All ttc or expecting their BFPs welcome. Fingers crossed for a fantastically fertile February!

Oh, and please can someone tell me what NUDP stands for?

Itschristmas, i'm sorry you're feeling low. I feel for you, i felt lucky that although it took a while i did at least have a ds already. Anyone ttc for that long for their first needs a medal. I hope if you do need to go down the ivf your get lots of support and all is ok. I have my fx especially for you and the the other old timers on these buses

English - all fine thanks. It was just an initial hello - put me in the system kind of thing, although she was obviously pleased that i was in there with happy news! I will wait a while before i call midwives for next apt as i don't wan to jinx things! Will see if i can make it until next thursday probably when i'll be 6 weeks.
Luckily i have a busy week with work and off to centre parks this weekend with friends so that will be fun!

Hi All
I'm new on this particular thread but have been coming and going since initially ttc last April. Had 2 MCs last year. TTC no. 3 since last MMC in August. Have mild endo.

I have 30 day cycles. I ov'd around the 15th January. Sore boobs and twinges in my abdomen. But trying not to get hopes up. Not sure when I should POAS. Will hold off until AF appears, or doesn't. Anyway, just saying hello and good luck to everyone.

Thank you sazzle. I really don't want to go down the ivf route, but if we have to then we have no other option. I'm struggling to stay positive this cycle, I was so sure cycle 13 would be it! Amazing size follicles and very high progesterone on day 21 which suggests I definitely ov'd.. Then I got the massive kick in the face by the witch! Feeling super low.

Uh oh...9dpo and af symptoms starting to show up! :(

Retro I'm also trying to sell my house. I'm even wondering if I get BFP whether to take it off the market and wait so I don't get too stressed. But then again I want a nice new house - oooh decisions. When did we become so grown up!?!

Hello everyone! I'm having a bit of a humf! Af came a day early last Tuesday. It was horrendous to the point I went back to dr Wednesday as it would appear my endo has returned with a vengeance! Last 2 cycles absolutely horrendous! However the flood that meant I couldn't leave the house for 2 days is now completely gone now, which is a day or so early. Which is good news! I could be on this bus a very long time though! So glad of the company.

Lol! I swear the staff in semi chem snigger when I come in!

Ooh, mama31, we could be bfp buddies! Hope you get your positive soon.

Hello all

I'm still hoping I can catch that Jan bus at the last minute! 7DPO today and I caved and POAS this morning . Nothing. Of course. Far too early.

I shall be POAS-ing daily until AF arrives or I get my bfp. I got a positive OPK, so I'm pretty sure I ovulated. and a making up all sorts of non-symptoms Just got to keep fingers (but never legs) crossed!

We're also in the middle of trying to sell our house, so it's all rather stressful. Will be glad when I know either way.

Interesting,you say that, barmy, my AF has been the shortest it has ever been-full 'flow' Thursday, completely finished by Saturday. Usually, my AF is 7+ days! Def try POAS again, seeing as you only had spotting, otherwise, it could just have been a little one . (loving the Burns Night smileys!)

missmrs - Valentines Day will be particularly special for all of us on the Feb bus, with or without BFPs, I'm sure!

Tried acupuncture one month but wasn't convinced. And it was so expensive on top of everything else I'm buying, opk tests, homeopathic stuff etc. Should have opened a new bank account for all this

Kitty like the idea but he will be here when I poas as he's so keen!

I'm game for poas party on 14th! Who else?

Thanks sazzle. Only on cycle 3 so I reckon I'll suggest it if no bfp by cycle 6. I'll be v stressed with SATs by then so I'll need it!

Yeah I hope so but you never know whats going to happen!!
.fingers crossed you on the meds. Have you tried reflexology? Sounds relaxing :)

If af comes this time im going for clear blue ovulation tests (the expensive ones!) Haha

Hey toots, everything's going in your favour then so you never know. This could be your lucky month. After so long, despite best efforts, the shagging is getting to be rather prescriptive when it's done ttc as opposed to fun. Yeah, gp's, specialists etc. trying 6 months on fertility drugs (this is month 1 of 6) then prob ivf which I'd obviously rather avoid!

Not long ginger this is second month since stopping pill at end of Oct. Im young and healthy so hoping it wont be long. 15 months huh, that must be hard. But then all that shagging isnt too bad lol. Have you spoken to your gp? Sorry if you've already told your story, I cant keep up with MN all the time!

Sazzle, how'd you get on at the docs?

Well i officially am going mad.

Last night I dreamt I got a BFP. Fortunately I maintained willpower and didn't POAS. I am absolutely not doing that until at least 12dpo (1st Feb) after AF due.
And then. HR have slotted me in a sickness review on Weds. As i was so rude as yo have a day off work when my migraines returned in december. I find myself thinking testing Weds at 9dpo might be good to not be sat there distracted by the wait for BFN.

I need a break. So, after this cycle i need to go cold turkey. A cycle off sticks. Gearing myself up for it now.

Here! Here TOOTS, how long you been ttc? This is month 15 for me, it's a long ol' slog.

Yeah ginger suppose we are in with a chance! Im feeling really positive this month and hoping if thia isnt our month then it will be soon! :)

Thankyou sazzle! I'm trying to keep busy but at 6dpo now....and all I can think of and dream of is babies...my mind is out of control I am obsessed with getting my bfp and even when I'm trying to distract myself and keep busy then I dream about it in my sleep!!! Arrrggghhh when is this going to end with a big fat bfp for me!!!!

Tigsy - i'm not that ticklish but they press quite firmly so i think you'd be ok!

And to those asking when to go - missmrs snowbells my lady said as near to ov as possible - so the days leading up to it is best. I think i went the day before i ov. And once a month around ov is fine she said, no more...
And mine was £45 first session for one hour, then follow up session would have been £40.

Itschristmas - hope its lucky cycle14 for you too.

Missmrs - if he can spend that much on a computer for gaming you are definitely entitled to a reflexology session!!!! What cycle are you on? If necessary put a date on it so example - if we aren't preggo by cycle blah blah you get your treatment then...

Ooh spinning - where are you off to. Sorry if that is too nosy! Just roughly

mama good luck staying crazy free over the next few days - have my fx for you.

Hi all, sorry for crashing. Barmy, sounds like it may be implantation bleeding, getting peeing lol!

Toots, my specialist said sex day before ov is best as gives the little blighters time to get to target so sounds like good timing to me. Fingers crossed for you ??

Hi All

Ive been keeping a lowish profile too as finding this all quite draining and wanted to try and get some perspective on it all and think its helped! Im in my 2ww now so just going to keep busy and try not to think about it or symptom spot! (unlikely I know!)

Just been catching up and see the koala plan is still going strong amongst you! :)

Thanks Barmy

Your spotting is strange, fx af stays away and you get a bfp!!
