December babies ❄️☃️🧣🎊🌲

I've been having vivid dreams too. I dreamt I left my son to halls in uni and the carpet was covered in earwigs. More a nightmare really 😩

I had such a vivid dream last night that I did three pregnancy tests and they all had solid lines. This TTC business really mucks with your head!

@Charl881 xx will do the FRER Sunday.

@MrsGrealish that looks like a vvv faint line to me! Looks exactly like what I was getting on cheapies before I finally got my BFP last month (obviously didn’t end well but still shows cheapies can be accurate!)

@BiscuitLover3678 this happened to me once before. It was the last pregnancy. Nausea like 3 days before a bfp but it was much worse. I feel ok now just eating is s struggle. It's probably a tummy bug knowing my lunch nothing to do with this🙄

Yep will find out soon enough. DH is not being sympathetic enough 😡 I think his text read 'not again'

@BiscuitLover3678 it's still early don't give up yet ❤️

@Hebe9219 I feel so sick 🤢🤢🤢🤢

@MrsGrealish zoomed in I’m struggling but zoomed out I think I can!! All fingers crossed for you that line will be getting darker tomorrow 🤞🏻

I‘m 3 days before AF and couldn‘t be more negative 🥴

Second last cheapie can anyone else see a line? Only taken because I'm feeling 🤢

@darlingqueen avoid internet cheapie! I'm on a thread with a girl who did a negative cheapie 4 hours ago and a positive clear blue digi! I'm feeling 🤢 this morning, good sigh?😭

@MrsGrealish thanks so much for your reply! A couple days, you got it, hahah now to anxiously tap my fingers until time passes aha I have those cheapie tests from amazon but I only have 3 left so I definitely have to be conservative here maybe settle for Saturday night?
fingers crossed your test comes back a BFP this weekend!

@Charl881- Thanks! I think I'll go in the middle of your suggestion and Mrs Grealish and do Saturday night! I tried hard this month to cover all bases because this it the last month to try and get all our kids equally lined up 4 years apart. Not the end of the world if it doesn't happen but it would've been pretty cool.

@darlingqueen looking at your cycle day numbers/ dates I reckon you should test on 17th and then keep testing/ wait until AF. Good luck to you, definitely sounds like you had it covered.

@MrsGrealish yeah the digital ones definitely aren’t that sensitive! Keep us updated this weekend, will be keeping everything crossed for you.

@darlingqueen hi, you defo didn't need to use OPKs to track if you DTD every other day since day 12!
My advice is test every couple of days now easier said than done I know so maybe test again on Saturday? But use an FRER something really sensitive and good luck xx

Hey girls! I hope it's okay to jump in! This cycle is driving me crazy, and I could really use some conversation! We've been TTC since September. All my cycles were 28-30 and then last month I got a 32 which threw off all my numbers and I feel so much less confident with where ovulation is this month!
I had cramping on the 5th (CD16) and then left based cramping on the 9th (CD20) had another episode of cramps on the 12th (CD23) and have had sore AF breasts/nipples since yesterday...so I broke down and tested last night and of course it was negative haha
I don't use opks or any other method except tracking cramps because that USUALLY tells me when I ovulate, and this month they broke up into sections so I have no clue! We DTD every day or every other day from CD12 until now, so I got good coverage for this cycle, so now to just wait it out, but I have no clue how much longer I'm waiting!

With that limited information how would you girls interpret my cycle and where I might be? And when I should test again?!

TIA!

@Charl881 hey lovely,! I'm ok xx I didn't realise the threshold was 25 iu so doing the final FRER on Sunday AF due on Monday. I did a super dark OPK earlier so either AF due soon or it's positive 🙏. but at least somethings going on Xx I'm soo bloated it's unreal

@MrsGrealish I would expect a digital to show positive until at least the day AF is due to fingers crossed you’re still in with a chance! When is it you’re due on? I’m so frustrated in your behalf, sure I saw a faint line on the other one.

@Olivia88 congratulations! Apparently cramps can be really normal in the early stages of your pregnancy, something about the uterus adjusting. But definitely worth contacting your early pregnancy unit with any concerns. There are some December due date threads over on the birth clubs area, might help to talk to others with similar concerns / anxieties. Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy!

Can I jump in on this thread? First time posting anything! We've been ttc for two years, seriously about 1 (no other children) and I'm tracking and pretty sure my ovulation date was 20 March...well in the stress of moving house I completely forgot about my tww and just realised last night AF is late.

So I took two tests last night and got some lines - BUT I'm cramping so badly I'm worried it's just chemical or I've done something wrong. I'm in a lot of pain and have been for a few days so I think I'm just looking for reassurance or something

10dpo and a digital says bfn. Crampy and won't be testing again if by some miracle period is late. Nothing like a digital to bring u down to earth with a thud xx
