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

@Pugmum19 sounds like you're spot on with things already to me! Well as much as you can be! OPKs are good.. they definitely mean you can save a bit of energy for when it really matters! We followed the SMEP plan this month. Have u heard of it? Fingers crossed it'll be successful too. It's got lots of good reviews x

What do we reckon? Darker than this mornings but I'm sure I've already ovulated as I missed yesterday. Do you think I've missed the surge or its about to happen 🤔😂😂

@Hannah1925 tell me again, when do u usually ovulate & what ru on now? Ru temping? X

@mumof1hants no it's not it's saying I've reached my limit I think I put 2 pics up yest so no idea how that's a limit or how it's affecting today 😩 will keep trying!!
I did another ic this afternoon on not very strong wee and it's a better line than this mornings so I'm feeling hopeful but trying not to get too excited just in case 💕

Definitely fingers crossed your smep pays off 🤞🏻

@Hannah1925 it's hard to tell without a progression and poss temping to confirm. You can have several surges. You could still be getting ready for the surge or could have had it. Only thing I can recommend is until they are definitely fading keep dtd

@mumof1hants I usually ovulate today but couldn't test yesterday. Nope I don't temp. Can't decide whether it's the end or start of ovulation. Don't know how much more BD can do 😂

@Abi58 that's so irritating! Amazing it's already cleared though! Tonight I've had a bit of heartburn and got a dull ache down really low... almost like period pains. I'm hoping it's not AF early! 😩

@Hannah1925Just do every other day... much more manageable. A few of my friends have had fertility treatment and docs told them it was better!! Something to do with better quality sperm because they can rejuvenate?!

@Sophieb15 @mumof1hants it wasn't letting me as a pic but I've managed to add one on a new thread. It's call I think I got my bfp if you wouldn't mind just checking I'm not going mad 😂🤞🏻🙈
🤞🏻 for a sticky baby

@mumof1hants it's sounds similar to the cramps I had 🤞🏻💕

@Abi58 I seeeee it!!! 💗💗💗💗

@tiredmoma I'm in Cork 😁 this thread is the best thing ever even if you don't get your BFP there's always someone in the same boat as you to vent to and it's so nice to see all the BFPs

@CBP92 neither of us have a high sex drive, we both work full time so we are always tired and we have a 3 and a half year old so we find it can only happen a night. I had a fight with my OH this month because we didn't BD on CD 16 we only BD cd 8,10,12,14 and 15 I think I ovulated on cd 15 but at the latest cd 16. TTC will drive you crazy 😜

@lonelyonee try the SMEG method google it it's supposed to work! Also I tried the pineapple trick too this month 🙈

@mumof1hants yes the keeping busy really helps we are opposite I have no bother keeping myself busy at the weekend or when I'm at home it's work is my killer!

@Pugmum19 the best thing about OPKs is that once you have confirmed O then at least you can count 14 days and then if you miss your period you have a great chance of getting a BFP xx feel free to ask loads of questions here!! We are TTC our 2nd but didn't really try for the first just let it happen but now on cycle 5 I've learned way more this time 😁

@Abi58 congrats commented on other post too def see a line so fingers crossed 😘😘

@mumof1hants yay thank you 😁 🤞🏻 it gets a bit more defined tomorrow 😁

@Sophieb15 oh wow always wanted to visit!! :)

Ive never heard of the pineapple or smeg method ill have too look it up!!!

@Abi58 what part of the uk are you?

@tiredmoma its SMEP sorry my fault it Sperm meets the egg plan 😁
I tried to do that this month but missed out on the third day in a row 🙈 I did the pineapple tho I cut up a fresh pineapple core and all and ate it for the 6 days after my O it's supposed to help with implantation and I'll try anything if it's going to work 🙈

@Sophieb15 in the midlands (Warwickshire)...furthest away from the sea 😂

I had a look i might do it next month if needed 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I’m also in Northern Ireland 🙈 still waiting on af to return to start ttc.. god damn pill 💊

@PeanutButter19 hi there!! Did you stop contraceptives?

@tiredmoma yes contraceptive pill I stopped start of April had a withdrawal bleed within days and nothing since, odd cramps etc so think it’s going to arrive then doesn’t but I know to expect a wait it’s just frustrating

Morning all, I'd like to hop on the bus please. Af had just arrived ☹️

@mumof1hants @Abi58 here's a pic. Top 2 from Friday. Then next three were yesterday. And bottom one is now. Do you reckon I missed it on Sunday? X

@Tamalama 💕

@Hannah1925 it's hard to tell..do another one or two later and see how they compare? Today's looks similar to the last one yesterday it might dry darker still so could be approaching it or could have been sunday night. Sometimes a surge is a few hours only so it's very possible you could have had it Sunday 🤞🏻 get busy just in case 😁🙈
