March bus

From the February bus that should say!!

Hey ladies 👋🏼

Jumping over from the March bus, AF expected today/tomorrow as my temp dropped massively this morning 😐

TTC #1
Cycle 15 😨
AF/BFP due around 26th March

Good morning ladies, I am just waiting, I'm afraid, nothing to report, cd18, I think about 4-6 days after ovulation as I started to feel twinges then, TTCing#2 at 42.

Here we go again, girls ❤️
I got my AF yesterday so now officially joining March bus.

I was sooooo upset that I stayed in hiding for 24 hrs. I really thought this would be our month....

Anyway, today I ordered the bb thermometer. I already started using the ovulation tests last month and also tried the Conceive Plus lube.

I think I will start baby aspirin, too? I drink Proceive Max.

Just in case you are interested : I am 36, have been TTC for 3 months, have two kids from my previous marriage.

Good luck everyone 🍀❤️

I'm still stuck on the agonising boobs symptom. 6dpo and they haven't just swelled. Even the top which was flattened from breastfeeding years ago are solid. Also looks like a veiny map of the motorways.
Won't even let DP look at them because that hurts 😆

That’s probably the best way to go, I got a fairly good positive on CD16 last cycle, I’m CD16 today and got my halfway-to-positive on Saturday so maybe just ovulated early this month 🤷🏻‍♀️

The darkest one I got last cycle was only about halfway to positive! But that did correlate with ov pain for me, so maybe use the darkest one from last cycle as a guide?

Yeah I drink loads of water so that could be it 🤷🏻‍♀️ I don’t get ov pain so can’t go by that either! Trying to track CM but that doesn’t seem to have any idea what it’s up to at the moment either 😂

@MrsB2019x I get this with OPKs too, I think it's because I drink a lot of water - it says that diluted urine can affect the results - could that be the case for you? I'm going by my darkest one combined with ov pain as they matched up fairly well last cycle!

Completely confused, OPK’s were starting to pick up from Saturday, but got fainter yesterday and the test line has completely disappeared today. I didn’t have a strong line either they were just starting to get a little bit darker.

What the heck. 😩

Pretty sure the witch arrived today so I guess that means I'm graduating from the Feb bus to the March bus! AF is weirdly two days early this time around which messes with my ovulation prediction but I think it means I'll ovulate on the 7th. Will start doing OPKs on the 4th to double check though.

BTW I'm TTC #1 and this will just be cycle 2

CD14 today, OPK this morning starting to progress so hoping to ov in the next couple of days.

@Newbie0818 I'm pretty sure running is fine! Everyone I know that has had a baby has continued their normal exercise in the early stages of pregnancy.

Currently on day 3 of flashing smiley face on the cb OPK hoping to see that solid face in the next day or so. Don't think I can afford another pack this month 🤣

Thanks all :)

I think intense workouts are not recommended during pregnancy but that’s probably further on. I’m sure some running will be fine if you usually do it. Suddenly starting might be a bad idea if you don’t though. I don’t do much running or intense cardio - mostly just brisk walking and cycling.

@Newbie0818 I go to the gym almost everyday and that's not going to change. I'm also on my feet constantly looking after DCs. It won't fall out! X

To worry is not silly, if you should, I don’t know, but the nhs website says there is very little you can do that’ll stop the implantation process...

Definitely.

Another question for everyone - to run or not to run in the tww/ early pregnancy? I know it’s ridiculous because some people even lift heavy weights during pregnancy, but I’m paranoid it’ll “dislodge” or something if I go running? Is this silly?

I think it's your bodies reaction to the hormones and everyone is different. Plus some months your body reacts differently to others.

Thanks for the info. I never ever had sore boobs before coming off the pill and every month since then my nipples were super painful, almost burning. This month it has t happened though. The body is a weird and wonderful thing. Wish we could see inside with a microscope instead of waiting so long!

I found mines weren’t sore at all last month with the chemical pregnancy, when usually the week before AF they hurt

Last month, my boobs got so sore and full that my bra hardly fit anymore, they’ve gone back to normal, obviously meant nothing

@Newbie0818 Mine always hurt. Round the sides. And feel bigger. This month they are actually hurting at the front more. Its unmistakable. Usually starts just after ovulation and lasts until AF, although they seemed late this month. Not everyone gets painful boobs though as a pms symptom so obviously then that wouldn't help. Lol.
I always feel more confident going out dressed up though- they look better. 😁

Half way through my 2ww - I keep getting cramps and thinking the worst (period), then the best (implantation), then I do a big trump and realise it was just wind!!!
