November Bus - testing first week of November 2019

[omikron]

Hi all.

I'm out this month so I thought I would start the next bus. I hope it's our month.

TTC #2
Age 33
Cycle 6
Due / BFP 5 November

Fingers crossed for all.

@MeganMama28 really pleased that you have ovulated that's great. I wouldn't compare this TWW to your last pregnancy. Honestly every pregnancy is different and you're never out till AF shows xx

@Sophieb15 I'm sorry to hear that but I guess at least you know for sure. I hope you're ok x

@Nic555 ah okay, that's good to know! So annoying how many tricks your body plays on you 😂

@Tamalama I'm good I knew anyway but just wanted to be sure. I might O early this month since I'd a very short AF. Xx

@Nic555 thank you 😊 it definitely feels like a positive step in the right direction! You're right I need to try not to compare - need to sort out some distractions!

@Nic555 thanks so much, I feel much more positive after speaking with lovely ladies on here today and also been googling all day and as you say it seems to not mean as much as the other stars. So my DH said the doctor said keep trying for another 6 months and we need to relax as the adrenaline from stressing can prevent your body from allowing it. He asked her directly if we would likely need ivf and she said definitely not it's all down to chance and with both our results we should definitely conceive naturally. But I worry about advice from NHS doctors as I feel they must have a secret agenda to shorten that ivf waiting list.

In my head I'm giving it another 3 months (so till January) and then I'm going back in to try and get referred. Although it's nice to have good results back it is also very frustrating to not have an answer as to why it's not happening.

I've got my fingers crossed for you this month and all the other lovely ladies xxxx

@jemx I am having left side pelvis/hip pain. It’s not bad, it’s just making me aware of the area or something. Trying not to overthink it!

@Sophieb15 sorry lovely xx

@Peachyx2505 I knew I wasn't anyway and would have been freaked over the Clot if it was Implantation. CD 5 today going to be positive even though I know If I do have Endo it is going to take longer. Will DTD as much as we can and hope for the best.

Where are you in your cycle now? x

I'm really hoping it's 10th cycle lucky for us both 🍀 💕
I am CD 11, started opk yesterday obvs both negative, but I did ov early last cycle. I'm working tonight but told DH we will have a busy weekend 😂😉 xx

@sophieb15 yes I used opks and bbt to pinpoint ovulation. Still feel really crampy today 🙁 it’s way too early for anything pregnancy related so I’m just hoping nothing is wrong.

Anyone else find that they are positive from af to ov and then once tww starts they turn into a psycho? I am 4dpo and I am so bloated today with trapped wind. Every month I symptom spot I don't know why I do it to myself it's so hard to relax and forget. When's everyone testing?

I’m testing on the 3rd of november if no AF. 🙂 I’m determined to not test earlier as I’ll just keep confirming it anyway 😆
what about you?

Hi all I'll join in too.
AF due 4th November
4DPO today

Feeling a bit bloated today which is odd!

@Sophieb15 yes that's true! X

@Makeafamily19 @CouscousEvaporator I am due on the 3rd/4th of Nov too!

I don't know how long I can hold off with testing. If I've ran out of ICs then I won't test until af is missed as I don't want to waste anymore pricier ones.

Every month though I convince myself I am pg but they are all just af symptoms that I am now being hyper sensitive to.

When I was actually pg I can't really remember any symptoms before bfp

@mrsleb I know exactly what you mean. Although I stress a bit the week up to ovulation scared that I might not ovulate. I don't find the first week of the TWW that bad its the 2nd week when I try and spot symptoms of AF. I don't feel too bad this time don't think I'll get my BFP so already resigned to Af and means I can still go away next July if I'm not.

I haven't set a date to test yet as AF always arrives by surprise before I get chance anyway 😂

@Maisy24 glad you're feeling positive. I can't remember if you use OPKs? If not may be worth it for the next three months just so u know you're timing BD right? It easier said than done not stressing. My friend tried for 2 years, went to doctors and found out she wasn't ovulating every month and the next month got pregnant. I think not expecting it to happen may have made her have more of a what will be will be attitude

Xx

@Nic555 I've been using the cheap strips from amazon, but I have ordered the clear blue ones that you use, as I'm not temping I or anything anymore I want to try and stress less, so just going to use the clear blue opks from day 10 to make sure we don't miss it.

I'm due AF on 1st Nov, would Saturday be too early to do an early pg test do you think?! Or am I best just trying to have patience 🙈

I'll be testing a bit later around the 12th depending on if AF has shown xx

@Makeafamily19 @MrsLEB that will be good to all test at the same time!
🤞🏻

@jemx I’d try to wait as that’s so early and you’ll just end up not believing whatever result you get anyway haha
Easier said than done though!!

jemx I got a positive 5 days before af was due with dd2. I felt weird for a couple of days before that and I knew so it is possible you’ll see something that early but it’s unlikely. This time I’m going to test until af is definitely late because testing early just made me more anxious about a chemical.
I was convinced I ovulated yesterday because I had loads of ecwm after 3 days of ecwm. It completely stopped after lunchtime yesterday but then I’ve just had some more over 24 hours later. I think that’s probably me out for this month because it’s been 4 days since dtd and I’m not sure if I’ve ovulated now. Very annoying because I wanted to time it with the beginning of the school holidays

@Maisy24 yes that's a good idea. CB are better and will stop you sympton spotting ovulation.

I am trying not to stress either only 3/4 DPO but suddenly felt very emotional tonight nearly cried twice over something stupid. Think it was just a crappy day in work. I'm on holiday next week so can't wait for a bit of chill time x

@Nic555 that holiday has landed at a great time for you to relax in the 2WW I've got my fingers crossed this is your month!!! 🥰

@12goldstars I know I should really hold off but the anticipation is killing me! Deep down, I don't think I am so there's probably not much point in testing early. I'm going away for the weekend from 31st Oct to 4th Nov though so might do it a couple of days early... or maybe I should just wait to see if I get af while I'm away?! Ahh it's so stressful.

It's just so hard to know isn't it? I'm really unsure when I ovulated this month. That timing would have been perfect, I was hoping for this month as then it would be around my partners 30th birthday!
