@Bwthany0903 I hadn’t thought of that - hopefully we’ll all be going through the same things at the same time, that’s a reassuring thought!
@stroan - I’d say that was a line - congrats!
@hannahetc I know how you feel - I’m super anxious after a chemical in September but took a second test today and it’s much clearer than the Christmas Day one so I’m starting to get tentatively excited. Fingers crossed these positives stick around for all of us 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Can I join in? I took a test on Christmas Eve night and again on Christmas Day first thing. After losing twins at 11weeks in the summer I’m a mix of emotions!

That is most certainly a line 😍 congrats! And do a test! I was the same and I got my BFP only way to find out xx

I was supposed to meet Aunt Flo on Christmas Eve. She’s still missing! But haven’t tested!

stroan · 27/12/2018 16:27

I’m pretty sure that’s a line?

@Bethany0903 @Teachermummy83 Congratualtions! Fantastic news. I am so anxious at the moment about my BFP and it's only been a few days! I'm so scared of something going wrong! I know there's nothing that I can do but doesn't make it easier! Trying to hide not drinking today was a little challenging but think I did ok!

stroan · 25/12/2018 20:53

Aww, a few more BFPs. Congratulations to you all, what a wonderful Christmas present!

I’ve just tested early (after swearing off testing early) and with an IC test (after swearing of ICs!). Hint of a faint line, not FMU and only an hour hold.

Why do I do it to myself?! Same thing happened last cycle on several days and then AF showed up.

Now need to try to hold off until at least the 27th to do a FRER.

@teachermummy83 that is incredible so happy for you. Love the tree in the background! "When a child is born" just came on the radio, love a Christmas baby x

Teachermummy83 · 25/12/2018 12:21

Kind of terrified to get excited in case it doesn’t work out again, but........I think we might have got a second line x

Merry Christmas to everyone on this app. Congratulations to everyone who got their Christmas surprise this year wishing you all happy, healthy and peaceful pregnancies and fingers crossed that everyone on the thread will have a baby by next Christmas.

Teachermummy83 · 24/12/2018 22:15

Evening ladies, can I ask how you all plot your test dates? I’m using the Ovia app which predicts AF or test day as tomorrow. Until September (and every month since then too) i’ve had a very regular cycle of 29-30 days but just noticed that my chemical in September, which Ovia shows as a 38 day cycle, has adjusted my average cycle to 32 days. I’m now wondering if I’m actually 2 days late??! What would you all say? Desperate to be pregnant so putting off testing as I’m terrified of a BFN! Can’t get hubbys hopes up only to dash them at Christmas! Thoughtson my crazy theory??!

Soexciting · 24/12/2018 19:18

Turns out the digital clear blue with weeks is quite sensitive.

usernamenamename · 24/12/2018 16:14

I got a BFP last Friday, it was 3 days before my period was due but I thought I was pregnant because my boobs started hurting 10 days before my period and I've never had that before! I tested on a clearblue early detection which was negative but then tried a clearblue digital and that said 'pregnant 1-2 weeks' 😮 I would have thought the one which states early detection would have picked it up Hmm

Soexciting · 24/12/2018 10:36

Amazing news @bethany0903 so glad you got your Xmas surprise.
Bring on more Christmas miracles!

Sorry to hear that @Soexciting. Good luck for next month.
@Bethany0903 how many dpo are you? I'm lucky my in laws never mention it really. I just hope I can get through Xmas and Boxing day without them noticing I'm not drinking... Good luck when you test x

Bethany0903 · 23/12/2018 18:06

So I've been sick at my mother in law's all afternoon which is awful but gave me a good reason to leave early haha! Currently in bed with a glass of water and toast! After all my in laws saying oh your not pregnant are you! 😏😂 Like I hope so! X

Good luck to everyone testing on Christmas day, that was me last year, and DS is 15 weeks old tomorrow, it was so nice having that news to share with my DH. I wrapped up the positive PT for him to unwrap, well it was inside a plastic bag first. I still have it saved, but gross really!

Manycatsandallthegin · 23/12/2018 15:40

@pastaallday i have another, but this bfn upset me more than i was expecting, so going to go out, drink and be merry, will wait until christmas day which is AF due day and test that morning. If nothing will just wait for AF to appear and try again next month! By peeing in a cup instead! Thanks for your help!

Soexciting · 23/12/2018 15:25

I am out AF came two days early.
I almost convinced myself that the three BFNs were cancelled out by the occasional nausea, boob changes and cramping but it was not to be.
So glad it came early and not on Christmas day. So happy for the positives on the thread and hope to see more before the end of the year Smile.
Off to the January bus I go!
