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 think I was 5dpo yesterday and I got a sudden pinch in my lower left abdomen - it was a shock and took my breath away a little. It only lasted a couple of seconds though.

Has anyone else had this?

MissMrsMummy · 31/10/2014 12:24

Ooh congrats purple and hi spinning our bfps are due on the same day! Fx

MissMrsMummy · 31/10/2014 12:12

Hi all

I am back after a few months' break from TTC! Lovely to see some familiar faces but sorry you are still on the buses... Let's hope November is full of bfps!

Stats:

MissMrsMummy, age 30, TTC #1, cycle 1, bfp due 18th Nov.

spinningirl10 · 31/10/2014 12:08

Victoria, I agree, maybe try doggy buy as you haven't got your positive there's still time.

Lordy, I wonder about some usernames, I assume sunbathingcat was named after her catGrin and we know about Englishgirl. Not sure about yoursGrin and I think blueberry because she likes blueberries. Kitty is named after her cats.

Blue500 · 31/10/2014 11:47

Lol OhLordy nope no fiat500 here! No idea where the name came from tbh. Totally random.
Victoria I feel your pain, but like you said you haven't peeked with opk yet so you still have lots of chances yet. I agree with MrsE and doggie style - I had a stinking cold around ov and we only did it once. Doggie style was the only way I could get dh anywhere near me with all my germs! :)

MrsExtraOrdinary · 31/10/2014 11:36

It's so hard victoria. Could you offer dh a quickie? I gave up on the romance of it and just bent over doggie style and let him get on with it as quick as possible. Tbh the month I got pg was the only month I tried this. But super quick seemed to work a treat! Wink

ohlordyplordy · 31/10/2014 11:27

Morning ladies.
Wow purple, congratulations, wishing your a happy pregnancy.
Sorry about the bfn blue500 but it may still be too early. Implantation can take place as late as 12dpo plus some tests are more sensitive than others. btw, do you drive a blue fiat 500, as that's the image I get when I read your name! Does anyone else visualise mners based on their names? or is it just me lol.
Cd 11 here, usually ov cd 13/4 so we have been dtd since cd8. Taken a day off work, been into town to do our food shop and need to do some diy this afternoon. Just caught up with peaky blinders on iplayer.... cillian murphy is lovely Grin

victoria401 · 31/10/2014 10:57

Really cross with dh :-( we dtd cd8, didn't cd10 as I was out with a friend til late so last night cd11 I was meant to jump him. Rejected. Too tired and ill (he's on antibiotics for his chest), plus he hadn't even cleaned his teeth or showered so I didn't want to press the matter. So Cd12 today, his tasks before bedtime.... Mow the lawn, have a shower, shag me! Not got ewcm yet and only really faint opk so not the end of the world but I wanted to stay stocked up this month! Just so I know we did everything we could before starting fertility treatment :-( sent me a message "love you" just now coz he knows I'm cross. Grrrrr not forgiven. Plus I'm worried about how the steroids and antibiotics are going to affect his sperm for a few months time when we have treatment. We might have to delay it yet again! Scream!

Congrats purple x

StowFrenchy · 31/10/2014 10:55

Hey want sorry to be ignorant - what does cm means? I'm interested in understanding the signs of ovulation better - does it tell you that your fertile window is over? Thanks!! :)

Blue500 · 31/10/2014 10:50

Congrats Purple, wonderful news.
Proof loving the idea about spooky films tonight.

I'm 10dpo and had bfn this morning, maybe too early to tell but I'm convinced it hasn't worked this month. Yet despite this it totally bummed me out this morning - I'm only on cycle # 2 but I don't know how you ladies pick yourselves up each month that have been ttc for months and months.

Trying to be positive about next cycle and at least I get one more shot b4 Xmas.

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 31/10/2014 10:21

Too tired to dtd last night and woken up to creamy cm. Fertile window over, let the tww commence..

N1kkiL · 31/10/2014 10:19

Hi all,

Hoping I can join the bus? As yet I'm not 100% sure I've OV'd since coming off BC I'm August but FF has said I OV'd last Friday & AF due November 8th (Ovia says it's given up on me until I have AF or BFP haha). I didn't use OPKs last week because I was going to wait it out but helpfully we DTD 4 days before the 'ov' date so could be still in.

Stats: 26, TTC #1, Cycle possibly 1 & on CD65!

Good luck to all x

Quietlyhopeful81 · 31/10/2014 10:15

Haha toots sheepishly I have to admit to doing the same last night. I'm having a minor stress this week because after dtd on Monday (CD10) circumstances beyond our control Meant we didn't dtd again til last night (cd 13). I don't temp but have a 28 day cycle so I'm hoping the two day enforced break doesn't affect our chances too much .

tootssw17 · 31/10/2014 09:47

Stupid phone predictive text no NGOs in this board just bfps !

StowFrenchy · 31/10/2014 09:46

Hahahaha toots, I did the same thing too! Love it. Yep, up for a 2ww club as last cycle I went slightly bonkers so probably could do with sisterly support! :)

tootssw17 · 31/10/2014 09:39

Woo awwwww! Good purple ! Mega congrats! Kick start this bus! Vroom vroom! Beep beep! Ding ding!

There are alot of us expecting NGOs around the 12th to 15th nov ... 2ww club for mid nov? I am ignoring the flashing smiley never turning static on my cbopk.

I totally gave in and pretended to be a upside down limpet- yup pillow under bum and legs in the air-actually did pilates hip tilts and found it very pleasant to have time to flatten my spine - yes ladies - my dignity flew out the window.

StowFrenchy · 31/10/2014 09:23

Congrats Purple!!!!!
Thanks for the stats April and lucie - my BFP is now planned for 14th of Nov - lots of us in that club which is great!!! Hopefully some of you can attempt to stop me from testing everyday for the last week of my cycle! ;.)

lucieloos · 31/10/2014 09:10

April has done most of the stats so far this month Genni I am just helping out Smile She has done a really good job as it's a huge bus this month!

flowerbombVR · 31/10/2014 09:08

Congratulations Purple :)

gennibugs · 31/10/2014 09:06

lucieloos · 31/10/2014 08:58

Quietlyhopeful81 · 31/10/2014 08:43

Congratulations, Purple!

EnglishGirlsReturned · 31/10/2014 08:30

Congrats Purple Smile

TheProofIsInThePudding · 31/10/2014 08:27

Thanks for the advice Sunbathing I'm feeling more positive today (geddit? Grin).

Congratulations purple!

I did a crazy long day at work earlier in the week, so I'm just going to do a half day today and spend the afternoon baking Halloween cupcakes. I've also found a couple of children's not actually scary Halloween films to watch with DH tonight. Happy Spooky Friday, everyone!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 31/10/2014 08:06

Congratulations purple Thanks brilliant News before the bus has even set off.
