June Bus anyone?!

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

I'm 8dpo and have had cramping today. Feel panicked but also think it's abit early for period pains isn't it? :(

babydances · 03/06/2016 19:16

Yep yep! I may have to test early as I'm not sure I can hold the suspense!bso might test Monday if I'm going crazy Grin

Sunshineface123 · 03/06/2016 19:13

Yay another BFP!! Congrats Minty!! Still got a week to go before I can test, have been in a terrible mood today for some reason, blaming hormones! Fingers crossed for you Wednesday tester girls Smile

Laura05 · 03/06/2016 19:04

Definitely! One for all and all that Grin

Writerwannabe83 · 03/06/2016 19:00

wispa - I hope you're right, we've got to stay hopeful haven't we Smile

Writerwannabe83 · 03/06/2016 18:59

Laura and Baby - shall we all test on Wednesday then?? In it together Grin

babydances · 03/06/2016 18:45

How many dpo are you Laura?
My af is due Thursday. I am considering testing on Monday or Wednesday. If I test Monday I'll be 11dpo!

Laura05 · 03/06/2016 18:37

Right Writer I'll be your Wednesday chum and we'll both test if the witch hasn't shown xx

wispaxmas · 03/06/2016 18:18

*I, not 'u'

wispaxmas · 03/06/2016 18:17

Congratulations Jess and minty!!!

And FX for everyone else! Writer, even if you got early bfps the other times doesn't mean the next time will be the same- u don't think how early or late an egg implants has anything to do with you or your history and it might take up to 12 days to implant and start the hcg rise, so you never know!!

Writerwannabe83 · 03/06/2016 18:10

I'll not be telling dh the reason. Not that he'll ask anyway, he's not gona care as long as he's getting his leg over

Thankfully my DH is the same laura Grin

Prior to falling pregnant in February (had a miscarriage) I'd had a Mirena Coil for 12 months and I was bleeding constantly so there was no cycle pattern at all. Following my miscarriage I've had two cycles before TTC again, the first was 35 days and the second was 31 days so I don't really know when to expect my period anyway.

I'm thinking I may test again on Wednesday if my period still hasn't appeared but I'm pretty sure it will have done.

I was sure I ovulated two weeks today but could be wrong. With my DS I had a bfn the day my period was due but tested positive a week later. At my first scan I was a week behind so must have ovulated late that month.

This was when I had a 30day cycle. Now it's up to every 5weeks.

If AF doesn't show by middle next week I'll test again but I highly doubt I'll still be waiting.

MizzisDee · 03/06/2016 18:00

Nothing to report here, don't feel any different to any other month but I'm only about 6dpo so that's not surprising I suppose.

Writerwannabe83 · 03/06/2016 17:49

laura - I let DH think it was a surge of passion as opposed to a period encouraging quickie Grin We had 20 minutes to kill before he had to collect DS from nursery so I thought it was worth a shot Grin

babydances I'm not late as such as my Testing Date (as instructed by Ovia) isn't until tomorrow but I think that if I had conceived I would have at least had a squinter by now but every test is just BFN.

I had strong positive OPKS on a Saturday night and the following Sunday morning and then at about midday on the Sunday I had a very sharp, acute pain in my side so I assumed that was me ovulating. It will be two weeks this Sunday since I ovulated.

With my previous two pregnancies I got my BFPs really early at about 9/10 dpo and so the fact that I've got to 12dpo this month and still not even a squinter makes me think that conception has not occurred.

Laura05 · 03/06/2016 17:48

Technically I'm not. My periods are between 4 1/2 - 5 weeks late which would be Sunday at the very latest. I'm just not feeling much symptom wise anymore. Think my mind was been playing tricks on me Sad

Barefootcontessa84 · 03/06/2016 17:46

I've also felt a bit funny the past few days (as though I'm getting the flu or something) but nothing has materialised. Bit concerned as boobs don't really hurt (although now they do a bit from all my extra poking!) - do they need to hurt for it to be a BFP...? Jess/Minty did your boobs hurt?!

Barefootcontessa84 · 03/06/2016 17:43

Congrats Jess and Minty!! FriendlyGhost I was going to hold out until next Saturday too, and see if AF comes sometime before then. I'm not entirely sure I'll be able to wait until then, but I'll try...!

Laura and writer are you late?

If so must mean you ovulated later than u thought?

Laura05 · 03/06/2016 17:32

Writer Grin
You don't half make me giggle. I'm in the same boat, just wishing af would appear so I can start thinking about the next cycle. Think I'll be jumping on dh tonight too to see if it works Grin

Writerwannabe83 · 03/06/2016 17:26

Me and DH just had a sofa quickie in the hope it might bring my period on.

I'm still feelingy crampy and I've had more flecks of brown blood on the tissue after a wee and I also felt a bit nauseous earlier but I have accepted my body is playing tricks on me.

I hate the waiting for AF though, I hate being in limbo so I'm hoping the quickie will bring things on a bit Grin

TheImprobableGirl · 03/06/2016 17:13

oh wow so exciting!! Good luck on your journey guys :) well done on working yours out eva I'm more of a hit and hope Wink normally I should be about mid cycle so I think I might be coming into FW? Who knows... Both dd's were born on the 21st of the month, that must tell me something!

babydances · 03/06/2016 16:24

Congratulations minty it's crazy what a day a difference can make to a line! Which tests did u use? X

Writerwannabe83 · 03/06/2016 16:08

Congratulations mrsminty - they are fantastic lines!!

iwillbemrsminty · 03/06/2016 15:39

Thank you ladies. I was supposed to be waiting til she is late too butter and ghost but I'm so impatient!

FriendlyGhost · 03/06/2016 15:38

Congratulations Minty! I might have to break my rule of not testing early at this rate!
