September bus

[Sleepyhead11]

Hey, so was a little flakey on August bus because this is so hard, but I like the support and folk with bfps give me hope.

Anyway, I am on cycle is seven now, period due first or second September. But will probably poas end of Aug because I turn into a sucker for punishment the week before.

How are you all doing? Will be happy and sorry to see familiar names back.

I also will disappear for days at a time, which doesn't mean I'm ignoring folk, but finding it too intense.

Love and luck

Would love to hear about this month's lovely distractions

@Sunshine8888 mine vary from 36 days to 42 😩 last month was 39 days but so far ovulation is LATE so I'm in for the long jog this month! It's horrible isn't it.... it feels like a lifetime before I even get to the ovulation big!

@Blossomingflower94 got my fingers crossed for you, now time to sit back and wait!

Cd11 over here and gonna do opk once a day till they start getting a little darker. Still so faint yesterday!

@coastaldreamer Thanks! I tested twice a day at 10am and 3pm. Glad I did because 10am yesterday wasn't quite a +. 3pm was definitely and then I've done one this morning to double check and it's faded again! Would have missed it if I only tested in the morning. Phew!!

Everything crossed for you too. Now the dreaded tww begins!

@Blossomingflower94 what day did you test from? X

Ahhh I hate the TWW, I end up over analysing every twinge and movement in my body 🙄 main thing is we are doing/done all we can and the rest is upto fate

@november90 I didn’t track so I’m not even 100% sure when I ovulated but I had pains and sore boobs and EWCM around then so assuming that was ovulation. The not knowing is horrible though! And I just wish my cycles would be shorter, I’m still waiting for ovulation on the CD when most ladies have finished their cycle and either for tier BFPs or started again - we don’t even get a chance every month ☹️

@Sunshine8888 yes I'm exactly the same! I'm on the August bus and everyone is at the testing point and I'm still trying to figure out ovulation! It's so hard isn't it, the wait is almost torture! I've been using opk this month and I'm almost at my peak... on CD 29, if this isn't my month I'll be looking at October 😩 When are you expecting af?

@november90 well if I ovulated around CD32 I guess it would be around 1 September! But I think I missed some of my fertile week thinking I was in the TWW ☹️ I’m so worried I’m going to go past 45 days with no AF and no bfp! The pill has really messed my cycles up

@GloriaMaximus aww no! 😫 aww bless you! Have they been getting darker or lighter? X

@costaldreamer I have 27 day cycles so started from day 10. Didn't even have a faint line until day 12 though.

@Sunshine8888 oh bless you! The pill really effected me too :( after having my son 2.5 years ago I never went back on it because it took almost a year for my periods to even out to almost normal! 😩

@blossomingflower94 hmm interesting you say that about not having a faint line until then. As my cycles are 27-30 days. And I took my first one yesterday at cd 5 (I know it's early) and had quite a good although faint line! So I'm wondering if I ovulate really early and have been missing it? Or do some people have a bit of lh throughout cycle? Xx

@CarolineKate Theres a really good article on the OVIA app that explains about how different people develop LH across the month. Some have none and then spike in one day and others slowly climb to an adequate level for the follicle to burst. Might be that you ovulate early or you might just be the latter of the two examples :)

@blossomingflower94 great thank you for that will look it up! 😁

@november90 oh no I really hope it doesn’t take that long, I’ll be going to the doctors if still irregular after 6 months just to check I am ovulating as that is something I’m very concerned about

@flossy12 they aren't doing either..just staying the same 😫

@GloriaMaximus aww 😫 a couple look close to peak there but not quite that must be so annoying sweetie I feel for you xx

@flossy12 at risk of sounding stupid..what would peak be numbers wise? (Almost sent an 'x' 😅)

I have 27 day cycles and CB said to start testing on CD7 if that helps anyone. Weirdly though putting this months info in flo has made next months cycle increase to 30 days! My three apps are now a week apart for af so that is going to be interesting! Although of course hoping for a non appearance!

Hi everyone! So the bottom two are from today... the second to last at approx 10:45 and the bottom at 4:45. Do you think it's lightened and i e likely peaked? Because to me it def looks a bit lighter! I will try and test again at about 8 :)

@GloriaMaximus tbh I'm not sure 😅 don't think mine measures it by numbers 🤷🏼‍♀️what app do you use?

@flossy12 it's premom

I tried googling it but just got lost in a maze of completely unrelated information

@november90 they are definitely getting darker fingers crossed 🤞🏼

Ahh @GloriaMaximus not heard of that one

What do you use @flossy12 ?
