The October bus is here!!!

Ovulated late, but 12 DPO and still testing BFN, so think it's probably all over for this month... :(

Sorry to hear that starlight.

Just wanted to let you know af has arrived! Am wierdly pleased because this is day 33 and my cycle was 33 days last month so hopefully I'm back to normal after the pill! Also my fertile period was over a whole week when my DH was away so if I did get pregnant it would have been immaculate conception!

Just popped in to say hi, sorry AF got you queenrollo xx

Had a great night last night, got drunk, came 2nd at musical chairs and first at musical statues! Competitive? Moi?!

CD 29 for me, fully expecting AF in a few days time, nothing symptom like to report.

Congratulations on your BFP gimmie

happy valentines day to everyone for tomorrow! Just baked some browines as a present for my DH, he hates valentines day and made me promise not to get anything but I thought making something would not count! I think they are a bit undercooked, but they taste alright, hope they don't poison him!

Yay, Gimme - congratulations!! Fabulous news - hope all goes well for you!

morning everyone. I am on month two.. DPO7

been doing the bbt thermometer and my temp only seemed to spike a bit, and then went down, but is still a little higher than it was pre-ovulation. and has stayed higher now for 6 days.. so am still hopeful at the moment..

got nipples that feel like bullets and really sensitive, and have had cramping pains for the last couple of days..

finally gave in and did a test yesterday, (cheapo poundshop ones... lol).. BFN so far but I know its too soon really (isnt it??)..

weird thing yesterday was everything I ate tasted really really sweet, and a chunk of pineapple, which I normally love but had to spit out as it was so sweet and sharp it hurt my mouth... lol...

still fully expect to get my period in 6 days though.. (eternal pessimist)

I'm using OV sticks, last month was the first time I got a proper reading from them. Likewise the Ov microscope. It took me ages to get used to the microscope but I think I've got the hang of it now. Didn't seem to pick up ovulation as well as the sticks though.

cake I have a BBT thermometer and soem OV sticks but have used neither yet. Think I will have to start though.

AF got me this morning so I'm off the bus. Not going to hop straight on the Nov bus. Need to have a think about this TTC stuff

Hiya, I feel the need to join a ttc board, will you have me?

I've been ttc number 2 for 2yrs, one MC last January. Gawd knows my statistics, someone will have to explain them to me.

Currently awaiting AF tommorrow. Feeling lots of cramps so not hopeful for this month.

Good luck pixie

I just did a test and BFN, this would be cd 28 for me. My last cycle was 33 days though and the one before that was 45! I am thinking that the little bit of spotting may have been ovulation and not implantation? We had sex the following day, but had no SWI for a week before that as DH was away so still not holding out for anything. Means I will have a gulit free night tonight!

queenrollo I am still hopeful for you, especially if your AF is late. Do you chart or use ov sticks? I'm in a bit of a dilemma as to what to do next month as it is all well and good people saying have lots and lots of sex across the month but it exhausting especially since we both have stressful jobs. I can't even time it too well as don't know my cycle...

sorry to hear AF got you pixie good luck on the next bus.

cake go ahead and have a good weekend. I got aboslutely plastered on gin 5 days before i got my BFP with DS and he's turned out fine.

AF still not put in an appearance. have been out this morning and had cramps while driving. Fully expected when i went to the loo at mums to see AF had arrived. Cramps have stopped now and still no sign of AF. It usually starts first thing in the morning - I have no idea what's going on this month.
We're away tomorrow and Sunday with friends, so that'll make me relax a bit thankfully.

Fingers crossed for you cake

I really hope that this month works out for you queenrollo.
I've been getting carried away today, almost convinced myself that we were all systems go, but then AF appeared this evening.
It's only early days for me, though I don't think I realised just how much obsessing there'd be with ttc. Think I'll head onto the next bus, but will really try not to focus on it all too much.
Good luck ladies fx

Ah queenrollo you will set me off too x it's crap all this ttc business. Your DH sounds lovely. I've been thinking about giving the next bus a miss too. Thought I was ok and enjoying the buses but it is making me obsess when there is really no need as I have not even been trying for long! I POAS today too and it was also BFN, got no symptoms of anything either! Due sometime after sat so there is still time, but have decided that I will test on sat and if it's negative I'm going to have a good few drinks on sat and have some fun- I'm going to a west country themed party!

oh dear. having a cry. Just had a text conversation with DP and told him I am trying not to get my hopes up this month, and he said he had a cry earlier too

If we haven't done it this month I don't know whether I'm going to hop on the November bus. I'm fine for the whole cycle except these last few days when I find the emotion of it all is getting too much.

well i just caved in and POAS again but BFN. Couldn't help it

Still not feeling like AF is imminent though....

Any news Cake or queenrollo or anyone else?!

Still all quiet here (eek!), will probably poas tomorrow morning if AF doesn't appear in the mean time. FX :)

Ok, so I gave in this morning and POAS. I did it sneakily so DH didn't notice and tut at me like he usually does but BFN :( . Had terrible PMT last weekend, really thought AF was going to rear her ugly face but not due on until this Fri/Sat so we'll see. No symptoms whatsoever and very little optimism.

Congratulations to the BFP and good luck at those still waiting.

In other good news I did not POAS today and will not until Friday - would wait til the 14th as DH is away until then anyway but going out at the weekend so would like to get drunk guilt free

No sign of AF for me either! Just need to update situation re: my work colleague, she said today 'that's a nice dress, you could still wear that when pregnant' and proceeded to tell me she is psychic! FFS- I never believe in anything like that but it is starting to freak me out- probably just winding me up- and it works

No sign of AF here either, I'm due today & am hardly ever late so I'll wait & see what this afternoon brings . DP's away with work at the moment, but is due back tomorrow evening. Might see if I can wait to poas until Saturday morning if no sign of AF before then.

Vegas I like stories like yours! I know that even if I keep getting bfns, I'll convince myself that it's only a matter of time before another line pops up!

Cake he he, you can't beat random testing, I poas when I got in from work the other evening (why?!), bfn in case you were wondering...

A Valentines day bfp would be fab queenrollo, here's hoping!

well, no sign of AF today. could be tomorrow or Friday. Don't feel like she's on her way though. Away this weekend so probably won't test until monday. Valentines Day

Don't know what the wierd numbers are in my post! Also everyone expects I'm TTC as I got married in the summer

It's so brilliant that there have been two BPFs today, lovely news. karbea I hope the next bus is yours x

queenrollo and pixiepops I'm also symptomless, although a work colleague did notice I was rubbing my stomach today- I usually do this to see how much it is sticking out! I told her it was because I'm hungry- not a pregnant sign and she said 'there you go- that's another sign'... I have not told anyone I'm TTC but I suppose everyone expects that I am.

Please someone slap me though- i POAS again this morning!!!! Obviously BFN- still too early anyway, I think I like doing it- it's like a science experiment from school - think it was the litmus test to see if something was acid or alkaline!
