The first bus is almost full up so lets all transfer on to this new shiny bus!!

The sun is out, the sky is blue, the birds are singing their songs... Now lets get some BFPs! Grin

Lol kittykat01 you just made my day with this "Fingers crossed and legs uncrossed for august" Grin

FoxMulder · 09/07/2013 14:10

I just went to an impromptu swim in the lake on my lunch break Grin. But now my underwear is soggy. I hope no-one needs to use my chair...

AliBingo · 09/07/2013 14:26

Great to see all the BFPs already!

Not sure whether to stay or hop over to the shiny new August bus as I don't think I ovulated this month, according to CBFM, so we didn't DTD at the right time, gah.

Back to SMEP next month I think.

kittykat01 · 09/07/2013 14:38

glad i made you giggle LoveWine! :)

anyone think less sex might be better though?
I normally have more sex than a prostitute in my hope to get a BFP but so far nothing. The month i conceived that sadly ended in mmc we only had sex once around ovulation and bingo. I think it was because there was a build of sperm.

any thoughts... ?

DisneyDiva87 · 09/07/2013 14:41

AliBingo I'm straddling both buses -ouch!-

Hi All,

Congratulations to all the BFP's so far. Although I feel sure that we are due another one now.
And sorry for all the people that AF arrived for. I hope that August is your month.

I'm on my second cycle off the pill. I think i've been slightly better on the symptom spotting than last month when I convinced myself that I was preggo, but I am starting to google every last ailment. It doesn't help that you can literally put in any symptom followed by an 'e' and google will automatically populate early pregnancy in the search box!! So far I've had teeth sensitivity on 7dpo, headaches 7-10dpo, my boobs have been getting increasingly more veins and little spot things on my nipples, and last night I had sharp pains to the left of my belly button that I have put down to implantation pains, but are probably due to the fact i'm currently a bit constitpated. I'm an absolute treat at the moment.

Currently 10 dpo, so will poas on Friday I think.

xx

FoxMulder · 09/07/2013 15:14

That's pretty patient, impatiently Grin. I'm 10DPO today too and would be peeing on a stick right now if I had one.

Well, not RIGHT now. A bit inappropriate in the middle of the office maybe...

AliBingo · 09/07/2013 15:18

kitty I think you may have a point - my last pregnancy (which also didn't result in a baby unfortunately) we only DTD once around ovulation time, day 14 I think it was.

Disney that sounds painful but I may follow suit!

seatfor5 · 09/07/2013 17:13

:( sorry to hear that Linda although its not over till AF arrives.

Disney :(

Was sure you to would get BFP this month

Another BFN this morning for me so at 12DPO i think I must be out so just waiting for AF and reserving a seat on the August bus

onelittlepiglet · 09/07/2013 17:48

Finally got my cross hairs now so I'm 3 dpo and bored already! Don't think that we will be lucky this month despite trying hard. I don't know why, just a feeling. Might reserve a seat on the August bus.

Writerwannabe83 · 09/07/2013 18:29

How many dpo do people leave it before they start to POAS????

gillywillywoo · 09/07/2013 18:31

Hi writer... At least 10 if you can wait that long!!Grin

OP posts:
gillywillywoo · 09/07/2013 18:35

I try to wait until at least 1-2 days before AF is due. So 12-13 DPO.
But if I have tests in the house I will test earlier!

OP posts:
Writerwannabe83 · 09/07/2013 18:45

I can't wait to be able to POAS!!

It must be the most amazing, yet nervous and scary feeling!!!!

gillywillywoo · 09/07/2013 18:56

Hmmmm the novelty wears off after a few months of ttc Grin

OP posts:
Writerwannabe83 · 09/07/2013 19:52

lol.

I have taken about 4 tests during the last 14 years of my life, all of which I had been praying for a negative result!!

It will feel so strange now to take a test and desperately want it to be positive!!!

panicmechanic · 09/07/2013 19:56

feeling bit blah - I am sure i missed my window again :(( got smiley face and dtd. DH was ill for next two days :(((( Now going away to Japan on business until Sunday - :(((

Pixie001 · 09/07/2013 20:06

I WANT TO POAS!!! Smile
Af due tomorrow. Got stupid af symptoms tho I think so can't decide what to do...

Writerwannabe83 · 09/07/2013 20:08

POAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BartBaby · 09/07/2013 20:15

writer i agree with gilly that the novelty does definately wear off. The feeling you get when you so want it to be positive, and then no line appears, becomes almost soul destroying! Yet i still have this excited feeling before i do one. I normally start doing the internet cheapy ones quite early on, from about 10dpo it was 8dpo this month even though i knew it was pointless! I find it easier to be disappointed early on rather than get my hopes up as the days go on just to be disappointed anyway lol.

Hi Ladies,
Sadly after last Tuesdays bfp I have had a lot of bleeding today (spotting yesterday) with some clots and have been told by the GP to be prepared that I've miscarried. I have been referred for a scan next week when I will be 6 weeks just to check there is nothing there. I'm so devastated Sad . 8 months ttc. 2 weeks ago I thought I would never get pregnant, last week I was over the moon and this week heart broken. A rollercoaster of feelings. I did another pregnancy test this afternoon and the line was so faint it was hardly there. I'm suprised how quickly the hcg has gone down.
I imagine I will be on the August bus if cycles kick in again fairly quickly so see some of you there, though not too many of you I hope (in a nice way of course!)

BartBaby · 09/07/2013 20:24

Im very sorry to hear that marie There is nothing i can say to make you feel better. But we are thinking of you and are here if you need to vent or anything Flowers

seatfor5 · 09/07/2013 20:28

lindamagoo · 09/07/2013 20:35
