I'm off the September Bus before it even leaves the station and thanks to my longer cycle I thought I'd start the October page.

TTC #1
Cycle #3
BFP due October 4th

@lgh05 & @CoffeeWithMyOxygen I think I ovulated on the 12th. I've been using internet cheapie tests because I can't not test.

Today is our first wedding anniversary and I keep imagining we get our BFP today but I think it's unlikely. Oh well, a girl can dream!

GotADolly · 22/10/2017 07:55

@felicityheather I’ve had clots last night, just once. Now back to light bleeding.

lgh05 · 22/10/2017 08:19

@felicityheather good luck! Let us know how you get on!

felicityheather · 22/10/2017 09:42

@lgh05 nothing today, but no Aunt Flo either.

@GotADolly glad it's settled down! X

lgh05 · 22/10/2017 09:45

@felicityheather happy anniversary by the way! When you test early are you not scared that if you get a BFP it could be a chemical. This is the only thing putting me off testing, but don't know enough about it!

felicityheather · 22/10/2017 09:54

Yeah, I am, but I've had so many issues getting to the point where I'm even ovulating, I think in a way I'd be glad to know I could get pregnant even if it didn't stick. I'm a bit of a data geek so the more I know, the calmer I feel.

lgh05 · 22/10/2017 09:59

@felicityheather yeah totally makes sense I am just weight up the pros and cons for knowing verses no knowing!

felicityheather · 22/10/2017 10:47

That makes lots of sense too! I know I'd be ridiculously upset if it happened. I just think I'd rather know a little more!

Mandala23 · 22/10/2017 11:24

@GotADolly I’ve heard spotting early on is fairly normal - maybe give 111 a ring for some advice?
I’m gonna do another test later on today I think - been having weird electric shock feelings behind my belly button and boobs are a little tender today which I never get even with af!

MyEternalSunshine · 22/10/2017 18:16

Well I'm out Cake AF showed yesterday but tbh I was expecting her as I never got a positive opk and we never dtd nearly enough in the first half of my cycle.. will catch the next bus ! Grin

Mandala23 · 22/10/2017 19:51

Done another test....nothing there. Ergh. Losing hope now.

felicityheather · 22/10/2017 21:14

Ok... just did another test as I would have been so excited to have our BFP on our anniversary. I promised I wouldn't do this but I'm gonna post a pic and see what you think. The dye isn't running back but I think I see two lines...???? Going insane. Hoping to put it out of my head and get some sleep but would love any thoughts people have?

felicityheather · 22/10/2017 21:38

Pictures won't post. 😔 I guess I'll just have to wait and repost tomorrow!!

Well that's typical lol!!

felicityheather · 22/10/2017 21:42

I'm not sure @Mandala23 ... can you send a more zoomed in photo?

Flatwhite31 · 22/10/2017 22:18

Unfortunately I can't see because the dye has gone across the strip @felicityheather. Fingers crossed for you! X

Mandala23 · 22/10/2017 22:33

@felicityheather this is as good as I could do! When do you reckon I should test again? Boobs def more sore now and been having weird pelvic twinges.

felicityheather · 22/10/2017 23:16

Hmmm I'm not sure @Mandala23. Maybe try to wait a couple of days?

felicityheather · 23/10/2017 05:43

Hmm I'm not seeing anything this morning.

CoffeeWithMyOxygen · 23/10/2017 17:04

I think I’m out this month. I’m not due until Thursday but starting to get warning cramps so unless it’s some weird pregnancy symptom (so hard to give up hope!) I think AF is on her way.

felicityheather · 23/10/2017 17:29

I've been cramping today too @CoffeeWithMyOxygen. Think I may find a visit from AF tomorrow. Still pretending I might be pregnant lol.

CoffeeWithMyOxygen · 23/10/2017 17:42

Sucks doesn’t it,felicity? Just told DH who bought me chocolate and held my hand while I ate it!

lgh05 · 23/10/2017 18:13

I thought a bit of cramping wasn't necessarily a bad thing as it could be implantation?

Mandala23 · 23/10/2017 19:06

@felicityheather @CoffeeWithMyOxygen cramping can be an early pregnancy sign, just putting it out there! How annoying is it that early pregnancy and af have the same symptoms.. 😒

CoffeeWithMyOxygen · 23/10/2017 20:00

Oh really? I just assumed it was AF as I’m due fairly soon. Think I’m 11dpo today. Told myself I won’t test before Saturday if AF hasn’t arrived yet.
