The August Bus departs tomorrow....

Come and join me if you are TTC an August baby [hgrin]

This is my first bus and I think I am being brave in starting the engine.

Haven't been on for a while - lots of catching up - sorry AF got those with BFN. Ongrats to the BFP.

Well, I'm going to make an attempt on DH tonight (he says he's too tired, but we'll see ;) ) and then I think we're in for the 2WW.

We've DTD twice this week, and I know it's naive, but I've already convinced myself we've a really good chance etc etc. We only did it twice before and got DD, so it's not out of the question, right?

I hope not.

Good luck to those testing in the next couple of days!

Thanks every1. Hi to newcomers. Just ordered more OPK and BBT but I'm afraid i'll have to catch the sep bus if this cycle is the one i'll be due 4th sep. Good luck everyone.

By the way here are my stats:

Well AF caught me yesterday, arriving early like she was just trying to spite me hmm

I feel OK about it really. It was our first month trying, so I knew our chances were 25% max. The good news is, if my next cycle is anything this one I shall either be pregnant or able to have a drink on Christmas Day!

So I shall see some of you on the September bus and good luck to all the rest still to test.

Lovely to have your company ladies.

X-post with Gobolino - sorry to see you go and you CMD83.

And welcome to new passengers!

I have updated the stats to move myself further to the back of the bus. I still haven't ovd so this is my new AF due date if I do in the next couple of days. I am so Sad about going back to having a long cycle this month.

I see we have lots of ladies coming up to test this week, yaaaay! Hoping for lots of BFPs.

mrsden · 28/11/2010 09:45

Good morning,

I haven't checked in here for a while, great to see 3 BFP's. Congratulations!

Sorry that AF has caught up with some of you, I'm wishing you lots of luck for next month.

I think I'm 9 DPO, I have no symptoms yet. No sore boobs, no feeling sick, no tiredness, no cramps or aches, no strange taste in my mouth. Nothing at all. In fact I feel very well and normal! I'm hoping that it would still be too early for getting symptoms and it doesn't mean that this month won't be a lucky one. I think I remember some people saying they didn't get any symptoms until after AF was due. So I'm clinging on to hope until AF shows up.

Good luck to everyone testing this week, I hope the BFP's start rolling in!

ravenlocks · 28/11/2010 10:33

Morning! Looking forward to this week on the bus as hopefully more BFPs. Was just lurking on the Sept bus and saw monkeyblonde and broody have changed buses.

passthechocs · 28/11/2010 13:13

Hi all-

Well, am off this bus as AF arrived early this morning Sad. I knew it was an outside chance this month, having missed most of the SWI time designated by the ov calculator on MN (v weird having MN dictating that sort of thing...) but got my hope up with the lateness of the pant snot, coinciding with our limited SWI this month, and had started the phantom symptom spotting with avengeance (thought that was a word, but spell checker doesn't agree..never mind, sums up how I felt!).

Am now feeling a little low about the lack of baby and guess I will join the September bus in time. I think I do need to work out my cycle though - this one was just 24 days long and really don't think that is long enough for any egg to implant, especially given that I think I only ov'ed 7 days before AF arrived.

Good luck everyone else - am hoping for more BFPs this week.

100years · 28/11/2010 13:21

Oh no, we've lost more people :( Sorry it seems we are all departing.

AF still not arrived yet for me, got the lurgy today again, lost voice and cough etc, just my luck AF will arrive and I'll have horrendous pains to go with the lurgy.

OP posts:
queenrollo · 28/11/2010 13:34

if i did when i think this cycle then my due date will be the 5th/6th of Dec and not the 12th as i originally thought.

Er.....it's our 'getting together' anniversary on the 6th, how wonderful would it be to get a BFP for that Grin
Right now i'm quietly resigned to AF showing up instead though. I think after 9 cycles you start to believe it will never happen.....

KLou111 · 28/11/2010 15:52

Well,it seems that many of you are stopping the bus and hopping on the next one. Sorry to see you go

Really sorry all. Am testing Tuesday, but so tempted to test tomorrow as we go away Tuesday morning

GetDownYouWillFall · 28/11/2010 16:30

My AF due tuesday or wednesday but got no symptoms, so think I'm just going to wait it out and not waste a test Sad Don't think this is my month, but not going to give up hope until AF arrives....

ravenlocks · 28/11/2010 16:34

queenrollo have updated your stats. passthechocs gutted the evil witch arrived for you and for gobolino too. We need some good news guys!

Go on, test tomorrow klou111. Smile

KLou111 · 28/11/2010 17:27

I think I might raven as have a load of 10miu cheapies off ebay so only 18p wasted if no show yet :)

Did whywait test??

KLou111 · 28/11/2010 17:40

Forgot to say, went into town with DH last night to watch the rugby (me on lime/soda or hot choc, funny in a busy pub on a sat night!) and DH told me 'Your tits are massive' Made me laugh :) so thought I would share it.

Also had white CM today and yesterday. If it wasn't for the fact DH and I haven't DTD for 2 days, I would have thought is was from him. Not sure if this is good/a sign?

Can't wait til tomorrow now :)

myweeangel · 28/11/2010 18:40

Good luck everyone testing tomorrow. Had very few symptoms today after a weekend of bad cramps so feeling bit unhopeful. Leaving it til at least Tues before I test.
Agree the tests are expensive but the worst thing is seeing that "Not Pregnant"!

KLou111 · 28/11/2010 18:46

myweeangel you can get strip tests on ebay. If you buy 25 they are about £4.50 ish inc del so you can test away!!

RugbyWidow7 · 28/11/2010 21:00

Hello, good luck to those waiting to test and fingers crossed! I can't update the stats as I'm away and on my phone but I'd love to be re-included as I'm still in the Aug bus I think.

I have EWCM and we're trying really hard week. I also have lots of pains this month which I'm finding v confusing, and after research can't think can be anything but ovulation pains. Too early for implantation I think... I wish. I can't remember having them this much before, but I'm prob taking more notice.

Stats are:
TTC 1 cycle. 1 ucl 30 af due 15 Dec

Good luck everyone

ravenlocks · 28/11/2010 21:03

Sounds positive Klou111!

GetDownYouWillFall · 28/11/2010 21:06

Welcome back Rugbywidow if you;ve got EWCM sounds like ov pains to me! Good luck!

WhyWait - well that does sound good that AF not arrived yet! Period pains but no period could be the ball of cells snuggling down into your womb!

You are very restrained not to have tested yet, I have to say Smile

RugbyWidow7 · 28/11/2010 21:14

Thanks Getdown. There's been so much SWI this week, it's getting tricky to keep up. I'm going to be apart from DH for next 4/5 nights though so one final charge tonight! :)
