December Bus - Christmas Wishes

Hi all,

I’ve decided to take the plunge and make a December Bus. I know it’s still early in Nov but for those of us whose cycles fall early in the month it’ll be nice for us to have a new thread!

I’m 23
TTC #1
Cycle: 2

Had so many symptoms in October (unusual for my regular AF) so felt so disappointed when it wasn’t meant to be.

Anyway let’s hope December is our month and hope for that Christmas surprise! SmileHalloween GrinStar

Sparklesdontshine · 29/11/2017 09:51

BFN on fr again too this morning Sad

SydBound27 · 29/11/2017 10:43

Hi all, been silent while i work out my cycle. Had af on 15 Nov so apparently in my fw now but I've not got any ewcm and certainly don't feel ov coming on. I keep bleeding after sex which is probably due to the lap i had at the beginning of the month. Seeing the gyn tomorrow so should get some answers.

Congrats @spydie! Lovely news. Not sure if there have been others - such a long thread..!

Good luck all xx

Merrz · 29/11/2017 11:08

Congratulations Spydie lovely news, lets hope this is going to be a lucky thread for us all!
Sorry af has arrived Kkk I'm also going to be due next af xmas day/boxing day lets really hope its bfp for us instead

louella99 · 29/11/2017 11:47

I'm on cd 7 now so about to start the SMEP. Hope we can keep up with it!

Exciting that there might be some Xmas BFPs.

Kkk87 · 29/11/2017 12:03

Yes fx for us both @Merrz and everyone else in the game

Babydreaming · 29/11/2017 13:51

I think my mind is tricking me into thinking I have pregnancy symptoms! The chance of a BFP this month are minuscule as husband was away for majority of fw! Despite that I’ve had nausea and been more gassy (sorry TMI!) the past 2 days. I’m going to be terrible next month when we actually have a shot!!

Babydreaming · 29/11/2017 13:53

I’m thinking about starting a January thread soon (I know it’s super early!) I’ll wait til sat to know for sure it’s a BFN and then crack on unless someone else wants to get there 1st!

Owlpatrol · 29/11/2017 14:12

Yeah I'll be starting one as well if I get a bfn Friday @Babydreaming as I'll be out till January. I'm feeling really achy today and cold! I'm fairly certain I'm out however dh reckons I'm preggers apparently "he just knows"

RandomUsernameHere · 29/11/2017 16:15

Hi all
I'll join please
Congratulations to those with BFPs!
Age 32
TTC #3
I might be out this month already as I think I ovulated today and not seeing DH until Friday night. We DTD on Monday though so there's a chance I suppose!

Funkyemzie · 29/11/2017 16:54

@spydie congratulations on BFP!! After having my 21 day bloods last month, I've got my first positive OPK in 8 months today...yey!!

So, fingers crossed for this month, not looking forward to tww. How is everybody doing? Xxx

HoneyCake86 · 29/11/2017 18:04

Congrats spydie! And comforting vibes to those with bfn 🐻
Not much to report here only on 5dpo but thought id pop my head in n see whats occurring xx

peterpanwendy · 29/11/2017 18:51

Around 10dpo for me, due AF/BFP on Saturday. Time feels like it's standing still! I just want to know now!

Reckon if I'm out I'll still be in Dec Bus as will be due next AF New Year's Eve/day Sad

Sparklesdontshine · 29/11/2017 18:54

I have had more bleeding and am having cramping too so I'm pretty sure it's af coming early Angry

Babydreaming · 29/11/2017 19:27

@peterpanwendy have you tested at all yet? I’m impressed you’re staying strong!

Sparkles sorry to hear that! Not long til fw again though so you can give it another shot!

I will be 8/9 dpo but determined not to test til sat...it’s hard waiting even though I’m pretty certain it’ll be negative!

tappitytaptap · 29/11/2017 19:34

TTC #2
Cycle 2
AF due approx 13th Dec
Think cycle 1 we entirely missed the fertile window, I seem to ovulate early from my experience with #1.

peterpanwendy · 29/11/2017 19:45

@Babydreaming oh yes! Amazon cheapies only, BFN Envy but I've had spotting (7-8dpo) for the first time in my life so seeing that as a good sign! Not out till AF arrives! Will you test soon?

OP posts:
ImpatientMammy · 29/11/2017 20:01

Awww sparkles at least if it's that you can get going again soon.
I feel like a fraud trying to offer support on my first cycle but hope those with BFN's today are ok. X

Pinkslink17 · 29/11/2017 20:21

Someone slap me, tested twice today! either one day-3 days early! last test for the weekend will be tomorrow morning (maybe on the day of AF) and if its not shown whilst I'm away ill test on Monday morning, (1-3 days late) Hopefully ill come back to some BFP's from you all! Baby dust

Fia256 · 29/11/2017 20:23

@Pinkslink17 I've tested twice for the last few days! I even tested for the second time today, after seeing spotting earlier so I clearly know af is on its way but I still bloody did it! If the tests are there waiting, it's so hard to resist lol

Pinkslink17 · 29/11/2017 20:30

@fia256 I know! Seeing different people's stories on here are also giving me hope! Everyone is just so different and I understand that, but it still puts the 'maybe' seed in your head! I have kept my expected AF date a secret from my husband as I want to surprise him, however it is eating away at me and I just want to tell him how close I am to it and just want to know either way! Like everyone, I have hope and suspicions that I may be as my cervix has risen and is closed, as well as other symptoms but at least that one can't just be in my head as its a physical change out of my control! When are you due your AF? x

Owlpatrol · 29/11/2017 20:31

Well I'm feeling a bit all over the place today. Still trying to stay positive but I've had some light cramps and a migraine plus a stomach ache on and off... whether that's a symptom or not I'm not too worried I think I'll do ic Friday unless spotting started by then as af due sunday/Monday

surreygirl1987 · 29/11/2017 20:32

Argh I totally feel your impatience ladies! Tested today at 11dpo (or possibly 9dpo as think F2F may have got O date wrong) and bfn... So frustrating!

Nats1606 · 29/11/2017 20:39

Hi all, I'm now playing the waiting game. We had a chemical pregnancy last month so I'm excited/terrified/desperately hopeful for the bfp this month. I'm a poas addict and never keep my promise to myself to wait until I'm late :/ bfn so far but quite a lot of symptoms (I have two sons as well as the chemical so I know how I feel when pregnant). Due af etc Friday/Saturday so will know for sure.

Fia256 · 29/11/2017 20:42

@Pinkslink17 couldn't agree more! I've spent all day googling bloody implantation bleed stories!! I don't know why I do it to myself, I know it's pre AF spotting but just can't loose that hope.

Not entirely sure when af is due as had two positive opks 4 days apart this month. If i ovulated the first time then AF technically due today. But I'm certain it was the second time now, so I'm 8/9dpo today. Looking at past charts, I always start spotting around 9dpo so it's not looking to good. The only reason I'm clinging onto hope is my temp is going up each day rather than down Hmm
