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

EWCM = egg-white cervical mucus (ie the fertile stuff)
OPK = ovulation prediction kit

There's no point me posting a photo as I can only see it by holding it up to the light and squinting, but I'm sure it's there! And have been feeling nauseous all day so have a 'good' feeling Smile

Am very confused by a lot of the ttc acronyms though...what do ewcm and opk stand for? ( have worked out fmu!)

Hello all,
Big congratulations on the positives. Although AF arrived this morning I'm still hopeful for an October BFP. can someone please delete and add me back. As this is my first period since having implant out my details are as follows.

JoHull: cycle 1 BFP 30/10/13
Will be POAS to check ovulation CD 15
I will be watching as the posts keep coming, but I won't be posting until the middle if the month.

Good luck ladies x

LH1981 · 02/10/2013 18:54

Thanks Choccy - to you too! Got everything crossed for loads of BFPs on this bus! Will feel a bit silly telling my friend it was just a moment of madness, but she's a bestie so I'm sure we'll have a giggle together!

Choccywoccydodah · 02/10/2013 18:54

I can't see a line LH, but if its really faint, it prob won't show up very well on my phone. Hope it is a bfp tomorrow!!

Choccywoccydodah · 02/10/2013 18:51

Wow good luck LH!!!! Yet to look at your piccie so will have a look in a min.

Ov test neg now at 6.30, so I'm officially on the 2ww, may it be a quick one!!

GnomieGrace · 02/10/2013 18:28

Congrats on all the BFPs ladies! Such a lucky bus glad I jumped on!

LH1981 · 02/10/2013 17:56

OK, I may have to hang on a few more days then. Will still do cheapie tomorrow with FMU. Was so sure this time! PS, have thought I've poss seen a line a couple of times before, but never have I rushed out to a friend's house to double check lil! X

Snowlet · 02/10/2013 17:41

Hmmm wispa there's obviously different charts floating about!

In any case the point is, they're not all the same. And I'm absolutely sure that Superdrug is 10 because they print it on their pamphlet that comes with the test, so get one of those perhaps??

wispaxmas · 02/10/2013 17:38

I thought FRER was 12.5 and CBD with the numbers was 25. Normal CBD without the numbers is 50..

And congratulations!! Grin

Snowlet · 02/10/2013 17:37

Also, OMG!! so many BFPs I've missed today, congratulations to everyone, so excited!

Snowlet · 02/10/2013 17:37

LH the FRER is 25miu, the CBD is I think 50! Superdrug tests are 10, so there's a wide discrepancy. I didn't use the CBD until I'd had positives for I think four days, so don't lose hope!

LH1981 · 02/10/2013 17:14

Think I might be crazy. I still see it on the pic but it is so faint it could be nothing. Ah well, tomorrow will tell x

Nulanoo · 02/10/2013 17:12

Congratulations!!!!

My AF not arrived yet, thought she would after wiping pink ish this morning

Got my fingers tightly crossed!

lucyfluff · 02/10/2013 17:05

Ummmm I had a look and can't see a line sorry, but good plan with fmu tmrw. Maybe it's just a bit early to pick it up :)

Good luck LH x

LH1981 · 02/10/2013 17:02

Have put a pic of the test up...anyone see a line?

LH1981 · 02/10/2013 16:56

Well, my friend agrees there's a line on the First Response test. Although it's very faint.

Did that test at about 1:45pm. Just did a CB digi and it came up Not Pregnant. Pah!

Does anyone know testing times FR vs CB? Got myself all excited then, perhaps over nothing.

Have another CB digi and a sainsburys cheapie in the cupboard so may piac tomorrow with FMU and see if the cheapie registers anything.

Sorry to get people excited! X

mama31 · 02/10/2013 16:39

Life for short then!! Lol very good! I like it :)

lifehasafunnywayofhelpinguout · 02/10/2013 16:25

Hi Mama. Ex International here. I wanted a more meaningful username so I chose this one take from a line in the song. Isn't it ironic.
You summed it up perfectly mama. It does feel like a weight has been lifted. xx

Owlie84 · 02/10/2013 15:58

WOW!! So many BFPs!!! That's so cool! Congratulations everyone! Grin
And welcome to all the new passengers! Wink

Not much to report here, I'm 9DPO, and every symptom Im feeling seems to be something I can explain away! Grr, not helpful, I know! So far I still have a slight backache, mild headache (too much computer work?), occasional mild stomach twinges (PMS?), sore boobs (again, mild, PMS?) and feel a bit spacey! But it all sounds normal(ish), so I'm a bit annoyed! Who knows...

LH have you had your friend take a look at your pic yet? Wink

mama31 · 02/10/2013 15:45

International I am very glad to hear that! I'm sure its much nicer to have honesty and to be open in your relationship....you must feel like a weight has been lifted off you. I'm glad its worked out for the best :) even though it happened with something so difficult....

MundayCakes85 · 02/10/2013 15:42

Vicky I had the same feeling when I got a +ve OPK, inappropriately excited. Imagine what I'll be like when I get a BFP! Congratulations LH- what did your friend think?
Hello new people, this bus is picking up speed

internationallove985 · 02/10/2013 15:42

Hi Mama. Yes he is the loop. Feels much better to be honest. I'll allow everyone to say. "Told you so." Hey, you're all human, you're bound to say that. He's very eager. It's ironoc that we both wanted the same thing but obviously didn't communicate effectively. Looking forward to the witch leaving so we can get on with creating our little miracle. Hopeful next time it will work out.

Also good luck to you as well. xxx

mama31 · 02/10/2013 15:32
