****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

Hello all,

May I join the bus?

Stats are

LucyLev TTC#1, Cycle 6, ucl 35-36 CD2

Thought I may have been preg this month, was a week late but AF came yday so will give another month a shot

Good luck to all

decafgirl · 12/01/2010 16:15

Hmmm only began the SWI last night - DH knows he's in for a full week of it! Haven't had my high temperature yet but have had some EWCM so am hoping it's a good sign.

Strangely already feel sick as a dog today (obviously I would never imagine this to be a sign...)

Won't officially be on the 2ww till post high temp but am already looking forward to it.

Hope all is well for all you other lovely ladies xxx

ILoveGregoryHouse · 12/01/2010 15:52

ooh, quite a few on the 2ww eh? Am theoretically on day 15 but only got my positive on the opk yesterday morning. BUT, had a bright red watery bleed on Day 13. Confused. Was that an ov bleed? Maybe cervical erosion along with enthusiastic swi . No cm today, though. ANy insight most appreciated. Think might persuade DH for another BD this evening. If he makes it home from work that is .

No early testing for me this month, waiting until Day 28 at least (she says).

Keeping it all crossed for the bfps to start rolling in for the bus.

heading4home · 12/01/2010 15:39

Just updating stats because I seem to have lost a day somewhere along the line - on CD7 today and have informed DH to get ready for a week of action

I've bought pregnancy tests and opks, as well as my BBT thermometer from
www.homehealth-uk.com/index.html

addictedtomn · 12/01/2010 12:51

here is a really good place, but the shop is shut at the moment

Bessie123 · 12/01/2010 12:06

Can someone please tell me where to get these internet cheapies from? Tests are costing me an absolute fortune every month.

Original poster
stuffedmk · 12/01/2010 11:58

Planning? lol

Have already broken out the internet cheapies It makes me feel like I am doing something

I think the fact that the tests cost hardly anything helps me not be upset with the BFN. It still early, best guess (going on CM as I havn't got into temping yet) is that I am only 9 dpo today. Reckon I am due on anytime from Friday onwards, so still a bit of waiting left probably.

DH just keeps telling me I must be pregnant or I look pregnant not sure I like that as it can clearly only be fat at this stage even if I am lol. Mind you I showed almost immediately with DS. I suspect though the belly has more to do with the xmas gluttony than anything else

addictedtomn · 12/01/2010 11:18

lucybrad, good luck.

morning all, i am officially in the 2ww and am symptom spotting and driving myself mad, but at least its keeping my mind off my gyne appointment on thursday

stuffedmk, when are you planning on testing?

Original poster
stuffedmk · 12/01/2010 10:29

Good luck at the docs tomorrow, will be interested in what they have to say on the issue.

OP posts:
lucybrad · 12/01/2010 10:19

morning everyone - I have a doctors appointment booked for tommorrow. I know its only been 4 months but I am 38 and i think my cycles seem irregular, and i am having short AF 's so I think I will ask them if they think i am ovulating. I know at my age your meant to wait until 6 months trying but i cant wait for anything

i am stupidly broody - which is a real pain - i knew this would happen if i tried for another baby. before we decided to try i could have taken or left it, but now its like an obsession that i think about all the time .

hope that we get some BFP from those at the top of the bus

No symptoms could be a good thing....No symptoms at least means no period symptoms
Boobies still hurting here lol
DH in all his wisdom, told DS this morning that we were trying to make a little brother or sister for him....The pressure is on now

Bessie123 · 12/01/2010 08:44

Good morning, just keeping my place. I have no symptoms at all this month, is that good or bad? stuffedmk I'm jealous of your symptoms.

PoppyIsApain · 11/01/2010 20:12

I have felt like crap this week, think ive got a bug or something. Not knowing my CD day is very irratating.

digitalgirl · 11/01/2010 16:31

Confused.

Does anyone ever get blood tinged EWCM?

The last couple of cycles I've ovulated earlier than usual, very soon after AF and have wondered if it's down to spotting from tail end of AF, over enthusiastic SWI or violent egg eruption.

Have my mum to stay so we get to swi in comfy bed rather than get carpet burns on the living room rug!

stuffedmk · 11/01/2010 12:03

Well, as I started this bus I am still hopping on occasionally but I think this cycle is looking more normal length than the last so will be looking at late sept.....but....if AF turns at the weekend at least I will be accustomed to the facilities even if I have to view them from the back instead of the front lol.

Have sore boobs, which I am convincing myself is a good thing. But started to get same sort of tummy aches as last couple of cycles which may well mean AF will show up again .
Have many ebay cheapies to pee on between now and weekend though lol.

decafgirl · 10/01/2010 23:01

Ta very much, am just in the process of screeching at DH via text too! Obviously this is all his fault...

FWIW, probably not due to ov until this week (quite long cycles) so fingers crossed we haven't missed our chance this cycle.

Can't believe only a couple of months ago I was only contemplating #2! xxx

BUnderTheBonnet · 10/01/2010 22:51

AAARRGGGHHHHHHHH! That do,decaf? We're almost cycle buddies.

decafgirl · 10/01/2010 22:14

Just popping in to SCREAM VERY LOUDLY...

I WANT TO BE PREGNANT NOW PLEASE!!!!!!

Phew, sorry...just had to get that out.

Haven't DTD yet this month once . TBH DH is doing my head in and feel more like slapping him today than anything else! He's away for work tonight so can't even pretend to make up with him...

Anyone else around? xx

LadyBee · 10/01/2010 21:50

woohoo, period's on its way out, am about to tip DH the wink and let him know. This is my favourite part of the cycle - action stations. I can just about cope with the first week after ov, but the last week I do go a bit bonkers to be frank. The waiting just gets to me so badly.

Metformin is treating me ok so far (there can be stomach upsets when you first start up), and I've lost a little weight since we got the wii, only a tiny bit but it's a start in the right direction...shall just ignore the fact that I'm currently waiting for DH to bring me rhubarb crumble and icecream

Lorelai · 10/01/2010 21:39

No probs, I have plenty (they were baked in an attempt to get DD to eat some fruit - she saw straight through it [shmm] so now I have loads spare!)

I'm also not too fussed what I have - desperately wanted a girl first time round and got one, now I don't really mind, but I think I will probably have a girl (am vegetarian, and apparently that means I am more likely to have girls)

QueenFee · 10/01/2010 20:10

ooh I will have one of those muffins please. I have a girl and 2 boys so not worried what I have really.
