November Bus - testing first week of November 2019

Ah sorry @MrsLEB that sounds awful 🙁 I hope you feel better soon.

I am 8dpo and I have been farting so much, having vivid dreams (about farting 🤣) and my boobs no longer fit in my tunic at work, I’ve had to wear a size up. And my armpits and nipples kill.

I am taking these as positive signs because the alternative is pure embarrassing. My poor OH.

Congratulations @BurnerPhone amazing news! On the CB tests is it 2-3 weeks since conception or since previous af?

CD26 and 9dpo and I've got that overall af feeling today. Not crampy just bleughhhh! I want to cry, I want to eat, I want to sleep. I certainly don't want to be at work. Or engage with anyone in person. Luckily I have my own office and lots of staff are on leave this week but I would still rather be at home curled up with a blanket in front of the tv. I'm leading a meeting for 10 people tomorrow morning and I'm dreading it feeling like this. I have no enthusiasm to give to work rn.

Morning everyone! 9dpo today and have some of my usual pre af feelings, the kind of cramping I always get. I've felt out of sorts since having my bout of diarrhoea on Sunday morning, nausea and slight ovary twinges, but the other cramping feelings I have feel like af cramping.

@BurnerPhone congratulations!!

Thank you everyone! I'm sticking around to see how you all get on, keeping my fingers crossed x

@BurnerPhone congratulations!!! 👏🏻🥳 x

Congrats @BurnerPhone wishing you a healthy and happy 9 months pregnancy.

can't quite believe it yet! Hopefully it will stick!

Hoping to be the start of lots more positives to come from you all, wishing you all lots of luck and baby dust. Xxx

@Mycrazylife85 fingers crossed for you! Hope the bloods go well :).

@CouscousEvaporator 👋, funny how times flies and we bump into the same people again, cramps sound promising. Fingers crossed for you this month!

I’m due AF today... she hasn’t appeared yet. Done two 10miu ICs so am 99% not prego. So annoyed she’s not shown as jusy want to start the next cycle! Have felt cramps since Friday which is odd though but if it was implantation pains surely HPT would be positive by now :(. Fed up this cycle!

@Nic555 thank you so much. That was really interesting and makes a lot of sense. I too have a tilted pelvis (apparently) and also cervical ectropion which may explain the pre-period bleeding. Glad you got your smear done. Mines due in December. Good luck ladies. And thank you again ☺️

Hey everyone. No change from my side, still sitting here zero symptoms. Doesn't feel like anything is going on.

Think I'll cave and buy more CB Digital OPKs tomorrow. When you buy a new pack, do you use the new tester/holder or reuse the one from your last pack? I thought I'd read somewhere that the first CB OPK you do is always negative as it reads your baseline, so not sure whether to reuse the same one or not, seeing as that has already figured out a baseline.

Thanks :) x

@Mycrazylife85 I came off the pill beginning of June had two really long cycles and seems to have settled last month. I've seen posts about agnus cactus being good to help people ovulate earlier?

I went for a Bupa check up today I get them free with work it's the first time I've been. So I made the most of my 45 minutes with the doctors asking about conceiving. She worked in a fertility clinic before. It was actually reassuring. She said it's completely normal to take 12 months and even if at 12 months you haven't conceived it doesn't mean anything is wrong. I asked about my tilted cervix and my blood type just questions I'd never go to my Gp for. She said the best way to know you've ovulated is your CM and when you notice that just go for it 😂 based on my two long cycles she said she'd probably start the year from now as sounds as if my hormones are only just back to normal. So that took the pressure off a bit. She was so nice I took the plunge and had a smear done and apparently my cervix looks nice and healthy so that's good to know. I also mentioned luteal phase and she didn't think that was an issue. Best advice is to not stress as that can mess up ovulation.

I know it's stuff we have all read before but definitely helped me speaking to her so if anyone worried go to your gp just for peace of mind

@BurnerPhone have you tested yet?

@Maisy24 thank you. I'm looking forward do hopefully seeing some BFP end of the week xx

@Tamalama I had the same around 7dpo I think (1st cycle & not 100% of ovulation date!) I was out walking with my son in the buggy and all of a sudden I got a cramp and had to run home and let’s just say it was the worst case of D ever! TMI I know!A few mins later I had the smallest amount of spotting and nothing since. The next day I was hit with thrush. Really tmi but for my first month of trying im feeling like I’ve a list of symptoms as long as my arm. No sore boobs or heartburn though which were my first symptoms on my 18 month old so I don’t think we were lucky this month.
I’m scared to test yet though but period due on Wednesday.

I am 7dpo today and have had cramps on and off all day. This is definitely not normal for me 🤞🏻

Hi @MrsMeow2019 good to see you on here 🙂 hope you’re ok.

@Tamalama I also have heard upset stomach can be an implantation sign!

How is everyone getting on? I’m testing Sunday I think. This week is going to drag!

@MrsLEB good idea. I find it really useful. Today I have mild mid cramps. I log down the symptoms on flo in the free text section which is useful. Saves me over analysing and keeps me chilled.

@Maisy24 thank you so much. I couldn't agree more. Fingers crossed. I'm also 8dpo. I'm due Saturday I think but suspect it'll arrive earlier.

@BurnerPhone that sounds promising! Got everything crossed for you:

@Nic555 @Skyla01 @MrsLEB @Mycrazylife85 @ceebee21 @Tamalama And all the other lovely ladies, I'm on CD5 now so I'm hoping and praying at least some of you get BFP this month, we deserve some good news! Best of luck ladies xxxx
