New Year, New Hope. Jan Bus (part3)

It's hard to admit that we really have little control over our bodies as opposed to other areas of our lives. I must admit that if AF arrives, I will feel better knowing I did everything I could and will feel it was a waste if I missed just one DTD session or tested OPK at the right time etc. In reality though, we really shouldn't beat ourselves up over it but easier said than done, huh?! Maybe this is Fate's way of saying enjoy the Koala Plan next month

Imaginary I was 18 mts ttc last time after mc, prior to that I'd always fallen at drop of a hat, so I may be around sometime. Im so sorry I know some months were worse than others for me last time too.

Thanks kitty . However, this is pretty standard for me. Thought after the 2 chemicals Ive just had it might have at least shaken my cycle up a bit but looks like its reverting back to exactly what was happening before -lateish ovulation and early spotting. I suppose theres still a slim chance but going off my track record I think I pretty much know how its gonna go. Sorry to sound so negative. I think I'd been pinning my hopes on this cycle more than I realised and now feeling at a loss as how to 'fix' it.

9dpo is still pretty early and lots of women have spotting throughout pregnancy so don't give up hope yet!

Happy birthday owlie!

Just tested fmu with an ic and bfn, and then spotting when I wiped so looks like I'm on my way out. 9dpo ffs. Gutted. Will stay on board until af comes properly, probably in a few days but pretty much lost hope for this month now.

Happy birthday Owlie!

Happy Birthday, Owlie! I'll be celebrating a third of a century on the 28th Jan-hoping to get my BFP before then

So, still on the Jan Bus too and getting impatient, Grrr

I'm still here as well, I'm on cd23 and cycles have been around 40 days.
dtd last night and nearly fell off the bed trying to get my legs up the wall DH thinks I gave gone mad!

Congratulations to all the BFP.

Sorry for those that AF has got

Happy Birthday to Owlie

Congratulations Honey and Amy- this bus seems to be getting very lucky!
CD38 here and a BFN for me huge temp spike today and still have that heavy feeling but STILL no AF. I don't like limbo land but maybe I ovulated later??
Good luck on the Feb bus Donna, FX you get your sticky bean soon x

I'm still here! AF/BFP due next Sunday :) I'm on 8dpo and feel annoyingly normal. and it's my 30th birthday today! Boooo :(

Congrats to all the new BFPs!!! And sorry to the others for the cruel arrival of AF :(

We could do with an update! So many BFPs but quite a few gone to Feb bus.
I'm still here! BFP due 24th

But now I feel like AF is coming to get me! Was cd 24 last time and that's tomorrow for me.

Lol I think we gave pretty much identical explanations, I just used more words haha!

Congratulations kitty any and honey!! Here's hoping to healthy sticky happy pregnancies!

Sorry all BFNs

Are there many people left on the Jan bus?? My AF/BFB isn't due til 30th?

Your explanation is better, ImaginaryHat

Whoops x post with kitty on ewcm!

Whoops x post with kitty on ewcm!

Wow congrats kitty, Amy and honey, what a great start to the weekend for the Jan bus!!

MrsExtra ewcm is egg white cervical mucus. Its when your cervical mucus goes thin and stretchy, like an egg white consistency. It happens around the time of ovulation and helps the sperm reach their destination. However, not everyone gets it (I get a bit but not a lot), so there are a few tricks rumoured to help, like the cough medicine or various supplements. I usually use preseed which mimics it, used cough medicine early this cycle too.

Very happy for,you, Honeybear! -fantastic news! You must be on cloud nine

MrsE, EWCM is the 'mucus' or discharge that is quite clear and stretchy and best for all the little,swimmers and peaks around the time of ovulation.

Yay Honey!

Ewcm? Sorry I AM a newbie!

Explains why I didn't get any luck Googling NUDP-forgot it was part of the Koala plan!

Can I ask what evening primrose oil is good for in pg? I used to take it for pmt but stopped as it said not advised if ttc.
I'm currently taking a concoction:
Thyroxine, iron, folicacid, calcium & magnesium.

So it turns out those cramps must have been implantation cramps since I got a bfp this morning! Dh convinced me to be brave and do my first test so that we would just know. I'm very happy but also cautious as this is pg #1, baby #1.

Just to reassure you all, other than cramps on 11 and 12 DPO I have no symptoms. Nothing at all out of the ordinary. I was convinced on those days it was over. And then I just felt like af wasn't coming which is why I did the test. But honestly I feel completely normal. So there is always hope!!
