Yep! How are you doing?

I've actually got a busy week working away this week, so hoping to distract myself.

heiheithechicken · 09/12/2018 13:49

I've got a weeks holiday from work so need to keep busy! And youngest birthday at the weekend.

When do you plan on testing??

This is an excellent question...

AF due sometime between 17th and 21st. But we'll be away doing Christmasy things 21st-27th! Would feel particularly weird testing at MIL's house. Am I strong enough to wait until the 28th, that is the question...

LillianFullStop · 09/12/2018 18:20

Meeeee! AF due 14th and crazy symptom spotting... so far only a bit of cramping but that could be a premenstrual cramping!

beibikeiks · 09/12/2018 19:52

Me!

I think I'm 3dpo now and AF due around the 19th (so close to Christmas 😵).
I'm trying to keep my mind off the whole TTC business, but that's easier said than done.

Baby dust for everyone xx

heiheithechicken · 09/12/2018 20:19

@Topofthehills oh I'd be testing the 20th but I'm stupid. Admire you if you have the strength to wait it out!

I'm due the 21st. So I'm really hoping for some Christmas luck!

Yep! Think I’m 3DPO. 3rd month of trying so hoping I’ll get an early Christmas present. Fingers crossed for everyone.

OctoberGirl91 · 09/12/2018 23:08

Thanks

LillianFullStop · 10/12/2018 11:58

More the merrier! When are you all planning to POAS? I am trying to hold off until AF is due - hopefully I can make it!

heiheithechicken · 10/12/2018 12:11

I'm going to try hold off til 20th.
Just need to find the strength not to start POAS before!

OctoberGirl91 · 10/12/2018 12:12

I'm going wait till 18th 2 days before AF due for two FRER in my bathroom burning a hole in cupboard 🙈😂

I had a MC on 4th October and with that pregnant I had a positive from 12DPO xx

bunhead34 · 10/12/2018 13:02

Me too! AF due on the 20th, I'm trying not
To test till I'm late this month!

LillianFullStop · 10/12/2018 22:58

I’m testing on 14th but really struggling not to now

OctoberGirl91 · 10/12/2018 23:15

4/5DPO really bad floating low down, few aches and twinges in boobs!

Don't know if it's normal or not after my MC xx

goldflakepaint · 10/12/2018 23:28

Me too! 4dpo and trying not to symptom spot. Lots of jelly like/ creamy cm in last two days and what I can only describe as itchy nipples, no idea if these are signs or not at this stage. Also a bit more tired and irritable in mood but I can get like that in luteal phase so trying to not read too much into it. Af due 17th, usually would not test until after af due (which means I rarely get to test) but would be quite keen to know if I can drink at work do on Friday. Would testing at 8dpo just be a big waste of time?

beibikeiks · 11/12/2018 15:34

@goldflakepaint I would say 8dpo is too early and would most likely be negative whether you'd actually be pregnant or not. Implantation can take place until like 10dpo for example and you don't start producing the hormone until you've implanted 😊 I'd use a cheap test at least and be prepared for a negative!

I personally can't stand more negatives, so I try my best to not test until I'm overdue 😩

FeeneeTTC · 11/12/2018 16:29

Hi, I'd love to join! I'm approx 7dpo (could be anything from 5-7dpo). I'm using Clomid after trying for over 2.5years, with one pregnancy in that time (natural) that unfortunately resulted in a miscarriage on 30th September at 7 weeks.

I've been monitored this cycle with scans and bloods, I got confirmation yesterday that I had ovulated on both sides so the Clomid has definitely worked! Just hope at least one egg has been caught (and would be absolutely delighted with 2 but that's probably incredibly unlikely).
I have had irregular and long cycles in the past, but I'd estimate AF is due about 18th/19th. Hospital told me to test next Wed (19th) if AF hasn't arrived.
Symptom spotting all over the shop - had dull cramps for a couple of days on and off, and sore boobs for 3 days now, but could easily be some sort of Clomid side effect I guess!
Sorry for the essay - hoping there is lots of positive news on this thread over the next couple of weeks!

OctoberGirl91 · 11/12/2018 18:26

Sorry for your loss @FeeneeTTC I also lost my baby on 30th September at 7+4 and had ERPC on 4th October.

All the best fx for you and sticky baby dust xx

FeeneeTTC · 11/12/2018 19:00

@OctoberGirl91 sorry for your loss too, it’s only now I’ve suffered a mc that I’ve found out how many women/couples have gone through the same. Here’s hoping December is brings lots of BFPs for everyone on the thread!

Smileyface32 · 12/12/2018 11:17

Can I join? My AF is due on the 17th!

LillianFullStop · 12/12/2018 11:31

Of course @smileyface32! when are you planning to test?

Flowers to @octobergirl91 and @feeneeTTC - stay strong this TTC business is not easy... good luck for this TWW!
