May Bus Continued...

@Rosyposyrose please try not to worry and take your DH approach of “life going on”. I work across all pre and post natal maternity care wards and I have literally just started trying for baby #2 so it hasn’t put me off and I’m walking around in full PPE all shift 😆💖 Ofcourse the care you will receive will still be to a high standard (albeit some appointments without your DH by your side) but you will be fine and totally put at ease 😊 in fact all the mums we’ve had discussions with have all said they don’t know what they were even worried about and actually post-natally they have all bonded a lot more with other New mums on the wards as they haven’t had their family members and fathers of the babies secluding them into their own little sections - it’s been actually quite a lovely experience. 😊 I hope you make the right decision for you whatever that may be and sending baby dust should you wish to continue with TTC #2 😊x

@Noble89 yeah on June bus now as started this morning as suspected! Hope June is our month, I really do!!

@Rosyposyrose you're definitely not being silly it's a serious concern to think about. We've been trying for 9months but when things started to heat up with coronavirus we did consider whether to keep trying or stop. My first pregnancy was very difficult and they had me in and out of hospital like a yoyo so I was really concerned about having to go through all that again at a time when there's a high risk virus going on. In the end we decided that given falling pregnant right away hasnt been easy so if we stop now we could still be trying a year or two down the line and at 36 age is starting to go against me so we're going to keep trying despite all that's going on but it wasnt an easy decision either way, there were definite good grounds for both options and even now I do question at times if we're doing the right thing.
If only we all had a crystal ball to see into the future find out when this will all be over!

Still holding out for the digital 🙈🙈 yes seems to be darker than yesterday's xx

@notyetamumbuttrying @SmileyT hey ladies! Definitely AF yesterday and in full force today!

It's all good though, means a new cycle and time to try again. 🤞 June is our month! Are you ladies over on the June bus already?

This was my frer from this morning.. still see a line there? It seems to be darker in real life xx

@Rosyposyrose this is a tough one as as you say it's personal preference. We're all carrying on because who knows when it'll happen? If u were to fall straight away then you wouldn't be giving birth until February so I'd hope by then, there'd be a bit more normalcy but who knows. If you're in no rush then wait a while longer, but don't put your life on hold for something that has no end in sight.

Hi ladies. We had been planning to start trying this month for our 2nd lo but I'm starting to worry about whether we should postpone with all the coronovirus stuff going on.

My husband says life has to go on but also understands my worry about hospital trips and giving birth in a pandemic.

I know it's a personal decision but am I being silly?

Think I might be joining the June bus ladies. Caved and took a FRER this evening and it has come up completely stark BFN. I know I’m still not due AF just yet (12 dpo today, AF due on Monday) so if she doesn’t show I will test again but if she does then I’ll be seeing you all over on the June bus thread! I do feel slightly over the jump now though considering the FRER couldn’t be any more negative; it’s kind of stopped me from second guessing like I was doing with the cheap strip tests with their annoying shadowy lines 😳 onto month #2 of TTC! May it bring us some BFPs we so very much deserve 🤞🏼 X

Hi Ladies.

Can I take a seat on your bus? I'm hopefully carrying lots of baby dust for us all!

I'm TTC DC2, first cycle with no birth control (previous it was just condoms) and I'm CD 8 so hopefully going into ovulation time soon (around CD 13)

Been getting plenty practise in so fingers crossed it takes this first month!

Sorry ladies that have had negatives or AFs arrival this weekend 🙁 Anyone else get just as gutted as hearing others werent successful this month as they are when its themselves!? I was so hoping to see lots of BFPs this weekend! It's so frustrating when you see so many women trying so hard to have a desperately wanted baby and at the same time so many who dont want one accidentally fall pregnant, it's so unfair! Ok rant over, can you tell I'm a feeling a tad emotional and PMT like today, everything has annoyed me 😂 Still 11days to go till AF so god help my hubby if I'm like this the next week and a half!

@SmileyT just done another cheapie and not even a hint of a second line.. maybe it's because I haven't long peed and I'm getting myself worked up too much. Going to wait until morning now. I can order some digital if my frer line gets a bit darker tomorrow 🤞🏻🤞🏻 x

@Noble89 see you on the June bus! Great attitude going into your next cycle. I'm trying to get my head right for it too.

@SmileyT AF has arrived. 3 days early but like you say in an odd way it's a relief. I'm gonna try and chill out a bit next month, I feel like my expectations were too high and I obsessed too much this month.

I'm genuinely feeling ok, a bit bummed but it's only cycle one.

Onto the June bus!

12dpo I think. Period due somewhere between Tuesday and Friday next week. Always varies. Hoping that fmu will give me a better result. Fingers crossed. He doesn't believe it until the words 'pregnant' are read on a digital 🙈 men!!!x

Sorry to butt in ladies. Does anyone see anything on my frer? Defo a pink line in real life. Very crampy
And achy 😖

@SmileyT ah of course, I did read that sorry. I've joined this one June Bus - who's on board? www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/3899138-june-bus-who-s-on-board. See you there!

I've been checking back on this thread cause I knew it was testing weekend for a lot of u. So sorry for everyone that's got that dreaded BFN, still keeping my fingers crossed for those waiting on AF though, as the saying goes 'you're not out until AF appears' 💜

@Kodasmom I feel so sorry for u with your tests giving u mixed results, that's the problem of testing early I think. I still dont think theres any denying your first CB so I'm holding out all hope for u on Monday/Tuesday for AF not to appear 💜
