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.

@rollerskaterdata mines due around 22nd(Ish) so I'll be in the TWW with you x

@Chocolate89 I'll be testing with you!! I'm going to hold off testing too x

sbhf1987 · 10/09/2018 05:37

I’m testing tomorrow at 11/12 dpo! Not feeling hopeful this month though and I am away over my predicted fertile week next cycle without my DH x

Wishful30 · 10/09/2018 07:38

CD8 today.
Had some odd mild shooting pains yesterday. Think it's something and nothing. I'm putting every little thing down to the progesterone and planning for af when I go away. Don't want to get my hopes up for any reason and be sad on holiday.
Good luck to this in the 2ww, and sorry for the bfn, see you on the October bus most likely

sbhf1987 · 10/09/2018 08:25

Oh my god oh my god oh my god my meeting was cancelled today and my FRERs were due to arrive this afternoon... I was ready to be disappointed but 11dpo ... I don’t even know what to do! DH not home til 6.30. I had to ring my sister!

@sbhf1987 congratulations!! It seems the months we think we are out we certainly aren’t!!

sbhf1987 · 10/09/2018 08:37

Thank you @Lemonsugar245 just hope it’s a sticky bean now ❤️ No symptoms at all but CB digits are 25mui so wasn’t expecting anything to show! X

dragonmummy17 · 10/09/2018 08:49

@sbhf1987 congratulations!

cupcakesandglitter · 10/09/2018 09:01

Ahh congrats @sbhf1987 💕 x

Ailsamolly · 10/09/2018 09:10

@sbhf1987 big congratulations :)

I have a clear blue arriving today. I'm supposed to start my AF tomorrow and I'm getting strong cramps so I'm stressing myself thinking this may be a chemical. I've had cramps for about 10 days now tho so fingers crossed it's just carrying on and not for another reason x

Bubblemumma1 · 10/09/2018 10:14

Huge congratulations @sbhf1987! What a lovely surprise!

Queenofmyownheart · 10/09/2018 10:16

@sbhf1987 massive congratulations!!

sbhf1987 · 10/09/2018 10:27

Thank you so much ladies now I’ve gone from stressing during the TWW to stressing I make it through the next 8 weeks ok!

piglet81 · 10/09/2018 11:49

Congratulations @sbhf1987!

12dpo here and feeling very premenstrual (aka could murder my husband) so I'm probably out. On holiday and deliberately didn't bring any tests though, so still in limbo!

sbhf1987 · 10/09/2018 12:12

I felt very irritable yesterday and don’t feel any different so don’t count yourself out yet @piglet81 x

rollerskaterdata · 10/09/2018 14:06

@sbhf1987 oooooo massive congrats! That's wonderful news!

@OneMoreWish @Chocolate89 @cupcakesandglitter glad I have some cycle buddies to wait with! We'll all be in the tww together 😊 here's hoping for BFPs for all of us! I wasted so much money on tests last month too as I was testing from 10dpo! I also symptom spotted myself to madness, I won't be doing that again! I really think I had a chemical as I had the faintest of faint lines on a FRER at 12dpo and then my period came on time! I'm not entirely sure though, I think I'm good at imagining lines 🤦‍♀️ like you guys I won't be testing until 12dpo too the absolute earliest (I'd still personally want to know early) so as I'm ovulating today I'll be 1dpo tomorrow and testing on the 22nd too woohoo! Testing buddies 😊 x

cupcakesandglitter · 10/09/2018 14:19

@rollerskaterdata yay 😁 I think I'm actually going to try and not test at all before then and try not to symptom spot either - I stressed myself out too much last cycle and I really want to enjoy it xx

Chocolate89 · 10/09/2018 14:25

@sbhf1987 oh i am so delighted for you!! Massive congrats!!

@cupcakesandglitter @rollerskaterdata @OneMoreWish felt so unhopeful today, only dtd the 2 days before ov, not on the day or after, so really really hope we're caught the eggy! Just just got a bad feeling this morning... fingers crossed!!

cupcakesandglitter · 10/09/2018 14:36

@Chocolate89 I know it's easier said than done, but try not to think about it for the time being - we won't know until AF does/doesn't arrive 😊 a lot of people don't know they're pg and that's helped me to not symptom spot this month! Xx

rollerskaterdata · 10/09/2018 17:34

@Chocolate89 2 days before Ov is still perfect timing! Remember we're fertile the few days leading up to it, day of and the day after, so actually have more chances to DTD and get pregnant before we ovulate! You're still in hun! 😊

@cupcakesandglitter I know what you mean. We were in the tww together last month and I got crazy remember?! 😂🤪 well not this month, no siree! I had symptoms galore last month and all for nought! And I spent so much money on FRERs too. So I will sit quietly and patiently until 12dpo at least and ignore my body completely 😂😁😬

KatBeCool · 10/09/2018 18:49

@sbhf1987 congrats!

I'm on CD11, OPK is still blinking, which is discouraging if my cycle is only 24 days. I expected it to go solid today. Temp didn't drop like last month and there's no ecwm, I'm feeling pretty down.

EverythingNow · 10/09/2018 19:07

Huge congratulations @sbhf1987

sbhf1987 · 10/09/2018 19:18

Thank you everyone. DH is very very happy. I put the test in a little gift bag and when he got home from work got the dogs to run to the door with it. He couldn’t believe it. Now he’s googling pregnancy at 4 weeks and baby names lol x

Wishful30 · 10/09/2018 19:35

So I had my ovitrelle injection 10days ago tomorrow. Apparently it can give false positives up to 10days after.
So me being me thought, I'll take an OPK, as I had a spare one I can't use.. it's positive 🤔
So either the medication is still in my system (most likely)
Or maybe, just maybe I'm pregnant 🤷🏻‍♀️
Keeping hold off my test till Wednesday at the earliest.
I'm very very hungry, but that's probably impending af 🙄

Congratulations to the bfp's and good luck to those still waiting x

Nulanoo · 10/09/2018 19:59

Congratulations to all the good news :)

dragonmummy17 · 10/09/2018 21:34

@wishful30 🤞
I'm still spotting. But my boobs really ache tonight. So I am fully on the rollercoaster of symptom spotting. I'm 9 or 10po so trying to hold off until weds at least before testing
