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

Sorry to hear that fuzzy get on the festive booze!

GinandJazzHands · 25/12/2015 17:33

I've got one more FRER but a bunch of Internet cheapies so POASing every day and saving the FRER for NYE if AF is not here by then.

FuzzyOwl · 25/12/2015 17:37

Fingers crossed for you GinandJazz

GinandJazzHands · 25/12/2015 19:25

Thanks Fuzzy here's to your BFP in early '16!

FuzzyOwl · 25/12/2015 19:42

Thanks GinandJazz x

GinandJazzHands · 26/12/2015 18:31

Oh well AF got me this afternoon. Still, happy I at least OV'd and can now spot my temp differences pre/post, I've had my first AF post-birth control without too much waiting around, and I can get totally **faced on NYE Xmas Grin
Hopping on the January bus but keeping an eye out here - massive Fx we get at least one more BFP from those still POASing this month! Good luck ladies!!

ZazzlesTheCat2 · 26/12/2015 19:09

Oh no sorry Gin!

I'm 12 dpo - not poas today or yesterday. I have no symptoms whatsoever though so I'm sure I'm out too. Af not due for another 3-4 days. Arghh - I hate the waiting!

GinandJazzHands · 27/12/2015 09:05

Fx Zazzles! Will pop back and see how you are getting on

Celen · 27/12/2015 13:31

I'm still lurking around girls, keeping my fingers crossed for some pre NYE bfps!! Smile

How's everyone feeling?

I'm still here too, due to test on New Year's Eve, it's cycle day 30 and I'm struggling to resist the urge to test!

Anyone testing then too?

ZazzlesTheCat2 · 27/12/2015 16:51

Thanks Gin. Tested this morning - BFN. No surprise. Just waiting now until af arrives in next few days Sad

Snowdog37 · 27/12/2015 18:03

13dpo and af is due tomorrow. Bfn again even though my temp is stop above 98. It's usually 97 at most. Cold, sore throat, gassy and moody. My lucky dh!
Not going through test any more, just wait for the red tide of doom to arrive. Bleugh. Xmas Sad

Snowdog37 · 28/12/2015 04:28

Looks like af just pulled into the driveway. Roll on cycle 2. Ugh.

Celen · 28/12/2015 07:39

Bollucks Snowog, so sorry to hear this Sad

Be kind to yourself, enjoy a drink or five on NYE and maybe see you on the Jan bus? Xxx

Purplerain well done in your will power!! When will you test if AF doesn't appear?

OP posts:
Purplerain067 · 28/12/2015 09:50

Celen I caved and tested this morning, was a bfn! Sad

If AF doesn't arrive by New Year's Day I will test again, I normally have a 30-35 day cycle so we will see.

Snowdog37 · 28/12/2015 15:11

Well just to mess with my head, the spotting that looked like af en route went away and now I'm just plagued with very ambiguous yellow/slightly pink tinged cm when I wipe. Could still turn into af today or tomorrow I guess. I feel like crp, got a sore throat and cold and now my ears hurt like I'm getting an ear infection. Thank god I'm not working this week I just want to crawl under my electric blanket and watch bad tv and be miserable. I missed fmu today so I can't test again til tomorrow but I feel like af is just taunting me. Btch.

How's everyone else doing?

GinandJazzHands · 28/12/2015 16:08

Argh snow that sounds frustrating! Fx it may mean that AF isn't here and good news is around the corner instead! Nursing a hangover here after embracing the Xmas drinking during AF a little too hard.

miniswin · 29/12/2015 14:25

Hello!! Here with what's hopefully a wee positive story to keep the December momentum going! I have been a shameless lurker, apologies!!

25, TTC#1, cycle 4, had a b*tch of a false positive test 2 months ago and the entire world seemed to announce pregnancies in December, including a couple we know quite well who got married a couple of weeks before we did, and got pregnant 1st shot! So I was feeling a bit down (though realise we are very early days!!) Cracked on with Christmas including all of the booze and pâté on offer (Blush), and apart from smuggling peanuts for the past 4 days and a couple of very mild cramps, nothing to write home about symptom wise and I thought I was out...

Well, this morning, CD25, about 12 DPO, I POAS... And.. Positive!! I'm still keeping my fingers crossed and going to do a few more tests over the next few days, but feeling very excited and my husband is too!! Don't lose hope girls!! December ain't over yet!! xxx

Snowdog37 · 29/12/2015 14:49

Well after being a bit of a tease, af is now in the house officially. So onto cycle 2 and the January bus I go! Congrats to all the December grads 🎉🍻🎄💐

I'm 39, with increased day 3 FSH, and a mother who went through menopause at age 41. So I was hoping to freeze my eggs soon, but got a BFP! We'll see if it sticks - See more at:

Purplerain067 · 30/12/2015 09:24

GinandJazzHands · 31/12/2015 11:05
