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

Will have a look queen, thanks

Temp still up Confused 16dpo now. Should I POAS or wait?

Havetobecrazytolivehere · 02/12/2015 07:00

Thanks for your support. We don't know how far along I was as I hadn't had a period since I came off the pill but when I tested the CB digi put me at 3-4 wks and the bleeding was a few weeks after that so maybe 5wks.

Feeling a big angry and sad but better to know now, I knew something didn't feel right. Not sure if ready to try again so just going to enjoy Xmas and remind myself how lucky I am to have 3 wonderful dcs already. Dr said I will get AF at some point this month. Good luck to all those testing this month.

queen, fmu is the best time to pee as it's the strongest to show the pregnancy hormone (sorry just going back through last nights posts).

crazy Flowers Sounds like s good decision, have a fab Xmas and good luck trying in the new year.

Sodasoda, sorry to hear that x
I don't temp so I wouldn't know, I just feel incredibly bloated and have done for days and boobs really sore, but that could mean anything 😁 I resisted the urge to test, somehow coming on my period is a more gentle let down than taking a test! It is really stupid but if I'm not pregnant this month I'll be extremely disappointed, I've let my hopes get too high, and a few days ago I was certain I was pregnant, but you can't ever really know for certain until you get that BFP.... Fingers crossed for both of us. And if it's not our month this month, the oh well. Apparently September babies do better at school x

BindiBarbarella · 02/12/2015 11:28

I'm out - the witch got me yesterday as I was POAS. Fuck. I think symptom spotting is a good thing as the symptoms of AF are quite similar to BFP in the early days. Now I have a record of what happens to my body around that time I will (hopefully) not drive myself mad next month when it happens again. I'll just know it's normal for me IYSWIM. I had stabby, pricky pains for 5 days before AF arrived this month so I was sure I was PG. I was also nauseous for a few mornings too. Ah well. Updated stats:

Bindi
30
TTC #2
Cycle 4
CD 2
ETD 31st

Congrats to all the BFPs - it's so lovely to see them coming in! Wishing you all very boring pregnancies :)

Good luck to all waiting to test - baby dust to all of you!!

Sodasoda · 02/12/2015 11:31

hanste - my temp has gone up again this morning! So no idea what's going on! Creamy CM but no AF. No other symptoms to speak of. Boobs feel full and heavy but they often do before AF. Felt a bit crampy earlier but not now. Still planning on not testing unless AF doesn't show tomorrow and will then test on Friday by which point I'll be 15dpo. Your symptoms sound promising. Hold off on testing and test with me Friday! xx

Sorry to hear your news crazy

Did you test queen?

Cerrone85 · 02/12/2015 12:30

Sorry to hear that bindi, it must have been disappointing given that you thought you were pg. Ah well here's to a new years eve BFP! My ETD is just a day earlier that yours!

Good luck anyone else who is testing soon!

SeriousStuff · 02/12/2015 14:17

crazy so sorry to hear that, but yes, at least Christmas is coming and you can enjoy a booze/pâté/brie filled one now. Good luck in the New Year!

How you haven't POAS yet queen, I don't know - do it!

soda it's not all over til AF arrives! FX for you.

OstentatiousBreastfeeder · 02/12/2015 15:22

11 days until I test. I forgot this feeling. Thankfully December is a really busy month so it won't be too hard to distract myself.

Good luck to everyone testing Thanks

LifeHandsYouLemons · 02/12/2015 15:44

Can I board ?! AF due 8th December but hoping for BFP x

queenoftheworld93 · 02/12/2015 17:09

Oh no way queen!! How bloody frustrating for you! I'm so annoyed on your behalf AngrySad

And you're 16dpo queen? Think I read that earlier? What brand tests are you using?

Kellz92 · 02/12/2015 19:35

Oh no queen how irritating!!

OwlinaTree · 02/12/2015 19:43

Ooh life you are the same day as me and scottishgirl! Could do a synchronized poas!

Felt a bit dizzy and light headed this afternoon, only for a minute or two. I really promised myself I wouldn't symptom spot but it's so hard to resist!!

hanste123 · 02/12/2015 20:40

Hi sodasoda! No AF yet... Fingers crossed for both of us! How bizarre about your temp! I spoke to my sister about her early pregnancy signs and she that she just didn't get any AF signs. I usually get an achy back which I don't have yet! Have been incredibly emotional and teary the last few days and banging headache now. Will try and hold off from testing. Really hope we are both PG!

ScottishGirlx · 02/12/2015 21:03

Hi life & Owlina, that's exciting that there will be a few of us testing on the same day Grin

I'm the same with symptom spotting, can't help myself. My google search history is hilarious! I'm just getting over a stinking cold, have had a watery mouth (but no nausea) and have had a few dizzy spells too. Oh and also really short with DP Confused

MiniLop · 02/12/2015 21:08

BFN for me again this morning, 12dpo I think. Will keep testing every morning until AF arrives cos I can't help myself!

queenoftheworld93 · 02/12/2015 21:11

Yep, 16dpo! Confirmed with temping Confused feeling really shut to be honest, got a UTI and feel a bit queasy. Been using frers so figure it's a definite no for this cycle.

Sodasoda · 02/12/2015 21:19

That's very strange queen. What's your usual LP? You never know - don't count yourself out, could be a late implanting bean!

Keep testing mini!

Hold on tight hanste - one more day of keeping strong, not testing and fighting off AF with a big stick! Fingers crossed we get our BFPs on Friday morning xx

Sakura03 · 02/12/2015 22:59

Hi everyone, had Dr's appointment last night, it's 6 months since my mc and I wanted to ask for more tests. Dp is having a SA and she'll do a repeat of bloods day 2 and 21and swabs (not had swabs done before, what's that for? Forgot to ask), then potentially referred to hospital for a blue dye test. I'm really pleased about that, I feel more relaxed already. Cd26 here, etd/af due on Saturday.

OwlinaTree · 02/12/2015 23:21

Glad you have had a good appointment and it's helping you relax sakura.
