June Bus

[tisonlymeagain]

All aboard...kickstarting the June bus as trying to remain positive now AF has just arrived.

This is me...

TTC: 3
Age: 39
Cycle: 2
CD: 1
AF/BFP due: 1st June

Going for number 3, but first with DP. Bit worried about my age and just coming off the pill but cycles seem pretty normal. Doing OPKs and night start temping.

Good luck everyone. Look forward to joining you on this journey. Next!

@NLouise123 omg mine was 34 days too this month just gone 😂😅 I'm on CD7 at the moment, OPKs arrived today so will start testing with them from CD15 as that's when fertile window is supposed to start according to OVIA

Scrap that! Flo is saying 17th to 27th and Ovia is saying 20th to 26th 🤦🏼‍♀️😡

@flossy12 oh bloody hell I bet that's so frustrating! What dates are you going to follow!?

@NLouise123 just going to do the OPKs from the 17th then hopefully I'll be covered and have some sort of idea when I'm ovulating 😂 could have been completely out last month as didn't realise I would have such a long cycle

AF arrived today see some of you on the July bus - I'm hoping for a normal cycle this time, this cycle was 78 days with only an 11 day luteal phase. Was first cycle TTC so if this keeps up I'll go see the GP!

@lewk sorry to hear that AF arrived 😣 78 days is a long cycle! Hopefully it becomes more regular for you soon

I'm 7 days past my last fertile day AF due 17th apparently. No idea when I ovulated. Feeling dizzy and some nausea today. Boobs abit tender but mm. Poas negative. Could I still get a positive or am I out and just waiting for AF?

Thanks @mrssunshinexxx and so much luck to you!

@Sleepyhead11 it’s so tough. I was thinking the same thing last month and it really did take until this month to see just how crazy I was driving myself and to really want to stop it all. There are absolutely uses to all the tracking, I get that, but I’m only 4 months in (probably moving on to month 5) with reasonably regular cycles and no known problems. So over and out from me (probably until about a week before my next period when I seem to start the crazies 😂)

Loads of luck to you, whatever you decide. And to everyone else. Can’t wait till we are on preggo threads together 😘

Hi joining the June bus after being quiet for a couple of weeks - the May bus was so friendly so literally the only thing i was looking forward to about another month TTC was some good chat on here!

ttc #1
age 31
cycle 6 i think
CD13 (think i'll ovulate tomorrow though flo says today)
AF due 25th
First cycle using OPKs although i'm fairly confident in my ovulation date i just want to double check everything

Sorry if i've missed a few things - i've just skimmed through the last 100 or so messages in the thread haha

@Stilltobeseen i've always had a bit of spotting a few days before AF, i asked the doctor about it once and she said not to worry about it. I think as long as it's not unusual for you it's probably ok?

@Treaclepie19 I think it's probably ok to continue as long as you aren't drastically changing fitness routines - I did couch to 5k before and the start is a lot of walking and it builds up gradually. If your doctor was pleased then why not continue - when i did it i used to repeat weeks if i found them hard so maybe do that! Sometimes i would do the same week a few times in a row and others i would more straight on. We are both due AF the same day so fingers massively crossed!!

@BeyondOverTheMoon Sorry to hear you and your partner are out this month! Fingers crossed for next :)

@Louise190 I've no idea what it means but that is a lovely chart! hopefully it's good news :)

@Mimi91 I remember you from the May bus! How's charting the temp going - i'm tempted to try next cycle if OPKs don't do the trick for me this time around.

@mrssunshinexxx I've had the same problem with my two apps so i'm doing OPKs and trying to DTD every second day...missed yesterday though due to two day hangover boo

@Chasni Congratulations :) :) :)

@flossy12 I have two apps that give me different dates too so just going to OPK this week and hope that it narrows it down for me - i'm fairly certain when it is from other symptoms but who knows!

@limesoda Good luck - just take a break and start afresh when you're ready! I do think multiple apps can mess with your head and actually be counter productive, stopping you listening to your body. When you're less stressed and diabetes a bit better then maybe things will go easier :)

@mumofbun hi cycle buddy! :)
Yeah I am going to carry on. I'm going to repeat week 2 I think... though I must say this rain is putting me off!

@lewk sorry af has arrived :(

@mumofbun the more I look into it the more it appears people have it, for some it's totally normal and means nothing and for some it's the total opposite so just going to get checked out just in case but it's always nice to hear from a fellow spotter. Due af tomorrow, still not taking any tests until I'm late because I can't look at another negative right now.
My spotting has been so different this month but I'm trying not to look into anything because it could mean something or nothing and if I get my Hope's up the disappointment will be so much worse.
Welcome to the bus and hope you get your BFP this cycle!!

@mumofbun haha 2 day hangovers are not fun!
I missed yesterday due to migraine and asleep for 8pm!

More annoyed I missed love island than dtd

@Treaclepie19

Rain is one of the things that is the hardest about running! But if you can get through it then you can be one of those people who runs rain or shine :P I could never get into it personally

@Stilltobeseen

I would def say if it concerns you to talk to the GP about it i just know it's not always a bad thing...what cycle are you on?

@mrssunshinexxx

I missed love island too

Just did an OPK and only a very faint line - i'm wondering if i missed my positive as i only did one test on Sunday. That was the strongest line i've had but still not stronger than the control...

@mumofbun yea, I'm hoping mine is nothing to worry about just looking for some peace of mind if I'm honest. I'm only on cycle #2 although I'm really calling it #1.5 because last month we did try but not to the same extent as this round. I've been tracking my af for about 2 years now and I'm 28/29 day cycle to the day so if I'm a few days late I'll be testing then but fully expecting it to show tomorrow.
Only time will tell

@Stilltobeseen

Fingers crossed for you!!

What i was going to say was if you're a few cycles in and its concerning you, definitely get an appointment for a chat! It doesn't hurt to let the gp know you're trying early doors as then they will know for sure how long it's been if you go to them later on (hopefully neither of us need to do that and get BFPs this cycle!)

@mumofbun I really don't fancy it today... a light shower maybe but this is ridiculous 😂

I watched love island and managed to dtd 😁
#showoff

Running round doing jobs this morning and now it's time to get my 3yo 😴

@mumofbun

Did you not dtd on sat or sun?

@Treaclepie19 glorious sunshine where i am but still won't be running :P walk at lunch and then a class tonight though!

you are showing off - i'm hoping to catch up with love island at lunch and dtd tonight haha

@mrssunshinexxx dtd Saturday but not Sunday or Monday. Was aiming for every second day :(

@mrssunshinexxx also did on Thursday which according to flo is in my fertile period but i think it's not as i'm sure ovulation is tomorrow...but then the opks are confusing me so who knows

@SLT90
@fancyfuchsia

Hi I am due to test around the same time as you guys i'm approx 9DPO. I'm going to wait until the 17th when AF/BFP is due. I've bought some tests they are sat in the cupboard calling me!

I've been feeling a bit nauseous / headachey / tired / thirsty / bloated and crampy - basically all the symptoms! Real or imagined. I'm trying to spot things that are out of the ordinary for me. Rather than just being hypersensitive and I have had a heightened sense of smell for things that I wouldn't normally notice like a banana or rice cakes? Someones deodorant in the shop when they walked past.

I also geekily asked my tarot cards if I am preggers - and the reading was kind of confusing ha

Hi ladies! So I'm confused! My period finished on Wednesday. According to Fitbit, Period Tracker and Flo apps I'm due to ovulate tomorrow.
However, I had lots of egg white cm on Saturday and the usual ovulation twinges that night. I've had some cm this morning and an awful headache but I've just used an opk and it's negative. Now I'm thinking I ovulated on Saturday, which would have been 4 days early! We dtd on Thursday and Sunday afternoon so I'm hoping it's enough if I have missed my window.... 😕

I guess I'll just use opk's for the next few days just in case I do still ov tomorrow but the levels just haven't been picked up yet...

I'm guessing it's negative because the test line is too faint 🤷‍♀️

@mumofbun if ovulation is tomorrow can you dtd today and tomorrow that will cover you ?

@mrssunshinexxx I was planning to but I'm not sure now if I ovulated early 😕 I'll still dtd anyway but I don't know if it's now too late. It'll be fun trying anyway 😂
