I started on the b6 this morning, hoping to stop the spotting and which will hopefully give us a better chance. Without it I think my lp would probably be just about long enough but getting spotting more and more regularly, started about 8dpo this month I think.

Gotta count myself out now as af has arrived but cling on to the back of the bus with:

How much B6 are you taking Kemie and Imaginary?
I started with 25ug a day last month and it didn't make a difference. This month, I upped it to 100ug which made a big difference.

ImaginaryHat · 03/08/2013 17:47

I just started on the 100 this morning, was considering 50 but everything I read said 100s safe so thought I'd just go straight for it! Your news is very encouraging!

Kemie · 03/08/2013 18:06

I've just been taking 50 for about three months, last month no spotting, so this month hoping for same (although I'd rather it didn't come at all!)

Congratulations Fairy Smile x

internationallove985 · 03/08/2013 20:08

I'm out already. A.F turned up this morning so I'm not feeling full of joy, but the world still turns I suppose. My F.w.b is home on Thursday and I'm seeing him on Friday. I know it's not the ideal relationship but then whose relationship is perfect! We've spoken and text lots and things seem much better, now x
Also congratulations to everyone who has their B.F.P and good luck to all including myself who are still trying. x

internationallove985 · 03/08/2013 21:51

I've just though on. I might be back on the bus as I could get my B.F.P at the end of August. xx

These tablets work like a charm re not bleeding but I don't think I can actually ov while I'm taking themConfused

On the plus side, I have enough to be taking them while I'm on holiday next weekend (girls holiday so no DP) so at least I won't get eaten by a shark right?

hopelessly searching for positive points

It seems the witch has poked her head round the door with some slight spotting this morning! Hopefully she'll get on with it and I won't be in the spotting limbo AGAIN! If I am b6 is going up 100!

Good luck to all those still awaiting their BFPs

Sorry Kemie Sad x

marie456 · 04/08/2013 09:10

Congrats to you fairy and sorry to those so rudely kicked off the bus.
10dpo and bfn here. Should start usual pre period spotting today. Started taking 100 of b6 in a vit b complex, but only started that yesterday which prob won't help this cycle at all.
Enjoy your Sundays everyone!

Pixie001 · 04/08/2013 09:13

Ello bus, sorry been so quiet. Packing up the house ready for moving turns out to be quite a big job.

Sorry to hear about those moving to back of bus but yay that you get to stay on! Please keep music and drunkenness down as I'm trying to ave a lie in.

Congrats to bfps!!!! Very pleased to hear of your successes and wish you all sticky beans and a healthy 9 mths. Grin

About a week left to wait for me. Been feeling all sorts of niggles and ridiculously hungry. Have totally got ahead of myself and just calculated EDD...it's week before my sister's wedding, at which I'm a bridesmaid! So ridiculously inconvenient that this means this will be our month right?!

Very annoyed with Drs. The receptionist told me nothing to worry about my blood tests. Spoke with Dr and they had used wrong tube to collect blood! So they didn't even test the right hormones! So I have to do it again now. altho obviously I won't need to as this is our month Hmm

SuddenlySqueamish · 04/08/2013 10:17

BFN this morning but still no sign of AF, 2 days late and I'm normally really predictably regular.
Also have a bit of an achey sensation on right hand side just below tummy area and my right nipple is really sore. Could be period symptoms though it's lurking and waiting to start.

Used Superdrug test, does anybody know if they are good?

Apparently Boots ones are more sensitive so may have to get some of them today.

blueamber · 04/08/2013 11:37

Super drug ones are the best! At 10 miu/ml they are the most sensitive. Boots ones aren't as good. Hope you get your answer soon, I know it's awful not knowing what's going on!

Captainmcgraw · 04/08/2013 17:37

Usual spotting started today so I'm on my way out. Also made the hard decision to stop trying to conceive for a while as going to start taking antidepressants (not just associated with TTC although not helping) and Dr not that happy prescribing them when I'm TTC. Also think it might be worth focusing on my own health for a while before trying again. So will perhaps be back on the bus in 6 months or so but hoping by then you'll all have got your bfps and therefore I won't see any familiar names!

snoozysleeper · 04/08/2013 19:07

congratulations fairy

and captain sorry to hear you're on the way out but it sounds like your making a sensible decision with your own health so best of luck and hopefully the 6 months won't feel too long for you

PurpleGeekyGirl · 04/08/2013 21:19

Who else is doing smep this cycle? We've dtd 11 days out of 13 so far (Shock!) and it's exhausting!

Kyoung1 · 04/08/2013 21:22

Hi ladies hope you don't mind me joining in but i'm a little confused, who better to ask than the august bus. apologies in advance as i dont know the abbreviations.

I was due my period on thursday just gone, i had light cramping on wed and a light pinkish on the tissue which went through part of thurs aswell, then nothing. Sat morning when I woke I see a little brown on the tissue but it was very pale (very little for me to see). Then this morning i wake to a much heavier flow than I would normally have and much more painful cramping which extends to my back aswell which it never normally does. I should mention I am normally very regular and never get any pink on the tissue its always a full on period.

My husband and I are ttc so what exactly is my body doing to me? is it having a laugh at my expense?

fifi669 · 04/08/2013 21:27

kyoung have you done a test? It could be implantation bleeding...
