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 Was it 9 DPO you had your positive last month too? Are you freaking out?

What do you reckon? I reckon I've missed main surge yesterday and that's what's left xxx

@Hannah1925 was it stronger yesterday?

@Sophieb15 it was 10dpo so a day earlier...and hugely! I'm so scared to be excited, but I'm glad I know if it happens again I will push drs to check me out but hoping it doesn't! Want it to stick so I can get excited! Cue testing each day to check it's still there 🙈🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
How are you??

@Hannah1925 Did you DTD over the weekend if you did your covered.

@Abi58 Congrats first BFP of the group I think you should try wait until Wed to test again rather than tomorrow It is sure to be stronger then as it HCG doubles every 24 hrs. If it hasn't darkened then you should go to docs for a blood test.

i'm good just bored in work. Sore boobs and increased CM but not reading into it as boobs were sore too last month and had CM. I'm hoping its just my progesterone rising.

What were your symptoms this month?

@LatteLover12 You have to see a positive in it or you will drive yourself crazy

Congratulations @Abi58!
I think I will do an IC on Wednesday at 8dpo

@Sophieb15 i was on the edge as due anywhere 29th-1st but after ov think it's more likely 29th. But hopefully the first of many 😁🤞🏻

@Sophieb15 that's a good idea! Stop me being so intense about it all lol.
Reckon they would do one if I asked? A few on here have tried and been told no :( hoping they would after chemical last month to put my mind at rest.
Oh no hope it gets busier for you to distract you a bit :)
Sound promising though!

Last month I had extremely sore nipples from 7dpo and felt sick around the same time and it started to get bad on 9/10dpo and that's why I tested at 10dpo. Sticky Cm after ov.

This month I thought I was out as nipples were fine although they might be starting to get sore today was a bit sensitive when brushed against earlier but not bad. Cm sticky cp high and hard (felt bigger yesterday which was odd). Last few days bloated a lot and stomach all over he place (tmi) one min loose next not constipated but further that way 🤦🏻‍♀️ and very gassy 🙈 with bubbly tummy. Cramps and twinges mostly to the sides. What I can only describe as when you get butterflies in your stomach but in my vagina 🙈 and a few sharp twinges there as well. ...all minor but I suppose a lot when put it together but I actually thought I was out they were all that minor.

In shock 🥰

@MissMooMoo thank you 😁 🤞🏻 for you

@Sophieb15

Oh and yesterday I cried ...like full on cried because of a bath 😂 had had a stressful day so tbh could. Have been that 😂

@Abi58 I know if I asked my doc she would def do it. I don't think they can refuse a HCG level blood test. Try wait until wed to do another test though and hopefully it will just be a lot darker and put your ind at ease
All morning I have a dull stabbing pain centre but more to my right side but I get very Gassy around O and before AF so dunno is it just that. Oh I hate the TWW. I've another 7 days before I can test if AF doesn't arrive.

@Sophieb15 oh that's good to know! Did you speak to the gp or reception? Wondering if I should book myself an app for Friday as I think I want one anyway to put my mind at rest otherwise I will be spending stupid money on tests 🙈

All sounds very positive though 🤞🏻 you're nearly there 😁

Morning ladies. I was giving up this month and thinking I wasn't going to ovulate. My last 2 cycles I have ovulated on CD18. I get period type cramps and pain in an ovary.
Today I'm on CD21 and have woken up to lots and lots of EWCM and I've just done my OPK and I'm very nearly there. Will test again this evening.

Another question.

My husband has been taking Fluoxetine for the last 5 years, a low dose of 10mg increasing to 20mg recently. I have read that this could cause problems with fertility.
Do any of you have any knowledge of this? What we can do to improve this etc

Xx

@Sophieb15 I did get every pg symptom under the sun last month... tender boobs, cramps, felt dizzy & sick... I've told myself I'd must've been all in my head though. Today I have a twingey almost shooting pain in my left side (similar to what I'd describe as ovulation pain?!)... very weird. It's been there all morning. I've just scrolled up & read your later post and it seems you have it too?! Hopefully it's a good sign!

OMG @Abi58 Soooo exciting!!! Fingers crossed over the next few days it'll get stronger! Shame u can't post the pic, I'd like to see! Keep us updated won't u! First BFP of the July group!!

@LatteLover12 Sorry to hear that. It's truely shit. Definitely get the drinks in and indulge on holiday!

@MissMooMoo Make sure u let us know how u get on!

@Hannah1925 You may have done. It's definitely happened to me before. You've been DTD tho haven't u so should be ok!

@Mumof2boys18 That's good news!!! Get BD! I don't know about your husbands meds sorry! X

@mumof1hants thank you!! I'm cautiously excited 😁🥰 I'll try and post the pic later :)

Yes the pains sound promising! I have had side twinges the last few days 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Mumof2boys18 sorry not sure about the meds, maybe get him to speak to his gp as they would be best to advise? But definitely time to get busy for you 😁

@Abi58 I have everything crossed they are a good sign now!!

@Abi58 how did I miss your faint line!!! Congrats! Fingers crossed for you. Xxz I didn
n't get to do a test yesterday as was on holiday and ran out. It was the usually day I get a positive LH surge so hoping so.

@mumof1hants hopefully. Done it every day since Friday but maybe we've over done it? Will do it one more time todya just incase 😂😂😂 so tired!!

This feed is so uplifting compared to the past 8 months of loneliness and feeling like the only person who isn't getting pregant!!!!! Xxxxx feeling positive xxxx

Oh bless you @Hannah1925! Ids hard when no one knows your trying but it's all you can think about. This place definitely helps me x

@Abi58 It was my GP. Just book a GP appointment and then when your in there get her first to take a pregnancy test explain what happened last month and then ask her to take a blood test to make sure the HCG is rising..

Fingers crossed this is all our months!!!!

@Mumof2boys18 Whoo Loads of BD over the next few days so You will be in our situation then next week.

@mumof1hants My nipples are started to tingle now too oh please AF stay away Ya the stabbing pain now has eased a bit so lets hope it was implantation i have a good bit of CM too today.

need to keep my brain busy for the week how am I going to do it when its quiet in work

Clean office
clean windows
clean coffee machine
look up things to do on holidays
Please help if anyone else can think of other things I can do.

I'm fine at home its just work kills me this is our quietest time

@Hannah1925 looks like you had a good holiday so

This group has really helped me too. Hopefully the chat will be in full force all week to get me through the hardest part of the TWW.

Hi, so I’m new here! Just been reading and trying to learn! This is my first cycle after getting the implant removed, which means I don’t really know where my cycle is at so reading all symptoms 🤦‍♀️ I’m guessing I’m 7-10 DPO
I’m feeling super bloated and gassy which isn’t very normal for me, could this be a symptom for v early on? Really trying not to obsess but really hard!

@Sophieb15 ooo ok I might try and book one for Friday then 😁🤞🏻

Agreed 🤞🏻 it all of our months then we can go through the next stages together!

Aw that sounds like a decent list already! Can I come to your work I'd love a coffee machine. 😁

If you need to keep yourself entertained an the group isn't busy you're welcome to pm me :)

@Hannah1925 it does sound like you had a great holiday 😁

Wow @Abi58 - huge congratulations !!

DH (darling husband) working shifts has made this first cycle a little difficult. My positive OPK was on 21st... the green dots are when we DTD (doing the deed) (19th and 22nd).

Do you think we’re in with a shot this month, or should I just manage my expectations and get it straight in my head that next month is the one? (I don’t want to drive myself mad with high expectations for the next two weeks if there’s little chance).

@wannabemama0812 It only takes once! You e dtd at the right times so 🤞 for you. If it's going to happen it will. I'm in cycle 5 and each month I've hoped and stressed. Learning the hard way now that that's not how it works! I'm trying to be as blasé as I can about it now as difficult as it is I think it's the only way... Good luck
