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

Morning all! Bit bleary eyed as DD was up half the night. Don't really mind as usually we're very lucky with her sleep but it definitely brought back the newborn memories what are we thinking starting all that malarkey again?! Grin

Exciting first flashy smiley on CB this morning!! At a Christening later, so will have to come up with a way to sneak off to do my IC this afternoon! Plan to dtd tonight as well. Have a lovely day all!

Boosk · 26/10/2014 07:13

Goodness me it's busy here now. Only a few more days to go before the first of us get to test! Smile

Cd3 for me and now waiting for af to eff off. babymad bbt and 50 ic opks on order for this cycle.

How is everyone this morning?

crispiecrunchie · 26/10/2014 06:56

Hello all. Can I hop on?? Cd2 for me today so I should just about have time for a November bfp. Ttc#2 but I'm 41 so every cycle seems very important. Ill use my last box of cb opks but otherwise just lots of dtd action....

Good luck everyone!

'Think' I had ov pains earlier but it's so hard to tell. There's so many other things near to your uterus that can cause pains lol. Deed done and dusted anyway so fx I've timed it right. Do u have long cycles coffee?

CoffeeOne · 25/10/2014 23:20

Hello all, just having a catch up now!

ohlordy sorry about your CP. Fingers crossed for this month for you x

chandlers so sorry you've had to depart, glad to hear you have a plan and good luck!

Terry I would do the run. I was about 7dpo with DS when I went to a festival. I was squished in crowds, running, dancing all sorts. I had no idea I was pregnant (so had a few cheeky drinks too eek) but all was well in the end :)

Lussluc1985 congratulations!

knitted I get very strong ovulation pains too. I assume I ovulate that day or the day after. AF always arrives 14 days later.

Blueberry sorry you had a rotten day, what an ass that guy was.

spinning congrats on your second interview, sorry about your row though!

Wow, busy bus!

I'm on CD11 and won't be ovulating for another 10 days or so. I'm bored and I just want to be pregnant already. Huff. Grin

Thanks ladies im ok i came home and snuggled on the sofa for a few hours and then got dolled up for a party. had a few drinks was good to relax.

still getting weird 'symptoms' but i think its the clomid rather than pg symptoms at 5dpo.

spinning sorry your fighting with dp hopefully you make up tomorrow.
Not going to report him but he was an asshole so embarrassed I cried so much lol

orange i get a gradual darkening line over a few days on opks

hope everyone is having a gd evening!

Dozygirl · 25/10/2014 21:22

Thanks sunbathing I seem to have similar opks as u, just need to dtd as much as u lol. Just feeling frustrated about yesterday's lack of dtd if today is the day I'm ovulating but will try one last time tonight even if it means staying up late.

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 25/10/2014 21:01

orange I use IC OPKs and over last 3 days been gradually getting darker, but not quite as strong as the control yet. Was same lat month but then went to stark white negative day after I ov'd

Quietlyhopeful81 · 25/10/2014 20:49

Spinning sorry to hear about your falling out with your OH. I'm with the others on the make up dtd!

Quietlyhopeful81 · 25/10/2014 20:42

Wow Blueberry that totally sucks about the couple at work. I really hope your day got better.

Dozy I am also emotional generally and will cry at anything at the best of times. If its sad, I cry. If it's happy, I cry.

Ninjabeer being a goddess of positivity sounds good. I am going to emulate you there and also attempt to be one. I'll let you know how that turns out Smile

Toothache my best friend has also just told me she is pregnant. They started trying the same time we did (although she doesn't know that) and like you, I am very happy for her but also a little envious.

Frolicacid · 25/10/2014 20:07

Evening ladies! I'm quietly mumsnet ing while our 18 month old nephew is snoring in the travel cot next to our bed. He is saying tonight and his big sister has been here since thursday. They are adorable and are really highlighting how much we'd love our own family.

spinning, make-up sex is often worth the argument IMO Wink

orange, I think my opk's do get gradually darker in the few days leading up to ovulation.

I hope everyone else is having a lovely weekend. Sad to see more names over from pregoween, but happy to be on the bus with all your support and wisdom.

We've not managed to dtd yet this cycle due to our little house guests. I've started the soy, so feel like I'm doing something. My fertile window isn't due for a good week yet.

Orangeisthenewbanana · 25/10/2014 19:59

Thanks ladies! The line definitely isn't as dark as the control, and am still getting negatives on the CB dual, so will just wait and see I guess!

Lol mine are the same as sunbathing clearly. Sunbathing how often did u dtd over the positive days this month that u got your bfp?

Dozygirl · 25/10/2014 19:31

Mine vary in darkness leading up to it, not generally a pattern in them when they are negative, they go stronger to less stronger. On the day of my first positive though I did one around 12 that was almost positive then later at four it was positive and the following two days they were positive. I reckon tomorrow's will be negative now. Hope that helps.

Orangeisthenewbanana · 25/10/2014 18:57

Quick question please ladies. If you use IC opk's, do you tend to see a gradually darkening line for a few days before a positive, or does it go straight to a fully dark positive line? Have a definitely darker line tonight, but not yet a positive. Hopefully something is happening! Smile

Dozygirl · 25/10/2014 17:52

Oh no spinning, it's horrible falling out. Good ascice from want there tho. See how he feels of u suggest that to him.

Cariad2014 · 25/10/2014 17:35

Spinning - I'm with Wanttobe on this front - this definitely calls for some make-up dtd. Also, I seem to recall that something similar happened to MrsE just before her BFP so it might be a good sign!

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 25/10/2014 17:34

Hmmm thats a tricky one. If you go to the interview though it doesnt guarantee you will be offered it, or that you will take it if you. If you are looking for a new job it could still be treated as interview experience? :)

spinningirl10 · 25/10/2014 17:32

Maybe wanttobe, I think it's all about the job, I don't think he wants me to do it :( I've tried to talk to him about it but he's made an argument out of something totally different, men heh!!!

Cariad2014 · 25/10/2014 17:31

Dozy - I really wouldn't give up hope. As long as you've managed to dtd once in your fertile window, you're in with a shot. Ironically, the two cycles I've managed a BFP, we dtd far less than usual (and only on one day before my first BFP in June) so much so that I'd pretty much given hope in both cycles before the 2ww commenced.

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 25/10/2014 17:30

Oh no spinning! Maybe good excuse for make-up dtd tomorrow? ;)
