September bfp bus

[Mimilicious013]

Here is hoping for big fat positives all round

Welcome sairdy :)

Lalaland - will be evaporation yes, you are meant to discount anything after 5 mins normally (dependant on brand). Have you got some more tests to use tomorrow?

I do skipper! Not due to test till Wednesday according to ovia though! I'm on CD 31 though!!

Thanks, we dtd yesterday anyway, just in case 😋 But I still have more OPKs so think I'll test again tomorrow. I have been doing one in the morning and one in the afternoon so not to miss it, I didn't use OPKs with my first pregnancy, we just wanted to wait and see, but this time round there's a small window to get pregnant due to work commitments so we're coming at it a bit more organised!!

Hi can I join the September bfp bus.
I'm Cara ttc #4, but my partners 2nd and our first together. AF due but hopefully won't arrive September 9th

I see it McBaby!!!

I'm 9 days post positive OPK so maybe 7 or 8 days past ovulation? Who knows.

Ovia says I can test I'm Saturday and I have no desire or urge to test early as I don't feel any different at all, no symptoms, nothing.

Defiantly a second line today! (Very excited and petrified after a mc in July at 10 weeks but hoping this one sticks)!

Here is hoping the September bus I hope it's a lucky one for everyone!

Definitely a line there McBaby!! Congrats!!

Welcome cara!

Mcbaby - this is wonderful, no mistaking that test! Congratulations xx

Writer - I'm about 4 DPO and feel absolutely nothing too. Possibly the most boring 2ww yet..

McBabydefinite line congratulations!
I am cd 23 and have no symptoms either, so my positive thoughts this month have all gone!

Hi Cara - I'm same as you, ttc #4. #1 with new partner too and his first. I think he's more excited than me at the prospect. I'm 41 though so just hoping I can still get pg.
I'm on cycle #1, cd36, 13dpo. No sign of AF and loads of pg symptoms. However keep getting bfn on frer so not testing again now til Friday.
FX for us all.

Congrats mcbaby, hoping it's me next!

Congrats McBaby!

I'm also on CD 23, felt slight symptoms this morning (more gas! and slight sensitivity in boobs) but trying not to think about it too much in case I'm wrong!

It's def darker today - congratulations McBaby!!

Congratulations mcbaby i ordered a bbt thermometer yesterday to see if it would help pinpoint ovulation a bit better. Any tips/ suggestions as never used one before.

Purplefairy21 - I'd say take temps vaginally. I spent 2-3 months taking my temp orally and it did show a 2 phase graph in general but it was all over the place. Now I'm in my 3rd month of taking temps vaginally and it is much easier to see the trend.
Try to do the same time each day as soon as you wake up.
Ovulation has already happened when the temp rise shows so it doesn't help planning sex - OPKs are better for that but I haven't got a positive one of those in 3months of using but I'm lucky my cycles seem pretty uniform.
Obviously record on an app. I use Ovia but it only shows about a week on screen at one time so for a wider view I also use mycalender (but for almost anything else that app is pants).
Also the beeping is really annoying!
Good luck!

Purple fairy - I take temps orally abs have very broken sleep due to insomnia and 2 children but I can spot a pattern of low and high temps. (I also tracked my temps before I was ttc as I had pcos).

Ovulation sticks didn't really help me as I got my positive this month on the day I ovulated as I had my temp rise the day after!

Learning my other ovulation signs like ewcm and ovulation pain combined with temping helped me work my cycle out.

Huge congrats McBaby!

I'm 6dpo and have been feeling light cramping on and off the side I ovulated for the last couple of days. Probably just leftover ovulation pain but it's not something I've noticed before. Planning to test on Saturday but not too hopeful.

Does anyone else see the second line? Is it an evap?

Sorry cara - I don't see it

What I see is here

Congrats mcbaby!

So I'm on CD17 - 7ish dpo (I don't temp or use OPKs...yet!) and AF due a week tomorrow. We DTD every other day during and either side of FW so hoping in with a good chance this month.

No real symptoms of note yet other than being even more clumsy than usual (not even sure if this is a real symptom but Dr Google seems to confirm it!) and I've got quite a painful lower back (which of course is a pg symptom rather than the result of decorating at the weekend! 🤔)

Cara I defiantly see something. Test again tomorrow and hopefully it will be darker or go for an first response In the morning. How long after ovulation are you?

Congrats McBaby! Exciting that we have first BFP before Sept even begins. I'm CD14 no on OPK yet. DTD every day this week and fingers crossed that will be enough.

I didn't do opks but based off an app I downloaded I'm only 4dpo which is why I think it must be an evap or maybe ovulated early?

Joining from the August bus as AF arrived today, as expected as didn't 'feel' pregnant.
Cycle #2 for dc#3
Age 34

All made slightly harder as my DH works away mon-Friday and I'm ovulating mid week at the minute

Finally a possible symptom to scrutinise. Extreme tiredness (obviously not because I've gone back to work after 10 days off). Also had a bout of light headidness just now to the point I had to sit down but not sure that's a symptom, probably the heat.
