Hi Ladies,

So we seem to be absolutely hammering through our May Bus 2 thread. My gosh we can chat! But you have been vital to my sanity this cycle ❤️❤️❤️ I've tagged as many as i can think of at the end of a working week 🤯 please tag the others as I absolutely haven't the brain power!

@Juno231 I have no idea 🤷🏼‍♀️ I had a bit of light pink blood on the paper after DTD Friday morning, then yesterday morning I went to the loo and there was two splashes of red blood in my knickers so I put a pad on. There was a bit of dark brown blood on it when I replaced it a couple hours later and then nothing since? As much as I try to read up on it I can’t get any answers about implantation bleeding and what it might actually look like.

Congrats @Violetlilac and @Positivetime ! 🎉🎉🎉✨✨✨

@CoronaBaby and @unluckyducky I noticed you both mentioned about implantation bleeding with previous pregnancies, could you describe what that was like? I’m having issues and am very confused (see above) haha.

BabyDust13 · 10/05/2020 09:46

@Aimy1 good luck

CoronaBaby · 10/05/2020 09:46

@Newbie0818 with DD I had implantation bleeding I would compare it to spotting that was on the paper and in my undies. My friend also had it and would compare hers to a very light period. I think my blood was brownish red. I had nothing this time!

CoronaBaby · 10/05/2020 09:47

I am really hoping that this early positive and lack of spotting means I will have a stronger pregnancy this time 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

SandyN89 · 10/05/2020 09:48

Hi ladies hope your all well. Congratulations to the ladies with there BFP.

I'm pregnant and I'm 4weeks today. I didn't have implantation bleeding at all and no symptoms really apart from bloating and hell of a lot cramping that was intense since 10DPO. I had implantation bleeding but it was pinkish mucus color and only lasted a day. Each pregnancy and everyone's body is different. Hope this helps

RobinRose · 10/05/2020 09:49

@caronababy , @Violetlilac, and @Positivetime congratulations! 🥳

@MrsEmilyB woo I have a tww buddy! Another day of flashing smiley face 🤦‍♀️, hope it’s static tomorrow!

@Skyla01 it definitely feels less stressful, I know my signs af is coming so will just wait for them instead!

What a bloody lucky bus this is! 🍀 🤞

Madz123 · 10/05/2020 09:56

Congratulations to all the BFP's! Has anyone had any round ligament type of pain in the TWW? Probably around 8dpo (but who knows 🙄) and the only time I've had this pain was much further along in my pregnancy with my son so I'm confused! Also I've gone to reply to posts previously but realised I don't know how to actually reply to individual posts? How do you tag people? 😂 Technology is not my friend 🙈😂

MrsEmilyB · 10/05/2020 09:57

@Skip86 - I don't have a bullet! But I do have a G-tickler from Lovehoney which I seriously recommend. It's world-altering!! 😂🌍😳

@SmileyT - bbt dropped this morning, however that isn't unusual for ovulation day for me. We DTD again this morning, purely for the fun of it 😉 but always helps to have a bit more in there. Not sure he'd have any sperm left after last night though haha. We'll do a last hurrah tomorrow probably too, then let ourselves recover haha. I'm not sure I could keep quiet, or that he wouldn't cotton on, but I'd love to! How are you doing?

@juno231 - my highest high was 25 before my real high/peak. So really not anything strong. Do you do bbt too?

@Violetlilac - definitely positive! Congrats!

@vintagemoo - don't forget implantation can happen up to 12dpo so you're not out yet!

@Positivetime - another BFP!!! woohoo!! So happy for you!!! This is definitely the luckiest bus. I'm hoping it continues!

@RobinRose - my LH was 44 this morning so is falling. According to Femometer it thinks I ovulated this morning in that case. Natural Cycles still saying tomorrow. DTD again this morning. How are you keeping up with all the baby dancing???

@MrsEmilyB sounds like you’ve got things covered whatever day you ovulate! It’s going surprisingly well actually, every other day and in the morning seems to work nicely! We haven’t been able to do it this much before! How are you getting on?

Littlepeas2 · 10/05/2020 10:21

@mrsemilyb you are superwoman. I feel knackered just reading about how much you have DTD 🤣 I’m proud when I cover 4 days in the fertile week!!

Fluffkins14 · 10/05/2020 10:21

@RobinRose may I ask how long you've had your flashing smiley? And what CD you are? Are you only using the clearblue test?

I'm currently CD16 3rd day of flashing smiley, IC OPKs are starting to show a rise though?

@Fluffkins14 flashy smiley since CD8 I think, ( I forgot to check the symbol CD7) I’m now CD12 using clear blue digital advanced so 5 days flashing smiley. I have ovulated around CD11 the past 2/3 months so hoping it turns static tomorrow! I’ve not tried using ICs

How are you finding things this cycle? What cycle are you on?

MrsEmilyB · 10/05/2020 11:12

@littlepeas2 - 14 days out of 19! Not to count the time we DTD 4 times in a day 😝 my poor foof. I think I'll be glad we have June off if I don't catch this time - celibacy awaits hahaha. NGL I've loved it haha.

@RobinRose - my vagina has eroded 😂😂 I feel like we are 19 all over again!

I'm not getting the email notifications when I'm tagged anymore 😩 gonna go and snoop my settings to see if they've changed

Hi everyone, I’ve been following the may bus threads for a while so thought I’d finally try joining in!
Not really sure how long we’ve been trying because we were trying last year but then I got a new job so we pressed pause on it but now we’re back trying again.
Im currently 15dpo and AF is 1 day late but I’m pretty sure she’s on the way as I’m getting all my usual cramps.
Fingers are still crossed as the news would time perfectly to tell OH as an anniversary gift surprise. Will be picking up a test tomorrow if AF still hasn’t arrived.
Congrats to all the BFPs! Xx

Juno231 · 10/05/2020 11:27

@Positivetime ah I missed your post! Congratulations! This bus has had r most BFPs I've ever seen!!

Franklydear · 10/05/2020 11:35

@Newbie0818 my af seems to be a single day with a bit of spotting either end for the last few months, I am trying not to read bad sign into it

I am still having cramps, but not so bad, last evening/night was unreal, but as I had different symptoms every period, I really can tell, cd 20 today, 7-8 dpo so, to wait...

Franklydear · 10/05/2020 11:36

Congrats to all the positives!!! What a lucky bus!

Positivetime · 10/05/2020 11:48

Thank you so much everyone! I just hope it sticks. And I hope this positive month brings great news for you all in the coming weeks. Thank you all for your help x

Skyla01 · 10/05/2020 12:03

@Positivetime lovely to see another BFP!

@Newbie0818 the plot thickens! Was this bleeding anything like your usual AF? You've had a pretty wacky cycle so far so could mean anything, however it's possible it was implantation. When would you expect AF if you count from the LH surge you detected?

WildButterfly · 10/05/2020 12:15

@positivetime Faint line but I can definitely see it, congrats! 🎉🎉🎉

SmileyT · 10/05/2020 12:18

@lorylondon yeah I use the femometer strips aswell and it's nice to track them alongside CB so it makes sense. Haven't heard of any oestrogen only strips but that doesn't mean they don't exist.

@ZRS86 I'm feeling you on not symptom spotting so much, pre- AF and early pg are so similar I'm the same as you and trying to keep busy (unsuccessfully over a long weekend in lockdown when DP is working)

@Skyla01 I'm trying to desperately plan for stuff to change for next cycle so I'm not too disappointed when AF arrives but it's hard 😕

@Positivetime amazing news, today's BFP is come in early and continuing our 1 a day streak 🙌🏾 so happy for you xx

@Newbie0818 if it was a few hours I'd say it definitely can't be a full period as it wouldn't be able to shed your uterus lining in that time surely? I guess it's more important if it's unusual for you, if you normally have a full period then maybe this was just spotting.

@Aimy1 sorry about your CP hope this is a lucky month. I've only been tracking one full month but I found I had pain/ tugging around my ovaries in the first week post ovulation

@MrsEmilyB yeah my BBT dropped morning of ovulation day and rose the following day so that makes sense if ovulating today 🙌🏾 all through fertile period DP would be like 'is it time for me to fill you up again' after fertile period first time he asked I was like 'I'm full thanks' 😂 for me time is dragging and I can't even make up any symptoms but hopefully busy week at work next week will keep me occupied 🙄

Who is going to be tomorrow's BFP!?

WildButterfly · 10/05/2020 12:19

Morning ladies, got some spotting when wiping today. I’m on

WildButterfly · 10/05/2020 12:20

I’m supposedly according to flo, but could be AF as it’s the second cycle after removing the implant, so it’s a bit all over the place.
