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 ✨🎅🏼

Ah, so they’re 2 different tests.
I was planning to test with this one the day I miss my period (still have one left from last month).
Is this one ok?
@Cmacq32 what do you use?

@Glago2017 I can see a second line but verrrry faint, try again tomo but fingers and toes crossed for you!

Whoops I meant to write:

Wow, the rapid response ones aren’t at all sensitive, so the fact you have quite a clear line there is surely really encouraging?! Can you get a early result one to check?

The rapid response and early result tests are both made by First Response but the packaging is very similar. Which wouldn’t be so bad except sensitivity of the early result is reported to be 6-10iu, whereas rapid response is reported to be 100iu!

7dpo here - so hard not testing!!! 😩

@Decaffe I never knew this, always just picked up any first response. Can't wait to get home to see which one I tested with. Hoping it was the less sensitive one so I can try again 🤞

I only know because I got stung a month or two ago!

What I don’t understand is, three minutes isn’t exactly long to wait - who is desperate to save two minutes and 15 seconds?! 😆

The packaging is ridiculously similar!

@Decaffe this is my first time using these so didn't know either. Managed to nip to the shop for the early result tests and bnp!!! I don't quite believe it.

Oh that is fantastic, congratulations! I had a feeling it’d be a strong one!

@Glago2017
Congratulations!!!!🎈🍾 No drinking though 😂
Your bfp gives me hope!
Really hoping my pain today was due to implantation. It’s gone now.
Lasted for a few hours

@Glago2017
Did you have any symptoms in the 2 week wait? 😂
I can’t help myself

@Decaffe thank you so much, I wouldn't have know if it wasn't for u telling me and would still be wondering. 🥰
@alexalexalex18 nothing major. I did have a little more cm than normal but not hugely different, didn't have sore boobs which I usually do. However looking back I defo had/had brain fog. I was forgetting things and saying the wrong thing when I meant something else etc. Don't know if that is related but I'm saying it is. 🤣🤣

Ahh congratulations @Glago2017!! So exciting!! How many cycles did it take you could I ask???

@Glago2017 huge congratulations and best wishes ❤

🥰🥰🥰 @Glago2017 how lovely!

How are you planning to tell your DP/DH? Sometimes I daydream about how I would tell mine…

@tor88 this is only our 2nd cycle properly trying so feeling very lucky. X

@decaffe I have a tshirt my dd could put on saying 'big sister' (overly prepared 🤣) still doesn't feel real as don't feel any different. 😁 x

@Waldoyle yeah that's weird, going by those symptoms I'd have thought you'd have a positive by now! If there's still no second line by the start of next week maybe try the drs for a blood test?

@Glago2017 I can see a line but not sure if it's indent/evap, I literally never had any hint of a line on those tests until I was actually pregnant so could be a positive!? try again tomorrow/ Sunday xx

sorry @Glago2017 the page just updated and I saw your most recent post, congrats!!

@frenchie4002 thanks. I'll go get more tests for the weekend and if I've no joy by Monday I'll book an appointment with Dr.

@Glago2017 Yey, congratulations, this is a lovely, strong line!

I'm 6DPO and feeling lots of twinges but I think it's just a good case of 2ww symptom spotting.

This 2ww is really dragging by...

@ExPatHereForAChat

Fingers crossed! We’ve got this ♥️ All of us.

Af arrived here this morning, feeling disappointed as I really thought my symptoms the last week were leading to a bfp. Onto the next cycle I go

Morning all,
I have been on previous posts but missed the last one as I was moving. AF arrived yesterday so I'm back to being gutted again as now 9 months TTC just don't know how it's so easy for some people and so hard for others. I went to the doctors and fobbed said we had been TTC for 2 years. He sent me for 2 blood tests on different parts of the cycle. First 1 came back fine just waiting on the other, just felt like I needed to feel like I was doing something and getting answers if there was something I needed to know.
Think I don't help myself as I built it up in my head that I could have a Christmas miracle and now not.
Sending BFP's to you all xxxx

@Brunette1989 its very frustrating when some couples can just look at eachother and get pregnant. Ive been trying 6 months and af arrived this morning.

It'll all be worth it when we get our bfp. Hope you get yours this cycle x
