Who’s TTC a Christmas Baby. March 2018

[MagicalCreatures]

Not that I specifically want a Christmas baby. But my LMP was the 20th March so that means, going by a 28 day cycle, if I fell pregnant this month, Baby’s ‘estimated’ due date would be Christmas Day!!!!!!!!

It’s the first month that I’ve felt ready to start trying again after a miscarriage and my cycles haven’t been completely regular.
Ranging from 27 - 30 days. So I’m using OPK’s and Temping to try and pinpoint ovulation.

Should be ovulating within the next 4 days.

Anyone else actively trying this week?
Let’s make this a ‘LIVE’ 2WW thread.
I’m 30, and trying for #1

I’m scared to death. I’m 9dpo exactly the same as last time but the line was slightly darker and that ended in a long horrible miscarriage.
I’m happy that I’ve been given another chance but I now have this sad view that I should never get too excited because anything can happen x

So I'm back. Was expecting AF on Tuesday Wednesday as I think I usually have a 26 days cycle. On day 28 (Thursday) I had brown discharge in the afternoon which in the past year or so has been pretty normal for me. It's now Saturday and I still have brown discharge. I've used 3 panty liners since Thursday (sorry TMI) and they've little got a smudge on them. Just been to the toilet now expecting to see red and still nope. What on earth is going on? Surely it can't be implantation bleeding this late? Unless I ovulated a lot later this month? I tested BFN on Wednesday. Any ideas?

I think I can maybe see something Magical :)

You’re only 9dpo though. You might have implanted later this time around so I would give it a couple more days 💕 fx for your BFP xxx

Goodluck everyone! According to ovia if I have conceived this month the baby should be born between 27th Dec-31st I have a regular 29 day cycle with my last AF on the 20th March AF is due in 5 days do I take a test now? I have the early detection ones only symptoms I’ve had has been heavy breasts and feeling dizzy yesterday I am not wanting to get my hopes up too much as this is only the second month ttc and it will be my first child

@MagicalCreatures there's TWO LINES ON THE FRER!!! Omg!! I'm so excited for you!! It's there!!!

@Nillynally I HAD THAT!!! And I just assumed it was af! Then nothing and I tested... bfp!!!

@Cakelaur oh god! When do I test? Just told my husband, he would honestly be more interested if I told him my car had made a funny noise! What test shall I use? Posh one?

@Nillynally Defo frer!! Don't use anything else! I didn't show up on ICs which I used up until bfp. Took two more days to show up on that. So defo frer. Omg I'm so excited!!

I think I see the two lines on the FRER too @MagicalCreatures don't worry about it being faint, 9dpo is still v early! Maybe wait and test again on Mon and the line will be darker! Fx for you x

@Nillynally I'd test again, that sounds as though it could be implantation bleeding. Fx for you! X

11dpo here and no AF although I've felt like she is on her way all week and is due today according to FF...If she hasn't shown by Monday I'll test then. Don't feel pregnant at all though so think I'm probably out!

Haha just moaned at hubby for not showing an interest and he said he's quite honestly shutting himself and doesn't know what to say 😂 and that he's spectacularly excited and will go and get me a FRER. Will it show up today do you think? Supposed to have ovulated on the 29th!

Ooh @MrsY87 I'm super excited for you too!! Looks like we may have a lucky thread here!!!

Thanks everyone. I’m just so nervous. And I know every pregnancy is different but it leaves such an anxiety behind when you lose one.
I am going to wait til Monday to test again. And I’ll use another FRER.
I’ll let you all know how it goes. But the line is definitely there and it showed within a minute.
I hope this is a lucky thread.
Nillynally test again and good luck.
Rach and MrsY good luck If you do decide to test x

Got my first ever peak on my clearblue monitor this morning so lots of sex this weekend and fingers crossed it works. If not hubby has a form to go for semen analysis as we have been trying for 18 months but think it is more my crappy ovaries as we already have a child together

@MagicalCreatures HOW CAN YOU WAIT THAT LONG!!! I can't even wait that long for you to poas!!! Haha tentative congratulations!!!

Good luck @Essexgirlupnorth!!

Thanks @Cakelaur just excited I am actually ovulating had good news regarding my eldests primary school place so fingers crossed for a lucky weekend

Cakelaur haha I have no idea.
I was like that last time I fell pregnant. Was POAS every day for a week just to watch the line get darker but after everything, I just don’t feel the need too.
I know it’s because I’m nervous and even though the line was there this morning, it still hasn’t quite sunk in. Probably because I’m worried that if it does sink in and I get excited, that it will all end in tears again.
God, I am so depressing about it all aren’t I. I want to jump for joy at how lucky I am but I’m really holding back.
Is that normal?
Do you feel like that after your loss?

@MagicalCreatures it's totally normal to be anxious after a previous loss, I remember being so anxious with DS after my mc just take each day as it comes and if you can allow yourself to be excited as your pregnancy is more likely to be successful than not. Big hugs, it's an anxious time x

I'm shitting myself @MagicalCreatures I'm right there with you!! And there is an awesome bfp group that you can come join. We've all been through it. Some more than once!

Thanks guys. I’m glad it’s not just me. It’s such an emotional rollercoaster.
Which thread is it Cakelaur I’ll have a look and join you x

No Christmas baby for me as AF arrived this morning...good luck to those of you still to test this month.

Couldn’t sleep so thought I might as well take my test. I’m not going to lie, I’m having a tiny bit of a panic right now while my husband is asleep in the next room! 😬 I think I’m excited 😂

Congratulations @MagicalCreatures and @Stephisaur, sorry that the witch has arrived @MrsY87.

I'm trying to hold out testing for a couple more days. Got a BFN at 9dpo yesterday and thought I was out but then my temp has shot up this morning, really hoping this is a sign of a possible pregnancy triphasic BBT chart! Fingers crossed!

Omg!!! @Stephisaur AMAZING!!!

Sorry was so excited it hit post too quick!! @Stephisaur were you expecting this? How many dpo! What's your EDD?? So many questions!!!

@cakelaur either 17 or 19. I think 19, app thinks 17 😂 err December 20th by the looks of it 😬 I was sort of expecting it - went off tea which is so unusual for me and it was making me feel a bit sick but at the same time I didn’t think we’d DTD at the right time so I assumed it was my pill comedown making me mental again 😂
