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!

I don't know what to do!!!! Should I test with an FRER or wait for a couple of days?!?!?!AAAAHHHHH!!!!

Fluffkins14 · 11/05/2020 11:05

@RobinRose we seem to be sitting in the flashing smiley club 🤣 are you using OPKs sticks too?

What cycle are you on x

Mrsi2020 · 11/05/2020 11:07

@GingerBaby89 have you kept this morning pee?!

@Pixielou16 sorry hun :( it’s hard xxx

Franklydear · 11/05/2020 11:10

@ginger, hard to say, when is af due? I do squint a line, you can test and then again in a week
@pixie, it gets you down, doesn't it? I've been there too, I just took a break from the internet from like a week, I only have one group, this one, I don't need help getting obsessed, and I found you ladies very supportive, for the good and the bad, I also took a more whatever approach this month, still DTD but don't track anything, que será, será...

Fluffkins14 · 11/05/2020 11:12

@GingerBaby89 I think I can see a very faint peeping line, I'd definitely re test fingers crossed and lots of baby dust

Pixielou16 · 11/05/2020 11:14

@Franklydear I'm going to do the same this month I think! Already stopped tracking BBT because I don't think it's given me any more knowledge and I'm sixk of waking up at 6:30 every morning to test! Got a lie in this morning at least [grin]@GingerBaby89 I can see a faint line - perhaps a FRER would come up stronger compared to the IC. When are you due AF?

Fluffkins14 · 11/05/2020 11:17

@GingerBaby89 if it was me I'd been to impatient and do a FRER 🤣 but I'd also definitely test in a couple of days the line should be darker xx

GingerBaby89 · 11/05/2020 11:23

AF supposed to be due on Saturday according to Femometer but it usually predicts a 2 day longer cycle for some reason.

Why did I not save my pee?!?!?!

Skyla01 · 11/05/2020 11:34

@BabyDust13 that's a great line for 10dpo! And after 9 cycles it's really great to see a BFP!

@GingerBaby89 why don't you use your frer tomorrow morning? That should give you a clearer result.

My AF is due any day now. Trying not to think about it too much.

Skyla01 · 11/05/2020 11:35

@Newbie0818 I don't know what that pain could have been. Are you sure this is your period?

Sausage1990 · 11/05/2020 11:52

Congratulations @babydust13 🎉

@GingerBaby89 I definitely sera hint of a line. If it was me, I would try my best to wait 2 days to test of your frer as it takes 48hrs for the hcg to double... But I'd definitely take another ic tomorrow to track progress because we all now once you see a faint line you HAVE TO KEEP POAS!!! haha

I'm currently 7dpo and have had dull cramps on an off for days but today I have much more noticeable and uncomfortable cramping... I actually am going to run a warm bath to help ease it.

I'm trying not to over think it and become a symptom spotting crazy person but its hard. Xx

RobinRose · 11/05/2020 11:55

@Fluffkins14 yes! I’m using the clear blue digital? Flashing smiley faces are really pissing me off, give me my static already!! I don’t think I’m going to ovulate this month 😩.

I am on cycle 8! How about you? x

BabyG123 · 11/05/2020 12:08

@GingerBaby89 let's hope you're graduate number 14!!! 🤞🏼👶🏼 looks like it xx

BabyDust13 · 11/05/2020 12:11

@BabyG123 was I number 13?

MrsEmilyB · 11/05/2020 12:33

@babydust13 - OH YEAAAAHHH MAMA!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

@firsttimetry - it's been exactly the same in our household. I think it's the first time guys have been under pressure to really perform! I'm trying to avoid saying we "have" to have sex.

@RobinRose - ugh idk. A marginal temp increase this morning but nothing major. However, my temp rise is often sluggish (terrified I have low progesterone and not sure how to fix it). Ahh nooooo. Does it give any advice for prolonged periods of flashing smileys? As long as you're DTD every other day you're covered xx

@GingerBaby89 @becky239 @unluckyducky - I'm gonna stop you right there ladies. Implantation can happen up to 12dpo so you're not out by any means!! Also @GingerBaby89 is the line coloured or grey?

@Pixielou16 - I've had a diet overhaul to a fertility diet. Happy for you to ask questions! This ttc malarkey is so draining. Keep going!

Juno231 · 11/05/2020 12:35

@GingerBaby89 that looks so promising!! 🤞

Girls I hate that I'm getting my hopes up - this is the second day of sharp twinges and pulls on my lower right abdomen so I so so hope this is implantation 🤞🤞🤞

Fluffkins14 · 11/05/2020 12:37

@RobinRose I'm feeling like that too! 4th day of the flashing I really wasn't smiling 🤣 I'm CD 17 feeling like I'm not going to ovulate either I keep getting twinges in my right ovary area but CM is basically none existant this cycle, I think my body is trying but not going to happen 😥
This is currently cycle 9

becky239 · 11/05/2020 12:39

@MrsEmilyB yes that is true but it is so hard not to get yourself down I've been gutted all morning! Think I will wait until AF is due and if she doesn't show up then test again as I can't cope with BFN's @GingerBaby89 that looks promising to me! Look forward to hearing when you retest and get your BFP - I feel like I should check mine again but it went straight in the bin in a strop this morning after not noticing an immediate line🙈

Newbie0818 · 11/05/2020 12:48

@Skyla01 It’s not like any period I’ve ever had before, but then my body has no clue what’s going on. I think I’m going to do a pg test at the end of this week to put my mind to rest, if it’s negative I’ll assume it was a weird period.
Am I stupid for being paranoid that I’m going into early menopause at 27?!

RobinRose · 11/05/2020 12:59

@Fluffkins14 tell me about it! I’m on 6th day of flashing smiley, cd13. Thought I would have had a static by now as the last few months I have ovulated by cd12 🤔 I have had a few twinges in the left this morning but I don’t have my usual ovulation boobs ☹️ My cm was (sorry tmi) quite slippery a couple of days ago and it’s been very watery but now... it seems to have vanished 😞Wth is going on?! 😑 I really don’t think it’s doing to happen for me either!

@MrsEmilyB Try not to panic! Hopefully you’ll have a clear indication of when you have ovulated soon. I think after 9 flashy smiles it says to stop? Hopefully going to continue dtd every other day this week but I just don’t think I’m going to ovulate! Bloody typical.

Fluffkins14 · 11/05/2020 13:01

@newbie0818 no not stupid I also have been paranoid aged 25 🤣 I think our brains just do crazy things to us ladies tbh x

RobinRose · 11/05/2020 13:04

@Newbie0818 no I have been paranoid too, age 26! Ttc sure does mess with your head

Fluffkins14 · 11/05/2020 13:04

@RobinRose hopefully the twinges are our bodies trying.. maybe just a longer cycle

I think I'm just trying to clutch onto anything possible that I will ovulate even if it is late on than usual, fingers crossed you get you static this week

RobinRose · 11/05/2020 13:06

@Fluffkins14 me too, can but hope! Fingers crossed you get your static too 🤞

Sausage1990 · 11/05/2020 13:15

@Juno231oh I am so with you... I'm quietly gritting my hopes up too.. I lnl wk shouldn't and I'm telling myself I'm not but I am. I have had cramps this morning and both my boobs are feeling achey today, I have cm that's a mix of watery/creamy/ewcm & last night I really struggled to sleep even tho I was exhausted.

The unable to sleep/insomnia is niche I appreciate but the only other time I've had a whisper or pregnancy was before my chemical in January I just could not sleep. I was tired and could nap in the day but st bedtime I just could not get off to sleep. M so naturally I assumed if was an early pregnancy thing and after last night I'm like omg is this happening again?!

I literally have no proof or way of knowing but I can't help but get my hopes up, especially with so many BFPs on this thread... You're not alone in those feelings @Juno231 xx
