I already feel like im wishing Christmas away so I can poas!

Been having sensitive teeth and bleeind gums the last few days. Googled in and it seems to happen in the 2ww regardless of if you get af or bfp so might need to buy new toothpaste if this is going to happen every month!

Anyone else due around the same time?

When are you thinking of testing?
Im aiming for 28/29th if I can wait that long :)

The line definitely got darker so I am quite confident.
My first symptoms have been the same as last time so I had an inkling for a few days. The most obvious has been funny taste/sensation in my mouth, very dry mouth, some nausea and dizziness.

Good luck all!

I have been trying since feb and sadly mc in sep, no luck since. I have a teardrop amount of blood sorry tmi! But nothing else for the past hour, think af is on it way as too late for implantation bleeding :(

carolsdaughter · 29/12/2013 21:37

Ahh Princesscrystal I hope it happens soon for you, I can only imagine what it must feel like Sad

Littlemiss yes it's my first month of trying, I don't know where this impatience has arisen from, I need to chill out. I am so gonna look at getting some of those vitamins tho!

missmrsmummy · 29/12/2013 21:38

LittleMiss - I went on WellWoman first after depo as I heard they would regulate periods and they worked for that so now I'm on Pregnacare his&her conception and hopefully switch to Pregnacare soon!

Elektra83 · 29/12/2013 22:05

Hello all! Can I join please? AF is due on the 1st, we only managed to dtd once during my fertility window, at least I think it was then. Weirdly I have had white, creamy discharge after ovulation which has confused me somewhat (I remember seeing the normal discharge before that!)

I'm convinced I can't be pg (I'm not that lucky!) Although a small part of me thinks it would be a nice end to a crappy year! I've no idea when to test - asked hubby to get me the frer but he got the wrong one! So not sure if it's even worth testing with my internet cheapy!

I'm convinced I'm not pg, I just want to rule it out so that I can enjoy some wine on nye! Having said that I have kind of gone off booze a little bit!

missmrsmummy · 29/12/2013 22:27

Hi Elektra, you could try this:

www.countdowntopregnancy.com/tools/pregnancy_test_calculator.php

You should wait to test on day AF is due for most accurate result (but some can be quite accurate a few days early). Good luck!

LittleMissSunshine33 · 29/12/2013 23:02

Welcome Elektra! I feel that same that I'm not this time but I'm reading into any little niggle and feeling I'm having (although prob just too much good and wine over Xmas!)

Sorry about your mc Princess hope you are ok. Sad

Fingers crossed noitsachicken would be a great start to the new year!
Thanks for the WellWoman tip missmrs I will look into that and looked at that website it recommends I wait for a few more days but I'd really like to before NYE!! Who knows AF may arrive by then.

missmrsmummy · 29/12/2013 23:30

You're welcome, LittleMiss

I think AF is going to come for me :-( I feel bloated and have a heavy abdomen with a bit of cramping. Will still test in the morning but feeling it's going to be a 'no' this time!

missmrsmummy · 29/12/2013 23:31

Like you say LittleMiss, it'd be good to know before NYE. If it's BFN, bring on the prosecco!

pebble82 · 30/12/2013 00:22

missmrsmummy and Elektra I feel the same. AF is looming I think, still keeping those fingers crossed though for us. Elektra like you only managed to DTD once at the right time and that was 2days before OV so not massively hopeful.

I have bought a bottle of prosecco and a bottle of champagne for NYE though so as you say, bring it on and two fingers up to any AF/BFNs!

Think I'll test in the morning, then go shopping in the sales. Either to cheer me up or to eye up baby things...

noitsachicken · 30/12/2013 06:43

Anyone testing this morning? Ican't sleep, desparate for a wee but want to wait until DH is awake!

noitsachicken · 30/12/2013 06:51

Sorry Princess I hope the new year brings better news for you.

Welcome Elektra good luck, it only takes once!

If AF turns up for some of you then you can have a good NYE and start fresh in Jan!

I remembered another symptom - crazy vivid dreams, I had a very vivid dream about Peter Beale night before last! Should have realised then!

Haha I was awake at 4am and (sorry tmi) peed in a pot to keep my fmu. Did a asda line test and still a faint positive line was there. Gonna do the digital when DH wakes up ;-) x

Congrats chicken :-) here's to a happy and healthy 9 months xx

DH awake. Digital was negative. Confused as done an internet dip test yesterday and today, and an asda one today, all faint lines. Does this mean chemical pregnancy x

Giraffe, the digi's arent that sensitive. I would test with one again in a few days if I were you and you may get a result

OP posts:
noitsachicken · 30/12/2013 08:06

Thanks for the congrats! Its a bit nerve racking, worried how I will cope with nausea/exhaustion and a toddler, but I know plenty of people manage just fine.
Going to tell family on NYD.
Its weird that although I am an adult, married and have a DS I am still nervous to tell my parents!!

Its definitely worth testing again, only 30th today.
Good luck, there must be more positives on this thread xx

pebble82 · 30/12/2013 08:29

Congrats noitsachicken :)

I just got BFN :( as expected but feel like a lunatic willing there to be a line. Think next month is out due to DP being away with work at the wrong time.

LittleMissSunshine33 · 30/12/2013 10:04

So tempted to do one today but am due tomorrow so I'm going to wait...some how!
Congrats noitsachicken!!! How long were you trying?
Mrs Giraffee when are you due?

Sorry toots and pebbles still times to try!
Any news from missmrsmummy??

Elektra83 · 30/12/2013 11:14

Congratulations to all with bfps!

I tested this morning and got a bfn too pebbles. I told hubby and he was a little disappointed too! I'm not sure whether it's worth still testing tomorrow/Wednesday.

I am hoping this will kick start us into trying properly in the new year!

toots123 · 30/12/2013 11:23

One more test tomorrow then I'll wait on af coming!

I think I want it to happen so much because we wont be trying again until February/March as we have our holiday booked to orlando and I want us both to enjoy it. And it will help with my work situation. But if it happened this month there would be nothing I could have done but been happy :)

Oh well, its still early days for us anyway
