April Bus

@Juno231 - How are you getting on? Anymore? Keep me posted. You helped me a lot :)

@Glow1234 - I'd advise, if you have zero clue about your ovulation date, use the Tesco Ovulation tests! :-)

They're about £9-11 for a pack of 10 or 11 I think, so you can buy 3 and test every day.

Remember your LG Surge comes about 24-36 hours prior to ovulation.

I've been on contraception for 13 years - Implant, POP and Combined
Had a Cone biopsy May 2019 after CIN3 Cells at Smear and Stage 0-1 cancer cells by colposcopy. 2 home managed post-op infections and 1 hospital admission for a post-op infection (which caused an unknown miscarriage - found out after it happened - as the strong antibiotics voided POP pill)

Spoke to my GP in Feb and he said "it won't be easy or simple/you cannot plan" - he spoke about hormones to encourage ovulation if it wasn't regular due to op and change of contraception - Stopped POP on 15th Feb. Didn't ovulate in Feb. Ovulated 1st April. Now BFP at 4+6 weeks :-)

Cd24 and not a peep, just have massive boobs, fingers crossed for a week or so...

@fertility1 they are wondfo brand, read a lot of good reviews on them and so far are looking like they are about more sensitive.
@Juno231 yeah I did a hcg at the same time which is negative, I already had a huge surge around on CD 17, so got no clue. Recently just started BBT, so think I might call it quits this month and try again next month.

Hi everyone I am new here and just looking for abit of advice or to see if anyone had been in the same boat
Had my implant removed in July 2019 after being on them for 9 years
Since then I have only had 4 periods and before the implant I was regular last one was 20.03.20 and that was my first since Christmas
First month of TTC I tried to track based on last period but they are so irregular so I thought I would test for ovulation but all my ovulation tests were negative.
Been test and this is the day after my "period is due"(if they were regular) and got a negative result.
Would you say its definitely not happend for us this month or should I continue to test?? , finding it all quite confusing due to irregular periods

Thank you

@fertility1 I'm 12 DPO

@Internetaddictgirl and @juno231 how many dpo / cd are you both now?

@Megan1591 have you taken a hpt cause I hear a lot of women get positive OPKs when pregnant?

@internetaddictgirl I'm not really sure what's going on anymore as AF didn't really show after that bleeding this morning and I never spot pre-AF. Fingers crossed for both of us.

@Fertility1 no AF in Ernest but a little bit more brown tinged discharge today so it’s taking its time but sure AF is on her way 😔

@Internetaddictgirl still no af and BFN for me! Cd33 now. How are you.

@Megan1591 looks like a positive opk to me. Which brand of OPKs is that.?

I am not sure when to test as my cycles are really irregular, I will try to hold until Saturday 25, that will be longer than any cycle and I think about 18dpo... Try being the key word

Well what was only supposed to be a ‘lay down’ resulted in a 2.5hr nap!! Thank goodness hubby is here to sort our little ones out. I very rarely nap in the day so to have two in one day is unheard of, however it could just be mum life in lockdown catching up with me, lol!
@Franklydear Oh let’s hope and pray. I see you are the same CD as me, when are you due to test?
@Digsy10 The pink spotting sounds promising, I never experienced implantation bleeding in my pregnancies however I know of so many people that did so I have everything crossed for you. xxx

I’m honestly not sure at all, cycles are so irregular I gave up tracking it!!!

@Digsy10 how many dpo you think you are, it well could be if too early for af
@bojangles i keep having all symptoms going through the different cycles, I feel more like it this time, here’s hoping no afs show up this time...

Hi Ladies, just wondered if I could join? I’m CD23, approx 8/9dpo. Have had awful lower back pain today, so much so I’ve had to come for a lay down, fell asleep on the sofa earlier too! AF due on the 24th. xxx

Ok CD 29, I have long cycles usually around 35 days, haven’t tracked ovulation this month but have a dull achey sensation in lower abdomen, feel a bit blurghhhh in general and having very pale pink spotting when I wipe today.... could this be implantation? Ive never had this before when Af has arrived so I’m confused 🤷🏼‍♀️ Done a clear blue test but BFN

Anyone had anything similar? X

Cd23 and nothing happening, except that I skipped lunch as I cannot face it, had a bit of toast in the morning but I feel totally nauseous, trying not to read much into it, I had this before af on other cycles...

Thanks ladies for your reply think I will ride it out and wait and see if af arrives xxxxz

@internetaddictgirl I've looked it up and looks like it can be red for some. I will say it was a much brighter red than what I'm used to, and I haven't had any more since - not even when I wipe now. Fx!

CD 28 and this my OPK. Period is due in the next couple of days. BFN this morning. Late ovulation? Thoughts?

@Juno I’m not sure tbh but worth keeping hopeful!! I haven’t had any more blood but my cervix has gone hard (tmi) which Dr Google says is a bad sign

@Hoping1mabe if you use an early detection kit?

@internetaddictgirl since I came off the pill in Oct it has been a bit all over the place - varying from 24-30 but usually around the 28 mark. It was bright red though which I thought wasn't the thing for implantation bleeds? I'm happy to keep hoping though!

@Hoping1
Don't be disheartened if not, but I did get my last bfp at 10/11 dpo on a Frer!
Got an 18 month old now from that!

@Hoping1 it might be a bit early so don’t despair if bfn, sorry to all the af, as @Juno231 says there is always next month, cd23 here, prob 11dpo, in principle late, irregular cycles, I’ll hold on a bit longer to test... but I’m getting hopeful
