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!!!

I think I may be ovulating now! Not 100% sure though I'm new to all this lol

laurajonesy me too, it's all very confusing!

Laura are you doing any type of monitoring?
Like opks?.. cervical mucas?.. bbt?

Xx

Does anyone else use an app like Clue to track their cycle? If so how accurate is it to mark ovulation?

Bluespottytiger just going on cervical mucus! It's very jelly like today and I'm wanting to dtd every two minutes lol

Anban I haven't used an app but downloaded a calendar from the mother and baby website which shows predicted fertile days and it seems to be pretty accurate.

I'm more confused because I have a 32 day cycle so that would make my luteal phase 21 days which seems too long?? Regardless we dtd tonight and will do every other day for the best 10 days just to be safe

Morning ladies! Officially taking my seat now as had big temp drop to cover line this morning at 13dpo and af cramps have started. Bfps last few days. Expecting af tomorrow. Hurry up cd1! Dreading af though, it was horrendous last month...

Sorry that should say bfns last few days!!!

Sorry to see you here Mother Know what you mean about dreading AF. Mine are awful now after mc last year. I'm on my 4th cycle after all the mc drama and its nothing like it used to be. Really heavy and crampy first 2 days, have to use pad as well as tampax. Hate it Never used to be like this.
Good luck!

Agree DT mine last month really was the worst. My pelvic floor is so ruined after DS1 that I had such a heavy aches f welding in my cervix plus really bad cramps it was so uncomfortable to even stand up on cd1 and cd2, luckily it was a weekend so I stayed in bed. But af due tomorrow I think which means I will have to go to work! 😩 Hope it's over quickly for you

Morning everyone, hope everyone's gearing up for lots of dtd! Sending the toddler to my mums this weekend and hoping it coincides with OV so we can be uninterrupted for a change!

Ladies who are using clearblue dual hormone OV a question please?!?! -

How many days do you tend to get a flashy smiley before a solid smiley? I've had 3 days, 5, 6... last month was only one (?!) and then I went straight to peak so I was gutted and felt I'd missed lots of opportunities to dtd leading up to OV! Also was worried something was wrong either with the tests or me...

My cycles have been 28-30 days max in that time so they're not irregular really. Be interested if anyone else had same with clear blue

Good luck as always everyone
xx

Im so confused i can only actually write on the app and not on the website..and the app is strange on my phone. so ill try figure it out and chat asap.. for those who have joined from may bus sorry to see you here xx
Hope everyone is well!?

Mind if I pull up a chair, was eagerly awaiting the May train however AF called in and I missed it!

Hi all who have just joined and sorry to those who have come over from the May bus. Let's hope June is your month!

Hi impatient I'm not using those ones so no advice sorry, just the normal cb and IC alongside. Must be very annoying can u perhaps dtd every other day in fertile window and both days after you get peak?

laura I'm no expert but that does sound quite long for LP? But covering all bases soinds like a good plan.

I've just had a very dark IC opk and my first smily on a CB (first time doing this month) CD14 so looks like ov is imminent! Will hopefully DTD today/tonight and tomorrow and try Sunday just to cover. Have done it a couple of times already in last few days also. Soo hoping it all goes to plan x x

Hello all, I have been a lurker for a while but now feel like joining. Feeling a bit low today as had such a good feeling this month but spotting, cramps and general rubbish feeling today suggest that AF definitely on the way (due Monday).

Good luck everyone!

Am I right in saying that it's 4-5 days after implantation that you can test? I don't want to get my hopes up!

Hi everyone

Thanks sunshine yes that's pretty much the plan, every other at least and then at least once a day as it gets closer to OV. It was just last month ovulation seemed to come early and so we missed dtd the day before which may have been the best time! Not taking any chances this time and testing morning and afternoon to catch lh surge as soon as it comes as well as dtd more! 😬

Sounds like you're doing the same so good luck! X

Hi issy2165, I found this to be a really useful site when working out when to test. www.countdowntopregnancy.com/tools/pregnancy_test_calculator.php

Great thank you!!

Oh doesn't want to fully commit to ttc until October after our holiday! He said obviously if it happens before then great though so I'm going to stay on the June bus and just gather information for now I think! I'm just very aware of the ticking clock, I'm 29 so not over the hill but not really young so I'm panicking a bit

Hello!

Age 35

CD 30 (of 45)
Cycle 2 (of properly trying)

I'm breast feeding our 2 year old which seems to be causing erratic and long cycles. I got pregnant in the first cycle last time after having implant removed so trying to track everything feels daunting.

I just got sent this link http://www.countdowntopregnancy.com/tools/pregnancytestt_calculator.php#results great way to test!

Tentatively hoping I'll ovulate before the end of June. Currently recovering from a MMC, probably got another two weeks of bleeding before I can start OPK-ing. A mid June conception date would be perfect timing for my work and mat leave plans, although I'll just be grateful if I can get pregnant again.

Oh my stats:
Age 31
TTC #2 (& my DD1 is 12yrs old..!)
Cycle 1 after MMC at 10 weeks 😢
