July Bus

Congrats laura!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations laura!
Me too bertie but DH was to knackered when he got in from work to BD so only BD'd one day of FW (Weds) so think I'm out for July too

Can you not get to OOH to check? I wouldn't take random antibiotics personally. With UTIs I normally try to drink lots of water and keep going to the loo to flush it out which normally works, but I did end up in hospital with one once which was not nice at all. In that case I didn't realise I had it because I thought I'd had a cold at the same time.

I am tracking BBT which is supposed to be the most accurate method to track ovulation. Today's temperature was a clear spike (more than 0.5 degrees higher than the previous days) and the previous 6 days' temperature are all lower which points to ovulation.

It's not hugely accurate especially as I woke up later today but it does seem to fit into what is expected so I'm fairly happy to take it as a guide.

User do you know when you ovulated? I'm not sure how to tell?

Thanks Bertie, I've some antibiotics in the house that I'm just going to start taking. Have googled and they are safe even in early pregnancy. Though I'm prob only 3 or 4 dpo as not sure when actually ov happened ( static smiley on tues)

Hello Bertie,

What makes you think you ovulated yesterday?

If I'm having implantation spotting today that's 7 days from when I had sex but also that would be within my fertile window.

So think you are right, more a 28 day cycle this month than 25

Right I think I ovulated yesterday and by inputting that Ovia reckons I had no sex during the fertile period, oops!

Oh well. This month would be particularly bad career wise anyway. Will probably be half hearted for a couple of cycles and then beef up the attempts again.

MrsG you can get a cystitis test at bigger pharmacies I think?

Congratulations Laura!

Congratulations Laura!!

I'm in a lot of pain today lower abdominal sort of pain, like really bad AF cramps. It's way too early to be implantation so I'm getting worried that the witch is showing up early. I also think I have cysitis maybe that where the pain is coming from? Anyone else ever experience this?

Congrats laura no squinting required!! Def BFP!!!

AF was due today but it has been known to be between 4-5weeks which is why I refused to test before today lol

It was a cheapy early test from b&m.

That was meant to say test sorry! 🙈

Laura was AF due today? And what year did you use??

That's really exciting!! Congratulations.

Don't work too hard :)

Thanks ladies! I'm actually in shock as I totally thought we were out! It's only due to feeling exhausted and nauseous since Tuesday that I started getting my hopes up! The line has actually showed up a lot better on here than my phone was showing. I'm working all day today, tomorrow and Monday so don't know when I'll get a chance to test again. I wish I'd bought tests this week when I had the chance

Looks like a positive to me Laura!! Congratulations!! :)

I'm due AF in a couple of days, but if your experiencing any symptoms etc please let me know :)

No need for squinting laura. It's a bfp!!yaay congrats hun

Morning ladies! No af so did a test and I need a pro squinter to take a look....

Morning ladies!!

How's everyone doing?

I need some help re implantation!

So today I've woken up with cramps on my left side and some spotting after the loo this morning!
This is 3 days after my week long spotting around ovulation cycle.
I'm either due on AF Tuesday or Thursday.

Could this me implantation?!

That's possibly it Bertie. I started it about three months ago and I thought I was a 28 dayer, so that'll probably be why it says due in 3 days i guess. And cos I've inputted when it actually arrives, it's predicting for when I'm expecting it on the 9th.

If you've only just started with Ovia it might be assigning you a 28 day cycle.

Hi Blink, Ovia started really confusing me and changing my windows so I just use Clue now to track everything.
Normally spot in for AF

So ovia says AF due in 3 days however on the calender it predict AF to be the 9th. It's usually around the 8/9th. Does anyone else have an ovia with weird dates?

Ha mrs I spend hours looking at various calculators to try and make sense of each month! It gives a % of each day that you've likely to implanted on based on ovulation, not sure how accurate it is tho.

Thanks laura I should expect AF next Saturday then as that would be 14 days from ov. I usually get AF when I'm at work which is shit as I have quite bad periods so at least if I do get AF it will be a Saturday and I can just hide in bed all day.

I didn't realise the impact of alcohol on ttc, I don't drink at all maybe 2/3 times a year but have a big night In July which is my consoloation if I haven't caught this month and now I'm thinking I will go easy so it doesn't impact me in August! Especially as the night out is two days before I start my FW!!

Thanks guys... Knowing that I'll probably test and if I get a bfn, remember that it could still be a bfp, and that a big night could impact next month even if it's a true bfn.

wibble I'm going to be in the same situation with a wedding a few days before AF due, so I do plan to test a little early with a FRER just in case. I have been cutting down drinking (apart from a bottle of wine each month when the witch shows up) but I don't believe that s few drinks ( to be social, haha) would do any harm if you get a BFN and then it later turns out to be BFP. Fx for you!

lelly I've never even heard of an implantation calculator! I'm off to google now!!
