TTC DECEMBER 2021 🎅🏼

[SantiagoSister]

Hi all, just thought I’d make a lead on thread from the TTC NOVEMBER 2021 group for us all to continue on. Wishing you the best of luck for a lovely little Christmas miracle ✨🎅🏼

@Babyboom1990 sorry about your chemical last month. I hope this is your BFP. I would not trust the first for now, only because you have had a 2nd negative. But I would definetly give it another 2 days and test again. Good luck xx

@keepingmyfingerscrossef I can totally relate - I've been getting BFNs since August as well! I was tempted to test today (10 dpo) and ofc, BFN. I was on antibiotics for h pylori too in May I believe as I was having issues with my stomach too. I totally understand the feeling. I really do hope it does happen for us one day xx

[quote keepingmyfingerscrossef]@ttcbabya 10 dpo could be early? Wait for a few days. When is your at due? [/quote]
I'm due between 6th - 8th. So yes, still quite early. It was an FRER and was hoping to be one of those lucky ladies who get theirs early. I think I'll just wait to see AF arrives now...

@Babyboom1990

Hi everyone I just wanted to jump on I really hope you don’t mind!

Period is due on Tuesday and got this positive test this morning at about half 10 second urine of the day, then I took another a few hours later and completely negative.

Does the bfp look like an evaporation line 😫😫 last month I had a chemical so I’m praying so hard for a positive!!! Baby dust to you all 🥰❤️

I would not trust the one that looks positive hun. Sorry :( just from my personal experiences, I have had the same things a couple of times with clear blue. When it was actually negative. Some people do say getting a pink dye test is always better. May be that's true. But my friend had her bfp on clear blue and a lot of other women I know.

Try using a pink dye test if your period is late.. keeping my fingers crossed for you

Aww!! Glad to know there's someone with a similar story I will pray that we both get better in terms of this stomach thing and get our positives soon. Please keep me posted when you test! Do you have any symptoms by the way?

@ttcbabya oh! My at is due around the same time!!! I really want to see how it goes this time as have been having issues past two three months! Irregular and not much flow. Past two months- it was mainly pinkish and watery.. especially last month! Do you have any symptoms? I do feel mild headache, extreme bloating and sore boobs.. but you what? Am actually convinced that it's all my hormones and stomach related issue. So am not giving much attention to it.. would love to you how you feeling and then are you testing

@ttcbabya sorry I mean- I would love to know how you feeling and when are you testing

@keepingmyfingerscrossef I know - I can't believe just how similar our journeys are. Really hope we get that BFP and healthy 9 months soon, literally crossing everything for it xxx

Symptoms-wise, not really other than mild cramping a few days which I was hoping would be implantation cramping. Other than that, no symptoms 😣 I did use preseed for the first time this cycle so really hoping that that helps!

@keepingmyfingerscrossef I think now i won't test until my AF due so around Monday/ Tuesday is when I'll test again. So nervous as im sick and tired of seeing the BFNs

@ttcbabya I will pray for you 😊 now testing makes me so nervous! I don't even feel like testing anymore to be honest. I feel if I get my periods, no need for testing. Previously, I had all the symptoms and what I thought was an implantation bleed! I was so so sure that I am pregnant but it was a negative. So I am kind of just moving with the flow now. Waiting patiently. I'll keep in touch and let you know what happens for me next week

@keepingmyfingerscrossef omg this was me two cycles ago! Was totally convinced I must be only for it to be BFN! Sucks. Likewise - I'll keep you posted too. Good luck xxx

Hey all,

Hoping I can jump on this with you guys, although I'm awful at keeping up sometimes! I'm using OPKs this month and got my static smiley this morning, DTD last night and prepared DH for a busy weekend

Anyone else ovulating around this time? Hoping there's someone I can connect with to get through the TWW!

Fingers crossed for you all..i'm due AF on the 14th but ovulated around 28th nov, which is 2 days earlier than i expected.. I may start testing next week depending on how i feel..emotions are all over the place but may make an appt with the gp in the new yr if unsuccessful.. a bit of a personal question but do you guys DTD once a day around ovulation or more...

Also..those with BFP..have you noticed any change in your CM? If so how long after DTD..ty!

Hi ladies, hope you don't mind me jumping on here  we are ttc baby #2 first cycle, I think cd10 today? @MummyBear405 I am due to ovulate on Tuesday (hopefully), so not too far away from you!

@peanutbaba aww awesome! We're TTC #2 as well and this is our second cycle (I have a feeling we missed ovulation last month!). How old is your little one?

@Justkeepswimming20 we only manage once a day as we have a 1 year old so hoping that's enough!

Anyone in their tww? When is your af due and how you feeling? Any symptoms?

@MummyBear405 we are also TTC #2. Our girl turned 1 on Monday. Its so hard with being tired and trying to find the time isn't it?! Or this this just me. Babies ruin your sex life 🤣

I have a 2 year old and can totally relate! It's really difficult to find the time time..i am approx 5/6 dpo atm..so still quite early!

@MummyBear405 my little one is 2 soon. Your little one is 1? Good luck for this month, I am using digital OPKs as well so fingers crossed xx

@Keepingmyfingerscrossed I am 5dpo so to early for symptoms. My AF is due on the 13th. What about u? X

@Glago2017 my af is due in three days and am having pre periods like cramps.. I do have some unusual symptoms though. Sore boobs dry skin and itching, mild headaches, exhaustion.. but I am trying so hard not to give any attention to these as I do not want to get my hopes up! 🙈 pms or pregnant! It drives you crazy!!

How are you feeling by the way? Too early to say anything?

@Keepingmyfingerscrossed I'm 7dpo with AF due on the 11th. Been having cramps and sore boobs the last couple of days, trying not to symptom spot but very difficult! I only usually get symptoms like these a day or two before AF so hoping it's something positive. How are you feeling today?

Hey girls! Had a break from November TTC as AF turned up early for me but I kept up with the thread and oh my goodness all the BFPs congrats guys! Been DTD alot the cycle 😂 currently 7dpo, not testing until next weekend, dont want to test too early like I always do! I hope we get our Christmas BFPs, I'm defo gonna try keep quiet and put it under the tree for OH if I get mine :)

@newjourney21 oh that sounds promising! 🥰 keeping my fingers crossed for you!! My af is due in three days. I have been having some cramps but this tww has been little strange for me. I have had some unusual symptoms too like sore boobs and fatigue. Am trying hard not to symptom spot as I have been suffering from h pylori and the frustrating part is- my h pylori symptoms (since July or august) have been like pg symptoms. I ended up going to the gp for hcg beta and all came back negative. Found out h pylori in Oct end! Lol! Plus my periods have been very different (irregular, less flow and pinkish watery) for past two months. Had hcg beta again in Nov and negative!

So am just thinking it will happen if it has to this time. I do really hope though! 🥰 I am just not ready to test!
