Well I fell off another bus and rather than wait around for the next one I thought I would get another going myself. So have stocked it up with cake, Wine - for the first 2 weeks and Brew - for the 2ww'ers :)

Hoping it will be a lucky bus for lots of us - and I might have a birthday baby :)

Liliana (31) ttc#1 ucl 28 af due 26th March

(I have left out the CD as it is never up to date and all we really want to know is when are people testing!)

Congrats to those with BFP's!

Got bad AF cramps, sure it's going to turn up soon ... AF due in 2 days!

Hope everyone else is doing ok :)

Jebel · 09/07/2011 18:56

There's still a few of us left... After a bfn today I am going to try very hard to wait until tues to test. Feel absolutely nothing of any interest though so will be surprised if this is our month.

Lets hope the last few are positive!

MyCatLikesToHideInBoxes · 10/07/2011 07:02

Morning all - big congrats to MM & Nandrin!

Bfn for me this morning so I'm now just waiting around for AF to show up with my ticket for the April bus.

Feeling ok about it as we probably missed the right time this month so onto Amazon to order some opk's and get cracking in earnest next month. Mr Mycat, however, is taking it as a personal slur on his little swimmers lol. Wink

Pipbin · 10/07/2011 10:03

runs at the bus with shoes flying off and hair still in curlers

Still space for one more?
After trying for one month then stopping because of a dreadful situation at work, we decided to just get on with it and just deal with it if it happens.
Problem is that yesterday was day 15 so I might have missed the bus.

Anyway, stats are:
Pipbin (36) ttc# 1 UCL 28 AF due 23rd June

Jebel · 10/07/2011 10:24

BFN this morning and temp drop so expecting AF this evening or tomorrow :(

HorseyGirl1 · 10/07/2011 11:34

Af arrived today... two days early. Think I need to go to ask doc about this, seems odd. Good luck to all those testing next week xx

Pipbin · 10/07/2011 12:54

Sorry, AF due 23rd July. I always get confused this time of year.

MeconiumHappens · 10/07/2011 17:57

pipbin wouldnt you be needing a ticket to april by your dates? Not that we are elitist on this bus or anything ;) horsey the gp wont do or say anything about af being 2 days earl, just a bit of natural fluctuation.

180 · 10/07/2011 20:47

Horsey my AF arrived today too. TBH was quite relieved as was thinking it had to be chemical if at all as I was just feeling PMT by the end and though better now than later. Good luck to you all and I'm off to the April bus and maybe some earnest trying (DC2 happened by accident so I thought this time would be easy Hmm. Deserved that one I think! x

Jebel · 11/07/2011 06:54

nothing to report here. No AF, no symptoms, BFN.

horsey - although luteal phase should be the same length each month, there can be fluctuation. I read somewhere that drinking can have an impact and I notice that with me my luteal phase is shorter if I have been having lots of alcohol.

Have just given up drinking until end of August - not sure how I will manage!

HorseyGirl1 · 11/07/2011 08:48

I don't drink so not an issue from point of view. Just worried as first AF coming off pill was 28 days, next 2 were 27 and now this one is 25. It probably is OK but would just like to hear that it is. Good luck to all testing soon. xx

Pipbin · 11/07/2011 10:36

Oh MeconiumHappens Would it be April, TBH I'm not sure how it works.

Pipbin · 11/07/2011 10:39

I meant July for AF, I'm easily confused. This time of year all I know is that it's less that 2 weeks until the summer.

Jebel · 11/07/2011 10:39

horsey I think a fluctuation of +/- 3 days per cycle is considered normal. If you're luteal phase is less than 10 days I believe it is considered a defect. Mine is usually 11/12 and I take progesterone to extend it so now 14.

ThisCharmingMum · 11/07/2011 10:57

Morning All,

Congrats to you lucky BFPers!!! Is nice to come to mnet after a weekend of working to see some good news.

To those of you who got their AF, I think I shall be joining you very soon as I feel quite AFish. Not the cramps - having been through 2 pregnancies, I would have seen cramps as a sign of hope. Just emotional and fat and want to eat everything in sight. Plus forgive me if tmi, but my sweat smells different just before and just after start of AF.

So until AF turns up I am playing mind games with myself just to send myself completely loopy.

  • At work yesterday I decided that if I saw 5 pregnant women, I was in with a shot of being pregnant. Only saw 4.
  • My last cycle was 26 days so in theory I could have been due AF yesterday, but she didn't appear. Most cycles are 28 days so really she is due tomorrow. But still trying to convince myself I am 1 day late.
  • After my promises, I found a test in my drawer so did it on friday (I think). BFN. Was a 5 days early one from superdrug.

Off to watch OBEM USA on 4OD just to torture myself further.

Readynow · 11/07/2011 16:14

Just back from holiday so catching up on all the posts! Sorry for all those who fell off this bus & hopefully the next one will prove lucky!

I am about 3 days into the 2ww so am sure I will be symptom spotting like mad although will really try to be good this month & just relax - yeah right!! Anyone else still to test this month?

mungojerrie · 11/07/2011 18:11

Off to the next bus for me, gutted!!
Hope the last few are more lucky!!

Jebel · 11/07/2011 18:14

Ho hum, off the bus I go :(

Congrats to all those with BFPs, and fingers crossed for those still waiting!

BartletForAmerica · 12/07/2011 09:14

Hi, can I join in here too? A bit late, but better late than never, eh? Smile

Things might not happen quickly because I am still BFing my DS twice a day, but I think, based on an OPK, that I did ovulate this month. (My excuse is that I am a scientist and wanted to know what was happening. I had determined to be very chilled about all of this. Hmm.)

AF due about 20th/21st with a due date based on LMP on 29th March, but things might still be settling down.

Good luck to everyone testing today!
