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

@Mrsi2020 Wait and do another one tomorrow morning with the first urine and you might get your BFP. 🤞🏻

@nemobear7 thanks . I’m not that hopeful lol xx

Hi ladies!
I'm new to this and dont really know what I'm doing! This is my second month trying! I'm on CD 16! Im not sure when I would be ovulating but I had what I can only describe as a light bleed :/ just the once and a few cramps today! Im terrified as I had a chemical pregnancy last month and it broke my heart! :( Is it possible for there to be an Implantation bleed 2 weeks before AF is due to arrive?? I never followed my cycle or ovulation with my DD so this is all new to me!
Any and all advise is welcome!!
Thank you

@Mrsi2020 a false positive is rare, maybe try again in the morning. I have a ds10, I am not so much worried about problems this time around, other than not happening, we’ve been debating all these years trying to find the right time and in November we said sod it, whatever happens (clairvoyant we are), but I worry it may not happen at all...
also so far no sign of af yet...

When are you going to test? Thanks I really hope I get a bfp tomorrow 🤞🏻 Xxx

@Nicolet91, we are a funny and opinionated bunch, very helpful too, a wiser one will come along in a minute, I am quite clueless as well, never plaid much attention before either

I am planning to test on Thursday 🙈 af could be as far as Saturday, it feels several years away...

@Nicolet91 I’m not v knowledgeable either - it’s my first month tracking and I don’t know much yet. Fingers crossed for you xx

@franklydear fingers crossed for you. xx

@Franklydear I'm glad I'm not the only one! As I said I'm new to this and I have enjoyed reading through all posts!! yous seem like a lovely bunch that's why I picked this thread!! I'm just so confused in all this and I'm putting so much stress on myself! Trying to have a cuppa decaf tea and relax as im off the wine for the time being lol! X

@Mrsi2020 fingers crossed for you too! I'm trying to get as much info as possible but google just isn't making sense to me atm xx

Aw no @mrsi2020. You are early though so fingers crossed tomorrow or maybe even day after.

I’m 6 dpo and felt some short sharp jabbing pains earlier. But think I had that last month too and wasn’t pg so maybe I’m gearing up for AF.

Hi @Nicolet91 I’m sorry I can’t offer much advice either. I would have said a week before could be implantation bleeding. Maybe two weeks before could be ovulation bleeding? I think I’ve read about that before but never actually heard anyone say they’ve had it.

Oh quick question 🙏 I’ve started taking these tablets to help with my pcos.

I was taking just myo-inositol powder form for a few months and my cycle this time round seemed shorter so think it did some good.

With these new ones though, they contain folate, so do I need to keep taking folic acid as well? Is it possible to take too much?

@SmileyT omg I hope you’re ok! Sorry about bfn but like others have said, it’s still not over x

@Mrsi2020 sorry about bfn :( I’ve had a couple of faint positives with blue dye tests, but they were Tesco cheapies and are apparently notorious for false positives. But like @Franklydear said a false pos is very rare, so I’d wait and use fmu 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼✨✨✨

Hey @OrangeJ

I was taking similar to those tablets you've linked but mine were MyOva. I believe the recommended dose is 4000mg but your ones say only 2 per day. I took 2 in morning and 2 at night. I also took folic acid sk was taking 600 of that (more than recommended 400).

I've been getting BFP tests last 4 days but also been spotting for about 2+ weeks so not holding out much hope - but a step in the right direction!

I only started taking them mid December and if I genuine am pregnant or have a chemical or whatever, this would only have been the 2nd cycle where it was possible for me to conceive (3 full cycles - first one didn't DTD at all at the right time).

@Nicolet91 welcome! I'd say at CD16 this is likely to be ovulation bleeding and very unlikely to be implantation. Hope you'll enjoy the chat on here, we get quite rowdy 😁

@SmileyT so sorry to hear about your day. Hope you are ok after your fall!!

@Skyla01 I’m due AF Sunday. How about you?

Welcome @Nicolet91 !!

Good evening everyone 👋🏻 I've had a day off here due to a busy work day and just been catching up on 5 pages (!!!) while having a warm bath.

@MrsEmilyB my headaches havnt gone either. I had a migraine Tuesday and a headache yesterday and today... Although I thought I was okay today until early evening and it's come back but like you, thankfully not a migraine.

I can't remember who mentioned it because it was pages ago lol but I've had alot if cm too. Sorry if this is tmi but it's watery and sometimes like ecwm but not always as stretchy and clear with milky colour mixed up. I don't know if this means af is on her way or if it's a good sign.

Flo predicts af tomorrow but I'm only 10dpo so I don't know what to think. I've been consulting Dr Google who advised me it can be a sign on early pregnancy or it can be a sign that af is in her way - so Google & I are currently not in speaking terms haha

And also I am so glad I'm not the only one who looks at maternity wear and baby clothes while day dreaming about "one day"... Finger crossed we won't have to wait too long 🤞🏻

@ApplePie86 thank you for the advice. I’ll use these ones up and maybe try those ones next. Omg you’ve been getting bfps? That’s so exciting. Keeping my fingers crossed for you 😬

@SmileyT OMG! Are you ok!?

Fingers crossed to those testing in the morning ✨ x

@OrangeJ actually, they look like the same thing anyway except for their recommended dose so as long as you take 4 a day just take whichever ones cheapest I guess.

Yeah definite BFP but can't really get excited yet...meant to be 16/17DPO but no real line progression. Not really got my hopes up but I'm just happy that even if it doesn't progress, I'm on the right path!

Hopefully things will happen really quickly for you from here on in!

@Sausage1990 me with the CM! I had two lots today. Quite thin and stretchy, similar to EWCM but like you, I have seen it’s common just before AF too and I’m due on Sunday! Literally every symptom is the same as an AF one 🙄

@littlepeas and @Sausage1990, me too, I never noticed before, I only noticed because it is so uncomfortable...
Literally every symptom, I don’t even know why I try to spot anymore, af due Saturday, the latest, but I trust no one, so trying to wait till Thursday to test, that would be the longest cycle

Thank you lovelies!!
I didn't no ovulation bleeding was a thing and it's very possible it could be that!
Thank you!!

Ahhh thank you for replying @Littlepeas2 & @Franklydear I was so glad to read I wasn't alone. Looks like we're all due af around the same time... I think @SmileyT is too.

Are you getting any other "symptoms"? I keep flicking back and forth between the symptoms I logged over the last few cycles to see if theres any difference and I can't day there is... Except this woozy/dizzy feeling I've had a few times in an off over the lady 2 days.. And the fact my headache is now been about 3 days long. Xx

@Mrsi2020 @lorylondon @MrsEmilyB @Skyla01 @Newbie0818 @Littlepeas2 @OrangeJ

Thanks ladies I'm all good now thanks 🙈 DP brought me squashies, salted caramel twix and pizza, watched working moms (where a mum gets a static smiley, sex in a bathroom and baby 9months later 😂) and had a G&T.

I know that 12dpo and not using fmu isn't conclusive but for now I'm okay with just accepting this result, AF due Saturday night/ Sunday morning so if it's not here next week maybe I'll test again but don't think this is our month. Will be watching the lucky thread to see who else graduates in the next couple weeks xxx

I also have had loads of Milky CM noting everything this month so I know what is normal for me xx

Actually this cycle I have had much more watery/ecwm than I usually get... In previous cycles I've logged creamy cm but who freaking knows at this point?! 😂
