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!

Thanks @OrangeJ and @TheLastStark

Definitely hoping the pain goes away quickly - didn't think such an early loss could be so painful! :-(

Franklydear · 15/05/2020 14:57

@ApplePie86 I am so sorry, be kind to yourself.

Does crying at newspapers article count as irrationality emotional, BBC's story of the woman who invented mother's Day and then died destitute trying to stop comercialization

MoonW · 15/05/2020 14:59

@ApplePie86 I’m so sorry to hear that Flowers

@Juno231 oh no!! Did they say anything?! 😱

@MrsEmilyB & @Juno231 thank you for your advice, may be I have then! Thank you for sharing your chart too, I do find it helpful to see others! It’s not generated a cover line yet as only does that once it guesses that you’ve ovulated, last month it was at 36.55 I believe

RobinRose · 15/05/2020 15:00

@ApplePie86 so sorry ☹️ I hope you are ok? Please do vent to us if you need too!

I have just worked out, as this thread moves pretty quick and it’s easy to lose track of where you are reading posts, if you bookmark the last post you have read, when you click on this thread from the main Conception page it takes to straight to the last post you have bookmarked! No more loosing track !

ApplePie86 · 15/05/2020 15:03

Thanks @RobinRose I'm totally fine. My only real concern was an ectopic as I'm aware how dangerous that could do. I'm just pleased that I managed to get a BFP at all after I stopped contraception in April 2016. PCOS has resulted in super long cycles so the chances of actually conceiving were so slim but I feel more positive now. Still not a very nice thing to go through but at least it doesn't seem to be as serious as it potentially could be Smile

@applepie86

I'm sorry you are having to go through this! I wish you all the very best for the June bus 🥰🥰

ApplePie86 · 15/05/2020 15:16

Thanks @firsttimetry I will definitely be there in a couple weeks I'm sure!

MoonW · 15/05/2020 15:21

@RobinRose thank you for the tip about bookmarking the post, that’s so helpful!

@ApplePie86 I’m sorry you’re having to go through this, but that’s good that you’re feeling positive and wishing you all the best for the next month, but equally please feel free to let it all on here 💕

NemoBear7 · 15/05/2020 15:36

Really sorry! Hope you feel better soon! @ApplePie86

MrsRSS · 15/05/2020 15:55

I am on cycle 1 TTC. Had a miscarriage in January (molar pregnancy). I’m 29 and on cd22. Due to test on 19th/20th if I can hold out that long

Madz123 · 15/05/2020 16:03

@MrsEmilyB @unluckyducky @Aimy1 just took another ovulation test and it's gone down to 36 so not sure what's happening. I had a 47 day cycle last month (the same as a few others on here!?- how strange) so not too unlikely to have a late ovulation. I'll be honest I bought both internet cheapies of ovulation and pregnancy tests so have been taking both at the same time for the last week 🙈 and have been getting BFNs so unless the tests are dodgy I doubt I'm pregnant tbh. Thanks everyone for the advice!

@ApplePie86 I'm so so sorry to hear about that- try and look after yourself ☹️☹️❤️

MrsEmilyB · 15/05/2020 16:04

@ApplePie86 - I am so so sorry. And you're handling it so bravely. I cannot imagine the devastation. Please know we are all here for you. 🌈

@RobinRose thanks for the bookmark info! Super helpful!

@mrsrss - welcome and good luck! This thread will likely migrate to another over the weekend as we are running out of space, but we'll post it here and please come with us!

@mrsEmilyB over the weekend😂 give till 5...
@RobinRose thanks, that’s gonna save my sanity... great tip
Nothing to report from me, uncomfortable tummy, big boob and a bit of nausea... I ordered a couple of test with my weekly shopping!

Aimy1 · 15/05/2020 16:19

@Madz123 I had heard that ovulation tests can sometime pick up pregnancy that's why I asked. Fingers crossed for you.
The temptation test is killing me but I've told myself not buy any until af is missed as the other months, I've brought them and then come on!

inthestars90 · 15/05/2020 16:34

@MoonW have attached mine from this month/last month. It gets clearer with time but is by no means ever the same! Confusing isn't it. Looking at yours I think you did so good luck!

MrsEmilyB · 15/05/2020 16:42

@franklydear - when does your shop arrive?! With all your symptoms I am so invested in you peeing on a stick. How many dpo are you now?

5dpo and not much to report here today! Boring! Still very tired but that could be the progesterone. Happily - no headache! ❤️ I know that over the weekend the symptom spotting will kick in and I'll be a bit of a mess. Hoping some fertility yoga will keep me calm!

MoonW · 15/05/2020 16:50

@Franklydear fingers crossed for you, all sounds promising!

@inthestars90 thank you for sharing your chart, definitely can be very confusing!

Franklydear · 15/05/2020 16:54

@MrsEmilyB test in the house!! Dh now wants me to test Sunday and then again Wednesday if needed, still determined to wait, I think I am 12-13 dpo.

Franklydear · 15/05/2020 16:55

@MoonW, I don’t want to get too exited because it sounded promising before, of 7 cycles I tested 5, I want to have a chance when I do.

OrangeJ · 15/05/2020 16:56

@RobinRose the bookmark thing is brilliant 👏 thank you!

@Franklydear you have got quite a few symptoms over there 🤞

@MrsEmilyB did you say you were going to look at how to increase your progesterone? I think I saw Inge Fleur but a video up a day or two ago about that.

I’m 8dpo tomorrow. I have 2 internet cheapie early tests, 2 frers, 3 cheapie normal dip sticks and 1 Clear Blue digital. I have had no symptoms though but know that from tomorrow only time will tell how quickly I waste the ICs 😂 (yes, I stocked up at the beginning of lockdown when deliveries were taking forever!)

Franklydear · 15/05/2020 16:58

@OrangeJ you’re not sort of test there, I don’t think I could help it with so many test
Who is starting a new threat, we need a good title

SmileyT · 15/05/2020 17:09

@unluckyducky ahh so glad that you had that special moment with DP 🥰 don't worry about me actually knowing the answer meant I woke up and felt okay apart from the banging head, a mad busy day at work meant that I didn't have time to mope either xx

Congrats @Skyla01 🥳 this thread gives me hope that it will happen for me at some point ❤️

Welcome @Nicolet91 xx

@ApplePie86 I'm so sorry that it is looking like a CP, I really did hope that this would be your month... I know it is no consolation now but at least you know the sperm is meeting the egg and you can try again when you're ready xx

@Franklydear all sounding very promising 🙏

@Juno231 this actually made me Lol walking down the street 😂 me and my friend were slagging off my managers shitty conference calls the other day and then we realised that we'd joined audio on skype and dialled in and one wasn't on mute... my manager was just like 'somebody isn't on mute' so hoping she didn't recognise our voices 😂

Sorry I've missed loads of replies out but hope everyone is doing well, last couple of days work has been mad in the office and it's impossible to keep up 🙈

Nicolet91 · 15/05/2020 17:16

Ladies!!!!
NOT BABY RELATED
I cant tell anyone until my dad is home from work but I have to tell someone!!!
The man of my dreams and soulmate asked me to marry him today!!!!
And I cant figure out how to attach a pic!!
I have 2 girls to a previous marriage that ended in lies and deceit and I never thought I would have the chance again!!
I'm so happy emotional and scared all at once!!! ❤❤

OrangeJ · 15/05/2020 17:18

Aaaahhh!!! Omg!!! @nicolet91! Congratulations 🥳 🍾 that’s amazing! Enjoy every minute. Congrats again 💕

NemoBear7 · 15/05/2020 17:20

Wow! Congratulations! @Nicolet91 That’s fantastic news!🥳

Me and my partner got engaged at the end of March. No rings or wedding plans yet with the Coronavirus yet though. Ah well! 😏
