*~*The Official December Testing Thread*~* 52 BFP's and counting!

[Guppy051708]

I had spotting that one night and then the next morning i woke up and tested and i got a BFP- it was super light in fact i told everyone on BnB not to make it official as it wasn't a respectable line. So you never know sweets! And it could be old blood. Like maybe you implanted a couple of days ago and its just residual? I think i may have implanted at 8 DPOs (cuz thats when i got a temp dip) but i didn't get blood until 11 DPOs.

also im_mi, even if you implanted a while ago, i had bad bleeding with my daughter whn i was 6 weeks along, just relax, lay down, whatever it takes to calm you down!

Im_mi, I wish you all the Best! BIG !!!!!!!!

Im_mi: I'm sure its fine. My SIL bled quite a bit with my niece in the first and sec tri's.

Blessed: I have never been pregnant before. So I'm not sure what I'm supposed to feel... I don't feel much at all. No AF, going on three days late.

 

[blessedbylife]

same here, going on three days late! yay us! Well, the reason i kinda 'know' is because i've been pregnant before. lol But, if you have the same symptoms as me, then i KNOW you're pregnant too!

 

[Starry Night]

well girls.... i got a super faint line on a FRER this morning. me and DH both saw it clear as day but as the test dried its almost completely gone!! got really sore boobies and craploads of CM so its looking good... going to re test tomorrow morning, not marking myself down for a BFP until i get a respectable line! keep your fingers crossed for me girls

Wow!! Congrats!!! So how many days late were you before you got your BFP? I'm now 8 days late and STILL no sign of AF but I absolutely REFUSE to test again until New Years Eve. I'm a praying girl and I'm going hard core on my hands and knees that my AF will start before then if I'm absolutely not pregnant. I don't think I can handle another BFN this cycle. Next cycle maybe.... But I'm wondering if I'm actually have a very late ovulation. This evening I started getting loads of EWCM. During my mid-cycle spotting I had some but it seemed scant compared to what I read I was supposed to get. Seeing as tomorrow is my 1st year wedding anniversary I am sure to cover my bases just in case it is late ovulation.

Edited to Add: I hope something happens SOON. I know coming off the pill can give you strange symptoms but I'm sick of the cramps, gas, heartburn, the extreme fatigue and especially the morning sickness! If I'm not pregnant they can just go!

 

[StonesWife]

Starry: I too just came off the pill too (October 21st), have had normal 31 day cycles since. Got a pos OPK 15th (cd22) and now I'm 3 days late (tomorrow the 28th)

Blessed:I've just started getting this heartburn feeling. Not real heartburn just a mild sensation in the top of my stomach. This has been three or four days now. Really erect nipples too... creamy white cm (VERY light) in panties and when checking cp. cp seems to be high, soft, and closed. Slightly irritable lately... When you say loads of cm do you me LOADS? I'm not getting loads just light but its pretty wet down there which I'm usually dry... UGH I wish I knew like you...

 

[blessedbylife]

well, i'm no pregnant lady whisperer or anything. lol... but we're SO CLOSE now, just enjoy the wonder! It's not constant loads of cm... it's like a flood every so often, it feels a bit like a HEAVY AF flow, so iget scared and check, and it's just cm. Doesn't happen with everyone, but it could be my body trying to quickly build a mucus plug because of my history of loosing babies? who knows.... but, we're ONE DAY CLOSER!!!

 

[StonesWife]

Yes one day closer is right, Just checked my cp and there's no sign of blood so

I've been off the pill off the beginning of September and have had loads of ill effects outside of menstrual symptoms--ie. shortness of breath, stomach pains and the like that have been lessening with each new cycle (looked up online and saw I'm not alone). I thought I was on track to having a normal 31 day cycle but I'm late. My first cycle was 31 days then I had 45 and I was pretty sure I ovulated around CD15 but now I'm not so sure....lol

The only AF sensations I've been getting are those I get when she's normally a few days off yet...but I've been feeling that way for over a week now. grrrr....my body likes to play mind games with me.

 

[StonesWife]

Awww sweets stay positive. It's hard I know but give it time to normalize. September wasn't that long ago... I don't remember but did you say you tested?

 

[blessedbylife]

yeah, just stay positive, and even if you do EVERYTHING right, everyone still has only a 30% chance of getting pregnant. So it takes time, and you need to stay positive!

Stoneswife- my nipples hurt so fricken bad! I went from a D to a DD in a week! AHH!!! TMI but it hurts ALOT when my nipple gets brushed by my shirt if i'm not wearing the sports bra i bought! I know this because i washed it and i layed it out to dry, and it's still wet... it's WAY too cold here to put it on wet! THREE MORE DAYS FOR US!

 

[StonesWife]

I don't want to say this cause I'm afraid its just in my head but something feel different in my uterus. Not cramping or anything just "different". I don't know how to explain it... maybe I'm crazy... well I am but that a whole other story

 

[Starry Night]

I have tested four times and all were BFNs. Christmas Eve morning I was feeling discouraged but I had an epiphany of sorts and now I feel really calm and peaceful about the whole thing. I'm not even letting myself worry about possibly having endo or PCOS (tested as a teen and was cleared on both counts at the time). This is a big deal to a hypochondriac like myself. I'm testing again on the 31st. Not really building hope but I know I should do it and I will be OK with a BFN because I'll have to be OK with it. I don't know. I just feel good about the whole process.

I just get tired of the cramps and naseau and such but no AF. As I mentioned earlier, I think I might actually be getting fertile now. I had mid-cycle spotting bang on time but it's possible I actually didn't ovulate at the time. I wasn't charting or using OPKs--I was merely going off following cervix mucus, cp and my mittelschmerz--so I can't confirm 100% that ovulation happened.

 

[blessedbylife]

omg ur funny. but aside from your crazyness... intuition is usually a pregnancy symptom as well!

 

[blessedbylife]

i didn't think i OV'ed either, but now i'm getting ready to take a pregnancy test, so you never know!

 

[StonesWife]

Blessed: Its like a deep inside feeling. And yes I am crazy!! lol

Starry: Just keep up that PMA! Until you really get into TTC you don't realise how hard it is! It's stressful but you've got an awesome outlook. There are plenty of ladies going through similar things love, you're not alone.

 

[blessedbylife]

prbably a deep inside feeling because there's a BABY DEEP INSIDE YOU! bahahahaha!

 

[Starry Night]

i didn't think i OV'ed either, but now i'm getting ready to take a pregnancy test, so you never know!

I know, it's kind of crazy. I have no idea what to expect come the 31st. I'm searching my gut for any sort of insight but my intuition is just as clueless as I am! One moment I "know" I'll finally get my BFP, another moment I "know" I'll actually be conceiving this week (TMI?) and yet another moment I "know" it will be a few months yet but that's OK.

The TTC journey is certainly teaching me alot about myself. LOL
