October Bus - More treats than tricks please!

[HolyShmoly]

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

AF due tomorrow, nothing happening yet. I'm still getting some symptoms that I'd love to think are pregnancy related (slight nausea early morning, mood swings, discharge) but they could all also be signs of impending-AF so I'm not testing before Saturday. I did notice my discharge was a bit different today though, some thicker and creamier bits amongst all the 'wet'. Any thoughts on that one?

I'm on CD21 of whatever my cycle is! I can't even say for sure I have ovulated yet. 13 days before my first period I had the most horrendous pain in my left side so I assume that was it but I haven't had that since my last period. Tonight though I feel so exhausted I actally dozed off. And I have even more pinchy pains and what felt like period pain for a few minutes. The only thing I have noticed is that I appear to have zero CM now. And I've been wearing black underwear to check!! Lol.

@CoffeeWithMyOxygen how come you are waiting till sat if AF due tomorrow? My AF due on Friday so was going to test Friday so I need to leave it later?

Honestly - it's because I want to hold onto the hope a little longer!

🙏🏼 xx

Cracked and tested just now on a FRER. BFN

@CoffeeWithMyOxygen it's okay it doesn't mean anything yet, it might not have been a concentrated enough sample, hormones may be slightly under etc... it's funny as today I haven't tested and I feel like I have a bit of freedom in my mind. Just wait till you Miss AF or the day after. Every bodies body is different.

Thanks lg - I'd love to think it was a false negative but we'll see. If AF hasn't arrived by Sunday I'll test again with FMU but in all probability I'm out this month. DH has been lovely though, he lit all my scented candles to make the living room nice for me as he wanted to cheer me up!

@coffeewithmyoxygen it's not over until AF arrives!!!

I'm still getting pains in my sides and today right at the bottom of my tummy. I wonder if this is all normal stuff that was just covered up by the pill?

So I'm now 15 dpo, temp still raised, another BFN. My period is three days late according to last cycle which had a 12 day luteal cycle (haven't ovulated before that since January...)

Going crazy!!!

I’m out, AF arrived with a vengeance this morning. On to November.

Sorry to hear that @CoffeeWithMyOxygen
@Felicityheather have you tested again? Af was due yesterday has been bang on 30 day cycles for the last 3 cycles so I was getting my hopes up when the bitch didn't arrive yesterday but tested this am and bfn been getting af like cramps for the last few days so think I'm just going to be a bit late. Wish she would just come if she's coming and stop giving me false hope! Was thinking that was my cycles settled now since coming off the pill in March but obviously not

@Merrz I tested again this morning and got another BFN.

@CoffeeWithMyOxygen I hope you have a bit of a mental rest during AF visit and keep focused for November xx

@lg05

@Felicityheather have your cycles been quite regular even when you weren't ovulating? It's so frustrating not knowing what's going on isn't it.
I can't help getting my hopes up but trying not to because in the back of my mind I'm convinced af is going to show any time.

No. My cycles are all over the show. They have been settling down since I've been taking some herbal supplements but I still don't know my 'normal'!
