Well I thought I'd get the ball rolling and start up the October bus, there's plenty of Cake and Wine on board and extra comfy seats for relaxing into those BFP's

Hi everyone... welcome aboard from me :)

Thanks for the tip kemie I will defo look into reflexology.

I am currently lying in bed with pillow under my hips trying to assist spermies upstream (too much info I hear you say? Pah!)

I am expecting ov in 2 days so have been busily working on my plan and it seems to be doing the trick. Grin

My plan is fun sex at night where he can come or not!! followed by dtd in the morning where he delivers the goods!! Every other day! but he is liking this plan so has also been daily.

I bought some fabulous long black leather gloves in Spain and whipped them out with some killer heels which did the trick!! So its a late morning rise... mwahaha.

My moto is have fun with it...

good luck everyone... destination BFP :)

Welcome to all the newbies on board, finger crossed that October is THE month!

I've been feeling really down all week, it's just not happening fast enough and the usual seemingly surrounded by pregnant people and new babies! Although stopping in Exeter services on return from holiday my mum confirmed that I wasn't going mad and that in fact we were surrounded in a big circle of babies whilst I was supping my (decaf) coffee!

Went for reflexology yesterday, and came out feeling a different woman! Mood completely lifted, it has successes with fertility but I totally recommend it if only to feel better, hopefully it'll work on the baby making front as well.

Good luck to all

jaykay987 · 13/09/2013 17:10

Hello. Can I join you please?

I won't stay long, as Im grumpy/sulking that AF just got me after my body teasing me with high bbt temps and lots of new symptoms this month.

We're ttc#1 cycle 2 (month 3). DH and I are both 32.

I'll be back when Im feel more positive!

keepswimming1 · 13/09/2013 13:39

Hey guys - Looks like I might have to get off this bus, DH is away and I'm pretty sure he wont be back for this months Ovulation ... gutted :( only time will tell I guess.
I see this bus is starting to fill up now.. Good luck to you all

Hope you all have a lovely weekend :)

RaRaZ · 13/09/2013 11:14

Thanks Funnymonk. Hopefully a good few of us will be lucky this time around Smile

SoMuchFruit · 13/09/2013 10:29

Can I climb on ?

ttc#2, cycle 3, BFP due 11 Oct

Kemie I was also 34 ttc#1 and he's now 4 :D That seemed easy actually. DH crows that he has supersperm, I think we were exceedingly lucky having a BFP on cycle 2 and only managing to DTD once that cycle as he was away with work!

TTC# seems to be a slower, less lucky situation. I have a plan though..

Stopped BF mid August, it's been almost a month and just no sign of my body doing anything but we are doing "it" every other day so I'll sign up to this thread but not feeling too positive!

Took a while before, just hope it will be faster this time, I'm impossibly broody!

Funky, I only tried it for one cycle but was on 50 for about three months prior. If they were the cause of extra sore boobs for almost entire 2ww then I'd rather keep at 50. I have a regular 28 day cycle give or take a day every now and then with spotting a couple of days before, haven't temped or used opk's as OH prefers I didn't (to much science and pressure on him), so I just use my days app and guess really. Going for reflexology on Friday, although last time I went she said I was very healthy and everything is doing what it should, and not to worry about the spotting.
Re OH, he'd like to come off a/d if he can, only on a low dose at mo but at least we can go to GP and discuss it more/maybe get some tests to see what's going on.

Hi kemie, I think its def worth him talking to a doctor and seeing if he can be weaned off the meds. Hopefully its not causing a problem but if it is then at least you know. Is he in a position that he could try stopping them?
How long is your luteal phase? This cycle I'm going to try 50mg b6 up to ov and then 100mg after. Did you try for more than 1 cycle? I believe some women need to try it for a few cycles to see the difference.
