October bus

[Raizelrea]

Haven't seen an October bus yet so I figured I'd start one as AF showed up today for me.

TTC 1
Cycle 3
Age 31
AF due around 5 October

7 October is my birthday so would not be opposed to a bit of a present in the form of a BFP 😄

Not sure yet if I'll do anything special this cycle other than taking follic acid and DTD, contemplating buying Clear Blue OPKs though I'm hoping to stay as relaxed as possible (completely failed at that last cycle and obsessed about everything so hopefully I got that out of my system...)

Relief!! Finally got our BFP this morning after our EP in July. Fingers crossed for all of you waiting to test! AF due on Monday so ours is a v faint line which will hopefully get stronger over the next few days 🤞🤞

Congratulations @LisaxMarie 😍 brilliant news! Should definitely get stronger, will you test again? I've done about 5 so far to watch the progression 😶

Thank you @Doubl! Yes thinking I’ll do CB digital on Saturday. Hubby wants me to do it today because he’s super excited and wants to know how far along we are! Well I thought I had more symptoms this month and that explains it! 😊

@Doubl how far along are you? Xx

@LisaxMarie bless him, totally understandable, it makes it seem more real when it's written on the test 😊 definitely your body telling you then! With symptoms, I should've known I was but I always chalk it down to something else to save disappointment! I'm around 5 weeks but with a late ovulation, I'm not 100%! Considering an early scan, how far are you? xx

Yes I was purposely trying to downplay symptoms to save getting my hopes up! By my lmp it puts me at 3+4 I believe! Ahh that may be a good idea. I have to go for early scans due to the EP anyway so I’d have to have a scan at 6 weeks to make sure it’s implanted in the correct place this time xx

Congrats!

Im currently 8dpo. Anyone else with me? Xxx

@LisaxMarie I think it's easier to stay in denial! Oh lovely, they're still so tiny, fingers crossed everything goes perfectly for you, not too far away from a 6 week scan xx

@Hannah1925 when will you begin testing? (If you haven't already) x

@Doubl I'm not too sure. When did you get your first bfp?

Anyone else testing end of next week. I have 3 different apps and each days I'm due AF in 8/9/10 days respectively

@Hannah1925 I tested from 6dpo (don't know what I was expecting) and only got the most minuscule squinter on 10dpo. 11dpo was a clear line x

@Doubl I might start tomorrow then hehe. What tests did you use

I've wasted so much money on pregnancy tests over the last year oops

@Hannah1925 it's so addictive! I used an IC on the squinter! Got the clear line on a FRER, still got some to use, I was over prepared 🤦‍♀️

@Doubl I bet you feel amazing though! Wish I was pregnant! How many months have you ttc? Xx

Thank you @Doubl! I started test at 7dpo with bfn until today at 11dpo then I got a faint line. Fingers crossed for everyone testing xxx

@Doubl when do you think you’ll be due? Xxx

@Hannah1925 I'm still here with you! 🙌 good luck if you test tomorrow, I'm trying to keep them out of the house but I might buy one to test with on Saturday morning... depending on symptoms/ temperature tomorrow. I am scared of the prospect of a cp though...

@SMiles14 do you have any symptoms?

I haven't got anything at the moment. Fingers crossed. I usually spot from now up until my period and I haven't started spotting yet... So fingers crossed

@Hannah1925 sorry I missed your message! Yup if in frustrated now then you must be really frustrated bless you! Lots and lots of baby dust to you my love! I'm not feeling anything really either just sore boobs and bloated gassy but the bloat and gas is normal for me! Haven't had sore breasts for a few months after ovulation but its back...

Bfn this morning as expected at 9dpo
What was I thinking?
@Ellsbells112 I had cramping 5-6dpo now nothing. I'm really hoping.

Fingers crossed everyone xxx

@Hannah1925 it's still early days, I suppose you will know soon enough if you start spotting. All my fingers and toes are crossed that you don't!

I feel really sick this morning, had it a bit yesterday but not this bad. No boob ache yet but I swear my nipples are darker. Niggly cramps here and there and bloated but that's normal for me. If this is all in my head I don't know what to think!

@SMiles14 my boobs usually start hurting now as well. They're usually sooo sore. I've got everything crossed for you too. Let this be our month.

When are you testing xx

@Hannah1925 oh babe try not to .test because the disappointment is a killer!! I cant help to feel negative I'm.even thinking what if my partner cant? Because I fell so easily before 🤦‍♀️ I'm 27 not in my 30s yet to think it's that...anyway I'm just an anxious person I need to chill!

I actually think I'm 6-7dpo now, no out of the ordinary signs though I'll be honest, I think by Wednesday I would "implant" if I am though.

Do you always normally spot before your period then?
