TTC DECEMBER 2021 🎅🏼

@keepingmyfingerscrossed cant wait to hear the results when you test, hoping for that BFP. 👶

@kidVV all sounds promising!! When are you going to test? I can test from Wednesday but I'm holding on until Saturday!

Hi all, checking in! Thanks @SantiagoSister for the new December thread. I got a bit confused by the December threads that were started on Nov 5th?!

Anyway, 1dpo here. Have first NHS hospital fertility phone call next week so not really expecting anything this month, reckon we are in for the long haul! DH had a potential Covid scare over my fertile window so we didn’t DTD as much as I’d hoped (as he wanted to social distance so I didn’t catch it 😣) anyway we still managed to buy a couple of lottery tickets, as we put it!

Actually my next fertile window is just before NYE so I’m in with two chances this month all being well 🎄

Hi all, this is my 2nd month ttc number 2. I have a little boy that is 2. The first time we fell pregnant, it was a real shock so this is really the first time trying to conceive. Didn’t realise so much went into it 😆

I am using ovulation sticks. Used them for the first time last month but wasn’t really sure what I was doing. My lines getting darker. Dtd night before last but feel the need to really get on it now. My little boys been hit with a dreaded sickness bug so hoping we all don’t get it. Keeping everything crossed. Best of luck to everyone

Hello, can anyone explain whats happening to me. Its my first time TTC. I have regular monthly periods. My last period was Nov 15. I had unprotected sex since Nov 21, my last was sex Nov 28. I know its too early to tell but I really want to get pregnant and I am not sure if im just imagining things. I have lower abdominal and back pains (like pre-menstual pain) I have white discharge, i feel bloated and whats really odd is that i suddenly dislike coffee. im a coffee lover and now I just cant make myself to drink it. I dont have nausea or vomiting but i always have headaches. i sometimes cry and then I am happy again and then I get sad again. Still waiting for the day i can finally get a test. T_T This waiting game is so hard.

@Keepingmyfingerscrossed yes defo with you on feeling my body doing things a bit differently this month! Best of luck to you keep me updated too when do you plan on testing?x

@Glago2017 oh I k ow this feeling! I feel we become more aware of any slightest change happening to us the more we read about them or notice them.. I overanalyse tbh 😅

@Keepingmyfingerscrossed fingers crossed this is a good sign for you. 🤞🤞
No not really had any symptoms, felt a bit heavy down the bottom of my stomach on and off but thats about it. I don't know if I have experienced that before and just not thought anything of it. 💁‍♀️ just gotta wait it out, hoping the xmas preparation will keep my mind busy. X

@Sjmc16 might be implantation?? Although it might be little early for you to know but you never k ow! Some women do get their bfps quite early! So keep a track of your symptoms and let us know. Hope your get your good news soon 😊🥰

@newjourney21and yes! Like you, I usually get symptoms like cramps, bloating a day or two before my periods. And mostly it starts with diarrhoea. This time it has been little different. I have had a bunch of things completely new to me in the whole tww period. But as I said, I’ll just wait and see what happens am hoping a bfp for you so keep me posted! 🙌🏻

Hi all, hope it’s okay to join, I’m new to posting here after been lurking for a while!

I’m 6 DPO and DTD around my peak (I’ve been using ovulation tests) I wasn’t hopeful as it’s our first go but for the past few days I’ve been bloated, got very faint cramps and the odd pinching feeling in my belly, I know it’s super early but hoping this is something!

Wishing you all the best Christmas gifts!

@Hayls07 i hope you get your Christmas present this year!! Let me know how you get on this month! I do have a positive feeling for you though! so keep me posted!

@newjourney21 oh that sounds promising! 🥰 keeping my fingers crossed for you!! My af is due in three days. I have been having some cramps but this tww has been little strange for me. I have had some unusual symptoms too like sore boobs and fatigue. Am trying hard not to symptom spot as I have been suffering from h pylori and the frustrating part is- my h pylori symptoms (since July or august) have been like pg symptoms. I ended up going to the gp for hcg beta and all came back negative. Found out h pylori in Oct end! Lol! Plus my periods have been very different (irregular, less flow and pinkish watery) for past two months. Had hcg beta again in Nov and negative!

So am just thinking it will happen if it has to this time. I do really hope though! 🥰 I am just not ready to test!

Hey girls! Had a break from November TTC as AF turned up early for me but I kept up with the thread and oh my goodness all the BFPs congrats guys! Been DTD alot the cycle 😂 currently 7dpo, not testing until next weekend, dont want to test too early like I always do! I hope we get our Christmas BFPs, I'm defo gonna try keep quiet and put it under the tree for OH if I get mine :)

@Keepingmyfingerscrossed I'm 7dpo with AF due on the 11th. Been having cramps and sore boobs the last couple of days, trying not to symptom spot but very difficult! I only usually get symptoms like these a day or two before AF so hoping it's something positive. How are you feeling today?

@Glago2017 my af is due in three days and am having pre periods like cramps.. I do have some unusual symptoms though. Sore boobs dry skin and itching, mild headaches, exhaustion.. but I am trying so hard not to give any attention to these as I do not want to get my hopes up! 🙈 pms or pregnant! It drives you crazy!!

How are you feeling by the way? Too early to say anything?

@Keepingmyfingerscrossed I am 5dpo so to early for symptoms. My AF is due on the 13th. What about u? X

@MummyBear405 my little one is 2 soon. Your little one is 1? Good luck for this month, I am using digital OPKs as well so fingers crossed xx

I have a 2 year old and can totally relate! It's really difficult to find the time time..i am approx 5/6 dpo atm..so still quite early!

@MummyBear405 we are also TTC #2. Our girl turned 1 on Monday. Its so hard with being tired and trying to find the time isn't it?! Or this this just me. Babies ruin your sex life 🤣

Anyone in their tww? When is your af due and how you feeling? Any symptoms?

@peanutbaba aww awesome! We're TTC #2 as well and this is our second cycle (I have a feeling we missed ovulation last month!). How old is your little one?

@Justkeepswimming20 we only manage once a day as we have a 1 year old so hoping that's enough!

Hi ladies, hope you don't mind me jumping on here  we are ttc baby #2 first cycle, I think cd10 today? @MummyBear405 I am due to ovulate on Tuesday (hopefully), so not too far away from you!

Also..those with BFP..have you noticed any change in your CM? If so how long after DTD..ty!

Fingers crossed for you all..i'm due AF on the 14th but ovulated around 28th nov, which is 2 days earlier than i expected.. I may start testing next week depending on how i feel..emotions are all over the place but may make an appt with the gp in the new yr if unsuccessful.. a bit of a personal question but do you guys DTD once a day around ovulation or more...

Hey all,

Hoping I can jump on this with you guys, although I'm awful at keeping up sometimes! I'm using OPKs this month and got my static smiley this morning, DTD last night and prepared DH for a busy weekend

Anyone else ovulating around this time? Hoping there's someone I can connect with to get through the TWW!
