Hi everyone 👋

Can't see a May bus, so thought I'd start one up!

A little bit about me...

TTC: #1
Age: 28
Cycle: 5
CD: 5
AF/BFP due: 10th May

This cycle I'm making a real effort to take my pre-conception vitamins EVERY day and going to use Pre-seed this cycle too.

Come on in and share your stories, symptoms and if needed, vent to your heart's content... Grin

@Melina81 @tisonlymeagain thank you, I hope so too! Going to treat myself to a glass of wine or two tonight!

tisonlymeagain · 29/04/2019 17:09

Fingers crossed that May is still your month @MeganMama28

Melina81 · 29/04/2019 16:58

@MeganMama28 ah, so sorry to hear it :( but happy youre still around, who knows, may could still be your month!

mommato3 · 29/04/2019 16:37

@BowiesJumper I've just had a quick read up. Apparently after O it can take a day or 2 for the LH surge to drop so can still be detected. May do another tonight or tomorrow and see what that shows x

mommato3 · 29/04/2019 16:35

@BowiesJumper I honestly don't know.... yet again I'm beat!!!!

MeganMama28 · 29/04/2019 16:31

So AF came early today ☹️ had a little cry this morning but feeling a bit more positive now, especially as my dates mean that I can stay on the May bus with you lovely ladies. I'm just at the tail end of it now!

(Updated):
Cycle: 2
CD (cycle day): 1
AF/BFP (big fat positive) due: 25th May

Got everything crossed for you girls that are still testing on Wednesday! Xx

Hello everyone! I’m back after being MIA for a little while waiting for my fertile week. It’s finally here and DH has a few days off this week (including his birthday on Thursday!) so I’m feeling hopeful that we’ll be able to get trying a fair bit! Hope you’re all well 😊

KittenMittens1 · 29/04/2019 16:03

Let us know how it works out though? I think my Dr is just very cynical of them haha,

its a £249 fertility tracking bracelet. My Doctor advised us to avoid these as he says they aren't anymore useful and accurate then using the free apps. but I suppose if people have been trying for like 2+ years I can see why they would but them.

BowiesJumper · 29/04/2019 15:55

What is an Ava meant to do? Not heard of those before!

Savvysaz · 29/04/2019 15:34

My Ava should arrive on Wednesday 🤗 according to Flo app I should ovulate on Sunday and I’ll keep OPKing until I get my static smiley. 🤞 for May conception for us all ladies!

tisonlymeagain · 29/04/2019 15:18

Just went into my local independent chemist and they were selling packs of 2 ClearBlue Digital for £7.99 so it felt rude not to 😬 (and some £1 cheapies might have been bought too)

BowiesJumper · 29/04/2019 14:38

@mommato3 they look about the same to me! If you'd ovulated would it show up at all?

@Tropicana1 I have a short luteal phase too. Good luck for Weds!

Tropicana1 · 29/04/2019 14:35

Tested this morning 9dpo - obviously negative what's wrong with me?! I have a short luteal phase so AF due on Wednesday at 11dpo. Currently trying to decide whether to test weds morning or wait until it's a day late on Thursday 🙈 who am I kidding it will obviously be weds

mommato3 · 29/04/2019 14:13

What does everyone make of these? Top is late last night bottom around lunch time. I feel today's is slightly lighter. Cervix is real low and quite firm. Wondering if I ovulated yesterday perhaps????

BowiesJumper · 29/04/2019 13:24

Well done @tisonlymeagain !

tisonlymeagain · 29/04/2019 13:00

@BowiesJumper I managed to avoid buying any! Can't test tomorrow as travelling for work so will have to wait until Wednesday (12dpo) which is probably better anyhow!

mrssunshinexxx · 29/04/2019 12:58

Oh shit only taking folic so better get something want a healthy healthy Brain! Thanks guys

BowiesJumper · 29/04/2019 12:56

@mrssunshinexxx there's iodine in pregnacare or similar. it's not in folic acid.

KittenMittens1 · 29/04/2019 12:53

mrssunshinexxx · 29/04/2019 12:44

Please can someone tell me if iodine is in folic acid or what is in iodine that you should take once pregnant or whilst conceiving I had no idea about this there's too much info out there 😩

May bus
KittenMittens1 · 29/04/2019 12:39

@AfterTrentham haha well theres still hope haha.

Not sure really when to test, 11 DPO at the moment is that too early?

mommato3 · 29/04/2019 12:36

Well today's OPK seems lighter so wondering if the peak was yesterday as the test was done near enough midnight so was reducing again. Would that make sense? I dunno

AfterTrentham · 29/04/2019 12:30

@kittenmittens1 I conceived DC1 on honeymoon, having fully taken advantage of the all-inclusive bar package. He's fine Grin

BowiesJumper · 29/04/2019 12:30

@tisonlymeagain I've been there! I've heard superdrug own brand tests are good for early detection. But if I were you, I would wait until first pee tomorrow (if you can!). Good luck.
