For those of us determined to get a bfp before end of 2018 and celebrating Christmas without any alcohol!

Cycle: 5

I usually wait until the day before AF is due to test, just so I have a heads up that she's going to arrive. My LP is only about 10 days though, so I do kind of test early by dpo standards. This cycle I'm away from home until 12dpo, so if AF hasn't arrived by then, I'm quietly optimistic that it'll be a BFP! I always use a FRER, because I only ever POAS once so it's not a waste Grin

@mrsP4 everything crossed for you.

This was cycle 3 properly, with a month or so of not tracking stuff before that. We are so very lucky, but DD was conceived on the first cycle so I wasn’t prepared for the emotional rollercoaster of TTC

MrsP4 · 28/12/2018 23:13

Thank you @stroan I've had some weird CM tonight sorry for TMI but it was like snot! I know it's disgusting but never had this before, but I do feel like AF is on her way got that pressure feeling. Oh wow that's amazing this is month 3 for me too, I've always thought it would take me a while after being on the pill for so long but my periods came back straight away so I guess I'm lucky in that way, I know it takes ages for some

So my first response preg test came today, was BFN. looked at packet, realised i ended up ordering rapid response test 🙈🤪
Have to wait for af now.

Ashleigh95 · 29/12/2018 18:12

9DPO is that a line? Or am I going mad? Think I might have jumped on the December train 😁😁🙊

I did a test this morning. Is the line on the left just where the test line is?

MrsP4 · 30/12/2018 12:36

That's a definite line @Kaye03 congrats! Did you do anything different this month?

Kaye03 · 30/12/2018 12:40

Finding it hard to believe that it might be positive. Nothing different, just havent been able to think about it, as was busy with xmas.

MrsLBear · 30/12/2018 12:47

Congrats @Kaye03 that's a BFP!!!! How many dpo are you? Do you temp?

Kaye03 · 30/12/2018 12:51

Im either 10 or 11 dpo. I dont have a clue how to temp. Just been using clear blue advance digital opk. DD taking wellman tablets & im taking boots contraception tablets.

MrsLBear · 30/12/2018 12:54

Did you get a static smiley with your cb OPK? @Kaye03
You should go out and get a cb digital pg test too!!

Kaye03 · 30/12/2018 13:01

I got static smiley on 18th dec. Ive got cb digital preg test at home. Scared to use it.

Realitysucks · 30/12/2018 13:20

@Kaye03 I got static smiley on 20th and 21st December so guessing I’m 10dpo did test yesterday but the ones that come with the opks and was negative. Girls in the other forum are saying too early to test if it’s a late implantation. Af was due Friday still not here but feel like it’s coming. Now waiting for First Resposne to arrive from amazon tonight and will test then ! If AF hasn’t arrived by Tuesday then test should be able to pick up result then !

mussie · 30/12/2018 13:21

@Kaye03 with a line like that, the cb digital should work! Congrats!!

I had a BBT drop this morning to below coverline 😩 which is so frustrating. AF due today so would be right on time. I was so convinced we'd been successful this month! Hope she arrives sharpish so I can tuck in to all the last of the Christmas booze Wine

Kaye03 · 30/12/2018 13:34

@Realitysucks
Good luck. Hope u get ur bfp! 🤞

Kaye03 · 30/12/2018 13:43

@MrsP4 @MrsLBear ive got one first response test left, will use that tomorrow. Going to keep cb digital on mon.
@Realitysucks i used that yday got negative. Think they arent that good.
Fingers crossed u get some good news.
@mussie hope u get to know either way.

Realitysucks · 30/12/2018 15:26

@Kaye03 tests arrived not even a faint one 😞 but I think I’m 2 days behind you.

December bus ho ho ho
Kaye03 · 30/12/2018 15:31

@Realitysucks
When is af due? Maybe its too soon for it to pick it up. U getting any symptoms?

Realitysucks · 30/12/2018 15:35

@kaye03 af was due yesterday as I have a short LP they have been pretty regular since I came off OC in September at a 25 day cycle. LH surge was late this month on day 18 of cycle. We start IVF in jan so this literally was last chance 😪

Realitysucks · 30/12/2018 15:37

@Kaye03 no symptoms apart from af a bit of a sore back and pulling in tummy but just think it’s af coming. Even made DH dtd today as that always shows if it’s on its way and nothing no sign ! So frustrated now 😞

Kaye03 · 30/12/2018 15:45

@Realitysucks
I know its hard not to get disheartened, but please dont.
Sending u lots of big hugs xx

Realitysucks · 31/12/2018 09:35

So still no sign of AF 11 dpo and neagative test again this morning 🙄 have no idea what’s going on now but will have to ring clinic as dates all messed up now for next month given AF is late.

Realitysucks · 31/12/2018 09:36

@kaye03 holding onto the fact it looks like you got your positive on 12dpo so maybe a news years day surprise for me 🤷‍♀️
