Hi everyone here is the August bus carrying on from the one I was on previous month with u ladies.
Fx this is a lucky bus!
Had my implant out yesterday and gp said I should be good to go within a week.

Not too sure how to track so hoping af arrives to kick things off :-)

Ttc no 2
Test due date ??
Cycle 3 or 4 (lost track now!)

Eva - yes blue line is temp. This is my first cycle ttc, temps and cm check.

Eva30 · 24/08/2016 05:44

lousy maybe try opks next month to help pinpoint ov to find out about your cycles for the first few months? They're about £3 on Amazon. Your DTD really puts me to shame though, just wow!!! Wherever ov is you look like you've covered it

lousylear · 24/08/2016 06:04

Eva - Thanks. I've just ordered some opks. However I am convinced I am pg as I only feel how I do now when I'm pg.

BFN on frer again this morning. Will see what Friday brings.

sk1pper · 24/08/2016 07:37

Walk was good thanks girls. Though I'm ashamed to admit that we were too knackered afterwards to DTD. So that's the SMEP completely out the window now, as we've missed one day for cystitis and another for tiredness. Did an OPK this morning though and still negative even though it is normally my ovulation day so that makes me feel a bit better. Still time I hope.

cakesandphotos · 24/08/2016 09:20

BFN for me this morning. Still no sign of AF though. What's the superdrug test that's meant to be good? I want to test again on Saturday.

Purplefairy21 · 25/08/2016 08:25

cakes it's there own brand version of frer :) I've used them before when trying not to blow my bank account out with frer. He's 3 now Grin got a positive on them at 9/10 dpo with him. Im off to get some superdrug ones today as I'm convinced that my Amazon ic are faulty.

lousylear · 26/08/2016 07:16

Bfn on frer again this morning.
CD32, 9dpo.
No sign of AF

Purplefairy21 · 26/08/2016 08:27

Bfn here as well. Even cracked open the frer. Cd27 and no sign of the witch. Feeling a bit disheartened but just keep telling myself it's not over til the witch arrives. Going to try and hold off on testing til next week if af doesn't show her face in the mean time. Fed up of seeing newborn babies and pg posts on fb, Especially when it's by people who weren't even ttc.

danigrace · 26/08/2016 11:02

Hey girls,
Well the bleeding was definitely AF so I was rather disheartened to say the least bc it's the first time all my tests/symptoms confirmed ov sine I started trying in Oct. No period since March then when one arrived so did another 5dpo Confused
Had a total mental breakdown and ate a KFC and 5 mini donuts Blush then couldn't sleep til half 2 in the morning bc I was totally wired on all the additives and sugar my body isn't used to! And I then had a bad belly and felt generally icky for 3 days afterwards. But meltdown over & back to usual programming now! On CD10 and had ewcm yesterday so all looking good again. Going to hop over to the Sept bus but I'll pop back here too.

Congrats Gin & Niks!!

Glad you're feeling better Skipper your holiday sounds awesome!

Lulu298 · 26/08/2016 13:12

Ahh danni, I've definitely had a mental breakdown binge. Tbh, I think I have them daily!

Will be joining you on the Sept bus. AF arrived today on CD26. Roll on cycle 3 of ?

By the way, off topic, but am loving the Penetration Man thread - has cheered me up no end Grin

Lulu298 · 26/08/2016 13:13

Forgot to say, good luck to anyone yet to test! Fingers firmly crossed for you guys xx

sk1pper · 26/08/2016 16:07

Dani - good to hear from you, sorry to hear it was AF after all but you still must be excited about ov?

I'm at the airport now waiting to head home, ovulated yesterday and DTD yesterday and the day before. We're hoping to again tonight and tomorrow. I did have a cheeky beer yeseterdy, it it's another BFN I just know I'm going to place my blame on that.

cakesandphotos · 26/08/2016 17:04

AF just turned up - 6 days late the cow! At least I can start again next cycle! Good luck to everyone else! Hope I don't see you on the September bus!

danigrace · 26/08/2016 19:45

Lulu haha glad to hear I'm not alone!! See you on Sept bus (you too Cake!), I'm going to search for the thread you mentioned!

Skipper hope you enjoyed your hols, have a safe trip! Well done still managing to get your dtd in! Yes I'm still really pleased I ovulated, shows things are moving in the right direction

sugarplumfairy2010 · 26/08/2016 21:12

Hi af due on the 30th but pretty sure im already out this month as had heavy bleeding from day 18 to 21. I dont know what my bodys messing at since i had a mmc in june.x

Calmisthemantra · 27/08/2016 14:53

Just checking in. I'm due AF on 30th too. Did a test this morning - an expected bfn as I don't feel/think I am. We could only dtd 2 days before ovulation (presumed ov based on my cycle) This month I am going to use opk to try and pinpoint exactly when I ovulate rather than what the app tells me. Might make me stressed as there's no point in me ovulating if DH is 2hrs away Hmm

lousylear · 28/08/2016 07:21

Still no AF. Cd34, 11dpo. Still feel pregnant. Nausea getting worse. Backache worse. Nipples sensitive now as well as boobs. Cried on and off most of yesterday. Dp and I had our first argument. Scared of testing again as I don't want to see another bfn. Ovia says test tomorrow but I really don't want to. Tempted to leave it til at least Wednesday. Got 1 frer left unless I buy more. What would you do?

Alibaba2 · 28/08/2016 08:26

Hi Lousy, with my BFPs, I've always managed to wait until 14dpo before testing. When is AF due? In a few days?

I would try to hold out until Tuesday perhaps but that's just me. Good luck! I'm rooting for you Smile

lousylear · 28/08/2016 08:36

AF due tomorrow as Ovia has me ovulating 2 weeks ago tomorrow. I initially thought I'd ovulated 3 weeks ago so it's been a very long tww with lots of bfn. I'm going to test Wednesday I think.

Alibaba2 · 28/08/2016 12:03

Do you go by temps, opks or both for ov? Are you sure of your ov date?

Purplefairy21 · 28/08/2016 12:39

I'm out ladies, the sodding witch got me big style. Had a 29 day cycle this time. Maybe my boobs just felt like having a growth spurt Hmm Good luck to those still to test, hopefully I won't see you on the September bus. I'll still lurk here though.

sk1pper · 28/08/2016 12:55

Purple - that's rubbish :( yeah see you on September bus. I won't be testing till Sep anyway so should really be on that bus anyway lol

lousylear · 28/08/2016 13:10

Temps, cm, haven't tried opks yet but have got some ready to try if necessary.

lousylear · 29/08/2016 08:14

Well, caved in and tested again today. Dp is getting fed up with me saying I am when there's no proof. Bfn again on frer, although SMU not FMU. I still really feel pg. Feeling sick, boobs massive and veiny, temps still high, still lots of cm, hungry, thirsty, tired, backache, nymphomaniac! I'm going to test again Friday so moving to September bus. Currently cd35, 12dpo. No sign of AF.

lousylear · 29/08/2016 08:15

Pic of my latest bfn!
