FFS, I'm so sorry English- after your anovulatory cycles, you deserved some good luck. Keep an eye on it, just in case. If you aren't still hungover, enjoy a bank holiday Wine before you go back to Amsterdam

Think I'm out. 11dpo, cm has turned to the pre-AF browny colour I usually get. Can expect the bitch tomorrow or Wednesday. Temp is still up but again I expect that to drop tomorrow Angry

KittyVonCatsington · 05/05/2014 07:51

CD35. Was expecting AF when I went to the toilet as is always the case. Nothing. Too scared to POAS in case bfn and in which case, could be in for a long and wasted anovuluatory cycle-aaaaaaaah!

Hi Kitty Grin thanks for thinking of me! Last cycle my LP was 12 days and this time 10 so I think it's doing something! I knew AF was coming (6 days of spotting!!! That's a new low!) but I kept thinking, just one more day, pleeease!

How are you doing?

I like your thinking Mam and my DH is the same. He hates these companies that cash in on vulnerable TTC-ers! I'm also trying not to try too much and tbh it has helped a bit. I didn't even cry when AF came today!

Temping was useful this cycle for me to confirm I had ov'd but it was all over the place after that!

Didn't use opks.

Used ConceivePlus lube once but it's so hard to tell how much you've 'applied' from those tubes... had another whizzing around on the bed experience!

Still having reflexology but that's also because I'm still suffering from stress.

Enjoy the bank hol everyone! Wine

Mam31 · 04/05/2014 23:01

I know Kitty, I'm trying to take the not-obsessed approach but it doesn't work coz I'm always checking in on the banter on the buses...even though I'm not on them now! lol also check in on another thread for long timers! But generally this month is the first I've no idea what's happening, cycle start date or anything! I'm living life now....the baby will come I know it ;) and for you too lovely!

KittyVonCatsington · 04/05/2014 22:58

I was thinking about you today, missmrs sorry the red bitch got you-consider yourself added and yay for getting two goes at May! Is the vitamin b6 helping your LP?

mama -wallowing in all things TTC but enjoying the witty banter along the way Grin This will all be worth it when we get our sticky beans, it will !!!!

Hello all! Just thought I'd hop on briefly to congratulate all the Penis Dragon Graduates and wave to everyone else; there is loads of space on the A/N Dragon bus and we are keeping you all comfy seats!

I have everything crossed for all of you this month and look forward to sharing fun stories of morning sickness and tender boobs with you all in the not so distant future Grin.

Oh - and great job on the dragon campaign, I bloody miss him!

Mam31 · 04/05/2014 22:46

Spinning I'm not doing reflexology, not doing much actually...have realised throwing money at it won't make it happen. fate and nature will take its course!!! I hope!!!

Kitty I'm good! How are you doing?

MissMrsMummy · 04/05/2014 22:37

Oh yay, congratulations for the bfps! Delighted to see the pics of lines!

Also EW those disgusting phrases are good!

Hope the campaign to get the dragon back is successful!

Viperama · 04/05/2014 22:18

Thanks Linda xx

KittyVonCatsington · 04/05/2014 22:17

Certainly had to pull my jumper down as far as it would go, viperama Wink.

AF like symptoms night before I'm expecting it: like my stomach is tightening (more so on the left side) Gah!

MissMrsMummy · 04/05/2014 22:15

Whaaaaaaat.... So many posts! I am lost! I will read back in a minute.

No bfp for me this time. AF is here.

The good news is that I have two shots at May so I am getting comfy on this bus - I'm here right 'til the end!

Viperama here's a link to some info about it. Hope the link works.

lindamagoo · 04/05/2014 21:54

Viperama we used them on cd 9, 11, 12, 14 and 16 and normal dtd on cd 7 + 13. Just in the evening and kept it in for 6 to 12 hrs, you can still do everything as normal with them in, bathroom, shower, bath and all that. Defo worth a try Smile

macmissy · 04/05/2014 21:50

well done ladies on your BFP's! sorry to those who have had that unwelcome visitor. she'll get the message - treat her like a door to door sales person. she'll give up knocking eventually?

I'm still in the 2ww and as ever... massively impatient. it's been ok this weekend as we've been away with OH and DSS. full packed, but now it's all I can think about again. Damn my mind!

Viperama · 04/05/2014 21:41

Omgosh kitty that is awful, I've had it happen after towelling down and that was bad enough! Did you manage to maintain cover??

Viperama · 04/05/2014 21:23

Bfn for me last night. Been travelling since this morning so couldn't update sooner. DP and I v sad... again!

But Linda he's already consented to the softcups + preseed.

At what point in your cycle did you start using and what time of day? I almost think we could do morning and eve in fertile days?

No AF yet, but I know it's coming Sad

Waffleyversatile · 04/05/2014 21:15

congrats mel

well I decided to poas again and got a bfn. af due either Thursday or Friday. still getting cramps so that's been a weel now. got my solid smiley face on thursday 25 april so how many days post ovulation am I?? im getting so impatient.

victoria401 · 04/05/2014 21:09

Evening ladies & congrats Mel!

Cd6 here and still have brown sludge :-( yuck. Feeling oddly fruity tho.

Decided not drinking caffeine or no where near enough as much wine. Really craving wine today!

bellaboo88 · 04/05/2014 21:09

Congrats Mel!! More positive pics & stats tomorrow please!!

Bored of joyriding now, I want to be a proper passenger!

Xx

RetroHippy · 04/05/2014 21:00

Oh, and Dragon Dragon Dragon

EnglishGirlAbroad · 04/05/2014 20:57

Hey ladies!!
Mother of all hangovers here!! Congratulations Mel!!Grin
Serenity - implantation bleeding usually occurs between 6-10dpo, 9 is most common.

10dpo here and tummy feels very weird. Prob just too much alcohol! Losing positivity by the hour

RetroHippy · 04/05/2014 20:56

Well, Lucas has arrived! At the expected time and of the required consistency no more custardy gussets here

Also feeling rather fruity this evening, drinking the Champers that was intended for my birthday... Wondering if it's best to wait till tomorrow to DTD though as I'm still a little tender in my special place Grin will just have to tell DH to make sure I'm really warmed up... Can I use that excuse every time? Grin

Champagne's bloody marvellous. As, apparently, is being 30. Been packing up the spare room full of my shit today, despite not having a moving date yet, I'm getting excited!

Spotti · 04/05/2014 20:52

Yay mel.

Lol at linda - I'm not sure explaining to the MN admin peeps how penis dragons make us pregnant would make them bring George back. Maybe if we just keep posting Dragon where we would have put George, maybe they'll see how much we used him and give him back...either that or they'll get fed up of us making up our own emoticon thingymabobs and just give in and let us keep him that's my plan anyway

Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon

Rawr!

rambini · 04/05/2014 20:41

So lovely to have such a fun, positive bus. Hopefully the relaxed nature of it will make us all get bfps Smile
I too have been thinking about choccy and hoping no news is good news.
In the rambini house we are still valiantly dtd, neither of us has keeled over from exhaustion just yet. Only a matter of time though! Still 3 weeks til af/bfp due if I have another 36 day cycle which feels like an eternity but am more than happy to ride the bus and wave pom poms for all my fellow dragons in the meantime Smile
