End of September bus

Hi everyone! Definitely think af is on her way. I've had the usual tight stomach, bloating, constipation, and being v windy! Always have this before af so just the usual symptoms really... 😕

How is everyone?? Just checking in

I’ve got cramps and back ache today but trying not to symptom spot.. maybe from ovulation?

Hope everyone had a nice weekend! Look forward to hearing some updates 😊

I'll join the roll call! AF not due till 23rd, so got ages to go yet.

CD 17 and finally got my flashy smiley on digital today, so planning to DTD every day now till static. I'm a bit confused though - is static 24 hours before ovulation or day of ovulation? Not sure whether I should be DTD every day until after static or not - what do people normally do? 🤔 Or should I be DTD every other day until static?

Hope you've all had lovely relaxing weekends! AF due around the 19th for me so not too long to wait now really.

Hey 👋 af due 20th for me and 2dpo! Xx

I’ll join the roll call too ... AF due tomorrow and definitely feels like it’s on the way

@lauralozzle aww that's so good to see thanks.

I'm correct and present for roll call 25th 🙈 ages away

I'll join the af roll call! Af due on the 13th. No idea my dpo as I didn't track ov properly 🤦‍♀️ I think it was early but tests suggested otherwise 🤷‍♀️ anyway, I guess I'll know either before or just after 13th... I have a few af symptoms so I'm not too optimistic!

Hi again, just checking back in. I'm roughly 3 dpo now, purely guessing, but seeing so many people from old threads getting there BFP is making me feel positive. Feeling alot less pressure this month its really nice, hows everyone else doing x

@forgoodnesscake mine start off light but then get slightly darker before I get a positive.

I’ve uploaded mine, you can see how quick it turns :)

OK so I bought a pack OPKs and yesterday and today were negative, should they get darker over a period of a couple of days or just - to + straight off, I'm due to ovulate on Wednesday according to Clue, but I feel like it might be sooner like 2moro or Tues, I'll DTD regardless in the hope I can cover it, if this all sounds a bit crazy it is..... Technically I've never tried for a baby before, my first three were conceived on pill, depo then implant - my body totally rejects contraception. We have used the pull out method for 7 years and it's obviously worked, but just worried a little that it won't happens as easy as I first hoped 😂

I'm on cd16 and AF due 25th which seems a million miles away.....

DP already thinks I'm nuts and it's taking me so long to get to this point, I'm scared to. Spook him hahaha

Thank you everyone- not sure when I start but it’s a huge weight off my mind.

CD14 for me today and first positive OPK today. So far managed DTD CD 8, 11 and 13. Will try the next 3 days on the spin. I’m trying to be relaxed this month (hence fewer posts) - not feeling positive, but hopeful. We will see.

@MrsD0147 lol, I had a cake to cheer me up! I've got a splitting headache and a two year old DD to keep amused as my husband is out of the country...

Me too @Tamalama but doesn’t feel like it! Just had a bar of chocolate to cheer myself up lol!!

Only a few days for you to wait then if AF due 13th but fingers crossed she doesn’t turn up for you!

I'm not sure when I ovulated but at due 13th. I've had some af symptoms since Friday. Boobs are so sore but not heavy or hard. I had these symptoms with my last pregnancy but nothing so far. I've had some slight vaginal cramping this morning too 😕

@MrsD0147 sorry to hear you've got af symptoms, hopefully she stays away!

@mrssunshinexxx @Firstimer703 Flo was about 4/5 days out for me too, I still use it for logging periods and opks but just generally ignore it’s predicted O days.

All of my usual pre AF symptoms started for me today 😢

@mrssunshinexxx oh no! Was it really that far out? I'm using Flo although trying to just dtd every other day this month to be on the safe side!

@mrssunshinexxx that’s very good self control 😊 with my dd I didn’t even know I was pregnant, took a test and was so shocked even thought we’d chosen to start trying, was within a month but I was 20! Now we seem to consume ourselves with symptom spotting and early testing..
I’ve promised myself I’m going to try relax and be less obsessive this month as last month was convinced I felt different and AF was right on target xx

Sorry if i confused things took an opk today and it’s fainter so negative but my app says because I had my peak yesterday i ovulated today? Confusing!

Oh thank goodness just didn’t want it affect my fertility, it seems the last two nights I’ve had out I’ve ovulated the next day

Good luck and only 5 days till you can test I guess?? 😊
