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!

oooooo so many of you ready to poas over the weekend! very exciting. Smile Good luck!!

I'm on cd 16 of a (normally) 28 day cycle. No idea when or if I ovulated as had no symptoms, but a positive opk at cd7. Hmm

Seem to getting ovulation pains today though and that horrible bloated IBS feeling. Confused Not great for dtd.
Only one thing for it.... curry. Grin

Spinning I've had it a few days but today was the worst, feel better this evening though. I do remember thinking I had a tummy bug before my BFP with ds1. Don't want to get my own hopes up, lol

spinningirl10 · 02/05/2014 18:45

Ooh Linda, don't want to get your hopes up but I had a dodgy tummy just before I got my bfp last time!

Victoria, the dragon pendants are pretty....still waiting for my fertility bracelet to arrive from USA!

victoria401 · 02/05/2014 18:40

Hi, just popping head in. I'm on cd4 so boring boring. Not even peeing on opk (bastardsticks-cant even say it out loud!). Af has gone already so that's good :-)

I'm toying with buying a dragon egg pendant for luck.... Have saved the page to my bookmarks. Trying to decide which colour would go with more outfits....

Good luck to all the pee-ers!

When did you start testing and get a line star? What dpo?

lindamagoo · 02/05/2014 18:27

Star I'm just feeling all out of sorts today, don't feel pregnant and don't feel like af is coming and spent most of the day in the bathroom with an upset tummy Hmm Feeling sorry for myself. Think I'll wait until atleast Monday before I do a FRER or digi

Starbright24 · 02/05/2014 18:25

Oh..and they have taken a week to get darker - still not that dark really but done frers and tesco tests also to be sure.

toots123 · 02/05/2014 18:20

Evening all!! Not much to report here, im 2dpo I think!
feeling very positive though and actually enjoying ttc these days. Been visiting a lot of friends and family who have babies and just cant wait for our bfp! I used to be scared to even hold a baby and now it would seem im first to agree to a cuddle!!

Last month was the first time I knew when I ovulated so hoping we have nailed it this month (thank god for cb digi opks!!)

Starbright24 · 02/05/2014 18:19

Linda - just looked back and seen your photos. That was what mine were like day before I got obvious line on frer. Grin

lindamagoo · 02/05/2014 18:16

Not feeling like af is on her evil way at all. If I get up to the unannounced flood in the morning I'm going to be gutted and drink a gallon of wine tomorrow night

RetroHippy · 02/05/2014 18:01

Gah, thanks to English I have now self-diagnosed thyroid issues Hmm my hair has been coming out in handfuls in the shower. I read up and there is a four month or so lag linking stressful events to hair loss... Evidently the boozy Christmas took it's toll Grin

I prefer to think it's a delayed reaction to coming off the pill.

Hi Chandlers- there were 13 BFPs on the April bus; a fab number but let's see if we can do more!

Been lovely to catch up on all your news on the way home from work-welcome to the new passengers, let's hope your journey is a short one Grin

Going out later for a lovely Friday meal. Debating on whether or not to have a drink as on CD32 but just don't feel pregnant. When I got my BFP, I was having pinching and twinges all over the place (I keep reminding myself that it wasn't viable so the SYMPTOMS might have been bad ones, but I just want to feel something, you know?!)

Friday Dragon love ladies!!!

Haha Mac, I've been poas like a crazy person for a few days now!!
13dpo so af due any day!

macmissy · 02/05/2014 16:58

Me too Han - I am far too impatient for it!

hanflan · 02/05/2014 16:42

spinning are you waiting until AF is officially late to poas?! I admire your strength, I would have pissed on a gazillion sticks by now haha!

lindamagoo · 02/05/2014 16:36

Your due af today aren't you?

spinningirl10 · 02/05/2014 16:23

It's so annoying isn't it Linda when you're body does something different to usual!!! I Haven't had any pre af feelings but don't feel pregnant either!!

lindamagoo · 02/05/2014 16:03

spinning I think we may have traded places! I usually have spotting for atleast a couple of days before af and so far nothing, af is due tomorrow

spinningirl10 · 02/05/2014 15:55

English, definitely get that checked out!

I'm spotting....never spot, usually af arrives full flow. Think she's just teasing me!!

macmissy · 02/05/2014 12:15

My doctor advised me to take Vit D with my Folic English so I would say so!

lindamagoo · 02/05/2014 12:13

Yeah English, the hair and crazy cycles are a sign of thyroid problems, maybe get your bloods done

EnglishGirlAbroad · 02/05/2014 12:11

I think when i move back I will be demanding every test available from the dr! Is vit d safe if by some miracle I do have a baby brewing??

macmissy · 02/05/2014 12:11

You're a font of knowledge Mrs! I know where to come to!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 02/05/2014 12:07

English step away from google, this instant! Shock would quite like to beat english's hairdresser up Have you had your thyroid checked ever. It's also a side effect of under activity. Which I also have.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 02/05/2014 12:04

You see I do know a lot about vitamin D deficiency. I went on roaccutane in my teens for acne, it drains all the natural vitamin d out of your body. Needless to say my hair fell out, broke and became very thin. And caused huge long term damage but vitamins are the key Wink
