****October bus ready to depart****

OK I have just worked out that if my next cycle is the same length as this one was then I will actually be due 1st October if I get pg so rather than sitting at the back of the September bus I thought I might skip straight ahead to the next one lol.

Plenty of chocolate and biscuits ready for the journey

fairygodmother that means I booked the test for the wrong day [grr] It will be ok wont it? Not seeing a lot of DH at the moment, he is usually home late, I'm either at home exhausted (need to get to the bottom of my meds) or late in myself, then quick tea, then sleep. Going to be a long run I think

mumofzac · 02/02/2010 18:41

Got stupid AF overnight so off to the November bus. See some of you there x

Sorry to all those who have left the bus recently.

And good luck to those coming up to testing - we need some more BFPs to make the grads list look a bit more respectable

mumofzac · 01/02/2010 22:33

Forgot to say good luck to Lunatic Fringe, and others testing in the nest few days. Come on October bus (whooping cheers etc)...

mumofzac · 01/02/2010 22:30

Thought AF had arrived yesterday with cramping and tiny bit of pink cm on wiping. But that is still all I have got so far. Day 30, so not getting my hopes up too much - normally 28/29 days. Off to bed now. Really hope AF does not arrive overnight but think she is on her way. Is it too late for ovulation bleed, and is it meant to be brown rather than very light pink? Any hope ??!!

Fairygodmother1 · 01/02/2010 20:53

Nymph, you're def a day ahead of me hon. I'm on 19 today!

Hope everything is ok with DH? Schools def seem to be going through it at the mo!

jennimoo · 01/02/2010 20:52

Well it's a week since my BFP and apart from being bloated and gassy (which isn't entirely unusual ) and tiny twinges in nipples I don't have any symptoms, so those of you with no symptoms that doesn't mean you aren't pg!
Good luck to those of you still waiting
Jenni x

Nymphadora · 01/02/2010 20:43

Think I gained a day somewhere, day 21 is definately Weds as I have my 21 day blood then.

FrenchLimeBlossom · 01/02/2010 20:31

Well I will be due on Thursday and will probably test that day, unless AF arrives. Have had an odd headache yesterday and today (as last month) and yesterday evening had a sharp pain in my right side fir about 2 minutes, but otherwise nothing odd. Am not feeling the PMS but we shall see.

Plus not had my day 21 blood test back yet, who knows what that will say!

Have a really busy weekend though so either way will keep me distracted - cannot sit and mope or moon as we have a huge group of friends coming to stay for the weekend.

Fingers crossed for some good BFPs this week and next!

Loujalou · 01/02/2010 20:31

I thought I would add myself to the bus. There needs to be some more BFPs. Mine included, no offence but am looking forward to joining the antenatal threads one day... Its been long enough.

Sorry to see so many have left the bus the past few days
So many are leaving us. Nov Bus must be standing room only by now.

Another 10 days before I can tell either way...not convinced it'll be a BFP tho!

votr sorry to see you go

Who's testing this week? We need some more bfps.

Vodkaontherocks · 01/02/2010 16:51

I'm jumping off, AF got me - 3 days early too! Good luck to you all x

digitalgirl · 01/02/2010 13:23

Got lower back ache now. AF will be here by the end of the week. If I get it before the weekend it either means I ovulated earlier than my weekend of cramping so our one shag was in with a better chance than I thought. Or it means I have a short luteal phase. Which is not good. May have to start popping more vitamins, eating less biscuits or whatever it is people do to lenghten their luteal phase. But will wait till period comes before deciding what course of action to take.

Sorry to those leaving us. Feel very sure I'll be joining the Nov bus soon. Then after that I may take a couple of months off ttc as there are too many birthdays in jan in our family.

BUnderTheBonnet · 01/02/2010 10:38

I'm off work today - stomach upset, hopefully caused by hormones. Got a positive on the OPK today, and small amounts of EWCM! Hurray!

DH has been warned. Luckily he's very obliging. "Do you want me to just get on with it?" "Oh yes please, darling, that'd be great".

stuffedmk · 01/02/2010 10:01

Yet to see a proper temp shift but looking like it is moving upwards, just not high enough or for long enough yet, to say I have yet ovulated. DH has been ill so the SWI has gone out the window . If my temp keeps rising then the most likely day of ovulation is yesterday which makes the last BD three days before. I know that means there is a chance but I would prefer to have the odds a bit more in my favour.
But there again I don't even know if I have ovulated yet (and there isn't likely to be any BD over the next few days) so I am currently just hoping that it isn't even later
And actually just want to see a temp rise so I know ovulation is happening at all.

Sorry bit emotional today. I was so positive at the start of this cycle, now it looks like I will probably have to wait a bit longer and I don't like waiting

DS keeps asking if there is "any progress on the new baby?"
Grrrrr! Why did DH have to tell DS, it makes it so much harder. Last night DS started telling me names he likes. Thankfully he seems to have good taste so if it ever happens we may well be able to consider his opinions lol.

Anyway, CD 18 and no idea what is happening

Im off the bus,got AF tonight,she is at least 4-5 days early as well
Also cant try for the next 3months as DH worhing away and none of his at home times coincide with my fertile time,in fact he due back at the points AF will be visiting
Good luck everyone else,hope a few more BFPs come up!

UmBongo · 31/01/2010 19:26

I'll drink to that [hic] ladybee My sil has been round today and we had a great chat about what we are doing to refurb our knackered old house (nothing major, just bits that still need doing from moving in!) So I feel alround much better than yesterday (lets face it, feeling worse could have been a bit tricky)

So thankyou to you all on here and to my sil.

LadyBee · 31/01/2010 18:52

mumofzac, I'm exactly the same , no symptoms, no sore boobage, keep feeling that deep low ache that means AF on its way. Am just mostly impatient for it to come so I can get on with the next cycle.
Had a lovely chat with a good friend last night while out for drink and as ever, it made me feel more on an even keel. This is an emotional rollercoaster, and I think it's incredibly important to have someone who can remind you of everything else that's going on your life. I don't think anyone can sustain having ttc as the only thing in their life for long and stay sane

mumofzac · 31/01/2010 15:21

I was due yesterday or today. Not here yet but can feel AF about to vist. Feel a bit crampy and not a single symptom to spot. Keep poking my boobs to see if they are sore but they are not!! Good luck to everyone else who is on the last few days of the two week wait. It is such a frustrating time x

BUnderTheBonnet · 31/01/2010 14:59

Well it's not going terribly well on the bus recently, is it? Sorry to all the people shoved off the bus by the witch.

Plenty of people coming up to testing over the next few days, though. Maybe we can get a run of good luck?

SilverBoots · 31/01/2010 11:08

Morning All!

AF is here today, so I'm off!

Good luck to all, hope to see MANY more BFPs.
