January Bus - New Year, New Bumps Please!

[Owlpatrol]

Hi all

Thought I'd start January bus as spotting has started today

Here's my stats

Age 29
Ttc #1
Cycle 13
Currently cd28 at due next couple of days
Next af/bfp due 4th January

Planning to do the sperm meets egg plan this month. Looking forward to af finishing already!

Happy new year guys hoping for lots of bfp's for us all in 2018. Congratulations to those who have one already! X

Happy New Year ladies - wishing everyone a year of happiness and good luck with ttc! Hoping for lots of bfps!

My bbt chart is looking so strange. I’m 6dpo according to Glow. I had a slight rise after my +opks and expected it to go higher but yesterday and today (5-6dpo) I’ve had temps go lower. Normally by this point I’d have temps up in the 36.7-8 range but nothing like that yet... really hoping it’s implantation and not an anovulatory cycle or anything..

Ps. Huge congrats to @LostMyBaubles and @Gudgy

@FruitandNutty don't they say that a cycle that looks different could be a pg one? This cycle is the first that I've temped so I'm still getting to grips with it

Argh did another with fmu and it’s not even a squinter.

Will do a pink dye test in a few days if af hasn’t come

Congratulations on the BFPs! I hope there are lots more to come.

AF arrived in the night, boo. On to the next cycle.

How many dpo are you @Gudgyx? I'm 10dpo and caved and did an IC. BFN. Tempted to go by FRER but my rational mind is telling me to wait a few more days! Haha

Im out! Af arrived as expected. Feeling so down and depressed about it we timed it perfectly this month and attempted the smep. Not really ready for 2018 yet or going back to work either. Onto cycle 14 and never ever thought I'd be here taking some time out today and may take some time out from mn. Also got baby bombed this morning by my cousin she's announced after a few weeks due August. Sorry to be a Debbie downer....

Sending loads of baby dust to you all! I will be back but I just need time xx

@Owlpatrol 😞 - thinking of you x

17 I think twiglet! I’m only using Flo and Ovia though so could be out a few days

Happy new year everyone! Can I join? This is my first official month of trying after a few years of no periods post pill - now seem to be sorting themselves out (was very excited to have a 30 day cycle last month). I feel like I finally have a bus ticket after years of watching them zoom by

My ovulation days seem to be a bit all over the place (somewhere between cd17 and 24) but hoping that’s working itself out too. Currently on cd16 so no time to lose!

Wishing for 2018 babies for everyone

Welcome @ronniemipperton! Sending baby dust to you. Are you planning on using OPKs or anything like that at all? Can be helpful if your cycles are just starting to settle down?

Noooo noooo to clear blues ... I gt three false positives on them ... can't stand them .. I even rang them ... jus my opinion lol ....

Hi Ronnie... wow a few years of no periods!! Hope this is ur year xx

Hoping baubles is ok 👌🏼

Thanks bubblybrit! I am using OPKs plus temping, though temping has gone a bit haywire over the Christmas period due to definitely not waking up at the same time every day plus a lot of drinking/fending off a cold which I think has been playing havoc with my bbt. Using Clearblue OPKs at the mo (though might have to rethink that as they’re not cheap) and got my first high today so fingers crossed for a peak in the next few days.

I'm 10dpo & wont be home to test until tomorrow. Got a bfp on my 1st pregnancy (ended in mc) at 12dpo in Sept so I'm going to try not to poas until Wednesday but it's so tempting to poas tomorrow morning! I hate the tww...

So sorry @owlpatrol , so gutted for you i was hoping this would be your month you deserve it so much really hope it happens for you soon

Oh I'm so sorry owl I checked in this morning as well to see if you'd updated! You deserve it so much I really hope it happens for you soon! I really think taking time off helps, I got so caught up in it all the last 6 months and think it stressed me out way too much. I really believe being relaxed and off here, not temping and not doing opks was what did it for us this month! Sending you all the baby dust in the world for next month

@Fia256 @HoneyCake86 thanks ladies that means a lot. At least I've got a week of af to think about what I want to do this month xx

Sorry @OwlPatrol - take the time you need. I do feel like the whole ttc thing can be so all consuming. I’m determined this month not to poas until after AF due. I’m so over getting bfns and wasting money on them!

@sophherts yes I’ve read that too, but trying not to get hopes up. I did just have loads of ewcm too just now, not sure what that was about! I’ve been eating pineapple core and taking an every other day B Vit since O so maybe that.. who knows! Well done for resisting urge to test! Totally believe not worth the extra stress of bfn.

Sorry to hear @owlpatrol. Hope it happens for you very soon x

@FruitandNutty what b vitamins are you taking? I have been looking into b vitamins but not sure which ones to take, either a complex or just b12

Horrid start @Owlpatrol hope 2018 brings you better things in time

Thanks girls all your support really means the world. I've dived into cleaning up Xmas decorations haha! Tomorrow morning when the boss is nagging will be a whole another day! Xx
