March bus

[littletandme]

Just thought I'd start a March bus for anyone just edging into the next month for testing/AF due!

I'll start with my stats:

Trying for baby #2 with a 2.5yo DD
Cycle 2 (although first full cycle after having the implant removed)
CD1 today
AF/BFP due sometime after 5th March depending on what my cycle wants to do this month!

@Hatepickinganame exactly!

The nausea is gone now but I’ve got weird cramps. Really hoping af isn’t coming... my LP was only 10 days last cycle.

Well done for holding off @karenkeys !

@karenkeys well done! I'd try and hold off til Sunday or even Monday if you can! Easy for me to say at 1dpo though 🤣

Ok ladies, tmi time, cd 21, I think 6 days post o, and I am having a bit of a weird brown mucus discharge, not really brown, just doesn't look clear as normal on the pad, has paranoia taken set or we could be onto something?

@paintfairy 36.59 that's been my highest after ov then had my curve and went back to 36.59 then it was the .56 and today's .51.

@Anon87 I have a few days at the end where mine definitely sits lower than before that.
I've ordered progesterone cream. I'll try it next month. Be interesting to see if it has any impact on my LP at all......

@Anon87 this is my chart from the month I fell pregnant with DD. My temp wasn't perfect even days before my BFP so I wouldn't count yourself out too much just yet. I was getting perfect sleep back then too!

Another big temp increase today and Fem has changed its mind yet again so thinks I'm only 4dpo, not 7 🙄 maybe promising for a triphasic shift?!

One week down, one more to panic...and then another to test, and I haven't tested yet🎉

@littletandme possibly? Fingers crossed.

Mine is dropping. 😂 AF imminent. So at least I'm not an imposter on the March bus any more!

@paintfairy aww I really hope there's still some chance for you!

Fem is doing my head in changing its mind, although it's given me a cover line now 🤷🏻‍♀️

@littletandme Fertility Friend has the best charts I find. Doesn't tend to change anything about. And no- I've known since Monday it's a no go. Rubbish.

@paintfairy I'm using FF too because I used it last time with DD, but that is predicting ov a little too early I think! One too early and one too late! 🤦🏻‍♀️

@littletandme its usually right for me. Are you using OPKs?

I was unsure this month as my temps were all over. OPK was high on the wed morning so I thought I would ovulate Thursday. But then I felt crampy wed night, so I thought it was then. However got spotting on the sun and not at ovulation (usually do) so was confused. But FF said it happened wed and that would be correct if AF came today. And its already starting!

So I'll remain on the March bus.

2dpo today, I feel like this cycle has been long already, which is silly because it's actually the shortest one I've had for ages 🤣

Not sure why I'm feeling so impatient this month, I'm generally quite tired and getting towards needing a break so that might be it, got a week off in four weeks so something to look forward to!

@paintfairy yep my OPKs were positive on CD13 and even stronger on CD14 which is why I think CD13 is too early, I think I probably ovulated either late CD14 or 15, which would make me about 7dpo.

Boobs feel noticeably sore today!

@paintfairy sorry AF is here!!

CD3 for me so hopefully AF will be gone by Sunday so we can get back to it! Trying to relax this month, I have took to decorating so doing my bedroom this weekend 😊 also going to try and just DTD 3 times a week every week as that's what my doctor said on Wednesday when I went for my scan - he said I need to chill out 🤣

I started having symptoms, boobs a bit sore, a bit of cramps and some lower back pain, af due on the 6, so started to get paranoid that that's what it is😓

@whatsthecraic91 Agree. We did it too much. No need I'm sure. I think my body won't hang onto an egg anyway. So killing myself getting it fertilised is madness. I haven't sleep since the week of DTD to a ridiculous degree. First time last night I slept (and oddly we did it then, but because we wanted to. Lol). So I now can't sleep apparently without DTD. 😂

@littletandme They do say to go from the first surge and not subsequent? Assuming the OPK was really high. You only know when AF arrives really though, what happened.

@paintfairy eeek so I could be 9dpo then?! Wonder if I should test this weekend!

I’m also having cramps and tender boobs @Franklydear and am worried too :( hopefully we’ll be lucky 🤞🏼

The cm situation is so ridiculous I’ve resorted to wearing pads now 🙈 never had so much before. Weird hormones.

Hi @paintfairy, sorry to see you on this bus.

I’m still hanging on but with severe pms, and af due imminently.
14dpo today. Going to see if I get to Sunday or if af beats me to it.

Boobs are so sore it’s almost breastfeeding territory of pain, but I know I’m probably being over sensitive because I want that to be a good sign.

@littletandme I’m testing this weekend at 10 DPO - join me! Actually you have been pregnant before... do you remember how many DPO you got a positive result back then?

@karenkeys I tested at 10dpo which was BFN then tested again and got my BFP at 12dpo

@karenkeys I tested at 10dpo which was BFN then tested again and got my BFP at 12dpo

Oh this is crazy, right?
With my both previous pregnancies I didn't test positive until 14 or 15 dpo.
Does not stop me from testing 9dpo each month this time hahaha!

Last 3 months my husband and I had sex pretty much every night especially around the fertilie period. Perhaps that's too much? What do you girls think? Maybe we really ought to stick to every other day? I always feel like the more the better but I am still not pregnant... 🤔

What's your thoughts? From my research I concluded that having sex every day actually gives you slightly better chances to conceive than every other day. But some people say it is better to wait. Can we sort this out please? 😌
