Hop on board the October 2012 BFP bus

Hi Rocks thank you for the cakes!!

Can I join please, I have rock cakes.......!
I am in cycle 3 and BFP due 2nd Oct.

Thank you Waves I will take a cup cake!!

Hope things work out addicted for all other bus passengers I have quite a few cupcakes to pass around. Dd turns 7 tomorrow and I have made rather a bit too much. Sherry trifle minus the sherry is the next thing on my making list! (if you take a cupcake you have to promise to join me in a happy birthday refrain tomorrow!)

there you go ladies, enjoy! I am trying to give all my cakes and pies I am making away so I am not tempted to eat them all, last thing I need on top of everything else is to put on a stone!! Am trying to keep myself occupied so as not to dwell on things or become addicted to poas which I know will happen once I start!

Oh god chookford your making me want want actual cake, since we decided to ttc I've been eating a more healthy diet and a positive effect from that is I've started to lose a little weight.

hint hint nudge nudge, maybe a chocolate and raspberry torte tomorrow(if you take requests)

Ok Lexi then you can have the first slice Hope you are hungry these slices are humongous!!!! anyone fancy a ?

Sorry to hear that Addicted, that's a long while to have that uncertainty.
Hope your back soon.

chookford Fudge cake is my absolute favourite cake, definatly ice cream with this one

sorry to hear that Addicted hope it all works out for you and your back with us soon x

that's me stopping the bus to get off I'm afraid. I was put on risk of redundancy yesterday and having another baby without the guarantee of my salary is just not an option. So I'm checking out until the new year when I'll know one way or the other.

Good luck to you all and I'll continue to lurk to see all those BFPs.

Hello again,

I said that I wouldn't use OPKs until we had been trying for 6 mths, but my husband has convinced me to give them a try this month (after a friend of his became pregnant soon after starting to use them).

So I've started using Clear Blue digital sticks from CD6 this month. I know the instructions say you can use them in the morning, but after reading so many stories of them not working as well in the morning, I am using them at around 5pm each day (they're so expensive, I don't want to risk them not working!). I know earlier in the afternoon is ideal, but I'm at work then and really can't do the tests there!

It's torture as I normally drink a lot of water throughout the day. The instructions just state to not drink an excessive amount, but I think that what I normally drink would be considered excessive to most people (I'm always sipping from a water bottle) so I'm just having a tiny sip of water every hr between 1 and 5pm (and obviously not going to the loo during this time).

CD6 seems early to start testing for a 28 cycle; I'm going with it this month as it's the first, but I'll start later next month (maybe CD10). I'm on CD9 now and no smiley yet.

I have everything crossed for you Taking even my eyes, which makes cooking quite frankly dangerous, but worth the danger for a smiley face!!

You are welcome 33

Any requests for tomorrows cake? I was thinking chocolate fudge?! I shall make a big pot of brew too and everyone can have a sing-song on the party bus! (I am calling it that as anything that comes with cake and tea is a party in my eyes!)

taking I am going to plump for a 28 day cycle (even though cycle 1 was only 23 days!). Please can you put me down for a BFP on Oct 9th? TVM.

Thanks chook I luuuuuurve apple pie. nom nom nom.

hello all, and welcome newcomers.
Thanks for the feedback, I think I am going to hold off on the ovulation sticks for this month. For me, I think it would just be another thing to rattle around in my TTC brain. I know its early days but seems like once you make the big decision to try a BFP can't come fast enough . I am determined not to get consumed with the mechanics and try to enjoy the process. If we don't have any luck in the next couple of months I expect I'll rethink using OPK.
Hope no-one minds but until then my TTC stresses are going to be played out strictly on MN and not in RL!

How about Custard flavour Ice-Cream?!

chookford I'd love some apple pie. Do you have custard or ice cream, not that it matter's I like both

Thanks taking
