Woohoo! Can I get on? Thanks for starting this thread!

A bit new to all these acronyms, so I can tell you I'm TTC #1, currently somewhere in 2ww, but am yet to work out my slightly random cycle. Just cracked and POAS - and got a BFN. Back to the waiting room for me...

Hey Ladies can I hope on

The wait for TTC is finally over and it has started woohoo. Currently on ovulation week (I assume, well that's what my period diary is telling me) so been bding for the last few days Grin just hope we are lucky and find out the week before the royal wedding if we are.

Wondering if there are any tips to aid the conception?!

Hey there! (waves at going). I think there is another Jan bus here: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/1178804-TTC-a-2012-baby-this-is-our-year
... I recognise some ex-December people on it.

tobytoes · 02/04/2011 19:16

Hi can I join??This is my first bus.Been TTC for two months.My baby was stillborn at 39 weeks on 1/1/11 so am pretty desperate for a BFP. So are we up to January already???

DarciesmumandTTC2 · 02/04/2011 20:23

Tobytoes sorry to see about your loss.

If I'm lucky to fall this month - almost the 2ww period then will be a late dec, early jan baby Grin

Yeah, I think I'll throw my hat in the ring with this one and say I'm TTC #3 after losing DC#2 at 24weeks in November last year.

Are we really onto January already???

I need to work out my proper cycle and stop being lazy about it Grin

Welcome aboard browncoats so sorry for your loss last year that must have been so heartbreaking, I'm not really trying properly other than trying to swi at the right time whenever that may be!!!

Happy Mothers Day Ladies :-)

EsmeWeatherwax · 03/04/2011 13:58

Hello there,

Can I get on the bus? Am 39, starting to ttc this month for dc3, so excited! Dh has finally capitulated, lol. So hoping for a January baby, suspect it may take me slightly longer than the last couple of times, what with my advancing years and all!

Happy mothers and mothers to be day!

DarciesmumandTTC2 · 03/04/2011 18:55

Hey Esme - at 39 your still young :)

Hello going and others!

Was kicked off December bus same day as you but only just getting round to buying another ticket. Saving grace was that af only hung around for 3 days so can get down to business again (unlikely to be productive at this point im my cycle but good fun none the less!)

Going on holiday at the end of the week so can enjoy a couple of drinks guilt free and lots of fun, holiday, camper van SWI.

Let's have some stats (I've missed out cd as it's never up to date and all we really want to know is who is testing and when!):

Goingmadtrying - TTC #3 cycle 5 AF due 28th April
Waitingforstork - TTC #1 cycle 3 AF due 28th April

I didn't have enough info to add anyone else but feel free to copy and paste the stats and add yourself in, in AF date order is best then we can see how everyone else is getting on.

DarciesmumandTTC2 · 04/04/2011 18:19

DarciesmumandTTC2 TTC #2 cycle 1 AF due 18th April (28 day cycle)
Goingmadtrying TTC #3 cycle 5 AF due 28th April
Waitingforstork TTC #1 cycle 3 AF due 28th Apeil

Think I'll be on my 2ww in next couple of days, and DP seems to be enjoying TTC too Grin

EsmeWeatherwax · 04/04/2011 20:36

Added myself in, hope thats ok! Still on the SWI phase, although not for long now! Grin

Mumtopiglet · 04/04/2011 20:51

Hi all

I will hop on the bus if that's ok. We have one son who will be five in May and I sadly had a mc on 1st February at about 6 weeks. Got my cycle back early March and now in the crucial waiting phase!

Sorry to hear about sad losses but here's hoping this will be a super lucky month for us (quite like both the names Katherine and William!)

DarciesmumandTTC2 TTC #2 cycle 1 AF due 18th April (28 day cycle)
EsmeWeatherwax TTC #3 cycle 1 AF due 19th April
Goingmadtrying TTC #3 cycle 5 AF due 28th April
Waitingforstork TTC #1 cycle 3 AF due 28th April
mumtopiglet TTC #2 cycle 1 (after mc) AF due April 15th (35 day cycle)

EsmeWeatherwax · 04/04/2011 21:10

Hi Mumtopiglet hope this will be a good month for you! I never thought of the Royal wedding association, and Katherine was the top contender for my girl's name...will need a rethink there!

DarciesmumandTTC2 · 04/04/2011 21:18

I have not a thought about girls names. For a boy I really want Reuben James but DP says no :( I will change his mind Grin

WaitingforStork · 05/04/2011 07:49

Morning everyone!

Not a problem, I like to be organised/nosey and much easier to see what is going on with a list.

I can't wait to go on holiday, we're going to Wales (live in Scotland) and have never been before. Going with two sets of inlaws and their kids, 3 vans, 6 adults and 7 kids in total, so will get some peace and quiet by the time we're tucked up in bed but likely to be a busy week. DH is likely to be much more relaxed though so convincing him to SWI shouldn't be too hard. If he's had a stressful day at the office can be hard to get him in the right frame of mind, relaxed holiday SWI much more fun, and falls around OV time, perfect.

Anyone else got any plans for Easter hols?
