Ding ding

AF arrive last night. Not unexpected as didn't DTD! Kind of helps when TTC.

Congrats to all those with BFP's.

chookford · 08/10/2012 12:53

33 really sorry to hear that the witch arrives... fx for Nov!

blargl yeah I am in the same boat.. I keep getting cross with my dh as in my opinion we are not dtd enough, due to him being tired or working late blah blah.... its really beginning to p*ss me off now! Good to hear I am not alone in my hubby bashing though!!

littlepinkfizz · 08/10/2012 12:58

Aw 33 sorry to hear you got an unwelco e visitor but there's always the November bus to travel on, so all is not lost, but it is awful. Your whole world feels as if it's ended for a while, even if, as you said it wasn't u expe ted < hugs>

woody17 · 08/10/2012 13:31

blargl I've been exactly with same with DH. I have now explained to him about ov sticks and he now wants to now when I get the smiley so we can definitely dtd every day around that time.

33 sorry your af arrived

hi can i hop on board!
Ive been lurking over these last few months.
I had a bfp at end of aug which didnt tie up with af dates and something didnt feel right so after googling and reading diff threads on here i suspected that it had been a chemical pregnancy or something and sure enough i tested a week later to see if cb digi had gone up (was saying 1 -2 wks ) but it came bak bfn and af started next day! then the next cylce was 19 days so managed to have 2 af's in sept :( poas stick a couple more times over those few weeks just to make sure and they were all bfn's (was irationally concerned about eptopic)
Am now on 3dpo ( i think!) had period type cramps 3 days ago so assuming that is ovulation! we dtd lots around this time so hoping 1 stuck!!
so am hoping for a bfp around 20th.

33PinkLadyApple · 08/10/2012 16:49

aaaw thanks ladies. Think H2B now knows how much it means to me to have a baby as I blathered on about how nice it would have been to put scan picture in xmas card for folks when I'd had a bottle glass of wine and that because he was moody git, we've missed that boat. I'm off to get on the Nov BFP bus but I'll keep my ticket for this one and see how you all get on if that's OK...

OveranxiousUnderated · 08/10/2012 18:07

BFN for me today Sad so gutted. I just knew I wasn't though, as last time (before MC) I just KNEW, and my boobs hurt whereas this cycle they are absolutely fine. This was our second month of trying since MC so I am hoping it is going to be 3rd time lucky next month!! Just got to wait for AF to turn up now, she was due today but no signs yet, I am expecting her arrival by Weds.

Good luck to everybody else still on board. Smile

woody17 · 08/10/2012 21:00

Sorry overanxiousunderated - fx for next month.

PurpleGeekyGirl · 08/10/2012 21:17

Congrats to the new bfps Grin and non mn hugs to those who af has got. I'm officially in the tww now as on cd14. Not sure I ovd but had EWCM on CDs 8&9 and dtd on cd 11, 12 & 14 (Grin!!) but bf back at his place now so hope that was enough and not too late given cm last week. Am trying hard to chill this month tho so will not be SS much and certainly not testing before 24 Oct Wink

chookford · 09/10/2012 08:41

Over am so sorry to hear you got a bfn... booooooo to bfn's!!! fx Nov will be a good month for all that are out in Oct.

purple will keep everything crossed for you!!!!

wavesandsmiles · 09/10/2012 11:12

Keeping fx for all passengers remaining on the bus. I am pretty sure AF is on the way, but pretty ok with that - its only cycle 1 post coil, and at least I will have more of an idea of cycle length now.

We have bought our new house this morning, and have lots of work to do on it over the next few weeks/months, so probably better, for DH in particular, if I am feeling super energetic as opposed to permanently knackered/nauseous for now.

PurpleGeekyGirl · 09/10/2012 13:21

OMG, very exciting news which I need to share but can't on FB or BF will kill me lol! (no not a BFP!!) but his house has had an offer which hopefully means that he'll be moved in with me by xmas so sooooooooo much easier for baby making plans than living 60 miles apart from each other. Please please PLEASE let the drains survey show everything is OK (it should do) so the sale can go through smoothly!!

waves congrats on your house purchase Smile

LexiLoganberry · 09/10/2012 13:34

I was due to test today but tested yesterday as my pt said it was as effective yesterday as it would be today, got a BFN unfortunatly, AF due today but haven't had any cramping yet although it's only half way through the day.

Really don't think I am pregnant this month.

Sits moodly looking out of window, don't want to get off bus yet Sad

chookford · 09/10/2012 14:06

Waves congrats on the move.. happy baby making in your new pad (if you arent already pg!)

Purple WOOO HOOOO will be much easier to plan things when your living together!

Lexi come sit here at the back I have doughnuts and I am not afraid to use them... its not over until the witch arrives will keep everything crossed that it is just a shy bfp!

blargl · 09/10/2012 14:17

thanks woody and chookford, it's good to know others feel the same way!

I did tell DH I was feeling a bit upset about it last night and I think he took the hint! Also think I have some EWCM today which would fit with OV being on sat or sun. Going to start the clearblue digi oks tomorrow. I'm weirdly excited about it.

chookford · 10/10/2012 12:00

Afternoon ladies...

How are we all doing today? It is very quiet on here! Hmm

TakingTheStairs · 10/10/2012 12:25

RARRRRRGGGGHHHH

Just trying to make a bit of noise to blow the cobwebs away ;)

How are things with you chookford? Any update?

JellyCurls · 10/10/2012 12:38

Hello Ladies, how are we all doing this wednesday lunchtime. I am on day 40 (or 47) of a normally 32 day cycle??? Its def a weird cycle post cp in August. Lots of cramping and again cm today (tmi but its been absent for about a week or more now) so not sure whats going on.

Had all the symptoms of ov around the 19th and cramps around time I would have thought AF was due but she didnt appear and still getting bfn. DH says not to worry these things take time (which I know) but am going to take myself off to GP on Friday if the witch hasnt arrived before then.

Oh and although I am on healthy eating I am now off to the chocolate machine, anyone want anything?

chookford · 10/10/2012 13:51

lol nice rarghhhhhhh Taking Grin I am ok thank you... no nothing much going on with me but have moved myself right down the list so am now due to test end of month as think I ovulated alot later than I thought I would so hopefully will get a bfp end of Oct but I am not holding out much hope may be joining you on the Nov bus soon! (please tell me there is cake on that bus?!)

jelly can I have a Double Decker please? I am stressed at work so calling out the big guns!!! Hope it all goes ok at docs friday and that witch stays away!!

JellyCurls · 10/10/2012 15:02

Sorry chookford rubbish vending machine with no chocolate and no crisps. Machine must know I am on healthy eating Note to self to bring own emergency rations tomorrow. Also no GP appointments for Friday so if I consider my need to get an answer "urgent" I can call for emergency appointment on Friday am. And no bookable appointments for next week as its the school holidays. Not sure how that relates to GP working hours but who I am to argue with the knowledgable nosey receptionist!!!

TakingTheStairs · 10/10/2012 15:05

Not enough cake chookford on the November bus, maybe you'll visit just to bring cake?

Boo to no doc appointment jellycurls, that must be very frustrating.

OP posts:
JellyCurls · 10/10/2012 15:26

Very annoying taking but its the norm for here. I am all hopefull now as am once again getting sharp jaggy pains in the ovary region. Home tonight to check if my saliva is ferning and then convince DH that tonight might be a good night to dtd.

chookford · 10/10/2012 16:03

Ahhhh Jelly that is no vending machine! No chocolate or crisps indeed!! Boooo to the docs too that's like here though unless your leg is hanging off you don't qualify as urgent! Fx it's all systems go tonight!

taking sure I can russle up something I have made a raspberry cheesecake today that any good?!
