December Bus (all I want for Christmas is... a baby!)

[MrsG280516]

Thought I'd start the December bus, who's on the naughty list this year?

MrsG
25
TTC #1
Cycle 2
CD1
AF due 9/12

My FW is approaching so I should really think about DTD but that means I would need to shave my legs and I can't be arsed

I had some strange CM yesterday, think and sticky and tinged with some brown blood - very odd. I did a random OPK when I came home and although it was negative the test line was still stronger than I had expected it to be at this stage in my cycle.

This is my first cycle though where I haven't breast fed my DS at any point so my hormones might be causing cycle strangeness.

I have only got one OPK left and whereas normally I would be on Amazon ordering some more this time round I'm thinking of not bothereing and just have regular sex and see what happens.

I feel resigned to the fact now that DS2 probably won't happen so I've lost the urge to actively try if you know what I mean?

mrsbarnettsbaby good luck! I'm due a couple of days before you so maybe we will be testing at the same time and we will both have early xmas pressies

Hello ladies, can I join you?
TTC number 3
Cycle 5
CD 8
AF Due 11/12

LOL writer my DH would be lucky if I shaved my legs, I don't think I've bothered since it started getting colder... haha

I am driving myself in sane. Felt like I was ovulating over the weekend but constantly negative opks. Now nothing but a bit of nausea and tiredness. I don't know if I have ovulated or not but we've DTD loads over the last 6 days so hoping we've caught it if it's happened!

mrsbarnettsbaby I'm the same as you, after due 3/12 so now in my tww.. Eek!

This thread moves so fast! Updated list... please just shout up if I've missed you off and give me your AF due date or testing date

Oh, me please! Testing/AF due on 12/12.

Feeling bloody sick today

mrsb mrsg mouselove gracie were all testing on the same day! Fx for us

I think I will be testing 03/12 too as I'm sure I ovulated on Saturday and not today. That would fall in with my normal cycle too I think last month was just a weird one that's thrown my dates out on Ovia.

mrsG - my period is due about the 10th of December so I will probably be testing from the 7th

Oh yay and you binkybunny I'm going to be going spare in these two weeks

I'll join you in the craziness as I'm already am going mental trying to guess when I ovulated seeing as the opks didn't show. Although I may have missed the spike if I did ovulate earlier as I only started using them on Friday.

I am now symptom spotting as I sort of knew somehow when I conceived DD

I seem to know too, I always get a bad cold when I fall pregnant.. I'm not sure why, I've been pregnant three times now and every single time I get an awful cold about a week before my bfp. Baring in mind I've got my bfp in June, August and may? I don't know anyone else who has the same symptom, and no one catches it off me. But now it's winter, who knows if it'll be a pregnancy one or just a cold! DD is in school and she's always picking something up x

I'm probably overthinking things now but I am really worried I might not have dtd enough this cycle

We dtd way more than any other cycle and we managed every day but one in my fertile window (that's ovias guess at my fw) and we have BDd at least every other day from CD15 - 23. Am now CD27(of about 34) and really worried I might have mistimed it as I didn't get a positive opk (though I didn't know what I was doing and missed a few days etc so not surprised I didn't catch LH increase) - I had a LOT of symptoms on CD21 which is 2 weeks before my period is likely to be so would be about right for ovulation I think... Wouldn't it? I don't know why I am doubting now, I was so sure at the time I thought I ovulated.

Just got baby bombed again and finding it hard today. Really really hope this is my month. Sorry for the negativity, hope everyone else is doing OK xx

Flamin Hun you DTD so much I'm surprised you're still walking. That's enough. And everyday? Yes.... more than enough. Remember more mature sperms win the race!!! PMA. PMA. PMA.

I'm off to my rheumatology appointment. Not looking forward to it at all. I have a weird thought that they might tell me to stop TTC (and I have no idea why I think that just silly thoughts)

FlaminFlamingo it sounds like you are well covered, try not to worry. It only takes one time and the days leading up to ovulation have the best chances. Even O-2 and O-1 have the same chances of conception, so every other day is perfect.

Thanks So Much Mouselove And MrsG You are both right. I know rationally that i have done all that i can this cycle and i think after hearing another friend is now pregnant I suddenly felt panicky and just doubted myself
Also now in the TWW I am now unable to do anything but wait.

Hope your appointment goes OK Mouselove - I dont see any reason why TTC would have any impact on that so in all likelihood they wont say that so try not to worry Xx

Flamingo I know exactly that feeling of doubt! had it too! and you had three times as much of the old bedroom bouncing as me!

We just have to chill out for a few more days.

On another note; I have only poked myself in the boobs twice today to "check"

The 2ww is terrible. My boobs are killing me but think I would usually get that some months on the run up to my period. I took it a step further and keep pinching my nipples to see does it hurt .... it doesn't I usually have to get up once a night to wee now in the last week I don't!
So now I have convinced myself I'm definitely not pregnant.

I'm already thinking of testing on Sunday... I'll be 9dpo but I have some cheapy strip tests that I don't mind wasting to see if I get a bit of a squinter. Slightly more impatient this month than my first cycle!!

Sorry have been quiet - am in fertile week according to ovia but don't think I've ov'd yet although OPKs getting darker so hopefully soon

Same MrsG test day is next Tuesday according to Ovia and AF due on 1st, think I might live dangerously and test on Saturday and see what I get.

Been getting some cramps today, we dtd last night. Felt very sick too, but I think I'm symptom spotting somewhat! Trying to talk myself out of testing early (due on on the 8th!). Fingers crossed for everyone else in the tee
