January 2014 bus. New year, new bfps!!!

And Ginger, I know how you feel about being in limbo land, it's getting a little soul destroying.

It took me 5 years to fall pregnant with ds#1 so I know it can feel like it's never going to happen. Try not to stress, I really believe that being rekaxed is the key. In fact it was only when I accepted we wouldn't have kids naturally and we stopped 'trying' that I fell pregnant!

Good luck and happy thoughts to all you lovely ladies having a rubbish day xx

Good luck and synchronise watches Sazzle!

English are you temping at the same time every day... Won't help different thermometers thing but I know on my chart if I am more than 30mins out it will give me n empty circle and disregard the data.....

Bfn by way of a change. :( not a whiff of the line I imagined saw last night. Af due next week if it were to appear

Just thought I'd say hello and congrats to the bfps. I'm firmly in 2ww now - I think I'm 8 DPO, maybe 9. Don't feel any symptoms of anything. It's my best friend's birthday on the 13th which is when I'm due on so maybe she'll bring me luck!

So sorry to those in limbo - LH and Ginger I would have gone completely barmy by now...

Congrats fairypants!

Choccy - so hoping you are pg...surely reconising signs is a good thing?!

CD13 here and peak on my machine which is a few days earlier than normal. Here goes then...!

Morning ladies!
Congratulations Fairy.
And big hugs to all those having a tough time right now. I had a meltdown yesterday. Combination of hating where we live, boredom from not working, missing friends and family and not being pregnant. Just felt so down
Feeling better today... I think. And DH is being very good with the TTC malarkey.

Another thing that's winding me up... I'm temping - I brought a new thermometer and used both the new one and old one to compare.... Such different results! And ff is giving me the little empty circles (inaccurate data) instead of the solid ones on my chart. Have been inputting the data from the old thermometer. Not making charting much easier to understand!

Well bfn today, no surprises. Now cd58. In a foul mood today, plus I trapped a nerve in my back this morning and somebody put an empty packet of nurofen back in the cupboard!!
I shall take my bad mood somewhere else lol

Morning

Congratulations Fairypants

Petite.....sorry your dh took his work/travel frustrations out on you! That seems to be very typical of men!! And they really don't understand the whole trying ttc thing, it's very different for a woman I think and it's always sad when af arrives

RetroHippy TTC #1 cycle #1 hoping for bfp by end of Jan.

No idea when to expect AF as last months cycles have been 26 and 50 days (bloody microgynon!). Wasn't expecting to be on this bus as DH said Feb but then changed his mind got bored of using condoms

CD 16 today, OPKs say no ovulation so far, so looking like another long cycle this month. Oh well, will just have to keep DTD just in case

Congrats to all the BFPs so far! Going to be an exciting 2014 for lots of us!

Congrats to Fairypants and all the other lovely BFPs!
Sorry you are having such a stressful time Petit when we get our lovely BFps we will look back on the and laugh.....
Absolutely know what you mean Honey DH and I reckon it should be like those strong man machines at fairgrounds, you know the ones you hit the plate really hard with the hammer and try and get the bell to ding at the top ? How great would that be.... DTD and wait for the DING and flashing light..... gooooooaaaal!
AFm CD20 here had peaks on CBFM on days 17 and 18
after a longer 30 day cycle last month Am determined not to POAS until day period is due.... Back to work tomorrow so that will help!

munday you did make me giggle! One day wait would be so much easier lol. I did have a conversation with my dh last night about how he wished there was some kind of light system so that a green light would indicate pregnancy. How easy would that be?!

Taking up my seat. I think AF might be due on Sunday but no symptoms as of yet and it's first cycle post MC so I'll just have to wait and see.

Ginger. Its been 10 cycles now and I'm getting concerned that something is wrong.

Petite - That is very frustrating. Welcome aboard.

I think AF has got me. Almost certain actually. Had light spotting last night, this AM woke up with bad cramps and a heavier flow. Might just make it on the tail end of this bus.

HRMumness TTC#2 Cycle 2 BFP due 31st Jan

Am not at all miffed that DH insisted we wait until at least Christmas Day to try, even though this was probably too late to concieve, so have wasted a whole cycle. Nevermind that we have no family here and my DM offered to come from Oz stay with us to help with DD, despite planning to be here Christmas this year as well while his DM swans over here for a holiday and almost outright refused coming when #2 arrives because she won't get much of a holiday. I should add I actually said to her, would she like to be here, since DM was here last time and thought it would be nice for her to spend time with DD, be first to meet the next one.

Blimey new thread already? Congrats to all the new BFPs and hugs to those who've lost the plot/ are stuck in limbo land/ have silly DPs! Have some and

DH cracked me up yesterday- he said he was convinced I was already pregnant (I've managed to put on more than half a stone coming off the pill) and why hadn't I POAS yet- he say an advert that said it was 99% accurate 1 day afterwards! I had to explain that was after you period was due, not 1 day after sex!! Blokes are so clueless

Can I hop back on this bus please. Stats will be ttc#1 cycle2 BFP due end Jan/beginning Feb so might just scrape through for this month's.

cotton why drs?

cotton why drs?

Thinking Ill be off this bus soon, stomach cramps and shouted at DH loads tonight for no reason, usually the case just before af appears.... Sigh. Wondering if it's time for a trip to the drs.....

Officially lost the plot

just sat and decided when to pee on certain sticks
"Tomorrow is amazon cheapie"
"Friday is frer"
husband is looking at me funny

If no af by then, I give up and will pee on opk's in the morning just so I see a line

And Ginger, I know how you feel about being in limbo land, it's getting a little soul destroying.

It took me 5 years to fall pregnant with ds#1 so I know it can feel like it's never going to happen. Try not to stress, I really believe that being rekaxed is the key. In fact it was only when I accepted we wouldn't have kids naturally and we stopped 'trying' that I fell pregnant!

Good luck and happy thoughts to all you lovely ladies having a rubbish day xx

Ahh Thanks Kitty! You guys here are so lovely! I was so cross with DP this evening and was planning to say all this to him, but I knew it would cause a huge row, as he was in a mood. And then I realised exactly where I could come for a bit of TTC sympathy. Getting all teary now (in a good way).

Good luck Ginger, LH for POAS tomorrow...roll on the BFPs. And fingers crossed for you, Choccy!! Will you POAS in the morning, or wait??

Oh gosh so sorry some of you are having a hard time or feeling down at the moment. Ttc is such an emotional business.

petite feel free to rant honey. Men just do.not.get.it. In fact that should be a new mumsnet acronym... mjdngi.
Chin up! At least as of tomorrow you can make as much mess as you like ...and text him pics if the mess x

missmrsmummy-don't really have any answers but you may just have to wait and see as you could still be in the chance for an Autumn baby (though I'm sure winter baby will be just as fab!)
