Ive had no symptoms really other than I noticed a tiny growth in my boobs fri night and had a head ache which I never get headaches! And mild cramps over the past few days!

CallingAllEngels · 22/12/2013 12:44

I have a feeling ladies.....I have been feeling nauseous all day and the only times I've ever felty like this have been when I was pg.

Just poas but bfn - but wasn't fmu and AF isn't due till Friday.

Going to wait till Christmas morning now and pick up some FRER.

sazzlehopes · 22/12/2013 13:20

Thanks for the deets baby-awwww what a wonderful early Xmas pressie!
Calling - fx the signs are good and you are just a bit early from testing...
Yes bex i'll leave it now until Xmas eve to test again with a FRER I have stashed away!! I'm feeling that the ic was a bit of a sign though and not getting my hopes up too high about it being positive....

Boosk · 22/12/2013 13:23

Good sign Calling. FX for Christmas morning for you.

Mild cramping continues here. So barely there at times that I think I'm imagining, or maybe I get it every month before AF but don't usually notice. I'm hyper-aware of every twinge!

Bring on the poas party Brew Biscuit Brew Biscuit

Aisha18 · 22/12/2013 13:31

Hi girls, congratulations to the new BFPs, I haven't read through all as in on holiday so not good Internet. I was just wondering if anyone who has been pregnant or is suffered heartburn/stomach acid/gas...I never have stomach problems and last 2 day have really noticed acid feeling, specially when hungry...also slightly sore boobs in the evenings (am I imagining this?!) anyway I thought no chance of BFP this cycle as dh away on ov day and could only dtd up to 3 days pre ov. But who knows. Hope everyone looking forward to Christmas and I can't wait to see who gets a Christmas BFP Smile

CallingAllEngels · 22/12/2013 13:33

It would be a blooming mirace if I was pg since we only dtd once (cd 14) as we were waiting for all clear from hospital (had appt cd15 and was told still to wait) so don't think drs will be too pleased with me.

Even though HCG wasn't 0, I had already had period and a BFN the week before.

fx for all of us who are testing this week!

Ready for the poas party though may not be posting much this week as away in UK for Christmas (but will def let you all know if I poas!).

Honeybear30 · 22/12/2013 13:34

Hi everyone! Sorry you got a bfn bex but like everyone has said there is still time.

I have resided myself to the fact that I really don't think I'm pg. I just don't think this month was our month. I think I got confused with my dates as well as I started counting this cycle when af had kind of started but it wasn't full flow. Is that wrong? Wondering if anyone can advise. Sorry if tmi but should you count from the first day of full red flow? If so then af is due on the 25th for me and not the 23rd. I wanted to test the 24th. Think I still will because I don't want to face a bfn on Xmas day and we are meant to be having pate with dinner which I know I can't have if I'm pg. I really feel like I'm not though. All my 'symptoms' are so minor that I don't think they are anything at all. Guess I'm just feeling a bit bit blue today about it and don't want to bother dh with my constant wondering am I am I not...and I can't tell anyone in rl! So glad this forum exists :)

spinningirl10 · 22/12/2013 13:35

Looking forward to the Christmas Eve poas party.....really keeping everything crossed for you ladies still waiting Grin

Boosk · 22/12/2013 14:12

Honey, day one should be first day of full flow as I understand it. AF due for me Christmas Day too. FX we get our bfps in Christmas Eve. x

omama · 22/12/2013 15:21

Hi ladies. Stepped off the bus a long time ago but fancied popping on for a quick ride hope thats ok?

Lots of new names so hoping most of the ladies who were on the same bus as me have already got their bfp [crosses fingers]

Been ttc#2 for 21 months now. Fell pg in May after 15months ttc but sadly had mmc in June. Had hoped we'd conceive fairly quickly post mc but 6 months on still nothing.

I'm now on cd34, have been having some niggly twinges & sore boobs, & af is late, but I poas cd29 & again yesterday cd33 both bfn. Yesterday I had a tiny smear of pinkish discharge on wiping, assumed af was starting, but 24hrs later still nothing. What do you make of that? AF usually comes between cd28-30, last month it was on cd25 so odd to be this late, but I don't really 'feel' pg iykwim? With ds I had fatigue, backache & metallic taste in mouth & got noneof that this time, so I hardly dare get my hopes up. Think maybe my body is playing cruel tricks on me Confused

Anyway hope some of you get your bfp this Christmas. We found out we were expecting ds on christmas eve 4 years ago & it was wonderful telling our families the lovely news on Christmas day.

Merry christmas everyone!!x

Gingerpanther27 · 22/12/2013 15:34

Think I'm out. Started spotting :( cd28 not full flow yet though so maybe possibly implantation bleed?

CallingAllEngels · 22/12/2013 15:51

Sorry Ginger.

aisha - I had heartburn when I was pg with DS but for me it wasn't till the last trimester.

fx for you omama.

Sleepingstarsmommy · 22/12/2013 17:43

Calling Once is all it takes.. I only managed to dtd twice last pregnancy for my BFP. That said I didn't chance it this time and completed a dtdathon.

Bex Think you're due on the 27th like me?? It's just too early for us but I can't resist POAS Im not going to get upset until the witch catches me then I'll cry my eyes out but blame it on the hormones

Congrats to baby and anyone else with a BFP it's so hard to keep up on my phone.

Symptom spotting like crazy here. Breasts are certainly tender, horrid acne and mood swings feel like I have regressed to my teenage years nausea is present intermittently, although it does seen worse after taking my pregnacare. All these could be promising but are more likely just the run up to AF.

BexBoo12 · 22/12/2013 18:48

Sleeping, I'm not actually due AF til 29th!!!! I'm a bit early aren't i!! But the app says I am due to test tomorrow?? Oh I don't know, I'm going to wait til Christmas Eve now. I couldn't eat my most favourite Yorkshire puddings with Sunday lunch today - they made me gagConfused and have also had very minor cramping today (could almost forget about it, it was that minor) and terrible gas!!!!!! Argh TMI!!!! Lol. 11dpo today and counting...

babyspice2501 · 22/12/2013 18:53

Thanks sleeping!! And yes sazzle! A perfect xmas pressie! :) xxx

spinningirl10 · 22/12/2013 18:59

Omama....sorry to hear about your mmc. It's tough if af is expected and you're still getting bfn, fx you get your bfp soon!

Sleeping and Bex....fx it's too early for you and you get a bfp in the next few days Grin

PinkHat1 · 22/12/2013 20:03

hollyben yay you'll be testing around the same time as me! Usually I'm ok for the 2ww but really does feel like time is going ever so slowly this time!!

Kaliani · 22/12/2013 20:04

Hi ladies, sorry I haven't been around, been working all hours this weekend as ridiculously short staffed at work.

Whoever asked, he's pleased he's not getting pee for xmas. I think he's actually more gutted about the bfn than I am lol

Thanks To those who got their bfp's, and fx to those still waiting

Those who the witch caught, see you on the jan bus! Woop for bubbles on Christmas Day and NYE parties!

Boosk · 22/12/2013 20:05

Sorry to hear about your mmc omama, fingers crossed for you that your late AF does become a festive bfp.

Ginger, fx it's just implantation spotting and AF stays away.

Hang in there Bex and Sleeping, the poas party is just days away. Smile

Princesscrystalx · 22/12/2013 20:07
