February Bus?!

Hello all

Thought I'd start a February bus thread (sorry if there is one I've not seen). AF caught me off guard today after being 4 days late and hoping we'd caught lucky first time.

Statistics:
33, TTC 1, Cycle 2, CD 1

Came off the pill November so now I've had my first proper AF I think I may try OPKs this month.

Baby dust to everyone xxx

Just poas again even though I know it's too early! When I got pregnant with my DD I was a week late before I got a bfp anyway!

barnburntdown · 07/02/2019 07:49

It's constantly on my mind too. Feeling quite meh this morning. Stomach in knots....I think AF is on her way. Vivid dreams last night

PaintingOwls · 07/02/2019 08:51

I have been incredibly tired recently, slept from 9pm last night until 7am this morning. My breasts are a bit sore and tender. I don't dare POAS, I've still got 5 days to go until AF is due.

bunhead34 · 07/02/2019 10:30

@PaintingOwls sounds promising 🤞

Bels83 · 07/02/2019 11:03

@barnburntdown me too! I just feel bloated and meh. I had a day of constant mild cramps on Tuesday, so convinced myself I'm pregnant, but every other symptom I'm sure I'm making up Confused
I feel like my breasts are bigger but that can be a sign of AF or I'm just imagining that too lol!!
I'm 10dpo I think.

DinoGreen · 07/02/2019 12:28

Good luck to all waiting to test in the next few days. I think AF is finally going to arrive today, I had a teeny bit of brown when I wiped just now. Onwards and upwards for next month!

LazyDaisy99 · 07/02/2019 13:09

I'm 7DPO and itching to POAS Confused I think we had good timings this month but feeling a little flat this month on cycle 9 ttc #2. I keep thinking of the quote about the definition of insanity being 'doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome'. I just can't see how this month will be any different to the other 8 cycles Sad

barnburntdown · 07/02/2019 13:18

Just poas...BFN at 10dpo and all the signs are now that AF is on its way. I'm also super stressed in the process of selling and buying a house so that is probably accounting for the weird symptoms and the general meh dodgy stomach.

Ah well.

Bels83 · 07/02/2019 14:03

@barnburntdown I've just poas too and also bfn. Trying not to feel too deflated, but it's just such an emotional rollercoaster!!

PaintingOwls · 07/02/2019 14:55

Thanks bunhead34 I just don't want to get my hopes up for nothing!

mrscatmad31 · 07/02/2019 17:02

Im having some cramps now, AF isnt due for another 4 days so convincing myself its implantation cramps- probably isnt!

bunhead34 · 07/02/2019 18:40

I've just had my fertility check scan, and the lady said it couldn't be more normal, and that I'm very fertile as I've ovulated from both ovaries this month!
Very pleased but also wondering where my baby is then?!
Anyway, bloods next week - onwards and upwards.

PaintingOwls · 07/02/2019 18:45

bunhead34 is it your DP then?

bunhead34 · 07/02/2019 18:49

@PaintingOwls possibly, I've got bloods next week and if no answers from there he will be going for sperm tests.
I think we've both just presumed that any problem lay with me so the scan results were a surprise!

MissMooMoo · 07/02/2019 22:04

Feeling quite crampy today,4dpo.
Sorry if this is TMI but the cycle I conceived ds I had an enormous amount of ewcm,it was like snot when you have a runny nose just down below.
I also had that this cycle so I am feeling really positive.

I got a positive test with ds at 8dpo,wondering if I should start testing then or not.

CoachBombay · 08/02/2019 08:37

Morning all.

So sorry about the BFN at 10dpo, could still be early, I suppose your not out till AF arrives.

I have now no idea where I am in this cycle, I've literally gone a bit mad...last night I had ewcm, at what I presumed was 3dpo, not that I ever had a positive ovulation tes, so just to cover all bases in case I was ovulating at CD18..... I drove a 4hour round journey just to shag DH in the back of a Volvo and drive home 😳😳😳 wtf is wrong with me 😂😂

barnburntdown · 08/02/2019 09:05

Morning all. After yesterday mornings BFN , last night my partner and I shared some prosecco to celebrate the near selling of our house. I then poas before I went to bed. Looked at it and thought BFN. Didn't really scrutinise it though . Went to sleep , woke up and I think I see a VERY faint 2nd line /BFP......I know you shouldn't read it later but could this be?

joylondon · 08/02/2019 12:08

@CoachBombay that is brilliant!! 😂 😂 love that your OH was up for it too.

@barnburntdown test again first thing in the morning 👍🏻

MissMooMoo · 08/02/2019 12:54

@barenburntdown poas again!

coconutlatte44 · 08/02/2019 13:09

@CoachBombay - funniest thing I've heard all day. Sounds like something we would've done 10 years ago but can't imagine it now!! Well done 😂

barnburntdown · 08/02/2019 14:16

Poas again on CB digi (partner didn't realise to get the frer)...bfn...period not due for 5 days though and only 60% of of women get a positive result at this time in this test. I'm off on the pissing rain to Superdrug now ...

PaintingOwls · 08/02/2019 14:25

CoachBombay

Love your dedication!! Grin I hope it pays off!

AF came unexpectedly at lunch today and I am so upset, tired, and angry. This means that this cycle was 25 days and I ovulated 2 days before we DTD at all. I never stood a chance Sad

MissMooMoo · 08/02/2019 15:52

Sorry to hear @paintingowls
Are you just assuming that you ovulated exactly 2 weeks earlier or are you using opks? Its possible you have had a shorter luteal phase this month if you got a positive opk.
Fingers crossed for next cycle

MissMooMoo · 08/02/2019 15:53

@barnburntdown I got a positive with ds at 8dpo with superdrug version of frer, I didn't use a digi until my period was late because I also read that they aren't very sensitive.
Keep us updated!

barnburntdown · 08/02/2019 16:08

Just did a frer. BFN so far.
But I still feel like I'm preggers...psychosomatic, much !
