Hi there, AF is due the 23rd, going to text christmas eve morning.
Does anyone want to chat along the way?
Got a busy week visiting friends and festive activities to keep my mind off it as I'm an utter POAS addict 👀

I am 8 DPO today 😬 so nervous to test this month with potential to be either an amazing Christmas present or a miserable day with a BFN 😆 This is cycle number 9 trying for me so fully expect another BFN but trying to hold onto a little hope 🤞🏻No obvious symptoms for me at the moment.

Trying to decide whether to test on Xmas eve or Xmas morning…?!

@Butterflygirl23 okay you’ve influenced me, I’m going to get some tests!!

Have I? 🙈 do it and let us know! Do you have any symptoms?

@Butterflygirl23 okay you’ve influenced me, I’m going to get some tests!!

Joining! AF due on Christmas day but happy to test a day early on Christmas eve! Will be using the easy@home test strips rather than the precious FR test though...

@Butterflygirl23 my app says I’m 8 dpo today so earliest I can test is Weds. over the past few days I’ve been having intermittent spotting though, a very very very faint light brown mucus so could be a sign that AF is on her way early. I’ve just had my Mirena Coil taken out so I think my hormones are still getting regulated. When will you start testing?

It's really hard not to test isn't it, I've just brought another 2 tests 🙈

Milamight · 19/12/2022 11:07

I'm really struggling not to test! I might test Wednesday,,2 dats before im due. When everyone else planning on testing xx

doughyparton · 19/12/2022 10:08

@Butterflygirl23 *testing again! Just remembered you tested yesterday!

@Butterflygirl23 how many DPO are you?

I think I'm 9 today so I'm still feeling hopefully. What about you?

doughyparton · 19/12/2022 09:47

@Butterflygirl23 how many DPO are you?

doughyparton · 19/12/2022 09:47

@Butterflygirl23 haha, this made me chuckle a bit! So many times I thought AF was coming because of cramps but turns out I was just gassy!

I feel like I’m coming down with something today, feels a lot like a cold. Checked my app and turns out I’m only 8DPO so still a ways before I can do a reliable test. I’m so impatient.

Butterflygirl23 · 19/12/2022 08:31

I think the cramps was me just need the loo🙈 how is everyone?

Butterflygirl23 · 19/12/2022 06:52

I'm technically due tomorrow but last cycle I started on day 27 so could be today. I've taken a test and obviously BFN! I feel like I've got mild cramps this morning so it's probably af on the way

Maxime34 · 18/12/2022 19:31

I'm also due around the 28th week hope this is a lucky thread. Good luck everyone!

Matildahoney · 18/12/2022 18:58

Due 28th so I'm debating testing early. But in two minds, might ruin Christmas and it's the only thing I want!!

doughyparton · 18/12/2022 18:50

@Butterflygirl23 still suuuper early so I wouldn’t read too much into it. I think people say to wait til 10-12dpo to test for a more reliable result but who’s that patient?

Butterflygirl23 · 18/12/2022 17:52

Well I'm tested and it's negative il re test tomorrow, I don't even know how my days I'm po that's my problem, I think I'm only 8

doughyparton · 18/12/2022 17:11

@PP82 I hadn’t even thought about the blue cheese embargo if a BFP appears!

AF due 25th for me but don't wanna test on Christmas day lol. Christmas eve instead!

Me too! For various reasons think it's unlikely to have happened this month. (I'm nearly 41, only 2nd month of trying, 1st month with ovulation sticks which didn't show a peak although a hectic week meant I wasn't testing as much as I should or always at the right times of day, due to aforementioned hectic week only managed to DTD twice during fertile window, night before and morning of what should have been my ovulation day.) However definitely testing on NYE so I can treat myself to a festive glass of bubbly assuming negative. And maybe even a little port and Stilton. And of course hoping for a Christmas miracle.

Awwwh what a nice Christmas surprise that would be! Fingers crossed everyone :)

doughyparton · 18/12/2022 14:11

@Butterflygirl23 everything is crossed for you! Keep us updated. Sending you all the good vibes xx

doughyparton · 18/12/2022 09:16

@Butterflygirl23 yes do it!! I’m not due til Boxing Day so I can’t really early test til 21st but I might just do it Christmas Eve so I can ruin Christmas 😂

what test will you buy and are you gonna do it today?

@doughyparton I've just brought 2 early pregnancy ones from savers only cheap ones. I'm going to test later then tomorrow

Anewhoo · 18/12/2022 11:15

I’m due 23rd too, and mostly for that reason we decided to start trying in January instead! Good luck, and if it doesn’t happen this month I’ll be joining you ttc in Jan!

Stillwinston · 18/12/2022 11:13

Good luck @Butterflygirl23 let us know how you get on 🤞

Stillwinston · 18/12/2022 11:11

@doughyparton i'm really trying not to symptom spot this time as I've been driving myself crazy every month convincing myself I'm pregnant. Also, the FRER tests have been awful recently and I've had indent lines on every single test I've done so that hasn't helped either 😫
