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.

@MrsLEB maybe just go every other day from today? I guess the important thing is going for it when the OPK is positive 🤣

My body is playing tricks on me! Positive (just about) OPK yesterday AM and fading since so think I surged in the early hours of Sunday, temps are all over the place!
I really hope I’m about to ovulate but not getting my hopes up and had a failed ovulation early last cycle and it does seem to be very early in my cycle?
Last cycle was 30 days (which is shortest since January since coming off the pill) with LP of 13 day.. can you get different LPs from each ovary? 🤔

Hey everyone :)

Can i join?

Im 30
Going through iui
Im currently on my Two week wait, im a week in time feels like it has stopped. I have to get a blood test on the 22nd to see if we have conceieved.

Hows everyone getting on?

Xx

Hi, jumping on the bus.
TTC #1
Age 29
Cycle 2 (CD3 today)
Testing November 5th, but might be more like 7th + as im basing that on ovulating as early as i think i did last cycle

People that temp, do you do it every day? Im going to start doing it this cycle but waiting till AF is finished. Im too lazy in the morning to do it every day!

Hiya can I join?
TTC #1
Age 30
Cycle 3 (1st cycle after tmfr)
Cycle length is normally 35 days, currently CD12
I tried temping but I carried on forgetting to do it before I got up! Sticking with the OPK's and using the apps.

Hi to all new people 🙂

@MrsC89 I hear you! I didn’t take bbt this morning due to being up at half 1. 🙄 So tired today.
@blackpinkinyourarea I am also too lazy to take my temp every morning so I do it for about a week and a half around ov until I ovulate!
One app says I ovulate tomorrow so we are covered for that but I’m hoping it happens Friday at the earliest as OH is away with work. Only a hint of a line on opks so far so fingers crossed!

Sorry everyone I'm back! I've been away for the weekend with the girls and let's just say I totally forgot about everything and was drunk for the whole thing so I very much doubt I'm in with a chance this month 😔 I needed it though.

I haven't temped at all so I haven't a clue if I've ovulated yet. I will do my temp in the morning and check.

Hope everyone is doing well, I can see there have been a lot of new additions to our group.

Fingers crossed we get some good results! I'm on cd 22.

Xxxx

@Maisy24 sounds like the perfect weekend. A lot of people getting pregnant when they don't bother temping or doing OPK so you could be in with a good chance as long as you DTD at some point 😂 I'm CD11 hoping to be in fertile window by end of week. Not doing OPK till tomorrow and not started SMEP think I'll just do the three days in a row and then miss a day rather than so much before I get a positive OPk

Hello 🙋🏼‍♀️ jumping on the fun bus too

Age 29
TTC #1
Cycle 1
CD fuck knows I haven't had a period in like a hundred years

Had my implant out on 5th Oct. I've been using CB OPKs to try and see if/when my body starts doing what it should, and I'm on day 6 of flashing smileys no peak yet, so I'll probably stop in a couple of days. Tracking using the Ovia app which I'm finding useful as I can track symptoms and intercourse days and CM and cervix positioning and all other weird and wonderful things (who knew making a baby would be such a military operation).

My doc advised to POAS after 4 weeks if there's still no sign of a period.

Nice to meet you all and good luck! 🥳🧡

Jesus Christ I've got my own age wrong - I'm 28 not 29! 😅

Welcome everyone 😊 good luck. Hopefully we will see lots of BFPs in November.

@CooperLooper your post has just made me laugh 😂 I forget my age so much as well. Welcome to the madness of trying to conceive. My one tip is don't bother checking your cervical position. I started doing that and it just confused me so much 😂 just use the OPK. That's really quick to get a smiley face after your implant so fab news. Took me three months to get back to normal after the pill x

@Nic555 yeeeahh I tried checking my cervix once just to see and honestly thought to myself 'what the eff are you doing' it just felt so weird! Which OPKs are you using?

3 months must have been tough, especially once you've made the decision to TTC and you're raring to go. Glad you're on track and back to usual now though x

Ok if I join?

Ttc #2
Cycle 1
I have long cycles so this is why I’m determined to give it my best shot as I only have about 9 cycles a year.

I think I’m ovulating at the mo, opk was positive but both lines were a little faded, I tested last night and just had the one line. I’m taking that as a positive? And tmi sorry! I have some egg white CM going on now too. It’s amazing how we suddenly become aware of what’s going on in our bodies when we are ttc. Baby dust to all.

@CooperLooper I was a luckily ovulating but just long cycles so felt forever until I was next fertile which was just crap. Yes don't bother again I got obsessed and it changes so quickly it's pointless. I'm Using clear blue the advance ones. They're so good as can use your FMU which is so much easier

@plaw definitely sounds like you're ovulating fingers crossed 🤞 I know what u mean about long cycles. It's frustrating not having as many chances so u really have to make it count x

Hi. Currently 9 days late but all BFN so assuming I'm out this month and my psos is playing up or I'm so stressed I've stopped my period so hoping AF just shows so I can move on. Going to keep trying for November.

I'm 30 (31 next month)

It will be second month trying

Ttc #3

Got pregnant with #1 within 2 months, took over 2 years with #2 due to pcos and was told probably wouldn't happen so not holding much hope of actually getting my third wished for baby. Already blessed but would love a 3rd to complete us as we always said 3.

@Nic555 oh that's good then that you were ovulating at least. Being on the Nexplanon implant I think that stops you from ovulating, so that's my biggest worry - I'd like to get back into a cycle of actually ovulating again. I'm on day 7 of flashing smileys now though so I think I'll use the last stick in the pack of CB and stop for this month as it's getting frustrating.

@Jj2431 good luck 🤞🏻 any sign of AF? Are you testing again today?

No signs of AF but still negative. Accepting I'm just late I guess or missing one :(

@Jj2431 do you know when you ovulated? Could it be that you ovulated later than you thought?

@Nic555 I think I'm going to get the clear blue opks for November as using FMU sounds so much easier! I think I keep missing my peak with the stupid cheap sticks I use.

Does anyone else here dream they see two lines and are pregnant; and then wake up really disappointed? That happened to me last night it was awful!

My friend text me the other morning saying she dreamt I was pregnant, she doesn't even know we are trying so I'm hoping it's a sign it will happen in the next few months (wishful thinking after 14 months)🤣

@Maisy24 I dreamt last night my mum was pregnant after a one night stand 😂😂 I remember thinking it was a good sign if she can get pregnant at 59 I'm sure I'll be pregnant soon 😂😂😂 I have weird pregnancy dreams quite often. I got my flashy OPK this morning which means my cycles are definitely back to normal 😁 so happy. However not sure when to DTD this month. I was going to do three in a row then skip a day and then once more. However we DTD yesterday so would now mean 4 days in a row and don't want OH to run out of steam.😂 usually after my flashing I get my static on the 4th day which will Saturday but at same time don't want to miss a day and then get my static earlier. So bloody hard. May just do it when we fancy it and definitely the day after my static as that's when I noticed loads of EWCM last month xx

@CooperLooper Sounds like you are similar to me... I am on day 6 of flashing smileys and it is so annoying. They are the bane of my life haha.

I had my implant out on 9th July and fell pregnant two weeks later, without a period in between. I unfortunately had a MMC and am now back to TTC, although first cycle after and have no idea what is going on... it is just over 2 weeks since my ERPC and am getting the flashing smileys, so guess that is a good sign!! fingers crossed that we get a static soon!!!

xx

Am I okay to hop on this bus? Af has just arrived so will be due around 12th November.

Age: 29
Cycle: 2
We have one 4 year old and lost a little boy in December (TFMR)

@Treaclepie19 of course you are! Welcome ☺️ I am really sorry to hear about your little boy and wishing you lots of luck in conceiving. We are here to listen to any rants/moans/craziness and general rubbish xxx

@Nic555 This is my first dream, which is quite surprising given my brain is on babies for 99% of the time haha. Glad it isn't just me though! That is great news about your cycle; id say just make sure you do every other day and you are covered. I've read every day can lower sperm quality so don't beat yourself up if you miss a day, remember the sperm can wait for Days And can even meet the egg last minute. I've got my fingers crossed you have a sociable egg and lots of sociable sperm this month 😁

Can someone explain what the flashing smiley means? Is that fertile?

Thank you @Maisy24 😊
I'm in a bit of a grump! But I'll get over it.

Flashing smiley means fertile window but static is peak :)

Hi! Please could I join too? I'm out for Oct with AF a day early 👎🏼 but due again on 10th Nov, although I'm taking some supplements to see if I can lengthen my 25 day cycle a little for a longer luteal phase...spotting from 7dpo usually.

Age 30
Cycle ttc number 3

@ceebee21 yes those flashing little smug smiley faces! Stop winking at me and turn static will you 😂

Welcome @Treaclepie19. Sorry about your loss but fingers crossed this is your month.

Hey @croissantmonster 😊 nice to meet you. Which supplements are those? Fingers crossed for you too!

Hopping on from October too...if that's ok?

I'm 33
Ttc #2 (little one is 6!)
Cycle 10
AF due around the 12th

Had an ovary removed last year due to some crappy grim cysty tumour things.... my cycles are regular, give or take the odd day (apart from this last cycle!) and always have been but are shorter since my op. Going to try and remember to start my opk's at the right time this month! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Fingers crossed 🤞 x
