@CarlyAM that was meant to say "hardly find it"

CarlyAM · 20/12/2020 15:35

@dano99 good work holding out, I think it’s the best way to get a good strong answer. I sort of wish I hadn’t tested so early as all I’ve done since is worry :/ I’m doing the same on Tuesday and hoping for a darker line. Sounds very promising for you though!

It's so hard to hold out! I have to run and pee just so then once my FMU is gone I don't end up grabbing a test

All my fingers crossed for you! I'm sure your line will get darker and darker with your sticky bean!! ❤️

CarlyAM · 20/12/2020 16:09

@dano99 LOL! ‘Run and pee’, made me giggle! Got everything crossed for both of us. I will need to adopt the run and pee method tomorrow!

Congratulations on the bfps!

Due Xmas day here. Trying to hold out until at least Xmas Eve.

Annannanna · 21/12/2020 09:07

Aww I'm out, BFN and spotting this morning. Sad
Very sad but trying to look on the bright side, lots of booze and no morning sickness over a Christmas and New Year for me!

Good luck everyone else xx

@Ralala me too! trying my best to ignore the symptom spotting but its so hard Xmas Angry

MariaA11 · 21/12/2020 09:38

@Annannanna sorry to hear that 😓 first day of AF is always the hardest. Have a little cry and a glass of wine - that’s what I did! Just enjoy Christmas and then we’re back on next month! Xxx

Ralala · 21/12/2020 10:18

@hopefully2021 symptom spotting is the worst!!!

Annannanna · 21/12/2020 11:49

Isn’t it so cruel that when AF arrives to spoil your baby plans, it is accompanied by pms that makes you weepy & grumpy anyway.

I am being very short with any moaning clients at work!!

@Ralala I'm the same, well I'll be 12DPO on Boxing Day so that's obviously when Ovia has said I can test but trying to resist the urge to test on Christmas Eve just incase! Have you had any symptoms? x

KerryW87 · 21/12/2020 17:15

@Ralala Just cramps since 4DPO but that's not entirely unlike me for most cycles :( How about you?

I know I'm weak and will be testing and likely disappointing myself Christmas Eve 😂🙈 x

KerryW87 · 21/12/2020 17:16

@Ralala As if I've just read that message I sent and thought it was a reply from you....and replied to my OWN bloody message 😂😂😂 Is stupidity a pregnancy symptom? 😂🤞

Ralala · 21/12/2020 17:26

@KerryW87 nah nothing. Some cramping and a little light headed at times but that’s normal for my cycle at this stage . Just trying to hold out and not waste my frers!

Charlab · 21/12/2020 20:03

@Annannanna sorry to hear about AF, I hope you are ok x

CarlyAM · 21/12/2020 21:16

@Annannanna Sorry to see your AF came, make the most of Christmas with some bubbly, and get ready for an active January 😉 Sending hugs x

Annannanna · 21/12/2020 21:48

Ah thank you. I’m going to have a day of feeling sad & then move onto the next cycle & happy Christmas Cheer.
Best of luck with your bfp’s!

I'd like to join if I may. 7DPO and planning to test on Xmas morning at 11DPO so I know if I can drink 😬 this is only cycle 1 of trying though so trying not to get too hopeful. My nipples are like bullets constantly and so sore, and I've got cramping on one side a bit like ovulation pain but doesn't feel like pms pain. Who knows though, like the rest of you have said- anything could be a symptom! The body plays tricks on you!

KerryW87 · 22/12/2020 07:49

@Emmgrem

Hi! Ah exciting, here's hoping it's a very short time TTC for you then before you get your BFP 💕 I'm exactly the same as you this cycle - 11DPO on Christmas Day. Will likely cave and start testing Christmas Eve but don't take my advice on that...it just drives you crazy for longer 😂🙈 I've been TTC just over a year however not quite - sadly lost my wee boy at 18 weeks in July, and this will be our 5th month TTC since then.

That's the most frustrating part! AF symptoms and pregnancy symptoms are basically the same...I wish there was a clearer indication like your pee turned bright purple 😂 Will keep everything crossed for you! X

Charlab · 22/12/2020 13:24

Not sure if I will be able to last until Christmas Day to tell my partner I am pregnant. I've just had to come home from work after heaving in the car and had to pull over to be sick! Now home with splitting headache and nausea. Has anyone else had sickness so early? I'm around 4 weeks.

Toastedsesame · 22/12/2020 13:46

I'm 7dpo today, foolishly testing already Grin can'y help myself, but swear I can see a shadow.

dano99 · 22/12/2020 13:49

I'm going to catch up on the thread his evening but just needed to tell someone (not telling other half yet) that I tested today I think 10dpo and was the whitest BFN not even a glimmer of hope 😔 I know it's early but it felt like a kick in the teeth I've had so many symptoms this month and had such high hopes from using the clear blue advanced for the first month...

Fingers crossed still I suppose... lots of love to you all ❤️ so glad this community is here for support ❤️

CarlyAM · 22/12/2020 14:53

@dano99 Sorry to hear about BFN, but maybe just a bit too early? Wait a couple of days and test again. You’re not out until AF arrives! Xxx

Tootiredtosleep1 · 22/12/2020 15:19

Hi ladies,

Could I join your thread?
I'm new here and I have no idea what I'm doing so bear with me 😂

I think I'm around 6/7 dpo today so I will be 9 or 10 dpo Christmas day. I'm planning to test then with a frer even though it's early (don't judge my poas addiction lol)
Getting a bfp on Christmas day would be pretty awesome! 😁 Fx to all Xx
