July bus

[mumof1hants]

Anyone else want to jump on board the July bus? AF has just arrived for me after being 2 days late!

Anyway here's my info:

TTC: #2
Cycle: 3
Age: 37
CD01
AF/BFP due: 3rd July

Hoping this is our lucky month! Fingers crossed for everyone x

@mommato3 you're doing well! Great to hear about your house and it will keep you occupied which is great 😁

Does it have to get used to your cycle or does it just test levels? You might ov later? Do you normally ov that time /regular - anything that could have altered it like stress if you are regular?

@Lj02 don't give up hope you may have had some but not as much as you have now and it was close timing. When is he back? I get ewcm for almost a week before ov.

@Ohana6419 welcome and 🤞🏻 for you!
Sorry to hear you had a rough time last month, hope this ones a lot better and luckier for you

@Lauralozzle this month mine was positive for just over 24 hours but last month was only a few hours - not sure if it's usually consistent for people (whether it's worth knowing) but if you're curious why not just do it 😁

@EC418 what cd are you on and do you know when you usually ov? It can predict up to 10 high fertile days I think so it doesn't sound odd

@Sophieb15 oh no! But it sounds like you had a great time??!

thats sounds like enough so I wouldn't worry 😁

Don't worry nothing can affect or touch the bay until 5/6 weeks when the umbilical connects - when I had my early miscarriage last month dr said it was just not viable it wouldn't be because I smoked/drank:/did an activity/caffeine etc so don't be hard on yourself it won't have any effect, it will prob have a positive one as you had fine and relaxed 😁(dress wise not as in didn't dance 😂) wow sounds amazing I would love to see her!

Haha yes no testing til we are late! 😁🤞🏻

@Ginfizz90 that sounds great! What cd do you normally ovulate?

You can get up to 10 I think just depends. I didn't get a static this month but used along side cheap one so know I ovulated (plus had temp rise) I think I'm odd and my fmu is weaker as did a cheap at night and pos did a cheap with cb fmu next day and flashing and strong line but not positive - 2nd wee of the day cheap was positive again til that night.

@NLouise123 that's exciting! Will you be tracking anything opks etc?

I usually ovulate between cd 18-22 so not too long to go! 😊

Feeling positive anyway, hope my husband doesn't feel too tired on the static smile day 😂

@Ginfizz90 just pounce him I sure he'll find the energy 😁 if not give him a coffee or redbull to park him up 😁

@Abi58 yes good time that made me feel 100 times better thanks 😁 good to know it won’t affect baby in TWW.

@Ginfizz90 I wore mine out and never got in BD O day 🙈

@Sophieb15 you're welcome :)
That's amazing! 😂

@Abi58 @Sophieb15

I literally just say to my husband this is my fertile week so we need to have sex as much as we can!

Blunt but don't know how else to go about it!? 🤷‍♀️

@Ginfizz90 I don't tell mine but we're quite regular anyway 😂 my hormones around that time make me more horny so I pounce him 😂 he hasn't complained yet haha

@Lauralozzle It is isn't it. We don't have a choice as there's 7 of us in a 3 bed, 4 children in 1 bedroom 🤦‍♀️ Ouch!!! I'm sure it will be. Meanwhile....... hehe!

@Abi58 Thank you. I believe the cb connected us the same as the cb digital and just tests levels. I think it's rigged 😂😂 I'm kind of expecting to still get the 3 grey lines (no detection) before the flashing smily. We shall see however.

It will as soon as the application goes through etc. You know what they say, new house new baby??!! My cycles have been a bit all over since my mc in Feb so it's difficult to know really. That's why I started with the cb - just to try pinpoint what was going on. I'm hoping it won't be too far away but I'll just keep jumping on him til the smily goes solid 😂 💜

@MockingJay27 I tried OPKs last month but stopped once I thought I'd ovulated the first time- took a few days to realise that I hadnt, so this time I'll keep using them until my temps have increased as well. Such a learning curve!

@mommato3 🤞🏻 it's soon! :) I agree new house new baby 😁 we've not long moved 😁 hehe

@Ginfizz90 I try not to tell him but then if he refuses or uses the too tired way out then I tell him I’m in my fertile window! Not that that helped Sunday night 🙈 but we were after BD the mon wed fri and sat but the sun was O day so that ended in an argument 😤 and BD didn’t happen and he was on nights the Monday. I’m hoping we got enough done before O.

I think next month I’m just going to try the day of static smiley day after and day after that and it will only be three times but right bang on when we are supposed to!!

Welcome to @Ohana6419

@mommato3 great to hear you're sounding positive & OH is on board too. Hopefully you'll get that high fertility indication soon. I also have fingers crossed for us all. What cycle are you?

@Lj02 How annoying. Shift work sucks. I've told my OH to wake me when he gets in at 1am to DTD.... I'm optimistic that it may happen. I think you're still in with a shot though!

@Lauralozzle I usually stop testing after a positive. Mainly because I feel satisfied and just forget!!

@EC418 I've not used a digital before but I hear lots of people say the get a few days of flashing smilies... hope u get ur static soon.

@Sophieb15 concert sounds fab! Honestly, don't worry about what you do before BFP... when I got pg with dc1 I had a massive blow out a few days before. I was then worried but the doctor reassured me that it would be too early to have any affect. I was really worried because I was about 5 weeks when I got the surprise!!
I'm sure the 3x will be enough too. Sperm can live up to a week so definitely in with a good chance!

@Ginfizz90 I might get a digital next month if no luck this month. It does seem a lot easier. I totally tell my oh when we need to DTD. He's always willing 🤣

@NLouise123 Ah the dreaded TWW! I'm 4dpo and it's not too bad atm but I think next week will be much harder!!
I didn't drink in the last TWW and the drowned my sorrows when AF arrived 😔 I've been invited on 2 nights out the next 2 weekends tho... wondering if I should go to take my mind off it?!

@Abi58 I like your red bull tactic! Must remember that!!

Hi ladies can I join?

TTC (trying to conceive) #2 ( DD will be 4 on Sunday and had one loss at 11+6 in 2017)
Age 32

I'm not sure how all of this works, DD was somewhat of a surprise and I’ve never actively tried before!
Had my Nexplanon implant removed yesterday which has been in for 2.5 years so I’ve had no cycle for that time so no idea when AF is due or when my cycle starts etc! Anyone that has any idea feel free to let me know!

Hi and welcome @Cookiebear87! Glad u joined us! I've no experience with implants but I'm sure someone will! X

Hi all just catching up.
I've been using OPKs for few days now. I know they are still negative but what do you think? Xx

@Mumof2boys18 if I'm perfectly honest they all look about the same. Mine can literally change from very faint to very dark in 24 hrs tho so keep testing!! When do u expect to ovulate? X

@mumof1hants I've got 3 apps. 2 says Saturday and 1 says Friday.
Im pretty good at spotting when I'm
About to ovulate. The aching is unreal lol. My right side is aching as I type but it's been worse x

@Mumof2boys18 I bet it's just around the corner then! Wish I had signs like that! Let us know what the OPK is like tomorrow! X

@Cookiebear87 welcome I am TTC my second also this is cycle 5 for me. I had my implant out on the 10th Jan and had a 3 day bleed 3 days after then waited until I got AF to properly start trying! It can happen straight away though so just DTD anyway. My body went a bit mad after getting it out felt nauseous for a couple of weeks and then have had really bad O pain up until this month it eased off a lot this month just a bit of pressure and stitch like pain. I am currently 3 DPO and ask me anything you want because I was in no mans land when I got mine removed I didn’t know what was happening.
They say if you don’t get AF 4 weeks after removal to take a test and then take a test each week just in case. I know it can take 3 months for some ppl to get a period after implant. I had a bleed every month and I had mine just under 3 years they weren’t regular though it was just between 28-36 days. X

@mumof1hants 😁 gives you wings 😂

Welcome @Cookiebear87 sorry to hear about your loss. Everyone is different so you could have your af regularly now or could be a while. Best thing I did was start using opks so see if I had an LG surge (indicates ovulation) af is usually 14 days after that. It's just a way to monitor if you're body is regulating 🤞🏻 you get your cycle back ASAP! (I came off the pill but similar after effects)

@Mumof2boys18 none look positive to me yet! When do you normally ovulate?
Closest is your 0.45 one on cd15 ...could have had a surge overnight cd15/16? Last month my surge lasted a couple of hours this month 24 hours so could have been a shorter surge?
Sorry if you've already said but are you doing anything else to track? Temp? Something that will confirm if you have or not?

@Abi58 last couple of cycles I've ovulated on CD18.
Last month I used CB digi ovulation tests.
This month just normal ones.
I am quite good at spotting when I'm
ovulating. Will keep testing and hopefully catch it x

@Mumof2boys18 ahthats good 🤞🏻 it happens soonfor you 😁

Why am I laying in bed thinking I can feel twinges... I'm only 4dpo!! It's rediculous! I need help! X

@mumof1hants same I've been get twinges and back pain and feel so sick...4dpo as well 😩
Trying to convince myself it's the hormones so I don't spend all night on google
