Hi ninja how you doing? Ready for the next bus??

Knitfast sorry AF arrived. Like you say- first month! So fingers crossed next one is the one!!!

Cariad hi! Good luck with the dtd!! February is THE MONTH!!!!

Spinning fingers tightly crossed for you!!!!! Good news temps still high!

Luckynumber3 wow! Congratulations! That is amazing news but I'm so so sorry about whatsapp group!! If you don't laugh then what can you do eh! At least u now have everyone's support early on, that's some story! I often think that about whatsapp etc.. Technology eh!! Anyway, either way it's fantastic news and wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months!

Purdey you hanging in there love?! Sending Cake to share with you!!

Sparkly123 · 23/01/2015 13:29

mumwannabe Ahhh!! Can't believe I missed that! Huge congrats that's wonderful news!!! Did you do your stats and I missed then?

pulpi so sorry to hear you got bfn sending Flowers

blimey sorry about AF arriving, what a time you have had!!! In reference to the eod or every day... Have you heard of smep plan? That's what we followed last month when I had a BFP.. I know that it didn't end well for us but we intend to follow the same procedure again as every other month was a bfn that we didn't so maybe it would be successful for you?

letsdothisthing thanks so much for your story and words. You are right it's do confusing! I was at gp today and she said pregnancy test negative but won't do bloods to check hcg as it's not "routine". She tried to put me off trying again saying wait a few months..! Eh.. That feels like an eternity!! I want to now! I feel clearer on that now for some reason, I'm just confused as to when to try as intense bleeding stopped now I'm having brownish discharge/blood. Maybe I should start OPKs? I'm a bit worried about causing any infection or damage etc by trying only a week after the mc that probably sounds crazy but I have no idea about all this!! I really really really hope this is your BFP month I have everything crossed for you!!! Great news on higher temps!!

Luckynumber3 · 23/01/2015 13:28

Hi all. I have read back only the last page and I'm really sorry to hear the bfns and afs.

After what has turned out to be an eventful day I have just managed to get logged on to say I got my bfp this morning. No question as it was a digital 1-2weeks. Still in shock, was not expecting it at all

Me and my sister r so so close and we don't live near anymore so there was no doubt in my mind I was going to tell her straightaway, however I accidentally sent the message to the wrong whats app group and have ended up telling ALL 15 of my friends by accident. I just cried. I was so upset. so much can go wrong and we didn't plan saying anything till all test results had came back after the 12 weeks scan. Never mind I'm trying to laugh about it a bit now.

I wish everyone of u so much luck on getting your bfp and will certainly be keeping an eye out on the thread for them. Good luck ladies and thanks for all your support x

AnnaBegins · 23/01/2015 11:56

Sorry pulpi and blimey Flowers

Fx for those testing today. AF is now 2 days late but I feel so crampy and shivery that she must be on the way. Undecided whether to poas tomorrow morning or not Confused

Blimeygirl · 23/01/2015 11:54

Yeah classing it as a chemical pg as I had two positive cheapy sticks and a positive cbdigi so unlikely to just be a late AF. It's ok I have three lovely children to look after today (I'm a nanny) who are keeping me busy so as to not focus on the oh so sore AF!

Can I just say I've adored all of your support on this bus but I might just lurk on the feb bus to try and calm down a bit! As I explained to the husband symptom spotting is ok if it's just a 2ww (still agonising when you're in it I know!) but it's the 8ww that has sent me bonkers this time!

See you on the feb bus! Well I will lurk!

spinningirl10 · 23/01/2015 11:31

Mustbemad, fx af stays away.

Thanks Cariad, good luck with the dtd this weekend Wink

Trixie, have a wonderful holiday. I use the cold, would much rather be warm in the sunSmile

Nomio230 · 23/01/2015 11:16

Sorry to all of you who have had bad news.

Bovyn, I have already tested 3 times! I am not as patient as you. How are you doing? Anything to report?

I am off to the Midlands today. Babysitting for my nephews aged 8/4/18 months. I have three whole days of slobbery kisses & being attacked by dinosaurs!

Fx for anyone testing today.

dojo123 · 23/01/2015 09:49

knit sorry AF has arrived Fx for the feb bus.

Just got back from the docs. I don't have laryngitis, I have tonsillitis! Now on a course of antibiotics for the next 10 days.
Doc also did a pregnancy test and it was a BFN but it is really still too early to tell.

catlady87 · 23/01/2015 09:43

Sorry to hear your news Pulpi and the others who are disappointed ?? it's Friday so ??all round. Still a few days to go for me. Feeling much the same, can't tell if it's AF or something else. Shattered and achey. Only on cycle 3 of TTC1, came off the pill after 10 yrs in October and my cycle has been miraculously ok, just a couple of days out. Hopefully it will stay that way if AF does come. X

mustbemad71 · 23/01/2015 09:34

So sorry Purdey and Pulpi and sorry about your chemical (hate that term) Blimey.

CD24 here and feel like AF on her way so no doubt see some of you on Feb bus v soon- save me a seat!

Good luck to all those with BFPs - hope they are all sticky ones. xxx

KnitFastDieWarm · 23/01/2015 09:27

See you on the feb bus pulpi Smile

nabs best seats

pulpi · 23/01/2015 09:22

Before I step off the bus, I just want to thank everyone for their support this month. Best of luck to the ladies still in the 2ww, congrats to all those who got their BFPs, and commiserations and massive glasses of wine to those with BFNs.

See (some of) you on the Feb bus!

pulpi · 23/01/2015 09:17

I have no idea how long my luteal phase is, purdey, as I've never even tracked my ovulation. But it will probably increase our odds if we're DTD more than once a month!

Cariad2014 · 23/01/2015 09:10

Sending enormous un-mumsnetty hugs to Blimey and Pulpi - this ttc journey is such a roller coaster.

Good news on the temps Spinning. It would be truly awesome if this was your cycle. Grin

Have a fabulous time on holiday Trixie. Winter sun sounds glorious.

Loving the sound of a whisky sour Knit.

CD7 at this end (yawn) although I'm hoping to kick start the dtdathon this weekend.

Cardabelle · 23/01/2015 08:58

Sorry been awol ... AF came on CD31! Now off to the feb bus... So encouraging to see the BFPs come in, congrats to all of you and a big glass of wine for the rest of us...

spinningirl10 · 23/01/2015 08:48

MorningGrin it's a cold one!!

Mary, sorry for the bfn, fx af stays away.

Purdey and blimey, sorry af's arrived, it's shit. Purdey, hope you're feeling a bit brighter after your cryThanks

Sparkly, I hope your cycle returns to normal straight away and you soon have your sticky bfp. Try and do something nice at the weekendThanks

13dpo and I can feel af pains, I also have a cracking headache. Working later so I hope it passes. Temp still up but I suspect it will come down tomorrow closely followed by af.

KnitFastDieWarm · 23/01/2015 08:44

Oh and see ya'll on the February bus!

KnitFastDieWarm · 23/01/2015 08:43

Morning all, I'm joining in the AF team, CD1 here! Angry commiserations to all who are there with me. Next month eh? Smile

To be fair I'm on cycle 1 of TTC #1 and only managed to dtd twice this month during ov so was being a BIT optimistic....

On the plus side, my lovely DH made me the most glorious whiskey sour cocktail last night as I was feeling a bit sorry for myself - he's a keeper :)

MarysPrayer · 23/01/2015 08:40

Bfn for me this morning Sad Only 11 or 12dpo though so maybe too early? feeling meh.

HairStylistToBoris · 23/01/2015 08:35

Still lurking here Flowers for all third having a tough time. Still keeping everything crossed for those still waiting for their bfps.

ninjabeer · 23/01/2015 08:18

Hi ladies, strictly speaking I should be on the Feb bus but just hanging out to see how you are doing. Sorry for the difficult time some of you are having. Sending Cake and Wine in abundance.

dojo123 · 23/01/2015 07:52

Sorry purdeypulpi and blimey Flowers

I'm still really suffering from this cold/flu and have booked in to see my doctor today to see if there is anything else I can take to sooth the symptoms. Had a coughing fit last night which ended with me being sick. Then this morning nearly passed out in the shower as I felt so dizzy, needed to lie on the bathroom floor for a few minutes to recover. Have had stabbing pains in my abdomen but don't know if this is cold related or pg related.

One positive is I've lost 4lbs this week! (Silver lining)

PurdeyBirdie · 23/01/2015 07:50

Oh I'm so sorry pulpi - and flabberghasted - how long was your luteal phase then??

blimey are you classing this as a chemical then? That was definitely a line we saw.

Bovnydazzler · 23/01/2015 07:47

Sorry pulpi I just read my message back. I didn't mean celebrate at all, mean to write commiserate Blush sorry xx

letsdothisthing · 23/01/2015 07:46

Sorry pulpi and blimey Flowers

Sparkly, nice to hear from you! I can totally relate to your posts as I had a mc at 9 weeks in Nov, the shock is horrendous and throws off all your plans (that you undoubtedly make when you POAS and see the second line!) It took a good while for my hcg to come down to normal levels, started off over 5000 then down to 200s then about 30 before dropping below 5, all together it took about 3 weeks I think! Then I tested negative, the docs said I would ovulate again and my period would return as normal afterwards! My wtf cycle was 50 days!!! And totally felt in limbo land but hopefully yours will be less as you will have had less of the pregnancy hormone being earlier on in the pregnancy than I was! Once I had my negative we tried again straight away but I didn't get a positive OPK throughout that cycle so not sure I even ovulated!

Now in first cycle post wtf cycle and currently 7dpo! No symptoms but temps are going up so I'm staying positive! Flowers
