Grab your seats on the September bus (though I know there are a few of us still testing in August).

Absolutely everyone welcome - I'll attempt a list of tags for "reserved seats" but am guaranteed to have missed quite a few:

Aww congrats @MissM94!
I might be wrong, but I think there are two different digital Clearblue tests. One with the weeks indicator and one like yours that just says pregnant or not pregnant xxx

MissM94 · 07/09/2021 05:12

I've had not a lot of sleep as my ridiculous brain is getting over excited 😂 so I've done my clear blues with FMU.. has anyone ever had a digital that hasn't given you a weeks indicator? It did say to dip it for 20 seconds but I'm sure I only did it for 10, maybe it's that haha

Hi ladies, I’d like to hop on the bus! Apologies if I use any terms/abbreviations wrong!
Currently TTC baby #1, cycle 1. App suggested I would ovulate on the 4th but I had cramping on one side on the 3rd so I’m going with that. I’m only tracking with apps currently. So thinking I’m currently 3 DPO and the wait is killing me. I’m pretty regular each month so AF would be due around the 19th. I’ve learnt so much already from these threads.
Amazing on all the BFPs!!! Hoping for baby dust for all!

northernlola · 06/09/2021 22:15

Amazing BFPs!!

I'm 6 dpo, I think. Another 7 days until my period is due so will be lurking in the wings!! Last time I was pregnant (2018) I had sore boobs right from implantation. Had them long before I missed my period. I felt really strongly I was pregnant. So of course I'm obsessed with any boob tingling! Absolutely ridiculous all this symptom spotting, but can't be helped.

Good luck to all

MissM94 · 06/09/2021 22:13

Thank you @purpleskyssssss 🥺

EmeraldSpo · 06/09/2021 21:20

Hi all, I'd love to hop on the bus!

We are currently trying for #2 on Cycle 1. One previous miscarriage prior to my daughter being born in 2019.

Currently 2DPO, I ovulate between days 9-12 usually. Never used OPKs or done the temp thing so I'm finding it interesting looking at your charts and learning more. Also going mad already looking for symptoms which I know is absolutely ridiculous

purpleskyssssss · 06/09/2021 19:26

Aww congratulations @MissM94!! So happy for you.

This really seems a lucky thread all of the BFP coming through 😬

MissM94 · 06/09/2021 17:57

Thank you all so much! I'm only 12DPO and had about 5 wee's already today so I'm really surprised it's showed already! Just bought these to do in the morning.. absolute bargain at £14 😂😂

MrsF13 · 06/09/2021 17:40

All these BFPs are amazing!! Congratulations everyone! It's so lovely to see ❤️

I'm currently 8dpo so trying my best to wait a few days before testing. The tests are calling me though 😂

RKEE · 06/09/2021 17:33

@MissM94 congratulations! Star

Taurus683 · 06/09/2021 17:06

Wow.. so many BFP's. Congratulations everyone, I'm delighted for you all! 💕

I'm due AF in four days, I couldn't resist and tested early today (BFN). Going to try hold off testing again unless AF is late! 🤞

hoola23 · 06/09/2021 16:51

@MissM94 omg! Yay! Congrats hun!! So happy for you x

MissM94 · 06/09/2021 16:35

Ladies, I've literally only just stopped crying, I got a faint BFP at 16:02.. I cannot believe it 😭😭 DP is home from work in half an hour so just trying to work out how to tell him! Trying not to get too excited as anything can happen but I can't help feeling so amazed 😩

Bella2255 · 06/09/2021 14:54

Hi ladies! I am new to this forum and not joined one of these chats (buses!!) before.... so hopefully I'm giving all the right info and you let me ride the bus with you 😄.

-> I am 32 years old
-> Been TTC for 1 year with #1
-> Currently on day 34 of my cycle

My cycles vary from 26-31 days so I am realllllly hoping this is my month, however as we all know our bodies like to play tricks on us and throw curve balls at you every month 😆..... I'm sure I have a new rhyme or reason to think "this is my month"... every. god. damn. month !!! 😂

I took an early test a few days before my "period due date" (day 30) and it was negative. So now waiting for new test to arrive in my weekly shop delivery 😃. Couldn't face going to Boots and seeing the same cashier again 🙈

Lovely to meet you all. It's so nice to chat with other women going through similar struggles.

Sending you ALL positive and best wishes

Xxxx

LadyoftheWoods · 06/09/2021 14:25

Emz861 · 06/09/2021 10:35

Wow lots of BFPs to congratulate 🥰🎉 great news @Capricorn8990 that AF is finally here too, still waiting for mine but I have noticed tenderness in one boob today so there's hope 🤣 currently day 48 🙈 usually about 33-35 days so it's driving me mental! Hopefully it'll show up soon and I can start a fresh cycle, keeping my🤞for sticky beans and fresh starts ❤️

Capricorn8990 · 06/09/2021 10:28

Ahhh all these BFPs are amazing! Congrats 🥳 ❤️

I finally got my AF on Saturday which made my cycle 36 days long after having covid. Happy that it's here and can start cycle 9!

Positive vibes to all ✨

MrsBiddy · 06/09/2021 10:21

SherbertLemons · 06/09/2021 09:26

I can't believe how truly lucky I am. I got my BFP this morning!!! Total squinter on the First Response test but confirmed on the digital. I can't believe it, I'm so so (tentatively) happy.

Toot toot! The September bus is early...
mummytoolive · 06/09/2021 08:21

AF has arrived. CD 1 we go again 💪🏼

Congratulations to all the BFPs and good luck to everyone xxx

RKEE · 05/09/2021 22:25

Congratulations @Anotherboy and @hoola23

I am CD7 too @Lianna93 let’s hope this is our month too Star

Speccybibliophile · 05/09/2021 21:49

Lovely to see more positive news! Congratulations to everyone Smile

[quote coconutlatte44]@Speccybibliophile I had taken some ibuprofen when in very early pregnancy with my son and researched obsessively about it. You don't need to worry, particularly about a single pill. 🙂 Obviously don't make it a routine thing or go overboard but the evidence about it being damaging is very limited and may even be linked to weaknesses in the studies.[/quote]
Thank you for the reassurance. Started period much later the next day so that will teach me to stay calm. On the plus side headache and sore throat are starting to clear.
