Sazzle sounds like a great plan!!! Awh 3 that's a lovely age to enjoy Christmas!! Will be a wonderful time whatever the result I'm sure of it! :)

I'm just hanging around here in the Christmas spirit to see all the festive bfp's! Hoping yours is defo one of them!!!!

mumtoacub · 17/12/2013 13:01

Hey everyone I haven't been about a while, felt I needed a break from all thing conception related!!! Last night I got my bfp not sure whether to believe it. Got it at 3am on a 50p freedom cheapie terrified of confirming in case the cheapie is rubbish and gave me a false result. Just now excited and happy and want to live in the belief I am, to all those with bfps that I missed congrats!!! To all those waiting, fingers crossed and for all those on jan bus it won't be long I'm sure x

DearDinah · 17/12/2013 13:19

I think i'm back in the running, convinced i wasn't ovulating, but bought a CBFM and on saturday (CD23) got a peak then a positive on a cheapie ov test, so hopped under the sheets to take full advantage! Fingers crossed!
Today and yesterday I feel incredibly dizzy, every time i stand up I think i'm going to fall down! Is this usual after ovulating? I'm not convinced I have till now (cycle 6).
Anyway crossing everything for a BFP before (unlikely) or after Christmas!

DearDinah · 17/12/2013 13:20

Congrats mumtoacub Thanks

sazzlehopes · 17/12/2013 13:27

Yay! Mumtoacub - fantastic news...i'm sure your cheapy is ok - i'd confirm on something else though to make you feel better - i'm really confident that you pay money for a name/brand fancy diggie element but really they are all pretty much the same. But as they say a line is a line!!!
If you feel like it, please share your details! Xmas Grin

Witch25 · 17/12/2013 14:11

Well poas again today and got a bfn. I am on cd35 of a normally 28-30 day cycle. It was a bfn yesterday too. What could be going on? They are tesco tests because I wanted to spend the big bucks on the digi which would be the pee soaked present. So now I'm wondering is it because they are tesco that it's not showing. I used fmu too this morning so I thought it would be accurate. Any advise ladies before I go mad worrying!

PinkHat1 · 17/12/2013 14:25

Just catching up on posts (VERY quiet in the office today) Congrats mamatocub! Great news! Any more BFPs I've missed?

Does anyone here does the daily temp? If so, for how long and also have you worked out what day you ovulate?

Boosk · 17/12/2013 14:30

yes please Sazzle!

Af/bfp due 25th. Also ttc #1 cycle 1.

anything else?

SoMuchFruit · 17/12/2013 14:31

Congrats Mumtoacub! Brill

Mama your FestiveShagathon sounds just the thing Grin

Just thought I'd update before I brave the winds and go for a walk with DS and puppy.

Went to the Drs again this morning clutching my FMU. Duly dripped onto test. 5 mins later, line. Slightly stronger than last nights efforts and came up faster. Still fairly faint but Doc seemed happier with this test but we are reserving judgement until bloods return tomo sometime.

He called last night to say that the 2nd test he had done (clear then fading to faint line)had come up stronger and very obvious after about 40mins. God knows what all this is about.

Anyway, we'll wait and have a butchers at the bloods. Hopefully tomo but maybe on Thurs morning. Seems a long time to wait but encouraged by Dr saying this morning that'd he'd consider this mornings' line 'Pregnant' ..

Sleepingstarsmommy · 17/12/2013 14:51

Congrats mumtoacub!!

Witch - I don't get a BFP until about 4 days after AF was due in my last pregnancy.

As for me Im now on cd19 of a usually 28 day cycle. Didnt get a smiley on my opks but think I had some ovulation pain on Friday although I am overanalysing every twinge This has happened before (have just recently learnt I shouldnt be using fmu) and got a bfp so not overly bothered by this.

My dtdathon finished last night after managing every night from cd9 (dh looks exhausted poor soul haha). So now Im counting down to POAS which I will begin on Sun cd24 and 9 days after I think I ovulated. Have a 30 pack of Internet cheapies so will not feel guilty about this addiction. Just hoping by Christmas Day I get an early BFP (AF not actually due until the Fri).

mama31 · 17/12/2013 14:53

Sounds like great news SMF! Hope your bloods confirm your festive BFP!!! :)

Kittyrose1 · 17/12/2013 15:05

Hi all, AF the bitch has paid a visit to ruin my Christmas bfp!!! :( earlier than usual as well on cd25 (usual 27-32). Disappointed, but then this was only the first proper month ttc as last month was hit and miss and not otginannly planned to be ttc.
Anyway mulled wine and champers it is ..plus spoonfuls of Venos :)
Smf I hope you get the blood results quickly, sounds better news today

spinningirl10 · 17/12/2013 15:09

Mumtoacub, Congratulations to you Grin

Somuch....yay, it's sounds really positive for you!!

Sleeping....I have a bumper pack of ic, great when you're a poas addict!

Mama....lovin the festive shagathon!!!

Witch25 · 17/12/2013 15:12

Thanks Sleepingstarsmommy, I'll try and relax a bit! The pressure we put ourselves under with this ttc lark!

Kittyrose1 · 17/12/2013 15:27

Meant to add good luck everyone else with their Christmas BFPs, I'm off this bus and will be hopping on the January one xx

Kaliani · 17/12/2013 15:46

I am already on the list I think.

So. Shopping has arrived. 1 FRER and a two pack of tesco. Do I do the FR tomorrow. Or wait for Thursday. Or do the tesco one tomorrow and save FR? Ah, why am I obsessing about peeing on a stick?

I almost fainted this afternoon. Was in a training course, stood up and sat back down again with a bump!

laravh · 17/12/2013 15:53

Ahhh SMF, that certainly sounds more positive! Hope your bloods also confirm your BFP! Must be awful having it hanging there but a little out of reach! Good luck to you!
Witch- sorry that AF got you, she's a horrid little bitch! But hopefully you can enjoy some Xmas bevvies!

OP posts:
spinningirl10 · 17/12/2013 15:54

Kitty, sorry af had arrived, good luck on the Jan bus and enjoy some mulled wineGrin

Kalinani....how many dpo are you?

I've just worked out that when I got my bfp before I was probably 13dpo!!! I had thought I was 10 days from my app but I wasn't using opks then so really had no idea!! I'm only 11 dpo now so maybe I am too early! Hmmm or am I just clutching at straws?!!!

akachan · 17/12/2013 16:18

Hi all, I, like Kitty, have had my Christmas bfp sabotaged!

AF got me today on CD 26, normally I'm around 30. Oh well, off to January bus for me. Good luck still to test people!

toots123 · 17/12/2013 17:15

Hi all.
Room for me to join?
Toots123 ttc#1 cycle 1
Had positive opk on sunday so probably in tje 2ww or will be soon

Af due around 31st Dec but not overly sure as im not sure what my cycle will be like now im off the pill
Not sure what to do about the big NY eve party we are going to. Cant get away with taking the car as its a short taxi journey from my parents! And I think I'll just take it easy on xmas day just in case ;)

HollyBen · 17/12/2013 17:33

Off out for another Christmas night tonight. very tired after a late night and early morning (thanks DD) and cannot really be bothered. These are usually the best ones though Xmas Smile

Sounds promising SMF tentative yeah and congratulations!!! Keep us posted.

Can't keep up with the BFPs so congratulations everyone else. Sorry to those that AF has got.

So I think I am officially in the 2ww. In the mammoth wait for AF after my MC I was beginning to wonder whether I'd ever get here. It has been a crappy year for us so fx for a bit of positive news before the new year. Off to eat something before the night out preparations begin Wine

Kaliani · 17/12/2013 17:41

I'm not 100% when I ovulated. I got a sharp pain in my right side on Dec 7th so I'm taking that as ovulation, making me 10 days dpo x

spinningirl10 · 17/12/2013 18:42

Ooh Kaliani, I will have a poas companion tomorrow then!!

I would use the most sensitive but I don't know which one that would be, do they say on the box?

spinningirl10 · 17/12/2013 18:43

Welcome Toots....good luck Grin

HollyBen....have fun tonightGrin
