You say your cycle isn't regular so it's possible that you're ovulating? I assumed these tests were actually correct otherwise there's not much point in buying them, but maybe I'm naive :)

MissYamabuki · 31/07/2013 21:22

Congratulations Vikki and Ninu! Flowers

Anybody else bloated and weepy?? Am in the middle of making a dress for DD and realised it's going to be too small for her (apparently she needs the 5-6 years size for the bodice?? Hmm she's a thin 2.5year old FFS). Got ridiculously upset and frustrated and now I just want to put the whole thing in the bin.

I do realise I sound unreasonable Sad

Gemski5 · 31/07/2013 21:28

Naive? Crazy? Doo blooming lally? Im all of them!! Who said trying for a baby was easy.

Yes its possible, i just read so much into it and guess what...turns out my body decides to go against it all, typical really lol.

I used the tests last month just to try and work out when i was ovulating but obviously if i ovulate earlier than i thought thats why they were all negative.

Think ill 'accidently' slam the door when i get home just to be on the safe side Grin

V I came off the pill last November. Had a couple of days of just spotting after 23 days and then nothing for 35 days if I remember correctly. Then seemed to regulate to about 29 days. Didn't start using opks until January so not sure if or when I was ovulating before. Took me until july to get pregnant, but miscarried at just over 5weeks. I'm 31 and regretting staying on pill so long! One minute I was a spritely 21 year old and then next thing I know I'm a 30 something!! It usually takes up to 6 months to get regular cycles back post pill.

ChubbyKitty · 31/07/2013 21:35

Okay so the doctor told me to do a test (BFN) and gave me tablets to stop the bleeding.

He didn't really know of a cause or explanation though...

VJONES1985 · 31/07/2013 21:42

Marie - that makes me sad :( Hope it goes well for both of us!

TheBabyFacedAssassin · 31/07/2013 23:05

Congrats vikki! Make sure and report back in the morning and we'll be needing a breakdown of your symptoms :-)

impatientlywaiting · 31/07/2013 23:57

Congrats Vicki. Brilliant news. Definitely a lucky bus.

Happy August!!!!!! Grin

mrswalsh77 · 01/08/2013 08:27

Hello! Can I get a ticket to ride the August bus please??
TTC #1 baby, started trying about 3 months ago. Had a chemical pregnancy last month (we think so anyway!) and now just want a BFP! :)
Will know on or around 14th August.
Good luck ladies :)

ImaginaryHat · 01/08/2013 08:32

Congrats Vikki Flowers

Chubby, glad you went to docs, pity they can't tell you much but maybe just try the tablets and if they work just write it off as one of those weird unexplainable things. If not, see a different doctor!

Gearing up to count myself out, brown cm has turned to a bit of red (sorry tmi), sore boobs, grumpy and generally feeling like af is on her way. Basically I'm pms-ing hard! Hoping she comes early then I might be able to cling on the back of the bus for the end of the month.

Good luck to everyone due to test

Hendricks · 01/08/2013 09:43

Congratulations Vikki

Chubby hope things settle down for you. x

Trying to remain laid back about the whole process - especially as I'm not entirely sure we've DTD at the right point in my cycle. Finding it hard not to imaginary symptom spot though - especially as I know fine well I have a couple of tests lurking.

Good luck everyone. x

Irrelevant to ttc (and in general really!), but gilly I've just realised that all this time I've been reading your name as gillywoowoo not gillywillywoo! You seem like someone different now I've realised haha!

gillywillywoo · 01/08/2013 11:59

Haha imaginaryhat! Silly you! Grin Haha

Vikkijayne2507 · 01/08/2013 12:03

oh I was asked for symptoms. first very sore boobs and Nipples and they are bigger. weeing way more than I should and being tired a lot. felt a bit of nausea today and yesterday at the smell of coffee which I dont drink anyway.

SuddenlySqueamish · 01/08/2013 12:03

I really want to board this bus. I've got the right change counted out and everything! Now all I need is for my dear old AF to not pay her scheduled visit tomorrow and I can hop on board!

I have a good feeling but then I'm queen of the over-enthusiastic symptom spotting. EVERYTHING is a sign to me!

Anybody else due tomorrow and got pee sticks all ready and waiting to be peed on?

VJONES1985 · 01/08/2013 12:25

I'm a symptom spotter, same as you! Have been wee-ing constantly but I'm sure it's not pg linked at all! Anyway, AF is due today so I have no doubt I'm on August's ttc bus!

Dizzydaisylou · 01/08/2013 13:38

Got a positive opk today on cd29! So can I change my bfp date to 15th August please?the opk came up really strong within about 5 seconds even before the control line - is that normal???im just glad I'm ovulating!
