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!

So sorry @sausage1990 :( fx for a sticky bean for you both soon 🤞🏼🤞🏼
I’m on CD44 now 😭 bfn yesterday, but no sign of af either 🤷🏼‍♀️ We last DTD on the 1st too so no chance I’m pg. I’ve been quite unwell and just haven’t been able to cope with it. Just really hope it’s nothing serious...

@newbie0818 God cd44 is hard going. When I came off my pill for the 1st time in 2016 we were also buying our house so with the crazy hormones and stress of moving etc my cycles were so messed up. I had 1 cycle that was 51 days and another that was 69! It was crazy. I had all the tests and all came back clear etc... Dr said it was to do with stress and as soon as we'd sorted the house my cycles went back to normal which is 32-35 days for me. So I feel your pain... Except I wasn't ttc so less frustrating but i can imagine.
I'm what way have you been unwell? Hope you feel better soon xx

@sausage1990 Wow 69! I really hope it doesn’t end up that long. I’ve been feeling quite anxious with everything going on at the minute so wander if it’s that. I came off the pill in August and they’ve just been all over the place since so who knows what my body is doing.
Oh it was a stomach bug but it lasted for nearly a week. I’m better now just exhausted from it all x

@newbie0818 I'm glad you're feeling better, but I'm sure it wiped you out - those types of bugs usually do. Yeah it is an anxious time... Just try to avoid too much social media and protect your mental health 💕

I'm sure it will settle down. Cycles can take a while to settle, especially with the pressure of ttc. Try and do some things you enjoy and are good for the mental health... Going for a walk, cooking a nice meal, spending time with your SO with a film and a duvet, nice glass of wine. Some self care goes along way 😊

Aw so tomorrow will be 1 dpo! Least I know, now to just stay away from the symptom spotting and the FRER's 🙈

Thanks @Sausage1990 we will try to :)

So... weird thing happened this morning that I’ve not seen before. Tmi warning!

I went for a wee and when I wiped there was a very light yellowy brown substance on the tissue. Can this mean af is on the way?

It could be @newbie0818... 🤞🏻 Your busy decides to do something soon. I imagine at this point you just want an answer either way rather than this limbo. Xx

Good morning ladies 😙

My period is coming, I am spotting...
I knew it will but still it upsets me. 😕
Yesterday I had a meltdown. You know, full on tantrum... My husband had to reassure me that he is not leaving etc. I didn't behave totally rational 😩

And here we go again.
I just can't wait to see yours BFP s! Anyone is testing?

😘

Awww I'm sorry @Adrianoska try to keep your chin up. Your time will come and it will be even more wonderful as a result - sending love your way xx

I’m spotting, somethings FINALLY happening! Is it stupid that I’m still hoping it might be implantation? 😔

No... I have a full on blood river and I am still hoping it is an implantation bleed. Silly us... 😕

How are you doing guys? I hope all is well?

Anyone testing tomorrow?
I am still feeling so down... 😩

I'm sorry @Adrianoska that sucks.

I'm due af on Thursday and no signs yet... I'm. Probably going to wait to test Friday morning if she doesn't arrive on Thursday. Last cycle she arrived on a Thursday, I remember because it was my long clinic day and I had a little moment in the bathroom on my own... so the fact that I'm waiting for her to arrive (or not) on a Thursday again for some reason it's making me nervous... So stupid... Xx

@Adrianoska does that mean your cycle was roughly 21-22 days? Might be worth keeping an eye on! When you go back for your 21 day test results make sure to mention you ovulated on like CD7 as well.

I know I said I wouldn't test till after AF is due but I couldn't help myself. I took one of the Clear blue early tests. I'm 12dpo. And it was a negative. Should I still keep my hopes up and try later or forget about this cycle.
Also I'm thinking of not trying next cycle thanks to the Covid-19. My sister is going through IVF and the doctors have said they will have to freeze her eggs instead of carrying all the way through because of the virus and the risks. So perhaps I should wait but I really don't want too.

Hi ladies - just a little update as I went AWOL. I have slightly irregular cycles but tested on CD27 with a FRER and CD30 with a cheap test and both were BFN. Since then I’ve been having regular cramps, pretty much every day thinking oh here comes AF! But - last night on CD 40 I thought I’ll give it one last shot and BFP! I must have ovulated later than expected and apart from the mild cramps have no other symptoms. Obviously it’s very early days but I’m being cautiously optimistic!! Sending you all the best wishes and baby dust for BFPs for everyone xx

Ohhh amazing news @elysiann!!! Congratulations on your BFP - giving me hope for the next few days before I'm in the testing window 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Juno231 i ovulated on 10cd and my cycle is 24 or 25 days these days
... Use to it was 28 days.
Now shorter...

Oh I am still upset about BFN! 😔

@elysiann well done! 🎀❤️
What's your story? I must have missed it or something...
🤗

Congratulations @elysian, I am also AWOL as in limbo at the moment, cycles very irregular so who knows when anything is happening

Thank you ladies 😍
@Adrianoska I’m sorry to say I’m one of those really annoying people that it was our first cycle properly trying, although I’ve been off the pill since May 2017 so it was very much out of my system. It’s only been the last 6 months that my cycles have evened out a little bit, but still vary between 29 - 34 days.
Going by last AF I’ll be 6 weeks tomorrow but I think I’m probably just 5 x

11DPO, randomly decided to do a test as I had FMU and this is immediately after I dipped it. 😬😬😬 not going to test again until tomorrow.

Omg @calimommy yes well done!!! This was gonna be your last try no? So lucky it stuck 😁

@elysiann so happy for you too - I'm glad to finally see so BFPs on here!

I'm 11dpo now and cheapie tests are still as white as snow so something tells me I'm out this month too! It's not over until the witch comes though, which in theory is this Saturday.

Yes the last cycle. I'm not going to tell DH until I get a few more positives and they are darker. I think I have a FRER but we can't leave the house with quarantine so it's just IC otherwise. That stash of quarantine wine I built up is looking useless 🤞

Yay! Congrats @elysiann and @calimommy 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 Hope everything goes well for you both.

I’m fairly certain I’m experiencing af. It’s still very light but is very dark red. And I won’t be able to get my 21 day bloods done because of all the madness going on :/ think we’ll take a break this next cycle and continue after April. I’m still going to pop back here though as I love seeing everyone’s lucky lines ☺️
