Quite upset as the smileys don't have their Santa hats on yet.

AF arrived 2 days ago so I will probably be testing around 21st December (cycles are about 24 days)

Anyone else???

Have been reading along with this thread but thought I was out of the game as we only had sex once this month (weren't planning on starting TTC properly until 2020). Just haven't felt right the past few days and AF is due today so thought I'd do a test for fun BlushGrin and.... It's positive?! Not very dark but very obvious.

I can't believe it!

We already have a 20 month old, took us years to get pregnant with a few miscarriages and having to have fertility treatment. So trying to be realistic about the chances of this ending in a baby but for now I'm just in shock!!!

Can't decide whether to Tell DH today or wait until tomorrow?!

BFN for me this morning at 11dpo...got a bit upset and it all spilled out in front of my family, feel really bad that I’ve bought a downer on Christmas. Trying to pick myself up but it’s hard!

AF not here yet but due tomorrow, fully expecting it as there was no hint of a line at all on the test and it’s a clearblue early one. Will test once more in the morning with low expectations and then try and focus on having a good time and keeping distracted (with the help of some wine Wink)

@jh2019 I feel you, sorry for th bfn today. The idea of a positive test for Christmas was such a fantasy for me, its a really big downer. No AF yet, and not wasting a test as I know she's halfway here. Just another unwelcome Christmas guest 🤣🤣🤣🤣 big love and positive vibes for all. Let's appreciate all the wine and start the new year full fo hope x

Can anyone offer any experience, did this test yest and this was the result after 2-3mins
Took another test this morn (different type) with first wee and was quite clearly negative.
Was due on a couple of days ago and no signs as of yet. I am normally clockwork and have been for years. Really confused

@TangBloodyFastic looks like a positive! Was the second test a different brand? They are all different sensitivities. It could also have malfunctioned... Maybe do another test if you can! X

Got my BFP today! Can’t believe it, I was sure AF was in the way as felt so crampy. Cycle 8 for us.
Didn’t manage to hold out and surprise DH at Christmas though.Xmas Blush

@IslayBrigid yes it was a different brand so don't know which to believe. Sad
Still no sign of AF either. I don't have any more tests so will have to wait a few days. Guess there will be a more definitive answer by then anyway..? Never done this before so am a bit clueless
