All I want for Christmas is a BFP- TTC September baby 🍁

[Roxybabe]

Hey ladies,

Thought I’d start a new Dec thread for us!! New thread… new cycle… new hope!!

❤️❤️

Hello! 👋🏼
Well wouldn’t a December BFP be the best Christmas present ever 🥺❤️

Hanging in there- official test date is weds so trying to hold on till then. Exhausted but otherwise no symptoms at all. It’s ivf so on lots of meds. That sucks as you have to test because even if it’s bfn, period won’t come till I stop the drugs.

nervous. This is 5th transfer. First gave us our son, three fails… and now this one xx

good luck to all of us!

I'm on cycle day 47. I got the covid vaccine on the day I would have been ovulating at the beginning of my cycle. It's the only reason I can explain for it to have knocked me off. I got a positive OPK on cycle day 38 after DTD on day 37. Negative preggo and negative ovulation since then so I'm waiting on AF to hurry TF up so we can get back on it!!

Sending all the positive vibes. I hope you get that BFP.

@Northbynorthbreast wishing you the best x

@ScotsBaby2 covid vaccine messed my cycle up for a bit last year! fingers crossed everything gets back on track soon

I just wanted to say Hi again as I briefly joined in on the September thread but then we stopped trying for a bit. Now we are back on the wagon!!!!

I'm 8dpo and trying to stop myself from reaching for the pregnancy test. I have no real symptoms to speak off - pretty sure it hasn't stuck this month!

Good luck everyone!

Thanks @Roxybabe for setting this up

Joining! Hoping for that BFP!!

Hello! Thanks for starting new thread. I've been quiet last few weeks since my last period. I'm on cycle 2. I haven't ovulated yet according to OPKS but hoping in the next few days! How is everyone?

TTC #1 cycle number 2. It's hard to not become obsessed with this journey, do you find that aswell? Praying for a Christmas BFP. Good luck ladies keep us posted x x x

I’m getting my December period out of the way and then starting TTC number 2. We have a 16mo girl. Told myself I wouldn’t get too wrapped up in it all but I’ve already started doing OPKs. Telling myself it’s so that I have a good idea of when ovulation is for when we start properly. I’ve not really been paying much attention to my cycles since we had our baby so for all I know it may have all changed. Last time we TTC it took us a year so fingers crossed it’s quicker this time.

Hi all. Hope it's to join even though it would currently be an August due date🤞 this is cycle 8 AF due on 5th Dec

Welcome welcome 🥰 Cycle 6 for me. Technically still waiting for AF for cycle 5 but I just know i’m out! Just want AF to hurry up to be honest. My period will be due around boxing day… what a lovely gift a BFP would be!!! Anybody trying something new this month? Or dropping somethings they tried last month.

I have everything crossed for you pal ❤️This is all pretty new for me so just used apps to track ovulation last month. This month I started using Clearblue ovulation sticks and it seem that the apps have been leading me way wrong which is a shame. What's your experience or do you have any tips?x x x

I very loosely used OPKs this month to see if it matched up with my app… didn’t see a peak so either missed it or ovulated earlier than I thought. Told myself I’d do it properly this cycle however I had a chemical pregnancy… so we must have DTD around the right time afterall! Therefore my plan this cycle is just go off my app again and DTD around when that says I’m fertile as it obviously worked last time!
AF will be due 21st December and I’m not testing early this time after the recent disappointment ☹️ so if AF doesn’t come I will probably test on 23rd as I’m due out for drinks that day so will need to know if I can drink alcohol or not 🤔
Anyone else think that December is a hard month to navigate… all my weekend plans seem to involve alcohol as it’s my birthday month too! 🙈

@Laul89 Yes December is crazy hard! Especially as everything seems to revolve around alcohol and nights out!

@Maime93 I'm in the same situation my tracking app shows a different date of ovulation then the OPKs.

@Roxybabe Hopefully this will be your month!!!

Hi again! This is my first month of 'proper' trying. CD4 currently. I have 3 day AF so it's gonna be a long old month.

Glad yo have you ladies on the journey.

Lx

Ooh I'd like to join please! MC in September, af arrived yesterday afternoon, so now hopeful for a Christmas BFP! This will be baby number 1, cycle 2. I'm 40 so time isn't on my side.

Ahh good to know about OPK'S I will take the aps with a pinch of salt in future! Yes December is a very tricky month for it 😂are you guys cutting back alcohol or stopping altogether? I must admit I have not cut back this weekend which probably isn't helping matters 😂xx

@Maime93 i feel like I’ve had a glass at every opportunity over the last 4 months in case it’s my last chance 🤣 never mid week or excessive but I haven’t held back!

Cycle 4 for me and probably ovulating in the next few days.. almost just want to be in the tww now, feel like this last bit goes on for ages!

Hi guys.
TTC #2 Cycle 2 CD13.
I loosely say "trying" were just not being as careful atm. Will probs get December and Xmas parties etc .... out the way before "trying" officially. Took 7months to conceive #1. We just go off the clue app I have been inputting info into for about 3-4 years now so think it is quite accurate. Will give it a few months before then investing in ovulation tests and doing temps etc ...
This time round TTC #2 I have promised myself NOT to test early and just wait for AF as hard as it is and feels like the longest two weeks ever. But, those BFNs are awful to see and the chaotic excitement of possible symptom spotting until AF arrives is actually easier for me to take.

Good luck and sending lots of baby dust to everyone xx

Hi ladies, me and my partner lost our baby at 8 weeks due to a SCH at the beginning of October (I fell pregnant the first month trying and weirdly it felt too good to be true). We have decided to start trying again, af arrived yesterday so next af due 22nd...here's hoping that we get a Christmas BFP 🤞🏼

@Sb86 sorry to hear about your recent loss 😩 I had a chemical this month but based on the NHS website, would have been around 3 weeks.
Hoping that after bad news, we have another try for a Dec or January babba xx

Hi all, think I’m CD9 of cycle 12 ttc1. AF due on the 18th of December.

I started taking EPO last month but didn’t feel like it did much but this month feel like I’ve generally got more cm so fingers crossed that it has a positive impact. Have also been drinking grapefruit juice and taking vitamin C&D. Other than that just going to continue with OPKs. Really going to be a bit more relaxed about it this months as last month the fw was unite unenjoyable 😂

Sorry for your early loss @Laul89 that must have been tough. It's my birthday, my husbands, my best friends, my mums all in December so feel the alcohol pain 🤣. Due on the 8th December which is just before my work Xmas night outbso we shall see of I can drink away my sorrows or have a bfp!
