Well, as Bleats so kindly started the last one I thought it only fair to take my share of the driving Grin

Let's keep the positive vibe going ladies, we may be off the May minibus but we're definitely not defeated so bring the Wine, Brew and BiscuitBiscuitBiscuit, hold onto your seats and let's get this baby mobile started

MyCatLikesToHideInBoxes (37) ttc#2 AF due 28th Sept (ish)

SmileI'm trying to not get too excited till I've bought a new test and done it when my AF is late (thurs) fx it's true but also don't know what I'm gonna do about my best friends baby. Will just have to cross my legs and travel to meet it!

AstroNess · 26/09/2011 12:48

That's so exciting. Roll on Thursday!

The most exciting thing that has happened to me today is that I tried dried prunes for the first time. It was not a great experience but something tells me it was a good idea to buy the value pack! Wink

Oh, and GP appointment now booked for tomorrow.

Ok so blood gone completely now. Going to resist doing another test now until THURSDAY (AF due Weds).

I'm not daring to think it might have been implantation (but ALL the signs - no cramps, small amount of old blood, about a week before AF due).

Please help me resist until Thurs...

I'm tempted to pull my luggage out of the hold on the July flight...

Mersea · 26/09/2011 13:14

Bleats sorry AF arrived, I felt the same a couple of months ago and took a bit of time out. fx for you Dairy It's all getting very exciting!! AF is due Thursday. It would be nice if I do get a BFP this month as conception would have happened whilst on holiday in France and at the time of a full moon! I know that sounds silly and anytime will be great but you know it just seemed a bit more special.

harmonyb23 · 26/09/2011 13:17

Hi Everyone! Got +ve OPK today so going to jump on DP once he gets home from work the children go to bed! Congrats to those with BFP's and FX for next month for those who AF has decided to descend upon.

I have lost some weight this month 12 pounds in last couple of weeks and am hoping this will increase our chances of conceiving, does anyone know if this is likely?

HorseyGirl1 · 26/09/2011 14:01

thanks MyCat, just a nice quiet day on Sat - which suited me fine. Had a glass of wine and a glass of Peach Snapps with Lemonade as obv not pregnant! Tempting Fate, tempting Fate - go on Fate do your worst! Just waiting to see what happens. Was a complete wreck yesterday so prob AF symptom. Sorry Dalrymps - that sucks. Also hugs to Dogwalker, it will go in quicker than you think, and to Crystal and to Golden xx

Dalrymps · 26/09/2011 14:15

Ooh hero we can be POAS buddies.. If I can resist peeing on any more till then!Grin

hickorydick · 26/09/2011 15:00

I POAS this morning and still didn't believe it so I bought a digital to make triple sure and there it was - 'pregnant 1-2'. I'm still pretty stunned.

Good luck to the rest of you! I'm hoping there's lots more BFPs on this bus :)

Mersea · 26/09/2011 15:14

Congrats hickory Grin starting to losing track of everything going on and where everyone was on the original list Confused

AstroNess · 26/09/2011 15:34

hickory that is fabulous news! Another graduate. Sounds like you did exactly what I did. So much more reassuring to see it in writing isn't it.

Can't wait to join you on the pregnancy boards.

Good luck to everyone else.

Katiekatiekatekate · 26/09/2011 15:49

Hi! Just thought I'd pop by, and I see that some congrats are already in order! Well done Astro and hickory :)

I still have a week to wait but I'm a real antsy pants this month, I've already bought tests (the expensive ones as well, doh) and am sitting on my hands trying to convince myself that the tests that say they have a 55% accuracy rate 5 days before your period's due do NOT mean that in my case they will most likely be 100% accurate 7 days early.

Oh madness.... hope you're all keeping your sanity better than I am :o

MaryQueenOfSpots · 26/09/2011 15:57

Hi I am wondering I can join the queue for the bus.

AF due 3rd October.

I am so bad tempered - I just want to knooooowwww !

Congrats to the graduates. Smile hope I'll be with you.

MaryQueenOfSpots · 26/09/2011 15:58

Oh and I have been ttc for past 6 months so getting a bit cold at this bus stop. Sad

Whysoserious · 26/09/2011 18:19

Wow congrats hickory and looks like we could have a couple more graduates in dalrymps and hero...hope so ladies! Great news!!

Sorry AF has arrived Bleats Sad I hope you feel a bit better after a break.

I still have AF - 9 days later!! That ain't right surely? And it's quite heavy still - showing no sign of going. I'm going to make a docs apt as it has been an odd one. Although I am quite stressed with work so maybe because of that.

Been having to do wee wee tests for CBFM everyday for the last 3 days. Have a feeling I will be ovulating this weekend (if af effs off!!) and bloomin typical DH is away.

I'm going to chill though - if it happens it happens. I'm going to enjoy the rest of 2011 as a child free young(ish) person . Que sera sera and all that Wink

Whysoserious · 26/09/2011 18:21

BTW harmony well done on your weight loss!! 12lbs in 2 weeks! I bet you look and feel great Smile

crystaltea36 · 26/09/2011 19:08

Katiekatiekatekate - Our AF is due the same day, I've had no symptoms, not even convinced we SWI at the right time, but am hoping we did! I'm getting a bit impatient too, have got an early response test but think it's probably too early considering no symptoms?
Hum.. hate all this!
Congrats hickory! Any tips?!

What an up and down day on the minibus...

Sad So sorry to see you go Bleats and that you're feeling so down... I really hope the bus break does you the world of good and that you get your bfp soon.

Grin Great news from you though hickory and Dalrymps your news is sounding good too - I can't believe you have the willpower to wait until thursday to test again.

Welcome also to Mary and well done on the weight loss harmony- ' I've been really struggling to stick to my diet whilst ttc so kudos to you, that's impressive and I'm sure it will help with ttc!

MaryQueenOfSpots · 26/09/2011 20:33

Thanks MyCat, I feel better for a good ole moan. Poor DH is getting it in the neck!

Keeping fingers crossed for everyone who is POAS in the next few days [smile}

GoldenDaffodil · 26/09/2011 21:06

Hickory Congratulations! Your news has cheered me up now end, I'm so happy for you.

Dalrymps I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for your next update. this bus is more exciting than any soap you get on tv!

Hello to Mary and well done to Harmony on your fabulous weight loss.

Why I hope AF disappears soon and you're getting the hang of the CBFM. Although I have yet to get a bfb I find the monitor so much easier than temperature charting.

Such a busy bus! If AF arrives tomorrow I'll be sad to step off as you're such a lovely bunch.

heroinahalfshell · 26/09/2011 21:08

AF in full flow :( I'm well and truly off at the next stop.

Do I calculate first day today or Sat when started spotting?

MaryQueenOfSpots · 26/09/2011 21:31

Heroinahalfshell I'm sorry to hear that unwelcome visitor AF has come around to see you. All I can suggest is a consoling glass of wine. Treat yourself to some unpasteurised cheese tomorrow Smile

Damn the witch hero - I was sure you were destined for the graduate list. Hope the next bus brings you better luck - I'm getting a few grumblings myself so I may see you on there soon.

OP posts:
WhiteRose75 · 26/09/2011 22:30

Congratulations to you to who reached the right stop - hoping I might be getting off soon. We couldn't SWI last weekend as hubbie was away - very bad timing - but think I was still ovulating earlier this week so plenty SWIU since his return.

icooksocks · 26/09/2011 22:41

Congrats to all with bfps.
I have a question to ask, since I came off the pill, during my apparent fertile time (just calendar charting at the mo) I'm bleeding after swi, it's not something that's ever happened before Confused,should I be worried?
