Grab your seats on the September bus (though I know there are a few of us still testing in August).

Absolutely everyone welcome - I'll attempt a list of tags for "reserved seats" but am guaranteed to have missed quite a few:

Thank you @purpleskyssssss 🥺

Amazing BFPs!!

I'm 6 dpo, I think. Another 7 days until my period is due so will be lurking in the wings!! Last time I was pregnant (2018) I had sore boobs right from implantation. Had them long before I missed my period. I felt really strongly I was pregnant. So of course I'm obsessed with any boob tingling! Absolutely ridiculous all this symptom spotting, but can't be helped.

Good luck to all

Hi ladies, I’d like to hop on the bus! Apologies if I use any terms/abbreviations wrong!
Currently TTC baby #1, cycle 1. App suggested I would ovulate on the 4th but I had cramping on one side on the 3rd so I’m going with that. I’m only tracking with apps currently. So thinking I’m currently 3 DPO and the wait is killing me. I’m pretty regular each month so AF would be due around the 19th. I’ve learnt so much already from these threads.
Amazing on all the BFPs!!! Hoping for baby dust for all!

MissM94 · 07/09/2021 05:12

I've had not a lot of sleep as my ridiculous brain is getting over excited 😂 so I've done my clear blues with FMU.. has anyone ever had a digital that hasn't given you a weeks indicator? It did say to dip it for 20 seconds but I'm sure I only did it for 10, maybe it's that haha

Aww congrats @MissM94!
I might be wrong, but I think there are two different digital Clearblue tests. One with the weeks indicator and one like yours that just says pregnant or not pregnant xxx

MissM94 · 07/09/2021 08:18

@MrsF13 oh of course there is! Thank you 😁 panic over hahaha ♥️

EmeraldSpo · 07/09/2021 08:36

@Smushied ah nice we're cycle buddies!

ViL89 · 07/09/2021 10:26

Ladies Im so confused I got progressively darker lines on LH tests from CD10ish, I then started bleeding on CD14 when I think I had my peak :( I couldn't BD for a few days as last time it gave me a UTI (been bleeding mid cycle due to covid)

I'm now on CD20 and started to get darker lines again. I thought I ovulated on CD15 but maybe I'm getting a second surge.

Has anyone else had experience of still getting strong lines on LH 5/6 days after ovulation?

Not sure what to make of it - I only had 4 days when we couldn't BD but it was cd14-17 so I think was the most important time.

feeling so confused and stressed!!!

So pleased for everyone getting their BFP but feel like this wont happen for me :(

purpleskyssssss · 07/09/2021 13:06

@ViL89 I did have this a few months back which was my longest cycle, I remember having a dark line on my easy at home test but was not as dark as it usually is - normally I stop testing but carried on and about 6 days later I got my true ovulation, I think if it is still dark, keep testing so you can make sure you don't miss it if it is this time!

ViL89 · 07/09/2021 14:17

Thanks @purpleskyssssss

I think I missed it as didn't dtd CD 14 to 17 as was bleeding kind of regretting that now though but the UTI I caught was so bad I couldn't face it.

Hopefully I haven't ovulated yet will defo keep testing.

Are you lines always clearly darker? I've had some close to the same colour bit never quite there

YummyMummyXoX · 07/09/2021 14:43

Hi guys I've taken some time out hope everyone is doing ok!
Cd30 not expecting a period until next week sometime but today and had a hunch to test!
Does this look like a positive?

@YummyMummyXoX yes it does!!

Lucylulu1 · 07/09/2021 15:02

@YummyMummyXoX absolutely looks like one! Congratulations! And to all the other ladies who have their bfp (I'm slow catching up)

Bundaberg84 · 07/09/2021 16:13

abolutely @YummyMummyXoX!!!

purpleskyssssss · 07/09/2021 16:40

@ViL89 fingers crossed you haven't!

They normally are darker then the control line, but each month it's very different and changes how long it stays for

Yes @YummyMummyXoX that looks like a positive to me! 😃

YummyMummyXoX · 07/09/2021 19:18

Hmm done 3 today and all look like that going to do a digital in the morning cos I'm in disbelief although I have a few symptoms x

YummyMummyXoX · 07/09/2021 19:45

Ha well I couldn't wait could I lol

Omg I'm actually in disbelief!!!!!

@YummyMummyXoX amazing, congratulations! So good to see it written in black and white isn’t it.

YummyMummyXoX · 07/09/2021 20:49

@Charl881
Thank you so much, it is I really didn't believe and still in shock x

hoola23 · 07/09/2021 21:35

Yay@YummyMummyXoX congrats!!! ❤️

Chocco94 · 07/09/2021 22:18

Hi all. Been reading through all the BFPs and think I'll jump on this lucky bus!! Grin
Currently CD16 and feeling ovulation cramps so will be in the TWW soon enough. Haven't tracked anything this month, as was all getting a bit too much.
Congratulations to all the BFPs and baby dust to the rest of us still waiting to test Flowers

MrsBiddy · 08/09/2021 07:15

Congrats to all the BFPs!

CD 20 for me and OvuSense hasn’t confirmed ovulation yet 😞 maybe this month isn’t our month,
Hopefully AF will come on time this month 🙄 but who knows

Amazingapples · 08/09/2021 07:22

Hi girls,

Still here, not posting much but I am reading all the posts 😊

Congrats on all the BFPs so far.

I'm currently 7DPO. No symptoms yet - no idea whether this will be our month. It's cycle 6 for us.

Sending baby dust 💖

Charl881 · 08/09/2021 07:47

@Amazingapples also 7dpo and no real symptoms! I think I felt sick this morning after having a glass of wine last night but pretty sure it was just the combo of wine and heat. When do you think you’ll test?

All these BFPs are giving me hope! I love seeing other people getting them even if it’s not my month.

Bundaberg84 · 08/09/2021 08:43

9dpo, and so proud of myself that I haven't had the urge to test yet! Having cramps since three days, mostly in the evening, but today I even woke up with cramps. Probably just because I'm nervous? I don't know.
