Hi everyone,
Thought I'd kick of the Feb bus.
I'm ttc #3 and it isn't easy this time.......
I'm planning on giving Feb all I've got - who's with me??!

And gruffalo I agree, I have one DS who's 3 and a DSS who's 4, and the house is bloody crazy when they're both together!

Wed been discussing ttc for a while, then we had a last minute wobble and I went for the MAP but DP came into the room like some kind of fertilisation hero and we decided to carry on trying Grin that was in Nov, nothing yet!

DS wasn't planned. And neither was DSS! Which makes it all the more frustrating when you're actually trying!

Another BFN this morning! I can't help myself! Had some cramping last night though, had enough that it woke me up! Thought AF was early but nothing as yet.

Maybe I just need a poo though. Trying not to get my hopes up. DP is convinced that this is the month though!

gruffalohoh · 09/02/2017 09:34

Hey all, congratulations for BFPs and commiserations for those that with AF

Ohb0llocks you are amazing with your early POAS! You are a day ahead of me so I am going to wait until you get your BFP before I start to test.

Having a major wobble here now that I am in the 2ww (around 7dpo). Having some symptoms that may indicate a successful cycle but that has brought all my reservations to the forefront of my mind and made the possibility of having 3DC slightly terrifying. Arrggghhhh. This is the worst 2ww ever.

Hi ladies. Quick question. I had a positive ovulation test on monday evening yet my temp hasnt risen. Could it be a failed ovulation/no egg? Or simply because im sleeping in less clothes so not keeping the heat in? I had definite pains in my left ovary area yesterday midday.

MrsC1982 · 09/02/2017 06:09

Horrendous O pain last night, and DH has a rotten cold so that's us done for this FW!

And so it begins... again

EMHW hang in there, I'm sure you will get your peak soon! Mine was CD18, way later than any other month when I've been tracking. I guess that means I have to wait even longer now before I can do a pg test Angry

Oooh I'm a couple of days behind you then. Fx for both of us! I'll be waiting for your bfp soon!

Ohb0llocks · 08/02/2017 22:07

88 I'm 7dpo Blush

Anna2006 · 08/02/2017 21:58

Hi ladies

I don't really know what bus to be on at the minute. I normally ovulate CD14 on average but didn't get positive OPKs til CD18 or CD19 this cycle. I chart my bbt and I've had not obvious sustained rise.

I'm not sure if I've even ovulated and waiting for a random AF to show up or if it's just a weird cycle an there may be a miracle BFP!!

Technically on a normal cycle my AF was due today. But seeing as I maybe ovulated like a whole week late. I've got to just hold out an wait.

What a bummer !

mrsbarnettsbaby · 08/02/2017 20:29

There's 2! A bus and a train! Take your pick.

GN06 · 08/02/2017 18:22

Hi Gemma, yep there's a March bus going! X

Gemmaxo · 08/02/2017 16:55

Hi is there a thread for March?

88claire · 08/02/2017 16:34

Ohbollocks

How many dpo are you??

I have a million cheapies lying around which are calling my name....

Ohb0llocks · 08/02/2017 16:26

I caved 😁

Bfn obviously

88claire · 08/02/2017 15:22

Ohbollocks

Very restrained... Well done!!

I have one digi left and determined not to use it until it's to confirm a cheapie 😂

88claire · 08/02/2017 15:21

So this is a serious TMI post. Apologies in advance.

So I've been checking CM as you're supposed to and today I've found this thick white pasty what I can only describe as wet toilet paper looking stuff. It's gross! It doesn't smell but I had it last cycle and actually was so sure it was thrush I treated it. I don't think the treatment made any difference! There's loads of it too....

It's back again In what I think is a similar cycle time (post ovulation). I can't remember seeing it before and the only different was last cycle I got my BFP.

Has anyone experienced this before? I don't want to yet my hopes up its a sign of pregnancy! And at the same time it's gross and I'm worried something is wrong!

So sorry for the TMI! Blush

Ohb0llocks · 08/02/2017 15:11

Managed to hold off testing today! Have ordered some cb digis though.

EMHW123 · 08/02/2017 15:05

pingu thanks for the pic, mine look similar but I've still not got a smiley face or anything remotely positive on the digital!

They have definitely gotten darker but still no confirmation 😭😭😭

Glad you're peaking :)

Mrsbluebell17 · 08/02/2017 13:06

Thanks lovechild. Great to know, still holding out for my BFP. Think AF is on her way, but not completely here yet. Good luck with your next 9 months Smile

Lovechild2016 · 08/02/2017 12:49

I'm rooting for all you girls still on the bus and those who are on the March bus! mrsbluebell no such thing as tmi on mumsnet Smile. Yes used the applicator found it work quite well. I've never had any EWCM so this could have been the key difference that made it happen this month.

PingusMistress · 08/02/2017 11:11

So it looks like I should trust technology over my eyes after all, as I finally got a peak on my CB monitor today! There are definitely two lines of a similar darkness on the stick. Pic attached for those interested. First stick was low, last is peak, all others are high.

Hello all. Ive just had a little break from TTC research/symptom spotting/mumsnet after overloading myself with info! I think i already joined the bus but if not my stats: CD 14 (positive ovulation CD 13) AF due: 25 Feb. 1st clear cycle off birth control. 😁 to all the BFPs!!

Mrsbluebell17 · 08/02/2017 06:34

Congrats to lovechild and walking.
Really great news. Seem to be quite a few BFPs this month which is very exciting.

Lovechild can I ask a question? With the preseed, did you use an applicator? I've heard mixed reviews about whether to use that or conceive plus with an applicator or use as a lube. Sorry if it's TMI. Blush

MistyBxx · 07/02/2017 23:41

I'm staying on the Feb bus and I've also boarded the march train 🚂😂
Looking forward to seeing some more bfps here before Feb is out! At the end of the month, I will be in my 2ww so can totally cruise between bus and train 😂 x
