Good luck victoria. really hope you get your bfp before then but at least things are moving if not. We are all coldy here too! Sad

Nordicmom · 07/12/2014 12:18

Aaarrrgh going crazy here officially at 13 dpo. Bfn on a db digi ( all I have left until later ) .cramps on and off all day yesterday again and now a bit no sign of af I wish I could just get it over with it can't stand this wishful thinking and then to be crushed again . In my loonacy at night took apart another digi to see inside ( must admit I've done this before when I had faint lines on a normal cb ) and there are lines on it but quite faint . Have been investigating on the net and they look like what others have had just before the test started saying 1-2 w pregnant . So f annoying I know how this is going to end anyway :(

MissMrsMummy · 07/12/2014 12:18

Sorry to those who are out

Good luck victoria for your appt but hopefully you will catch before you need to start injecting

Massive baby bomb this morning as we went to the shops and there was some kind of Santa fest with kids and babies everywhere. Poor DH looked like it ruined his day as he so wants a baby of our own. Hope we can have one soon! I want it so much for him even more than myself at the moment!

MissMrsMummy · 07/12/2014 12:19

nordic so frustrating... Cb digi are not that sensitive so can you get your hands on a frer today? If there is a feint line on a digi it will surely show on a frer!

Nordicmom · 07/12/2014 12:20

What the hell is wrong with my body ? Years ago I at least used to get further and had mc a few weeks later not that I want that to happen but now I'm just ending up with these cp and not getting past this point

Nordicmom · 07/12/2014 12:27

A thanks missmrsmummy , I'm alone at home sick been having a cold for last two weeks so not going out . I'm getting a delivery with cb normal tests later with groceries so I'll use that in the morning and I can get a frer later tomorrow . It's just a matter of time really expecting the bleeding to start any moment now anyway ...

DizzyNorthernBird · 07/12/2014 12:57

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!

Sorry to those leaving the bus already.

Feeling slightly rough today after office xmas party. Don't usually drink much these days but thought I'd make the most of it as the next party I go to will be slap bang in the middle of my fertile window. Does alcohol/hangovers affect your chances of conceiving? Silly question I know as best mate got upduffed as a result of drunken one night stand

Tree went up this morning and am in the middle of making Sunday roast so am feeling all festive today Xmas Smile

Treaclepie19 · 07/12/2014 13:03

Another one here feeling very slightly hungover.
Ugh...

MissMrsMummy · 07/12/2014 13:22

dizzy sounds like you had a good night! Pretty sure alcohol doesn't affect conception (if it's a night out for example) and certainly won't affect the bean as it doesn't implant straight away or start feeding from the mother for a while. I think regular drinking can slightly affect fertility so ppl are advised to cut down but a night out should be ok Grin

MissMrsMummy · 07/12/2014 13:24

By the way, DH doesn't want me to test until next weekend (when I could technically start poas on Tues at 10dpo) how am I going to wait???!!!

tessiegirl · 07/12/2014 13:27

Driving myself slightly crazy here - so I am 10DPO today and just did a One Step internet test (not using FMU) and it was a bfn...I know it is early and am clinging onto that fact.
The reasons I tested and got a little over excited is because my temps are still high this morning and on Friday (8DPO) I had pin pricks of spotting on the toilet paper which I didn't even mention on here as I have kept convincing myself not to be too hopeful that it could have been implantation.
Now feeling disappointed and mad at myself to even test...stupid stupid stupid!! Xmas Sad

Bovnydazzler · 07/12/2014 13:31

Loads of festive hugs for those who are having a rough time.
nordic sorry the wait and not knowing is driving you crazy, hope you get resolution soon, bfn limbo is the worst.

spinning sorry AF got you, been following these boards since June and you so deserve it to be your time soon, hope the Christmas DTD is fun. I wish Mother Nature would evenly distribute the BFPs so everyone waited the same time for theirs, everyone should just accept a 5 month TTC period rather than having to play the BFP roulette.

I'm on cd15, no +opk yet, I was hoping clomid would shorten my cycle, now getting more weary that it may not be that easy. It'll probably mean that I'll be in the 2ww over Xmas, can't work out whether that's better than a BFN!

Bovnydazzler · 07/12/2014 13:33

tessie i'd forget about the BFN, with an IC it's so unlikely to be as sensitive as a FRER (despite its claims) and at 10dpo, just forget you saw the BFN and keep fingers crossed for a couple of days.

tessiegirl · 07/12/2014 13:51

Thank you Bovny I feel better now I have written on here, funny isn't it? It is just so nice to get support from people going/been through the same feelings/experiences, although my DH is fantastic and sooooo patient.

I have got a couple of FRER in the cupboard but I have strictly told myself I am not to use them up unless AF still hasn't arrived in a couple of days or so...

I keep having that warm, wet gushy feeling (sorry tmi) down there which makes you think AF has arrived. Ugh. What will be will be...and in the meantime I shall go crazy in the corner waiting Xmas Confused

victoria401 · 07/12/2014 13:54

Sorry you're feeling crap Nordic been following your tough journey for a while.

Got baby bombed last night by a friend. Am pleased for her of course as she's been ttc #2 for well over a year with one loss. Still like a mini kick in the stomach though.

Put my tree up yesterday and wrapped everything I've bought. Kind of felt festive briefly but still have a child shaped hole. Couldn't even look sideways at the queue for Santa at the shopping centre earlier....

ShootTheMoon · 07/12/2014 14:10

Hi everyone, limbo land for lots of us right now! I am 6dpo and feeling so strange - deep, low cramping, almost like Braxton Hicks (madly) and a dragging sensation most of the time for the last two days, hiccoughing and occasional nausea. But mostly it's the weird cramping.

I full believe that my brain could be making all of this up, and obviously don't know until next week either way. But if TTC is going to be like this for a while I'm going to be a misery.

Good luck to everyone else!

hc899 · 07/12/2014 14:55

Ok everyone, need some advice here. 10 dpo and just done an frer and I'm sure I can see 2 lines. What do u think. Am shaking a bit here as don't want to get hopes up.

Ding dong merrily on BFP!! Step into Xmas with the BFP-laden December bus full of mince pies, santa hats, and festive treats (Thread 2)
tessiegirl · 07/12/2014 15:08

I can see it hc899! Mega exciting! Well done x

hc899 · 07/12/2014 15:14

The photo is pretty rubbish, looking at the test again now though I can definitely see two lines! AF not due till at least Thurs or Fri though so don't really know whether to believe it or not. ..oh my god!

tessiegirl · 07/12/2014 15:22

Ah, that is great! Can definitely see two lines! Do another test in a couple of days and line should be darker but looks like a positive!! Woohoo! Grin

victoria401 · 07/12/2014 15:30

I can see a line! X

Dozygirl · 07/12/2014 15:33

Thats definitely a line hc899!! Congratulations!!

tessie i'd leave it a couple more days and test. I did get positive on ic but it was at 11dpo, one day before af due. And it was faint. Fx for u

hc899 · 07/12/2014 15:36

Thanks everyone. Currently trying not to get too carried away with idea that the dream I've had since I was a little girl is coming true! Will test again in a couple of days and update you.
