July Bus

[HidCat]

Hey everyone,
I'm out for June so on CD1 and expecting AF to turn up around July 7th. Here's hoping for a lucky bus! 🍀 🚌

@DartmoorDoughnut ok I've just noticed I'm actually 7dpo! Sorry about that confusion but I wasn't tracking opk this month x

@Owlpatrol thank you! Although I think I’m not pregnant but at least you won’t test too early now! X

@Dartmoor that is a faint line! Tentative congrats! So exciting. I'm the same, so many ICs have been peed on already and only at 10dpo.. All bfns obviously! What dpo are you?

@DartmoorDoughnut yeah I've just got cheapie tests so I might do one early say the 23rd if I can wait that long! Good luck for af not showing! X

@DartmoorDoughnut I see a line! Exciting!! My sympathies with the 18 month old, I have one too and his sleep has gone to shit recently. I'm very tired!

@Alex2790 sounds like great progress with your doctor, hope the tests go well! If you know when you ovulate, it might be worth getting that test at 7DPO rather than CD21 to get a more accurate result.

@CatRen27 I think I ov’d on 1/7 so I make that 10dpo? I am going to try to not buy any more tests now until AF is due I know I’ll fail but I’m going to try!

@Owlpatrol good luck to you too!

@NoseringGirl they’re hard work when they don’t sleep aren’t they! Why do we want to do this again?!

alex2790 I'm glad you're being taken seriously, hopefully it leads to something.

According to my app I should be 3dpo now but I don't think I've ovulated this month. I've been using cheap ipk for the first time and had nothing, plus no ewcm which I normally get a little of. Those of you who use opk, how strict are you with the instructions? I've been ignoring the bit that says to leave the pee until it gets to room temperature to avoid toddler Ds finding it and asking questions. I've also not been avoiding drinking or peeing for a few hours beforehand like it says to as I've been getting bad enough headaches in the recent heat as it is.

@DartmoorDoughnut I have been asking myself that! At least they're cute 🙈 and they do sleep eventually!

@Changingagain I've never left mine to get to room temperature and I hold it for as long as I can but I do tend to drink a lot of water. I had a proper positive this month but they're usually never quite as dark as the control line but I see progression. I know I'm ovulating though as my temps going up and I get AF 10 days later. Do you just use OPKs?

Thanks Noseringgirl, I normally just guess based on ewcm and feeling more into DTD. We tend to DTD every other day on average anyway, so I've only started using opk to see if I was guessing correctly.
I looked at temping first but the guides say about checking it before moving in the morning, seemingly assuming a peaceful nights sleep. With a toddler who's only just starting to occasionally sleep through, I didn't think I'd get accurate enough results.

@Changingagain that does make it more difficult. I use an Ava bracelet which makes it a bit easier and gives me an accurate result as long as I get a block of 3 hours. I'm really into all the tracking though, it's like a very bizarre hobby 🤣

Dartmoor I still see a line. I always get the strongest lines with the cheap tests, so hopefully you will find out for sure tomorrow. My husband changed his mind about a second child, but luckily I’d conceived the first month and was already pregnant. It was just nerves because now he’s tentatively ready to try for our third. He just wants us to ‘see what happens’ so we are going for it but without a plan or anything. I’m 38 in November so know it might be harder to get pregnant this time.

@ThriftyMcThrifty Yep I’m the wrong side of 35 too, joy! I did a FRER earlier and got a evap/grey line, wish I had more self control but I’m going to try to not test tomorrow already resigned to a -ve in the morning! this is the best photo I’ve got which shows how non existent the line is! Slightly depressed as I know this is my last shot and I’m fairly convinced I’m not

AF due yesterday, tested this morning & negative. Shall I test again tomorrow or wait afew days?! So difficult to wait but also nice to have the hope (if you know what I mean)!

@DartmoorDoughnut
If you zoom right in you can see a very skinny little line. Still keeping my fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻

This site was posted on the TWW thread and it says I shouldn’t be testing until Monday so hopefully it’s just far too early @Wishful30

Hello! I was on the June bus, got a bfn and felt too meh to post for a while. Bfp due 15th July - ttc no. 2 against several odds - age/pcos/crap swimmers. Cycle 2 but the first time took months so trying not to get hopes up.

Good luck splishsplashy

dylan001 you should wait a few days, I wouldn't though, I'd be testing again today.

Hoping this was actually a real ovulation this time! 🤞🏻🙏🏻🤞🏻
This cycle has been crazy 🤯

@Pudding01 that temp spike looks promising I think?

@Dartmoordoughnut how are you feeling today?

@Dylan001 how are you today?

@Dartmoordoughnut Thank you for that link! I did my first FRER this morning and was so disappointed when it was stark white BFN but I popped my dates in here and I shouldn't be testing until tomorrow at the earliest so really really hoping it's just a touch too early.

Im good today thanks- no af yet so fingers crossed!!

@Pudding01 I think that temp dip and spike looks promising too 🤞🏻
