The Festive 2WW, anyone want to join me?

[VJayMerrilyOnHigh]

Hello, are any of you hopefully testing around Christmas?.... I know a few who are . Come and join me in the symptom spotting festive fun and if it doesn't work out this time, at least when can have all the festive food and drink we want...so it's not all bad xxxxx

hello please can I join - cycle still settling down after coming off pill but I think AF due christmas eve !! been ttc no1 for just a couple of months, so don't think i'm going to get the christmas pressie I've been hoping for but who knows (pleeeese santa !)....

dilemma is do I try and test over christmas, ... or wait until after so I don't spend christmas feeling a bit disappointed? what are other people expecting AF around the same time doing?

oooh and just read the rest of the thread - a big hello from me to all the Durham/ ex-Durham peeps , was at uni there and such a lovely city (uni seems a long time ago now though!)

Hi ISpy - when were you there?
Not sure about the testing, I am so tempted to test now although it's way to early. Will probably plan to test after Christmas but then give in and test on Christmas Eve
Good luck!

I think if you are due AF over Xmas no matter what you tell yourself I bet we all test, its the thought of having the extra special pressie that will spur us on to test early when we know we shouldn't & should wait for AF. If you are late over Xmas then you won't be able to help yourself & if AF arrives you will be disappointed away so I say test away

Ok, please don't all shout at me, but I tested this morning. BFN obviously, and I know it was too early but I couldn't help it. Christmas party tonight and feeling generaly PMT'ish made me want to know one way or the other, but I know I shouldn't have [slap wrist emoticon]

Hello Ispy well, as you can see I am not the best person to go by, but I am now going to try to wait until xmas eve...

you are so right, I can pretend all I like that I will wait till after christmas day, but first I will decide to buy a test 'in case I can't get to a shop' and then, at some point my resolve will weaken in the hope I get good news !!

stealth - about 8yrs ago now, only been back once or twice, but it is such a beautiful place, (well, with the odd blot on the landscape like the student union...), not sure I miss the nightlife though!

Hello ISpy, love your Christmas name . I'm going to test tomorrow, but won't be able to let any of you know until Monday as I'm going away tomorrow for the weekend. Good luck to the rest of you testing over the weekend. Can't wait to log back in on monday and see all your wonderful BFP's.

hi everyone
I spy - I left oin 2000, so our paths may have crossed!
Very tempted to test now...

So nice to know you care! Well, woke up feeling dizzy and sick, bleeding has stopped. Tested again just now and still bfp. Dont know what to think really. Regardless of the outcome I hope you lot come and join me on the bfp list soon!

2many it could be implantation bleeding then, I hope so xxx

Glad bleeding has stopped - still got fingers crossed!

I DID IT!!
i've just got a BFP

Welcome Ispy - great name!

2many - fingers crossed.

Some of us on another thread (grapefruit drinkers) are planning on testing Xmas Eve, anyone fancy joining us .

My symptoms have all disappeated today - all in the mind ?

CONGRATULATIONS olivo! That's fantastic!
Now I really want to test

not convinced I can wait until 24th
And if it's -ve I'd like a bit of time before Christmas to get used to that
hmm

off you go, stealth.....you know you want to

evening,

(congrats again olivo - have also posted on other thread)
i'll join the testing on the 24th gang!! - that will be cd24 or 25 but i'll be amazed if af stays away that long as i've been averaging 23 days. aiming for the 24th might stopping me wasting tests (who am i kidding!!!

I'd probably be better off at this stage dragging DH off to bed - don't have a clue when I ovulate but period was 30th November

olivo wonderful news! congratulations.

thanks everyone.
2many, sounds more positive for you.

roll on the 24th for the rest of you!

Olivo fantastic news an early Christmas pressie for you, 2many great news that the bleeding has stopped & you still have your BFP

I'm planning on testing Xmas morning but I might end up joining you Xmas eve as I probably wont be able to wait, I'll be skiing but back on 26th in the eve so will be checking in as soon as I can log on the computer to find all the new bfp's, hopfully mine being one of them, although not holding my breath this month as don't feel at all pg

whooohoo olivio that gives me hope too...
2many I have everything crossed for you, really hjope it works out
stealth have you tested?
