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!

@Posharmchairs sorry to see you here! Hopefully AF doesn't arrive 🤞🏼

@paintfairy yea & he said not to try and pin point ovulation! I'm still gonna temp tho 😊 my scan was all good so I'm hoping that info will make me more relaxed too 😊

I did every day and it didn't work. So I think it needs to be more relaxed for us. We are away at the beginning of my next FW though so that might help.

My AF seems to not be here. Never usually comes on this slowly. Bloody bonkers. Rather it just got on with it. Worrying now the herbs etc I've been taking have messed with it. Temp was only 36.50 so it must be imminent. Ffs.

Thank you @whatsthecraic91, when is your next window or are you already po?

@paintfairy I get it, darker patch in cm and all other af symptoms but it hasn’t arrived yet. Hate this part!

@posharmchairs I'm sure mine normally comes on quicker. Lol. Having said that- was overnight the last twice. I had a bit of red blood this morning. But mild cramps and back ache. Had it on and off all day but I think it's getting worse now so maybe it'll get on with it. Suppose waiting until work is over is useful! I've been taking painkillers all day, ready. 🤣

@Adrianoska we’ve been doing it every other day or every 3 days when I’m not fertile, but during that week it was every night. Hubby loved it 😂 they say at least 3 times per week as it gives sperm time to regenerate fully, but billions are created every day anyway. It’s all luck of the draw and timing I think! I’m only 7dpo so I suppose I’ll find out soon if the more is better method works.

@Newbie0818 I can't wait to see if you scored or not...
Yeah now I am worried we overdid it? Hahaha. This month I will try to relax a bit... Although I can't promise anything hahaha!
Xx

Me too @Adrianoska ! Tbh though I just have a feeling I’m not :( I track my cervix, and yesterday it was very high but it’s dropped lower again which isn’t a good sign :/

I hope you get your bfp!

@Posharmchairs I'm only CD3 today so FW doesn't begin to 6th March!

@whatsthecraic91 mine starts that day too! We are away 7th- 9th too so that'll hopefully take the pressure off.

Hey,
Can I join please. TTC #4 (I know am crazy but I'm Irish so it's pretty normal over here lol)
I have DS 8, DD 6 and DS 5.
I only came off my pill in January so this is my first cycle so I don't have a clue what my cycles are like.
I think I ovulated on the 17th/18th but not really sure. I tested yesterday @ 10dpo (I think) and it was a BFN. I don't have any symptoms. I had really sore boobs last week and I don't remember having that around ovulation but that's all settled. Had some cramps on Tuesday/Wednesday but have a feeling I'm out this month. Af due Monday 2nd March I think 🤔

@Bic51 welcome, maybe a bit early for bfp, you won't have long to wait, I am also a bit mad, TTC #2, at 42, ds is 9. Af due on the 6th, cycle 4 after pill too, trying my best not to test constantly.

Indulged myself with a bit of squinting this morning, I think I might be able to see something but not sure that it's not just the indent line! Not FMU either and at most 10dpo so not expecting much!

@littletandme I see what you mean but it is hard to tell if it’s the faintest of lines or an indent! I think we’re testing too early. Mines was negative on the same type of IC test with FMU. I’m 10 DPO too. Fingers crossed we’ll have more clarity in the next few days 🤞

@littletandme, it’s so hard to resist isn’t it! Hopefully in a few more days you’ll see a much more detectable line x

Still no af for me 15dpo, went to poas this morning and run out of sodding tests!

Not feeling overly hopeful as af is very irregular and I had no positive opk reading.

I saw this www.reddit.com/r/TFABLinePorn/comments/6kbkp4/dont_use_internet_cheapies_for_progression_10dpo/ and it’s making me think I should be testing on the FRER instead of these ICs 🤔

@karenkeys yes FRERs are much better but I refuse to waste the money until I get some kind of squinter on a cheapie. Will test again in the morning with a cheapie then dip a FRER in the same wee if I spot something!

I only have two FRERs but I have about 5 cheapies then some CB digitals for if AF is late!

@littletandme that’s a good idea i think I’ll dip a FRER in if I get a hint of anything on the IC in the coming days too. I’m due AF on Wednesday or Thursday so at that point I should know either way

Sadly Aunt Flo decided to turn up today- 6 days late. Everything crossed for next time though! 😊

@littletandme My IC's are still taking too long to show up but it's getting quicker but show up obvs on the frer but now a clear blue (not digital). Give it a go 🤞🏻 x

Looks more obvious when I've tweaked the colours a bit! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Newbie0818, I would never be able to check my cervix. I passed out once trying to insert a tampon! Hahaha. Can't do this.
Ohhh how annoying it is that we can't simply be informed the moment we get pregnant... Like a flashing light in our belly button or a notification sound? Hahaha 💡🔔🔊🤔

Hello @Bic501! Thank you for joining 😊
Good luck! I too have two kids already (12 and 6) but from a previous marriage. Now my husband and I are desperate for a baby together.
I am 36 though so I am a little bit worried... I hope it will happen. We have been TTC only for 3 months. It took me 6 months each time with my previous pregnancies. How old are you? And are you doing anything in order to support your fertility? I have gone mad by now... Doing all sorts. Proceive Max, Conceive Plus, hahaha.😅

Sorry to hear their @roarsome... Hopefully next time you will score the goal 😊

That would be so much easier @Adrianoska haha! I like the flashing belly button idea 😂
