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

[LuLu_TTC]

Hey everyone! I was finishing up in the November thread, but at 13dpo today, I convinced myself to wait until 14 to retest (December 1st - can you add me to the test list?). I tested the first and only time this month yesterday at 12dpo with FMU on a Wondfo strip. BFN.

BUT, as of today I am officially a day late (which hasn't happened in 6+ months) and I have zero PMS/AF symptoms, which never happens. I also almost always spot a day before AF comes in full force and nada. Every other month with a million "signs" that made me think I was pregnant did not work. So I am hoping that little to no signs this month will finally be it! FX

That’s how it worked for me.. 7dpo dip first BFP on 10dpo

Lulu- FXd! Wondfos showed nothing the first two days of my BFP so you might try FRER Too!

TB how easy is it to see the line now (if you're still testing) and how many dpo?

I am so bad at seeing faint lines but really torn with wanting to test. But also a negative would gut me!!

Corgi - your chart is looking good. FX!

I'll be testing December 25th! Hoping for a Christmas gift!

Tankel - fX it's not just your line eye and its the start of your

TB - so glad to hear about your #s. That's a very very sticky bean.

Corgi - no doubt you have O'ed and FX it's ID. I agree witb TB about 2-3 days from suspected implantation for a to show. Will you be testing early or wait your test date?

Lulu and mrsharper - adding you in a bit. Lulu, FX the witch stays away and you get

Starlight it’s pretty clear today at 13dpo.

Hi ladies,

Just checking in. I was really stupid yesterday and broke my cardinal rule... I tested early. 10dpo, no less. I knew it was a terrible idea. I get very emotional and depressed as-is from 8dpo on, just from PMS but negative HPTs make it 100x worse.

So in addition to that (which I'm trying not to weight too heavily since it's early), I'm feeling defeated for this cycle because, as always happens, my breast tenderness has all but gone away. This happens 3-5 days before AF every month, so it's made me pretty pessimistic.

Tb I am loving those lines!!!

 

[tbfromlv]

Thanks! I can’t wait for you to test again!

Hi there - will be testing Dec 8

 

[LuLu_TTC]

TB congratulations!! Those lines are beautiful! I sure hope to be joining you soon

Thank you Mdscpa!

Smurphy, try to keep you head up and stay optimistic. I definitely know how hard it is, but I have figured out that stress really does play a factor (at least for me) and the less I think about it the more positive I feel. Easier said than done, but try to keep yourself busy with happy things/projects. It has helped me so much this month (regardless of whether I get a positive or not tomorrow).

hi all .. new to this Forum thing .. hoping to get some advice/comfort/support through this time! I'm 27 married over the summer 3 months TTC - had a chemical pregnancy in October, didnt actively try in November and now hoping for a BFP this month I think I am at about CD 21 (so in the TWW period i think) but my cycle isnt super consistent as it ranges from 28-35 days .... but I i had a positive OPK CD 14 and by following that DH and I BD -5, -3 & -1

anyone out there roughly around the same CD as me?

Congrats to the BFPs! They are some lovely lines!!

Sorry for AF Katy, I was really hoping that as I read through the pages to catch up I would see your BFP. FX for December for you!

Sorry about the results Blo, but sounds like there is still hope for correcting things based on reading the other replies. Love how knowledgeable and helpful all you ladies are on things!

AFM, took a break from posting and reading when AF came, am now CD 12, should ovulate late next week. I was wondering if I should skip this cycle but then my sister told me they want to try from this month and we would love to be pregnant together so I will give it a go. Trying to pull back from the edge of obsession is hard though!

Good luck to all this month, I love love love Christmas so I am hoping it brings us all the miracle we are after!

SO many exciting things in this thread!! Feeling good about all the upcoming tests!

Blo-

Katy- I'm sorry AF came, fingers crossed for a Christmas/New Year's bfp for you x

Tb- I think I'm due around 9/10th August, I usually have 29/30 day cylces

Bebe- I see a line, can't wait to see tomorrow's test!

13dpo, I ordered some tests but they haven't arrived (booo) so I used an ovulation stick this morning as I'm a POAS addict

 

[mel28nicole]

Welcome Cdubs! Baby dust to you!

Stocked up on cheap tests but I’m forcing myself not to test til Sunday. Monday AF is due but that’s if my cycle is 25 days. We shall see I guess.

And if it does come then I’ll still be in this thread as I’d be due again December 29th

I used a calculator that gave me a due date based on ovulation date since I don’t ovulate CD14/15.. I didn’t ovulate until cd22, so I knew if I went off most calculators it would be based on LMP and be off. How fun that we are at the same due date!

Cdubs- welcome! Lots of women in the TWW right now or close to it! FXd!
