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

olivo, CONGRATULATIONS! That's fantastic, fantastic news! .....

.... and I'm joining you. 15DPO today and I've peed on that stick. BFP! My last pg ended in a mmc in September so this time I'm hoping and hoping and HOPING that this little bean will stick and grow and do everything that it should. Think I will go and book an early scan for 7 weeks. We're not telling anyone in RL yet!

congratulations Villagemum sending over sticky thoughts!

hurray VM, congratulations!! I'm so pleased for you. . sticky vibes being sent your way!

Thanks guys! olivo, if all goes well we'll be popping our sprogs at the same time!

Congratulations olivio and villagemum !

Oooh, Christmas beans already!

i know! my due date would be dd1s birthday - oops!

congratulations olivo and villagemum, and best wishes

all resolve not to test til after christmas is leaving me now, starting to symptom spot already... anyone know where I can order tests from on the internet? not got a car for the next few days...

olivo the first test you did that was bfn, was it an early one ie. first response type, tell you before you are late, and were you late? then the BFP you did today, two days later right, when you were due to test?

as I got a BFN yesterday I don't know wether to test tomorrow? my usual cylcle is 32, so was due yesterday, but they have been longer since the MC so not sure uf I am late or not yet!

Wishing sticky bean to villagemum great news. more dizzy spells for me,gonna test tomor a.m as I'm off to a wedding and want to watch the drink. Good luck anyone testing this weekend!

first bfn was first response ( wed a.m), also did clearblue normal ( thurs,early hours) which in hindsight, may have had a faint line, then i did boots digital (thurs p.m) which was bfp. then also did another clearblue which was also bfp. AF wasn't due till today/tomorrow. ( i sound really onssessive, don't I?! )
i'd go for digital anyday if possible - no screwing up your eyes for a possible line!
go on, girlwithacurl, test tomorrow!

Congratulations VM and Olivo - what amazing news!!

Am down to the 1ww and really struggling to resist the early testing. Symptom spotting much more this cycle too, have woken up the last few nights needing the loo. Fingers crossed that this thread's good luck spreads!

Baby dust to you all, xxx

Congrats to Olivo and Villagemum - wonderful Christmassy news! Just goes to show that a BFN can turn into a BFP eventually!

Not for me, sadly - AF came yesterday so bye-bye lovely Christmas ladies, it was a v friendly thread and I'm wishing you all lots of luck for more Christmas beanies. Will check in now and again to see how you are all doing xx

oh, sunny, sorry to hear this. i wish you lots of luck for the next time. take care.

Sunnydale so sorry this wasn't your month, don't get to down, enjoy Christmas & New Year

BFP for me --- I posted ages ago, but have been feeling shite after my IVF and had a mad dash to hospital with kidney stones...... I tested early on Weds. got a faint (very faint) line with a clear blue. Tested with a digital on Thurs afternoon, got a pregnant, did another one yesterday morning, got a pregnant and did another clearblue this am and got a stronger blue line. my OTD is tomorrow. so hoping and praying this little beanie (or beanies) stick around...... Best christmas present ever xxxxxxx

O yes, and I agree with Olivio - Digital is much, much better than trying to think if you are going mad searching for a sodding blue line

Flibberty well done you, fantastic news a lovely early Chrissie pressie

Great news Flibberty .

Sorry to hear that it's not your month Sunny .

I reckon that I'm also out this month, all symptoms have stopped and I don't feel preggers at all (been here enough times now to know what it feels like). Probably just fighting something off which was making me feel odd .

On the plus side, here's to a boozy Xmas !

Please can I join?

AF due on Boxing day. This is my first month of TTC DC2. DD is 16 months and was 2 years in the making (took us almost a year, then had a mc). Don't want to wait too long for DC2 in case it takes a while so thought we'd start trying now (even though the thought of a newborn and toddler is SCARY).

I haven't done any temping or peeing on sticks, thought we'd see how it goes for a few months before doing any of those things.

I get hideous PMS most months which feels exactly like pregnancy symptoms, so will try to avoid spending small fortune on pg tests every month.

well done flibberty
Hi naturelover
Well I still have about a month to go Why does my 2ww have to be more like a 4ww??

congratulations flibberty!
here's to a happy and healthy one.

Welcome Naturelover
Well I'm off to the ski slopes today so wont be able to check in till boxing day evening to see if there are any more bfp's & let you know how I got on this month
Merry Christmas everyone I hope you get everything you have wished for

Wonderful news flibberty!

Good luck smiley... and gilrwithacurl, 2manychips, thinking of you all - plus the ladies I haven't mentioned by name ((waves to everyone))

Welcome naturelover - if you can resist the lure of the early pg tests, then you're a better woman than I .

No AF today, so not a 28 day cycle (sure I'm not up the duff), how annoying. I just wanted it to arrive and be done with it!

Thanks for the welcome!

So I'm on day 22 - my cycle is usually 28 days - and I have a period-type cramp... what on earth is that all about?

I will do my best to resist testing too early all the same.

With PMS I usually get the mood swings a few days before the cramps.

hi guys, sunny sorry AF got you. Congrats flibberty, hello naturelover.

BFN yesterday, but still no AF, CD36... feel pmt'ish though so not hopefull...
