january bus!..anyone for the long journey to bfp!

I might have a squinter! I just ate a ton of goats cheese too

U just made me laugh mama kkk .lots of luck and hope u get a bfp (then u will have to swallow your own words)

It's only a quiet-ish night at a friend's so I could easily sneakily pour my drink into a plant pot or something (forgive me, prosecco Gods) but I'd rather know so I can drink guilt free if it's a BFN. I'm 95% sure it didn't work this month because I'm getting stupid pre-AF pimples on my chin as usual... Come on womb, you lazy fecker. SORT IT OUT!

I'll only be 3dpo but if I was 9/10 dpo I'd test to check myself especially if you're off out etc x

Nope mimi two more negative OPKs for me today!
How annoying that your AF has come so early!

Annarose my experience of a positive opk much earlier than expected in a cycle has always been when my body has geared up to ovulate but hasn't done so and I have then had ovulated later on in the cycle. I just wanted to give you the heads up that it might be worth doing a few more OPKs, just in case... Hope I am wrong in your case and you have caught the egg though. I always believe in dtd for a few days after the first positive too

Hope everyone had a good Christmas.

Aww, Bindi that sucks. Glad you'll be hanging around though, Jan might be your month yet.

I'm 9DPO and thinking about doing an FMU test tomorrow morning just in case. I'm not really an early tester usually but it'll influence whether I drink or not on NYE so I feel like I should. What are you guys doing?

Mini and kitty did u get your +opk today ?fx for u guys.ttc sure messes up cycles and life haha.if i didn't want baby so much i'd give up now!

Sorry bindi good luck next cycle.
Good luck celen and anna.hope all the hard work in dtd will land u bfps !
After a lot of dtd over xmas,af just came full swing yesterday at cd19 imagine !!ttc is the worst i tell u.i hve run out of ideas if af comes even before the tww eish!!

My previous post - I didn't read it before I posted and it looks like I was doubting you Annarose, which is rude and I wasn't meaning to, I'm so sorry What I should have written was "God I just can't be arsed to dtd after ov as well as all the shagging beforehand!"

Sorry to hear that Bindi, bloody AF!

I'm 2dpo only...god I hate the 2ww. Last month wasn't too bad with Xmas looming but now there's nothing to distract me! How's everyone else doing?

The bitch just turned up. I'll stay on this bus though as I'll be due to test again end of Jan. Good luck to all still waiting - we're due some BFPs soon surely?!

After I wrote that, I then researched and you're right Annarose! Although as you get older, the time between the surge and egg releasing is shorter apparently...all very interesting

Anyway we sadly didn't manage to do it either but hope the 4 times in the last week will be enough

Interestingly tonght I'm getting a line thats really almost as strong as the control line on the opk. Not a clue whether to consider it a positive or not......

Remember the + on the OPKs indicate the surge before ovulation! So you won't ovulate for a day or two after that, and then the egg is viable for a day after that!

Mind you, after all my own talk, no shagging this evening. Baby has been a nightmare all day and we're absolutely shattered after a day of toddler tantrums and we have to leave in an hour. Neither of us can rise (ahem) to the occasion.

Hopefully tomorrow will be enough!

Hey can I join too. Not feeling very positive that January will be our month, but I have to try a little positivity!
Think AF is trying to make an appearance (Ps not good with these abbreviations, but learnt that one through Google).
Hate the term trying to concieve as it brings disappointment!
I'm 32, been 'trying' for first baby since October 2014 but had 2 losses along the way. Last loss was early August, my head and heart is ready although my body has other plans. Hoping 2016 will be a good year.

back on the bus for January continuous POAS activity due to AF being a week late but arrive it did (at least in time to allow for Christmas drinking)

ttc#1 and this is third cycle of trying post implanon removal. Now CD10 so expect to be testing about 17 Jan.....

fingers crossed everyone :)

keep at it for 2 days after it fades ?!? Naaaah...

We did celen though it's not v sexy when your DH isn't expecting it and has just snarfled 2 small bags of Doritos!

Anyway just cos the surge is over doesn't mean you can rest! Keep at it for 2 days after it fades!

I'm flipping knackered and have to go out to a "do" this eve, and the thoughts of having to wearily DTD before the babysitter turns up.......and having to get all dolled up as well......AND there's a storm starting so I dread going out at all.

It's not exactly a turn on!

I have fx too for you wee. Work is rubbish! Annoyingly seems like I have work commitments when my fertile times will be over next few months :(
Still no positive here either mini but got EWCM yesterday so can't be far away. I think you can miss an OPK, sometimes it's there for a very short time. I read it was best to OPK about 4-5pm, which is why I use a CBFM because I would never manage it then!

There's still hope then wee!
Still no positive opk for me, CD19 now is it possible to not get a positive opk but still ov? I'm testing twice per day, fmu and midday, have done since CD10. Clutching at straws!

Oh wee really sorry, I feel your pain. I've had two BFN now this month, not even a vague hint of a positive. AF due New Years day. Boobs are excruciating today but I think it's a period rather than anything else. DH has been off for 3 weeks (bar three days over actual Xmas Day) so I was putting way too much hope into our first go, he's home most weekends until April, but it's always sods law that he will miss the ones that count! Then post-April he's back once a month with a mammoth 3-4 month tour at some point before the end of the year. Grrr

11dpo today. I know you're right, it's not over til the witch shows up, but I think I just know I'm out.
I never thought my age would get to me either! I'm 36 now and have become hyper aware that things 'can' go downhill now. But I've also realised that I can't give up trying. I so desperately want #4 to complete our family. It just feels right.
Wow I'm a bundle of laughs today

All the positive opk'ers get bonking! We need some bfp's on the bus!

Hello to new passengers

Oh wee that sounds really hard You've got every right to feel sorry for yourself, please make sure you treat yourself? How many dpo are you? It can happen up to 12 dpo.

Did you manage to get jiggy Annarose? We did and it looks like my surge has passed now so the hideous 2ww now starts for me...tick tock tick tick...

Welcome vivi!

That's quite exciting Curly, what are you doing NYE (apart from poas-ing?)? Could you hide not drinking if you get a bfp?
