***January Testers Closed Out at 118 testers, 22BFPs, 68 BFNs, and 28 Unknowns***

[OperationBbyO]

So I can't count. I should be on the 8th instead of the 12th.

I finally broke down today and went out and got some pg tests. I have a First Response Early Result and was contemplating using it in the morning. Is this a good idea or should I wait until Tuesday? Or does it not matter either way?

Edit: I'm a testing noob! I've never done it before.

I see a couple of you have mentioned AF-like cramps from shortly after O until you got your BFP -- not sure whether I should be cautiously optimistic (I've been having mild to sharp cramps off and on but several times a day and at night since 4dpo) or if I should let this info go in one ear (eye?) and out the other so I don't get my hopes up... I'm 8dpo today and the test came back negative (duh, but I had to do it since it was January 1 lol), so I'm going to be going crazy until my official test date this weekend...

Congrats to all the ladies with New Year BFPs! Very exciting!

You should wait. However, I am impatient, and know that I wouldnt be able to do this. Lastly, I have changed your dates.

I am having right-sided cramps and mild nausea. AF due on the 9th. I am trying my best to ignore these symptoms, since last month I had similar symptoms and no BFP.

For whatever reason I have been blessed with the gift of patience. I can wait forever on anything!

It came with one free test, so maybe I'll use that one and then just pack the rest far, far away...underneath a pile of towels...in the darkest corner of the linen closet...locked in a reinforced steel cage...guarded by some really ferocious looking dog....

Ah! I want a

BFN :'( Next expected O 1/11-1/16

Congrats to everyone who has gotten a BFP so far and baby bust to all who are testing this month!!!

 

[UenvyMEsha]

JDB when will you be testing again? Will it be in January? There are a few people that have short enough periods to test again in Jan. Instead of bewitching them, I added them to their next scheduled Jan testing date. Dont give up yet. January may still be your month.

Grats to those who got BFP!!!

 

[growingbean]

I tested today and I got a !!!

Good luck to those still trying, and congrats to those who go their

My symptoms were like normal period symptoms. What was different this month than any other, I did not stress or even look into symptoms, I just tried to ignore everything, I also did yoga! Then there it was a positive sign. Girls please do not stress, I think stress might make it hard for the egg to attach and stay there, try some yoga, drink some herbal teas and eat healthy. The more you make a happy body, the more an egg will want to attach!

Good luck and I hope my advice helps someone

Mine should be the 13th, but no promises as this is my first period without Cerazette. I always hade regular monthly periods with Cerazette though! I also felt Ovulation cramp many times...I think my body was willing me to stop taking it!

Grats growingbean!
