The July BFP bus PART 2 - All aboard the lucky magical number 7

[gillywillywoo]

The first bus is almost full up so lets all transfer on to this new shiny bus!!

The sun is out, the sky is blue, the birds are singing their songs... Now lets get some BFPs!

9dpo today... I will be walking past a pound shop later on my way to the find station... Might get some cheap tests.. Don't think I can resist!

Plus I've only got 2x clearblue digi tests at home and only want to see them if/when I see a line on a cheap test... Don't want to waste them, they're expensive!!!

Tube station not find station! Stupid phone

I'm 9dpo too Gilly,

I have tested for the last 3 days!!!! haha.
All BFN though - as completely expected.

I keep telling myself I'm testing too early but on the other hand I keep reading stories where women have had a positive result as early as 5dpo.

So I'm feeling very disheartened.

I'm also feeling a bit crampy today so I'm hoping AF isn't planning on coming early

Congrats cristabell and great news on getting your 2-3 fox

Thanks for the support everyone. I'll update on here when I get home. I'll probably be in there waiting most of the morning as she's never on time

Congrats to the new bfp's I was MIO yesterday I slept in till 12.30 then fell asleep again at 5pm, feeling the benefit of it today though.

Fingers crossed for the dribblers and the other SS'ers

Ugh this month I ovulated later than I initially thought so I am moving my bfp due date. So annoying as my cycle is now close to 40 days and this increases the waiting time!

Same here lovewine. Didn't ovulate til around cd26 this month so I'm on track for a 39-40 day cycle too. Currently 9dpo...just wish my cycles were shorter so I would have more opportunity to TRY!

I keep forgetting to temp when I wake up, remembered this morning but that's like the 2nd day out of 9...

9dpo here too. Going to try and be strong and not test till next week tho. probably

Yay purple! We're you using digi OPKs? When did you get your positives?
I always wonder when people think they ovulated based on OPKs... !

I got my first positive in the morning on Sunday 7th.. Also another positive on Monday 8th.
All my apps say I ovulated on the Monday... I'm wondering if it was more like Tuesday?
We only dtd on Sunday and Monday around that time so hope it was enough!

I'm feeling really sick today I'd like to think it's a symptom but I think it's too early. It's probably because I took my folic acid this morn instead of at night. Also I'm on a lots of veg and fruit diet which might explain the regular toilet visits (sorry!) I just ate a Mars Bar and feel miles better already

Mmm... Mars Bar

-drools-

Gilly not this cycle, did last cycle. Just used cm as at a festival! Surge on 5 July and think I ov'd on 8 July judging by cm. got my usual post ov boob pain on 10 July and cm stopped! No af cramps yet famous last words and usually get them a week or so before I am due.

I wish I had a better clue about when I ov. If I get a +ve opk it's usually 24-48 hours after that yea?

Fox yeah, right on the test line but like a grey shadow, not at all pink. I don't temp or use ov sticks as both times I've tried to conceive I've succeeded first go. I kind of think I may not have ovulated at all this cycle but if I did, going by cm it was 17 days ago! Anyway, really glad things are progressing for you this time flowers

Ahem.

I'm getting fed up of taking my temp and PIAC (Peeing in a cup). I'm might just wing it after this month and hope for the best

Disney I'm so glad I up on temping. It was stressing me out and I was dreaming about it and thinking about it all night! I can do without that!
Still using OPKs though.

Confirmed I have pcos. Having a blood test on Friday as that's cd21 and the day they test for ovulation problems. If it comes back that I am not ovulating then I'll be referred to fertility clinic.. Also have to have a blood test on cd1-5 of next cycle for other hormones etc.. She also said to keep trying tho as it would be better to conceive naturally too. On the bright side I have finally been prescribed acne cream :)

I kinda want to keep temping just till I see an ov pattern but it is just a hassle really. I'll keep it up this cycle and then give up completely if I get no readable pattern again. I'm fed up of FF telling me they aren't able to predict ov or coverline.

Disney/gilly I could never temp as I have to pee at least once a night so could never get a proper reading. Have only done one month of opks so far and don't mind them so much. Wish I could see if dps swimmers are working tho as I know my body is, do clearly the reason we haven't got pg yet is down to him

Oh no armywag at least you know you have it though and can deal with it accordingly!

What kind of symptoms did you have?? I'm a little concerned I might have it but not sure what I should be looking for... Was on the pill for 10 years which I know can hide the issue.

Sorry to hear that Army but least it's something you can work with.

gilly my main symptom was irregular periods since coming off pill in January and this past month or more I've had pain on the right side that's why the doc sent me for ultrasound. And I have crazy spots.. Never had spots as a teen but have them bad now!
