Hi all, I'm starting the July Bus so that we can all cheer each other along even in the very early stages!!

I'm here following the arrival of my AF yesterday so I will now be hoping to get my BFP in July.

My stats: 32, TTC#2, Cycle 2 and CD2.

I've just realised how many number 2's there are in my stats Grin

My cycles aren't too regular following a Mirena removal and a miscarriage earlier this year but I am expecting my FW to start around the 20th of June.

Looking forward to having lots of passengers on this bus followed by lots of us getting our BFPs Grin

My AF is due on Sunday. I've been crampy the past 2 days so I'm assuming it's coming early. But for future reference can cramps before AF is due be pregnancy?!

CinnamonTwist · 06/07/2016 14:29

Lizzie I got what I thought were AF cramps for a few days before my BFP, still getting them now at 5w. They're like the ones I used to get before AF rather than during, if that makes sense- not intense or painful but definitely crampy!

Lizziedoll · 06/07/2016 14:34

Ok thanks! Good to know! If AF still hasn't arrived by Sunday I will do a first response test. I've done 2 cheap internet tests this week and got 2 bfn's!

CinnamonTwist · 06/07/2016 14:45

I didn't get a BFP until 13dpo, I was completely convinced there was no chance this month and then AF didn't arrive so I tested and couldn't believe it! DH had a rather sudden awakening haha!
I had done a test at 9dpo which was BFN, so I thought there was no hope, I was just way too early! Wink don't give up just yet

MrsGsnow18 · 06/07/2016 17:12

I'm only 8dpo ( counting from day after positive OPK) not really sure how many days until AF as cycle not quite regular but according to one app 2 days away and another 5 days away. I have lots of Internet cheapies so will prob be POAS everyday until AF arrives ( but hoping she won't!)
Has anyone ever picked up early on the Internet cheapies? Before AF due?

LittleSparkes · 06/07/2016 23:17

Eva. We brought a test online for about £20

I get all my ovulation tests, pregnancy tests and fertility lubricant from there too

I got a positive on a cheapie back in January. I was only just 4 weeks... Before I miscarried at 5 weeks

Been cramping today too but it's still to early for period cramps

Eva30 · 07/07/2016 06:22

Thanks littlesparkes, will give it a whirl

MishyBakes · 07/07/2016 07:14

Cinnamon your 13 dpo test gives me hope Smile. so happy for you lovely! I've also got some cramping, but a drop in bbt is making me think chances of having conceived are less likely. Oh well!

And that's interesting about the sperm testing Sparkles. Might bear that in mind. Fx for you and Gsnow!

Lelly0503 · 07/07/2016 08:43

Hi everyone, did one of the clear blue tests that have the blue cross and it was BFN. I'm 12dpo but based on my cycle length AF was due yesterday. Iv had some cramps and a heavy sort of feeling then today some odd type pulling pains it's really weird. I am probably imagining things! I think AF is late because I ovulated later, so I would imagine AF Will start Saturday xx

Vanillaradio · 07/07/2016 09:42

5 dpo and I am symptom spotting like crazy. Woke up with a massive headache this am, had constant headaches in early pregnancy even before bfp with ds. Now am convinced there is a funny taste in my mouth. Also having constant wobbles of the what if I am pregnant, what if i'm not variety. I'm now sitting in the diabetic preconception clinic waiting for my latest appointment which is not helping the stress levels! I will start testing at 10 dpo I think as that was when I got bfp before.
Congratulations to everyone with bfp and comiserations to those the witch got!

LittleSparkes · 07/07/2016 09:49

Am I seeing things?
Is there a line or am I just wanting to see a line?

MrsGsnow18 · 07/07/2016 10:47

I'm really not sure littlesparkes I suffer from line eyes for sure!
Could you see it before you inverted?

Eva30 · 07/07/2016 11:09

I can't see it littlesparkes sorry. Pic without inverted?

LittleSparkes · 07/07/2016 11:25

I'm seeing things aren't I Sad
I guess I'm still really early X

MrsGsnow18 · 07/07/2016 11:49

Sorry I don't see anything on that one Sad

checking the online implantation calculator is now my favourite way to pass the time. It gives me a tiny bit of hope that I am desperately clinging onto Blush until the witch appears

LittleSparkes · 07/07/2016 12:06

Thank you Flowers

My implant is out wooohoooooooo

Lelly0503 · 07/07/2016 15:16

Sparkles I don't see anything but from what else iv seen those tests don't show a good line until much further on so you still have a good shot!

Iv just spent the best part of an hour doing various online calculators all which say my Period is due today, that's also based on me putting my ovulation dates in. No sign of AF Yet tho guess it's just a waiting game as I did a test last night and bfn so I imagine I am out xx

LittleSparkes · 07/07/2016 15:29

lelly your right there probably is no line, I'm just imagining things.

Felt so crampy all day. Plus my CM is super creamy and white (sorry tmi), is that a good thing? could that indicate pregnancy?
babydances great news on the implant! How do you feel?

I had mine taken out last year as it sent me insane, feel soo much better now

Lelly0503 · 07/07/2016 15:36

Sparkles I am exactly the same! I have spent hours looking at my pic, trying to convince myself somethings there!!

LittleSparkes · 07/07/2016 15:45

lelly now you have me doing it! Blush
I can't see a line but Fingers crossed there will be one soon

Lelly0503 · 07/07/2016 16:33

Fx for us both! Xx

Poppydm · 07/07/2016 16:48

Fingers crossed for you Lelly and Sparkles. Great news about the implant babydances! What happens now that it's out? Is it like the pill and takes a little while to get out if your system? I'm now CD 19 and had a positive OPK. I've been having EWCM for past two days so have been BDing but I'm not so sure we can go again tonight. We've DTD cd 14, 15, 17 and 18. Do you think we'll be covered or shall we try to go again?
