February Bus :-)

[Elmlee]

Hey ladies,

Posted on a few threads but think it's about the time I might know what I'm sorta on about! Ha!

Looking for some TTC Buddies I can what's app :-)

A bit about me, I'm 28.. 29 in April.. my husband is a year younger than me. We've been married just over a year and together for 9 years this July.

I came off the pill Cerelle 24th November after years of the pill then implant and then the pill again. Never had periods on any. Just a few withdrawals when I missed a few pills.

Anyway! Been actively TTC since my withdrawal bleed 25-29th November.

Finally after a December of no Flo she's arrived today. So finally I can accurately start trying to track on Ovia!

What's your story?

@paintfairy @Wise0wl God knows where he thought he'd be. Probably like it was back in the old days - out shooting, gents club, playboy mansion? 🤷🏻‍♀️😂
"I'm just no good with blood stuff"
"Cutting the cord then?" 🙈

Oooh increased CM for me too now ✅ Yess atleast one symptom on 4dpo 😂
Also weird throbbing ish down below...I’m hoping it’s not some UTI and I’m just casually getting happy over it pretending it’s a “symptom” rather than go see a doc 🙈

Men are funny! Sometimes you have to wonder!

@littletandme I did the same this month. Cheap ones from Ebay. Then used the fermometer app. Which seemed hit and miss because I think I missed the peak. But high only stayed a day and later (obviously you can't know until it's too late though) my bbt matched up. Plus I spot when I ovulate. So it all pointed to day 11.

Right now I'm farting like a trooper. Definitely pregnant?

@Eatsleepbakerepeat welcome to crazy gang! I used CB digital too, had 2 flashing smileys and then static (on the evening of my 2nd day flashing smiley - I got a static , so my LH surge happened afternoon ish) They advise you to DTD every other day in general throughout your cycle (NHS website ) But yea, I use my Clue app to tell me roughly when I’ll be in my fertile window! Plus OPKs....good luck to you :)

@paintfairy of course — classic pregnancy symptom = farting 😂

@MrsTwentySeven im still getting loads of cm. Cramps have finally buggered off though! I swear this next week is going to last forever 😂😂

Dull, achy, almost throbbing, niggle cramps still going.
Boobs are getting quite sore, to the sides and underneath (without me poking them).
CM still there and same consistency.
Dull ache to lower back started this evening.
Quite bloaty to lower abdomen but now upper abdomen too from tea.
Was a bit gasser than usual, assuming from tea this will increase a bit too.
Saw there was a magnum in the freezer (that I'd forgot about) so I craved it for dessert.

There's no other explanations that can rule out that at 3DPO (it's gone midnight) I am clearly pregnant and I must add my day by day review to the site too

Oh my, this was a hilarious thread to catch up 😂 and it’s really helping me not to start testing! I think I’m 8DPO now, last month I took my first test on this day. Not any more!

@2020wisher me too! Learnt my lesson. Was meant to test at 14dpo but tested from 11 and got my period on 13 🤦‍♀️.
So, probably missed ovulation by one dtd and also weed on about £20 worth of opks and pat’s. Whoops!

Does anyone know when you download the femo app if it’s charging you? Or is there an option to sign up to the paid version once you’ve got it?

Hi all! A lot to catch up on from the weekend!! I'm still waiting to ov, my cycles are a bit irregular which means that I've found it difficult to DTD at the right time so decided to use OPKs this month. Lines are starting to darken so hopefully ov is coming in the next day or two then I can join you all in obsessive symptom spotting 🤣

Morning all!
5 dpo officially (telling myself I’m halfway there)
No symptoms to report except maybe CM still around rather than it going away post fertile week
Got 5 days of work to keep me busy (hopefully)
I haven’t ordered any FRERs yet so can’t test even if I wanted to!
Happy Monday!

@2020wisher weve got this... i think im 7dpo today. Had to get up twice in the night to pee, must be a sign and has nothing to do with the pint of water i drank before bed.... although weirdly my boobs arent sore at all, despite some squeezing to check 😂😂😂

Morning all, happy Monday.

5dpo for me today. Had to get up to wee at 3 am (nothing to do with water drank before bed) and boobs still ache (without poking, just by being there). They're still nice apparently too 🙈😂

I really think AF is brewing from the way boobs feel. This is exactly how they used to feel before AF when I wasn't on the mini pill.

Anywho, have a good Monday everyone 💪

Ladies, we survived the weekend, as far as I'm aware those in a TWW haven't POAS!
Congratulations!!! Treat yourself today with the money you've saved 😊

@MimiArm gonna try that one out on my oh and see if he says they look good lol! Hope every one has a good monday. Im working all day, less time to obsessively google every singe twinge 😂 10 days til af is due to arrive, and i get paid tomorrow. Must not buy tests 😇

@posharmchairs no it's free to download then you have the option to pay, it's giving me an offer of 12 months for £27.49 but I don't think it's really needed unless you have no clue what you're doing and I think the majority of us here are in the know!

3dpo and nothing here yet, except I did notice a lot of creamy CM yesterday when I was about to do an OPK. Another big temp increase today.

I think I will let myself test on 4th Feb, I would try 3rd (10dpo) but I have to get DD to nursery that morning whilst DH is asleep off nights so I don't really have time to stare at squinters 😂

My boobs are always sore. And are now. Lol. I usually always wake in the night and end up going for a pee. Last 2 nights I actually haven't! Amazingly I've slept through, which I'm pleased about. Roll on next weekend. And the fun can all begin again for next month. Really need to diet though, I'm getting fat. So it'll be distinctly less fun because I'll be angry I can't eat cake.

This bus is going to stop me obsessively googling I know it! 😀

@MrsTwentySeven that's a good tip re another opk in afternoon of flashy day. I'm on my third flashy face day today so may try again later (never thought I'd say that sentence...)

@Lola871 I think we're at about the same stage of things....I think ov day will be tomorrow or Wed

Morning everyone
Here's to a cracking week of not obsessing over symptoms and peeing on sticks!

Did I see that someone being DPO but still doing OV test?
Have i read that wrong or is there a reason for this?

I'm at DPO7 and I'm itching to test already - I'm not even having any symptoms to make me think this is our month either. Doesn't help that I kind of suspect I ovulated early this cycle too when we had an unexpected house guest for a few days so didn't get to dtd! So its just me being crazy for the sake of it I guess! (Unlike last month where I had ALL the symptoms!) Only sore boobs but I've basically had that continuously since TTC! Ugh.

@Anon87 probably me, I did them up to 2dpo (yesterday) just to check they were definitely getting lighter as Femometer still classed my 1dpo opk as "high"

@Anon87 It wasn't me but I am doing that - I ovulated late the last two months around CD21 (but had ov symptoms CD14 and 15) so I'm just erring on the side of caution to make sure I don't miss it!

@Talcott2007 you can join me in resisting the urge to poas! And adding to the symptom spotting list, funny coppery taste in my mouth today. I swear my body just likes to trick me 😂
