May Bus

I know a few people will unfortunately be joining me eventually so I figured I'd get this bus going.
My cycles are crazy and averaging 60 days and I don't think I've ovulated yet so I'm out for April.

Age: 27
TTC: #1
Cycle: #4 (month 8)
CD: #25

Not holding much hope for conception at the moment but I've got to wait until August anyway.
Such an optimistic person to start the new bus!

I'm fully freaking out right now. I'd completely psyched myself out of this cycle. Just need that line to stay put beyond Saturday now

I’ll be keeping everything crossed for you that all goes smoothly ☺️

@sleepycat91 congratulations!

@aph413 def a line!!! How many dpo are you?

silverpenguin · 03/05/2018 12:14

sleepy and aph, congratulations!!!!

@aph413 I was just popping back to update you on my first month with ovusense but I don't think I need to! Def a line! Fingers crossed it stays that way for you!

Ovusense picked up ovulation on 25 April which puts me at 8dpo. Due to work etc we weren't able to DTD between 24th and 27th so not holding out much hope, but still symptom spotting and pinning all my hopes that something hung around from the 23rd. Sitting on my hands until at least Monday before I test!

Thank you everyone
Spotty I'm 12dpo. Hoping that line gets darker by Saturday when AF is due
LG93 I've just completed my first week with ovusense I was so convinced I was out. I even paid for the year!

Congratulations @Aph413 that’s excellent news! 😍

I am symptom spotting like a mad one! Convincing myself that thrush is a sign and I have slight AF cramps but I’m only 3-4dpo so I know it can’t be... can it?! Aaaand, it might be tmi, but my wee has become quite yellow. Is that a symptom too?
(Obviously pregnant! 😂🤰)

LG93 · 03/05/2018 12:59

I only signed up for a month to see if I would use it but will do a year of this cycle isn't the one.

Felt a bit queasy last couple of days although not so bad today and that is common for me with my Metformin. Boobs are really tender today just walking about - had to put my arm under them going up and down stairs which obviously looks ridiculous. Felt a bit dizzy earlier too but again that's not uncommon for me - nor is the stabby back pain I've had today.

I'm not sure knowing when I ovulated is good for me - I normally can't symptom spot because I don't know when to do it 😂

AF due in a week so hopefully I won't be far behind you @aph !!

LG93 · 03/05/2018 13:00

Oh and lots of creamy CM today that looked a bit yellowy (sorry if TMI!)

Countrygirl94 · 03/05/2018 13:07

@Aph413 @Sleepycat91 congratulations guys! So glad for you.
@Babybeany Yes you will. Gonna stay on here for now though as most my cycle will be May, haha

@Sleepycat91 Snap. I just took a cheapie because I wanted to double check and BFN. I need to tie my hands together. Trying to avoid testing until Sunday Blush

Countrygirl94 · 03/05/2018 15:00

@Aph413 @Sleepycat91 aww girls I'm sorry. Do you think it's just cause cheapies aren't sensitive enough. I'm holding out hope for you both 💕💕🤞

Aph413 · 03/05/2018 15:21

Countrygirl I'm hoping because the first response was faint I just hadn't held my wee long enough for the cheapie. I'm trying to hold out until I'm late now.
Just hoping against hope it isn't another chemical

@Babybeany I have the BabyMed thermometer off Amazon. Cheap and reliable ! It's been great so far

congrats to the bfps

coming up to ovulation and the i have been doing the clear blue trial and i have had high readings 2 days earlier this month, could this be linked to taking b6, and seven sea ttc tablets ?

EverythingNow · 03/05/2018 16:16

Hi guys

After a really brief trip on the Due January bus, please may I join you?

Had positives from 12dpo last cycle but lost it yesterday at 4+3 Sad

So it’s onto cycle 12 now, ttc #4 aged 38. AF due 28th May but last time I had a chemical my cycle was wonky for a few months after so who knows.

Best of luck everyone!

winterwarmers · 03/05/2018 16:19

@EverythingNow i'm so sorry for your loss, welcome and fx this is your cycle

ClumsyFool · 03/05/2018 16:52

@EverythingNow I’m so sorry for your loss Flowers

MaGratgarlik1983 · 03/05/2018 16:54

Sorry @everythingnow, big hugs.

Babybeany · 03/05/2018 17:13

@EverythingNow that is sad to hear! Welcome aboard the May bus! Ding ding! Fx for us al x

EverythingNow · 03/05/2018 17:16

Thanks lovelies Smile

silverpenguin · 03/05/2018 18:54

@babybeany are you taking pregnacare? That turns my wee yellow...

@everythingnow welcome but sorry for your loss Flowers

@spottyyellowdress I have a similar pattern of spotting some months. Is it a sign of something - what is a day 21 test for?

Babybeany · 03/05/2018 20:08

@silverpenguin no, I’m only taking folic acid. What benefits are there with pregnacare?

I guess if I’m out this month it isn’t too bad. Me and my boyfriend are on holiday in June for my birthday and it’d be lovely if I could enjoy a few cocktails on the beach. 🍹 x
