There's a couple of people on the stats who I need to move to a 'departed for a January bus list' but I can't work out who! If you are still lurking on there but AF has been an absolute witch and got you, sorry! Please shout so the stats can be updated.

Afternoon ladies- loving the new thread! I've spent the day christmas cake decorating. Feeling festive! 4 dpo here, just twiddling my thumbs for the next week!
Who's going to be our first BFP on here?

lucyfluff We are moving to the South East - currently in N.E. Scotland. Sorry, I don't want to say any closer than that as it's an alarmingly small world with military moves where we are currently based.

I really hope ofsted are ok, rant away on here! I can't believe the time of year to have them. It's madness at school already without that on your plate! (Final concert rehearsal for our Christmas play today, I was glad to be off!) Good luck!

Did someone just mention milk and brazil nuts?? I was already thinking about eating pineapple core this month!! Milk I can do but am allergic to brazil nuts!! Am on cycle 4 and starting to get fed up so decided to take a break until after Christmas but now that is totally out of the window and I am going for a big effort in search of that Christmas BFP!! Have informed DP it is 'sex week' he grumbled a bit so I snapped 'you are supposed to enjoy this part' hope I haven't put him off!!

Clink, clink..... I'm back with bags of booze for the back seat grumps. Nipped to shoos for some mince pies and selection boxes then got confused and couldn't find the bus - all that without opening a bottle. Slinking up the back to pour bexboo a Disaronno and a little dram hie (who knew there was a bottle in my cupboard. No idea why as no one I knows drinks it).

Ooh Xmas day BFP amy that would make the best pressie - Good Luck (and to everyone else as well)! Congrats to the BFP's so far Grin

I've been around but mostly lurking lately, trying to chill out a bit. We took a break last month, and back trying but taking a more relaxed approach.
I've had blood tests to see if I have PCOS Sad (3 periods in 12 months). I'm going to call the docs tomorrow for results. I'm worried but at least they can prescribe fertility drugs if it is PCOS.

I hope everyone is having a good month and looking forward to seeing lots of festive BFP's

Well ladies, after a brief bit of excitement on Sunday I think I'm pretty much back to 'normal' now - definitely less crampy anyway. Had a chat with DH along the lines of "What are you doing on Friday morning, cos I might have to do something ", and he went "Why can't you just stay in suspense and wait until you're a week late?"

I mean, really!!!

Thank you HollyBen!! (Gratefully sips on my disaronno) x

Hmm mammabear I didn't think it was right!! It's still showing up as my bfp/AF due 27, and there's 5 days in between now and then that is showing up as my fertile window...so confused. Maybe it'll straighten out as I get used to it, and I input more info about my cycles daily :-)

It looks like AF may have buggered off already - after only 3 days...is this normal?!!

Hi ladies, I'm ttc with no 3 and having a tough time. Long story short - I'm a PCOS sufferer with anovulation since last pregnancy. Went on Clomid after a year of trying and bang, pregnant on second cycle, followed by a miscarriage at 7 weeks in Oct Hmm Came off Clomid a while and thought we'd try naturally for the first few months after the mc. Clomid makes me a crazy lady! Anyway, hoping for a bfp around 15/12/2014. What an Xmas pressie that would be. I'd be grateful if anyone could tell me how to jump on the thread pls. Baby dust to all x

Hoorah! I have decided the pains I'm feeling today mean I have finally ovulated. Day 17 of my 26-28 day cycle... At least it gives me a slightly less than 2 week wait, but I'm worried 10 days won't be a long enough LP... Still. Everything's crossed : ) I do like the sound of a Christmas BP...

Also m33r you still around my fellow 13th cycler? Hope you are ok if you are popping in to glance at things. And also mama and choccy. Mama I know you were having a quiet month away from mn, so hope you are enjoying being festive in RL, also I miss your cheeriness on here.
