Yup I am due 1st jan too!

bubblybrit · 03/12/2017 20:24

@whiningandwining. My cousin is a GP and says that there is only a marginally smaller chance of getting pg each month between those in their 20s and those in their 30s! A lot of fertility studies are also based on older data rather than moving with the changes in lifestyle etc....

@woody096. Welcome. Think that’s about a half dozen of us due af on 1st Jan. should be an exciting start to 2018. Fx 🙂

So glad to have found this thread. May no longer drive my husband mad!

Fia256 · 03/12/2017 21:41

AF has arrived so least I'm out of my misery of waiting for it to show! We have something planned for every weekend from now until New Years so going to busy busy, so I'm hoping to just enjoy the month and try and relax!

Owlpatrol · 04/12/2017 07:58

Same here Af arrived middle of the night Sad trying to stay positive as I'm getting major baby bombed today

Urgh, feeling so awful today - last two nights I've had super vivid dreams, yesterday's was that I had a positive pregnancy test and last nights was that I had implantation bleeding. I've done a FRER yesterday, which was so negative it's unbelievable, and AF is due in 2 days so I know that it's 100% January bus for me...

Also I'm meant to be a bridesmaid for my niece next year, we are very close and she was my bridesmaid (and did EVERYTHING for me in the run up to my wedding last year), but if I conceive this month my due date will be a week before her wedding 😰 I had planned to not try this month, but I am so utterly desperate to be a mummy, I just don't know what to do 😢

Hope everyone's feeling more upbeat than me today! I'm a wreck 😞 xx

Fia256 · 04/12/2017 09:26

Ahh I'm sorry @Owlpatrol there's nothing worse is there Thanks I feel like me and you are destined to be on a pregnancy thread together though! Our time will come XX

I'm having the worst af I have ever ever had. I have no idea why it's as bad as it is this morning! But my silver lining in it arriving is that I can now go and have my bloods done tomorrow and make my recurrent miscarriage clinic appointment finally!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 04/12/2017 10:04

@Fia256 @Owlpatrol. Sorry the red lady got you. I'm sad you guys are getting off of the December bus! Fingers crossed for the new year :-)

LookingAtTheStars89 · 04/12/2017 10:05

I'm fairly sure i will be on the january bus by the end of the week. My mood is very pre af and I'm ravenous!

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 04/12/2017 10:14

I'll be parking myself here. Have a d&c on Friday so I'm guessing January is a major push in itself (And Jan is my first due date month) Sad This bloody sucks

HoneyCake86 · 04/12/2017 11:42

Hi just poking my head in. 3 days pre-Af still but like stars im ravenous with sugar cravings and im starting to break out in spots. If af arrives on time then ill be due 4 jan next.

Good luck to you all xx

HoneyCake86 · 04/12/2017 11:43

Im so sorry unicorns SadFlowers

Fia256 · 04/12/2017 12:11

Oh @UnicornsandRainbows1 I remember you from one of the ttc threads! I'm so so sorry your back here SadThanksThanksThanks

SpongeCake23 · 04/12/2017 12:55

Can I join you all?

I'm TTC #1
I'm 28
DP is 36
Cycle number 6
Possible PCOS

My periods seem to be getting more painful and horrific each month Sad GP won't test me until I've been trying for a year. Each month I get horrendous breast pain so I think I'm pregnant! Why? Why? Why?

Starting pre seed this cycle and continuing with seven seas trying for a baby vitamins. Also starting EPO capsules until day 14/15 as is reccomended because of possible uterine contractions.

SpongeCake23 · 04/12/2017 12:57

Oh and CD24

AF hasn't arrived yet but very definitely on the way!

LoveTheBear85 · 04/12/2017 13:15

@unicorn Flowers hope you are ok

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 04/12/2017 14:08

Ty guys.

@Fia256 I remember you too, but hoping I wouldn't bump into you (in a nice way).

Owlpatrol · 04/12/2017 14:18

Hi all today is a bad day for me af is making so mardy @Fia256 lovely to have your support our time will come. I have been majorly baby bombed today it's hard for me to explain on here as I'm not sure if she used mn when ttc however it's obviously the most gorgeous baby in the entire world and she has pcos and still got pregnant under a year. I think you understand my struggle

Everyone seems to be a bit down today I wonder if the full moon has anything to do with it. Let's get these next few days out the way and I'm sure next week we should all be feeling better Cake

Fia256 · 04/12/2017 15:02

Oh is it full moon? I work in a hospital and everything has gone wrong today! They always say it causes chaos as well!

I have broken down at work most days for the last few weeks, and started having bad anxiety attacks and very stressed. The dr I work with said I have all the signs of ptsd but as I put a brave face on for so long after our loss in June, it's all coming out now. So I honestly think I'm going to either make an app with the occi health at work or go to my gp and sign myself off for a few weeks. I don't think any of it is helping with ttc either. I just feel like I've lost myself recently it's horrible

HoneyCake86 · 04/12/2017 16:14

Aw fia Xmas SadFlowers its not unusual for emotions of a loss to crop up now and again, its how the grieving process works. I found that when my 1st partner died while i was pregnant. Occasionally the grief would bubble up out of the blue but i found the more that that happened over time, the less intense the feelings got, eventually i came to terms with it and moved on. I know its not exactly the same as a child loss, but i have friends and family who have had miscarriage and stillbirth and they say the same thing. Allow yourself your emotions to release itll get you through Flowers

HoneyCake86 · 04/12/2017 16:17

Owl for me i think its just pmt creeping up, af is due in the next 3 days.

bubblybrit · 04/12/2017 18:01

I’m so sorry to hear about all your losses. I’ve not experienced this personally so can only imagine how painful it must be. I really do hope that that 2018 is your year and that I don’t see all of you on the Feb bus (in the nicest way possible)!

@LookingAtTheStars89. You ain’t out until you are out so I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you 🙂!!

LookingAtTheStars89 · 04/12/2017 18:14

@bubblybrit. Thanks! I'm keeping my fingers crossed really tight! Xmas Smile
