NEW BUS BOARDING FOR JUNE 2012

[desperateoldie67]

Struck out this month...anyone care to join me on the June 2012 bus?

Welcome Zombie!! Previous pg all I felt early on was extreme tiredness,extreme randiness would have been nicer but then I never got the 2nd trimester horniness either...

I was so tempted to not wait a cycle after mc but did and it feels like I wasted so much time as AF took long to reappear (was expecting a march baby and this trying for a June baby is my 1st attempt post mc) so good on you for going with your gut.

Sorry to hear some AF's have appeared.

I am TTC baby #2.

My last period was 1/9/11, since my period ended I have been using Clearblue Digital Ovulation Testing Kit, which came back as a smiley face so been having fun with hubby :D

Now just have to wait to see if my period appears on 3rd October... fingers crossed!!!

Hi zombie, nice name .

Ok, so after moaning that I have no symptoms to speak of, yadda yadda, I popped to the loo before going for a run at lunch and it appears that a) I'm spotting or b) AF is starting much earlier than expected.

EEk!

Then spent the whole run wondering if I should really be running at all

Not sure what to think. It would be wierd if it was AF as the earliest I was expecting it was this coming Monday. Also I had EWCM a week later than I thought I would be oving, which led me to expect AF then a week later too. Also, it's reddish pink watery CM which isn't how my AF normally starts. Oh, and also I don't have cramps like normal either (can you tell I really don't want it to be AF?!)

It appears that my cycles are totally screwed though, so I don't wanna get my hopes up too much as it could well be a period.

The big question: should I test earlier than Monday...?!?!?

Oh and hi milk too good luck with the 2WW - you're in good company here!

LouLou - that sounds like implantation bleeding to me possibly - without wanting to sound perverse, could you describe it a little more for me?? Have you checked since you came back from your run?? Spotting from implantation should only be shortlived!

If it is implantation bleeding then it will still take hcg a few days to build up in your urine so Monday is still probably your best bet if you want to avoid a BFN!! Sounds really promising though - I am a little bit excited for you :)

Ok TMI disclaimer

Just checked again... thought it'd stopped but had a bit of a dab around and it's still going but not much (can only see by dabbing quite hard). It was watery and a very light pink. Now it's bright red. Still not like the start of an AF for me though, normally it's darker, thicker and a bit 'clotty' (eeww I know, sorry!) This is just like fresh blood.

Will try to leave it till Monday but might go insane over the weekend... i'll probably be a BFN though won't it, so I might as well just wait.

Typically, we were planning an early 'no SWI' sex night tonight to make up for all the pressurised SWI we've been doing lately. Hmph. What do I tell DP? Don't want to get his hopes up but definitely not up for any action :(

Thanks very much GTR I particularly like SWI . . . no least because it's so much more fun than SWOI.

So it looks like everyone is peeing together on a variety of sticks on Monday. I WANT TO PEE ON A STICK! But I have a 4ww instead of a 2ww, which seems unfair.

I also sipped at DH's whiskey and coke last night and it tasted like meths (perhaps it was meths) . . . BUT usually I like whiskey and coke. Maybe it's a GOOD SIGN! Clutching at straws anyone? [hmmm]

Right LouLou - I don't think that its AF because firstly it's not normal for you and secondly it's way to early for AF like bleeding if you are due on Monday. If you have a normal 14 day LP then it most certainly could be implantation as this normally takes place between 6 and 10 dpo. That blood is fresh as well!

I think be honest with DP and tell him what is going on because it most definitely could be the start of something beautiful! If you can't hold out until Monday to test though, I think you should at least wait until Saturday, just to give your kidneys a chance to produce the hcg! :)

Zombie meth tasting whiskey - sounds good to me as a potential sign; anything that doesn't taste as it normally does when TTC is a good sign in my humble opinion!! How many dpo are you??

Ah zombie, you'll fit in well here...

Anything which might suggest upduffness on here is always a Good Sign. We might feign scepticism but any Good Signs are suggestive of a BFP and therefore a possible Symptom .

You could take mine and GTR's psycho lead and try POAOS (peeing on an ov stick) instead as substitute for the real deal. Might help you to know when the best time to SWI is too?

Or in my case, the best time to not SWI as i never get a sodding positive on them - still pee on them all the same though

I feel really dizzy and i have sharp pains in my abdominal area!! Bloody body! CP is really really high as well

I am guessing that's days post ovulation . . . (this is great, it's like reading a Clockwork Orange)

I am not certain when I ovulated, but prior to mc was practicing natural family planning, so am very familiar with the signs. I think it's 12 days as I had a high, open cervix and lots of egg-white mucus. HOWEVER, that came the same day as the very last dregs of the mc bleeding stopped, so there's always a chance everything's just a bit screwed up in my baby making apparatus. :)

You guessed correctly :)

Sorry to hear of your mc but fx for a nice new shiny BFP!! High and open sounds like ov to me and i have heard some women get pg almost straight away after an mc (some don't though)

You're right, there's no way I could not tell DP, and have been keeping him upated with all (well most - don't want to freak him out tooo much) of my forays into figuring out my cycle so it's only fair he's updated of the latest developments

GTR, still getting pains hmmm... looks like we finally have symptoms to spot!!

C'mon kidneys, get working if you're going to make some hormones!!

Yes and this dizziness, seriously do not feel well at all!! And i have a networking event for work tonight that i can't get out of!!

I think you should talk to your kidneys and tell them to get procuding quicker!! I mean, you could test in the morning with FMU and see if there is a faint line!?!?! But be warned that there might be nothing!! I think if the spotting stops then you should def test!!! :)

Ha! Now you're being a POAS facilitator GTR!!! :o

Well, looking at my chart on FF - I think I am due on tomorrow or Sat so I might POAS tomorrow. If I'm not pg, then my body is playing some excellent tricks on me.

psychoness symptoms so far include: exhaustion, nausea, heartburn, dizziness when hungry, emotional ridiculousness, wet noo noo, bloating, headaches, weeing a lot. Honestly, do my psycho-somatics have to be so damn textbook?!!!

Loulou; your potential implantation bleeding is VERY exciting!!

Hi zombie

Oh and hello milk!! :o

My word ladies this thread has gone MAD!!!!!!!!!!( looking at GTR and Loulou)
Welcome ZB sorry for your loss, but glad you found us and glad you got stuck back in there!( i couldnt face it for a while and so waited a month)
also welcome MILK, fingers crossed for your BFPs!!
Hi festie - still no AF and still refuse to POAS!!!! holding off till weekend!!!!
am thinking if my cycle can just change all of a sudden so maybe my dates was off?
Sorry Popcorn - dont think youll be alone on the AF front for long!!!!
yeh still in for a June baba!!!
Deelite - fingers crosssed for you also!
Disco - we are always waiting around here, fertile dates, lines on ov-ing tests, cm signs, 2 ww, and the 2 lines on a test!!!!! yep but we do it over and over again!
Loulou - Thanks its only because i dont fancy buying another one and it being wasted!but not long now!!!!

had banging head all day! so trying not to think about it as another sign but more of a stress headache!!!!! boooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

louloubellamozzarella, thank you :) I hate this waiting around :( Just cook your DP a great big meal- then he'll be too full to have sex :D

zombiebanana, you have 4ww :O that super sucks!

festiemum and Mama5isalive, hello :)

sorry ladies!!

Welcome to all those I forgot to welcome in my haste to POAS for LouLou!!! Hope you all get your BFPs this month/cycle :)

The way it's going I'll still be here next September

Milk - great idea, that always works with my DH - he's no use to me at all when he's had a good meal!!! :o

I've had a quick word with my kidneys and have told them to get their act together. Bleeding seems to have stopped so it's looking like it could be implantation bleeding. EEEe! Ok that's all the excitement I'll let myself do until I've POAS and not doing that till hmmm Saturday Monday .

Festie, those symptoms are so textbook - honestly... They do sound promising though - those are pretty decisive symptoms, not just achy boobs eh...

Milk excellent tip re feeding man!! Why did I never think of this before?! This could come in very useful... not that I'm a sex dodger but handy for those times when he's horny and I'm plain erm just shattered and needing a cup of tea :)

Have actually told DP and he's a little bit excited, I can tell. Albeit a little confused. I think he's only just got his head around periods, let alone any bleeding aside from that...

Mama, still going with not POAS, see! You're doing well, not long now.

Sooo pleased it's nearly the end of the week!!! But really can't be arsed with Friday - do we really have to have another day in the week?

Ohhh crap it.
So...not only am I going to be obsessing about when I'm ovulating...

Are you seriously telling me I'm going to be examining every single physical sign I happen to be emitting for the next 2 weeks afterwards.

Seriously?

Man, I am too much of a sucker for this. I have no impulse control. I am already a hypochondriac. I'm going to be on this board 24/7 telling everyone about my knickers.

louloubellamozzarella- I suggest making a roast dinner- super easy :D just stick a chicken in the oven with some cut up potatoes :D

As for having another day in the week... I have 2 days as my DH is working on Saturday this week :'(

welcome to all who have boarded!

well if the metformin has done its duty then I will not be due AF until the 30th :( if it hasnt then lawd knows when i will be due :( :(

Hi lydia.... erm yep! Time to get acquainted with that cotton strip in your knickers CM is now your friend hopes lydia hasn't scarpered from wierdy words

Erm well if you want to obsess, this is the place you can do it without driving your RL friends/DP round the bend or even without telling anyone else at all. But obsessing not essential, we only ask you have a likign for abbreviations and a healthy interest in baby making :)

sweetpb hope the drugs work out for you...can I ask what metformin is and why you're taking it (sorry for cluelessness!)?
