June Bus - hoping for that elusive BFP

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!!!

Oh Grumpy, I'm sorry Flowers

CinnamonSwirlGirl85 · 19/05/2017 18:35

I'm so sorry Grumpy. How horrible for you. I hope you are starting to recover physically (I'm sure it will take an awful lot longer emotionally) Flowers x

TheGrumpySquirrel · 19/05/2017 18:43

Thank you. Sometimes I'm ok and then sometimes it just feels so raw and cruel that I was getting so excited about our baby who isn't going to be here at Christmas after all. I feel desperate to be pregnant again despite the fear of this happening again. I'm hoping it was just random; I have a healthy DD who is 12 now and never had any issues with that pregnancy or any gynae issues since. Fingers crossed for a June rainbow BFP.

I'm so sorry Grumpy

MotherofBoy · 19/05/2017 19:52

Officially CD1! Haven't caught up on thread from today yet... af in full flow. Have cramps etc but actually not quite as bad as last month. Yet. Curled up in bed at the moment and catching early night! Annoyingly though it means I will ovulate when mil is here again on a Thursday. Hmph.

BlueeSpottyTiger · 19/05/2017 20:15

So so sorry grumpy Flowers hugs x

CinnamonSwirlGirl85 · 19/05/2017 20:50

I'm sorry Grumpy, it really is beyond shit. I know you'll never forget your December baby, but I hope you fall pregnant soon so that it gives you something positive to focus on. Oh, and lots and lots of hugs with DD!

Waiting for AF here. I thought it would arrive today but looks like it'll now be tomorrow or even the day after. Wish it would just bloody hurry up!

BlueeSpottyTiger · 19/05/2017 21:40

So af ended on cd 5 as usual and im surprised i really thought it would have lasted longer after my cp.. so i hope that i ovulate on my usual day again! We followed the sperm meets egg plan last cycle when i got my bfp. So we have started dtd on cd5 and will be doing it every otherday until postive opk. Then we will do it every day for 3 days straight then miss a day and then one more time for luck (don't quite understand that part of it 🤔)
We are also using conceive plus Lube again.. its fab!
Whats everyone else's plans??

MotherofBoy · 19/05/2017 21:41

Just managed to read back now. Oh grumpy that really is so so cruel. I really can't imagine but I hope that you can make peace with it in years to come. Look after yourself, grief is tough to deal with. I hope you have lots of support. Christmas will be difficult I'm sure as you won't ever forget the due date and what might have been but I hope that you will have your rainbow baby soon 🌈

MotherofBoy · 19/05/2017 21:44

What is the sperm meets egg plan blue? We will be dtd some time between cd11-15. Hoping on o day but as that will likely coincide with mil being here... I'm going to have to try hard to get dh in the mood as we didn't dtd last two months when she was here which was either o day or day before so need to break the barrier!! Only annoying thing about regular cycles I always o on a bleeding Thursday!

TheGrumpySquirrel · 19/05/2017 21:55

Thank you all for your kind words. EDD wasn't Christmas but 10 Dec. I was so looking forward to a cosy Christmas at home with my baby. And wine! Letting go of that dream now. Going to frame the scan photo and I won't forget this baby but I feel optimistic about the future. It does put my other worries about pregnancy - like the impact on work, and not being able to do hot yoga for 12 weeks, into perspective. I am focusing on one step at a time - bleeding ending, prep test turning negative, then I can OPK. It is mind boggling to think that if I get pregnant again soon I'll basically have been pregnant for a year almost solid by the time baby is born.. weird.

TheGrumpySquirrel · 19/05/2017 21:55

That should say "preg test"

BlueeSpottyTiger · 19/05/2017 22:19

Goodluck grumpy life is so cruel sometimes Sad i hope you get your little rainbow x
mother it's basically what i explained there but here's a link.. spermmeetseggplan.com/smep-step-by-step/
Is your mil there every Thursday? I don't know how you cope haha.. I've not seen mine for 4 months 😅 x

MotherofBoy · 20/05/2017 06:24

Thanks blue, yes she comes every Thursday night as she looks after DS on Fridays. She does save us £200/month in nursery fees so can't complain too much!

Sunshinesaz86 · 20/05/2017 13:08

Sorry for your loss grumpy I know how it feels MMC in Feb found out at 12 week scan! I hope you recover physically soon and feel better emotionally in your own time.

mother that must be so frustrating having MIL in the house, can u not try to be super quiet?

cinnamon are u definitely out of AF is late or does your cycle vary?

So I had my first smiley yesterday and positive opk and again today so DTD twice yesterday and will again tonight. Do u think I'll ov tonight or tomorrow I'm now CD15 of a 28 day I felt a bit of twinging on my left side last night? But surge still showing today? X x

Hi everyone. Hope you're all having a lovely weekend. I'm now into the 2ww, today is CD19. I think I ovulated on CD15, dtd every other day from CD12 to CD16. Already looking for twinges! AF due on 1st June. Good luck to everyone else waiting. Xx

ScarletSienna · 21/05/2017 09:14

AF arrived today at which means my last cycle was 31 days. The previous one was 45!

Not a clue what is going on but CD1 again.

TheGrumpySquirrel · 21/05/2017 09:28

@ScarletSienna sorry wrong thread! I'm also on the TTC post MC one. Really sorry

MotherofBoy · 21/05/2017 10:49

Morning all! Nothing exciting going on over here. CD3, af lightening a bit. Starting to plan when I should aim to dtd this month. So last month we only dtd every other day in fertile week and missed the day before o but did do it on o. Month before that I tried to dtd every day in fw but by o day dh was knackered and didn't want to do think we peaked too early! I get so impatient though as soon as cd10 arrives I want to get on it. Wonder whether I hold out til CD12 so that dh has the stamina to keep up iyswim 😂 Dh hates planning it though so am going to have to keep quiet about dates!

Fx for us all, more bfps in June please! Cycle 4 and already getting impatient...

daiiawn · 21/05/2017 13:35

Hi there, first time posting on a forum. Been lurking before now, reading all the posts, getting excited about the bfp's and so sad for the mc's.
Hoping I can join in the chat, my stats are:

Ttc #2

Hope I've got the right acronyms.
