Toot toot! The September bus is early...

[WantStickyBean]

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:

Hoping it's a month with lots of baby dust for us all.

@hoola23 ohh that's interesting to know! Thank you xx

I just took a FRER and it's negative. I am 2 days late and it's clearly stress of this month. I'm fed up of my body. Fed up of trying and staying positive. This year has caused me such stress. I'm feeling sorry for myself and want a break. I feel like pregnancy is so far out of reach for me at the moment 😞 so deflated. I know I have a great life but cannot help but feel this way.

Due to start my new job Thursday and really don't want to be at the start of my period because of the pain caused by endometriosis xx

@Capricorn8990 I’m so sorry you feel like this! It’s so frustrating to want something so much and there’s nothing more you can do to achieve it. Sending you lots of love and baby dust 💕

Anyone else 7dpo and had any symptoms? Last cycle I felt like I had loads of symptoms but this cycle I don’t feel anything. I’m only cycle 2 so don’t have much to compare it to. I’ve felt a couple or twinges and pulls over the last couple of days but nothing else x

Hey everyone, I'm just checking in and catching up after 10 days away without any POAS or checking Mumsnet or my apps. I feel much more relaxed as before I went away my clear blue digital was showing high fertility with no peak for days on end and I got fed up of testing.
I had some strip ovulation tests delivered while I was away and did one just to see and this was the result. I'm CD 31 today so seems a little dark to me but I've never used them before, what do you all think? The app says it's high.

I'm 7 dpo. I'm quite nauseous and have excess saliva/weird taste in my mouth. I had this when I was pg last but that ended in miscarriage.

Here's hoping!!

Congratulations @WantStickyBean, so nice to see a BFP! Wishing you a happy, healthy pregnancy 💕

@WantStickyBean

Ok, so now I feel like a fraud on the September bus, looks like I probably won't be testing in September.

Only thing we did differently this month was to use pre-seed in the applicator each time we DTD in my fertile week, and the fertilily.

Cycle 5 of charting/tracking everything, cycle 8 of "not preventing".

Congratulations 🎉

@Conundrum12345 ahh they sound like positive signs! Fingers crossed for you! When are you planning to test or are you going to wait for AF to (hopefully not) arrive? x

Gonna test on Thursday! And then Saturday. Fingers crossed!!!

@Capricorn8990 I'm so sorry hun, it really does take over everything doesn't it. I do feel the same, we have had so much stress basically since we married and actually before. I really didn't think we would still be here nearly a year later still TTC. It is hard to find the strength some time to keep going but I do think it's important to take a break. I did that over March and April and I do think it helped. It's ok to feel sorry for yourself! It's so important to make time for yourself during all of this, it can be so overly emotional and stressful. I hope you have good people around you to turn to. Sending you a massive hug! Xx

@Conundrum12345 good luck! Let me know how you get on! I’m going to test Saturday I think! x

I’ve been spotting on and off (only when I wipe none on pads or in underwear) since Wednesday just gone and AF was due today but no sign of it at all. Tested this morning with a CB early detection and 2 FRER Friday and Saturday and all have been negative. Not sure what’s going on ☹️

@ashlove17 have you had any thing different this month. Both months i had my Covid jab I've had very strange light spotting. One on the lead up to af and the other around a week before ovulation

@Capricorn8990 sending you lots of love and hugs.
I take naproxen for my endometriosis pains have you been prescribed anything tried anything for it?
I'm so sorry you're feeling this way you really have had an awful month it's no wonder you feel how you do. The scan you had was positive regarding your ovaries etc so take that as something positive to go into your next cycle with 😘😘

@WantStickyBean Congratulations! So happy for you and hopefully see more BFPs! I'm going to try hold out until Friday 10DPO.

@Coco9910 thank you for your lovely comment. I just want my period to arrive now so that I can have a fresh cycle. I'm not on cycle day 33 and my longest cycle was 35 days when I came off the pill, otherwise they've been 28-31 😔 lots of love and baby dust to you too ✨ I hope you're well!

@hoola23
It does indeed. I'm sorry you've had such stress too. I really think education in schools needs to be updated as they don't talk enough about the emotional struggles of trying for a baby but teach you that if you have sex without protection you're gonna get pregnant!! I know when you're in your teens you're very fertile but it's really misconstrued. I've been having counselling for OCD so I've discussed this too as I become very obsessed. It's hard not to I guess. Thank you so much 💕 I hope you're doing okay!

@mummytoolive thank you hun. I was but when I was on the phone to her she double backed and said she wasn't sure if it was okay to take when trying to conceive so it put me of a little! I've got an appointment with the specialist endometriosis nurse on 7th September I'm just hoping my trainer will allow me to go. It's early in the morning so I don't see why not. Yep I must be positive with that result. She did say I had a ruptured follicle which is apparently normal when the egg releases, who knew? How're you? 💗

Congrtulations @WantStickyBean that's fantastic news! I have ordered some pre seed this month did you have any different to normal symptoms this month? Ans congratulations @AllyCat31

@Emily199034 did you re test this morning I can defiantly see a line there, fingers crossed for you

Not even September yet and already a lucky thread, let's hope the luck continues for us all 😃

@purpleskyssssss

Yes I did! Still in shock and can't quite believe it yet. Took these yesterday when I was 10dpo. Doesn't seem real yet.

@Emily199034 aww amazing and what wonderful lines for 10DPO!

Congratulations xx

Wow, congratulations @Emily199034!! What a great thread :) So many BFPs already.
I'm 1dpo now. Let the games begin.

@purpleskyssssss @Bundaberg84

Thank you xx

Hello everyone!

Having been lurking around for sometime but not posting I thought I would jump on the September bus if that is okay ha!

Congratulations on all the BFPs, so nice to see.

I am on cycle 3 TTC after MMC in June. But my partner had Covid for one of the cycles so we will call this cycle 2.

I wasn’t actively TTC when I had my MMC but now I want a baby so bad it is crazy. Anyone else find themselves in the same situation? Not preventing but not actively TTC and then wanting it more than anything after MC?

Currently in CD2 so just waiting for AF to leave now.

Good luck to everyone and let’s hope this is our month

@Emily199034 yay! Congrats!! That's amazing!! Hopefully this thread continues to be a lucky one!!

Thanks for all the lovely messages - can wait to see more BFP here. 14DPO and I feel like the line is darker so very relieved this morning.

@Capricorn8990 I know what you mean! Sometimes I wonder how the population keeps going when you read how specific the timing has to be to conceive!!! It really is such a rollercoaster of emotions. I've started acupuncture this month as my last try before we go down fertility tests and probably ivf eventually. It's good that your getting some help with processing your thoughts and working through things, I think it's really helpful to have someone there to support you with this. Sending hugs x
