps stay above cover line then that’s a good sign even if they are going down! Fx for you.

I am worried today as I have a uti and just took Cephalexin. The doc said it’s fine to take while ttc but I am nervous that maybe it will kill off dh’s swimmers and possibly harm the egg/bean as I only ovulated 2 days ago... anyone know anything about this?

Babydreaming · 26/11/2017 10:07

I’m excited that some of us are getting to the testing stage...hopefully lots of BFPs on their way!!

Babydreaming · 26/11/2017 10:05

IM due on Tues 5th but I have engagement drinks on Sat 2nd so I’ll do a test that morning! If BFN I’ll drink as before I’ve had BFP by 10dpo (I appreciate that every pregnancy different but I think possibility low considering we only dtd once and it was first day of fertile period!)

LookingAtTheStars89 · 26/11/2017 10:02

Thanks everyone. I don't think I'd be as bad if I wasn't waiting for bloods to come back re hormones and thyroid. I'm worrying myself that there's an issue. I'm hoping I will get the results tomorrow.

@surreygirl1987 Yeah I have read the same things. I'm not telling as I'm not the best sleeper so I'm not sure how accurate it would be.

nk1605 · 26/11/2017 09:48

@LookingAtTheStars89 I didn't get a positive OPK until CD18 last month. So I probably didn't OV til CD19 or 20. So there is still hope!
