Hi all

I thought I'd start the June bus as I'm getting impatient!

I'm 31 (for a bit longer anyway), TTC#1. DH and I agreed to start TTC in May, but won't be ovulating till about the 24th. ETD 8th June! Feeling terrified and excited at the same time.

Join me if you will! Smile

I've started the July bus for those of us who unfortunately need to get off this one Grin

I'm still going to lurk here though to watch all the BFPs hopefully come rolling in. Good luck everyone Flowers

So AF finished yesterday, now DH and I can get down to DTD again this month, we have decided not to track my ovulation and to just enjoy the journey to conceiving our first child together. We started trying in May and was both so disappointed when AF arrived last week. Just hoping that this is our month, has anyone else noticed that cause we are ttc every where we look there's these cute little babies, am I the only one that feels slightly jealous?

haveacupoftea · 07/06/2016 12:57

negative OPK today and CM has gone back to cloudy... think (hope!) I just missed the surge on OPKs, I was testing regularly every day but on Saturday afternoon and evening I was busy and didn't get to test. Ovia gave me a score of 10 for Saturday and 9.5 for Sunday so I am going to go with their prediction and consider myself at 2DPO.

Feeling very sicky today but think it's just the pressure I have been putting myself under this week making me feel anxious Sad

Hi girls Grin hopefully I will be an official bfp member come next week ... I'm 5dpo not tested yet not good any tests in the house that's good for me lol we last dtd two days before ov to sway pink but now I wish we. Had done it more lol xxx due to test on 14th ahhh

Eva30 · 07/06/2016 14:40

Hey macaroni I'm identical to you - give me warning when you're testing and I'll test too Grin very intrigued with the swaying thing! Do you already have a DS?

MrsGsnow18 · 07/06/2016 17:00

Thanks writer for creating July bus, think I'll be heading there soon!
Fx for you Macaroni and Eva

MrsGsnow18 · 07/06/2016 17:03

Opinions please! I know the line is supposed to be darker than control line for OPK to be positive but this is the darkest line I've ever got! ( I always have a fainter line than this) I'm 7 days before AF due so it's not in any way ideal if my body does decide to ovulate but why get a slightly darker line than normal?!
I officially hate OPKs! Confused yesterday when closing the cap ( I use boots ones) some of my pee flicked into my eye!! Haha TTC is so not glamorous!

June Bus anyone?!
Poppydm · 07/06/2016 17:50

Id say that was negative MrsG. Sorry Confused Is it possible you've just missed your positive?

Poppydm · 07/06/2016 17:56

Or it could be that it's gradually going to darken if that's darker than usual as it might be the beginning of your surge. Might be worth testing again a few hours?

haveacupoftea · 07/06/2016 18:02

I hate OPKs too MrsG

It's so disheartening when you don't get a positive...

MrsGsnow18 · 07/06/2016 18:24

Thanks poppydm and haveacupoftea

wispaxmas · 07/06/2016 19:25

MrsG, the only OPK I ever got a positive on was a clear blue advanced one with the flashing and static smilies. All others just gave me varying degrees of faint lines, even when I tested twice a day. It's totally possible to have a short surge and completely miss it!

GinandJazzHands · 07/06/2016 20:11

Hey Mbire really feel for you and your DH. Must have been crap having stupid AF come late and getting your hopes up. My cycles have been frustratingly irregular but once I've finally OV'd AF has always shown up bang on time so far so at least I've been spared that. Really good to know the kinds of tests they might do. Think I'm going to give it a few more months (only been six) then try and show the doc my charts - if my cycles stay so long and irregular I wonder if they will factor it in? I had one excellent cycle last month which was 35 days, but all of my others have ranged been 42-56 days long. Currently 7DPO, symptom spotting like mad - weirdly my boobs haven't been remotely tender and they usually are, but I can hardly count this as a good sign as I think they are supposed to be worse not better?

haveacupoftea · 07/06/2016 20:32

Gin i think the rule is that anything different could be considered a sign Smile

You may not have hCG in your system just yet but surely your other hormones go all skew whiff when they've realised conception has taken place? Though I am not basing this on any scientific theory whatsoever (clearly!) Grin

GinandJazzHands · 07/06/2016 20:43

Thanks tea you are my kind of symptom spotter! Convince myself of all sorts every month Grin

GiraffesCantDoMentalArithmetic · 07/06/2016 23:39

Hello all, and congrats to the BFPs.

I think I'm 3dpo, but like an idiot I went away around my ov date and forgot my thermometer. Anything could be happening!!!! Based ov date on OPKs which is a bit precarious for me. Temp is up now though, so ov has happened at some point. And sex happened at around the right time. So I'm in with a shot!

babydances · 08/06/2016 08:01

I'm jumping back on the bus... For now. I've told dp I won't talk about ttc anymore as its freaked him out. I was very very upset yesterday. Dp is not wanting another but has agreed to see what happens.
So I'm 13dpo.
Af due tomorrow.
Last tested 12dpo and it was bfn

Poppydm · 08/06/2016 08:15

Ah good luck Babydances. Sending you lots of baby dust

Eva30 · 08/06/2016 08:16

Welcome back babydances. Situation does not sound ideal but glad you are ok

Writerwannabe83 · 08/06/2016 08:22

Glad to see you back babydances - I'm sorry to hear he's still not on board but I'm glad to hear you in yourself are feeling a little better Flowers

babydances · 08/06/2016 08:30

I don't get much sense out of him. He is worried about not having enough money. (Recent pay cut). He said he's sure once I get pregnant and he gets over the shock he will feel differently.

babydances · 08/06/2016 08:32

So who on the bus has had their bfp, I've lost track x

Sakura03 · 08/06/2016 08:41

Hello you lovely bunch of ttc'er, I have returned from holiday and OMG do I have a lot of catching up to do! This bus moves so fast and I belive there's been a couple of BFP'sFlowers
Cd15 here, haven't used opks this cycle, dtd on cd12 and cd13 hoping to dtd again tonight. Had loads of ewcm (but I always do and I'm on cycle 15? Lost count). Will read back on the updates tonight. Enjoy the sun everyone.

babydances · 08/06/2016 10:57

It's 13dpo if I test with a frer will it be accurate if it's not fmu?

MrsGsnow18 · 08/06/2016 12:22

Fingers crossed for you babydances!
I'm feeling cramps like AF but it's still a week away! I don't want to be hopeful but I'm not jumping off the bus yet either! If I missed my ov!?
I use Ovia and M calendar and then predicted ov around the 30th so if that was the case I'd be 9dpo. I got a BFN last night.
I hope AF stays away!!! I don't want to get my hopes up but I feel so excited right now because I have cramps!
