Too early for a September bus?

I've (intentionally) missed out on an August BFP due to planned holidays but I'm crossing my fingers for a 7th September BFP/AF! Not sure if there's a September thread already?

Age: 27
TTC: No. 1
Cycle: 1

Getting my coil taken out this coming weekend and really hoping I'm one of the lucky ones whose cycle goes straight back to normal! I haven't had a period for years but have been tracking my bbt for the past month.

@Shazafied I can see that line too!

@GreatestShowWoman 3 days is still a long time. Hoping you get your bfp.

muddypuddlejumping · 27/08/2018 22:03

@ImpatientMammy surely it's a bit early at 3/4dpo. Last time I had terrible back ache during implantation and just knew despite it being my first. I then had spotting afterwards. 🤞🏼 though!

@em254 @shelly10 thanks ladies me too! I have found the acupuncture relaxing, it’s only my second treatment so hoping to see the benefits soon. I’ve booked a course of 12 so 3 months worth to hopefully help my cycles which after years of being regular have gone mental in the last few months 🙄

Thisimmortalcurl · 27/08/2018 20:34

That’s looking good Shaza , hopefully nice and clear for you in the morning .
I’m driving myself mad , every boob ache I’m thinking is a sign .
I remember with my others I would get shooting pains up my bits but can’t remember when it started .

ImpatientMammy · 27/08/2018 19:53

@dragonmummy17 I'd love a longer cycle this time as it makes better timing for my next ovulation. Obviously I'd rather be pregnant but a delayed af is a close second x

poodlepip · 27/08/2018 19:48

Hello!
Can I join please?
I am 31 ttc #1 cycle 2
Hi everyone. Good luck to those testing this week!!
Fingers crossed for all :-)
I don't think we timed it right this month but will try and be more on it next time!

dragonmummy17 · 27/08/2018 19:32

@Shazafied I can see that line... congratulations

@ImpatientMammy I think you're still in with a chance... maybe you will just have a longer cycle this time?

GreatestShowWoman · 27/08/2018 19:31

Got another bfn tonight period due in 3 days so was feeling hopeful.

em254 · 27/08/2018 19:24

@Shazafied That looks positive to me! Congratulations!

@ImpatientMammy, I would say your in with a chance especially if you B’d yesterday and today! 🤞

ImpatientMammy · 27/08/2018 19:23

@Shazafied that's positive !! Congratulations

@muddypuddlejumping sounds like it could possibly be implantation 🤞 x

Shazafied · 27/08/2018 18:02

Thanks ... I'm still a bit ... confused ?!!! I'll not believe it till I see it in clear pink and white !!

Or like with DD1 I might not believe it till I'm about 35 weeks gone.

I hope it doesn't disappear !

Good luck to everyone else, I'm still with you on they nerve wracking train !!!

cupcakesandglitter · 27/08/2018 18:00

@Shazafied I see it!!! Test again tomorrow? But looks like a BFP, congrats! Xx

Shazafied · 27/08/2018 17:55

Oh Christ what I have I done.

I'm 12 dpo, have been drinking loads of water and pop today and just 5 mins ago decided to poa(poundstretcher)s.

Now I'm so tired I'm not sure ... but could this be a faint faint eye squinting positive ?!!!

I'm going mad. It was so hard to photograph ... but my DH thinks he can see it too.

I'll try again with fmu of course.

Welcome back @sbhf1987! Hope this cycle goes well for you. How have you found acupuncture? X

Changingagain · 27/08/2018 17:43

Hi, can I jump over from the August bus please. I've finally had a positive opk today, over two weeks late and two days after af was due.

muddypuddlejumping · 27/08/2018 16:41

Well I just had very thick and creamy cm which was slightly blood tinged but I'm only 3/4dpo (tmi). Very strange!

Any thoughts as to what this could mean?! Or the usual symptom spotting/ clutching at straws 😂

ImpatientMammy · 27/08/2018 16:05

Positive OPK at CD21 have I got any chance? BD'd yesterday and will continue for the next few days just incase but my cycles only 26 days long I think the stress of being away with his family messed my cycle up x

Alex2790 · 27/08/2018 13:05

Had a bit of a break from here but here are my mine
Age 27
Ttc. #1 for 13 months
Cycle day 22 af due 3rd sept

Tests from dr say nothings wrong me waiting for fertility clinic appointment and to get my boyfriends sperm tested.

ImpatientMammy · 27/08/2018 13:05

Yeah @em254 it's the resting heart rate. Temping never worked for me and my fit bit tells me my RHR so I know it's definitely not in my head or anything I've done it's just that. Only thing is it gives me an incling that I'm not pregnant about a week before it can be confirmed x

em254 · 27/08/2018 12:21

@impatientMammy can I ask what RHR is? Is that resting heart rate? I don’t track that or temperature... I would probably enjoy all the analysis if I did!

em254 · 27/08/2018 12:19

Welcome back sbhf1987, spa day and night away sounds lovely, as does your acupuncture! Did you feel really relaxed afterwards? I need to chill out too, I feel my brain thinks about this 24/7!

ImpatientMammy · 27/08/2018 12:02

My RHR has gone down today which I think means I'm out. Still 6 days till af though so hopefully it will jump back up x

thatshabbychick · 27/08/2018 10:41

@KinCat I ended up caving this morning at 3.30am too (8DPO) it looks negative but if I look very closely I persuade myself I can possibly see the start of a shadow 😂🙈 I've ordered some cheapies off of Amazon which are arriving today. I'm going to do one tomorrow morning and if that's negative, I'm definitely waiting a couple more days! I have SUCH bad cramping! x

sbhf1987 · 27/08/2018 10:36

Thanks @Shazafied trying to keep myself busy then at least if it’s bad news this month I have a holiday to enjoy. Xx
