TTC September 2020 Bus

[samantha06]

Good morning everyone!
Ive been on a few threads now since i started ttc baby no.3 in june.
Unfortunately in August i did get my BFP, but it ended in a chemical pregnancy, so back on another ttc thread with all you lovely ladies.

Share you stories and join!
My next AF due 20th September.

Sending you all baby dust🥰

[quote stepmumSW5]@SarahMumof1DS a multisupplement pill - seven seas. It even made me miss a period. Imagine me testing abs getting bfns with no period when I've always been regular [/quote]
But actually I've literally only just started folic acid in the last week so it can't be that. But I didn't know that supplements could give you pregnancy symptoms that's odd and very confusing I bet! It's confusing at the best of times isn't it!

@SarahMumof1DS my symptoms started as soon as I stated taking SS. I'm now just taking plain folic acid and had no more issues. Here's hoping to our bfps!

@stepmumSW5 sorry what's SS?
Are you on a new cycle?
I'm still yet for AF Saturday but getting spotting today and cramps and feel a repeat of last few months is likely. Yes Positive vibes for BFP's!!

Hi @wantabunintheoven The apps are as good as the data you give them and the algorithms do vary. I've given mine about 18 months of data and my cycle only varies by a couple of days a month. Some apps are more suited to people who record BBT, I'm too chaotic for that so I use one which takes CM into consideration. I only give it periods and CM data and it lines up with my OPK. It's worth trying a few simultaneously to see which is most accurate and user friendly for you.

@SarahMumof1DS I'm not out yet as I'm just 6dpo but I am preparing myself mentally in case this cycle doesn't work and I have to join the September ttc. X

@stepmumSW5 fingers crossed for you. It's hard to be positive but equally prepare yourself for another failed month isn't it. I just went to the loo and looks like more pinkish red spotting starting so high chance of AF. It's so disheartening especially when you are clocking ov and timing the deed so well and then it doesn't happen. At least this month i started spotting 2 days before AF and not 4 which is an improvement I think lol. How long have you been trying? x

@LaceyMermaid good luck for your #4!🤞🏼😊

@SarahMumof1DS thanks! I’m 9dpo so not out for this month yet 🤞🏻

I started taking the seven seas trying for a baby yesterday and now I’m put off! I did take them last time but can’t remember if I would have already been pregnant when I started or not 🤷🏻‍♀️ I don’t want them messing up my cycle...

@LaceyMermaid not too long till you can test!

@SarahMumof1DS I know I’m debating whether to test or not. I found bfn last month quite depressing so not sure whether to wait until I’m late or not 🤔 it’s getting harder to resist!

I'm also 6dpo, are you having any symptoms at all? I know its early but I'm so gassy and bloated and very tired xx

Hi, I'm 38 had my implant taken out 2 1/2 weeks ago and now just waiting for AF so we can start trying properly, we've not been careful but doubt anything will happen this month. I've been taking folic acid for the past 6 weeks, eating healthier and exercising more. We do on holiday in 3 weeks so hoping AF arrives before then 🙏🏼

@BellaBella84

Yeah trying to concieve baby #1 with geriatric ovaries! 🤣

Haha me too 🙈

@Orlandoflorida1 I don't personally recommend seven seas but most people have no issues with it at all and even say it helped them conceive

@SarahMumof1DS is really hard indeed. Well we started after my period in June, but then I had no period until August due to Seven Seas. So I'm counting this as the first proper cycle that we are trying.

@LaceyMermaid I think it just depends whether it does you good to test earlier or leave it later. I've tried both ways. This month I tried doing a cheapie test line progression to see my earliest DPO detection (after having some promising prg symptoms) but only got to today (13 DPO) as think AF has started. But I find that AF arriving/spotting affects me more than seeing a negative test as like they say you're not out until you're out. I do BBT charting too and that makes me feel worse when I see my temp drop just before my period due date. At least with a negative test, it doesn't mean you're out until AF arrives.

@stepmumSW5 argh that's frustrating, missing a whole month because of the supplements. Hopefully you'll get regular cycles now, you never know, fx!
With my DS me and my husband weren't even trying and and I ovulated on CD9 and it just happened! Things can sometimes surprise you that's all I can say 😁.

I know what you mean @SarahMumof1DS I can’t decide which is worse as it’s only my second cycle TTC. I temp too but last time my temp only dropped once AF had started so no warning!

Oh really @LaceyMermaid, I've not had that happen yet but then I've only been temping 3 months. I've had so many different symptoms each month and just when you think you've experienced it all you get something else!

Hi all, I'm 11dpo but af symptoms and spotting so will be trying again mid sept

Hi @turtola, I'm 14 DPO and I've been getting strong intermittent cramps at night since around 11 DPO and spotting started last night and period like ache in pelvis so I thought that's it I'm out for this month. But flow has stayed light so far and I'm praying I'm not out yet. It's so hard waiting to see if AF comes (due tomorrow) or hoping it could be implantation spotting. Constantly swaying between the two.

Sorry to hear about AF guys!!! I really wish this was all as easy as I thought it was when I was younger. I just thought you had unprotected sex and got pregnant....at least that’s what we were told! 🙄

So true @LT103. My spotting has stopped this morning and cramping subsided, just got mild back ache. Been getting BFNs with ICs all week and another this morning. My temp dropped drastically this morning but I couldn't sleep last night till 2am and bedroom temp a lot cooler last night so could have affected my BBT maybe. I'm hanging onto the hope anyway. So have to wait wait wait for AF

Hi all, Hoping September will be a lucky month 🤞🏼 AF is due Sunday, 12dpo right now so not technically out this month but to be honest we didn’t try that hard this month and I can feel AF symptoms so I’m pretty confident she’s on the way. Sep testing date for me will be 27th so a while to wait!!
