Thanks everyone!
I will keep you updated but must be my cycles playing tricks on me.
Thanks Littlemiss, I'm ok just feeling sorry for myself and annoyed my cycle has changed!
Fx for you all :)

missmrsmummy · 19/01/2014 12:51

Aw how lovely Writer! I am enjoying being on the bus.. makes the whole journey of ttc so much more enjoyable (journey - get it? lol)

I'm nervous of getting bfp and having to move to a new thread! I hope our Jan bus friends will be there!

Writerwannabe83 · 19/01/2014 12:37

No problem sazzle I promise to try and do as good a job as you have!!

mrsmummy - I'm just over 30 weeks now. I'm not a mad bus stalker honestly, it's just that I find myself keep hanging around to watch previous fellow passengers get their BFPs!!! Plus, these bus threads are always full of so much positivity, fun and support that I could read them for hours! Being on the bus (even in a 'just watching' capacity) is the nicest place to be on the entire MN forum Smile

LittleMissSunshine33 · 19/01/2014 12:36

Sorry to hear that treacle hope you're ok!

How early is too early to POAS? 2dpo?? Wink

sazzlehopes · 19/01/2014 12:33

Write, you are an absolute love, thank you that would be so helpful! I have a big work week ahead and working from home is very distracting! I like doing the stats but it takes up time and mean i get even more distracted by reading back through pages and pages of symptoms for me to obsess over!
I love that you hanging around with us, it's lovely to have you here! Grin xxx

missmrsmummy · 19/01/2014 12:33

How lovely, Writer! How many weeks are you?

Writerwannabe83 · 19/01/2014 12:31

Me and DH are going accessory shopping soon for our new kitchen and nursery stuff so will be out for most of the day but I promise to work on the Stats as soon as I get back Smile

missmrsmummy · 19/01/2014 12:26

Oh no, Treacle! Keep us updated though, just in case!

Thanks Writer I'm excited to see the updated stats! Hope you are ok x

Good work on the virgin cocktails Kitty! I drove last night so I didn't drink and I had a good excuse. I'm driving to a family lunch today but they won't have that as an excuse as I'd usually have a small glass of wine... just a shame they will assume I'm actually pregnant rather than just ttc and get all excited :-/

DH has asked again if any sign of AF and how am I feeling! Really hoping for BFP for his sake!

KittyVonCatsington · 19/01/2014 12:25

Oh no! So sorry Treaclepie very cross on your behalf! The Feb bus is going to be your lucky one Grin

Treaclepie19 · 19/01/2014 12:10

I think I'm probably off the bus early as blood seems to have increased. Good luck everyone!

Will stay lurking but going to hop on the Feb bus now.

Writerwannabe83 · 19/01/2014 11:59

sazzle - I don't mind being conductor for you if you'd like??

It will probably be a lot easier for me seeing as I'm signed off sick so not only will it give me something productive to do each day (and I have the time to do it) it also gives me a reason to stick around and watch all the BFP's come rolling in!!! At least if I have a role of doing the Stats I'm not just the crazy pregnant lady who stalks you all Grin It means you lot can all just focus on Symptom Spotting and POAS and leave the rest to me Smile

KittyVonCatsington · 19/01/2014 11:40

Friday it is then Grin

No nausea today. Reading back over others' symptoms, I had the milky white discharge a few days ago too. Was good last night at an engagement party and had virgin cocktails-no one noticed! Let's help us get through the next few days together.

missmrsmummy · 19/01/2014 10:46

sazzle I hope we can survive AF til then! I have never been late either, in fact last months AF gig me today so my cycle was only 23 days. If I get to Fri it'll be 28 days

sazzlehopes · 19/01/2014 10:43

missmrs - hooray poas buddies! i'll do my best to hold off til then. to be honest if i do get that far, it will mean i'm actually one day late, and i haven't been late i don't think for the last 14 cycles! eeeekkkkk exciting! this week is going to be killer, from wednesday major knicker watch!! oh god those damn tests are calling out to me!!

missmrsmummy · 19/01/2014 10:21

DH is trying to hard not to get excited but keeps asking if I have AF pains... He could become as obsessive as us soon!

missmrsmummy · 19/01/2014 10:20

Hi sazzle! Yep, you me and Kitty - it's a poas date!

MrsF2510 · 19/01/2014 09:30

Bumpbangbump - I'm not sure the spots thing would be related to AF. I am about 2dpo bit have a huge spot (unusual for me) but I would assume it's the surge in eostrogen linked to OV rather than AF x

Treaclepie19 · 19/01/2014 08:55

Thanks barmy
It seemed a bit too heavy for IB earlier but I rarely have AF early. I'll have to wait and see.

barmybunting · 19/01/2014 08:53

Mrsb87, looking promising for you! Good luck!

barmybunting · 19/01/2014 08:52

sazzle, fingers crossed for you! Good luck with holding off testing until later in the week. I'll be thinking of you!

treacle if the bleeding is implantation bleed, I think it would be a bit early to get a bfp just now so I would give it a day or two then test again depending on whether you think it's af or not. Fingers crossed for you!

barmybunting · 19/01/2014 08:47

ItsChristmas that creamy cm is what I was wondering about as well a few days ago, copious amounts of it. I reckon it's a good sign!

I have heard similar things about sainsburys tests, I am not taking this one as anything but a reason to test again Smile . I'm off to superdrug later today and will test in the morn (if I can hold off!).

Fingers crossed for you, I hope this is it for you and your dh! it certainly sounds promising.

Treaclepie19 · 19/01/2014 08:47

I don't know what to think, thought AF was here cus of more normal blood in the night (had to go to the toilet at 4am, none on pad).
Woke up this morning expecting not to test but there wasnt as much blood as I'd have thought by now so tested and BFN(but I should only be 10DPO).
If this is AF then it means my luteal phase was too short. I've always had regular cycles so its really odd.

LittleMissSunshine33 · 19/01/2014 08:44

Hey all! Happy Sundays!

Glad to see there's still some on the bus! I have fingers x for all of you!

I'm now on the 2ww low fertile circle on my OPK and already wondering if the niggling in my stomach is a symptom ... It's going to be a long 2 weeks!

Just going to check out the recommended websites!

sazzlehopes · 19/01/2014 08:40

Hi all, Still here but keeping quiet(ish) so as not to get myself into a poas frenzy as usual!! I have a pretty busy week ahead which is good and may mean I can hold off until af will be late which is fri with i think kitty and missmrs as poas testing buddies? The 2 superdrug tests i bought yesterday are burning a hole in my cupboard but i really hope i don't break and use them early.....

Congrats to kitty, amy and honey on your bfp. Great news and thanks for all the details. posting on my phone (computer is playing games with me and the internet...) and can't update the stats so if someone else can be the conductor for a bit that'd be great!!

Barmy, sounds sort of promising - symptoms and semi failed test. buy a frer or superdrug and maybe try again later or tomorrow with fmu? fx.

mrsb87 · 19/01/2014 08:37

Ah barmy me too! Very faint line (I'm convinced anyway!!) But will hold off testing for a couple of days to confirn my suspicions
