May bus

[Paddypaws91]

Hi everyone 👋

Can't see a May bus, so thought I'd start one up!

A little bit about me...

TTC: #1
Age: 28
Cycle: 5
CD: 5
AF/BFP due: 10th May

This cycle I'm making a real effort to take my pre-conception vitamins EVERY day and going to use Pre-seed this cycle too.

Come on in and share your stories, symptoms and if needed, vent to your heart's content...

Thanks guys. Going to try get a frer tomorrow just hoping it's real.....

Goodluck mommato. I can see something there

I'm not holding out much hope tbh. Been told it's common to have some kinda line on the ic when they're dry. Will try again in a couple of days. May wait see if the witch shows if I can to save money...

Those who have got their positives, did you have any symptoms and how early did you spot them?

@mrssunshinexxx yeah that will cover it!!

I got this last night. Feeling very odd this morning. Not quite sure its sunk in!

Yay @rubberyduck that’s fantastic! Congratulations!

@Rubberyduck brilliant stuff!

Congrats @Rubberyduck that's great!

Thank you all. I am a little bit concerned as I had 3 days of bad cramping. I know you can have cramping with implantation but it felt quite painful. I have eveything crossed the positive sticks.

Fx for those testing today!

@Rubberyduck a lot of ppl with BFPs have said that their cramping felt like AF was coming, so i would take cramps as a positive. Have you had any other symptoms?

Yeah I definately had cramping with DC1 but this time it hurt 😲 I'm sure I am being paranoid.

No nausea yet, just a little tired and my boobs seem abit bigger and much softer. Wierd!

Ooo, exciting!

I've got cramps and feel so very tired. Why oh why are Af symptoms the same as early pregnancy symptoms. It's like some cruel joke.

I don't even know what is happening with me.. had all the signs and signals of ovulation on CD17 on the 21st April so DTD loads around then and now if going on another 35 day cycle AF would be due tomorrow but have had cramping/really sore boobs (which I don't usually get on AF) and some abdominal pains for just over 4 days now with extreme tiredness and then Sunday and Tuesday I had medium-large amounts of clear EWCM! Took a OPK this morning which showed a faint line have also done IC/clear blue and FREF preg test this week and all are undoubtedly negative.

Has anyone been in a position like this before? I just want to know what is going on!

Super excited to see static smiley this morning 😊 I checked yesterday at 5pm and it was still flashing so not sure when surge started, hoping that if we DTD tonight and tomorrow night I’ll be fine. We also DTD on Monday 🤞

So glad ovulation was later this month or is definitely have missed it.

I've decided I'm out this month. No sign of af yet but she isn't due til at least Friday. I have no real reason to feel I'd be lucky this time. Usually I'd have sore boobs but I just have a tender patch. Onwards and upwards I guess.

I'm feeling very blah today. Just found out my daughter to another mother has had her baby boy but sadly he's passed away so I'm feeling quite broken right now. It's put things into perspective and right now she needs me more than I need to obsess over getting pregnant. Good luck everyone x

I'm only 6dpo and I promised myself I wouldn't symptom spot. I've had lower back pain for a few days and feeling knackered with some cramping. Although this may be down to work.

I also said I would just wait for AF and then if late take a test, but now I'm googling FRERs! This makes you crazy!

@Rubberyduck Congratualations!! So happy for you!

@MrsMck18 I agree it's so hard not to test before BFP/AF date! FRERs ways seem to be on special offer when you think about buying them... 😂

CD10 and I got a flashing smiley today 😊 Looking forward to start trying again this cycle!

My first month OPKing. Can I just check that these are both positive? What do yous think? First is this morning and second is now.

Af due today and still no show....
BFN on frer this morning though with second morning urine.

@MaryH90

That's looks positive to me. It actually looks like the brand that I use.

@mommato3 You're by no means out, everyone is so different with their symptoms. I understand what you were saying about waiting to see if AF arrives, I'm due Friday and decided to do the same. Awful news about your daughter (from another mother) 😞 hope you're doing okay x

Congratulations @Rubberyduck xx 💕

Sorry to hear your news @mommato3 xx

I'm 5dpo. Had some cramping but I'm sure it's in my head 😂😂 my temps are scatty due to shift work but have detected ovulation the day after my last positive opk. So I now know my one ovary is working like a trooper in there!

Hope everyone else is ok xx

@paddypaws91 I am due on my period Friday and a little nervous. I do not want to do a test before my period is due as the désappointement feels more painful to see on a stick. Are you going to test before you are due or wait Saturday ?

@Renault5 feeling nervous too, we got this though 💪🏼 think will test Saturday morning AF hasn't arrived. When u thinking of testing? Had any symptoms?
