Hello fellow tccers, so today is officially 1DPO for me, offically my favorite and most hated part of the cycle.

Got my LH surge 2 days ago, going to keep doing opks just to be on the safe side. Really hoping that this month I will actually hold off testing until AF is due.

AF due on 26th. Anyone fancy symptom watching with me 🤩

Hey 🙌🏼

I'm due on the 29th - not got my static to say I'm ovulating yet but I'll happily do the tww with you!

I always find the first week a breeze! Then the second week I test 2 times a day so I've promised myself not to test until day of af this time!

Kkd85 · 13/12/2019 20:49

Hi I think I'm due on 23rd or the 24th I can be between 28/29 day cycle. I don't do opks or that jus DTD lol have been ttc number 2 for jus over 2 years now was driving myself nutty with opks and using too many pregnancy tests lol so don't ever test till I'm late. Had pul pregnancy start of April this year and then a MC at end of sept. Now taking high dose folic acid and baby aspirin. Vitamin d is low also so having to take that. Consultant said low vit d can triple MC rate so here's hoping all this to will result in a sticky pregnancy xxx

@Wackadoodle84 we are cycle twins, I’m 1 DPO today and due on 26th December.

This is cycle 5 trying for baby number 1. Starting to get a little disheartened by the entire thing, I had pie in the sky plans and being able to announce to family at Christmas.

On a positive note I got my first peak fertility smiley face on clear blue fertility monitor 2 days ago... so fingers crossed for the best Xmas prezzie !

Are you ladies testing early or holding out ? I’m not sure whether to leave it or test xmas eve so at least I can drink Xmas day and drown my sorrows 😂

MrsMeow2019 · 13/12/2019 21:22

@Wackadoodle84 @HalfPenny28 just reread your posts 😆 maybe we can help each other hold off on testing. Am exactly the same next week will be fine and dandy from 6 days befor I’m due I start testing and can’t think of anything else 🤦‍♀️

DidYouSayTea · 13/12/2019 21:29

I'm 2-3dpo but happy to join still! Due to test Christmas Day/Boxing Day

Wackadoodle84 · 14/12/2019 17:06

@MrsMeow2019 how do you find the fertility monitor? Am thinking of investing for next month if needed.

I will be completely reasonable about testing until about 8dpo, then all sense goes out the window and I tend to become a poas maniac 😂🤦‍♀️ Am planning to test at 12dpo (Xmas eve). Fingers crossed we make it till then !

@HalfPenny28 hopefully we can manage to keep each other away from the tests until at least AF due date. Have you been TTC for long?

@didyousaytea welcome aboard. Fingers crossed for bfps all round

@Kkd85 so sorry about your mc, TTC can just be awful sometimes, I tried for 4 years for my first pregnancy. Fingers and toes crossed for an Xmas bfp for you xx

@wackadoodle84 I’m not sure on it yet, I’ve used it for two cycles , first one i just kept getting flashing smilies (high fertility) and no peak, before that I tried internet cheapy OPKs but had no positive results I struggled to find tome to do them whereas the clear blue are FMU and a lot easier.

Seeing the peak has made me feel more positive as a sign I’m actually ovulating so fingers crossed!

Lol I’m a bit of an addict too and never thought I would be, going to try and hold out until Xmas eve ... which will be 2 days before AF and if it’s bfn I shall drink lots of gin Xmas day 😆

Wackadoodle84 · 16/12/2019 14:08

@MrsMeow2019 hopefully this will be your month, being able to use fmu with the clear blue sounds good to me.

Woke up from last nights night shift just now with an almighty urge to do a test.... at 4 dpo! Am just being ridiculous now 😂

ChampooPapi · 16/12/2019 14:11

@Wackadoodle84 hopping on. Af was the 26th last months so I'm working for that as my period due date this month. But have no idea when I ovulated or when my period will come as was pregnant for three months, but ended in miscarriage, then was on depo the last 18 months before that so no af.

Before that I was pregnant for 9 months so it is a bloody mystery

ceebee21 · 16/12/2019 14:17

Hiya, can I join?

I think I am about 2DPO, but I tend to only have a LP of 11 days... so AF due on Xmas day!!!

I am trying to temp, but no spike so far which is odd!! x

Wackadoodle84 · 16/12/2019 16:02

Hi @ceebee21 I think we were on the same thread last month, fingers crossed it will be bfps for us both this month.

How strange that you have got no temp spike, are you using opks?

@ChampooPapi so sorry to hear about your miscarriage. Hope this will be your lucky month too

Well I managed to resist testing for today, I have loads of tests in the house this month which is going to make it a lot harder to avoid premature testing

OP posts:
ceebee21 · 16/12/2019 16:07

@Wackadoodle84 probably - I lose track of which posts I am on haha

yeah, and got a positive on Friday and Saturday... so no idea, guess wait and see what I get tomorrow morning, really hope it does spike. xx

MrsMeow2019 · 16/12/2019 19:36

@Wackadoodle84 lol I almost did a test earlier and stopped myself like what am I expecting to see 😆

MrsMeow2019 · 16/12/2019 19:37

@ceebee21 @ChampooPapi 👋 welcome 🙏 fingers crossed for BFPs!

ChampooPapi · 16/12/2019 19:46

@MrsMeow2019 @Wackadoodle84 thanks ladies, you guys are the best 💜

ChampooPapi · 16/12/2019 19:48

also waves @ceebee21

We've definitely been on a few conception threads together. Good luck this month 💪 all the baby dust I can muster goes out to you ladies

jenna30 · 16/12/2019 20:05

Hi ladies can i please join? Im on my 1 DPO today. I got my first positive on a OPK test on Saturday just gone. TWW now. Be interesting to see everyone else's experience during the TWW.

Whyhaveidonethis · 16/12/2019 21:36

@Wackadoodle84 @MrsMeow2019 I'm also a cycle buddy. Cd4 today. AF due on 26th.keep saying I won't test early but I know I will!!! 😂

MrsMeow2019 · 16/12/2019 21:43

@Whyhaveidonethis me too! I'm currently weighing up whether to test on Sunday....10 DPO or leave it till xmas eve morning 12 DPO (as I'm at work all day and then out at a family thing where there will be a lot of gin) or just forget the entire thing drink what I please and test on boxing day if AF hasn't show...

Logical brain vs TTC crazy brain

I've just ordered a load of IC prig tests as well after saying I wouldn't....

@jenna30 welcome ! hope you get your BFP.

All aboard the Xmas BFP train!

Whyhaveidonethis · 16/12/2019 21:46

@MrsMeow2019 I ordered 4 FRER as they are on offer on Amazon! I plan Xmas eve too but let's see once I get to 8dpo!!!

MrsMeow2019 · 16/12/2019 21:52

@whyhaveidonethis I've got 1 FRER and 1 Clearblue from previous cycles. I tried to use them all up last month to stop myself testing early this month, it hasn't worked.....hehe

I'll be back to googling 'symptoms 5DPO' from tomorrow....I think someone needs to take my access to WIFI away

Hope you're all having a good week and have lovely things planned for xmas BFPs or not x

jenna30 · 16/12/2019 21:58

@MrsMeow2019 thank you!! Likewise. Has anyone had any dpo symptoms that they can share? Forgive me if i have missed any posts where they have been mentioned. Im only 1dpo and driving myself crazy looking for symptoms 😅

Wackadoodle84 · 16/12/2019 22:30

@mrsmew2019, I’m here currently googling symptoms at 5dpo 🙈. I need someone to lock up my tests and slap some sense into me badly. We can do this, Xmas eve testing, only 8 days to go

@Whyhaveidonethis welcome! Your name is literally what runs through my head moments after I poas at a ridiculously early dpo 🤣. How many cycles have you been TTC?

@ChampooPapi @jenna30 welcome, looking forward to symptoms spotting with you all over the next 2 weeks.

OP posts:
Whyhaveidonethis · 17/12/2019 07:19

@Wackadoodle84 it runs through mine too!! 😂 This is cycle 17. I'm 41 though so I'm probably never going to have a viable pregnancy. I've been PG 3 times since May but the have all been early MC/CPs. Losing hope if I'm honest but still put myself through it each month.

Thistle23 · 17/12/2019 14:11

I got my period at 10dpo Angry not got a clue what's happening , I'm usually exact every month with my period .
