Too early for an October bus?

[loveshinealight]

My AF arrived yesterday so I'm off the September bus already

Cycle #2
Trying for baby #2
Age 33

This month I am going to track my cycle using ovulation strips. DTD lots last month so I'm gutted but onwards and upwards!

More spotting this morning, 6 possibly 7dpo but still 8 days away from period 😡

8dpo and negative, obviously.

Did the maths and I only got a BFP with DC1 SIXTEEN DPO. Wtf.

Going to try to wait until weds now, and hiding all evidence of tests from DH...

@sbhf1987 implantation bleed maybe ?

@twosecs hiding from your OH haha. Mine thinks I've gone nuts.

@makeawhish eek ! Only a few more days potentially!

I swear my boobs feel like tingly. But when I touch them, nothing 🤷

TTC really is whole new world of stress isn't it?! I even got cross about Harry and Meghan's announcement this morning...I mean how beautiful and fertile can some people be?!

I'm off the October bus. Bleeding got heavier. 10dpo and now I'm stressing that my luteal phase is too short. And Meghan Markle is beautiful and pregnant and married to a prince! Ergh shitty birthday for me.

@ReginaPhalange89 I thought it might be too early for IB?
@KinCat so sorry, sending a big hug. Have a lovely bath and glass of wine ❤️

@sbhf1987 oh I'm not sure sorry ! I thought implantation happened around 6/7dpo but I've just googled and says implantation bleed normally happens around 10dpo

Still no AF here so now I'm just really confused. Sorry @kincat. It really is sh*t.

I am so so so so so sorry KinCat

@KinCat I'm so sorry totally shit timing for it to be your birthday too. Don't worry about your luteal phase, 10 days and upwards is considered normal. Sending love xx

Thanks everyone! You're all so kind! Yesterday was a bit rubbish but I feel better today, going to go out for dinner and cocktails and plan a non third trimester holiday 😁

Glad you're feeling better @kincat. Well done for staying positive.

Still no AF! CD44 here with really painful cramps and a BFN yesterday...are you all as bored of these updates as I am yet?

@KinCat that sounds like a good idea - where are you planning on going?

@veeboo not bored at all, we are all on the same bus 

My spotting Sunday device I thought was the early arrive of AF disappeared so now I'm convinced it was 10dpo implantation bleeding. Has anyone else experienced this? AF isn't technically due til this weekend, so will wait and test then if she hasn't arrived

Spoke to soon! I'm off this bus now AF seems to be here. How much can change in half an hour... 

Peonie89 I am sorry FX for the next cycle hun

KinCat so relieved you are feeling more positive today, hope you are planning somewhere nice for that holiday. Was that the one with friends? (or have I got the wrong person?)

So I have been using OPKs this cycle, thought it be sensible as DH is on nights. Expected Ov day is this Friday but every day my OPKs have been getting lighter not darker! I started taking them at CD7 as I had been having EWCM since CD5! Now I am freaking out that I might have somehow ovulated day after AF finished???????? Please tell me I am just being crazy and OPKs might start getting darker again

Day 9 (dpo)
Negative test, again.... I know it's still early but I'm losing hope 🙈

ReginaPhalange89 dont lose hope! Most people do not implant till after 9dpo anyway!!

I'm literally addicted...
I realised I hasn't had a drink all morning so I've just done another one and I swear I can see the faintest line but it's not showing on camera 🙈

Can anyone see what I'm seeing?

Peonie89 and TwittleBee we're planning on going to China. Just me and DH so maybe a different person TwittleBee although I was on holiday with friends after I just got off the September bus (I had two tries in September but was too busy to think about it for the second one!)

ReginaPhalange89 I can't see anything - they're so hard to capture on camera though. Hopefully it gets stronger for you!

@ReginaPhalange89 I think I see something but, for me, these tests always leave a mark where the line should be!

Yeah you're right I don't really trust these tests ! Although I did look back at my last pregnancy and had a faint line on 9dpo like I am today ! I'll wait a few days and try a frer!

Okay so ignore my previous rant about my morning OPK. Took one this afternoon (got fricking loads) and it's certainly dark now! Reckon I'll see a positive tomorrow so Ov day looks to be Thursday!!! Managed to DTD already today too. Whoop

KinCat ah I think that might have been what I was recalling! Ooo China would be a lovely holiday, where about you thinking?

I had implantation pains all last night and today so getting a bit excited! 8dpo and counting down the days until I can POAS.

9dpo and 3 BFN's so far ... yep, 3! That's how bay shit crazy I am.
Will probably eat sleep and repeat tomorrow. Sigh.
