Too early for a September bus?

I've (intentionally) missed out on an August BFP due to planned holidays but I'm crossing my fingers for a 7th September BFP/AF! Not sure if there's a September thread already?

Age: 27
TTC: No. 1
Cycle: 1

Getting my coil taken out this coming weekend and really hoping I'm one of the lucky ones whose cycle goes straight back to normal! I haven't had a period for years but have been tracking my bbt for the past month.

@ImpatientMammy I’ve found ttc has made me put on weight! Comfort eating all the time and not wanting to do my usual exercise even though I know you still should x

dragonmummy17 · 08/09/2018 16:26

@ImpatientMammy @sbhf1987 I agree I would rather have AF. I know it's probably not IB but the is it isn't it is starting to get frustrating. I didn't have spotting like this before ttc either

EverythingNow · 08/09/2018 16:26

Ah I've piled the pounds on ttc!

Popped out to get a frer for tomorrow and saw that one of dds friends was working on the till. So walked out again Blush and bought a Sainsbury's own - like that'll help!

I wish supermarket sold frer so you could use the self service til..

EverythingNow · 08/09/2018 16:35

And there's not a hint of a line, not even the 'dodgy thin not pregnant line that theyre famous for' on the Sainsbury's. My finger is twitching to order frer on Amazon for next day delivery tomorrow but my rational side is saying don't waste Any more money, in the unlikely event of AF not rocking up in the next 24hrs maybe I'll test Monday.

ImpatientMammy · 08/09/2018 18:17

Well ladies I'm definitely out. Good luck to all and thank you for the support this month z

Queenofmyownheart · 08/09/2018 18:28

I've put on half a stone ttc 🙈 I have a somewhat unhealthy mental approach to food for many reasons, so in order for my body to work as it should I've been trying to eat regularly and we'll and Somehow this has turned into takeaway in bed at 10pm after I've had tea 🙈🙈 trying to make up for it with salads now 😂

Lemonsugar245 · 08/09/2018 18:55

@ImpatientMammy sorry to hear this. Fingers crossed for next cycle! My gyn was over the moon he thought I would need ivf due to the state my insides are. Keep going it will be worth it in the end :)

dragonmummy17 · 08/09/2018 20:03

@ImpatientMammy sorry to hear that. Hope next month is your month

Nulanoo · 08/09/2018 20:36

So sorry to hear this x

ronniemipperton · 09/09/2018 07:44

I think I ovulated on Friday but then went to a wedding yesterday and drank a ridiculous amount which I’m sure can’t be good for ttc. So cross with myself. And hungover. Bleagh.

EverythingNow · 09/09/2018 08:58

AF due today, no sign so far. Bfn on the Sainsbury's test and on an asda pink dye. No frer available but honestly if at 14dpo it's so faint that only a frer will pick it up, im not hopeful.

I am so bloody disappointed, I had kind of got my head around it not being my month again and then yesterday's test, having about an hour of thinking I was pregnant. It's given me a wobble. It must have been faulty/user error as the exact same wee gave a bfn on second test. I know I shouldn't test early but i think this was a dodgy test rather than a chemical or anything.

Humph.

sbhf1987 · 09/09/2018 09:48

@ImpatientMammy so sorry you’re out, sending a big hug ❤️
@ronniemipperton you’ll be fine from what I’ve read that won’t have any effect. X
@EverythingNow hope you’re ok, it’s so stressful isn’t it. I seem to spend some days thinking it’s not our month again but feeling ok to properly stressing just wishing it would be 💔

I’ve just ordered 2 FRER on Amazon Prime. I’ll test Tuesday morning which will either be 11-12 dpo. Nothing more spotting wise following a brown tinge in my CM yesterday but equally slept really badly last night which usually happens one night a few days before AF is due so not hopeful. X

ronniemipperton · 09/09/2018 12:58

Thanks @sbhf1987 that makes me feel better. The one time I got a bfp it was the first time I’d tried cutting out booze but I’m probably reading too much into it. Fingers crossed for you for Tuesday.

coastergirl · 09/09/2018 13:13

Negative frer this morning. No idea what my cycle is up to after the mc anyway. Who knows!

bananabanana · 09/09/2018 14:16

I've definitely piled on the weight TTC also, glad it's not just me!

I'm out this month, AF arrived this afternoon, going to go and have a large glass of wine and some chocolate. Thank you for the support and good luck to everyone!

sbhf1987 · 09/09/2018 15:00

@ronniemipperton I know everyone’s different but I had an accidental pregnancy almost 2 years ago (had an early termination for various personal reasons) and I would have conceived around the week before Xmas day, drank pretty much the whole of December and found out 2nd week in Jan so a month of alcohol had no affects to conception or implantation. Now for the last few months ttc I’ve been healthy, minimal drinking and no luck yet x

EverythingNow · 09/09/2018 16:18

Farewell lovelies! Wishing everyone left the best of luck. Im.spotting which means AF is definitely on the way 😢

sbhf1987 · 09/09/2018 21:18

@EverythingNow sorry ❤️ Sending love xx

TreasureInMyTummy · 09/09/2018 21:19

Hello may I jump on the bus?

Ttc #2 with non-medicated iui. I had my surge today hoorah as I am poas and was nervous in case I missed it.

I've attached a pic of my sticks in case they are helpful to anyone. Last time I did this for three months to get an idea of when in my cycle I had my surge and how dark I make the stick when I surge. Rather shamefully each month I stick them on a piece of piece to track and compare the line.

When I got my line on my cheapies I then used the cb digital and got my smiley face.

Eek I'll go to fertility clinic tomorrow and then the tww begins!!!!!

I've been reading this thread from beginning, congratulations to the bfps, my sympathies to bfns, and fingers crossed for those in the tww
Xxx

Too early for a September bus?
Chocolate89 · 09/09/2018 21:21

Sorry to everyone who af turned up to. Always so hard! ❤ day 1 of a new cycle and fx for October bfp xxx
Anyone else still in the tww?

OneMoreWish · 09/09/2018 21:23

Ooh and I've just changed my name from TreasureInMyTummy as I thought I needed a more appropriate username x

rollerskaterdata · 09/09/2018 21:57

@Chocolate89 me! Well, nearly. OPK today confirmed Ov tomorrow and then tww starts on Tuesday. I'm always one of the last on these buses as my period isn't due until the end of the month each month! It's due 25th Sept this month x

OneMoreWish · 09/09/2018 22:00

I'll be testing on the 24th sept @rollerskaterdata ( and probably a few days before as well as I'm terrible at waiting!)

Glad there are a few of us still on the bus :)

Chocolate89 · 09/09/2018 22:05

Ah great to have some cycle buddies ❤ im due 22nd (i think, i ov cd21 instead of my normal cd14). Going to try hold out till 12 dpo if i can, spent a fortune last month poas.

OneMoreWish · 09/09/2018 22:08

@Chocolate89 I have no pregnancy tests in house at the moment and not going to order any until i really want to test as it will make me wait another day at least until they arrive ( I'll try avoid shops lol). I spent a small fortune last time! Xx
