December 2017 Testers: Hopeful for Christmas and Year-end BFPs

[Alligator]

Kay my CM after O was creamy, sticky, lotiony depending on the day and I think how hydrated I was! Mine always turns creamy after O, and white (not clear). You’re still in it!

Goodness I took my bra off at the end of the day and the girls hurt so bad. Kind of hoping it's a sign lol

So I'm fairly certain that AF is here, had some brown spotting yesterday so did a PG test today, just in case anything managed to happen from the one time we DTD unprotected like 5 days before I thought I O'd (I had brown implantation spotting with both my previous pregnancies). Definitely nothing on the FRER test, so I am going to go with my new cycle starting tomorrow. Seeing we we weren't actually trying this cycle, I'm not too disappointed, maybe just a little, but that wasn't the plan in any case.

Please put me down for testing on Christmas Day! What a lovely present that'll be! I probably won't hold out that long before I test but that's when AF should be due next. I don't expect that we will be lucky to conceive next cycle as we're planning to DTD about 4 days out from O to assist with the sway attempt, but fingers crossed none the less.

Sending all the dust to everyone who is still in the TWW this cycle.

I don't know what my cm was like in bfp cycles but I can share some TMI with you anyway . Whenever we DTD just before AF was due and I was (unknowingly) pregnant, my OH would say that I tasted very good after going down on me. There are more telltales for not being pregnant but you really are not out before AF shows.

10dpo today and no idea what the outcome will be. AF is due tomorrow (11 dpo) but I have had a 13 day LP on clomid before. In any case, I'll know soon.

FX AF stays away Katy...

Poppie - done.

AFM - I think I'm 1dpo today.. 2 more temps and if I really o'ed yesterday then FF was right again with it's estimate making this the latest O. I have 12-13 LP on average so 11/12 more days.

Thank you for the advice ladies! Just went into a panic I think. Didn't want to be out already! Going to start testing around the 4th so will see what happens! Good luck to all of you and loads of baby dust sent your way xx

In my bfp cycles ive always had either sticky or creamy cm during lp. In my bfn cycles i normally have creamy cm turning into ewcm around 9dpo.

So, i think that cm during the tww is not a reliable indicator of pregnancy at all - mine is completely opposite to what it 'should' be...

 

[tbfromlv]

Temp went up today, don’t know if this counts but my cervix got higher too. I tested in FRER because I couldn’t resist lol I can see a vvvvvvfl so hopefully I see something clear in a few days and I’m not crazy!

 

[thencomesbebe]

@tb how exciting! Im tempted to test at 9dpo (tomorrow for me) but really gonna try and hold out til 10dpo!

Looks promising! Fingers crossed

I'm so sorry, I've missed out on the last week or so of posts!!! Have I missed anything exciting?

 

[mel28nicole]

I’m tempted to test tomorrow.. as with my daughter I got a very faint positive a week before my missed AF. But I know it’s still too early, I don’t want to waste a test lol. My cycles weren’t as short with her as they are now. I have a lot of 88 cent tests, I can always get more lol

 

[Starlight32]

7dpo and no symptoms. Feeling out. I had a lot of pulling pains with my daughter.

 

[mdscpa]

TB - chart is looking great. FX it stays elevated until your

Mel - Really hard when you start hearing those tests call your name.

Starlight - Every pregnancy is different. You may not have pulling pains now and still be pregnant. Hang in there, girl.

 

[mel28nicole]

Looking at my symptoms from when I was pregnant with my daughter, complete opposite. It was mostly heartburn and sleepyness. My daughter has woken up in the middle of the night and I reallyyyy have to pee so I guess may take a test, more than likely it'll be negative tho lol

 

[mdscpa]

Goodluck Mel. FX you catch a VVVVVFL....

 

[happycupcake]

I think looking at my fertile signs, the ovulation pains I had yesterday and my temp today I may have ovulated yesterday at CD9, which is rather early. I know my temps could go down tomorrow but I haven't had a positive OPK, ovulation pains, HSO cervix, ewcm and a temp increase as steep as this all together this early or without ovulating that day or the day after. Is this too early? As in, no point in holding out any hope for this cycle, too early?

 

[mdscpa]

Happycupcake - it really does look like you oed yesterday. Looking at your charts it seems you O on the day of + opk or a day after. At least you got it covered last night. I'd BD ine more time just in case unless you're doing EOD this cycle. If you did O at least this means you get to test early as well.

 

[happycupcake]

If my husband's back is behaving then we plan to BD later too. I'm just concerned if it did happen yesterday that it's too early

If your hormones are good, you are able to ovulate early and produce a perfect egg. So you are 100% still in! Some people need a bit more time for the egg to mature, but it might be that you are just having a super fertile cycle.
