~*~*~*~*~* ALL ABOARD FOR A AUGUST BABY, BUS DEPARTING SHORTLY ~*~*~*~*~*

here hoping muser . Im only on CD6 and have decided to BD frantically all month , because I have no idea when i ov, as my cycles have ranged from 26 days to 36 days. I dont think i trust OPK's as they have never been conclusive for me. Trying hard not to get obsessed lol

Sounds about right to me nymphs. It can be a bit like period pains, or more stabby than that.

Am now DPO6ish. Boobs feel weird. Firmer. I have had people groping them to check this. Well, the husband anyway. He agrees. Nipples are sensitive. Can't decide if I'm a crazy freak, have a new PMT symptom that starts long before period, or am pregnant.

What does ov pain feel like? Had pains in right side yesterday, like stabbing, on and off for a couple of hours. Can't identify it otherwise but it's a bit early

Sorry not posted for a while. Been busy BDing over the past week so have a good excuse

Has anyone used the Wilko's OPK's? Used a pack this week and either didn't ovulate or kit not sensitive enought. TMI - Had plenty EWCM tues/weds so possibly ovulated bit early, but cycle been quite erratic for past 4-5 months.

Now for the 2ww! Already symptom spotting - crazy! Been spotty, overtired, bloated, aargh!

I agree Loujalou we need some more good news to cheer everyone up. Give us some hope ladies please

I've had spotting but still no dreaded witch. If its going to come I wish it would come already. Oh well maybe its just teasing me.

Anyone poas-ing today. Think we need some more good news.

So here I am, day 15. Think I OVed Mondayish. I've decided I have a long luteal phase.

My boobs look bigger. This could be due to the amount of chocolate I've eaten in the last week. MrM says my areola look bigger. Also been bloated all day. Probably the pizza I ate last night.

Oh I do like to symptom spot crazily!

Hi lifeis

we had the family trip last weekedn but I reeeeeeaaallly wanted to see New Moon as my treat and just wish DH would book things instead of me doing it!

flowery I dont eat mushrooms either. This place is usually good but the chilli thing has really thrown me

My first choice for tonight was Zefferellis in Ambleside - Veggie restaraunt and cinema BUT Ambleside is flooded so doubt that will be happening soon!

Mabh not sure if you know Backbarrow? I had my hen day at the Spa there last month and that is well under water

I did really miss being on a bus its so much friendlier than in the main MN , noone recognises me out there

Oh boo for you Nymphadora. for now, have some chocolate or ice cream! Go and have a lovely, yummy, it's the weekend and I derserve a treat, nice breakfast out tomorrow morning. I always feel like going out for breakfast is a luxurey and a bit frivolous! Or go out for a great big Sunday lunch on Sunday.

Not the same as a night out without kids but something nice you can do with DH and DCs and still get to have a birthday treat.

Doesn't it suck that places often still only have a couple of veg options, and there's usually something yuky in them (mushrooms are my problem!)

Was just lurking because I saw nymp was on there. waves at nymph and big hug too

I just wanted to congratulate kaylo and the other graduates too

Didn't just join to moan

Just had my birthday night out

Ended with me crying in tesco car park

it's the only night for 4 weeks around my birthday that the kids are at their dads. I wanted to see New Moon. Dh said about half 4 you better phone up & book tickets . So I phoned and it wouldn't recognise my voice and the website doesn't take bookings.

So we set off early to find it was booked up [surprise] so I said ok we'll go for a meal. Get there get last table(corner by the toilets) and I look at the menu to find only veg options involve goats cheese (gone off cheese when I started with M sickness) and chillies( love them & just found out I'm allergic. So I walked out left DH and sat in the car crying til he caught up.

Don't think my hormones are quite settled yet

mabh
We're on same cycle day, same UCL and both TTC #1, I'll join you in that 2ww! I'm not doing anything to find out when I ovulate and don't know so we're aiming for a bit more BD yet!

I think I need a good slap to prevent symptom spotting though. I have purposely tried to stay inocent about what symptoms might be, and knowing when OV etc. to try and keep things relxed for the first few months at least. Not working though! Last couple of days I've had weird dull ache in back/tummy a bit like when AF on the way, but I am NEVER early and not due for couple of weeks yet so of course I think, ooo maybe that's a symptom. I surely couldn't get symptoms after only a few days even if it dos work this month. Like I said, good slap required!

Nice to have you back on board nymph, although I am sorry you have to be back if you see what I mean!! I was wondering where you had got too!

I think Nymph just misses us all! x

nymph you mean you miss all the talk about mucus?

mabh Its nice to have someone familiar, hence me joining. I just missed the company!

Shirazz No, didn't do OPK, just through ov pains and CM. I usually get pain on one side then the other, so I know that it is ov pains, last for a little while then goes, and I always have EWCM on this day too (and a day or two before). I am just totally confused, but will feel like a plum if I use my last CB when I've already had three -tives.

Lou I know! but I have just one CB left and I will feel like such a dounut if I do it and it's another -tive! I mean, what a waste of money, I've already had THREE! I do really want to test, but that's the only thing stopping me, knowing my luck, it will just be a really long cycle and I'll come on the next day!

nymph don't mean to stalk you but welcome back.

Am joining in, bit half hearted atm but we dont want to wait.

TY Mabh. I have a tray of Hotel Chocolat truffles if anyone wants to dip their hand in. Not sure why I'm feeling so ill, it definately feels like pg symptoms but it could be any number of things like IBS! Fingers crossed for that slow 2WW. Shirazz, normally wine would be welcome but can't face it!

sherida I sympathise. Definately worth that doc's trip, though.

I've just tipped over into the 2ww which is just as well as DH is knackered. At least I know I ovulated this month, which is a wait off my mind. Now see what happens (or not).

Sling me some of that chocolate, will you? I am sufficiently nervous to require it, honest.
