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

Hi everyone, welcome to all the new passengers!

Lp, thank you Smile I really think it is going to happen in the next few months. Wow, time flies! Not long until your scan, you must be so excited x x

MrsG, I bought some Omega 3 supplements and they are so big I am scared to take them in case I choke! Great news about your appointment this morning, you must be feeling so relieved.

Congratulations Seafoam!! Great news. Will put you on the stats as a November BFP even though we’ve not left yet- hopefully it proves this bus will be the luckiest one yet.

Secret, so sorry to hear about your relationship problems, hopefully there is an innocent explanation. Maybe he is planning a surprise for you and needed to get rid of you temporarily to arrange something.

Pikz- cycle 11 here too, sucks! It will happen though so hang in there.

Dozy, I said the same to my DH about keeping his swimmers fresh. I think it’s supposed to be every 10 days or something and after DTD loads during ov then not wanting to DTD when AF is here we don’t DTD for a few weeks...

We are very much once or twice a week people on the whole so it is hard to DTD lots during ov. It’s our wedding anniversary at the beginning of Nov, ov time will be next weekend ish so planning 4 nights of special meals based on places we have visited. Putting the emphasis on our relationship this month rather than TTC – though it is obviously very much still on my mind!

Will post updated stats below, just over two weeks until we set off!

Despite all the symptoms I've been having, it appears A chuffing F has other ideas so I'm collecting my ticket for this bus, if that's ok. I need wine and I need it now. And Brie. And shed loads of shitty food.

Oh hello all! Xxx

TheProofIsInThePudding · 16/10/2014 18:42

Excellent news MrsG! My DH also found out some very good news on the job front today, so all the worrying last night was for nothing!

Thepurplegiraffe · 16/10/2014 17:30

Great news Ginger, great that everything is coming together.

StowFrenchy · 16/10/2014 15:49

Great news Ginger!!

xBlueberry88x · 16/10/2014 15:18

Thats good news Ginger fx for a bfp now!!

MrsGingerbread · 16/10/2014 15:15

Hello!

I just wanted to share that my appointment this morning went well. The consultant is happy that all of the cancerous cells have been removed and that there are nice healthy margins around it. So that's great.

So that's my mole sorted, dh's job sorted. Now just need to sort out this ttc thing and we're all set! :)

StowFrenchy · 16/10/2014 14:06

Thanks guys!!!

xBlueberry88x · 16/10/2014 13:21

Pikz sorry to see you over here!!

Stow I just buy the cheap ones of amazon they seem to do the job and they are mega cheap so you can poas as much as you like lol

Dozygirl · 16/10/2014 12:14

Think most ppl use clear blue the ones that give flashing smileys. I just use Internet cheapy ones. They work fine for me and it's easy to tell when it's a positive but it doesn't work for everyone. Some use a mixture of both because clear blue use fmu and cheapys are during 10-8 so u can do three a day if u wanted Wink

StowFrenchy · 16/10/2014 11:22

Hi guys! Can you pls give me advice on the best OPK? Am gonna pop to the shops at lunch time but not sure which brand to get!! Thanks! Smile

Pikz · 16/10/2014 06:39

Definitely Af here so

Pikz ttc#2 cycle 11 bfp due 15th nov

TheProofIsInThePudding · 16/10/2014 00:22

Congratulations seafoam!

secret I think you need to talk things through with your OH. I hope everything works out ok in the end for you.

Dozy I would imagine that salivary sperm are better than no sperm at all! So do whatever you need to do!

Hello Coffee and Sakura!

DH is going through some tricky work situations / decisions atm and was being particularly pessimistic this evening, so it's a good job AF is here and we don't need to DTD. He was in a mood where nothing I suggested helped, I get a bit fed up when he's like that, but he (and I, actually) suffers from depression and it's just one of those things. I'm hoping that things will have resolved themselves in a couple of weeks to give us the best chance of getting a BFP.

Sakura03 · 15/10/2014 22:51

Hello all, I'm new here and I'd like to join you on the bus. AF arrived this morning so CD1 here, we've had a month's break as I discovered that I wasn't immune to Rubella and had the jab on 24 September, the nurse told me that we had to wait one month before ttc, so I'm hoping for a BFP around 12 Nov! Came off the pill back in January after taking it for about 12 years. My cycles are very regular (28 days) and I'm taking pregnacare.

Age: 36, ttc#1

secretreveleater · 15/10/2014 21:25

Sorry for bringing the thread down ladies. I have posted for advice in a more appropriate place now.

I'm obviously hopping off the ttc bus.

Very best of luck to all you wonderful ladies. You all truly deserve you bfps.

xBlueberry88x · 15/10/2014 21:12

Oh secret im sorry i agree with the picture taking but you definitely need to confront him!!

Welcome coffee

MrsGingerbread · 15/10/2014 20:26

Oh no secret so sorry to read this.

Remember that texts can often be read a lot of different ways, and tones can sometimes be hard to get right or misunderstand.
I think taking a photo of them is a great idea. Take care of yourself xx

Orangeisthenewbanana · 15/10/2014 20:21

Sorry, confront him

Orangeisthenewbanana · 15/10/2014 20:20

Oh secret, that's awful! What a total arse Angry. Maybe post in relationships? There are some lovely ladies over there who will give you great advice I'm sure. Maybe take photos of the messages though in case he deletes them later and you want to confront in about it? Thanks

CoffeeOne · 15/10/2014 20:15

Hello all, hoping onto my 4th bus.

AF arrived today so CD1 here. Having a little pity party which hopefully I'll be over tomorrow.

CoffeeOne, 31, ttc #2, cycle #4, bfp due 19th November.

secretreveleater · 15/10/2014 19:48

Ugh so I've just looked in OH's texts to find a message about a school trip I sent him and stumbled across some messages to another woman that were definitely over friendly and made me feel very uncomfortable. He even said in one that he would 'get rid' of me! I feel so embarrassed and hurt. I haven't told him I saw them. I don't know what to do.....we are supposed to be ttc and he does this.
Sorry I've gone so off topic but I needed to vent where no one knows us.
What do I do now?

MrsGingerbread · 15/10/2014 17:37

Congratulations seafoam

I am dh-less tonight. So I am planning the best girly night in ever, including a yummy dinner, Cake and the second Pirates of the Caribbean film. :D

Dozygirl · 15/10/2014 17:24

Phew I have a second line on my opk again today. It's still a negative but I do like seeing two lines seeing as I don't get them on hpt. I literally cannot wait till that day comes.

Let's hope I can start dtd tonight to get in the swing of things. I can use saliva this time anyway as I'm not fertile heehee.

xBlueberry88x · 15/10/2014 16:35

Congrats Seafoam its not even November yet lol!!

Dozy Id just rather not risk it as soon as I found out about it we avoided saliva during the fertile week. Everything ive read says its a big no no.

Jessica Epo seems to be working with me only taking it to counteract the clomid.

Pikz · 15/10/2014 16:17

Pink spotting just started so assuming I'm off the October bus Hmm

Cycle 11 here so time for a doctors visit and the reality of a lovely baby just happening naturally second time around just not being true.
