Christmas BFP’s positive thoughts (let’s support each other)

[Idreamof2more]

Hi ladies, have started this thread for anyone that has not had their bfp this month but is going into their next cycle positively hoping for their Christmas or New Years bfp. Let’s support each other..laugh/cry. No such thing as TMI. Let’s celebrate together! Xxx

@Idreamof2more everyone’s body is different but what I know It’s creamy or sticky it’s normally as a result of the 2nd estrogen surge around 4/5 dpo.. I wouldn’t go by cm for pregnancy indicators. I got my BFP this month and I was fairly dry after about 5dpo ovulation still am!!

@Tabbycat92 I can see a line tbh! Have you retested today ?

@Slk3558 coincidentally mine has all dried up today as well at 6 dpo. Who knows lol. Good luck all xx

Okay so looks like me and DP are pregnant 🤰 I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Mines the top one. Came up within 30 seconds. Partners is the bottom one. Came up about 3 minutes looks like we have dodgy tests x

@slk3558 no not today! Am holding out for tomorrow morning 😬 congratulations to you BTW!

Well AF arrived yesterday, waking me up at 6.30 with period pains. Not very festive. I had to give myself a serious talking to, to appreciate everything I have for once!

Hope everyone else had lovely (and AF-free) Christmasses

Think mine will def be arriving. All my exciting new pg related symptoms have vanished. X

BFN on Christmas day 😩 I'm now 1 day over-due but I feel AF is looming.
How's everyone else?

Oh sorry about the BFN @Tabbycat92. I’m on cd4 just waiting for stupid period to be over. Also waiting for delivery of a bbt thermometer, conceive plus lube and god knows what else as have decided to chuck everything at ttc this month!

Hi all, this month was my first month using OPK’s and it looks like I ovulated really early (CD9/10) (28 day cycle) I’ve been continuing to test for the rest of the month but haven’t had another peak.

I’m due on Sunday and yesterday I started getting cramps. I went to the toilet and had brown CM and spotting. Cramps continued throughout the day and evening but no sign of AF (which I’m pleased about as 7 days early is far too early, I’d only have a 21 day cycle this month if so)

Today, still no sign of AF, still have slight cramping and am still getting brown CM in my knickers that I haven’t had before.

Tonight I feel absolutely exhausted even though I’ve barley done anything all day. I’m thirsty constantly and have a slight headache (I never get headaches)

I did a FRER this morning (6 days before AF is due) and it was a very stark negative.

I guess AF is just coming early, but it’s so frustrating, if she’s going to rear her ugly head I’d rather she just got it over with! I really want to have a few drinks with DH of an evening as we’re both off work until next week but I daren’t until AF shows!

How’s everyone else getting on?

Tested again last night.. got some frer coming tomorrow. Do people this this is real or crappy tests?? My bleed could well have been IB and by calculations I should be 5 weeks today.

oh, sorry girls! I am on the same boat I am afraid. I got BFN all along, today I am due and had some spotting so AF is coming! Hopefully we will have better luck next month.

@SweetShopSurprise you could be bleeding because of ovulation? or could be IB?

@mich20208 that looks positive! congrats! :)

@mich20208 I'd say that's real!! Woohoo. Your previous post would likely be an evap line. I'm excited to see what your frer test says!

The previous post, meaning your partners result

I hope so. Feeling super nervous about the frer today. I don't think I ever want to see a stark white test again. Xx

@Mamifun, I did think that re ovulation but I don’t normally get this and I haven’t had a positive OPK test again after my peak earlier on in the month

So at 4.15am I was woken with such bad cramps, I thought this is it, AF is here. I have suspected endometriosis and my period pains can get very bad (almost passing out/ vomiting bad some months) so I blearily, half asleep took 2 ibuprofen and fell back to sleep, well tried to but it took a while as the pains cramping was pretty bad and I had to wait for the ibuprofen to kick in!

This morning I went to the toilet expecting a blood bath....nothing?! That is so unusual (for me) like if they are that bad and intense, AF is there. I also can’t understand why I’m having cramps like this when I’m not due on for another 5 days. I thought because I ovulated early in my cycle, AF might be coming earlier and that may well be the case but if so, where the hell is she?!

Took a FRER and I think I could be imagining it to be fair but I thought today there might just be the faintest shadow of a second line and I really do mean so faint, only in certain light so it’s probably just an evap line.

Congrats on your BFP @mich20208 !

FRER BFN!! That's me done now.. not going to over concentrate on ttc again. Going to get some tests in the new year 2 years is far too long x

Hope everyone on here had a nice New Years (even if it was a very quiet one this year!). Coming up to ovulation day for me - on the 6th. Fingers crossed for this month

No words!! 🙏

Congratulations!!

Congrats @Idreamof2more!

Thank you both 💓💓

@Idreamof2more congratulations!!

Oh congratulations @Idreamof2more that’s wonderful news! Wishing you a happy and worry-free pregnancy
