June Bus - hoping for that elusive BFP

[bassetmum]

Hi all,
Thought I'd start the June bus as af arrived this morning. Biggest kick in the teeth as my sister baby bombed me on her first cycle this weekend and I am now on cycle 10. Trying for our first too.

Hopefully this will be our months!!!

Hi ladies

Sorry to see some names over from the May bus

June is a good month to ttc as we could all end up with a little valentines bundle, right? ❤️

I'm still waiting for af here. Around 13dpo today and had Bfns so far so just waiting for the witch to show! Be tomorrow or Saturday I'm guessing!

Hope all are well? X

sunshine sorry to hear your ds is poorly for you and for ds!

Hello, can I jump on the June bus too? Just coming to the end of AF, cd erm 6 I think! Vital statistics:
TTC #2
age 32
cycle 3

Hoping for BFP this cycle as things start to get a bit tricky for me work-wise and maternity leave-wise if due dates get any later into next year!

Anyone else really impatient to get into their fertile window?? I'm looking at my app like 20 times a day as if my fertile days are going to magically jump forward lol. I'm going to be such a pain in the 2ww if I'm like this already

Sorry for all the BFN's Ava. What tests are you using?

Yes lil ! I just want to get it over with!

Just trying to focus on what I can do differently this month if anything...

Think I need a serious chat with partner who wants another baby too, but is working really long days with lots of stress, he's often too tired to dtd so I feel it's under duress and he must feel under pressure!

Last time we only had 3 viable attempts in fertile window (would've been more but 3 yr old kept waking and coming in, which he never normally does so he must have sensed something :) Other months has been 3/5 times but it's clearly not enough for us! How does everyone else get on?!?!?! X

Im jumping on this bus too if that's okay!
Sorry to see so many familiar faces from the May bus, but fx for all the baby dust in June! And let's make them sticky!

Ttc #1
Cycle 2
CD 7
Endometriosis and adenomyosis

I'm also checking my Flo app almost hourly to check when my fw starts! I don't know what I'm expecting!
I'm genuinely spotting babies and bumps everywhere! It's driving me potty!

Good luck everyone!

Qin actually now booked in for a Smear right in the middle of my FW do you recon she will be able to tell me if I'm ovulating?? Wishful thinking lol

Thanks lil and yep my app is saying fw is 20!! days away! Sooo long! And I've been testing home bargain tests ha ha X

impatient, we have struggled but now it's been taking so long we both prioritise it. This month we did it every two days from end of AF to getting a positive opk then every day for 3 days.
But we are starting to get desperate so literally can't leave it to chance!

Hi boatrace that's pretty much my plan for this month, need to feel we are doing everything possible !! Every other day, then every day around OV... we won't be able to walk after that! Tried lots of supplements last month but apart from making OV early I'm sure they did nothing so it's back to basics ... good luck! Have you long to wait to FW? x

Yep, I'm CD1, the earliest I've ever ovulated (since tracing is CD21 so a 3 week wait

We usually start dtd every other day from cd 8/9 though so it's hard work!

I should apparently ovulate next Friday. 8 days to go. Can time just fast forward please??

I was thinking of buying some eBay cheapies for testing, don't really want to spend a fortune on them yet because it's probably going to take a while. Doesn't really matter right?

I've found cheapies to be reliable, I cross reference with cervical mucus and temping

Morning ladies

As predicted af got me this morn at 14dpo! So cd1 for me today

Got a better feeling about June and hopefully dh will be here during fw this time. Will keep popping in to see how your all doing but I have a looonnngg wait fw now (19 days) so not much to update on for a while!

Much love ladies X

CD5 here now and this has been the most obnoxiously heavy AF in ages, I would have been hoping to put the Mooncup away by now...

We'll see how the next few weeks go - FW coincides with our wedding anniversary :)

Here I am as AF is full flow this morning! Gutted to not have my honeymoon baby but onwards and upwards.

Age 31

Cycle #7
TTC #1

I'll be doing home insemination with donor sperm for any one I haven't met on this thread yet so need to pin ovulation down perfectly haha.

Back on the bus here too...

Cycle 5 ttc 4th child, never taken more than three cycles before for one ectopic, three babies and three miscarriages so a little bit freaked out and convinced I am now ancient and barren!

Cycle day two today. Definitely a wine day 🍷

Sunshine hey yeah i think that could be a good idea getting some cheap ones until I have a rough idea whats happening cycle wise! I think because CB are so expensive its the main reason i havent got them out their box yet.

Hope everyone is doing good! think the majority of us are waiting on our fertile window ( who knows when that will be for me haha!) im working over the weekend so ill catch up on how everyone is doing on Tuesday :) good luck ladies!

How's everyone on the June bus getting on??

CD10 here opks are starting to get a little darker so expect ov in the next 2-4days AF varies between 26-28! Ovia says fertile period starts Wednesday!
DTD last night and will do every other day until +opk then every day for 2/3 days I think!

Waiting for fertile period is a drag,.....not quite as bad as the tww tho!

What's going on with everyone else? X x

CD8 here. Will start OPKs in a few days but not expecting anything until early next week (CD16-18 ish).

BD'd twice over the weekend when the non-sleeping child finally napped!

Just jumping over from the May thread and marking my place. I did a test on Saturday morning that was a BFN and although my cycle is irregular I know I'm not pregnant this month. A bit of cramping and spotting today so I really hope AF is on its way so I can just get it over with and we can start trying with gusto again this month! OPK ready and waiting! Stats to (re)introduce myself:

Age 34
CD ?!?
Cycle #2
TTC #3

sunshine I quite like the first 2 weeks before the fww as there's no symptom spotting. I can drink with no inch of guilt and eat whatever I like without thinking oh maybe I should be healthier and in general just thinking less about ttc when that tww arrives it all feels full of hope and then disappointment

I've been thinking this weekend whether to have a ttc break as it feels so gruelling.im not sure if I will but thinking about it for sure.

Not sure if the two week wait between AF and ovulation is worse than the tww between ovulation and AF!?!

Twiddling thumbs waiting to get started and worrying/hoping we get in as many tries as possible... Last month everything seemed to be conspiring against us to interrupt and sabotage!

Only on day 6 so going to start dtd every-other-day until I get some smiley faces on the opk. But If anyone knows of a better strategy let me know 😬Xx

CD 4 here and trying to work out what day to have the donor visit. I ovulated on day 12 last month and day 15 the before.
