Hi
TTC baby number one . I had EWCM yesterday , so thinking I’ll probably ovulate today or tomorrow ?
Going by Ovia I should be testing Christmas Day, but I think I’ll wait til Boxing Day just in case it’s a BFN I don’t want to feel down on a festive happy day !

Anyone joining me ? Or around that time , maybe Xmas Eve ?

👶🏼 🎄

@Peach7744 so sorry 💐
I’d say you could use a First Response Early one, they detect pregnancy about 5 days before your period is due if you get the sensitive ones xx

1dpo today! Finally in the TWW! 13 day LP so trying to work out when I can start testing!

Started 6DPO last cycle. I think I can hold off until 9dpo (out with work), or do I really really try to hold out until Christmas Day? But then theres copious amounts of alcohol on Christmas Eve.

I half expect to come on with a bang on Christmas Day.

hi op, sorry havn't had the chance to reply. tbh i really have no idea. i got incredibly lucky 1st time... took a guess i would be ovulating as i was mid cycle, had sex twice a day for 2 days & two weeks later had a bfp lolXmas Grin taking a chance this time two as i have no idea when im ovulating but hoping it wasn't before the 8thSad could very well be messed up this month as last period was 3 weeks late ( happens every once in a while.. stress i guess lol) so not really sure when i will ovulate this month

Makeafamily19 · 14/12/2019 08:11

Your CM changes once you have ovulated yes @ItsEmily so if it's now creamy you have probably ovulated. It does vary per person though and you can have random CM anytime.
Only way to really know is to use OPKs and/ or temping (your temp spikes when you ovulate then stays higher).

Hello ladies, how are you all? I'm 7dpo today. Itching to test!! 😂

My resting heart rate has jumped from 62bpm to 68bpm today, is it a sign?!? 😂

BabyB19 · 19/12/2019 15:15

Hi girls...I may have already tested....

Whyhaveidonethis · 19/12/2019 15:21

Woo Hoo. Congrats. How many dpo are you

BabyB19 · 19/12/2019 15:29

I'm 4+1 if my app is right, I thought I wasn't due until Christmas hence joining this thread but I had a bit of spotting the week before which I had discounted and shouldn't have by the looks of things as I've been testing positive since the weekend 🥰 good luck to you all! Xx

LosingtheTTCplot · 19/12/2019 15:29

@BabyB19 beautiful lines! Congratulations xx

NCON · 19/12/2019 15:31

@whyhaveidonethis I'm 7DPO also and absolutely dying to test! So silly as I know even if I was pregnant it's too early but it's killing me not to test today 😂

Congratulations @babyB19 🎉🎉🎉 looks very strong too 😊

Whyhaveidonethis · 19/12/2019 15:37

@NCON I am on my way home and have 4 FRER which I guarantee I will use tonight!! Smh. I know its too early but still.....

Lexie365 · 19/12/2019 15:40

BabyB19 congrats!!

LosingtheTTCplot · 19/12/2019 15:44

@NCON @Whyhaveidonethis I’m 8dpo today and have tested since 6DPO Confused

I’m pretty sure I see a line and really want to crack out a FRER but I’m pretty sure it will be negative!

Testing Christmas Day / Boxing Day
GaaaaarlicBread · 19/12/2019 15:54

I’m only about 7 DPO too and I am sure I’ve had a few symptoms but trying not to think about it . I’m gonna try and hold off until Boxing Day 😭💕

Beautiful lines @BabyB19 ! What symptoms did you have ?

OP posts:
NCON · 19/12/2019 15:59

@Whyhaveidonethis I know I have 4 FRER sitting at home waiting on me 🙈 I'll most likely do one myself too! So stupid but I simply have to 😂 keep me posted if you do take one. Fingers crossed!

@LosingtheTTCplot I'm not gonna lie I have been using IC since 5DPO haha not even a sniff of a line but it kinda just makes me feel better 😂 I wanna break out the FRER now too 🙈 yours does look like a hint of a line! Fingers crossed!!!

Whyhaveidonethis · 19/12/2019 15:59

Maybe @LosingtheTTCplot, very very faintly

LosingtheTTCplot · 19/12/2019 16:04

I have an IC ready for the morning and then I think if there’s anything on that I’ll whip out a FRER on Saturday.

I’ll Have to sneak to the shops for a digi for use on Christmas morning for hubby. This is all if there’s actually a line on the other tests! 😂

BabyB19 · 19/12/2019 16:06

@itsemily mainly the cramping tbh, constant cramping for days, nothing severe but definitely strong enough not to ignore. Now I've got back ache, horrible taste in my mouth, nose bleed and feel knackered! 🤣 xx good luck xx

Whyhaveidonethis · 19/12/2019 16:09

@NCON I'll test around 8pm probably. Gonna have a few hour hold and see even though I know its pointless

LosingtheTTCplot · 19/12/2019 16:20

makes mental note to log on at 8pm to see @NCON’s test results!

NCON · 19/12/2019 19:31

Not even a sniff of a line 😂 I'm not even disappointed cos I know how silly it is to test this early lol. Trying to will a line into place with hard stares at the FRER and at times have thought I seen something but there is absolutely nothing there 🤦🏻‍♀️ really gonna try very hard to not test again till Christmas day. 🤞🏼 For everyone 😊

Whyhaveidonethis · 19/12/2019 20:25

Snap @NCON 😂😂 I knew it was far too soon but they were burning holes in my bathroom cabinets!! 😂
