July Bus

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

Yes I had a couple of glasses of wine last night. The thing is early on they aren't even really attached to you anyway. After about 10dpo I test if I want to drink.

I don't think a hot tub will be an issue this early on.

fuzzinmybrain · 10/07/2016 22:20

Barefoot and Eva, 9dpo and AF due on Sat over here too! I'm so tempted to start testing tomorrow (I know, I know...) Will you both wait until Sat to test?

I signed myself up for a fertility and pregnancy study about pre-eclampsia. It's not paid but they'll give me a free CB Advanced fertility monitor, all the pregnancy tests I could possibly need and 4 extra scans when I (hopefully) get pregnant. At least if AF arrives, I'll have a fancy fertility monitor which im really excited about (as well as not spending any more money on OPKs and pregnancy tests)!

Barefootcontessa84 · 10/07/2016 22:40

fuzz I've settled on Friday - got some house guests next weekend so want to know before then, and thought Friday shouldn't be too early!

Eva30 · 11/07/2016 01:31

fuzz I'm going for Saturday I think

LittleSparkes · 11/07/2016 08:10

Still no period
Still BFN
Now CD 29
AF usually arrived CD 27.
Is there a chance I could be pregnant or am I just late?

Mamato1 · 11/07/2016 08:59

Good morning!
So today is my OHs 30th and I was hoping to give him a BFP for his birthday but AF arrived this morning instead. Meh!
Fx for everyone else. Xx

MrsGsnow18 · 11/07/2016 09:37

Fuzz that study sounds good! I dread to think how much I've spent on tests and OPKs Confused
Sorry mamato for AF showing up Cake
Littlesparkes it's not over until AF shows. I can't remember how many dpo you are but some people don't get positives until like 14dpo. Hope AF stays away for you!
I'm currently cd34 and thought AF due today, have ran out of tests now ( which is prob the best thing as now I have no choice but to wait and see if AF shows) after BFN yesterday at 11dpo.

LittleSparkes · 11/07/2016 10:02

Hey. Today is dpo 14.

Wish you all the luck.
However I'm feeling that even if AF hasn't come yet that I'm out. I should of had a faint positive by now

BertieBotts · 11/07/2016 11:37

Oh cool, fuzz! :)

I am just waiting. 10dpo now. Feeling pretty relaxed about things but I have had vivid dreams and am feeling tired and hungry so... who knows. Will hold up though because I only have cheap crappy tests. AF due Thursday or Saturday. Will test Sunday.

BertieBotts · 11/07/2016 11:47

Little I didn't get a bfp until 17dpo last time.

Vanillaradio · 11/07/2016 12:34

Well af got me this morning so off to the August bus. One very odd af, 6 days early and started v light with no cramps which has never happened before. Nevertheless is full on with cramps now so even if something was happening looks like it now isn't!
I hope not to see you all on the August bus and that you stay on July, hopefully I will be coming behind you on a slower bus!

Barefootcontessa84 · 11/07/2016 13:13

Feeling very pre-menstrual today. Grumpy and crampy Angry AF due in 5 days so feeling like this seems a bit early. Anyone else felt like AF was definitely coming but it was a BFP...?

MrsGsnow18 · 11/07/2016 13:39

Sorry for AF vanilla
Barefoot I felt very AF crampy a few days ago and assumed she would come early ( I had very early AF last month) but so far nothing.
I have basically concluded that my body is seriously toying with my emotions!Angry
I still have no AF but could come anytime of day and knowing my luck will come in full force at the most inconvenient time Angry

Butterpuff · 11/07/2016 13:46

Fx everyone.

I was about early in the month, then got sulky because we didn't dtd anywhere near the right time so ran away from the thread. Now AF is due today CD 34, or tomorrow, or Wednesday, and I cant help but hope that she doesn't arrive and I have a BFP. Even though I know that's about as likely as rain on the moon. I don't even have anything I could convince myself was a symptom. Gah.

Theknittinggorilla · 11/07/2016 18:02

So I was sure I had a bfn this morning but have been crampy and nauseous all day so had another look and am convincing myself there is a faint line! I took the photo about an hour after the test so there's going to be nothing conclusive till the morn but can anyone else see it?

Yes I think so but only just - like when I move my head up/down the screen.

Katie0907 · 11/07/2016 19:31

Hi everyone. Can I join please! Grin I'm pretty new at forums so still trying to figure out the lingo but here goes:

29; ttc#2; cycle 1; CD 32

I do not really know how long my cycles are as I have been on various chemical forms of contraception since I was 15 (barring the unplanned pregnancy with dd1) but I remember them being pretty standard 4 weeks so would expect the same now.

I think I feel pregnant but this could be wishful thinking. I've done about 5 pregnancy tests over the last week and all negative so far.

The waiting for af/bfp is driving me a bit crackers already.

ScandiManny · 11/07/2016 22:26

Congrats to those with BFPs.

CD28 here (or possibly CD14 going by the day my weird short mid cycle started although I'm think it's more likely CD28). BFN this morning so I'm just waiting for the witch to show!

SoozC · 11/07/2016 22:29

Sorry to hear af got you, Vanilla :(

Gorilla, I can't see anything but fx for tomorrow morning!

Butterpuff, I don't know what's worse - having symptoms but they don't end in af or not having anything to pin hopes on. Sorry you're in limbo, fx af doesn't arrive!

MishyBakes · 11/07/2016 22:35

I think I'm off to join the August bus. CD 30 and having full on cramps, achey back, plus cervix is low, firm and open. I'm not as upset as I thought I would be. I think I've learnt a lot this cycle (having been on the pill/implant for such a long time!). From now on I will not trust the boobs!

Fx you all have better luck this month than I do! And to those who have bfps this month, huge congrats, I'm really happy for you all Smile Flowers

MrsGsnow18 · 12/07/2016 07:45

Sad to hear of all the AFs but glad there still seems to be a lot of positivity about Joining the August bus. Think I'll be onboard myself before the week is out.

BFN on a boots digital this morning for me, AF late as of today. No symptoms but I was so excited yesterday and held off testing all day for FMU this morning. Seeing the words 'Not pregnant' was quite a downer Sad

LittleSparkes · 12/07/2016 07:53

Same here Mrs

I'm still hopeful though. I'm having no sign of AF coming. I'm 2 days late and 15 dpo.

I agree though... Is horrible to see those words

SoozC · 12/07/2016 07:54

We all understand where you're coming from, MrsG. It's the reason I've given up testing early. Fx, you're not out yet.

Theknittinggorilla · 12/07/2016 08:01

Sorry mrsg and sparkles. I got a not pregnant on a CB digital this morning too and am gutted as i am sure I had a very faint line yesterday.
Another day of uncertainty and try again tomorrow I think.
Good luck anyone else testing today. Fingers crossed for everyone.
