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.

Adding to that, I can clearly see the strong blue on CB if I look at it without the digital reader.

dragonmummy17 · 12/09/2018 06:14

@Newbie21 so sorry to hear that.

dragonmummy17 · 12/09/2018 06:40

I'm out for this month. AF arrived last night which means a 20 day cycle. We probably missed the fw by several days as my cycle is usually 25 days.
I'm feeling fed up. That's now 6 cycles and no sign of a BFP. I'm 36 and probably should start thinking about a gp appointment. Except I'm not sure they'll bother as I already have DS. And I feel guilty about wanting a dc2 so much because it feels like I'm saying DS isn't enough for me. Which he is and I feel so lucky to have him.
Sorry for the vent. I'm feeling a little emotional today and just needed to let it out. I'll jump over to the October bus shortly. Good luck to everyone waiting for their bfp

@dragonmummy17
Don't feel bad for wanting a second child! It would be lovely for your DS to have a sibling to play with xx
Go for a GP appointment, you have nothing to loose. It may at least put your mind at rest.
Take care of yourself and try switch off a bit.
Maybe work out roughly when you're ovulating next, and don't chart anything. Give yourself a break x

Pretty sure I'll see you on the October bus x

Wishful30 · 12/09/2018 07:25

I'm testing tomorrow @ apparently 12dpo
Had to stop myself this morning! I just want to know either way now, it's driving me nuts

rollerskaterdata · 12/09/2018 13:17

Well that lasted 2 days. I'm already symptom spotting but that's because I'm having AF type cramps that I can't ignore. At 2dpo! I'm absolutely ridiculous 🤦‍♀️ I'm really trying not to symptom spot but my body won't let me not!

Everything crossed for you for tomorrow @Wishful30

Wishful30 · 12/09/2018 13:27

So i just used a FRER.... now... in the middle of the afternoon 😂
Obviously bfn. Very clearly so. I caved to just get it out of my system as having af symptoms, cramping and back ache. A little early for af, but pretty sure I'm out.
At least I know the meds are out of my system now so no false positive.
I'll test in the morning, and then pack af supplies for my holiday 🙄

Wishful30 · 12/09/2018 13:32

Going by previous charts I should start spotting on day 27 and be full af on day 28. I've had one 26d cycle in months and months of charting.
Today is day 24 🤷🏻‍♀️ so really I shouldn't have any af symptoms till Saturday... I guess maybe progesterone has messed up this one? First cycle with this medication.
But I'll be surprised if af isn't here by the morning 😣 at least I'll only have a couple of day of holiday ruined rather than pretty much all of it

dragonmummy17 · 12/09/2018 20:44

@Wishful30 sorry for the bfn today... hopefully a better result tomorrow. Hope you have a lovely holiday

coastergirl · 12/09/2018 21:14

Hi ladies, I'm out. Tbh I'm ok with it. Too many complicated factors to explain.

Good luck to you all.

Wishful30 · 13/09/2018 07:36

Morning ladies. Looks like I'm out.
My CB monitor asked me to test so I used that one first.
I could see a faint line even tho it said not pregnant, so I used my FRER in the same urine. Clear as a Belle BFN.

I'll hang around until af arrives and hope to see some bfp's before I hop onto the October bus ☺️
Good luck ladies xx

@dragonmummy17 don’t feel bad about wanting a second. Things can change in our bodies so they have to look into it for you xxx

sbhf1987 · 13/09/2018 09:34

Sorry to those ladies that are out this month too sending love 💕

ronniemipperton · 13/09/2018 21:05

Sorry to those who are out.

I thought I was going to be all relaxed this cycle (first proper one after mmc so wasn’t getting my hopes up) but at 6dpo I’m doing the usual wishing the days away/hoping if AF turns up she does it early so I can stop wondering and get on the next bus. And I just loads of pineapple core (too late as you’re apparently supposed to have it between 1-5dpo, though I think it’s almost certainly nonsense) and it was DISGUSTING.

Chocolate89 · 13/09/2018 22:06

Sorry to those that are out❤

Im right there with you ronnie! 6dpo and time is draaagging. Skin has broken out, feel exhausted and quite bloated, so not feeling my best anyway! 12dpo seems so far away, i'm scrolling back to see when people got their bfp to justify tesing earlier 😂

TooInquisitive · 14/09/2018 06:44

Hi all, just got my BFP so after lurking here all month I thought I'd share in case it helped anyone. I know your stories have helped me.

This was c#1 after having copper coil removed (which took some real persistence to get out - doctors not v helpful in this case- went to clinic in the end). I got a static smiley on 01 Sept and then went POAS crazy. I tested at 6dpo, 8dpo and 9dpo all bfns not surprisingly. But at 8dpo and 9dpo I feel pretty nauseous. Not sure why as hcg clearly wasn't high enough to show on a test but it felt exactly like my morning sickness.

Any how now showing 1-2 weeks. FX all goes ok!

Lots of luck to everyone x

buntingandstarcharts · 14/09/2018 07:39

Girls. 9dpo. Done a cheapie and don't have any more cheapies left to double check. I can't even cope because I got this and I just can't believe it could be positive - is it?!?!

buntingandstarcharts · 14/09/2018 07:43

I think I'm mad. It must be evaporation lines🤭🤢🤯

Wishful30 · 14/09/2018 07:46

@buntingandstarcharts
Keeping fingers crossed for you. You'll need to re test to see if it gets darker. Hope you're got a strong sticky little bean!!

Im keeping an eye on the post for the bfp's 🤞🏻
I'm sitting st the airport. Not the best place for a progesterone pessarie 😂 but hey ho, needs must 🤦🏻‍♀️
No sign of af yet. Due sat/sun and I have a back ache, bloated and cm (which is actually a bit ew consistency 🤔 sorry tmi)

Wishful30 · 14/09/2018 07:48

@buntingandstarcharts
You can only get a false positive with some medication. So unless you've left that way past the time limit, I'd say you have currently conceived 😳😃👍🏻

buntingandstarcharts · 14/09/2018 07:51

@Wishful30 it's been 11 months of trying so I can't allow myself to be excited as you say - I must make sure I test again each day to make sure it's darker. I really can't even believe I've seen a slight second line after nearly a year of Snowy white blank negatives! 😵😵😵😵

Wishful30 · 14/09/2018 08:17

@buntingandstarcharts
I know what you mean, believe me!!
Wishing you all the best xx

Chocolate89 · 14/09/2018 09:08

@buntingandstarcharts looking very hopeful!! Hope that line gets darker and darker for you each day ❤

buntingandstarcharts · 14/09/2018 09:21

Look! I am in utter disbelief! It must be wrong!
