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!

Pat me on the back guys-finally finished all my GCSE and A Level paperwork, day before the deadline as well Grin

Feel like having a beer to celebrate but hesitant: BFN on CD29 (Wed) and AF a no show. Might just have a tipple Wink

Loving the necklace, kurama a so pretty!!!! Hope it brings you lots of Dragon luck!!

Yessss I am! Just about to head back onto delivery suite for a week next week and then onto community for 8 weeks the week after aaaah!!

gennibugs · 01/05/2014 18:37

hi fleur and welcome.
you must be broody with all those gorgeous bundles of joy you get to see!

gennibugs · 01/05/2014 18:37

I don't say anything to DH about symptom spotting - he thinks I'm obsessed anyway and that my obsessiveness is causing stress which in turn is not helping

so I'm acting totally nonchalent and save my craziness for you lovely ladies!

Fleurlur · 01/05/2014 18:23

Can I join? I'm officially on my first TTC cycle after coming off the implant! CD1 of cycle #1 with a BFP due 22nd may although my app is going off the last cycle which was 21 days long! Might actually be due the week after!
I'm 23, my SO is 25 and I'm a student midwife which makes being broody 10x worse!!!!!

lindamagoo · 01/05/2014 18:07

It's ok, after days of being without google it's now working again so I was able to look it up Smile

lindamagoo · 01/05/2014 18:01

Ok so I have yet another question! Sorry Smile But I was just wondering if you have a luteal phase of say 14 days does that mean af starts on day 14 or is it the following day?

lindamagoo · 01/05/2014 17:54

My oh just tells me to let him know when he's to be a part of it and if it worked or not. Symptom spotting is kept between myself and you wonderful ladies Smile Think I drove him insane when ttc ds 2 for a year, he's glad I've got all of you this time Smile

Stepawayfromthezebras · 01/05/2014 17:52

And I love the fact he asks you if you'e pregnant :) Like you'd find out and forget to tell him - bless!

gennibugs · 01/05/2014 17:52

I second the probiotic tablets. I've been taking them everyday and they seem to be preventing - I used to get an attack all the time in the week prior to AF.

Stepawayfromthezebras · 01/05/2014 17:50

I don't share with DP but he knows when AF is here IYSWIM. I doubt he has any clue as to how that equates to when we need to DTD so I just let him know when he needs to step up :)

EnglishGirlAbroad · 01/05/2014 17:50

Brummie - I used evening primrose oil last cycle and it really helped. Just until ov.
I try to keep my crazy away from DH, especially since the mc. He was beginning to get worries that I was too obsessed! So it my (and yours) secret. I just tel him when AF arrives and when he needs to make himself useful Wink

spinningirl10 · 01/05/2014 17:35

Does anyone else not share symptom spotting and poas with their other half? My dp usually asks at some point in my cycle if I'm pregnant!! He doesn't really have any clue when I would get a bfp/af during the cycle..... I just tell him when af arrives.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 01/05/2014 16:56

Vital word missing (stupid gynea consultant) whoops!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 01/05/2014 16:55

Retro you can get pro biotic tablets that will cleanse. I used to guarantee to get it on run up to period. A flood and thrush! Not Nice! Poor you! Cotton knickers and as my stupid insulting advised to iron your gusset! Grin

MrBsMrsB · 01/05/2014 16:53

Hi Ladies,

2 x April cycles and no BFP so I'm hitching a ride with all you beautiful people.

MrBsMrsB TTC#1 Cycle 6 BFP due 20th May

RetroHippy · 01/05/2014 16:33

I think I'm getting thrush (tmi, sorry!) gearing up for marathon week and I'm getting that unpleasant feeling Angry

Reckon I can fend it off with yakult? There's no way I'm missing this month!

NewlymrsB · 01/05/2014 16:13

TTC actually turns us ladies crazy! I'm on crotch watch and could be until Monday! Agh won't mind if AF never shows but knowing my luck she will appear Monday and drag it out!!

Anyone else waiting for her to show?

TinyPawz · 01/05/2014 16:08

ok so I was planning on taking things ever so easy and relaxed as much as possible but reading you all with opk and symptom checking I fear my DP will lock me in the cupboard under the stairs......I have become quite hysterical and only on cd 10!!! Going to be a loooooooooooong month for us both

hanflan · 01/05/2014 16:05

Ooooh I shall have a gander, thanks!

kurama · 01/05/2014 16:00

hanflan I think thats what its suppost to be! got it feom a website called etsy... they had so many different colours. I think march or april lady gave the link to hers which was solid blue? its extra for a chain tho. [rawr] Grin I love it x

lindamagoo · 01/05/2014 15:52

Kurama that is so nice Smile

hanflan · 01/05/2014 15:22

Kurama that is STUNNING! Ahhhhh I want one! Looks like the dragon eggs in Game of Thrones Dragon

RetroHippy · 01/05/2014 15:15

kurama, that's really pretty Dragon Dragon Dragon

RetroHippy · 01/05/2014 15:14

spotti, your day has been way more productive than mine, and mine was meant to be used for work (PPA).

So far I have:
got up at 10am.
not walked the dog.
Been erranding and spent too much.
Paid in some cheques.
Vacced
Put the dishwasher on
Put some laundry in a basket.

I should have been planning reading for the next three weeks, sorting next week's maths lessons and writing my application for the job I'm already doing and apparently aren't very good at which is due in tomorrow.

Nowt like procrastination hey?
