March bus

Just thought I'd start a March bus for anyone just edging into the next month for testing/AF due!

I'll start with my stats:

Trying for baby #2 with a 2.5yo DD
Cycle 2 (although first full cycle after having the implant removed)
CD1 today
AF/BFP due sometime after 5th March depending on what my cycle wants to do this month!

Have had AF. Was light-ish. But now I've totally come out in spots on my chin. They will not shift. I'm supposed to be coming up to ovulation and my skin should be lovely and clear right now! My skin changes are usually like clockwork!

Is there any chance I could be...? Feeling pretty emotional too...

@paintfairy I think it was 8dpo when I was bouncing on a pogo stick in work 😂, my (faint) BFP was 9dpo.
Enjoy yourselves!! 😘

Hi @whatsthecraic91 I know how you feel with the late ovulation. My first month tracking it I only got a positive opk on CD27, and this time I only got a positive opk on CD20. If I don’t get a bfp tomorrow then I’m sure I’m not actually ovulating at all. My doctor has told me to book a hormone blood test for CD21 of my next cycle, but I can only book it on CD1. I’m currently on CD42 and no signs of af so god knows what I’ll do! It’s so annoying.

I’m never EVER going on the pill again as it’s really messed up my body so much, used to be regular as anything before going on it.

calimommy · 14/03/2020 14:57

Pretty relaxed here too 👍 7DPO and CD19. My period was short this cycle so my overall cycle prediction is shorter, AF due 22nd. I'm not symptom spotting but I usually get implantation spotting and so far none so feeling a little less positive for the outcome as a result. But we shall see! I've relaxed myself a bit overall, last month was supposed to be our last attempt but I wangled one more month out of him. But with the events going on world wide atm I definitely won't get him to agree to keep going. Also with this working from home we might end up divorcing anyway 😂

Franklydear · 14/03/2020 14:45

I am succeeding in chilling, so far, cd14 and had cramps for a couple of days, but nothing else and more importantly not caring.
Congratulations to bfps and fingers crossed for the hopefuls, I'll try not to wonder until the end of the month

whatsthecraic91 · 14/03/2020 10:11

Hey ladies how are well all?

CD18 for me and I still haven't ovulated!! This will be the second month in a row it's late and I don't know why! So annoying!!

@Adrianoska I agree with others you need to chill out!! and I mean that in the nicest way possible 😊 why don't you and DP go away for a wee spa weekend or something?

paintfairy · 14/03/2020 09:37

@Anon87 I think 4dpo would be ok. We DTD at 9dpo the month before last and I got cramping and bleeding at 10dpo. Never had that before ever. Last month I therefore avoided doing it and I'm now 4dpo and thinking the same. I'd maybe risk today, but not in a few days time. Just in case.

Adrianoska · 14/03/2020 09:29

Girls I made another mistake. I tested last night at 9dpo! Idiot. Obviously blank white. Omg. Then I got upset with the world.
I wish I could relax 😢😭

Newbie0818 · 14/03/2020 09:19

Well said @Sausage1990. It’s ridiculous how much time I’ve spent on google during these last 3 months. Even dh has started googling, and when that happened I decided we need to just chill! He’s so not like that. Quite sweet though.

Sausage1990 · 13/03/2020 22:53

@Adrianoska I'm feeling fine. I'm aware of some symptoms but I got those last cycle too and af came 3 days earlier... I'm trying to not over think.
I'm going to test if af is late so maybe Friday or Saturday ? I'm due Thursday... So if af doesn't arrive realistically I'll test Friday... I think it was easier to see af than it was to see the BFN.

HOWEVER I agree with everyone else, you need to step away from Google and try to chill. Having sex in your tww won't effect the chances of any sticky bean. It's either guna stick or it's not. There's nothing we can do to help it along, just pray that this is our time.
We BD during the TWW and it was good to keep some spontaneity in the bedroom... Because it can seem more or a chore when it HAS TO HAPPEN in the fertile window.

I'm keeping everything crossed for us all for March... Xx

Anon87 · 13/03/2020 18:58

@Adrianoska I had sex in my "implantation window", 4 dpo I think, please don't add extra worry to yourself. X

Adrianoska · 13/03/2020 17:29

Very true 🙂

Fingers crossed for you for Sunday 🤞💖

Newbie0818 · 13/03/2020 17:22

I really wouldn’t worry @Adrianoska if it’s going to happen it will. As much as I hate people telling me that... it’s true! I have been super dry too 😕 but I’ve been on soooo many forums and pages now and everyone’s body is different. I’ve come to the conclusion that symptom spotting really isn’t helpful!

My FRER’s came! Technically I’m “late” whether I ovulated on the 21st Feb or the 2nd. Still cramping on and off today so I’m going to enjoy tomorrow and test on Sunday morning ( either 23dpo or 13dpo). 🥵

calimommy · 13/03/2020 17:20

@Adrianoska step away from google

Adrianoska · 13/03/2020 14:53

(copied the conclusion of that study) Intercourse during the peri-implantation window may be detrimental to natural fertility. Methods that allow couples to time intercourse to the fertile window may decrease time to pregnancy by not only increasing the probability of fertilization but also decreasing the probability of failed implantation.

Adrianoska · 13/03/2020 14:51

Oh no!
Sex last night was a mistake apparently according to this study 😭😭😭😭

😪Devastated

Adrianoska · 13/03/2020 14:40

@calimommy I hope so 😊
Really really hope so 😚

calimommy · 13/03/2020 14:23

@Adrianoska not much can deter the blastocyst from implantation if it wants to, so to speak.

Adrianoska · 13/03/2020 14:04

@Lola871 😘 thank you 💖💖
I am so hopeful... And really wish I had some symptoms but I bet it is too early still?❤️

Adrianoska · 13/03/2020 14:02

Another thing... I worry about.
Last night we had sex. I would have been 8 or 9 dpo... Would that not destroy the chances of implantation?? 😢🤞

Lola871 · 13/03/2020 14:02

You're*

Lola871 · 13/03/2020 14:02

@Adrianoska definitely try and wait a few more days! If it helps I didn't have a particular abundance of CM, only possible symptom was tiredness but I also had a cold coming on so prob just that!! Your definitely not out 🤞

Adrianoska · 13/03/2020 13:52

@sausage so we are matching the dates, I think I am 9 dpo and my period due in 6 days.
When will you be testing?
How are you feeling?
I did absolutely everything this month.
Seriously.
😔👍
