April 2021 TTC Bus:-)

[Lollipop25]

Hi ladies, our March 2021 TTC Bus seems to be full up, would be a shame not to continue. So looking forward to sharing all our BFP's 🤗
I'm sorry if I forgot some people, totally unintentional. Quite a lot on the other thread.

I’m officially back in the TWW and looking for anything to keep my mind busy🤣🤞🏻 Hopefully working full time and a potential house move should do it! Baby dust to everyone✨ Xx

@Court2611 any tips for not driving myself crazy during the 2ww is greatly appreciated 🤣

@Lee0511 I wish I had some but I’m the worst, constant symptom spot and start testing way too early! I only have 1 test left and I’m refusing to buy anymore until I’m due on haha so hopefully going to hold out until then. Only 13 more days to go🤣

Hi all...
Quick question...
I always dont tend to sleep well around ovulation

Anyway got my positive opks this weekend
I woke early yesterday and I woke early today

Do I alter my temps to the usual time on FF or do I put in the time they are?

It may alter my cross hairs ..

@Mum2Girls19 I would probably set an alarm every day to wake up at the time u wake around ovulation so you wake up at the same time every day if possible. Eg if u usually sleep until 8:30 but around ovulation you tend to wake at 7, I'd set an alarm for 7 every day and take ur temp at the same time every day. And then go back to sleep if u want. It's not a huge deal, my temps vary by maybe 15-20 mins every day. But no more. Last week I had to get up at 5am one morning, I usually get up at 7:15, my temp took a huge drop and through everything off, over a degree reduction because of time of day. So it does make a difference. Depends how important temps are to you. I really only rate them around ovulation

@Mum2Girls19 I second what @spttc said - I have an alarm set for 5:30 because that’s the latest I find I won’t wake up before naturally generally...I just do my temp and go straight back to sleep

@TigerDaisy @spttc

What do I do about the last 2 days??
They are crucial days too

@Mum2Girls19 I wouldn't stress about it. Are you looking for temp rise for ovulation? The past 2 days? Did it rise? If you woke earlier than usual and it was still up I'd say u can count them as being well up.

My temps are a bit higher this cycle as I'm now using a bite guard on my lower teeth to stop me grinding them in my sleep so my mouth is warmer when I wake! Hopefully when I get my ovulation rise it will show 😬 tracking opk with LH strips so should catch it

Hey ladies, I wonder if any of you could give me some insight?

I'm on CD29, AF is usually due around now. Yesterday, I took a test with 20 miu sensitivity (Superdrug own brand) which I know is not that sensitive and it was negative. Am I being stupid in thinking there is still a chance or should I just wait for AF now? I have some FRER arriving today and don't want to waste one tomorrow if I don't need to.

@Charm23 no not stupid at all, you're not out until AF shows! Do you know when you ovulated? I'd be tempted to test again in a day or so if still not AF, hopefully it will be a late positive 🤞

Morning ladies, almost certain I’m out, cycle day 28 for me, I believe AF due any day, took a FRER and got a BFN feeling a bit down today, just wish AF would arrive now so I know!! Feeling extremely moody which is a defo AF symptom for me!!

@Charm23 looks like we are in a similar boat, it’s the most frustrating bit of the TWW isn’t it, the last fews days!!
Good luck to you, hoping you get a BFP in a day or two x

Morning all,

My temps are increasing as high as Id like
I am 4 dpo apparently
But I havent been feeling well this week

Maybe that has something to do with it?
Advice...before I read to much into this lol

@Willow1982 you never know, you’re still in until af arrives. It’s so hard the tww. I’m due on Monday and have a busy weekend planned so I’m hoping that will help keep my mind off it! Fingers crossed for you! xx

@dunkedbiscuit Unfortunately, no. I've never had much luck with OPKs or anything and tbh it stresses me out trying to monitor stuff like temps/cm etc. so I don't actually know when I ovulate each month. Luckily, I have a DD who is 15m so I know I can get pregnant/do ovulate. I'm thinking I may wait and test on Friday if AF isn't here by then.

@Willow1982 Aww thank you, I hope so too. I can't help but be hopeful but don't want to be too optimistic. When is your AF due and will you be testing again soon?

I don't have any symptoms at all, PMS or pregnancy but then I didn't when I got my BFP with DD so I think I may just wait a couple of days. I need to be more patient!!

Thanks @Twochews78 it’s so hard having that little bit of hope in my heart, when my head knows I’m out! Fingers crossed for you too, I’m thinking by the weekend AF will defo have arrived! Least I can eat unhealthy stuff all weekend then!!! xx
@Charm23 well it’s all a bit of a mystery as to when AF is actually due, until I started TTC I assumed I had the regular 28 day cycle like you do, now I’m actually tracking I think it could be a wee bit longer, unfortunately I had an early MC in March so this is my first cycle since then and properly tracking! I think I will have a much better idea of what my actual cycles are in a couple of months, I just never really took note before!
I don’t think I’ll test again until at least Saturday, I can’t bare to keep seeing the BFN, plus I shall be out of tests soon, which I think will be a good thing!!!
I’ll have my fingers crossed on Friday for you xx

Can I have some help please, I'm suppose to be 3DPO today, few days ago after dtd I wiped and had pink discharge, I thought maybe ovulation bleed? Then today I have wiped and had more pink discharge only now when I went to the toilet it's pink with the odd streak of bright red. I'm now thinking AF has arrived, however I have only had my peak a few days ago and temps fit in with this, but on cycle day 11 I had a near positive opk and slight drop on temp too, but it wasn't positive on day 11, I'm now so confused as to what is happening, I will attach my charts and test from cycle day 11 until now x

Cycle day 11 below

Here is my cycle now wouldn't let me attached all in one thread

Sorry @amyannx I'm rubbish with opks and don't temp so not much help to you I'm afraid. Is it possible the initial rise on cd11 was attempted ovulation? Then your most recent is correct. With the slight pink bleeding, I'm not sure, maybe ovulation bleed like you say? Good luck, hope you figure it out, I'm sure someone more knowledgable can answer you :)

@Sam8582 thank you! I had a few cramps but now the bleeding stopped. Did a fr and it's negative, just gutted if it's ovulation bleeding as last dtd on Monday but my ovulation test went back down so hopefully if it is ovulation bleeding it's Late bleeding, my app predicts I'm 4dpo today x

Well the bad news is AF has arrived today, good news is it’s cycle day 29 so I’m counting that as a nice regular first full cycle post MC, I feel I have a better understanding of timings now, bring on the May TTC bus!!
Good luck to all those still waiting to test 🍀

@Willow1982 sorry to hear that! But good you know your timings. I’m similar in that I need to see where my cycles are at too! xx

Thanks @Twochews78 it is a bit rubbish as I very stupidly wasted many tests I didn’t need to take, no matter how much you tell yourself not to test it never works!!
Hopefully you will get a clearer outlook on your cycles, where are you at the mo?xx

5 dpo today...
whos with me??
Trying my hardest to not test early this month
