well girls, it was a nice ride...I stuffed my face with salmon,pate,booze and so on but it's now time to get off and board the August bus!! Good luck to the ladies in limbo!I hope you get your BFP

Luce

kayjayel · 07/11/2010 20:12

Congrats wantonenow! Hope all goes well with pg.

Luce2006, sorry it wasn't your month, good luck with August (I have an August DS, tis a lovely month for a baby!).

goldmaple - sorry to hear your hopes fading, there's always a glimmer, though? Even when I come on I wonder what if - my mum had periods throughout pg with my sister, so I'll still squint at tests hopefully even when period's here!

I had dropped hopes, then got sore boobs, but I think that was only because I remembered that I got that last time, and its gone now. It took 6 mths with DD so I need to remember to chill out! I'm not temping as I think it made it worse for me last time TTC, I would literally cheat my temps and try again until it got 'better' for whatever stage I was in. Because obviously fooling my thermometer is the most important aspect of conception Hmm.

Good luck to all testers this week.

LadyGoneGaga · 07/11/2010 20:12

Just sorted out list. Congrats wantonenow.

Sorry you're off the bus, Luce. Better luck next time.

FF confirmed ov so am on 3dpo now. Going to try and not go as mental this month!

TerrysNo2 · 08/11/2010 09:36

Oh its a short list now!! We only have 7 BFP's though compared to 14 on the June bus so we have some catching up to do ladies!!

Come on BFP's Grin

[grr] forgot to take my temp this am (silly me) but I am 9dpo today. Can't test till Thursday when DH is back so hoping AF arrives by then if it is going to as this not knowing is very frustrating!! Don't feel PG at all though so not expecting anything - but still hoping Grin.

Happy Monday all.

LadyGoneGaga · 08/11/2010 13:15

Morning ladies. Any news from Emsie, Brasso or Jazzy? Shall we move to MIA?

Sorry bout the BFN, Goldmaple. Hopefully is just too early.

kayjayel · 08/11/2010 15:15

I have to confess a BFN - I can't believe I gave in and tested when I know I'm really only 9 or 10dpo Blush. I have bad cramps and backache so think it could be AF on the way. Annoyingly I've no idea when its due really could be tomorrow, could be Friday.

Good luck not going mental LadyGoneGaga! I never manage it!

jaggythistle · 08/11/2010 17:25

Still BFN here. Tested yesterday but didn't bother today as I was onvinced AF was about to appear. My last few cycles have been very regular.

So I'm slightly puzzled, but not got my hopes up much as I think AF may appear by stealth overnight or something.

KLou111 · 08/11/2010 17:33

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

emsiedoodle · 08/11/2010 19:20

Hello ladies I'm still here CD38 now and still no sign of AF or BFP. I haven't tested since Saturday but I have come to the conclusion that it is now impossible for me to have a BFP this month anyway as must have ovulated late and DH was away from CD20 - 30. I have no idea whats going on but I wish AF would just hurry up so I can get trying again.

Congratulations wantonenow and good luck to any remaining on the July bus.

TerrysNo2 · 08/11/2010 19:42

I'm still here!!

jaggythistle · 08/11/2010 19:50

Still no AF in the last few hours Grin

Brasso4 · 08/11/2010 21:02

Hi all

Still here, now on day 45. No sign of AF, can't be bothered to test again until the weekend but think it will be negative. Just want to get AF now.

TerrysNo2 · 08/11/2010 23:10

sorry for all you late AF-ers + negative tests - must be very frustrating! I hope the tests are all wrong!! Smile

goldmaple · 09/11/2010 00:07

brasso4 and emsiedoodle I hate it when cycles act up for no reason!! Hopefully your bodies are getting everything out of your system now and next cycle will be shorter!

jaggythistle and kayjayel sorry about the BFNs. I have given up testing and am now just waiting for AF (hopefully tomorrow and not MIA)

Good luck to everyone who is still in the running!

kayjayel · 09/11/2010 12:06

AF here today, so good luck to everyone else still waiting. thanks for the company on month one! Smile

TerrysNo2 · 09/11/2010 12:29

Sorry for AF arrivals, wishing you all luck on the August bus.

For those still waiting on here with me - these final days are going soooooo slowly!!!

jaggythistle · 09/11/2010 14:29

Still no AF so I am still Confused

Didn't bother testing as my temp has been lower every day for the last 4 days. Only started doing temps about a week ago though to practice for next month, so have no data for first two thirds of cycle!

queenrollo · 09/11/2010 15:55

nothing happening here at all.....herbal stuff has not brought my cycle down as far as I can tell. Did a test yesterday but BFN.

I'm very tearful today, feeling like I want to give up TTC as i just can't cope with this endless wait for AF to turn up. I didn't want to obsess about getting pregnant this time, but it's actually having quite an effect on me.

I am now convinced that my low weight is a problem which is depressing me as I find it so difficult to put weight on, but i don't think i'm going to ovulate until i do Sad

Really don't feel ready to bring my GP into this but i think i've reached a point where i have to either do something or resign myself to giving up.

KnitterNotTwitter · 09/11/2010 17:55

Just thought i'd check in and let you know that I'm still here... Mustn't test until at least this weekend and probably not until early next week.... FWIW I don't feel at all pregnant....

jaggythistle · 09/11/2010 19:55

Oh well, spotting now so guess I will be off to the August Bus. Nice to meet you all, hope the last few passengers have more success.

Not too gutted as it was only month 1, was secretly hoping I guess though as my cycle was a couple of days longer this time, just for suspense!

jaggythistle · 09/11/2010 20:40

updated with no me Smile

good luck again ladies still on this bus.

LadyGoneGaga · 10/11/2010 10:03

Sorry AF got you Emmsie, prob see you in August although hope not. My temps been down for a couple of days - either a dip or going to have a short LP - AGAIN. Sore boobs point to that unfortunately.
