May bus cont....

[Paddypaws91]

Hi everyone

The 'May bus' thread is overflowing, here's a fresh new thread 👍

Keep the BFPs coming 😍

[Lauraloop1516]

@mrssunshinexxx I got mine 11dpo. Good luck!

[Lauraloop1516]

I agree @squiff70 - you can't get a false positive and frer are the best available. If it really is gone when you try again I think it means it was a chemical - but hopefully you'll have another bfp with a frer. You're still in until AF arrives!

[tisonlymeagain]

Yeah test in a few days @squiff70 if no AF appears because even with the ultra-sensitive IC, I think people still get negatives until a few days part AF is due.

[tisonlymeagain]

6dpo here in the longest 2WW EVER! This stage last cycle I felt all hormonal, sore boobs, cramps etc etc but so far nothing. Which I am quite pleased about to be fair, as they last two weeks and it dragged me down a bit.

[Tamalama]

I'm either 4 or 5dpo and the tww is driving me insane! Symptom spotting so much. I'm on holiday at the moment, although we fly back tomorrow, so it's a good distraction, but I know I'll be obsessing as soon as we get back, especially as it's a long back holiday weekend so I won't even have work to keep me occupied on Monday. 😕

[Squiff70]

Afternoon,

I did a pink dye HPT this mornig with FMU as AF is due today. BFN. Devastated. I went back to bed after and slept for another three hours as I couldn't face the day.

[tisonlymeagain]

Sorry to hear that @Squiff70

[Tamalama]

Sorry to hear that @Squiff70 ☹️

[Lauraloop1516]

@squiff70 - I'm so sorry, I was really rooting for you. Spoil yourself today xxx

[mrssunshinexxx]

Sorry @Squiff70 how many months have you been trying x

[Squiff70]

Two cycles, but had a chemical in March and again now. Starting to think something is wrong with me.

[flossy12]

@Squiff70 it's probably more common than you think, especially because people who aren't TRC wouldn't even notice a chemical pregnancy

Don't worry too much, maybe just go to a drop in clinic to talk to someone x

[mrssunshinexxx]

Can you go and perhaps get a scan or some tests with your doctor x

Hi there, jumping on the new thread. I was on the old one but disappeared after AF appeared.

Happy to see so many BFPs but sad to see some people are still not there (@Squiff70 keep your head up, we're here for you)!

I'm now around 6 dpo (@tisonlymeagain seems like our cycles are right in sync). Flo had me ovulating day 13 but fitbit had me as day 14 and that day i had cramps and EWCM so i'm going with that. Might get ovulation tests for next cycle if i need to but from all my tracking i think Flo seems to always have me a day early. This is cycle 5 for us and i said i wouldn't worry until cycle 6 so fingers crossed.

[Charlotte9876]

I'm so sorry @Squiff70 I Hope next month brings some better luck for you. Take care of yourself xxx

[wannabebump]

I've been lurking on the May bus...fairly regular cycles between 28-32 days for the past 5 months after stopping BC, but a blood test last month showed I hadn't ovulated. today I'm officially "late". I had a positive OPK last Friday though (accidentally picked up OPK instead of IC), and sore boobs and cramps for 4 days. Now driving myself crazy despite a negative IC yesterday and this morning. I've held it together fairly well but today someone asked if I was the girl who'd had the baby and was now back at work because I'm looking fab. No idea how I managed to stop my bottom lip trembling. On the verge of a full on crying and chocolate session I think 🙁 sorry, had to blurt it all out xx

[Savvysaz]

Well looks like my line didn’t really exist although it was a pink line. I’ve been spotting past two days since that test and I’m pretty certain it’s the start of AF so I’m just waiting now for proper CD1 to jump on the June bus properly. I just hope June is my month!

[mrssunshinexxx]

How's everyone feeling ?
I'm 7dpo and going nuts but planning on not testing and just waiting to see if af arrives on the 30th or not I feel like seeing negative test would be worse than af arriving

[mumofbun]

@mrssunshinexxx

I’m the same! Think I’m 8 dpo and just want the wait to be over! Felt a bit funny this morning but had my breakfast late so who knows!

Due AF between the 29th and 31st (both apps are different and my ewcm was a day after them so who knows what’s going on) so planning to wait until at least the 31st before getting hopeful...I guess I’m only just on the May bus!

[flossy12]

9dpo today and getting twitchy fingers due to the bag of 10 IC I have in the bathroom 😅😂 unfortunately OH is at work now all day and wants to test together so that's out of the question

ExDP and his girlfriend are due their baby today (unplanned) so feeling a little down/annoyed about that 🤔

[tisonlymeagain]

I am 7dpo (ash) today, no symptoms of anything really. No pregnancy signs, no AF signs which is totally different to last cycle when I had ALL the symptoms. My right boob is starting to ache though and that’s normally a sign of AF approaching in about a week which is on schedule. Temps went up again on my BBT chart this morning.

Catching up….

@mumofbun Flo is only as good as the data you put in and obviously your cycle length can fluctuate so if you’re not lucky this month and you want to be more accurate, you could try OPK’s and/or temping.

Hi @wannabebumpHope you had your chocolate session and perked yourself up a bit. Don’t worry about blurting it out, it’s what we’re all here to support each other with.

@Savvysaz Has AF properly arrived now?

@mrssunshinexxxI know what you mean, I am desperate to test. I will probably do it on Sunday, will no doubt be too early and will be negative but strangely seeing a negative test doesn’t bother me, it’s AF arriving that sends me spiralling.

@flossy12 Ha I’d be naughty and test anyway. I’m always going to secretly test without DP, mainly because I actually don’t want him to see my disappointment when it’s negative.

[mrssunshinexxx]

If I last until my period comes/is due it will be a miracle

I have 100% felt strange twinges etc

I will definitely test with out Dh as I have a nice way of announcing planned

[mumofbun]

@tisonlymeagain

Yeah I know that I just find it strange that the two apps give me different dates when they’ve had the same data - will be trying opks next month to make sure but pretty sure I ovulate the day after Flo says (which is the day Fitbit tells me)!

[Lauraloop1516]

So AF is due today - I got my bfp 11dpo and I've been on eggshells ever since expecting it to suddenly end. While I've have period-like cramps yesterday, still nothing. All tests seem to concur! I can't believe it. Fingers crossed for you all!

[tisonlymeagain]

@mumofbun I am doing both charting and OPKs and Fertility Friend and Glow app both said different ovulation dates. I'm using my best judgement to work it out for myself!

Congratulations @Lauraloop1516!
