January/Feb bus

[LowanBehold]

Thought I'd start a new bus if that's okay as the Jan bus is getting quite full and I'm out of the loop.

I'll start with me

28
cycle 7
CD 14
Peak today on CBFM so should Ov tomorrow:-)
AF due 16/1

I have to say I'm fed up of this- we're using CBFM, softcups and preseed.

I don't know about anyone but me and DP are thoroughly fed up of having sex right now!! Although we're keeping it fun- to a degree. I wouldn't say we're dtd nearly enough this FW!

@LookingAtTheStars89. Ah that’s rubbish. Nothing worse than getting your hopes up and then AF shows up! 😡 I only decided to test today as feeling a bit off but that could be due to other things I guess. Hope you get a definitive positive on your opk soon.

Sorry mrs028 fingers crossed for next cycle.

Bubbly I don't see any line but I hope I'm wrong. I never even heard of an indent line. I think fr lines are not squints when they appear at all they are usually very obvious. got a bfp on them when I had my chemical pregnancy. Then got bfp on clear blue weeks indicator and then it never moved on and went back to not pregnant. The joys of a serial tester.

I have loads of symptoms I need to calm the hell down. I don't even know what cycle day I'm on. Am i supposed to count from withdrawal bleed even if I stopped the pill mid pack?! Or is that only I'd you finish the pack. Either way I can't test for another few weeks but sure being the addict I am will start as soon as my ebay order gets delivered next week. oh well at least they are cheapies.

The scan is a good idea as a general check over. Never heard of them either. What rock am I under. How does the fertility monitor work is it saliva? Do u have to do it straight away before getting up because I would forget every time

Just had a bit of brown creamy cm at 13dpo so looks like af is about to appear (the bitch). Fx for everyone still in the tww or wherever you are in your cycle!

@sophherts. That sucks :-( I have started getting that before flo ever since my mmc. Before that it just used to be like BAM and Flo was there. Weird.

Flo reckons I'm due to ovulate tomorrow and Glow reckons Saturday and Ovia says Monday lol ha ha. I am guessing if no + lol then I'm out for tomorrow ovulation?

@LookingAtTheStars89 same! I never used to spot!

Awe sorry to hear that sophherts I was the same last time always knew two days before af that i was out. I think I read it was something to do with progesterone but I could be wrong. I probably always had it but when not ttc I wasn't in the habit of looking at tissue after every wipe. Be kind to yourself.

Hello again!
Hopping over from the full bus!
10/11 dpo today so did a frer and think I got my BFP! It's very faint but there! I feel all kinds of anxious and excited!
Baby dust all around!

Congrats Pixiedust25! That’s a line for sure. I’m 10 dpo today but no line as of yet! X

@Pixiedust25. That isn't faint! Congratulations!!

@sophherts. It's weird how it changes your cycle. The first cycle after I had terrible pms too but that seems to have settled back down.

Ah so sorry soph :(

Just checking in ladies. Not sure exactly when I ovulated but have sore breasts which apparently means that I have ovulated. AF due 13/14th. Must have dtd at least once a day over fw (joys of being off for Xmas). This is cycle 6 so am really considering some private fertility tests next cycle. TTC is starting to really get to me.

Think I must have lines eyes mixed with a little wishful thinking @twobambinos. I’m so sorry to hear about your cp. Hope you are ok and that you get your BFP soon!

I’m not sure if this is the correct answer but I started counting from my withdrawal bleed when I came off the pill mid pack. Didn’t think that cycle was very reliable though so focussed my attention on tracking cycles from period following withdrawal bleed. For me it’s been 36,36 and then 30 last cycle. Looks like this may be a longer cycle for me as AF due date is passed (with no BFP) if it was based on a 30 day cycle. Hence trying not to poas again until Sunday as this is when AF due based upon 36 day cycle!

Have never used fertility monitor so can’t comment but I’m sure the other lovely ladies on this thread can give a little guidance

@sophherts. So sorry to hear that flo seems to be on her way it’s so unfair....who knew that this journey would be so stressful x

@pixiedust25. Definitely not faint. That’s a strong positive to me 😀 congratulations!!

Oh my cp was a while ago but thank you have since had a wonderful dd
I just don't know if it's right to count drom withdrawal bleed as not covered for the few days in between unless you take the full pack. But anyway it's not likely to happen straight away so we prob won't have the dating problem. I'll have a clearer picture when I get my period i suppose.probably not for another while.

Pixie dust congrats thats def not faint.

Biscay hopefully this is your cycle.

Thank you so much everyone! Still struggling to believe it’s real!

Yeah I’m not convinced of anything being accurate that is associated with the withdrawal bleed tbh! My period returned the following month. It’s just the cycles that are a little irregular right now. Although 30-36 days isn’t too bad compared with some.

What age is your DD?

Wow, not faint at all pixie! Congratulations!

@bubblybrit @HoneyCake86 thanks lovelies. Fx for you both this cycle! Xx

Congrats @pixie definitely a solid bfp! Did you have any symptoms? x

Is anyone here doing the SMEP? We thought we would give it a try this month, I am not sure though whether the timed sex (BD every other day then 3 in a row) is going to be an issue. Knowing it should be certain days rather than just lots in fertile week may make things a bit stressful. Would love to hear experiences.

@FruitandNutty I’ve had quite a lot. Achey boobs which I never usually get, tired, feeling sick a lot of the day, had really strong af like cramps at the weekend and my body was achey all over! I wasn’t sure if it was just AF.

@anxiouswaiting me! 🙋🏻‍♀️ up the wall with my ovulation as I had my darkest line on Tuesday at 6pm and now has a similar line has appeared today at 4! Going to wait until 7pm to try again. I only got the clear blue ones yesterday so waiting on a smiley face

Totally get the BD every other day. I am exhausted by it.

How are you finding the plan x

Congratulations @Pixiedust25

I've been super hungry today and I have a sore throat. A sore throat was the way I knew I was pregnant last time (odd symptom I know)
