Toot toot, it's the July 2021 TTC Bus arriving early

[Fiep]

The July 2021 bus has arrived 1 day and 1 night early but you don't need a FRER to detect it! Just hop on.

Let's hope for lots of positive vibes & lines and if the lines stay away, you'll at least find 24/7 shoulders to cry on!

No tickets required, just bring some pee in a cup and you're in!

Hope I've tagged all the passengers but if you're not tagged - hop on anyway!

PS: it was quite nice going back over the thread to copy the usernames and see how many people were on the bus!

@dunkedbiscuit thanks for checking in . I am absolutely exhausted I have been in bed all morning. I think I am going to stop POAS now until AF due which is between Tuesday and Thursday. I can quite work it all out . I never got a smiley face at all this cycle . Genuinely had no idea if I ovulated and only BD twice so maybe that's the trick not being too clinical . I too am invested in you lovely and I was so gutted when you had your chemical . When will you test ? Xx

Thanks @Nai86 xx

It is so lovely to see a few positive tests this week 🥰

I caved again and tested today but not in the morning. I just have mega line eyes. Pretty sure it was definitely negative but I could almost convince myself there was a shadow 🤣 I am now just going to wait and see if AF shows next week 😅 xx

Congratulations @Gummybear17 and @Fiep!

I have been tracking last few cycles but only able to start TTC this week for various reasons. Just about on time to DTD for first time on what seems to have been day of ovulation (a day earlier than in previous cycles and I clearly missed my LH rise!). Fingers crossed but not terribly optimistic.

Looking ahead (I am presuming at this stage!) to previous cycles when I can DTD in days leading up to ovulation too.

Good luck to everyone, lovely following on here and seeing good news!

Fantastic line there @Gummybear17 congratulations 💕

Congratulations to you too @Fiep, that made me laugh, men! Nope, those lines are defo not always there 😂 we stare enough at them each month

@Gummybear17 that's looking amazing!

@Fiep exciting! Is that 2 months in a row that the thread starter has had a BFP? Must be good luck.

@Gummybear17 those are amazing lines!! And you didn’t get a static smiley this cycle? Did you get any flashing smileys? Just curious lol hoping for my sticky bean this cycle I think I’m 3dpo based on clearblue digital OPKs. I had 8 flashing smileys but I did end up getting peak.

Thanks @Twochews78 I’m only taking the seven seas trying for a baby, little purple vitamins, how about you? Would you recommend any? Hope you have a good trip and managed to get the dtd in before you went today, fingers crossed!!xx🍀

@Fiep I see that little line, congratulations, lots of positive thoughts to get it stronger, just like @Gummybear17, your line is looking great!!xx🎉

@Anonymouss864 I had a circle the whole time . Not even a hint of a smile. I was really gutted as we only DTD twice and I thought the second time it was too late but thought what they hell I have nothing to lose right ? And just in case anybody is interested I haven't been using any extra supplements just the purple trying for a baby once my expensive pregnacare max ran out after my MC . This TTC business is tough . I'm 39 in a few months so I think I will worry until the day my little one is in my arms . I am really hoping for my 🌈 this time , so far so good. I feel so blessed to have this bus of wonderful women rooting for me x

Hi, hoping to join if that's ok?

I'm currently on cycle 7 of trying & CD6. Already have 1 son & would love another child. Hopefully this is a lucky thread.

Hello,
thanks so much for the new bus.. I’m new to mumsnet and was so confused that the June thread finished, and I was like ‘why is the thread closed?... until it literally just occurred to me that there must be a new bus because it’s July 🙈🙈. Still have to read the previous pages but just wanted to say hello 👋🏻👋🏻.

I’m the one with the ‘knowing’ I was pregnant for a few days... then that changed about 5 days before af was due, I suddenly no longer ‘knew’.. had this anxious feeling, started symptom spotting/over analysing and af arrived yesterday 😔. Boo 👎🏻👎🏻.

Really glad that there’s a bus to join. Will catch up on what everyone has written. Baby dust to everyone xx

Congrats to @Fiep & @Gummybear17 🥰❤️❤️ sooo pleased for you both xxx

Wow @Gummybear17 that’s interesting! So glad you caught it in time though!! Praying for your bean to stay sticky!!

@Gummybear17 that sounds really difficult, something so so hard and as you said ‘draining’ to handle all by yourself. 😔

@Fiep that makes me feel lots better!! That’s good to know.🤞🏻

@Nai86 Easy@Home are the best strip tests I've found. I tried the One Step tests but they are nowhere near as food. Plus, you upload photos of your Easy@Home tests to the free Premom app and it analyses them for you so you can tell when you have reached 'High' and 'Peak' fertility 👍🏼

Best of luck, hope this is your month 🤞🏼x

Good* lol

I've used the ovaview tests and they're fine. Uploaded them to the Femometer app and it analysed them without an issue - the app analysis is just a ratio of the colour density of the lines so shouldn't be brand-specific.

I definitely agree it's worth continuing to use standard OPKs alongside the CB digitals. I like the reassurance of the flashing smileys but for me I think it shows "peak" a bit early.

@Gummybear17 I’m sending positive thoughts your way!!! I hope your bean sticks. If it does it provides a lot of positivity. I get flashing smileys only but it’s been confirmed that I do ovulate I just have no clue when normally. Makes me feel like it’s really possible. Hope you’re okay❤️

Hello ladies,

I’ve just read through all the pages. So great that there are so many people on this bus and everyone is so lovely 😊. I’m new to mumsnet, and a lot of threads have people making horrible comments (maybe not on TTC threads but other threads - someone asking for advice and people having a massive go at the op 😳 - why oh why?!?). Anyway so glad it’s not like that here!

Anyway, woohoo and congratulations to everyone with a BFP 🎊🥳💐. How exciting!!

So sorry to hear about BFNs and people who feel sad and hopeless.

Since age was mentioned a few times, not to give false hope but I had my DD (my first child; now TTC DC2) when I was 38, and there were A LOT of factors against me, age, autoimmune condition and on tons of meds, overweight (had gained weight from all the meds).. I hope this give people some hope that it can happen 💪🏻💪🏻. We had tried for a few months, then I started acupuncture, fell pregnant straight away which resulted in an early miscarriage, then conceived my daughter. Could have been coincidence but I think it helped me (acupuncture was mentioned a few times here, so I hope it helps those of you who are trying). Xx

Ps @WantStickyBean
Was it you I was talking to on the June bus about acupuncture? Sorry to hear your appointment wasn’t that good. Mine never left the room.. I hope when you get the other person it’s better! Xx

Currently 4dpo and just had a weird feeling cramp in the area of my uterus!! It only lasted a second or 2 🤞🏼 I’m not sure if implantation can happen that soon but now I’m like omg I wanna poas 😂 I know it’s too soon but I’m so ready for a BFP!!

Morning all.

Im really hoping I don't just have line eyes! AF due around Tuesday. I woke up this morning feeling like I should defo POA. This came up really quickly, in real life it has a lot more colour to it but is still quite tricky to see. Is it just me who can see it? 😂

My plan is to wait until AF does or does not arrive and go from there. I have a frer in the cupboard though so who knows if that plan will stick xxx

@JemRose @Willow1982 @YummyMummyXoX @Sweetpeasandpeonies morning cycle buddies! Hope you're all ok. Just wondering where we're all at in our cycles... AF has nearly gone for me! Time to start testing and BD'ing 😂

@Missy95 I can see something! 🤞🏻

I did the same thing. Due AF same time as you but got nothing! Think I have line eyes coz for a second I thought I did :( think that's me out this month x

@mallowmoon93 thank you for replying, I really hope this is our BFP 🥺🥺

Fingers crossed for you, I tested the other day and it was completely white, in your face negative 🤦‍♀️ So many people say they don't get bfp until after missed period, so still plenty of time! Xxx
