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

I love all the username explanations Grin

Missmrs, yes I temp at 6am orally. Only my second month temping so still getting to grips with it and I often have a disturbed nights sleep.....I like seeing the pretty graph pattern thoughGrin

Boosk · 31/10/2014 20:36

Ah, that it explains it mamapa, you must be the first of us who's made it to November already. Smile

I love the fact that DD loves bananas, as they're so convenient to give in a toddler food emergency. But I sit there breathing through my mouth the whole time, especially when she squishes it everywhere! Ick! Can now actually peel and touch them which I never would have done before....

broodylicious · 31/10/2014 20:22

Yesssss orange!! You are so right!! Bananas are totally yuk. Ack, the smell, the texture... Just wrong. My dd adores them and eats hers watching in the night garden just before bath time, it's the only time I'd ever come close to them. Even got her to peel them now as I just can't touch them. Yak.

Orangeisthenewbanana · 31/10/2014 20:15

My username is from the TV show that everyone keeps telling me I should watch. And the fact that bananas should all be replaced by oranges as bananas are EVIL and I hate them!! Wanted something random, so there we are Halloween Hmm

I got babybombed too today. One of my NCT girlies. They've been trying on and off for just over a year so am chuffed for them. I've just hit that time where DD is nearly 2, and everyone is asking when/if we're having another, and a lot of the girls who I met in baby groups etc with DD are expecting again Halloween Envy. So far, I've managed to be quite blasé about it, hope that can continue if we're trying for a while!

Off to have a lovely pie and mash for tea, yum! Happy Halloween!

MaMaPo · 31/10/2014 20:14

Boosk, I'm in Australia. Smile

Only just realised you can put cbfm data into FF so I did and now my chart makes much more sense. FF has recalculated my ov date and now it's in line with the proper temp rise, making me 3dpo now. Pleased about that, it means our DTD was better timed!

broodylicious · 31/10/2014 20:09

Thanks ladies, I shall be dtd tonight on your good recommendations. Tbh, it's not exactly a hardship for me and dh anyway...WinkGrin

Congrats purple!!! Fab news. Enjoy your evening, even if it does mean no wineSmile

Loving the convo re usernames. Mine was the first thing that popped into my head when registering - maybe the Beyoncé song had something to do with it? Dunno, I've had a baby and mc since then! Frankly, it's a miracle I can remember my real name half the time!

Dozygirl · 31/10/2014 19:57

Ooh joey you're the same cd27 as me and I usually have 29 day cycles but I ov'd really late this month so think it's gonna be a long one. Only 6dpo at the mo.

I'm getting weird sharp twinges that come and go earher than the usual 'tightening' cramps so I'm hoping it is different from other months and means I'm pregnant haha. Trying not to read too much into it tho. Gonna enjoy my halloween party tomorrow as tho I'm not :) I can't wait to dress up as a pumpkin. Just about to start practising my pumpkin face paint so I can do it quickly tomorrow after work. I'm such a big kid heehee

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 31/10/2014 19:56

My name was, as you can guess, spur of the moment! I wanted to post to join in convo but couldn't think of anything so first thing that came into my head and ta da I have a ridiculous username! Oh well

Boosk · 31/10/2014 19:47

Where are you mamapo? It's still October here in the UK and it's only 7:45pm.Smile

MissMrsMummy · 31/10/2014 19:36

Yes do it broody you might still catch the egg while it's on its travels!

Think the eggs can survive about 24 hours after ov and sperm up to five days!

MissMrsMummy · 31/10/2014 19:31

spinning I am temping! It's so useful. I take mine orally at 6am every day. How are you doing it?

MaMaPo · 31/10/2014 19:26

Forgot to mentioned that I got baby bombed AGAIN yesterday. This time a friend who I haven't seen for years but bumped into last month. She's having twins. Cute announcement on Halloween with her wearing a skeleton tshirt that has two baby skeletons inside!

MaMaPo · 31/10/2014 19:24

Ok, I'm obviously first to arrive but Happy Pregvember everyone!!

It's 6.20am here and I've been woken up by a screeching child (who is course has fallen asleep again, leaving me wide awake) and some heavy rain. Just perfect for a long weekend at the beach. Hmm

Love the username stories! Mine has nothing to do with Mama, but I love to cook and eat Chinese food, especially Sichuan food, and mapo tofu is one of my favourite dishes. So it's a weird play on that! I wonder how many people think I like the teletubbies (there's a po on that, right? Never seen it)?

Who's testing today? Anyone?

spinningirl10 · 31/10/2014 19:23

Broody, yes dtd tonightGrin

Ooh Genni you sound very glamorous Grin do you do make up for people? I can't resist a lip gloss! Every time I walk past the make up counter I get drawn in by a new colour.....they all look the same onSmile

victoria401 · 31/10/2014 19:21

Well I feel like a right div with my name! Didn't realise when I joined it was all anonymous! I was on netmums where you use your real name and location etc but my friend said I must come over to mumsnet as it was far better and never looked back!

Dh came home with some chocs for me :-D worryingly I've had some ov type pains today although no pos opk or ewcm and its early for me to ov. I hope its not as we are screwed! Again!

tootssw17 · 31/10/2014 19:09

Booosk always worth a dtd imho!

Boosk · 31/10/2014 18:58

Do it broody if you can. It won't do any of harm Smile

Boosk · 31/10/2014 18:56

Evening ladies, I've not been very good at keeping up the last couple of days but enjoying the username chat. Mine is a play on a family nickname.

treacle we are not cycle twins at all. I skipped a day when I was counting so am only cd8 today with af/bfp due on 21st.

So who is going to be first to test? Grin

broodylicious · 31/10/2014 18:55

I've an ov question too ladies. I tested yday and got that fairly strong line I shared with you. However, we didn't dtd last night as we both had proper stinking headaches and needed to rest. We had dtd on tues and wed though. Today, I only got a faint line on the opk, so assuming I must have ov'd yday? Although I do have cm and I couldn't hold on to my wee for the advised four hours and had had a couple of drinks.... so it could've been diluted? Worth dtd tonight ladies?

Will do a check back now over today's posts so I don't look like a complete mememe person!Blush

gennibugs · 31/10/2014 18:51

spinning we will have to become the temping gurus! Grin that's annoying re the gym- I'm just heading there now. Rock n roll Friday night haha.

Just spent a very enjoyable hour browsing in boots buying new make up for my kit. I only popped in to buy some false lashes for a wedding I'm doing tomorrow!!! I'm such a make up and beauty geek, it's put me in such a good mood! I can't wait to try it all out!!

Sorry that's really off topic - you can tell how excited I am Grin

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 31/10/2014 18:44

Thanks for reassurance sunbathing! Guess will proba ov overnight then so fx as we have dtd! Think will cout tww from tomorrow then which puts test day at 14 as first predicted lol. I am definitely temping next month!
