I know its waaay early for a November bus to set off but AF arrived today kicking me off the September bus and with DH away next month the October bus is not an option. Anyone fancy joining me in the long wait? I don't expect much action on this thread for a few weeks but it would be nice to have some company. My stats are below:

iamevan, 35, TTC#2, cycle 6, BFP due 7th November

Thanks for that bovny although slightly depressing seeing that it's generally less than 50% that get bfps!! The odds seem so against us :(

spinningirl10 · 29/10/2014 21:08

Bovny, ooh I love the stats, thank you for taking the time to work it out, we are definitely due a good monthGrin

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 29/10/2014 21:06

Feeling positive for this month so far! Throw in another dtd on Friday (DH out tomorrow night) then that's me done for the month I think. Will have give. It our beat shot! Here's hoping for lots of bfps, at least more than 25% success rate his month!

Aprilray · 29/10/2014 21:02

Bovney, love the fact you've taken the time to do that. Come on Pregvember!!

Apprentice time Grin

Evening all!
Blueberry whoop whoop for the ovulation! Hope the 2ww goes quickly and you have some distractions lined up.

I'm trying to take this cycle v chilled, no real tracking or temping or OPKing (considering it's v unlikely to be ovulating until I start clomid next cycle). However we are plodding on with DTD EOD throughout my 45 day cycle, prob about 10 DTDs to go :)

So I definitely think the buses are due a brilliant month. Sorry for being ridiculous and using my time for crazy things, but check these stats out from the last 4 buses (give it take a BFP or two). We are WELL Overdue a bumper month!!

Oct 14 12 BFPs, 41 BFNs. BFPs=22%
Sep 14 19 BFPs, 60 BFNs. BFPs = 24%
Aug14 21 BFPs, 37 BFNs. BFPs=28%
Jul 14 21 BFPs, 31 BFPs. BFPs=40%

I'd love twins too! And I guess with us having fertility treatment we are in with a chance! Me and dh only ever wanted one child but we both would love 2 at once! If that makes sense!

Cd10 today and started the opks. Extremely faint line. Gonna jump dh later to start stocking up. Usually ov between cd14 and cd16 but have to be prepared!

broodylicious · 29/10/2014 19:49

Gosh, triplets! The very thought of it strikes fear into me! As you say mrse, no probs feeding twins - although getting a tandem latch will no doubt be an art and I'd definitely not be able to go and open the door to sign for a parcel while feeding in progress (yes I did that more than once!) - but throw a third into the mix?! Yikes! I'd still have a go at breastfeeding but it'd be a labour of love, that's for sure!

Aaah I love you people!! I just can't waffle/daydream out loud like this in RL!

toothachereturns · 29/10/2014 19:01

Fabulous eggy news blueberry !!! I hope your DP has braced himself. Grin

CD 13 here.... dtd yesterday and will try again tomorrow morning (we're morning people... can't be arsed dtd at night lol). Here comes to 2 week wait.

I ovulated late last month on cd15/16 which probably explains the 31 day cycle! I'm getting ov pains today so I may be revising my BFP date. Smile

Haven't had a chance to read thru every post. It moves so fast when I'm at work all day! Wishing you all well.Thanks

Kilicat · 29/10/2014 18:34

Feeding triplets must be a nightmare!! Haha, we're definitely not designed to feed three babies.

xBlueberry88x · 29/10/2014 17:58

kili dont get my hopes up lol...the symptoms could also be the clomid working but id prefer being pg lol

lol mrse id feel sorry for a third baby !

Dozygirl · 29/10/2014 17:53

Yey want I told u the positive would come. I think u can carry on looking at the line on opks anyway so don't worry about that. I find my positives take 30 mins to develop and that's what the instructions said. How long after 30 mins did u look? Plus I find even days later they stay the same colour.

Congrats for the BFP. Starting our run of bfps in a great way Halloween Grin

Love the pumpkin spinning.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 29/10/2014 17:41

You see I can see how twins would work because let's face it you have 2 boobs, but it could get confusing with triplets! Grin

Kilicat · 29/10/2014 17:32

Cariad, hope you feel better soon - that sounds miserable.

Blueberry, your symptoms sound very similar to mine so really hoping that it's a BFP. I've definitely slept really badly for the last week now. Is that one of the 'official' symptoms of early pregnancy? No idea but your symptoms seem like they could well signal a BFP on the way. Hoping the next few days don't go too slowly for you!

Also love the thought of twins - bet it's extremely hard work. DH is also thinking that two for the price of one and we have a family that's complete! Actually, he'd love triplets but thankfully they're pretty rare!!

xBlueberry88x · 29/10/2014 17:31

want after the positive opk you might not ovulate for a day or to id dtd tomorrow aswell!

spinning if I manage it I'll put a pic up lol

Mumwannabe82 · 29/10/2014 17:19

Oh congrats want and broody on your positive opk, only just seen the posts lol xx always a good step in the right direction!! Xx

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 29/10/2014 17:14

broody that's a brill line, probably get a strong positive tomorrow! That almost looks positive now! After tonight think we may have to give it a rest til after the weekend, all this dtd is tiring!

Mumwannabe82 · 29/10/2014 17:14

Happy Wednesday everyone! Many congrats kilikat, first BFP on this bus (might be early but we like good news on here Smile) XXX
Yay to blueberry for ovulating XXX always takes the weight off when you know you have XXX
So..... Cd11 today, monday I had a bit of spotting so decided to do a opk which was positive (earlier than last month), but my temp hasn't risen yet, has anyone took a little while to get their rise when they know they definitely ovulated? I can only guess really that I ovulated yesterday if I did but worried the temp won't go up now Confused

spinningirl10 · 29/10/2014 17:13

Want, yay for the second lineGrin

Knitted, how lovely to have twins, 3 is such a lovely age, I bet they get into all sorts of mischief!

spinningirl10 · 29/10/2014 17:09

Blueberry, a headless horsemen!!! Sounds fab, deffo want pics of that pleaseGrin

broodylicious · 29/10/2014 16:48

Great line want!! Let's hope in two weeks there's two just as clear on a hpt for you :)

I'm hoping my egg shan't be far behind yours as I got this line today. Not quite a positive but definitely going the right way!

Gosh, ladies, have I sparked a debate about twins or what?! Haha! One is definitely hard work orange, you are not wrong - my dd is a real 2y 7m handful!

November bus opening doors- all aboard for BFPs!!!
knittedmittens · 29/10/2014 16:38

I have Twins :)

One girl, one boy aged 3. The were conceived on cycle 10. My Dad's a twin, so I'm assuming I release two eggs as an inherited fault!

Blooming hard work but also totally amazing. Would quite like just the one this time though :)

Orangeisthenewbanana · 29/10/2014 16:19

Hi all!

Congrats kili, fantastic way to send off the November bus Grin

Getting over a cold here too, but fortunately don't feel too rough now. All this talk about twins, I can quite happily say this time round I'd prefer not! Always thought twins would be great, then I had one baby and one at a time is more than enough! My DB and SIL have just had twins (with a 2.5 year old DS) already and it has been interesting for them to say the least Hmm One little bean for me is quite ample!

Treaclepie19 · 29/10/2014 16:08

Yay want! :)
Get dtd!

tootssw17 · 29/10/2014 15:58

What a fab second line want
Beautiful line.
Wow! Halloween Grin loving the line!

Good luck to your dtd ! ( am taking any positive poas regardless of stick as a reason to party!)

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 29/10/2014 15:57

Sorry for the me me me posts, I was too excited and had no one to share it with!
