Hoops, Rings and May Bus 3 Things!

[MrsEmilyB]

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!

@RobinRose @babyG123 @SmileyT @Ltay2 @Positivetime @GingerBaby89 @Sausage1990 @firsttimetry @Minster2012 @coronababy

@Newbie0818 those links are actually a great help. Thank you. WOW the second definitely graphic but great to actually learn what the cervix looks like.

My cycles have been 30/31 days ovulating around CD16 took supplements during AF now no ovulation symptoms or positive digital or OPKs 😩 there have risen slightly but not near positive.

Feeling like I've messed this cycle up for myself and should of kept things how they was 😥

@MrsEmilyB haha I actually got envy of everyone having more data than me so been forcing myself up at 5.30 everyday to get the bloody BBT readings. Was kinda hoping it would drop a couple days before so I had a warning sign but it's good to be aware it will probs happen the day before or same day. The downside to testing late is I'll be pretty convinced it's positive and devastated if it's not 😩

Evening ladies...I’m sorry to be a worrier but I naturally am...I’ve been thinking it over and I realised I read my test 5 mins after peeing on it not 3 mins, there’s no chance that faint line could be a evaporation line could there? I made the mistake of reading that even exists and now I’ve worried myself! Would anyone be able to advise if I’m worrying over nothing? It was a clear blue early one I used.

@positivetime how many dpo are you? Test again in the morning with first urine?

Definitely test again in the morning @Positivetime but just remember that false positives are very very rare. The test has to react with hcg to get a coloured line so unless it's faulty there should not be a coloured line on there because it was a few mins over. I know it's stressful but try not to worry, you have 9 months left so need to space it out. Let us know how you get on tomorrow xx

Thank you. I’m just waiting for a FRER to arrive tomorrow.
@Violetlilac I think I’m either 10-11dpo

@positivetime that's still early then! Try FMU tomorrow 🤞

@Positivetime I read the same as @SmileyT that if the test line has colour then it doesn’t matter when it shows up, it’s a positive. But hope you can put your mind at ease today and you get a blazing bfp ✨

Is anyone else 3dpo? My temps have now confirmed I ovulated on Friday. Kind of feel as though we’ve not done enough this cycle as we only DTD Wed & Thu 😔

Thinking positively though, I’m so pleased with my shorter cycle this time round and that I won’t feel the need to test early 😅

@Newbie0818 Oh. My. Lord. That article is FASCINATING 😳 I have honestly never thought about my cervix much but I feel so enlightened now! Wow. And the husband taking photos of her cervix throughout the cycle - what a man!

@Positivetime I am confident you have nothing to worry about as that CB line was quite strong, but the FRER should be clear and reassuring for you today. Good luck 🥰

Meanwhile I somehow managed to screw up my first day of CB digi opk and got an error message. Such a letdown after waiting patiently for so long to POAS! Hopefully won't make too much of a difference if I start from scratch again tomorrow on CD 9.

Think I am out. Still bleeding which started out as a few spots yesterday. Annoying as usually have a 31/32 day cycle. This would make it 26 days.

@ZRS86 I’m sure it’s not the supplements as I’ve only had 2 tablets from the pack so far 🤣 but yes I’ve read those reviews too. I think there may be something else going on.

@popcorndiva Ah sorry to hear that. That's frustrating. Roll on next month.

@Positivetime I agree with others, and I don't think that that short amount of time would have made too much of a difference. Fingers crossed your FRER confirms that this morning.

@eljoy @MrsEmilyB @CoronaBaby
Thanks for the reassurance. I'm trying not to think about things too much which is why I haven't been online as often.
Now 11 DPO but I won't test again till Thursday I think. Have some FRERs in the post arriving tomorrow.

Hope everyone is doing well ❤️

@OrangeJ @skip86 they’re interesting aren’t they!

@Fluffkins14 I’m sure you haven’t messed up your chances, ttc can sometimes mess up your cycles, but if you think it’s the supplements perhaps change to just folic acid?

@popcorndiva is the bleeding full on?

So here’s one for everyone. Last night I woke up in agony, like really thought I’d ruptured something where my right ovary is and was squirming in pain. This pain came and went for 20 mins then disappeared altogether. Only ever had this once whilst on the pill and the doctors did ultrasounds etc and they found nothing. Any ideas what it may be?

I’ve stopped bleeding now and only have light brown stuff when I wipe every now and then (tmi sorry).

@Newbie0818 not full on no, but more than just spotting and is bright red. Will assume this is my period but double check with a hcg test at the weekend. Reason enough to eat chocolate today though

BFN on an internet cheapie this morning 🙄 I had been thinking all week that I defo wouldn't get pregnant this cycle but then had some strange cramping for the last few day and then yesterday my boobs felt bigger and were tingly all day (same this morning) so I actually thought it could have been positive 😕 so confusing!

@popcorndiva definitely eat all of the chocolate today regardless, how long is your LP normally? It could be something other than AF if it's not in full flow, even if it is bright red so still keeping my fingers crossed for you.

@Madz123 our bodies are so cruel that all the pre-AF symptoms are the same as early pg, how many dpo are you? Could you be testing too early?

Morning all happy Monday 🥳🥳🥳

Cautiously leaving this here at 10dpo

Trying to remain calm but failing

@BabyDust13 congratulations 🥳!! That’s a great line!

Is someone keeping tally how many BFPs this bus has had?!

@BabyDust13 congratulations!

@SmileyT I'm not really sure as my cycles have been messed up and I wasn't charting but I reckon 8-11dpo so I suppose it could be too early?

I sneak back and look for exciting news!

@BabyDust13 congratulations graduate

The May Group Graduates. RING HOOP BULLET. www.mumsnet.com/Talk/birth_clubs/3902964-the-may-group-graduates-ring-hoop-bullet

I believe you're number 12 to graduate! 🙌🏽👶🏼

@BabyDust13 congratulations!!

Thanx for the reassurance guys. I’ve done some yoga this morning to help calm my mood. Really helped. Unfortunately the FRER’s haven’t shown up yet so I guess I get to wait another day to test tomorrow am.

@BabyDust13 Another one of our little group has graduated 🙌🏾🥳🙌🏾 Congratulations and what a bloody strong line for 10dpo I'm guessing a boy 🤗 this is cycle 9 isn't it? Anything you changed this month?

We have our BFP for the day... Who is next to test @ZRS86 @Juno231 @Franklydear ??

@BabyDust13 wow congratulations!! Beautiful line at 10DPO! Did you jump straight to a FRER or did you try an IC first? As this is cycle 4 for me I'm loathe to waste a good FRER but then I always worry the ICs might not be good enough to pick up on it. How many cycles did this take you in the end?

@SmileyT I'm only 8 DPO today but am getting tempted to give it a go on Wed 🙊. AF due this weekend.

@SmileyT yes cycle 9 I didn't really do anything different apart from probably eating a bit better and attempting to use OPKs

Thanks everyone I think this bus is super lucky 🍀
