The October bus is here!!!

[AmandaCooper]

Ding ding ding all aboard! I've been waiting for this bus since November 2009!!!

Yes, good luck to everyone! DD took 15 months ttc and the first month I joined a MN thread...BFP!

I gave up putting life on hold ttc DD. Weekend wine is a right!

Hello new passengers! Let's hope we get loads of BFPs. Not holding out hope for one myself this month - twiddling thbs and POAS until AF turns up. I bought about 50 cheap tests on eBay for a few pounds. Going through them even though it's too early

Iggly I was just as bad last month, this month I will try to have more self-control!

It's addictive, isn't it seven?! Even though I know it'll be a BFN I cant help it!

Well still no AF here. Day 42. I am trying to resist testing again. Not sure if it's still too early with me never knowing when I am due. It's so blody irritating waiting and not knowing.

Iggly I find the urge to test is addictive too! I did 2 within space of 2 days last week which obv both were BFN! I may chack ebay too cos at this rate it's going to cost me a fortune in tests! I don't remember being this bad last time but I suppose I was more regular then so I knew exactly when to test and got BFP first time which was a blessing.

There is very little chance of being pg this month to be honest as DH's shifts have meant we have done very little SWI but it's a possibility I guess.

Just more waiting for me I suppose. I hate this part!

Welcome newbies!

On CD19 so into the 2ww, AF due in 9 days so will resist testing until next week!

Still feel bloated, tired and hungry but no other symptoms and not sure if we timed it right as OH seems to be turning to drink! :)

Oh oddbodd its so frustrating when your cycle is confusing.

hello all
AF today, and now I will be scowling out of the window of the October bus; possibly flicking the V's at lorry drivers along the way. i will now look down the back of my seat for any bits of chocolate or biscuit crumbs.

Hello Iggly I'm glad I'm not the only maniac around here who keeps testing

I'm on CD 23 of a 28-29 day cycle and have done 4 tests already. One clearblue digital(what a waste!) an done first response (likewise!) but the rest have been the amazon cheapies so `i don't feel ive wasted quite so much money!

Will obviously have to keep testing, I may as well admit it. . .

Not really sure about the symptoms now. Felt pretty sure I could be pregnant around 3-4 days post ovulation but not so much now. Still do think I'm more likely pregnant than not but that's probably because I'm an optimist

'and one', not 'an done'!!!

Loving the POAS addiction. arabella I recommend getting cheapies. Costs a fortune otherwise! Have done one this morning. BFN obviously.

I'm a loon. I don't feel pregnant. Had mild cramps last night but probably wind

Oh doctordolly, sorry that this bus was not lucky for you. I'll join you on the flicking v's and scouling though, no AF here, I'm just an anti social bugger!

I am reall ythinking I may have to test tomorrow if no AF by then. It will be 43 days and never has one lasted so long so I will have to test just to see. I am hopefull I am pg but I don't feel it in the slightest but not sure if I did with ds at this early stage.

Looks like it could be a long wait for me though. God damn irregular periods! I have no idea if we actually swi on my fertile days or even if indeed I actually ovulated or not this month. It was soooo easy last time! Finding it a bit consuming this time. I am thinking and wondering all day, it's like an obsession now. I am trying to not go on about it to dh in front of ds but it's hard because I just want to know! Either way I need to find out!

Hello to everyone new

Ive had a neg result on Internet cheapie test this am but have a couple of first responses. I want to use one (am 6 days before period arrival date). What do you think I should do? am I allowed to waste another test?

Hey arabella I would wait if you can...I read a long thread on MN about the reliability of FR tests and not sure it's worth putting yourself through the torment...if you test again today and get a BFN then you'll only want to test again for every day until AF due but if you try and hold out then at least there's more chance of getting the result you want rather than taking yourself on what could be an emotional rollercoater ride this week between the tests . Not easy though...the waiting is hideous and I do sympathise! I'm just glad I've only got one normal test in the house as it's helping me hold off til Thursday/Friday when AF due.

PS Does anyone know how soon you would start putting weight on if you were PG?

I've been away from work for 3 weeks and was quite careful not to have an over-indulgent Christmas and even though I was on holiday I have definitely been away and eaten much more than I did this time and only put on a 1lb...this time I seem to have gained almost half a stone and my work clothes are feeling SO tight and uncomfortable this morning! Maybe it's the bloating not helping too but that doesn't normally = weight gain! Am confused . Really don't mind having put some on if I am PG but if AF comes at the end of the week then I need to go on a serious diet to avoid having to buy a whole load of new clothes!

arabella agree about FR. Didn't work for me until the day AF was due with DS. I wasted one four days before it was due. Not impressed!

Thanks for the wise words blue

I'd be hopeful re your weight gain. Bloating is a v early pg symptom and if that's due to water retention it could account for a couple of pounds or so?

Good luck
