Congrats posy

If that was light if it would make me cd 18 now. Done opk and negative but might keep trying them. Even if it just takes my mind off whats going on haha

katecupoftea · 02/03/2014 10:42

Okay you're going to have to direct us Feb bus latecomers to these much talked about pictures!

RetroHippy · 02/03/2014 10:40

Congrats Posy! Please don't leave us though, stick around and provide more amusing pictures Wink

DH is taking this very seriously since our little chat. So far we've managed 5/9 days... Just a few more days to keep it up and the we can relax!

I called the docs on Thursday to get my test results, and was told that because the GP who referred me was on holiday I couldn't get them till she got back next thurs Angry. So even though I know it won't make any difference to what we're doing I won't find out for another week Hmm. Annoyed!

kurama · 02/03/2014 10:37

congrats posy! know what I'm trying next month if I don't get a sticky bean this time! Grin

PolytheneGirl · 02/03/2014 10:34

Congratulation Posy. All that googling of dragon penises must have helped!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 02/03/2014 10:32

Congratulations posy Thanks

katecupoftea · 02/03/2014 10:29

Yes congratulations posy!!! You must be so pleased. Another March winner! 4/31!

PosyFossilsShoes · 02/03/2014 10:23

I used a Clearblue test this morning and it looks like I've got my BFP Grin Grin Grin

I'm now officially a convert to acupuncture!

katecupoftea · 02/03/2014 10:18

toots what days were the spotting? If it was a really weird and light af what cd would that put you on now? Could you try OPKs to see if there's sign of ov for a new cycle?
I can't imagine how frustrating this must be for you x

kurama · 02/03/2014 09:51

Yer my aunt seems to think it's ov too. With her brood she should know! guess ill have to wake dh up and tell him lol

Writerwannabe83 · 02/03/2014 08:58

Congratulations on the BFPs that have already materialised - this bus already seems luckier than the February bus so that's promising!!

The best of luck to you all this month Smile x x

toots123 · 02/03/2014 08:12

Yeah your right barmy. Previous cycles were 35 & 36 days so no idea why im so late!! Will try and leave it to the end of the week and test again before going.

Haha yeah spotti just imagine gp's face!!!
fx this is it but i dont feel like it due to all the bfn's. Having lots of cramps which is weird for me too so im certainly confused!!!!

gennibugs · 02/03/2014 08:10

Morning all

Impatience I'm sorry to read your post. That must be hard. Fx it's your time soon.

Well AF got me today properly so I'm out for this cycle Hmm but good news is that I will be able to squeeze another march cycle I. So can stay with you all and talk more pom poms, penis dragons and other such crucially vital topics!

So new stats are ttc#1 cycle 3 (I refuse to count my cycles from 2012) BFP due 28 march.

Have a good Sunday all.

barmybunting · 02/03/2014 08:07

kurama it could fit into ov then possibly. That's not helpful though when your not sure what's happening! Perhaps see how it feels later today and phone for some advice if still very sore?

Spotti · 02/03/2014 08:04

Had to chuckle at toots asking "have you seen my AF doc?" Which strangely translated to a bigs bunny voice in my head ("what's up, doc?").

Sorry you're having a reeeeeeeally long cycle Hun, but maybe it's not a cycle...maybe this is it and you've just not picked up on it yet (fx).

Impatience that sucks. Hope you get your sticky bean really soon! (This bus seems quite lucky - are we on a potential 5 BFPs already, and it's only day 2?)

Meh, this tww is driving me nuts! Not sure of I can cope going through many more! Each one I do makes me that little bit more crazy and I'm crazy enough without adding to it

kurama · 02/03/2014 08:03

barmybunting yes it was. well looking it was this week. (keep thinking it's monday) he said to did on 10-12-14 th day of cycle so I suppose as it's only day 16 it could be it. thought I had a line on opk on day 10 ( other days I've barely been able to see line) god this is confusing/annoying lol Confused

sazzlehopes · 02/03/2014 07:52

Impatience so sorry to hear of your mc. Take it east and let these crazy bus girls take care of you!

Mama!!! Urgh pants. So sorry. Hope you treated yourself last night to drink and chocolates!

Congrats to the 3 bfp's. A really good way to start the march bus!

barmybunting · 02/03/2014 07:49

kurama was it the Dr who prescribed you Clomid who thought you would be oving last week? I would do an opk to see if anything shows up. I'm not sure how long ov pain can last, I know mine is normally only a few hours but I think it probably differs from person to person.

toots I think you should see the Dr. You're fairly sure of when you ovulated and your cycles are normally regular, aren't you? It might be that you need blood tests to show up pregnancy.

kurama · 02/03/2014 07:37

barmy bunting I did wonder about that but I thought that only lasted a few hours? might have to poas again today ( ov one this time lol) hospital said he thought it could be about a week ago

toots123 · 02/03/2014 07:19

Morning all! Hope everyone is well

cd 51 and bfn!! I keep doubting myself now. Was the spotting I had just a really light and short af?! It was only there and nomore and never had that before...

Going a bit mad and should really try and see gp next week but feel silly and wouldn't know what to say other than "have you seen my af doc?"

barmybunting · 02/03/2014 07:00

Sorry, I meant kurama

barmybunting · 02/03/2014 07:00

karma, if it's tender to the touch I'm not sure this applies but my first thought was to wonder if it is ovulation pain? Are you ovulating just now do you know? Perhaps phone nhs 24 for some advice as it sounds rather sore.

impatience I'm so sorry to hear about your miscarriage. Life doesn't make sense sometimes. I hope you and DH can talk about how your both doing with each other.

choccy thanks for that. I have to say that your situation has been on my mind during the last month following my second chemical. I guess I should know about this cycle in the next week or so and if not a bfp, I will be off to the Dr about irregular cycles so we may well take a break during that cycle- I think dh is away when I'm due to next ovulate anyway so it may be an enforced break!

The spotting seems to have stopped this morning so I don't know what it's doing! At least full on af hasn't arrived.

kurama · 02/03/2014 06:46

Hey could use some advice this morn. I've been getting af like cramps and a dull to sharp pain in my lower right abdomen for about a day and half now. It's tender to the touch and im a bit worried but don't want to have to go to a+e unless I have to.... I'm on clomid and finished af around 2 weeks ago. so not sure if to early for anything or not???? poas yest aft and that was bfn Sad

EnglishGirlAbroad · 02/03/2014 00:01

Impatience, sorry you're going through this. I also had an early mc/chem. I prefer to call it early mc as for me that pregnancy was very real. Chem sounds so harsh. I truly wish you all the best. Try not to beat yourself up over it. I like to think it's natures way of saying timing isn't right. Good luck!! Smile

lindamagoo · 01/03/2014 23:19

So bored! My oh has put the boxing on and fell asleep on the remote Hmm Looks like it's bedtime for me. On the plus side my boobs are killing me and it's (hopefully) too soon to be af Smile
