Well I am dusting down the drivers seat and kick starting the April bus for those the BFP fairy missed on the lucky Mad March bus. Fingers crossed the destination for this one is 'Baby Central'.

How exciting! A positive on opk just now :) DTD tues and last night and will DTD again tonight. Do we need to DTD again tomorrow? Should we just keep going lol?

LoveWine · 05/04/2013 13:30

Hi everyone. Can I join you in the two week wait? I only recently started TTC and I have already become obsessed. I am sitting at work reading through mumsnet posts instead of focusing on my work like I should.

Anyways, here are my stats:

LoveWine ttc#1, cycle 2, bfp due on 11th April

Oh yeah, and I love wine! Smile

MrsAVB · 05/04/2013 15:15

gilly and penny - I think, (presuming you like it Smile), just do it lots! And don't stress about when to do it. But then I am not pregnant and never have been. I've heard others - who will hopefully be along to offer more useful advice, say that little swimmers are at their best with a couple of days in between but not sure how true that is. Also don't stop boffing when you think your fertile period is over as I don't think any apps or sticks or thermometers can predict absolutely everything. But then I am very much in the not very helpful laid back school and don't use any of them.
Hi lovewine, great name Smile
Xxx

Springbells · 05/04/2013 15:38

zeuixeppe thanks for the advice. Was considering it, will have to look into it. Hope the line gets darker Grin

bajas hope you get a positive in a couple of days.

Will check back in near the end of the month, to see how many bfps. Gotta beat march bus! Grin

Wine
Bajas · 05/04/2013 15:54

Af just arrived so that's me off this bus just in time for a few drinks on weekend away.

Good luck to those still awaiting bfp

Zeuxippe · 05/04/2013 16:16

Boo to af bajas. Hurray to drinks though, hope you have a good weekend and lots of fun to take your mind off ttc.

LoveWine · 05/04/2013 16:52

(Dry) Cheers to everyone!

How do you ladies get your mInds off TTC?? Movies, work, hobbies? Please give me some ideas because cycle 2 is way too early to be this obsessed.

Hugs to everyone who got a visit from AF this week. Look at it in the bright side, at least you can have a proper glass of wine now!

gillywillywoo · 05/04/2013 16:54

Updated list! hello new passengers and sorry to the ladies who have been unlucky this month with AF rearing her ugly head.

littlepinkfizz · 05/04/2013 18:35

gilly I'd probably Dtd every other day fom now until about 10 days before AF due. That should cover things plus a wee rest from Dtd every day Grin

Fairypants · 05/04/2013 18:37

Hi there, can I join? Just started (hopefully!) final af so will be going for it soon!
Stats are..
Fairypants ttc#3, cycle 1, bfp due 28th April
Good luck all!

lisbapalea · 05/04/2013 20:04

Can I just ask what everyone's doing about drinking alcohol when TTC? I have been drinking "normally", which is less than when I was uni, but more than a pregnant person! Prob 1 glass a couple of nights a week, and a few more glasses if we are out for dinner or have friends over.

AF's due next weekend - no symptoms whatsoever so far but just wondering if I should feel guilty for having a couple of glasses in front of TV tonight?

I don't really want to abstain completely as who knows how long this process will take! Just wondered what everyone else is doing!

padster75 · 05/04/2013 20:07

The BFP Birthday bus for May is now leaving the depot (birthday bus because it's my birthday 1-2 days before the BFP is due ...... I wonder)

OP posts:
HogwartsIsHome · 05/04/2013 20:11

hello! can I join in? TTC since 18th March when I had implant removed, so not really sure when to expect a BFP but hoping for an April or May :) no nasty AF as yet Grin so I shall decline some wine Sad

HogwartsIsHome · 05/04/2013 20:13

lisbapalea i have ceased all drinking mean OH made me just in case

ELA88 · 05/04/2013 20:25

lisbapalea I've been drinking less that normal but I've been on holiday this week so had a couple of glasses of wine on a few nights. AF is due today though so I'm going to poas before I go out for my birthday next weekend, that will be my decider on how much I shall drink (if at all!) that is if AF doesn't get to me first! Xxx

lisbapalea · 05/04/2013 20:31

Thanks all.

We're off to visit friends this weekend who we have a track record of being fairly boozy with, which is what has prompted my question..

I will definitely try to summmon up some willpower to take a cautious approach given I am theoretically in the 2WW, even if I am symptom-less!

LoveWine · 05/04/2013 20:42

I only tend to drink when AF is here. I try to avoid it in the fertile days as I have read that alcohol makes the "environment" too acidic and unfriendly for the swimmers.

If I'm out with friends and don't want them to ask questions, I ask the bar tender to make me a virgin mojito so it looks like I'm drinking. Lame, I know...the things you do when TTC!

Fairypants · 05/04/2013 21:13

We'll I haven't been in that position yet but my intention is to not drink from fertile time to af just in case but can't promise that's how it'll work out. Dds were not planned so haven't done a 2ww yet.

lucieloos · 06/04/2013 08:48

Well after poas yesterday AF has now arrived early so I'm out :( Off to join the May bus. Good luck everyone!
