Have a breastfed baby or toddler? Why not try for another one?! Who needs sleep anyway?

Come join us whether you are waiting for your first period in months or are are a few months into trying.

Merry christmas xxx

Ps, I have read apart frm nipple soreness if you get through implantation bf has no real effect on preg.

Jakeyblueblue · 21/12/2012 08:09

Hurray!!!! GrinGrinGrin
Thrilled for you jenni. Smile
Lets hope for more Xmas bfp's!
There shouldn't be any effect on the Preg from the bf, it's more the other way around. As in, the milk supply sometimes drops and nipples get sore.
What lovely news to wake up to!............ Of and I'm buying a moon up Smile

jennimoo · 21/12/2012 08:16

Thank you!
I would recommend everyone quits testing and just asks jakey, as she was spot on ;)

RainbowsFriend · 21/12/2012 12:48

OMG BFP! Here too. Well more like a FSP (faint skinny positive). But there is a line. Really didnt expect it. 12dpo. Didnt even know if I ovulated. been eating like a horse all week. Temp dip must have been ovulation. Please stick please stick little one.

jennimoo · 22/12/2012 08:03

Yay! Fab news zoon! With DD I only got super faint line at 12dpo. Have you got a digital? I have a spare here you can have ;)

RainbowsFriend · 22/12/2012 09:17

Wow! Congrats all round! :)

OneLittleToddlingTerror · 22/12/2012 11:07

It's xmas! Maybe Santa will bring more BFP Wine

Jakeyblueblue · 22/12/2012 12:00

Grin congrats zoon! What lovely news!
Hope these xmas bfp's keep coming!
8dpo here. I will test Xmas day if no AF before. If LP is usual pathetic self it will be Monday when she shows.
Feel no different to any other month. Am not hopeful at all Sad

CorporeSarnie · 22/12/2012 14:24

wow! Thanks for your welcomes, & 2 BFPs already! Exciting on here.
Am growing keener on the idea of night weaning as a route to sorting hormones out, at mo dd sleeps in her own room until 1st middle-of-night feed then I get lazy and bring her in with me... usually she has 2 night feeds, but in last week she's been eating for Britain and i've been losing count. dh has suggested he could sleep on mattress in her room over xmas break until we break the habit. I went away for 1 night last week and she managed fine without me, so I know it is at least partially habit, but it doesn't make it easy to quit.
Anyways, enough of my minor woes! Bfp-mas continueth!

Zoon · 22/12/2012 16:12

Thanks everybody! And thanks Jenny. I am using the super sensitive internet cheapies. In Dublin now for xmas and I packed enough to test each day, because I have an addiction to poas!!! The line was definite and I guess tomorrow should be stronger. I dont quite believe it yet tho.

Zoon · 22/12/2012 16:14

Come on jakey, lets make it a hat trick!

BigBoPeep · 22/12/2012 20:34

congrats to the BFPs! I'm not jealous, oh no.... Grin

Jakeyblueblue · 22/12/2012 22:11

No nor me. Envy

Zoon · 23/12/2012 09:40

The line is fainter today so maybe not good news after all.

OneLittleToddlingTerror · 23/12/2012 10:13

But it's still there isnt it? Are you using a cheapo or an expensive digital one?

Jakeyblueblue · 23/12/2012 10:15

Also pee may be more diluted for some reason.
I'd go buy a digital. There's no disputing them. Smile

BigBoPeep · 23/12/2012 17:15

a friend announced she was preg with her second today, AND a random woman next to me in the coffee shop today Envy

OneLittleToddlingTerror · 23/12/2012 19:04

Facebook is evil with lots of scan pictures Envy

Jakeyblueblue · 23/12/2012 21:18

Well I'm 9 dpo today. Can deduct two things from this.

  1. I must have ovulated on the Friday as was not entirely sure that it wasn't the Thursday. If it had of been the Thursday then I would have had AF today. This also means I would have dtd just in time as we did it tues am and thurs night.
  2. If I don't get AF tmrw, I'm either Preg or the b6 has worked and LP has lengthened.

Having deducted those two useless pieces of info, I've had some cramps this evening. Am thinking AF will be here tmrw. Sad

On the Envy front, my pregnant and bf friend is now 13 weeks and successfully totally weaned the 12 month old last week with no fuss or trauma or tears. How Envy am I?

Zoon, are you ok? Haven't heard back from you. Have been thinking about you today. Smile

CorporeSarnie · 23/12/2012 22:30

Jakey, hope you have good news soon, feeling lucky so far no-one from our baby groups, just a couple of friends' new babies arrived/arriving soon. So have thus far managed to contain my preggo Envy. But weaning Envy, that I have in spades!
Lovely family day today, swimming then a bike ride and play in park. DD wouldn't eat her tea though so I start the night shift knowing there's no chance of her sleeping thru.

Jakeyblueblue · 24/12/2012 07:31

Cramps. Bfn. No AF yet but never the less merry fg Christmas. Grrrrrrrr Sad
