    Anyone planning on testing around New years or new years eve? I'm on my second cycle and currently on CD2.

    Anyone with me?

    Today is CD1 for me and I tend to O a little late so I actually think testing around New Years will be about right this cycle! I'm in :)

    @Running Elley: How long are your cycles?  My cycles are about 33-34 days long.  I decided to get OPK this time around to be sure I know when I ovulate.

    Well it's hard to say. Before my first MC they were consistently 31-35 days but then the first cycle after was 50 something days, the cycle after that I got another BFP but if I hadn't that cycle was shaping up to be about 33 days with O on CD22. This past cycle was the one immediately following that second MC and it was 41 days. I'm pretty sure that this cycle will be normal, it has no reason not to be! I'm anticipating O between CD20 and 23…so December 17th and 20th. My luteal phase this month was 12 days so that puts us at around New Year!

    I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow to figure out our med plan for this try. She may have me test on 12DPO no matter what just so I can get bloodtested as early as possible to see if we need to adjust any medications. But it'll still be around new year no matter what.

    OPKs really help me. I also temp and I like having that confirmation that O actually did happen.

    hi all*

    i'm in. my temp dropped this morning to CL and i'm expecting AF to show up today or tomorrow. my cycles have been pretty regular so I think it is safe to say that i'll be testing on or just before New Years Eve.

    baby dust to all of you!

    Well last month was our first cycle of NTNT, and this month will be our first month of actual TTC (and will probaby work out better anyway where we actually get married this month!). I'm currently on CD4, and should be testing by the 31st.

    Hopefully we'll all get an awesome New Year's surprise!

    Count me in too. I've had two long cycles since going off BC. Justused my first OPK and the online calendar says I'llprobably O around 20th - 23rd. I hope I can use the OPK's at work.  That puts me at testing right around New Years day. I'm trying to be as chill about this as possible, but I doubt that will last long. I hope you all post and keep us updated!

    For those of you new to TTC, how are you going about trying to get your BFP? Dh and I are thinking the "every day around O" route is what we'll try first since I'm not 100% sure when my O date is.

    What about you guys?

    @drakela2:

    Our game plan this cycle (Cycle 2) is to BD every other day as soon as AF is over which just happens to be today! I timed it so that we would (hypothetically) BD two days before and the day of ovulation so that we have the best shot.

    This is also my first month charting, so I'm hoping I'll be able to figure that out enough for it to do it's part!

    Agreed, I haven't O'ed yet as far as I can tell from charting and OPK's so I might be testing into the New Year this cycle :(

    Ughhh I'm out already! My period is acting all wonky (just went off the pill Nov1) and I am lucky enough to spend 2 weeks out of the last 4 with AF:)

    At least my TWW flew by (since it was only 4 days) :)

    Hoping for lots of BFP's for everyone else!

    @PennyLainne:

    Yay for O'ing! I was pretty worried we'd miss our window this time around so we BDed from CD8 until yesterday CD18. DH is now very exhausted and happy I finally got a positive OPK.

    The only thing that annoys me this cycle is that after Oing my CM doesn't dry up like it's "supposed to" so FF won't stop telling me I'm still fertile :(

    Can I ask a silly question? I should get my period around the 1st, so I could test New Year's Eve, but we are hosting a party..... My primary concern is if I tested on New Year's Eve than I could tell my Husband without him getting drunk and telling everyone there (we want to wait to tell everyone till after the first trimester). So I keep going back and forth, and i hear the saying drink till its pink, but I'm wondering if two drinks would be okay? I would like to try and keep up appearances, till the holidays are over and I can hide for three months!! lol!! 

    Sorry if thats a lot.... all I could think of lately!! Good luck to everyone!!

    @carriejuly: Two drinks would be fine as long as you arn't drinking out of the bottle! lol! I got sick of giving up everything every two week wait, I am fine with having a glass of wine or cooler here or there. I don't make a habit of every day or drink more than two. Doing that helps me chill out a not over analyze everything!

    @quiche: GOOD LUCK!!

    @carriejuly: my doctor told me that 1 to 2 glasses of wine is fine.... UNLESS that would get you tipsy.  She said that you shouldn't drink to the point of being tipsy/drunk if you're trying to do things "by the book".  I wouldn't worry about it and enjoy ringing in the New Year:)

    @PennyLainne: Thanks!! I know if I didn't have anything everyone would be asking questions, and we just want to avoid the pressure of having everyone know. I'm really fearful of a miscarriage.

    @drakela2: I am definitely glad that I have increased my tolerance through the years! There was a point were two drinks did a number on me!! Thanks for the information!!

    @carriejuly: LOL! I'm just the opposite! I used to be able to drink MUCH more than I can now.  The reason this came up with my doctor is he told me that 2 or 3 drinks is ok during hte TWW and I told him if I had 3 glasses of wine I'd be hammered! Ooooh the good ole' days of being able to drink more-at least it's cheaper now!:)

    Ugh 3DPO and had the weirdest uterine spasms for about two minutes tonight. Has anyone else more experienced in the ways of TTC experienced/heard of this? It's not cramping, just spasms...kind of like twitching...?

    How're all you other New Year POAS Bees doing now that we're  now down to a  one week wait? Are the holidays keeping your mind off of it?

    I'm at 6DPO and honestly am not feeling very preggo, so I've resigned myself to the idea that I will most likely  get a BFN this cycle. It also doesn't help that DH/SIL have informed me that all they want for Christmas from me is a BFP...Bah!

    Happy Christmas POAS Bees!

    @FutureJessicaMcB:  YAY one more week!!! Cannot wait! I am not feeling super positive about getting a bfp but I am just excited for the new year in general. I have a bunch of good things happening and plans are going to be moving forward and I am determoned to try and make a baby! Whoo Hoo!!! LOL

    Of course!

    Well 8DPO and  I'm feeling alright. However while we were at my in-laws yesterday I got pretty sick and DH was all over telling everyone he  thinks its morning sickness (at 7DPO?! Who is he kidding?). Soooo 7DPO was an awkward day full of people commenting on us having been married a week.

    I hope I get a BFP this time. I have to admit I broke down this morning and  POAS with a  FRER and got a BFN. I knew better than to do it,  but yesterday got me too hopeful. *sigh*

    How're you ladies doing?
