Well I fell off another bus and rather than wait around for the next one I thought I would get another going myself. So have stocked it up with cake, Wine - for the first 2 weeks and Brew - for the 2ww'ers :)

Hoping it will be a lucky bus for lots of us - and I might have a birthday baby :)

(I have left out the CD as it is never up to date and all we really want to know is when are people testing!)

Morning all

ThisCharming and Imustbecrazy I think I am going to join you with the not obsessing pact. My cycle is a mystery at the moment anyway so there's no real point trying to pinpoint OV days - might as well go for the "as much SWI as possible" approach instead. let's just hope DH agrees (he's got to work late a lot this week so could be tricky Sad).

ThisCharmingMum · 20/06/2011 10:28

Morning ladies,

Just changing my AF date to account for the fact that AF came 2 days early on CD26 instead of CD28. Am going to assume that cycle is still 28 days as I think the 26 day thing was a blip.

AF ended yesterday so will get on to some SWI from tonight. Like Imustbecrazy26, I have decided to not bother with ov stick this month. Just going to do my best to swi every other day. With our house move, i may not be able to stick to this but if it doesn't happen this month, there is always next month. I am determined not to obsess as much this month because i had every symptom under the sun last month and no BFP.

I should know better because I didn't really have any symptoms with DC1 and 2 except for cramps very close to AF due date. Nausea appeared at about 6 weeks with both as did extreme tiredness. Didn't use OV sticks with either DC1 or 2 - was a lot more chilled out about it. Think I am more stressy this time because it has taken me so long to get DH to agree to having another.

Am going to try my best to remain in the land of the sane people this month.

(Famous last words methinks)

Readynow · 20/06/2011 09:54

Morning. 11 dpo here & not really having any symptoms so I'm most probably out for this month :( Only a few more days to wait to find out for definite though. Why does the 2ww seem to last forever?!

Pixiepops · 20/06/2011 09:29

8 days into the 2ww over here, no symptoms, though gradually convincing myself that no symptoms can in itself be a symptom for some people... oh dear! Confused

Hoping that by this time next week I might know one way or another. Good luck to everyone else who's still in the dark!

pommedechocolat · 20/06/2011 07:37

I am 4 days into dreaded 2ww now and have had vivid dreams and some post ov pain. Hate the 2 ww!!

Liliana1 · 19/06/2011 23:05

OK 5 days in to 2ww and not going so well at not symptom spotting.

Honestly even exaggerating every symptom I haven't much to say except I'm REALLY tired. TBH that could be work - end of term reports, test marking, shows, moving classrooms, getting head round new class all happen at once!

Mrs Cog, not sure I can help as I feel like that all the time! (I cried at the fairyjobmother the other day, no idea why!!!) but a but of SWI can't hurt Wink Hope you feel better soon.

Byrnsie30 · 19/06/2011 19:25

Heya Mrscog - preseed sounds like good stuff, I might have to try it if no luck this month.
stuffthenonsense I'm OV at moment so have dtd thurs, sat and today. Planning on 2 more swi sessions tomorrow and tues. Give it our best shot!
I'll be 2ww hell soon. Good luck to all!

pommedechocolat · 19/06/2011 17:20

Bit of swi might also put you in abetter mood too - tends to have that effect with me anyway!

MrsCog · 19/06/2011 17:08

Hmm well based ov on Thursday on the 5 days of EWCM I'd had, culmulating in being really really horny Thurs and had lower abdo pain (ov pain?), EWCM has since stopped. If I can stop crying maybe it would be worth a SWI just to be on the safe side :)

Levana · 19/06/2011 16:21

I was going to agree with pomme , are your timings definitly right. I feel very PMT'ish at the moment, ie want chocolate and feel v. annoyed with everyone and everything. Although I am supposedly 5dpo I think I could be more as it doesn't fit with how I feel.

pommedechocolat · 19/06/2011 16:17

Are you sure you've ov-d? I get pms symptoms the day before or day of ov. I get really moody, crave sugary stuff and am quite frankly a bitch to everyone.

MrsCog · 19/06/2011 16:10

Help! In need of a hormone expert - think I'm 2/3 dpo and I've got the worst pmt mood swings I've ever had - furious one minute, in tears the next.... I'm at my Mum and Dad's for fathers day and am sitting inside alone as can't bear to be around other people! What hormone change is this? And could it prevent Ttc?

Minipie- looks like you just going to have to jump on your dh at every oppertunity untill your cycle settles down!!!! Grin Think that why im not going crazy about opks at the min give my body chance to sort it self out and fingers crossed might get lucky and get a bfp one month. Hummm i wonder if ill be saying that when im waiting for af to arrive in few weeks!!!! Probably not!!!

Cycle day 4, looking forward to getting my teeth (well not anatomically correct there) into ttc. This will be our second month of ttc no 1.

MrsCog · 18/06/2011 18:52

Thannks minipie

Preseed is a sperm friendly lube - lots of them aren't so great for the little guys (and I'm quite lube reliant), so am using this now - it also replicates EWCM apparently. Had terrible mood swing this afternoon - could it be post ov hormone changes...? I think it's safe to say my 2ww has begun. Oh yey :)

Jebel · 18/06/2011 17:37

Not my month this month but as my cycle is pretty short there is a chance I might still be on the March bus so will stick around.

pommedechocolat · 18/06/2011 17:28

minipie - that's why the cb digi ones are good (though dear!) - a big smiley face appears!!
stuff - according to ff the day before the +, the day of the + and the day after give you a 'high' chance. 3 days in a row quite hardcore though imho! the night before already gets a 'good' on it's own though!

stuffthenonsense · 18/06/2011 17:05

Oh wow oh wow! My OPK today (cd12) is positive. Woohoo!
DTD last night, when is next best? Today, tomorrow, both??????
Is OV on CD12 good for a 29 day cycle? Have no idea.

Imustbecrazy26, I conceived DD4 on strong antibiotics, no affect on baby at all so don't give up hope.

minipie · 18/06/2011 16:42

hey mrsCog sounds like you're doing well - fingers crossed! What's pre-seed by the way?

My OPKs are confusing - I have been testing since CD9 and now CD 14 and every day I get the same very very faint line... My last cycle was 40 days though so I guess I shouldn't be expecting OV for another week or so. But then I worry that the OPKs are wrong and if we don't SWI now we'll miss it!

Why can't there just be a big flashing light or something which appears when we're ovulating...

pommedechocolat · 18/06/2011 15:01

Hate hate the 2ww! Sure it hasn't happened this month so one of those 2ww when you're just gagging to get going on the swi again. Annoying!

Liliana1 · 18/06/2011 14:23

Wish I had used okp's this month as still completely confused when or even if I have ovulated - so much for my regular cycle and ovulation :( it would pack up and leave just when I need it!!

Sorry to hear af has caught up with a few but hope that we will have some more BFP's after our good start.

Being quite chilled this month with the symptom spotting as don't think there is much chance so just having fun with DH instead - a nice change for both of us :)

Good luck for those swi atm Wink

Right, I think I oved Thursday - EWCM+++ and I got a pain in lower r abdomen (only noticed coz I'm on hyper sensitive alert to every slight twinge). SWI Weds, and Thurs night - with preseed, prob tonight as well for luck. Can it be enough this time....

Good luck everyone, Imustbecrazy I think 1 other bus member got a BFP but I can't remember who - I'll look for the list and repost :)
