Hey how's everyone doing? Is everyone safe and ok?

@falkor32 how are you doing?

[VNAWENN]

Hi all, is anyone continuing their journey through this time?

[Makeafamily19]

@claireb707 yeah that must feel strange, though at least you can relax while you are away and not symptom spot! Have a lovely holiday and Christmas!

AF is due for me Christmas Eve so I hope it doesn't get me down too much!

[claireb707]

Hey 👋 I'm doing ok though currently in fertile window and feels weird to not be doing anything about it.
This time next week though we'll be in St Lucia 😎😎🏝🏝🍸🍸

[Makeafamily19]

How is everyone??

[claireb707]

Period has arrived 😢😩 cramps as well 😩😩😩

[claireb707]

Now 18 days (cd32), bfn again but my temp has dropped a lot overnight so suspect period is on its way but no symptoms of it yet (normally get spotting and cramps)

[claireb707]

17dpo still no sign of period but still bfn

[Katie1109]

@claireb707 I am at the stage where I would give up any holidays for the pregnancy lol. But I do fully sympathise, my OH wants to book some holiday for next year and I am reluctant because I might be pregnant - I really need to stop putting my life on hold for something that might not happen!

[claireb707]

Hey @Katie1109 🙋‍♀️
Part of me wanta it to happen this month as it would've fab Christmas present but rhe other half of me thinks I'm so close to 2 weeks in the Caribbean (we go 3 weeks today) I want to go dammit 😂😂

[Katie1109]

Hi ladies x I found you again x
How are you all? @claireb707 I've got everything crossed for you hun x I really, really want this to be your month x you've been so supportive x
@falkor32 congrats x wishing you healthy pregnancy x
I'm 5DPO today and already being an idiot and symptom spotting x af due 11/12 of December. I had peak opk on 26th so 27th was likely my O day. We DTD 3,2,1 days before O, missed my O day unfortunately but manage to DTD day after x I am so hoping for Xmas bfp that I think if it's not our month again I will have a breakdown. I so want to give my OH a BFP for Christmas !!

[claireb707]

16 DPO now, still no period but 2 bfn

[claireb707]

Yeah I'm doing ok thanks 12dpo but resisted so far and not sure I'm gonna test as I'm so convinced it's not our month.
Work has me so fed up, I've had a banging headache all afternoon, I'm tired but not sleepy and am just thinking of Friday 20th as that's my last day in work for almost 3 weeks and then I only have a week left in current role before I move to my new team

[falkor32]

@claireb707 thank you. Resisting the urge to POAS again today to check I wasn’t dreaming 😬 ... hope you’re doing okay? X

[claireb707]

Oh wow that's a definite bfp!! Congratulations 😊👏👏👏👶🏻👶🏻

[falkor32]

Thanks @Makeafamily19 🙂 I was expecting AF to start today. I also ovulated earlier than normal this cycle!

[Makeafamily19]

Congratulations @falkor32 ! Is AF late for you?

[falkor32]

I’m 13dpo today, this just happened. I can’t quite believe it

[claireb707]

We have a 16 day Caribbean cruise booked over Christmas and new year so we can't try again for 3 months after returning due to zika risk (yeay but also 😢)

[Katie1109]

Fingers crossed for you x How come last chance till April if you don’t mind me asking? x

[claireb707]

I'm 4/5dpo now so in the waiting game again. Will be last chance for us till April now but I'm not holding out much hope but we'll see

[Katie1109]

Hi @claireb707 how are we? Where are you in your cycle?
Last cycle I had a peak CD 15/16, but I thought it was later than normally, because I usually get ovulation pain CD 12/13 x so we’ll see what happens this month x

[claireb707]

@Katie1109 even negative opk have lines, a positive has to be as dark or darker than the control line so 🤞 soon

[claireb707]

Oh no @Katie1109 and @Imadreamer44 😢

[Katie1109]

Hi all,

Sorry I've been missing for a while. Came back from holidays, work has been hectic since. I had my af while on holiday, although it was 2 days late so I had a glimmer of hope but unfortunately it arrived...and now I'm on CD 9 today. Ovulation predicted for next Wednesday, although I used opk out of curiosity this morning and there already is a visible line on it, so might be earlier x

How is everyone doing?
