October Bus - More treats than tricks please!

Hi all :)

It's 8 days since I got my LH surge and still no symptoms. Although I had a glass of wine last night and it made me feel sick. Symptom or wishful thinking?

I'm due af on 2nd October so I will test next Sunday at the earliest.

My sister has told me that she has stopped taking her pill as she is ttc. I know it sounds stupid but I now feel pressure to hurry up and get pregnant before her or at least at the same time as her. Don't get me wrong I would be thrilled for her but it would sting a bit if she got pregnant before me as I have been trying longer.

@Bubble04 ewww I remember that, I used to be a primary school teacher....you always have an itchy scalp and are moments from a sick bug!

I haven't used ovulation kits before but will if this month doesn't work...fingers crossed

@Hardheadedwoman39 me too. Think I'm 8 or 9 dpo if I've calculated right... did an internet cheapie and bfn. Leaving the frer's till later... thinking one on the day ovia says I can test, and one on day af is due... feel soooo nauseous today. I'd love to think it's a sign, but think it's more likely something to do with the 2 kids in my class that vomited on me this week...

@Bubble04 thank you - I feel like I'm going crackers!
I'm potentially 8/9 dpo but only came off the pill a few weeks ago...did a test today and it was a bfn...

@felicityheather oh no! Hope he's ok x
@Hardheadedwoman39 I had this with my first DC. Really awful intolerance to alcohol. It was my first symptom that prompted me to test!

Thanks @Hardheadedwoman39 & @PabloEscobarlo he seems ok. Mostly banged up and mad he can't work. He's just started a new job he loves but it's all manual labour. His boss was not best pleased he couldn't come in this morning.

Never been pregnant @Hardheadedwoman39 but definitely sounds like a good sign!

@felicityheather that's awful for him - I know I'd be not so silently cursing them being out of action!

Question - have any of you had an adverse reaction to alcohol as an early sign of pregnancy? I'm never sick from drinking and was yesterday (and had only had 3 glasses)....I've had nausea every afternoon for the last week, sore boobs and strange taste but have thought I'm imagining it 😬

Oh gosh @felicityheather I really hope he's okay, such a painful injury!

Well DH came off his bike yesterday and has a broken collarbone as well as a collection of bumps and bruises. Think I'm entering my fw, although with my cycles it's hard to tell. Guess there's no sexy time for us in the next few days.

Well I hope it isn't AF. Push her away with a broom!

@CoffeeWithMyOxygen I always start symptom spotting too, I’m only 3dpo and I have sore boobies I think it’s hard not to, but we can go slowly mad together until we can POAS xx

I don't chart or use OPK so this is based purely on Clue, but I think 8dpo.

@CoffeeWithMyOxygen how many dpo are you? I had this a week and a half until my AF was due (and then passed). FX for you

I'm so confused. Woke up this morning with AF type cramps but I'm not due until the 30th and 6 days early would be unheard of for me. Trying to put any thoughts of implantation pains out of my head! If it is an early AF then I've no idea what's made my cycle suddenly change, I'm usually pretty regular.

AF arrived yesterday after a 38 day wait for her. AF is next due towards the end of October, which seems ages away!! Hopefully she is here for the last time in at least 9 months. I've learnt a lot in this last cycle, mainly that I ovulate later than I originally thought.

This is my first post but can I join please?

AF due Monday and next will be around Oct. 25th.

If AF arrives this time, then October will be my second cycle of ttc.

@CoconutGal exactly the same for me. AF usually bang on time and 6-7 days. Came early, 1 heavy day with cramping and the rest really light. Only 4 days in total. Now feeling like I haven't a clue what my cycle is doing and not sure when fertile week should be.

Right think I'm in my 2 week wait. Hoping for bfp on 5th Oct. Fingers crossed for you all, hope October is a lucky month full of babies.

@Lindypops33 I think I can see a very feint line :-)

Hi everyone, hoping aboard this bus.

Age 34
TTC #1
Cycle 3
BFP due 26th Oct

@holyshmoly. I don't know!!! I came off the pill 5 weeks ago and haven't had a period. The past week or so I have been positive it's on the way as had all the symptoms I normally get. But it hasn't appeared.

@Holyshmoly. Yes it's a cheapie one. Thing is I did one 2 days ago and thought there was something there. So did one this morning and, like I say, though that photo is rubbish, this time I can def see something! But it may just be one of those evap line things? X
