Hoping for a BFP in July

So thought I'd start a new thread for anyone who's hoping for a July BFP. My AF showed up today a week early after getting loads of pregnancy symptoms 🥲 think my body is still out of sync after my miscarriage in April.

So let's stay positive for a July BFP 🥰

@My2boysaremyworld I'm the same. I do find it hard to hold out though. Xx

Angie2018 · 24/06/2022 08:20

@My2boysaremyworld ah thank you! Yeah she is my world and I miss her so much. Seeing her hurting is just awful. Dogs are our family aren't they!! How you feeling today? My temp is rising nicely.... seriously hoping for a dip in 3-5 days to signal implantation 🙈 xx

My2boysaremyworld · 23/06/2022 22:35

@Shiny88 been getting some strange pulling pains today and had a weird electric shock kind of pain across my tummy earlier xx

I hope this is the start of something for you!! Xx

Angie2018 · 24/06/2022 08:23

@Shiny88 hey how are you today?

I track BBT (first month of doing so) and I use OPKs. All have been great so far, currently 3dpo woooo! The digital ones are the best they are just so easy.

No symptoms yet 🤣 no sore boobs though! The lack of sore boobs last time after ovulation was a sign for me... so hopefully they don't start to hurt.

Xx

My2boysaremyworld · 24/06/2022 08:41

@Shiny88 hopefully we can both hang on as long as possible xx

Got my first positive ovulation test with FMU yesterday morning and it still showed positive when I tested at 5pm

As a point of learning I tested today with FMU and its still positive. I didn't think it would be

My2boysaremyworld · 24/06/2022 08:43

@Angie2018 yes they are our fur babies. I'm ok just very tired today. Got a call from the ex's mom to say my youngest DS isn't very well being sick so there dropping him to me today. Is your temp doing the right things it should be? Xx

What does sore boobs after ovulation mean then? If you get them does that mean it's not going well or it's going well? Xx

It's likely to remain for 48 hours. That's your most fertile time! Get baby dancing 💃

@Angie2018 thank you hoping it's implantation starting? Xx

Oh I hope so.... I think the earliest implantation starting is 5dpo but I suppose anything can happen? I would say if it's a change for you then that's a good sign. Everyone's different so I think if it's a change to my body il assume it's a good sign xx

Angie2018 · 24/06/2022 09:00

@My2boysaremyworld yes my temps are looking perfect currently! Everything's gone well this month so I really hope the SMEP plan worked. Ah that's not good about your DS, hope he's ok! I know they are our first babies and I couldn't be without her tbh, she's like my little best friend I adore her so I am struggling without her. Xx

My2boysaremyworld · 24/06/2022 09:01

@Angie2018 god knows maybe just pulled it at work lol. My back is aching this morning xx

@My2boysaremyworld well after ovulation, progesterone starts to rise and peaks between day 5-8dpo, it's the same hormone that causes sore boobs if you are pregnant. So having sore boobs after ovulation is a good sign as it's a sign ovulation took place, but it's not related to pregnancy that early until implantation takes place then the sore boobs get worse and that's down to pregnancy hormone and more progesterone. When we get AF estrogen joins and progesterone drops which is why our temperature goes down near AF and why sore boobs tender to clear up as estrogen balances out progesterone. But if pregnant progesterone is rising so temps don't go down.

The only reason I don't want sore boobs is because I get them every single month about a few days to a week after ovulation until AF arrives and the only month my boobs didn't hurt at all was when I was pregnant last month but had a chemical. So to me that was a change from my normal cycle and gave it away so I hope it happens this month. I've read a lot of ladies found the same, it's the lack of symptoms that was a sign for them. But others it's the opposite so you have to kinda go with what is abnormal for you. Xx

My2boysaremyworld · 24/06/2022 09:01

@Angie2018 god knows maybe just pulled it at work lol. My back is aching this morning xx

Hopefully a good sign. Sore lower back is a sign! I have a sore lower back most of the time so I wouldn't be able to tell the difference 🤣🤣 I did have back twinges last cycle but as my back is so bad normally I wasn't sure if it was that or pregnancy 🤣 xx

My2boysaremyworld · 24/06/2022 09:17

@Angie2018 for a week or so before and during ovulation my boobs were killing me!! Not sure if it's a great sign my body is working.
One of the symptoms I got with my last pregnancy in March was lower back pain. I remember saying to my OH god my back hurts imagine if I'm pregnant. Still can't believe we lost our baby 😢

Boobs are still tender now too??

Oh and Iv got both my DS's at home today now. My eldest is saying he doesn't feel well either. Not sure whether to believe him cuz he's been trying to get out of school lately 😔😩 feel like he's seen a get out card and used it. It so hard as they got older 😔xx

@Angie2018 thank you. Still new to all this! We DTD last night and plan is today, tomorrow and Monday. We wondered about Sunday too if we have enough energy! Unless that might be too much!

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 24/06/2022 09:47

My back hurt quite a bit last month but AF came. Think it was my work uniform which is heavy and probably hurt my back. I never get sore boobs even with my last pregnancy. My only symptom last pregnancy was that I didn't spot before AF which I saw as a change to my norm.

kizzy97 · 24/06/2022 09:50

Hi, jumping over from June thread, af due today but BFN 😭

Does anyone have expericne ttc after having implant removed? Had it out July last year and I'm sure I remember them saying it's more likely to take a year after removal? I've been trying for #2 since October

My2boysaremyworld · 24/06/2022 10:32

Hi @kizzy97 yes I had the implant removed in September 2020 and we finally caught in February this year but unfortunately lost our baby in April. So it took us about 18 months to catch xx

Angie2018 · 24/06/2022 13:05

@My2boysaremyworld I literally am so sorry you lost your baby too it's heartbreaking. Such a cruel world 😢

Hopefully you fall quickly again!

I think it's very normal to get sore boobs during your cycle, I think sore boobs after ovulation is a sign you ovulated so a good sign. Lower back pain is defo a thing though!!

Ah how old are they both? I have two teenage step kids so I totally get it!! Hope your boys are feeling ok though xx

Angie2018 · 24/06/2022 13:06

@JB2021 sounds like you are doing all the right things! I can't deal with this waiting around though, it's painful. I have already convinced myself I can't be pregnant this month... everything went to plan as well this cycle, and I'm still torturing myself 😞

Angie2018 · 24/06/2022 13:08

@BellaTheDarkOverlord yeah I think it's really if somethings a change to your body as we are all different! I haven't got sore boobs yet... hoping they don't come. That was a big change for me. I am frantically grabbing my boobs every 5 minutes checking they don't hurt 🙄 tbh if they did start to hurt, it would be the progesterone regardless of pregnancy or anyway but I like to turn myself mad 🙈

Angie2018 · 24/06/2022 13:08

@kizzy97 hey! Welcome to the thread! Sorry you had a BFN for June... hopefully you get your BFP in July 💜
