All we want for Christmas is our BFP! All aboard the December Bus...

Starting the boarding for the December Bus...

My history if anyone is interested:-

DS1 in October 2012. Started ttc for dc2 last September. Got BFP in the November but MC'd at 5 weeks.
Fast forward to July, got another bfp. Started bleeding on August Bank Holiday weekend and found out we had MMC at 11 weeks. Had ERPC a week later. 5 weeks later after still getting positive hpts, found out the ERPC had been completely unsuccessful and had to have whole bloody procedure again.

Anyway. Now got my first proper period after all the above bullshit and hoping for bfp on or before the 18th December

Ladies I have a CM question (and sorry if it's TMI). My fertile window was last week and had EWCM as expected. Took an OPK last Thursday (which was the end of my predicted fertile window) and got a negative. Took another OPK this morning and was also negative. But this afternoon I've had quite a lot of EWCM again and I don't understand why. Have any of you ever had this?

AF still late Hmm no tests left in the house (apart from frers, but am almost certainly not pg so no need to waste those). Strange thing was my temp crashed this morning )as expected) but it's since risen back to where it was! Stupid body.

Massive congrats serious! I bet it feels like an early Christmas present getting your BFP now Smile

GuessHowMuch · 01/12/2015 18:07

I've done a silly and annoying thing! I caved and wanted to test but didn't want to use the FRER I have in. Someone told me you can test with an OPK so I peed and its come up quite strong but not a positive as an OPK. Anyone have any thoughts on whether this is something to get excited about? AF due today and I've got normal AF symptoms. Will FRER in the morning but don't want to get my hopes up if the OPK thing isn't a thing. Good luck to any near pee'ers!

Guess that's exciting! Yes I've seen it with my own eyes - a faint positive opk can mean +ve hpt! I wouldn't be able to wait until tomorrow morning myself but understand that FRERs are previous do maybe save it til tomoz? Good luck and do post a pic of the FRER for our perusal Smile

Guess I'm planning on doing the same with my OPK as I have no hpts left apart from frers! Fx!

GuessHowMuch · 01/12/2015 19:00

Definite BFN on a FRER so just awaiting AF now :( Oh well - wine and tasty treats over Christmas to look forward to. I get to stay on the Dec bus as long as AF arrives soon as next testing date would be around Boxing Day. Thanks for the link Celen and good luck queen

FineKnacksForLadies · 01/12/2015 19:19

Bug: Forgive me if this is waaay TMI, but are you sure it's CM and not just vaginal? If I'm really turned on in the mood to DTD then it can look/feel similar iyswim? Just a thought...

GuessHowMuch · 01/12/2015 19:19

Fertility Friend says 12DPO. Pretty sure I'm out - not sure what the freak OPK was Confused

Keep us updated Guess, wouldn't want to give false hope but 12 dpo is still v early days and if it's not fmu then it may not be strong enough to show yet? Keeping fingers crossed for you x

Hey sodasoda, getting any AF signs? X

OwlinaTree · 01/12/2015 20:48

Hey scottishgirl we are ETD twins Grin

Kellz92 · 01/12/2015 20:56

Celen i was very busy this afternoon lol, unfortunately hubby works night but think we have done enough baby dancing, just the wait now! Xx

ScottishGirlx · 01/12/2015 21:03

Oooh that's exciting Owlina - we can be test buddies! Wink

Pugmummy87 · 01/12/2015 21:24

Congrats Serious!

Pretty sure I'm out this month. AF cramps and spotting today, feeling short tempered and weepy and a spot has made its ugly appearance on my nose (I never get spots other than when it's AF time). Poas today and bfn.

Just waiting for AF to make her grand entrance , probably tomorrow morning. I'm not too upset, this is the 2nd cycle in a row where my cycle has been bang on 31 days (providing AF turns up tomorrow) and the charting has helped me to see when I am fertile so hopefully next month. Might get a bfp for my birthday! (Jan 2nd)

Just need to dtd more. DH suffers with depression and anxiety and he's medication sadly has a negative affect on his sex drive. So putting pressure on him doesn't help. Any tips?

Bugmuncher · 01/12/2015 21:56

Fine - I'm pretty sure it wasn't that. I was at work so that's a mood killer! I wonder if maybe I'm going to get AF early.

Celen - I'm not sure exactly when I OV but I think I'm 7-10 days DPO

queenoftheworld93 · 01/12/2015 21:59

Got an almost positive on OPK- still feels pointless testing with a frer tonight though. Am thinking I will tomorrow if still no AF. Is FMU supposed to be better?

queenoftheworld93 · 01/12/2015 22:00

Bugmuncher I've had stretchy clear cm all week on and off! Google says its normal. Currently late so I will let you know if it is an AF or pg symptom!

OwlinaTree · 01/12/2015 22:34

I'm not symptom spotting at all, no not Me Grin, but I am spotty and a bit constipated/having the trots (sorry tmi)

Could these be signs? Approx 7dpo?

Bugmuncher · 01/12/2015 22:39

Ah Queen I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! When will you be testing?

queenoftheworld93 · 01/12/2015 22:48

I'm thinking tomorrow evening :)

Owlinatree not sure! Check out the countdown to pregnancy website, it's excellent for symptom info.

Sodasoda · 01/12/2015 22:51

hanste I had a big temp drop this morning so pretty sure AF will arrive tomorrow Sad Feeling pretty gutted. Any signs for you? Xx
