Toot toot! June Bus!

[sailorcherrie]

Not sure if it is a certain person/group of people who start these threads but hadn't seen the June bus rolling round yet so here goes...

🚌🤞🏻👶🏻

AGE: 27
TTC: #1
CYCLE: 2 (properly trying)
AF/BFP DUE: 5th June

@xLauraa. Hey :-) I'm about 11dpo (I can say this as the clomid worked!) Really pleased about that. However, I do feel like my period is on its way as I've slept crap the last few nights and I'm quite...gassy lol I always get like that before.

@xLauraa. Oops posted before I was ready - how's everything with you? Any updates?

According to clue I'm cycle day 25 and 12dpo - AF due on Monday, bunting. My cycles are a bit variable though - 25-28 days.

I'm trying not to get too excited as it's so early. I'm thinking about doing another IC tomorrow to compare lines but not sure if that's just torturing myself and I should just wait... dreading this being a chemical - if it is I'd rather have not known.

bunting should add I only tested today because I had a family event earlier that I needed to know whether I could drink at!

Congratulations @FrowningFlamingo 💕
I'm currently CD30, no sign of AF and no BFP. Last month was a cycle of 51 days and I'm praying each month won't be like this as it's going to end up taking an age to fall preg again. I'm feeling pretty down and everywhere I look I see new babies or pregnant ladies 😐

@trippingoverrainbows that sounds so frustrating. Do you know when you ovulated?

@HidCat I honestly don't have a clue. I didn't want to do OPKs as I was trying to be 'relaxed' about TTC but I feel anything but relaxed now. Maybe I should try using them ASAP. Cervical mucus is so variable that I don't feel it gives me a good enough gauge either.

How are you getting on?

So this is the longest I’ve been for the last 12 months without pre-af spotting...trying not to get my hopes up buuuuttt either way, it’s good news! Had a rubbish day and throwing caution to the wind and enjoying wine 🥂

@Spottyyellowdress sounds promising!!

Enjoy your 🥂

@trippingoverrainbows thats frustrating when you can't be sure. I've gone on ewcm which matches my pre-MC cycle length.

10 dpo here with AF due Tues / wed. BFN this morning. Had pink discharge yesterday and sore boobs today (not a normal period symptom for me). Going to try to hold off testing for a couple of days.

@Spottyyellowdress fingers crossed that's good!

@trippingoverrainbows and @hidcat thank you! I hope so too and obvs entirely convinced that this is it but I’m only 8dpo so we’ll see 😂

Best of luck for you both...hope this is the big month for us all!

Just catching up again.... Big congrats to all the BFPs!
I'm now cycle day 4, so still hopeful for a BFP at the very end of the month....

@trippingoverrainbows I've been going by cervical mucus too but now feeling that it isn't always helpful. Deciding to go for it and just DTD every second day for most of the cycle. Last month we only managed 2 times in the fertile window according to ovia due to work etc.

Fingers crossed. How is everyone else doing?

Fingers crossed spottyyellowdress!

hidcat I had unusual pinkish discharge earlier in my cycles and had BFP this morning so hopefully it's a good sign for you too!

@FrowningFlamingo thank you but that's not helping my POAS addiction 😂.

I had a very faint line on a FRER this morning, I’m either 9 or 10 dpo, trying desperately to not POAS for another few days!

Oops! Sorry, HidCat

@spottyyellowdress enjoy your wine! I'm celebrating no spotting at 10DPO which is usually the case 🤷🏻‍♀️ whatever it means I'll be glad to see the back of it!

@lp17 brilliant! If nothing else, maybe this is the start of almost normal cycles for us! I only hope mine holds out too 10dpo too...sounds v v v positive for you! 🤞

Still low fertility. Lying in bed crying my eyes out :( I just KNOW deep down there is something wrong with me.

@JustLikeTheySaid

Don't beat yourself up! hugs
What cycle day are you on, and how long is your cycle usually?

Have you used OPK's before?

Testing twice a day is a good idea if you can as occasionally our LH surge will only last for 12 hours. So may just miss is by a few hours.
All is not lost!

@JustLikeTheySaid

I can't recommend The London Womens clinic more. Even just for a chat.
I'm sure there are many fertility clinics. But sometimes just talking to someone will help put your mind at ease.
I had a meltdown at the poor lady on the phone, she was so lovely and I decided to spend £300 on the basic pack for us both to have bloods, semen sample test and an ultrasound to look at my eggs.
As it's private, I didn't have to wait long at all!

Usually cycle is approx 30 days but it has varied a little. Last month I ovulated day 18 (peak on the monitor) And had high fertility from day 12. Month before I was only using the cheap internet opks but I ovulated on day 18 too according to them.

This month it is day 15 and the clearblue is saying low fertility. I mean I suppose something miraculous could happen but it won't jump to peak without some high days first?

I'm using the clearblue trial one so I can't test more than once a day.

I know this is only month 3 of trying properly which in the grand scheme of things is nothing. I think in my head if I haven't fallen pregnant by month 6 I will pay for tests. My husband will go mad if I do that though! He is much more relaxed than me.

Google seems to suggest an anovulatory cycle is really unlikely... maybe it is just going to be a long one this month?

Thanks ladies. Still quietly snivelling to myself in bed. :(

Hi all,
I'm on the June bus. All new for me.
TTC: #1
Cycle: #1
Cycle length: 23-27 days (25 average)
CD: 12
AF: due 17th June
Age: 33

So far have DTD CD 5, 9 and 11 but all ovulation sticks have said negative so far.
Wasn't going to go down the ovulation stick route but a friend with a 6/12 old gave them to me.
The fact the sticks are all showing negative is worrying and apps all say different things.
Is it possible to ovulate day 14 onwards with a 25 day cycle?

@lizzybizzyboo
Welcome to the crazy world of ttc.

Stay calm, keep positive

I ovulate anytime between cd14-16 which is deemed average.
So carry on testing. You'll figure it out x

@Wishful30 thank you can understand how all consuming it can be!
