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.

@Nic555 I didn’t but I never had that with my first pregnancy so now that you say it, there’s a little chance! Oh my god I’ll spend my whole weekend knicker watching. My tummy has been dodgy all day too so was a bit miserable but thanks for giving me hope. Come to think of it, it was kind of dried looking, unusual. We dtd on the 10th, 13th and 15th so I’m gonna assume if it was anything positive, it would be from the 10th? According to google, which I’m going to try and stay always from, implantation usually happens 7-12 days after fertilisation? I’ll keep you guys posted, if Af does arrive.

My hubby has gone to play football this evening for a local Dads vs Dads get together. And he isnt even a dad! Yet! Hopefully he will be soon.

@ceebee21 I'm feeling your pain honestly. I'm not even getting any AF symptoms or twinges or anything - I'm feeling like I might be weeks away from anything happening 😔 I'm starting to hear that little voice of doubt in the back of my head saying it might be months before my cycles get back on track so I need to block that voice out.

So what date is everybody going to test then? I'm so excited for everyone, I love seeing BFPs or even 'line eye' posts on here 😂

@CooperLooper it's just awful I just want an idea of when I OV and then I know I'm in the tww. But like you, I have an idea I could be waiting a few weeks yet, which feels like a few years x

@plaw was just an idea as did seem early if u got ovulation right. Any updates?

Not sure if I messed my OPK up this month the clear blue ones. I tested at night which was a blank face. Then the next day in the morning tested and got my flashy smily. Not sure if it was only flashing because I'd tested the night before so the morning one looked like a significant increase in estrogen cos I hadn't tested with FMU the day before. Although I was seeing an increase in CM so that's why I tested. I'm going to just do mornings next cycle. It's still flashing now but last two cycles I got the static on day four which would have been today but it's still flashing and I don't seem to have as much CM now. Maybe just taking bit longer to detect the LH surge this cycle 🤞

@Nic555 oh I know, it’s nice to have some positivity but not getting my hopes up on anything at all. So small bit of Pink stained CM last night when I wiped before going to bed but nothing since, just some CM now but it may be Af starting very slowly.

Feel like it will be a double whammy of upset as it will mean my cycles really are all over the place and then of course knowing it’s not happening for us this month.

I’ve lost a stone in the last 5 weeks as I want to be as healthy as possible for this ttc journey so perhaps that has messed with my cycle.

Hi I'm 37 with an 8 year old.
Cycle number 7 trying soy isoflavones this morning in the hope that they will help.
Period due 15/11.

Hi all can I join?? 😁
TTC #3 oh first 10yo girl 7yo boy
Age 29
Cycle 1 stopped pill on the 4th had af the 9th untill 12th. So cd11 today I've got ewcm since last night dtd yesterday and hopefully will tonight. First time I've ever ttc both pregnancys were unplanned and on the pill 🙈🙈

@Izzychar2927 it’s my first time too, last time we weren’t trying as such, we stopped using protection and it took 5 months for it to happen that way. So we are in a similar boat, have a child already but never knew how you have to get the timing exactly right. Here’s to getting out BFPs soon!

My AF still hasn’t showed yet after the small bit of spitting. More tmi but I seem to have developed thrush. It may be down to all the dtd, we have done it a lot more than usually lately! So now I’m thinking the spotting could be due to that.
We will see, according to my app (which I only began using last month, my AF is due 30th Oct (cycles irregular) so we will see.

Might order some opks for next month and actually make sure to pinpoint ovulation properly and do them everyday after CD11.

Hi everyone, can I join? 😊
TTC: #1
Age: 28
Cycle 1 after a miscarriage at 10 weeks in August. Hoping for our rainbow baby 🌈
AF/BFP due: 6th Nov approx.

Flashing smiley on OPK this morning so should ovulate in the next couple days. Scared/exciting to TTC again.

Baby dust to everyone x3

Hey @GreatestShowUnicorn welcome :) what are soy isoflavones? (Sorry just curious!)

Hi @MeganMama28 welcome! I'm 28 and TTC #1 too. Sorry to hear about your MC, that must've been tough 🌈

And another welcome to @Izzychar2927! 🙋🏼‍♀️

I just hope I get a BFP this month I know the chances are low as I haven't had a full cycle since the pill.. but all signs are that am ovulating, very bloated sensitive boobs and ewcm.
d
Dtd evey other day think am due to ovulate in 2 days according to the app so fingers crossed... does anyone else suffer with wind during ovulation am terrible at the moment

@CooperLooper thank you, it was extremely hard especially as we got closer to our 12 week scan. Managing to look forward now and be positive about the ttc journey again finally 😊

Hopefully this will be our lucky month fx! Would love a July baby. Doing the SMEP last time worked for us so going for that method again.

Hi All

Can I join?
TTC #1
Age 28
Cycle number 15 (not had one BFP)

Currently 2DPO and going mad in this TWW. We have given it everything this month. I have been taking extra vitamins, BD every 2 days since end of last period. Really hoping this month is our month 🤞 x

Anyone got some positivity to share today.

I'm being ridiculous but worrying I won't ovulate this month. I had lots of CM beginning of the week but not had a positive OPK yet and seem to have dried up since. Sorry if TMI.

I'm CD16 I think and didn't ovulate tell day 21 last cycle so don't know why I'm worried but I had all the signs so was hoping to have ovulated by now x

@CooperLooper they work a bit like clomid and as I'm ttc with donor sperm thought it'd help to throw them in the mix soy isoflavones yes or no? www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2206677-soy-isoflavones-yes-or-no

Is anybody else testing around 8th November? AF is due then so will be testing around that date x

I'm testing 31st Oct, or if i can wait long enough 2 November for the full TWW (coincidentally also husbands birthday).

Should be about 1 DPO

TTC #1
Age: 32
Cycle: 2 officially (PCOS and irregular cycles so trying for 5 months)

I'm just excited I ovulated (ha) but massive fingers crossed for some good news! (And not going too mad with with symptom spotting).

Hi, can I join you? AF arrived today 5 days late so I'm out this month.

TTC #3
Age 31
Cycle 3
Due / BFP 17th Nov

Hello can I join?

Ttc number 1
Age 29
Cycle 13
Test date 7th November

I had a mmc in May and my due date would have been 19th November so I'd very much like to have a BFP before this date!! Been ttc since June 2018

Hi,

Can I join? Been reading through threads but first time on here myself!

25
Cycle #3
CD #22
TTC #1

Thought I'd join as I'm getting myself into a right old mess, who'd of thought getting pregnant would be so hard when you spend years of your life trying not to get pregnant!

It's all so confusing as well so much to get a grip on, I am using Femometer OPK's and the app said I should have ovulated yesterday but I have only has neg OPKs so far and the same last month using boots own but I gave up after 5 days of those as the recommend holding your wee for 4 hours before and I spent half the day wriggling my legs. Does everyone recommend CB opks?

I've also been tracking my BBT with a Femometer thermometer but that hasn't left my much clear as the temp is all over the place 😂

My periods used to be pretty irregular when I was younger but they have now levelled out and are more regular Although I usually have a long cycle at around 35 days average.

Although I'm not far in to my TTC journey I am already stressing about it not happening so thought I'd jump on here for some support!!

Sorry for the long rant 😩

@HopingforfirstBFP my AF is due the same day so we will be testing around the same time! Fingers crossed for you! Will be good to have someone to go through the wait with! X

@GreatestShowUnicorn never heard of them before so thank you, you've taught me something new. I'll read into it!

@HopingforfirstBFP I'm testing on the 5th 🤞🏻

I hope this post doesn’t upset anyone as that is definitely not my aim!

I follow a fertility nurse on insta and she had some really interesting points to make.

This really made me feel calm about the whole thing.

She said out of 100 couples,

• 20 will conceive in the first month of trying
• 50 couples will have by 6 months
• 90 of the couples within 12 months.

She mentioned that of the 10 out of 100 couples that are left, there are usually a few routine tests done but couples are still told to try for months after and certain tweaks can be made which can often help.

It just made it all feel less scary and thought I would share.

@Gee1235 oh fab! It’s nice to know somebody is due AF at roughly the same time.

@CooperLooper oooh I may end up testing early knowing what I’m like so could be around the 5th.

Good luck ladies 🤞🏼 X
