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.

Woo congrats @sbhf1987!

@Chocolate89 @cupcakesandglitter @rollerskaterdata @OneMoreWish I’m also due around the 22nd so will be trying to resist the lure of the early test with you all Smile

Chocolate89 · 10/09/2018 21:57

@ronniemipperton woohoo delighted to have you with us! 😊

Chocolate89 · 10/09/2018 22:01

@rollerskaterdata you are right! I know I'm not out, just had a wobble todaythinking were can't done enough this month. I think with the tww things or so out of your hands you just feel a bit helpless! Next week cant come quick enough 😂🤪

rollerskaterdata · 10/09/2018 22:18

@ronniemipperton ooo yaye join us! I'm not due AF until 25th but will be testing on the 22nd at 12dpo. I'm a POAS addict and want to know as soon as possible!

@Chocolate89 I know what you mean, I've also BD at all the right times this month and still don't feel like I've done enough. I think when you want something so badly it's easy to obsess and over analyse though, I know I do! Really hoping the next 2 weeks fly by!

OneMoreWish · 10/09/2018 22:19

@dragonmummy17 good luck with not testing, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you. Do let us know if you feel any more symptoms. Last time I checked everything I did or felt in case it was a symptom hehe

@Wishful30 keeping my fingers crossed for you. It sounds like could be injection... me being me I would keep testing each day now but I hope you are stronger than me and can wait it out for a big strong line xx

Congratulations @sbhf1987 great news. Xxxxxxx

Yay I'm glad there are a few of us still starting/ going through tww.

I'm kind of glad at moment that I've surged and that parts done as I was getting paranoid in case I missed it.

I'm guessing this week might be easier to handle as no chance of getting bfp yet - it's when I get to 8/9dpo that I start badly symptom spotting and 10dpo my fingers start itching by the frer lol x

Jxtina86 · 11/09/2018 06:31

Hi ladies - I've been a bit quiet on here for the last few weeks. My cycle was a bit crazy and I was getting slightly disheartened that there was no sign of ovulation. However seemed to happen over the weekend and I'm now 3dpo. AF due 20th and trying to hold out until then to test...! Huge congrats to those with BFPs! Fingers crossed for everyone else in the tww!

Chocolate89 · 11/09/2018 09:03

Hello jxtina86! Delighted you're here with us! I'll be testing on the 20th with you! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

rollerskaterdata · 11/09/2018 09:07

Hey @Jxtina86! I remember you from the waiting thread 😊 good to see you over here! There are a bunch of us testing within a few days of each other so hopefully we'll get a nice flurry of BFPs!

1 dpo here 🙄 why does the tww go so slowly?!

OneMoreWish · 11/09/2018 09:43

@rollerskaterdata I hear you! 13 days to go! X

Wishful30 · 11/09/2018 13:16

Symptom spotting here we go, even tho I promised I wouldn't as it's very unlikely we dtd at the right time... and only once. 🙄

However, very tired, like to be snuggled under the duvet and DH says I'm nuts as he's hot and won't come near me as I'm roasting.
This morning i was really over heated for no reason what so ever and quite sweaty (sorry tmi)
These are good signs for me as I don't think I've had these other than when I've had my bfp's before.
All my other symptoms I'm putting down to af and medication 🤞🏻

Chocolate89 · 11/09/2018 14:24

Fingers crossed wishful!! You are due to test soon aren't you?? Xx

cupcakesandglitter · 11/09/2018 15:06

Hi @Jxtina86 !! Lovely to have you on here x

@rollerskaterdata @OneMoreWish tell me about it!! I keep checking Flo several times a day hoping that it's miraculously changed to 13dpo or instead of 13 days to go!! X

Wishful30 · 11/09/2018 15:20

@Chocolate89
I can use my FRER from today, but I'm paranoid that I'll get a false positive due to my meds. So if I can handle it, I will wait till Thursday. I will then be in the clear and 12dpo 🤞🏻

OneMoreWish · 11/09/2018 15:31

@Wishful30 you are doing so well with temptation of frer. Keep strong xx

Chocolate89 · 11/09/2018 16:47

You are almost there my dear!! Try to hold off till then and fx for a wonderful bfp xxx

@cupcakesandglitter that is hilarious, im the exact same!! Counting my ff chart to make SURE next wednesday is my 12 dpo testing day, and not really tomorrow 😂

AlReef · 11/09/2018 16:58

Hi all, I'll be testing on the 20th too, the day af is due 🤞

Jxtina86 · 11/09/2018 17:17

Hi @cupcakesandglitter and @rollerskaterdata - Good to see you both over here!

Yay for others testing around the same time - glad I'm not alone in the wait! I have no symptoms to compare to other pregnancy as it's my first time trying but it doesn't stop me from googling even the most unlikely. For example I have been having very vivid dreams for the last few days and my teeth keep tingling (I've never had this before). No idea if it's just coincidence or not but my Google search history is that of someone looking for any and all signs! At 3dpo I'm inclined to say it means nada but that doesn't stop me...!

shelly10 · 11/09/2018 17:36

Ladies I'm hopping off the September bus and onto the October one, AF came today. Good luck to everyone who is still in! Maybe see a few of you on the next thread, but hopefully not many of you!!! Xxxx

Newbie21 · 11/09/2018 19:04

Hello all, just to say that after getting my BFP, a few days later I started bleeding and sadly it was a CP so I will likely join the Oct Bus. I know I want to TTC this month just not sure if I want to try and be a bit more chilled about it so as not to put too much pressure on myself. Good luck to those wait my to test and congratulations to those with BFPs xx

Wishful30 · 11/09/2018 19:27

Aahhh @Newbie21 I'm So sorry. Sending hugs and happy thoughts. Wishing you the best of luck for next month!
Try not to let it get to you or you'll end up loosing the plot like me!
Chart the basics. Bd at ovulation. Be kind to yourself and try not to stress over it. (Easier said than done I know!)
Xx

Chocolate89 · 11/09/2018 19:36

@newbie21 ah im so sorry to hear that!! Cp are so hard, straight from that bfp we start planning our future lives only for it to dissappear before us! Mind yourself over the next few days. Dont lose hope cause it will happen for you xxxxx

ronniemipperton · 11/09/2018 21:27

So sorry to hear that @Newbie21. Best of luck for next month.

KatBeCool · 11/09/2018 21:47

@Newbie21 so sorry, hoping you're ok.

It's very hard to see so many of us go through a struggle month after month. A couple of months ago one of my girlfriends said "Getting pregnant is so easy", I just about smacked her. She's young, never tried getting pregnant, she had no idea and argued back.

LozD · 11/09/2018 22:56

Haven’t been on here really since I first posted but now 3dpo according to my solid smiley face test. So is 12dpo the best time to test? My cycles have been all over the place for last 6 months, only started using ov sticks this months so it’s the first time I’ve actually known a bit more about what’s going on! So I guess AF is due around 22nd?

KatBeCool · 12/09/2018 03:11

Opened a new box of ClearBlue. I knew I'm due for Peak as I've been getting High (reading) for the past three days. Tried one stick - negative, tried another one - negative. Tried the trusted internet cheapie - positive. All my old CB always matched the cheapie, this one seems to be faulty. Disappointing as I had to go two stores to find this OPK.

Too early for a September bus?
