Anybody else hoping for a Christmas rainbow?

[miracleatchristmas]

Hello!

My DP and I have been TTC for 7 months now - had one chemical loss 3 months ago and no luck since.
We are PRAYING for a Christmas baby miracle. That would be incredible 🌈 👶 is anybody else also hoping for a Christmas surprise? ❤️
Would love to follow each others journeys!

I got my positive OPK on Friday 11th so we have DTD as much as possible to cover ourselves..
Fingers crossed!

❤️

I am 🙋‍♀️. I had a very early MC last month at around 5 weeks. I’m hoping we might be one of the lucky ones who can fall again straight away.

This Christmas is already going to be a bit shit, but we were planning on telling our parents, I find it quite upsetting that we now won’t be able to unless we have a Christmas
Miracle.

Hii

I've been trying but not properly shall I say, as I miscarried my twins at 8+3 in August. This month was a bit more active in the bedroom around ovulation which was also Friday. Been feeling absolutely awful since though 🤢

Hope you both get your Christmas bfps 💕

Hi 🥰

I'm also hoping for a Christmas BFP!

Recently come off of the pill, this would be our second month trying. Got my positive OPK on Thursday 10th and have been following the Sperm Meets Egg Plan. AF due Christmas Eve!

Fingers crossed for everyone 🤞🏻

I'm also praying for a Christmas miracle. Been trying to conceive of and on for a year now. I suffered a early miscarriage in September so really praying for my rainbow this month.

Fingers crossed for us all here🤞🏾

Same here hope this will be a lucky month for everyone.

I am 5DPO and this is my first cycle.

Good luck everyone!

I should have been having my twelve week scan this week. Not a nice thing to think about, it was such good timing for Christmas. But we move! In the TTW now and not feeling like I did first time so I think I'm out. I hope some of get a lovely BFP for Xmas!

I’ve had 3 losses this year and we had one final try as we intend to take a break from TTC in the new year as it’s consuming me.

Period due 16 December and absolutely no symptoms, not even a twinge. So not hopeful but it’s the end of an era x

Bless you all. I really hope and pray that we will got our little rainbows. Xx

I'm also in my TWW currently. I got my peak Tuesday just gone so not entirely sure when I'd have actually ovulated.

@miracleatchristmas I thought I was finding the two week wait ok, and now that it's Monday and I'm back at work I'm realising that it was probably feeling ok because it was the weekend and I was somewhat distracted!

When do you think you'll test? X

@Hmmm22 oh I feel your pain! I'm feeling the same. Was told yesterday by the NHS testing app that I'm required to self isolate for 10 days so going to find this extremely hard 😭🤣 not sure when I'll test really. I'm hoping I'll be able to hold out until 22nd! Xx

@miracleatchristmas oh man that sucks, what bad timing!! I felt like the whole time we was focusing on dtd at the right time and then it being the weekend I didn't really think about how long away testing is!

AF is due Christmas Eve, but to avoid Christmas disappointment I think I'll test a little earlier and test on the 20th or 21st. Your peak OPK was the day after mine so we are on very similar timescales! Xx

How is everyone feeling? Wish there was a way for our body to give us an official yes or no during the TWW! Xx

@Hmmm22 ahhh wouldn't that just be great?!
I absolutely hate that pregnancy symptoms & pms symptoms are exactly the same, like whyyy?!

I think I'm 4/5dpo. Had horrible cramps yesterday on left side of stomach and also my lower back was quite sore. I feel like my nipples are really sensitive n painful to touch. I've had this for a few days now so I assume it's the progesterone after ovulation 🤦🏻‍♀️
Again, whhyyy?!

How about you? X

@Angelbabies4 so frustrating isn't it!

I'm about 5 dpo too. Yesterday I was having a weird cramping type pain that felt like it was in a V shape starting at the top of each hips if that makes any sense, and then today I had a pinching type feeling in what I imagine to be my uterus, but that went after a couple of minutes.

However, I had some pretty strange symptoms last month which made me suspect I was pregnant so I don't even know what to think at this point haha! Trying not to symptom spot, but you can't ignore how your body is feeling haha!

When do you plan on testing? Xx

@Hmmm22 oooo sounds promising. Let's hope little bean is getting snug in there

With my last pregnancy I got a bfp at 7dpo which I would have thought was too early but the only reason I tested was because I usually hate sour cream pringles n the smell puts me off but I actually sat & enjoyed eating them which was really weird so thought let's test, n lo n behold there was a second line but with my luck I miscarried a few weeks later 🤦🏻‍♀️

This time I want to hold out till I notice something weird again & atm what's weird is being awake at this time which I normally never do. & my body feels so itchy, especially my belly button. 🤦🏻‍♀️🙁 Feels horrible. I want to sleep but can't get comfortable

Oh dear, how long has this post become lol sorry. But yeah I'll wait it out till AT LEAST 10dpo 🙊

How about you hun x

@Angelbabies4 oh wow 7dpo is early isn't it!! I'm so sorry for your loss, I can't even imagine what it feels like to go through that!

Are you still feeling all itchy today?? It could be hormones!

Well, I stupidly started testing at about 5dpo last cycle as I literally couldn't help myself, even though I knew I was being ridiculous. I just thought oh well what harm will it do haha. But this cycle I'm being more rational and I don't plan on testing until Sunday which will be 10dpo! Xx

Thanks hun @Hmmm22 I've had 4 miscarriages, and I've got a 3 year old girl. It's horrible to go through but I'm just grateful for what I've got tbh

Lol 5dpo is early isn't it. Best to wait it out & let the hormones rise. It's a nicer feeling when you get a dark line rather than squinting to see if it's there or not lol

I've had a really busy day today, so not had a chance to sit down n think about the itching lol after I posted on Mumsnet last night, I got up n had a shower cuz I thought this isn't going to let me sleep today. So felt better after it

Have you got anymore symptoms?xx

Hi all! 👋
Sorry for having disappeared the last few days 🙈 been so busy with work!
Glad that everyone's doing okay!

I'm 7DPO today (roughly, I think...) and really trying to stay positive..

I've been so calm about the TWW this month, but had a crazy thought today that I should POAS.. so took an internet cheapie and of COURSE it was negative 🙃😩

Trying to remain optimistic. I've never tested this early, but was scrolling through YouTube this afternoon and saw loads of videos of people getting their BFP this soon so think I was a bit influenced 🙈😅

I thought I'd got mine, but it looks like I got a false positive because the other 2 tests I took were negative

@EggnogAndAMincepie oh no! Sorry to hear that 😩 perhaps try again in the morning, with FMU? ❤️

Hi all.

Hoping for a Christmas rainbow here too.

Got a barely-there shadow on a cheap test this morning which disappeared once the test dried. Did a frer which showed a feint line. However I've done some cheap tests since (after holding a few hours) and suspect it may have been a chemical which has already gone wrong as they are totally, completely negative. I hope I'm wrong but time is going to drag until I can test with fmu tomorrow!

@Angelbabies4 I think I started testing that early as I felt like I needed to be doing something haha! Feeling more relaxed about it this time around as I know I've done all I can!

I had a weird sensation yesterday night but it's not been there much today. Just some pain on my right hand side but I had that last cycle! Also been getting hot flashes in my face which is so unlike me! How have you felt this evening?

@miracleatchristmas I feel like the YouTube videos make me sooo impatient haha! They are absolutely addictive though. Have you had any symptoms this month?

@EggnogAndAMincepie and @treesall how many dpo are you both? Fingers crossed you get that BFP over the next couple of days! Xx

@Hmmm22 I think I'm 12dpo. Pls cross your fingers for me!!
