Christmas is here but it's not the turkey that's getting basted... with symptoms to spot and festive cheer, Prty and the gang are getting BFPS this year!!

Hi (big wave)
So you clicked on here cos you were looking for me (I'm flattered!) or the title seemed interesting!
I'm aware it doesn't really explain anything but we are bunch of lovely ladies all TTC and going ever so slightly crazy with it! For more info see our original thread here -

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2412386-TTC-anxious-over-early-pregnancy-possible-symptoms?msgid=56357000#56357000

And our most recent thread here -

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2480630-So-its-John-Wayne-vs-Les-Dawson-in-The-Great-British-Pee-Off-and-Prtys-judging-get-ready-to-be-basted-lovelies?pg=1&order=

We are symptoms spotters extraordinaire - you name it we've had it, real and/or imagined
We are here to help, we are all supportive, we laugh, rant, cry, joke, rage, smile, and comfort together. Be you a lurker or poster (established or new) then you are very welcome here. We only have a few rules:

1. No judgement - we all lead different lives and have different standards and that is fine. You wanna get wasted everyday of TWW, that's fine. You wanna abstain completely, that's fine. We need support, not judgement.
2. No feeling stupid - we've all had those months where we definitely think we are pg 110% convinced and then AF turns up, don't feel bad about it, it happens. Also we all have different levels of knowledge so no question is stupid apart from the one you don't ask.
3. On this thread there is no such thing as TMI - we are all adults and we all know how miraculous and amazing... and downright disgusting our bodies can be, it's fine. Share what you want, we will not be fazed.

So that's it, jump in and FX'd for all my lovelies xx

pirsy - I know exactly how you feel - I'm always like that too - trying to be positive but tears not far away! It's totally understandable- that's why it's good to share on here. At least you got a seat though . Look after yourself and we'll all look forward to 2016 together - we'll all get our bfps then

prty! How exciting! Can't you hold your wee and test later this morning? If you're 2 days late anyway it should show by now?

Sorry to hear that pirsy. Well done for staying positive. It's so chuffing hard sometimes though, isn't it?

Not a lot happening here. Still in limbo. Boobie tenderness seems to change throughout the day. Had some weird cramps yesterday. Not like typical AF abdominal cramps, but more like a dull throb on my pelvic bone, low down??

Hard to justify any other symptoms due to Christmas madness. I was dizzy after walking the dogs yesterday, but I hadn't had breakfast. I'm generally quite tired and exhausted, but that could easily be due to late nights, poor diet over the last week, not enough water/exercise. Loads of vivid dreams, but I'm not the best sleeper and stress usually causes them.

I have asked OH to hide the sticks until Friday!!

Oooh prty didn't see your message (I'm such a slow typer, lol!). That sounds quite exciting! I agree, hold your wee and test later this morning! I'm pretty sure they're sensitive enough to pick it up from any time of the day aren't they?

pantz and kitten no can do - obligatory Christmas family visits to make today! Heading out of the door now and not back til later tonight! Might test when I get home, if not then definitely tomorrow!! I'm 2 days late by my calculations but the app reckons I'm due today... will keep you update, wipe per wipe hahaha!!

Lol! Yes, do!

Very impressed by the positive attitude pirsy. I'm back to work today which should be a good distraction.

No AF as yet, still creamy white stuff on wiping which OVIA seems to think is positive. Was Albert weepy last night and sore boobs today.

prty sounds very promising!

Going to try to hold out for Friday too baggypantz! Are you going to have a drink New Year's Eve? I can't decide, sorry if you've already said

fee, I'm probably going to have a glass of bubbly. We're staying in though due to having a four year old, and not a lot of partying money left after Christmas, lol!

I allowed myself the odd glass of red now and then over the past couple of weeks. If and when I get my BFP, I'll happily abstain completely, like I did with DS.

Hopefully we're both still in the game and can have a New Year's peeing party on Friday then!!

No idea what is happening with my body day 5 of cycle and still cramping , worst in morning, boobs ok I guess but slight feeling sick. Flow has slowed right down so....

I have done the same odd glass here and there would stop to but afraid to jump the gun and avoid completely and then have to face endless questioning from PIL. We are going to DH parents house for a party which is usually fairly sedate. MIL absolutely dying for a grandchild and I can't deal with her excitement if then get AF!

Prty Im excited! Please keep us updated! Are you obsessively wiping?! I kept going to the loo yesterday for a little wipe!

Pantz and Fee Ive got everything crossed for you too!

Work is a good distraction, although I do feel a bit like a zombie today. X

First toilet stop of the day... AF is here :(

That's crap prty nice big glass of wine due I think!

Nah, I quit drinking when I started TTC, was a big thing and don't wanna start up again :/

Prty Im sorry! It is rubbish!!

If no wine then maybe some chocolate or a glass of Schloer?!

Oh no prty that's rubbish. So sorry to hear

Sorry to hear prty...
Just off phone to my mum apparently at eight weeks my sis is quite big already so is paying for a scan on thurs to check what is going on. Will be just my feckin luck if she is having more than one...feel like having a big cry :(

prty - so sorry lovely . 2016 will be our year for bfp xx
neetie - big hugs to you too - stuff like that really gets to me, but we will get our turn, keep believing x

Sorry prty didn't mean to be insensitive, well done you staying off it. A good rom com and a relax on the sofa with a hot water bottle is always good.

Sorry to hear that neetie1 we will all get our turn. Hard to be happy for others sometimes

Thanks all, pretty crappy new year for me! fee I'm not offended at all - just figured you probably missed that since it was quite a few threads ago! Becks Blue for me tonight :(

Well am still cramping and occasionally feeling sick.... If cramps continue once bleeding stops will go to docs ..This is really odd. Even did an Internet cheapie which of course was BFN but didn't do it first thing.

Yes neetie go to docs if it continues. It may just be a different af this time - mine does that to me all the time - sometimes light, sometimes heavy, short cycles, long cycles - drives me crazy. The only consistent thing is I don't get pregnant any month.
I agree with fee - it's so hard to be happy for others sometimes - there's a baby bomb heading my way in January by friends - I should be happy for them but it's damn hard

I have zero self control. AF due tomorrow. Faint line, or complete hallucination?!

I think I can see one baggypamtz!! I managed to resist this morning definitely POAS tomorrow!!

May a fancy digital one for you tomorrow???
