***December Testing thread - hoping for a Christmas Miracle***

I think I would freak out with twins! But also good to know that it’s not always twins.

I’m at a stage where I realize worrying can’t change a thing, take what comes and you’ll be able to handle it even as a single mom I believe you would be able to handle twins! Can’t wait to see your scan I’m going to follow your journal

You’re right what will be will be Feel free to come and stalk- right now it’s me moaning about sickness or panicking about cramps which are probably round ligament pain but hopefully as I get further along I’ll be less worried

@Reiko_ctu wondfo. Its what I used both times we were ttc so I just went with those again. I havent tried any other ic brands so not sure how they compare now, hoping theyre as good as they were before.

AF due tomorrow. Have cramps, feel knackered, a bit sickly. Out of HPTs except the very last one that's saved for tomorrow morning, but got an absolutely blazing positive on an OPK this morning - which is how I found out about my son, so I dunno... Keeping everything crossed.

 

[MadamRose]

@LoneWanderer good luck!!!! Post tomorrow and let us know!!!!

No period and very negative test so who knows what is going on. Congrats to lovely Christmas bfps and big hugs to those who’s af is here or near.
We have just finished our gingerbreads for Santa, we’re close now for kids to go sleep... fingers crossed quickly

Can I ask a question for all the newly pregnant ladies please. Just wondered if you had any symptoms or anything stood out to you as different before you got your BFP?
I do love to symptom spot!!

Honestly, I was terrible for symptom spotting for my about six years of TTC - but then the cycle we actually conceived, I had no clue at all, no sign other than perhaps the odd twinge that had me thinking AF was coming. And I didn't get any pregnancy symptoms at all til maybe... eight, nine weeks, around then? In fact at eight weeks I took myself off to the early pregnancy unit and demanded a scan because I felt so un-pregnant that I was convinced I wasn't.

But I was!

Hey @Deethehippy I am not newly pregnant anymore but what stood out the most for me was being super weepy/emotional the days leading up to my BFP (at 10 or 11 dpo). I got very suspicious the day before I tested when I got very hungry but nothing sounded good. That is a telltale sign for me. FX honey!

 

[Reiko_ctu]

If I’m pregnant, I get super restless and can’t get comfy in bed or even on a long car ride it’s awful... and my mood is absolutely terrible. Like PMS on steroids! Also, I start having sex dreams lol, which I never have (literally never had one when I wasn’t pregnant) flipping hormones!!

I kept a log on here 10dpo and 7/8dpo which might help?
metallic taste at 10dpo and the constant sore boobs was probably my changing ones

@MadamRose my twins didn’t double in hcg, I didn’t have a strong test at all, my line was barely there at 14dpo but I knew it was twins. They’ve turned 7 today

 

[Deethehippy]

Thanks everyone..seems like symptoms can vary a bit from person to person....but all things I can hopefully look out for!
With my chemical In May the thought of preparing the raw chicken for dinner at 9DPO made me feel yuk and my boobs were more sore than normal. Also felt hot and a bit emotional on 8DPO but not much else before the positive...I can't remember my past pregnancies though..too long ago!

 

[Rach87]

For the ltttc ladies...thought a little humor might relieve some stress...

 

[MadamRose]

@ciz hope it’s good news for you soon!!!

@Deethehippy my tiredness and sickness started around 6DPO along with sore boobs. I’m 99% sure it’s why I gave in and tested so early. All of those symptoms have got worse. My sense of smell is now crazy and I have to get up in the night to pee, I never have to get up in the night to pee!!!

@Hevalouaddict thats reassuring thank you
