The May bus sets off for those who regularly check for their Cervical Lucas, take frolic acid, shout SYMPTOMS, throw out their BastardSticks but then buy more to piss on and just want to be upduffed!

Ok so now officially one day late- fertility friend is telling me to take a test- i don't have any in the house and have decided to wait until Sunday at the earliest. Not holding out much hope as a lot of scenarios like when seem to end with the late arrival of period. Damn you body for getting my hopes up

Happy Friday everyone!

Anyone ever had EWCM for over a week but then gone on to OV as normal? I'm worried that I've had it for too long and it's my body trying but failing to OV?! I'm temping too and had a rise yesterday and it's been maintained today but I took my temperature at 7 after getting up for a wee at 5 so don't know how accurate it would be?! Definitely second the fuck my body and life sentiment englishgirl

Temp Still high (although that could be the 3-4 drinks I had last night)!! Still spotting brown. Fuck my life. Fuck you body!!

Morning everyone,

I've just been reading back and rambini you are an inspiration to us all, this will be your month :)

Just thought I'd pop on and console myself that AF is nearly over, had 2 days of spotting when AF was meant to be due, then 10 days later full on AF confused!

oh well, back on the soon hehe

Can you hold on til Sunday and try again kurama?

Chair, fx the temp change is a sign

Kurama it could be too early!

I'm away for the weekend from today, not due to ov till wed/thurs....really need to plan these trips better

due on sun/mon decided to poas and bfn! why do I do this to myself !

Haha your attempts should go down in the ttc hall of fame rambini, may they pay off!

Fingers crossed for implantation chaircat!

Hello ladies. Have been trying not to come on here as much or symptom spot. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. As if.

I've lasted til now(6dpo). I have had a massive temp spike this morning which of course has me believing that it's implantation.

Is it all possible to get through the TWW without losing one's sanity? I think not

Im the same, plan on being all level headed and sensible but end up caving. Due to silly long cycles my 2 week wait is nearer a 3 week wait too which is horrible! Plus we have tried SO hard this month (as those who read my post the other day can testify! ) So am likely to be really impatient this month!

Hi RachieS

At this point in the cycle, I can say I'm going to hold off on testing unless AF is late, but once in the two week week I feel like the poas beast is unleashed. I managed to wait until the day af was due to test as testing early in previous cycle just made me feel rubbish. I'm trying to have a bit more of a plan this month so I think by the time tww comes around I'm going to be too impatient to see whether its worked!

What about you Rambini?

Anyone notice they've given us a ? Why would we need a bike? Give us back the mumsnet! Please!!

Hey hoping onto this nice new shiny bus. TTC #2 cycle 2 BFP due 15th

Yay sounds good cress how long do you think you will manage to hold off and resist temptation?

Evening all

Rambini, very similar stats indeed! We can be poas buddies if you're game.

Getting a faint line which has been getting gradually stronger on the opk cheapies, gearing up for a positive in the next few days hopefully!

Hi all! I might try temping next cycle. OPKs don't seem to give me consistent results! Is temping more reliable?

Well I'm cd22.... I will NOT poas until af is due on 14th May!

No SYMPTOMS at all... af or pg. Usually get cramping the week before af.... could that be a SYMPTOM?

Thanks english! If I do it I'll be on cycle 7 in July so thats probably a good time for me to start if no bfp.
Af due next week. Come on little bean!!

Yeah wait til Saturday English, my ic just had the faintest of lines on 13 dpo, not much better on 14 dpo and yesterday it finally looked proper positive at 19 dpo

Hope so Spinning! Sick and tired of it if i'm honest!

Toots, you need a basal body temp thermometer (it measures to 2 decimal places), take it before you get out of bed, same time every day, after at least 4 hours sleep. Track on fertility friend. Temps will stay low til ovulation then spike and should stay up until af. Fertility friend confirms ovulation after 3 consecutive higher temps. Hope that helps.

Oh English how frustrating!! Hopefully when you get back to the UK your doc will be able to help you.

I find temping really useful Toots. It's shown that there's been month when i haven't ovulated. I've also printed all my charts so I can give the drs as much info as possible.

I doubt it Linda, although it's mostly been brown there has been some red, although not much. Not much is actually making its way out- had a liner on all day and nothing - just when I have a poke around as I do!!
I used an ic, which I did just dig it out, there's a very faint evap. DH thinks i've lost the plot! If nothing more arrives I'll try again on saturday.

Could the brown spotting be IB? What tests are you using? I hope they get things looked into quickly for you so you can find out what's going on

Donyou all find temping helpful? Might start it in July. On holiday next month so wont be tracking ovulation at all :)

Any tips for when I give it a go?
