I have just stocked up on grapefruit juice and pineapple juice!!

On special offer in Sainsburys!!! Grin

weimy · 02/03/2011 20:17

Hi all,

Just figured out that I have two goes at a december baby! ( If AF behaves herself!).

I am taking epo till ov and will do pineapple juice after I think.

spidookly · 02/03/2011 20:36

Yay, it's a doubler weimy. That means you can put your bag on the seat beside you :)

weimy · 02/03/2011 23:03

Done!!!

Daiso · 03/03/2011 08:08

So I'm now on the 2WW. Apologies for taking up a seat on here - no doubt I'll be kicked off and then hopping straight back on again as worked out my next cycle EDD is 22nd Dec so I will rightfully be on here rather than be a big fat oaf needing 2 seats....!!

Good luck everyone x

Hello everyone. AF got me this morning... so can I have a bag on the December bus please?

Tomatoplantproject TTC#1 cycle 4 ucl 24-28 days CD 1

googietheegg · 03/03/2011 09:13

Morning Tomato - sorry about the visit from the old bag. Welcome aboard though!

ANyone got any inside info on pooting or this juice business? It's only my second cycle but want to do all I can...when/why/what/how?!?!?

weimy · 03/03/2011 16:26

welcome tomato!!!

Karbea · 03/03/2011 21:39

hello,

klmbea TTC#1 cycle 4 ucl 22-26 CD3

I am sooooo cold!!!

spidookly · 04/03/2011 12:09

Daiso it's nice to have someone at the business end of the month while the rest of us are just shagging away with nothing to report :)

But any BFP you get is claimed for the December bus, even if it will be a November baby, OK? :o

welcome tomato and Karbea

Daiso · 04/03/2011 16:35

Spookidly: If I get a BFP then I shall def let this bus claim it - in fact, do you think that its fate and I HAVE concieved yet baby will be 7 days late and born on 1st Dec specifically for the purpose of this bus?!?! ( Gone completely TTC mental!!)
Shag away hun, and enjoy it!! :-)

orangehead · 04/03/2011 16:42

Agree this bus should claim. If I conceive this month it would actally be nov baby as would be having cs and they tend to do them early. Anyway getting way ahead of myself here so I will shut up

weimy · 04/03/2011 18:14

Cd 7 sooooooooooooo bored!!!

spidookly · 04/03/2011 19:20

No, weimy - this is the nice calm bit. Not really time yet to worry about ovulating, just nice low-pressure "it might happen" sex. :)

weimy · 04/03/2011 20:53

spidookly Good point! SFF I remember the days!

Iggly · 05/03/2011 07:23

hi ladies I fell off the bus as not keeping up so back again! not really taking it seriously this month as last two cycles I've been driving myself mad and wasted a lot of money on BFNs.

BlueCrane · 05/03/2011 10:12

Morning all...please can I get my ticket stamped and lurk at the back of the bus for a while with a stash of chocolate and topped up hot water bottles? AF got me yesterday after an excruciating wait until CD37 of what maybe should have been a 30 day or 35 day cycle! This will be our 3rd month of trying for no. 1 and so far my body has fooled me twice into thinking we'd cracked it but never a hint of a bfp so hoping this bus will be an easier ride!

Good luck to everyone here

spidookly · 05/03/2011 11:17

Welcome Iggly and BlueCrane

It's one of nature's crueller tricks that the symptoms of early pregnancy are so similar to those of an approaching period.

Every symptom is ambiguous, so you read into them what you're hoping for. It's the perfect recipe for driving yourself crazy.

Anyway, we have our advance party of Daiso checking out the 2ww while the rest of us enjoy the luxury of not having to have sex if it's too much trouble. The pressure's off for now :)

Iggly · 05/03/2011 11:57

Excellent

Fingers crossed for Daiso

Well let's relax and enjoy ourselves until the 2ww Grin I instructed DH that we'll give it a good go this month minus any charting etc so he was obviously obliging!

75sarah · 05/03/2011 13:18

Hello ladies,
I got on the wrong December but but made it here in the end!
Am 35 and TTC #1 so feel pretty ancient. Like BelindaRose, we went into action on the back of a continuing stream of scare stories from the Daily Mail!
Have just been watching 'The Great Sperm Race' from C4 and am beginning to wonder how it ever gets to happen at all - conception, that is! Wink

spidookly · 05/03/2011 13:30

Hi 75 :)

35 is NOT ancient. 1975 was practically yesterday :o (Guess when I was born?)

I know what you're talking about with the media terrors of never being a mother. I had my first child before I was ready because I was so sure it would take years to conceive that I thought I'd better get started.

Sounds stupid, but they had basically convinced me that you couldn't get pregnant just from having sex Blush

Oceynorm · 05/03/2011 14:23

Welcome bluecrane, Iggly and 75.
Of course 35 is not ancient, 75
It so easy to drive yourself crazy, I actually come on a couple of days early last month which I was actually pleased with, its better than being late but bfn. A 37 day cycle bluecrane, no wonder you a bit stressed.
Fingers crossed for everyone.

weimy · 05/03/2011 16:54

Welcome bluecrane, Iggly and 75 !

75 I'm ttc no1 too and 36 this year.

I am going to ignore all symptoms this month and just wait for ertd to arrive. Hmm
