BFPs popping out from Christmas crackers and stockings - The December bus is lining up to find bfps under that tree!

[barmybunting]

A new thread to find more room for those bfps under the tree everyone!

Old thread here:

Rose - sometimes it is just how these things work out! So you probably have no idea of details then? dtd or when you ov?! I guess your advice is to relax and stop trying!!!

Barmy - i can see a faint line. super faint but i deffo see something. Good luck with your next test tomorrow - will you crack open a diggie?!

Well actually Sazzles, I do! lol. Only because we actually only DTD once last month and I joked I should remember the date as I bet I'll get pregnant. It was on CD 12 and I think I OV on CD 14.

Amazing! Good work rose. I like hearing more relaxing dtd stories...it makes me feel less stressed about having to do it that very night even if your tired etc. Dtd should be fun and there's no point stressing over it all. Have you been trying for long? I couldn't find your stats when I looked.

I do think being relaxed is the trick but that is easier said than done I know!
This is DC#3 we've been ttc since July so about 5 months, I don't post here often incase someone I know finds me (paranoid or what? Haha) so that'll be why you can't see any stats or anything.
How long have you been ttc? I hope it happens soon for you!

Congrats Rosehoney! fab news! Give us the stats! After our 6 day DTD marathon this month I am thinking we need to chill a bit next month! Apart from the stress levels I am worried I'm being too demanding of DHs little swimmers!

Fingers crossed Barmy x

Mama31 I think we will be POAS together if AF doesn't show. I'm also CD21 today and am determined not to test before Monday at earliest..... You may have to hold me back!

Thanks rose, no i understand the worry of someone knowing you! ttc for 12 months for no2...i was really stressed but feel weirdly relaxed recently. I'm hoping that will help! I have had a lot on with work and the like so hoping that with being less stressed and trying to relax then it'll all fall into place! I know i can do it, so just have to be patient, but as we all know that is easier said than done!
Congrats again though, hope your pregnancy is healthy x

Rose......that's amazing and just shows you only need one little swimmer!!

Congrats rose honey!

Barmy - there's definitely something there, you've made me really eager to POAS now... I might have to bring it forward to tomorrow morning! X

Congrats Barmy!!! I can definitely see a line!!! Told you girls I'm sticking around to see all your bfp's!!!! Very exciting, it's been a busy bus the past couple of days!!!
Well this is a symptom, I feel some how full in my public area if that makes sense. It feels different!!! And feeling a little sick now and again. X x

Barmy.....I can see a line too!!!

Yay, Congratulations

So exciting!!

Congratulations everyone who has successfully POAS today! I too would love to hear all the gory details...!

barmy that looks like a line to me!!! Test again tomorrow morning!

Congratulations on all the BFP's, such good news when i'm feeling decidedly down in the dumps. Sending you all
I set up a new thread and posted on here yday, but no response... anyone have experience of the following>>
I use cb digital dual hormone OPKs. This is my first month temping. I had 3 days of 'high' readings cd 12,13 + 14, then 'peak' reading cd15. However I have seen no clear temperature shift and my chart looks nothing like the sample ones if seen online. Massive jumps all over the place.
Can someone please offer some words of wisdom... Feeling very down and teary right now and convinced myself i'm not ovulating.
Thanks ladies

Congrats to those with new BFPs! I'm going a bit mental here with all these symptoms but no line (3 days early today maybe) and the newest one since yesterday is needing to pee all the time . Boobs are on and off , lingering burby nausea ( but I get that anyway sometimes ) , oh so tired (ditto), can't stand any smells and off coffee since last week ( decaf but just the smell is horrible ) and then there's this feeling in my lower back and some twinches and cramps in the front since last week . No blood or anything but I've never had implantation bleeding before either . Very confusing but I do feel negative since our history. I just want to know and to move on . I don't know how many times more I can do this to myself before going for IVF etc. I felt so exited to start to try again after a long time not doing it but now getting depressed after the first cycle... Well I guess very soon I will know .

I couldn't wait until the morning, just POAS and got a BFP!!!!!!! There is the clearest line ever! I'm not ashamed to say I've just had a good cry haha (with joy obviously) think I'm going to have to buy a digi now to double check! Xx

Hi Lara,

You poor thing. Sending hugs. Sorry if we missed your message. It's been so crazy on here lately. I know I am struggling to keep up.

With regard to temping, I'm a bit rusty. I temped religiously when I was TTC 5-6 years ago. As I remember, you need to be really good about doing it as soon as you wake...if you have a bad night or drink alcohol or are sick the chart can go wonky. Please don't start worrying you're not OVing just yet. It could be anything.

Hopefully someone else with more recent temping experience will be along shortly.

Good luck.

Sorry Lara. On my phone...so my conclusion is that I would go with your CBFM. Temping takes a little while to get to grip with...

Woohoo Mamma! So happy for you! Can't believe how lucky the thread has been so far!

ooooooo barmy and mammabear massive congratulations deffo crack open those digis tmrw!!!

So many bfps in one day whoop whoop

Nordic - fx that you're testing too early. It's awful being in limbo. You do just want to know one way or the other. I was talking about this the other day with DP, he said yes...it would be handy if your knees just went green or something. So much easier to tell then!

Mammabear.....congratulations!!!!!,

Yay another bfp on the December bus!!

Nordic....maybe it is too early for a bfp, your symptoms sound good, really hope you find out one way or the other soon.

Lara....I have never done the temp thing so I'm sorry but I can't help. I did ask about it last month but as my dp works shifts and is in and out at odd hours my sleep is often disturbed so I decided not to temp!

Hope someone comes along soon to shed more light on it for you

Mammabear!! Congrats! Is this early as according to your stats you thought bfp was due new years eve?!! So exciting though - please give us ALL the deets!

Lara - I'm afraid I can't help as I don't temp due to a ds waking me at all sorts of crazy hours! There are some girls on here that are pros so hopefully one will help you. But I wouldn't let a few days temp get you down - it could be anything, human error etc. You could still be ov - I'd give it a few months before panicking....

Congratulations mammabear!!!!

I can't believe how many BFPs there are on this bus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well we started TTC mid Nov really before I'd got a hang of how cycles work or anything like that! So I just assumed it would be the December ovulation that I'd be more likely to catch on!
Symptom wise I've had heightened sense of taste, slight nausea and dizziness and same as I think missv said, an odd full feeling in my very low abdomen. Like bloated but lower down than usual, but this may just be me trying to find symptoms to share now!

Decided I'm not going to tell DP and am going to surprise him for Christmas! Another nice thing is I just calculated my due date on a calculator (not sure how accurate it is) but the baby's due date is my grandad's birthday, I was extremely close to him and he died 2 years ago. It all feels meant to be!
Now just the horrendous 3 MONTH wait until I can tell family and friends!
