Hi all

I thought I'd start the June bus as I'm getting impatient!

I'm 31 (for a bit longer anyway), TTC#1. DH and I agreed to start TTC in May, but won't be ovulating till about the 24th. ETD 8th June! Feeling terrified and excited at the same time.

Join me if you will! Smile

babydances · 04/06/2016 08:04

writer I'm going to buy a FRER in boots later as its buy one get one free and I'll test tomorrow as its not the fmu . In?

Writerwannabe83 · 04/06/2016 07:59

According to Ovia I'm on my period today - that's news to me Grin

BertieBotts · 04/06/2016 07:58

Also, looking at my chart we dtd every other day in the fertile period, so fingers crossed.

Writerwannabe83 · 04/06/2016 07:58

babydances - shall we just bite the bullet and test with a FRER? We can get laura on board too!! We can just bring our "Peeing on Wednesday" party forward a few days Grin

BertieBotts · 04/06/2016 07:57

Well I'm officially in the 2ww today!! Yay, im so excited to start symptom spotting like mad :o

Huge spike this morning as expected. I'm quite excited that the temping thing seems to be working. I reckon yesterday or the day before was my ovulation date so to be sure I picked the later one and ovia is now telling me to test in 11 days rather than 14.

Foxglove88 · 04/06/2016 07:50

Thanks writer!
I love this place already ;)

Foxglove88 · 04/06/2016 07:48

Add to that "cramping and falling asleep every afternoon after work this week." I never do that!

Writerwannabe83 · 04/06/2016 07:48

Welcome foxglove - we are all crazy symptom spotters here so you'll fit right in Grin

Fingers crossed for you!!

Foxglove88 · 04/06/2016 07:45

Hello all!
I'd love to join you all on your journeys. I have been stalking these chats for a while while waiting to start.
We had pretty much decided to start trying next month but got carried away once on ovulation day this time around.
Anyway, I'm not sure if I am being a crazy symptom spotter or if we are in for a chance this month. I don't know how you stay sane on the tww.
I'm currently 7dpo and have had a stuffy nose/blocked ears (which disappeared within 48 hours), on and off nausea for 4 days, sensitive boobs and yesterday a pinching/butterflies feeling behind/under my belly button.
I'm not sure how long it will take until I cave in and test...
Good luck everyone x

Writerwannabe83 · 04/06/2016 07:41

My OPK definitely isn't blazing dark is it and I was previously under the impression that it isn't a positive (also for detecting HCG) unless the test line is equally dark as the control line Sad However, I did pee on an OPK last yesterday evening and there was only the faintest, of faintest squinters.....

I feel pretty normal in myself, nothing that would make me think I was pregnant but I just can't stop thinking about the weird orange/brown bleeding I've been having, especially the quantity of it on the toilet paper after weeing a few nights ago.

I don't know what to do really Confused

babydances · 04/06/2016 07:40

hiding that's great that your dp is so enthusiastic!
I'm now 9dpo and really want to test, too early? I don't have loads of money to spend on tests his month. Is it worth buying Amazon cheapies in bulk?

Hidingthefear · 04/06/2016 07:36

I'm no help writter I say go buy one Confused
We've dtd quite a bit then I think I found out why..conversation went a bit like this last night
DH: shall we have an early night Hmm
ME: yea I'm pretty tired
DH: oh I meant so that we could "cuddle" ;)
ME: again? Well ok yea
DH: well I looked at your app and it says your a 9.5 and you were a 10 yesterday
Shock
He's been looking at my ovia app haha so turns out dh is deffo ready for a baby lmao
And in the end we fell asleep without dtd oops

iwillbemrsminty · 04/06/2016 07:36

Writer my head is saying flush it!! But ..... my OPKs are positive now too. Blazing positives and my frer this morning 11dpo is dark! What are you going to do??

Writerwannabe83 · 04/06/2016 07:24

I made the mistake this morning of using FMU on an OPK (that doesn't count as testing does it Wednesday girls? Lol) and because I've got a strongish line it's making me want to buy a HPT.

I've been googling though and some non-official sites say that as well as detecting HCG it's also possible to have an LH surge immediately prior to your period starting, although I can't understand why that would happen?

My FMU is in a pot on my windowsill and I can't decide whether to throw it away to resist temptation or whether to go to Boots and buy a FRER! Grin

I need people to tell me to flush it down the loo Grin Grin

June Bus anyone?!
MrsGsnow18 · 03/06/2016 23:46

Amazing coming on here and seeing two BFPs!! Huge congrats to Jess and Minty!

I'm sadly out for June unless I ovulate very late but think that would then leave me with too short a luteal phase. Confused
Ah well, another month!
Hopefully more BFPs on here though, gives me hope!!

Laura05 · 03/06/2016 22:14

Sorry should have said it was 'me'

Laura05 · 03/06/2016 22:14

It was Ghost but sure I'm out this month Sad

iwillbemrsminty · 03/06/2016 22:06

Thank you everyone Grin will do another frer in morning I think! I have got tender boobs, I noticed it a week ago, like a stingy stabby pain in the side. Then the rest of them started aching. Ouch!

Kn33 · 03/06/2016 21:59

What I was convinced not why*

Kn33 · 03/06/2016 21:58

Congrats Jess and Minty!
Just got my DP to look at why I was convinced was the squintiest of squinty lines and have been told I am officially going crazy Grin

FriendlyGhost · 03/06/2016 21:41

Who was it that had one sore boob? My right boob is really sore tonight. Could this be a sign? I gave dd a really good feed from that side tonight to make sure it wasn't a blocked duct. I don't think it is but the other one feels fine. Only a week until I can test!

Writerwannabe83 · 03/06/2016 20:13

Could be your uterus preparing for the egg? Cramping can be a good sign post ovulation.

babydances · 03/06/2016 20:10

Just in the last hour *
