Come join us on the July bus - with its assortment of good luck charms, lots of cake and hopefully a busload of BFPs.

Ninu I'm on 2ww now too. My date on the list will change to 7th July now as I oved later than expected. I'm determined not to test before then!
I had such a vivid dream about the arrival of #2 last night! I had a really easy labour and birth, and he was a little boy (called Bon for some reason)!

FoxMulder · 24/06/2013 08:23

Morning all. Good weekends?

Ugh, Monday mornings make me question whether this baby thing is such a good idea. I hate early mornings, I feel like shit! [grumpy]

Fox82 · 24/06/2013 09:39

Hey Becca I'm 7dpo too (if the ov signs were right) and been symptom spotting for about 6 days!!! When are you going to poas? I'm going to try and wait until next Monday

LeeHandy · 24/06/2013 09:54

catanddog, like I said I don't think I know enough about lps , but I think the pregnacare should cover it. Smile

it always amazes me everytime I think of how much money the baby and pregnancy industry make off us based on fear alone. Grin

LittleMachine · 24/06/2013 10:02

I'm taking vitamin b6 this cycle. I take agnus castus up to ovulation or my cycle would be months long. I don't have a short lp, but I start spotting at about 7dpo.

ChubbyKitty · 24/06/2013 10:54

Erm, slightly confused. I had egg whites (cm) yesterday, which St Google tells me is my body getting ready to ov. But surely this is a little early? I'm only 3 days off finishing AF, would it really happen that quickly? Would it be best for me to do an OPK this afternoon to see if there's anything going on?

LittleMachine · 24/06/2013 10:58

Would that make you about CD10 Kitty? I had ewcm 2 days before ov this cycle. Just say the same happens to you, you'd ov on CD12 which wouldn't be that unusual I would think.

All speculation of course. I think you should do an OPK.

ChubbyKitty · 24/06/2013 11:11

Ah rightio! I thought there would be a bigger gap between AF and ov. I don't know why I thought that.

I'm just waiting to need to go haha.

Redbug · 24/06/2013 11:32

Chubby how long is your cycle normally? I used to have a 27-ish day cycle and usually ov'd by about CD12 at the latest (I have quite a long luteal phase, at least 14 days, often 15 I think). Ovulation on CD10-12 isn't unreasonable I think.

I'm about 4DPO I reckon, but am away for the rest of this week so will be distracted, so will make it up to about 9DPO before I have time for much in the way of symptom spotting, thank goodness!

I have four kids in the house at the minute (relatives and my two), and it's really nice. Couldn't take it on a daily basis (three is going to be plenty, thanks), but it is rather nice having a busy house. Feeding everyone is something of a military operation though...

IWantOneNow · 24/06/2013 13:04

Well, I had a hectic weekend (OH family descended!) so I'm actually glad to be a work to get away from it all! (They leave today, phew)!

Chubby My friend got caught out by thinking she couldn't be right ov'ing that early, but when she realised she was, she changed her dtd timings and is now a proud mummy! So take note of what ur body is telling u and get dtd!! Smile

Beccadugs · 24/06/2013 13:04

Fox82 I am going to wait until next Wednesday (3rd) as AF will be three days late, so no chance of a slightly longer cycle...

Kitty I get EWCM for about 6 days pre ov, with the most two days before!!

AliBingo · 24/06/2013 14:13

Hi everyone, haven't had a chance to read the thread yet but please can I join you, having just recently been kicked off the June bus by AF. TTC#2, Cycle 2, BFP due 19th July.

lindamagoo · 24/06/2013 14:53

Hey ladies, that's us on our way home from the caravan, had a fab time, worn out now. Hope you all had a great weekend Smile

Hello to all the newbies, nice to see the bus getting so full Smile

FoxMulder · 24/06/2013 15:01

And did you get much shagging in, Linda?

lindamagoo · 24/06/2013 16:15

Lol Fox, we sure did, luckily for us the caravan was right infront of some woods and for the first time ever we did it in the midst of a thunder storm, it was quite exciting Smile

DisneyDiva87 · 24/06/2013 16:21

Ha! You dirty wee hussy Londa Wink

If you get your bfp this month you'll have to name the baby after something outdoorsy.

lindamagoo · 24/06/2013 16:38

Hehe, that's a good idea Dosney, it'll have to be a cool one, not letting the oh pick the name though, was an awful lot of jaggy nettles and he said if its a boy he's getting called prick, lol Smile

DisneyDiva87 · 24/06/2013 16:55

Was beginning to despair at opk's and that I'd never get a 2nd line but just got a faint one today so ov is imminent! Woop.

DisneyDiva87 · 24/06/2013 17:01

I'm trying to think of a plant name that would double as a human name. Can't think of any; maple, fir, sycamore, chestnut. Na, not going to work.

blueamber · 24/06/2013 17:06

Forest! Don't like the name myself, but it couldn't be more fitting Smile

lindamagoo · 24/06/2013 17:08

We will call it Storm, lol... Got a little bit of spotting today so ov is just around the corner and I'm excited this month coz I've got EWCM aswell Smile don't usually get it that's why we got the conceive plus, pretty positive for now, might not be the same when the 2ww arrives though Hmm

lindamagoo · 24/06/2013 17:10

Haha blue, forest would be quite fitting but yeah I don't like it either. If I get a bfp this month I'll be all over the Internet looking for bizarre names, lol

apprenticemamma · 24/06/2013 17:53

Linda I'm absolutely loving your work!!!!!Think we should begin a competition on July bus for shagging in non conventional places? That'll keep the ladies in the fertile window and the smeppers motivatedWink . I'm on 2ww but oh is continuing to request frequent shagging, he doesn't get that we are meaNt to be in the recovery phase bless him Grin . In fact AF due by Wednesday. I've had a couple of ominous stomach creaky vibes so I am not v hopeful although I tell myself that this will mean I can simply enjoy more wine on holiday in France in a fortnight. I'm even telling myself that this will provide a nice back drop for egg fertilisation (fertilisation d'oeuf? !!)Wink

lovelygreen · 24/06/2013 19:29

Evening All,
Caravan holidays suddenly seeming more appealing!! We have plain old camping planned for August but with all the positive July Bus thinking I'll be we'll knocked up by then...

Might be obsessing (definitely) but just read that antihisthamines can mess with fertility?!? Please can someone tell me this is rubbish? Been on daily antihisthamines the whole time ttc.

Hope everyone's having a nice evening x

lindamagoo · 24/06/2013 20:56

lovely I hope that's not true coz I've been taking them for a couple of months too, google here I come, lol
