December babies ❄️☃️🧣🎊🌲

[BiscuitLover3678]

I’m almost 100% convinced I’m out now!

Really really hoping a December baby is the one. Anyone else?

@Charl881

I feel so sick this morning. I’m either pregnant or have a nasty bug. I literally feel really hungover after two small glasses of wine, not usual for me at all and was the first sign with my DS.

I've had the same for about a week - think there is a sickness bug doing the rounds but I hope it's your BFP! Fingers crossed xxx

@Charl881 in all honesty probably later today😂 with a cheapie.

@MrsGrealish have just seen your post on the other thread, thought it was this one.

I think I’m going to buy some more FRERs from the pharmacist this afternoon even though they’re more expensive than Amazon, just for some sort of peace of mind (yeah right).

@Graceybaby it’s probably that, I’ve also had a cold from DS and I seem to catch everything at the moment so wouldn’t surprise me.

I work in pharmacy and we only stock clear blue digital. Used to stock FRERs but probably got removed coz of all the complaints 😂..no I think they all went out of date.

Is it sad that I know which pharmacies stock which near me 😂

Another BFN for me again this morning so the FRER line must have been an indent.

Pretty sure I’m out now. Feeling sick again but if this was morning sickness then it would be showing on a test by now.

Good luck to everyone else testing this morning.

@Charl881 sorry for the BFN. When is AF due?

@Mummyme87 Friday or Saturday (should be Saturday but I ovulated a day earlier than usual so guessing Friday). I don’t know why I do this to myself every month 😭

BFN for me today too @Charl881.
I had a 12 day luteal stage last cycle, so I expect af anytime from Thurs-sat. Hoping it’s sat and gone back to normal though. I’m not going to test again now unless af doesn’t show, as pretty sure it will.

Really wish AF would just arrive now. Although still can’t decide if we’ll have next month off or not.

@BiscuitLover3678 aside from the late December birthday, do you think you would benefit from a month off?

I’m having an enforced month off it to be honest I think that will actually be really good for me mentally. I’m looking forward to not peeing on any sticks for a month. When I think how quickly the last four weeks have gone (apart from these last couple of days) then it doesn’t seem like a big deal to lose one cycle. Although I am sad this now means definitely no 2022 baby.

@BiscuitLover3678 it’s a hard decision as no one knows how long it will take them to conceive. You can always see how you feel after af finishes.

This makes sense and I can totally see that. I hope you feel a lot better for it too.

We were all sick this month so weren’t doing it as ‘properly’ anyway so I feel I probably can do another month. I think I’ll have to wait and see how we feel after Af.

Hi girls ,

Cycle 6 of TTC over here 👋

I've had a bit of a break from Mumsnet as I've been really struggling with the fact it hasn't happened yet and I don't think obsessing about it all has been helping, but I'm definitely finding it hard to stay away now I'm once again in the TWW!

How's everyone coping so far this month?
I keep thinking every twinge I'm getting is a positive sign 🤣 it's so hard not to symptom spot!

Hopefully we will have lots of December babies on this thread 💕

@Mariabombia how was the break? I need to do that next month at least I think.

I’m 10dpo but negative and think I’m out. Feeling pretty fed up about it all. Spotty and teary today, proper PMS symptoms for me.

It's crazy how all consuming it is. I thought I got a faint positive on one of the conceive plus tests I got this morning but it's no doubt in my head. I'll compare it to tomorrows and see if it darkens. AF needs to start and put me out of my misery

I had such bad period pains too yesterday like why? Still no bleeding. Body messing with my brain.
Ignore my rant.

Welcome @Mariabombia

Joining you all as well :)

Bfn today at 10dpo on frer, I know it is too soon but seeing so many getting bfp at 9 and 10 dpo makes me think i am out.
My hope is that in the evening of 9dpo I had pinching feeling for a couple of seconds in the left side of possoubly uterus, like if somebody is poking with a needle. With a hope of it being an implantation I have a hope of bfp at 11 or 12 dpo, but to be honest I think I go through this kind of thoughts every cycle and why would this cycle be any different...

Hope to see many more bfps this month!

@Mrslight yes for some reason I always think I’m out if I get a BFN at 10dpo as well. I think because there are so many early positives on here.

But for me today it’s not just the negative but the fact that PMS has started bang on cue. When I was TTC the first time around I don’t feel like I knew my body as well I do now which has pros and cons - but today it feels like a con because I know I am out before AF has even arrived which is just depressing. Before I would have lived in hope!

I’m joining and new here as I just got a positive from a first response but reading back maybe I shouldn’t trust it and do another ? As it was only a faint line?

@Charl881 yeah I can totally see what you mean! For me it is opposite - I normally don't get any pms symptoms until the day before my period starts, so I see not having any symptoms now as a sign that nothing exciting is happening there 🥲🤣

@Rosie399 do you have a photo of your test? :)

Sorry to hear about your chemical @Bubblesandballoons 😓

@MrsGrealish would you consider not tracking for ovulation this month and just dtd whenever you feel like it? Given you consider skipping this month altogether, may be for an experiment purposes you could just dtd if you feel like it whenever you want. I hear a lot about people getting pregnant when they just "relax" and do not "try". I'd like to try it but I always think "what if this is the month it was meant to be and I blew it by not tracking".

@Mrslight this is my test!

@Mrslight I know what you mean. But I wasn't planning on trying this month, didn't do OPKs at the start. Don't know what happened. I got sucked into it again 😂 I read that implantation shows 3-4 days after in urine? So 🤞. I'm a sweaty mess today.

@Rosie399 can we see a pic? Or take one tomorrow and it should be a little darker xx
