July Bus

Hi all, I'm starting the July Bus so that we can all cheer each other along even in the very early stages!!

I'm here following the arrival of my AF yesterday so I will now be hoping to get my BFP in July.

My stats: 32, TTC#2, Cycle 2 and CD2.

I've just realised how many number 2's there are in my stats Grin

My cycles aren't too regular following a Mirena removal and a miscarriage earlier this year but I am expecting my FW to start around the 20th of June.

Looking forward to having lots of passengers on this bus followed by lots of us getting our BFPs Grin

lelly if you've ovulated late them AF will be later than expected. This happened to me with DS. I got a bfp a week late and at my first scan they said I must have ovulated late as was showing a week behind x

Lelly0503 · 01/07/2016 21:33

thanks Mrs I guess it's just a waiting game. Every other lobby I've ovulated right in the middle of my cycle but this month was later. I tested today which was BFN, however I am actually only 5dpo so very unlikely to show yet so keeping positive. According to an implantation calculator online it says based on my ovulation i would implant on the 4th July, however AF is due Tuesday? Who knows! I will prob test next Monday which should give me an indication x

I always test if I'm going to an event where there will be drinking during 2WW.

Just bear in mind the result might not be accurate, and don't overdo it - if you need motivation not to overdo it, excessive alcohol consumption can reduce the quality of your eggs so you'd be scuppering next month!

OTOH a few drinks when the egg has barely implanted is really unlikely to do any harm anyway because it wouldn't even have a placenta yet.

Writes? That was meant to be Bertie's

Wibblewobble100 · 01/07/2016 20:13

Hey all, need opinions on whether to test tomorrow or not...... 9dpo (I think)... Going to a wedding. According to writes graph it's a 50% chance of getting a bfp if I'm pregnant.... It would make it much easier to avoid the booze if I got a squinter, but on the other hand it might be harder to go easy if I get a bfn.... wWYD?

Eva30 · 01/07/2016 17:58

Well that's given me a bit of hope lelly thanks. I'm like a crazy woman (again) ready to pounce on him when he walks through the door!!

MrsGsnow18 · 01/07/2016 17:45

Thanks mimilicious
Lelly sometimes there I think there can be less than 14 days between ov and AF. According to my ovia predictions that would be me this Month anyway, maybe you're the same?( not sure if that means I should push testing to later if the witch doesn't arrive)

Lelly0503 · 01/07/2016 17:26

Also I have no idea when AF Is due, I have very regular 27/28 day cycles which makes AF due tues/weds next week but I only ov'd a week ago so if it's true that AF arrives 14 days after ov that means I'm not due for another week. I did a test this morning but was BFN.

Lelly0503 · 01/07/2016 17:24

eva This was exactly me a week ago, we BD Weds, positive OPK Friday but didn't BD again until Saturday morning, if you look online it says BDing 2 days before Ov is good for conception but who knows! Xx

Mimilicious013 · 01/07/2016 16:42

Sorry knFlowers

laura hope the witch stays away

Welcome blink and good luck

trying we seem to be in the same boat.bfn and no af grrrr.fx one of us has a Happy ending.

Thanks scandi .sorry the witch got you early. I had a 19 day cycle once.mystery of ttc.

Good luck in the tww mrsg

TryingToStayRational · 01/07/2016 16:35

Laura I have exactly the same so am pretty sure she is about to get me now. Hope she leaves you alone though!

Eva30 · 01/07/2016 16:29

Welcome blink, sorry knFlowers

I'm on cd15 and I definitely ov this morning, had positive OPK and I had ov pain from about 10am-midday. I'm waiting for DH to get home from work to BD as we last BD on Weds and I'm worried it's not close enough to ov!

Laura05 · 01/07/2016 15:21

Aww sorry kn Flowers

tryingtostayrational fingers crossed the witch stays away!

I've had mild cramping on and off all day so think instead of POAS tomorrow morning I'll be waking up to the witch instead Sad

TryingToStayRational · 01/07/2016 09:25

Awww sorry Kn Flowers

Totally agree she's evil!

Kn33 · 01/07/2016 09:19

Not only has the witch arrived here, she's arrived early Angry
Going to rename her bitch

Blink1982 · 01/07/2016 08:18

Very late to the thread but I'm join cos I think I'm in with a chance this month Grin 34 ttc#2 only 10dpo however.... cramps which I at first thought were too many beans, AF isn't due til around the 9th according to ovia.

TryingToStayRational · 01/07/2016 07:55

Another BFN at 12 dpo. Normally AF arrives at 12dpo so I expect the witch will soon get me. If she doesn't arrive today this would be my longest cycle in 2.5 years. Sad that I know that really! Wink

ScandiManny · 30/06/2016 20:31

Congrats Cinnamon

I think I can see lines User, fingers crossed for an obvious BFP soon, and for you too Mimi

CD16 here and my spotting turned to light bleeding yesterday so I think that's me out. Bizarre, I've never had mid cycle bleeding or a cycle less than 27 days in my life Confused Typical it should happen now! Although if I take this as CD2 I'm still technically on the July bus, just about! So will hang about anyway Smile

MrsGsnow18 · 30/06/2016 18:51

Fingers crossed for both user and mini and anyone else testing soon!
Can't believe it's July tomorrow! Think I'm now in my TWW! I feel much more relaxed this cycle, going to try not to symptom spot!

user1466632763 · 30/06/2016 18:47

Thanks Bertie, trying not to loose hope.... Hoping for a clearer test tomorrow, going to try and not get up so early tomorrow!

Hoping that may give me a better reading.

Fingers crossed for you! I've been having the same, I've not had any spotting for a few days now... So hoping that was implantation bleeding!

How's everyone else doing?

BertieBotts · 30/06/2016 18:32

Ooh I can see it User! This bus is gathering speed already.

I am feeling very very crampy and grrrrr today. I am hoping that it's at least an ovulation sign or something.

I have also just registered with a driving school Shock I have two months to learn. Then I get a promotion.

user1466632763 · 30/06/2016 18:31

Good luck mini!! Please post test and share with us all, thinking of you. Good luck xxx

Laura05 · 30/06/2016 18:22
