The May Bus

I'm feeling positive about this next cycle. Due rtd tomorrow.

If it's as long as the one I'm just finishing I'll be due sometime in early May so thought I'd do the honours and polish down the bus, stack it full of champagne and nibbles and start the engine!

Who's with me?

Hi cherry, welcome aboard. Lots of sympathy here, hope that specialist appt becomes unecessary.

You should be fine for May, the MN due date calculator gives me May 6th if I get lucky this cycle and I'm only on day 7. We'll have plenty more on this bus yet...

cherrytomatobomb · 05/08/2010 11:17

Hi everyone,

Can I rejoin??? Think I'd still be ok for May?

Morning all.

Just checking in as this is a very boring stage of my cycle.

I just started temping a couple of days ago and its all over the place, will see how it goes for the rest of the cycle.

Hope everyone else is doing ok and good luck

omnomnomtom · 04/08/2010 23:01

at operation up duff!

ravenlocks · 04/08/2010 21:38

Just ordered a basal thermometer on eBay, am going to give temp charting a go this month and see how I get on with that, combined with OPK and no drinking. Full of intentions on CD1 me. Let Operation Up Duff begin!

omnomnomtom · 04/08/2010 21:23

Loopymumsy I'm on day 9 of AF bleurgh so am with you on wanting AF to GO NOW!
Wondering if this will mean I ovulate later?

Oooo NoMoreChocBiscuits - fingers crossed for you

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 04/08/2010 21:09

Hmm, begining to think my prediction of not catching first try and so missing the April bus may have been a bit wrong. My 2WW is now in it's 3rd week with no sign of a BFP or AF. So will therefore jump off this bus until I know for sure.

NoMoreChocBiscuits presses the bell to stop the bus and gives up her seat for someone else.

Good luck to all.

hi everyone! i am so seriously dippy this month that i had forgotten what day i was. doh. had to look at this post to work it out. its my new tactic. last month 4 thermometers and a charting fiend. this month nothing. see if that works. pretend i dont want to get pregnant and then wham. kinda reverse psychology.

kiwidreamer i am up for jaffas!
fhg a competition... like with money and everything?! hmmm wont mention that to mine... he would want to steal that idea!

oh and OPK? blah hate them. used them this time last year. no smiley face but ended up pregnant anyway.. not sure how that worked. need something simple me..

zinnia · 04/08/2010 20:49

Welcome ravenlocks, nice to see you too (usual caveats apply).

Thanks for the tips Wombat, the expense is the main thing putting me off the OPKs, that and the poas obsession, which has not served me well in recent months.

Might try the temping (assuming I remember in the morning) and see how I go. After all, the chemist is always there if necessary...

ravenlocks · 04/08/2010 18:30

Hi girls, can I join?

Been booted off the April bus with the very unwelcome arrival of AF this morning. Nice to see some familar faces here from the April bus (iykwim).

Wombat33 · 04/08/2010 17:01

Hi all! Welcome to the new joiners. Wow, this bus is filling up!

Zinnia I'm trying to use temping (Boots chart too) and OPKs but my temps are all over the place this month. That said, even though I've taken it as different times as and when I've woken up (and sometimes when I've only been aslleep for 2 hrs after getting up to go to the loo) it seems to have given my a pretty good idea of when I ov and I've only been temping for two and a half months. I'm using OPKs as well this month and they are making me totally paranoid. Am using the digital ones and when the stick malfunctionned on hols over the weekend I made DH find a chemist to buy a new one, and while I was there bought some back-up non-digital ones. The upshot being that I've now spent about £60 this month on OPKs !!! And when I didn't get the smiley face I expected this morning on the digital one (because by my temps I should be oving soon) I did another one early afternoon and got a smiley face then - so they don't seem very reliable unless your testing a couple of times a day and that's seriously expensive! If I don't fall this month, I think I might just try to go au naturel next month, no charting or OPKs and see what happens.

.... who am I fooling ... I'm such a control freak I need to know what's going on!

zinnia · 04/08/2010 09:37

Have fun delilah, we'll all still be here when you get back!

Thanks for the info about OPKs/charting too, by the way, think I might have to go for the former as I keep forgetting to take my temp before I get out of bed in the mornings.

Lib76 · 04/08/2010 09:27

enjoy your week of nice things delilah it's our 5th Anniversary next week so hoping AF will hurry up and we can start swi again!!

delilahbelle · 04/08/2010 08:24

Wednesday's Stats done

Well, after AF being so slow to start, she's buggered off after only 4 days. So SFF cant start early - DH to be kept sweet.

It's our wedding anniversary coming up, so I won't be around much. Lots of nice things planned for a week or so, starting today.

Hello All! How's everyone doing today?
Got bloods back from GP and all fine... Hi Ho, Hi Ho! It's off to MC clinic I go. Meh!

Also, have been challenged by DP's friends in race to conceive! Is their anything boys won't treat as competition
