May Bus

Fingers crossed for you @winterwarmers

@LP17 Oh boy! Sounds like a bit of a nightmare. I guess you just need to weigh up how the stress of both is making you feel. I'm one of those people who count everything in cycles now - I.E. 9 weeks for me would be 2 cycles which makes it sound more manageable somehow 😂 TTC brain is funny!

cd21 and i finally had a temp rise hopefully the vit b6 will help and my lp will be long enough fx

Think I'm out this month already. Dh is crazy busy with a gig every single day for the next two weeks. So I will only manage sex tomorrow day and
not over the weekend . I've got my presead, clear blue sticks and grapefruit juice though

8 or 9dpo today and only a vvvvvvvfl on ic if at all. Feel like af is coming soon so ah well. Had ewcm today too so checked on my ov monitor but not ov again or anything. Gah.

@Spottyyellowdress So your day 21 bloods being dissatisfactory doesn't necessarily mean you're not ovulating. This could mean you just ovulate less frequently than someone who ovulated regularly. Luckily, they have meds now to help with Ovulation so it's not the end of the world. You still have steps to take IF it is that you're not ovulating/ as often. At least you have answers now rather than just spending another year not conceiving and not knowing why.

It's really important to look at the positives or you'll just make yourself really miserable and stressed. And we all know that if there's ever one thing that will make you not be able to conceive, it is stress!
Look forward to the appointment to see what's happening rather than worry. You can't worry about something that hasn't happened yet!

@lp17 yep, got to just put it out of my mind until then - even asked if someone could just phone me to explain what it meant but they’re totally booked up - it might be that I just need it redoing and I don’t want to spend a week crying over nothing!

@clairehr extension was meant to be finished in about 4 weeks time. Realistically I think it's going to be at least another 9...or it will never end Tempted to pack in TTC honestly I think the stress of the extension added to TTC stress means I'm never fully relaxed!

@ClumsyFool unreal - I would feel exactly the same. I'm very sorry - see you on the June bus.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you @babybeany but otherwise see you on the June bus.

Sorry AF got you @ClumsyFool
I have been feeling really positive this cycle until this morning. I’m not due af until Tuesday but I’ve just got this feeling she’ll turn up bang on time. I caved yesterday and POAS which of course was a bfn! Onto cycle 10! See you all on the June bus! 🚌x

@LP17 sigh Stress is such a b! Maybe we just need to count these months as practice! How long do you think the extension will take? Is there any way of getting away from it all for a week (FW) to try and let your body relax?

I’m out, woke up to the arrival of af, one full week late, I was pretty sure it was coming today as I got on the scales yesterday and had put on 2lb overnight, which has again disappeared this morning, was exhausted all day and last night I cried my eyes out for a good hour.
Until I was late I felt pretty relaxed this cycle as I wasn’t expecting anything so being 7 days late gave me false hope and was pretty mean. So I’ll be hopping on the June bus and starting again. Fx to everyone else.

Supposed to be 3DPO but I've still got lots of EWCM so I am wondering if because my temps are all over the place Fertility Friend has got it wrong :S

Fingers crossed for everyone still waiting to find out either way.

@spottyyellowdress oh next Thursday!!! What a pain - lots of self-care in that time - walking, baths, reading and stress wine????

@clairehr my stress levels are so high it's a joke I don't think we will stand a chance of BFP until stupid house extension finished and fuck knows when that will be! Fingers crossed for you x

Hi ladies sorry I've been totally AWOL on this board I've been trying to actually "chill" this month....until the symptom spotting starts lol!!! Anyway decided not to temp or use opks so totally guess work and listening to my body I am currently 1dpo have dtd twice in fw but staying positive. Still waiting for blood result so I will report back. Good luck everyone in the tww xx

@LP17 Yes, at least you can have a clearer picture of when to DTD as well

Doing ok here, not hopeful this month as been so stressed! We danced at the right time, and still have fingers crossed, but I just wouldn't be surprised to see AF arrive bang on time!

I'm out. I think AFs come early and two BFNs this week! Maybe next time!

@lp17 can’t get an appointment til next Thursday! 😭 Imagine all the stress wine I will get through in that time!

@spottyyellowdress I'm sorry! Hopefully they'll be able to shed a bit of light on it for you tomorrow??

@hidcat I hope so! Obviously jumping to conclusions though. Although I have never had a positive on a clear blue digi opk so maybe that’s why...Thursday is such a long time to wait for an answer!

@Spottyyellowdress how horribly vague! Hopefully it's a problem with the test rather than your ovulation.

@spottyyellowdress oh dear, sounds tough. Hopefully now they know this, they can suggest ways forward to help with ttc. Fx for you

@lp17 sorry that af is imminent...fingers crossed the next one’s your cycle!!!🤞🤞☝️

@lp17 to check if I was ovulating- seems I’m not which would explain why it’s not happened yet!

@spottyyellowdress sorry to hear spotty - what was the blood test for?

Very sorry to those who have had early losses - it's so cruel. Fingers crossed for those in the 2WW.

I'm 12DPO today but have been spotting (mainly brown) for 2 days - my temp dropped this morning and I have stabbing pain/cramps so likely I'll see AF in the next 24 hours. Hope I don't see too many of you on the June bus!

finally got peak fertility :) going to dtd for the next couple days and the. hopefully will see a temp rise
