~*~ Hoping for Our Special Stocking Stuffers! ~*~ December Testing: 7 BFP's, 1 angel

[AshNAmber]

Thanks Terri

Sounds like your having a blast!!

 

[AshNAmber]

Sweet (SPP) me and you will be testing looks like about the same time

 

[SweetPotatoPi]

Sis-Sorry AF got you. She does have the worst timing!!

Lenka-I'm still eager for you to test before your big trip. I hope it's a :BFP:!!

SPP-Good call on waiting to test until New Years as well. How exciting!

AFM-I made sweet potato pie, fresh cranberry sauce, and all I have left is macaroni and cheese! My favorite! Everyone is happy with their presents and Santa was good to me!

ERose-I feel like the worst friend ever for not seeing that line, but I'm sure I'll see the next one you post.

I've been wanting sweet potato pie so bad but I don't feel like making it . I want some mac n cheese and cranberry sauce now too . Glad Santa was so good to you!

SPP, I hope you get a nice New Years surprise. Btw, I didn't realize they hacked up the Harry Potter books for the US! Yikes! I guess that never occurred to me. Out of curiosity, did they do that with the Bridget Jones books too?

Never occurred to me either ERose! I mean, good grief . I don't know if they did it to Bridget Jones as well (another on my long list of reads to get to ) but I wouldn't doubt it .

I tried to order one of the books from Amazon when it first came out, but because they had come out in the UK first, they said they couldn't sell it to me in the US. I did some digging and found out that the language and slang terms were all different in the two 'sets' of books. It was quite a surprise!

Stupidly annoying isn't it!

AFM kinda confused.. I'm 10 DPO and having none of my normal PMS symptoms, No sore BBs, No cramps So really have No clue The only thing I'v had so far was a sharp pain in by my left ovary early yesterday morning that lasted all day i felt it the worst when I walked.. It was bad enough that my family noticed the way I was walking and started to worry.. Told them if it lasted more then a few days I'll get it checked out.. Today it feels achy but doesn't hurt as bad as yesterday.. Temp jumped today and I' catching a cold blah... So just waiting and see what goes on the rest of this week.. I really want to test but of course to scared i'm going to see a BFN..

I found out that my boss has extended my early shift for the first few days of next week also.. So now i'm wondering should I continue to wake up early this weekend to temp or wake up at my "regular" time?

Yeah, BFN's are the worst . Totally understanding wanting to hold out for a bit. I hope your cramping is getting better as the day rolls on! To keep some kind of consistency with things getting funked out by work maybe just temp at the earlier time and go back to sleep? Your therm has a memory feature yes? Or is that too annoying? You could temp at your regular time and just go with it though.

Thanks ladies for all your support.

I tested this morning with cb digi and it said 3+ so that's good, my levels have progressed. Still bleeding. Will call EPU in morning and ask for scan to have it checked out.

Have a great Boxing Day....

Yay for a 3+! Looking at Blueshoney's stories, maybe it certainly can be a genetic thing with the bleeding fandabby? Either way, I'm glad you've got a boost from the 3+ and we're all hoping for the best Friday!

Fandabby, good to hear CB said 3+, hope you get some further tests at EPU ASAP.

ERose, yey for what looks like a BFP!! Very happy Christmas

I got AF this morning, which was expected I knew I wasn't preggers, we really didn't go for it last month with only 1 BD! Mainly as I totally lost my mojo with my 8 day LP last month.....so this month I have an 11 or 12 day LP and after 6 months of a crap LP I am

Next cycle some seriously fun BDing will happen

Hope you all had a lovely Christmas

So sorry she got you charlie . Sounds like it's seriously on next cycle . Yay for a longer LP though!

Well, the $20 worth of tests and the odd conversation with the cashier who just couldn't get his foot out of his mouth was worth it....
2 tests showed a very faint line and the CB digital said "Pregnant"!
Is there anything I should do now besides celebrate and call my doctor?!?!

Woohoo!!! Congratulations Teva! Yep, that's pretty much all you do now . You've been through all this waiting to jump right into a fresh batch of more waiting lol.

Well, all the symptoms were there. THen a BFN followed closely by AF. So I'm out.

Baby dust to those that haven't tested yet and Congrats to those that got their BFP!

So sorry AF got you jadoechols.

 

[SweetPotatoPi]

Sweet (SPP) me and you will be testing looks like about the same time

Yay! I'm definitely down for having a testing buddy . It's scary testing alone!

 

[SweetPotatoPi]

terri: I just looked up the Sandia Mountains and definitely hope you get to ride the tram! You guys are going to have so much fun!

 

[AshNAmber]

*grabs Sweets hand* We got this

Yea it does.. So I'll just test early now seeing how it really makes no since to go back and forth.. I'll go back to testing at 4 am when my boss decides to put me back on my normal shift (I hope is soooon)

 

[ERosePW]

So, today is the first day I feel comfortable saying I got a BFP. Since my line was darker this morning, I decided to try the digital about a half hour ago, and it was positive (which surprised me since I didnt use FMU, I just held my pee for four hours!). I can hardly believe I'm typing this. Almost exactly a year to the day!

EDIT:
Actually, correction, its been over a year... I started trying in early Dec of last year though, so it feels like it's been exactly a year.

 

[ttcinseattle]

Congrats ERose! This BFP is a true stocking stuffer! Can't think of anything better So happy for your husband and you. Wishing you a healthy and happy 9 months!!

 

[Sis4Us]

Congrats Erose!!!

 

[AshNAmber]

Congrats ERose!! So excited for you.. here's to a H&H 9 Months!!

 

[SweetPotatoPi]

More congrats ERose!! How exciting! Best present ever . Enjoy every second! Even the crappy ones .

 

[pearlsandbows]

Think I posted on the old thread to be added onto Dec testers for 25th ! Sorry! But I got my BFP ! SO HAPPY !
xo.

 

[Lenka78]

Wowowow so many BFPs!!!!

Erose, Teva, congrats to you, ladies !!! H&H 9 months to you!!!

fandabby, I hope everything is fine with your bean and it's just an occasional bleeding, which is quite common in the early pregnancy. FX for you!!!

SweetPotato, I feel that you are next to share good news with us. Your chart looks very promising. Ash, so does yours.

Sorry for ladies who got AF. Such a bummer. 2014 is your year then!!!

AFM, 8dpo here. To me, this is the most relaxing time of the cycle. BD is done, do not have to worry about spotting or AF just yet... I am not sure when I am going to test. AF is due on the New Year eve and I usually start spotting a day before.

Have a wonderful day ladies.

 

[terripeachy]

Well, MIL was too nervous to go on the tram, so we just did a little shopping instead.

Erose-I'm SO excited you finally put that green positive on FF. I was waiting for that. I am so excited that you're pregnant. Like SO excited. hee hee. Those tubes are open! hee hee.

Congrats also pearlsandbows!! H&H 9 months to you.

SPP-Sweet potato pie was really easy. It was my first year making it, but I had a good recipe. I might eat a piece now just to make you jealous. My sisters and I split cooking dinner now that my mom is no longer here, so we're all new at cooking all this food and trying to get it on the table on time.

Does anyone want to start the January thread? It's a little early but everyone can think about it. Obviously, ttcinseattle, fandabby, ERose, Teva, pearlsandbows are not in the running. hee hee. Yay!!

Yay Teva!!!!

 

[ERosePW]

Congrats to Teva and pearlsandbows!!

Yes, there do seem to be a lot of BFPs coming from this thread right now.

terri, you're too sweet, thanks for such enthusiasm! It was weird to put that green positive up there. I think I'm still in disbelief! I'm gonna have to check in with all you ladies for sure, until I see you jump over to the pregnancy forums. I'm sure I'll be seeing you all over there very soon.

 

[oldermom1975]

Yay ERose!!!!
Congrats to you too, pearls, sorry we didn't see you on the other thread!


Sorry Charlie and jado about the dreaded witch.
I agree with Terri, next month is our month!!!

Sorry for me being MIA- I am hosting the inlaws for the next two weeks, so I will be on and off at even odder hours. For that reason, I should probably wait until at least Feb to host a thread (hopefully I won't need to... ).

Glad you are having fun, Terri!
SPP, Ash, hope you ladies are living it up!
Everyone else: :wave:
Me, I am off to bed!!

 

[MissStacy]

Congrats to all the BFPs! So excited for everyone

This morning I woke up pretty bummed out. My temp went down a bit, I was hoping it would stay up. Woke up with my normal Pre AF symptoms, tummy troubles, emotional, etc. I cried the entire morning for no real reason at all, like literally cried into my bowl of cereal as I was eating it. Cried on my drive to work. Ugh. AF is due on Saturday

 

[L.Ann.V]

I've had 28, 27, & 25 day cycles since I started tracking on FF. I'm on CD 20. New Years Eve is CD 25, and I'm hoping to test if no signs of AF at that point. Best wishes to everyone!
