June Bus anyone?!

Writer, could you try temping? It would tell you if you ovulate or not..

A woman on the conception forum said it may be just that I did t actually ovulate last month despite the LH surge and positive OPKs. It may be that my body psyched itself up to ovulate but then actually didn't and as a result I wouldn't have a period.

I have heard of anolovutary cycles (or something spelt like that) but I don't really know much about them, just that ovulation doesn't occur. I think I will go and google it once I've learnt how to spell it properly

Hmm how confusing writer!

How frustrating writer! EWCM is a definite sign that you're in FW! Ovulating so late if AF is due would be strange and leave you with very short luteal phase ( I've been reading loads about this because I think mine is very short) Did you have a particularly stressful month? Stress can cause delay in ovulation maybe?
What kind of test did you use? If AF is only due today, I'd test again in a few days if AF still hasn't come.

Well all I had to go off in terms of ovulating in May was me using OPKs, I don't temp or anything.

I can't remember if I had any EWCM and if it did it certainly wasn't like what I have just had otherwise I would remember.

I have heard of women who have their LH surge but don't actually ovulate so maybe that's what happened last month but now I actually am ovulating?

But that doesn't understand why I'm showing signs of ovulation as opposed to having my period as I would still have my period even if I didn't ovulate last month.

I might put up a thread on the main forum and see if anyone has any bright ideas.....

That's so strange! How did you know you were ovulating before? Were you temping? Could it be possible that your body's ovulating really late and it's a long cycle? Or could the EWCM be a sign? I know you can get more mucus in pregnancy. I don't get the bfns because it does seem like the signs are there.

WTF is my body doing?!

Cycle day 31, possible implantation bleeding over the last week but BFN after BFN and now after a strong OPK this morning, I've just been for a wee and there is also loads of EWCM in my underwear and also over the tissue paper when I wiped.

I don't understand it???

Welcome newbies
Sorry about the bfns. I'm actually getting tempted to test as sore nipples and feeling a bit dizzy but only 8-10 days post ovulation and af not due until Thursday so it's probably too early. If I'm having symptoms then surely something would show up though? Unless of course I'm imagining them. That is very possible!

Can I please join the bus? :)
Age 29
Ttc #1
Cycle 1
We have been married for nearly a year but together for 12. We were going to wait until moving in to our new house (about July time) but thought we would be releaxed and see how it goes!! I am a bit of an obsessive-planner generally in life so of course I have just purchased basal thermometer, OPKs, pregnacare etc... so much for being relaxed!! xx

Period due today and still a definite BFN

I guess that's it then

Yeah I did test early but couldn't resist. Not due till Thursday. I will wait it out a bit longer :)

Good luck Writer,

Babydances when is your AF due? Perhaps you tested to early?

Good luck to everyone POAS today!!
I'm continuing my daily POAS ( OPKs) I think I have an addiction!
My Amazon delivery of cheap HPTs also arrived today! Ovia is telling me ten days until I test but I haven't actually ovulated yet!

9dpo bfn

Tests are bought and I'm on my way home.....

Woah so many updates - good luck writer and babydances - I'll be honest there's no way I would have even held out this long!!
Hi foxglove we can be test buddy's! I'm 3dpo and bored of waiting already. Yeah we DTD 3 days of FW so I am praying for 2 lines this month. I had a big temp increase this morning, had been around 97 in FW and today up to 97.8. This happened last month and then started to dip before AF so just need it to stay up
Hi lizzy yeah when I got a bfn last month (cycle 1) I was like Its never going to happen!! (How impatient) We must persevere!

I did cycle 2 and 3 but last cycle I distanced myself a bit more so didn't actually cry.

Fx for writer and babydances!

I had a temp dip after yesterday's rise so now I'm not sure I o'd on Thursday. It's my own fault for forgetting to use an opk that day!

Two days ago not today's silly phone

Hi guys was wondering if I can join the bus! My DH and I started ttc#1 in May but my AF paid a visit today's ago, I had the implant removed in September and started getting regular cycles from November. I really though I was one of the lucky few that conceived first try as I was showing all the symptoms (pains in left side and sore boobs) but just like clockwork my AF paid a visit. I will be honest and admit I was totally guttered and felt so down hearted, my DH tried to cheer me up by saying at least we can have more fun ttc again this month! According to Ovia my fertile week begins on the 13th of this month.

Does anyone else shed a tear or two when AF rears her ugly head? Xx

Have u got your tests writer?

Just been for a wee and there was more orange/brown blood upon wiping

God I hope it's IB instead of my period on its way....

Good luck writer af due for me tomorrow and got the usual cramps and achy boobs so not filled with confidence, then it will be on to July. I did say though this would be the worst month to get pregnant due to all the Feb babies this year in my family. I know everyone's proud of their babies but every time I see my nieces I'm filled with jealousy! Especially as they all had girls and if I could pick next time I'd like a girl as have a ds already.

Also a friend of mine got accidentally pregnant when she's already got ds1 nearly 3 ds 2 nearly 1 then new baby due in December. Damn fertile people! I don't envy her having 3 under 3 though it will be exhausting.

Thanks babydance!

I've got my fingers crossed for you writer. Let us know!

Right, I'm off to Boots

I will aim to be back with an update at 11am

I'm a bit nervous though because if I get a BFN today then I know for definite I'm not pregnant

Hahaha nope!
