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

@Abi58 I just had a stabbing pain there too will our bodies ever stop like. hahaha
It's the hormones like progesterone can make your body do anything I know symptoms are similar and every pregnancy is different but I'm only 5 DPO so I think feeling anything is a bit early. Then again I got my surge Sat morning at 7am I could have Ovulated that day rather than the Sunday so I could also be 6 DPO.

I'm going on holiday this weekend 👍👍👍👍👍 perfect hahaha

This is me so far! The days are dragging and I haven't even OV yet!

@NLouise123 EVERYDAY [SHOCK] give yourself a break hahaha

I've been quiet on here as just waiting for ovulation next week, but think I may ovulate quite early this month. TMI I know, but I'm monitoring by cervix position and CM rather than venturing on to OPKs and both have changed loads since yesterday (5-7 days earlier than expected) Maybe that's why I had no success last cycle! I'm not technically in the fertile week yet. Last month we waited until fertile week and then DTD regularly. Luckily this month we started as soon as AF fecked off 😂

@SLT90 They say to do every second day once AF is gone and then you should catch it so your sorted. x

@GemSmith738 I use cb connected aswell. 2nd month for me. I don't use any other opks with it though. How you finding it?

@Abi58 cb connect is a digital OPK that connects to your phone via Bluetooth and automatically logs the result as long as your phones Bluetooth is turned on. Quite natty really.

Hoping we're in with a strong chance this month as we've managed to bd the last 3 days in a row and with today being O day I'm 🤞 Only time will tell I guess...

@Islandermum sorry to hear of your loss. I had a mc in Feb. Such a horrible time. Take care of yourself hun x

@mommato3 that's good to hear! I had 6 flashing faces June which was getting frustrating so will see how I go in July x

@GemSmith738 Last month I started testing when it told me to and got 3 grey days then 5 flashing smileys before my solid smiley. This month I refused to obsess so didn't actually start when it said to, I waited 5 days expecting the first day to be high but it was grey! But the next day I got a solid smiley. So bonus only had to use 2 sticks! Good luck x

@mommato3 I was thinking of doing that too! What cycle are you on?

@GemSmith738 I'm currently on my 5th cycle. Hoping it's my last but not holding my breath!!!

@mommato3 same! I know it's normal within 12 months but I think I'm loosing my mind, probs not helping either!

Hi, I hope it’s ok for me to jump on, I stopped the pill start of April so really hoping I get my first period soon so we can start trying :) been tracking my BBT and using ovulation sticks but my insides must still be trying to figure things out 🙈

It’s hard to keep track of this thread, hello to all the people who’ve joined in the last 5 pages or so 😂.

I’m on CD8 today, yet to DTD this month. DD is having a pretty rough time of sleeping atm so we’re both knackered and watching love island is all we have time for each night😂🙈. Going to try tonight, although I don’t think I ovulate until CD14 ish but better get some practice in.

With conceiving DD we DTD every day for a week or so around ovulation and that was hard, I can’t imagine how we’d do that now with a not very restful 16m old!

I am impatient already despite not even ovulating yet, I’d forgotten how long your cycles feel once ttc.

Omg... 40ish posts since this morning! I can't keep up!

Hi to all those that have joined! Lovely to have u!! More the merrier and let's hope we get loads of bfps in the next few weeks!

I'm 6dpo and have had a few glasses of wine tonight. It was needed after a tough working week, including one 14hr day. Glad it's the weekend!

@Ithoughtyouwere hate so admit it but love island is what's getting me through the TWW!! 😂🙈

I have zero symptoms and I know it probably means nothing at this stage. I feel a bit more chilled this month than last. Maybe it's just due to the sunnier weather!!?

Hope everyone else is good?!

@Abi58 have to say... you've got some stamina girl!!!!! Wish I had your enthusiasm! X

For anyone thats interested, I find this calculator quite informative. You input ur data and it tells you when is best to test.

What's your thoughts? When are you testing?

6 days of Pineapple ✔️

@mumof1hants no testing for me until the 1st of July 😁😁 are u going to test early 🙈

@Ithoughtyouwere love island is literally the best show at the moment 😁😁

I’m off for a spa day this afternoon dinner and drinks.

I do have a symptom boobs are starting to get sore. Which is a AF symptom so I’m feeling a bit drained that I could be out again but trying to be positive 🤞🏼

@Sophieb15 nooo I'm not testing early. AF due around the 29th so I'll be 2days late when I test. Next week is going to be excruciating!

Sore boobs can also be a sign of pg don't forget! U never know!! I'm 7DPO today & everything smells gross to me.... making breakfast was the worst! Hoping I'm not just symptom spotting!

Spa day sounds lovely!!! Have an amazing time x

@mumof1hants it’s very hard not to symptom spot when our bodies are gearing up for pregnancy each month before AF.
Oh stop next week is going to be a killer for me too the min I’m back at work Mon I’ll literally have to plan things to keep me busy in work to take mind off it!
I’m hoping for no backache this week because I’ve had that 5/6 days before AF the last 3 months.

Thanks a massage will do me good. I’d 2 glasses of wine last night and will be drinking a bit tonight too maybe 4/5 😁

CD 16 and still not positive OPK ahhhhh! I'm on holiday for the weekend and wanted it to happen because we'll be BD lots haha! Don't want to over do it at the wrong time if you know what I mean. They'll be nothing left x

Wow lots of chat! I am 4dpo today.
I went out with 2 NCT friends last night,one has a 3 month old and the other is pregnant so there was lots of TTC chat!
I have no willpower and will probably test at 8dpo and every morning until my period arrives 😄.
I got a very clear positive with ds at 8dpo

@Sophieb15 yeah my works quite busy atm so it's ok but I think next weekend will be hard... AF will be due so I'll be reading into everything. Just hope she doesn't arrive!! Or if she's going to she arrived on time & doesnt keep me waiting!!
It's bad but every month I get my hopes up & almost convice myself I must be pg. does everyone do that?

@Hannah1925 totally know what u mean about overdoing it... I think we've done that previously, trying to DTD every day then when o day comes we've had enough! Hope u get ur positive OPK tomorrow then! Enjoy ur time away xx

Welcome @Islandermum so sorry to hear about your loss 💕

@Sophieb15 I'm thinking the same, I got 2 days and last pos was the Friday morning so could have been Friday afternoon instead of sat but I'm assuming say so 7dpo to stop me testing even earlier just in case 😂
How are you feeling?
The feeling down there was really odd hoping it's a sign. Although feeling a bit down as last month I had sore nipples by now and nothing, they're fine 😩
(Ttc is nuts who thought I'd be upset to not have sore nipples?!)
Enjoy your spa and dinner 😁

@Hannah1925 enjoy your holiday!! There will always be something left don't you worry 😁

@NLouise123 I'm finishing myself wishing my life away, I want to be ovulating so we can dtd then I want it to be 2 weeks later so I can test and repeat 🙈

@SLT90 good luck! Do you track anything else? I get ewcm for a week before ov

@mommato3 oooo that's high tech! I'll have to have a google! 🤞🏻 for you :)

Welcome @PeanutButter19. I stopped the pill mid pack mid March and had my first period beginning of May. Has your tracking indictcated you might have ovulated yet? 🤞🏻 you get your period soon

@Ithoughtyouwere you do need that chill time! I'm the same I'm sure my period (withdrawal bleed on pill) seemed to be always here 😩 now it seems to be forever!

@mumof1hants same here but with cider , 7dpo as well :)

@mumof1hants 😂😂😂 thanks 😁
Yes that link is really good!

@MissMooMoo wow you got a positive at 8fpo? Mine last month was 10 so I'm trying my best to hold out til after that but will be hard because I know last month it showed then 🙈

@Abi58 hahaha yes! Well will try anyway! Only got one ovulation test left.

@mumof1hants haha yep ah well. May as well Enjoy it!

Xxx

1DPO here. I won't be testing before the 6th unless I have any symptoms that make me confident of a bfp...

Wish me luck waiting a whole 14 days!!!!
