Congrats kitty that is fantastic news!! Yes definitely post your how to story :)

gilly crossing my fingers that you! It would be typical troll body if you did though.

I have to admit, I did the whole legs in the air for half an hour after dtd last night...even though all the reading I have done says it really has no effect....but this month I'm doing trying anything!!

Any other tips?! If no bfp this month think ill order some opks for the next cycle.

Who is next to test??

TheBabyFacedAssassin · 06/08/2013 17:03

Ooh gilly just noticed we are almost cycle buddies :)

roodles84 · 06/08/2013 17:19

Congratulations Kitty Flowers

snoozysleeper · 06/08/2013 17:42

congratulations kitty you must be so happy Grin !!

Pixie001 · 06/08/2013 17:45

Yay kitty Flowers

Who else is coming up to poas? We need some more bfps! including me in a few days pls! Altho 10dpo per you kitty is tomorrow...Hmm

Baby (you're full name gives me bad dreams) lob one of the jaffa cakes will ya? I'm meant to be healthy but I'm constantly ravenous and loooove 'em. Opks will make you more obsessive but do definitely take the guess work out of the whole process if they work for you. I find ics fine but I know lots of these ladies prefer cb.

Pixie001 · 06/08/2013 17:48

Any news from marie on post mc attempts?

mama31 · 06/08/2013 18:31

Hey! Any room on the bus for me??? I am hoping for bfp this month. Ovulated and ttc A LOT on 29th july (prior to and after also) not sure when to do a test tho as I only came off bcp on 22nd july but pretty certain I was ovulating around 29th! I know I'm being completely optimistic that it will happen so soon after bcp as I haven't had an af since coming off it on 22nd so who knows what's going on with my cycle! :/

cheesysmile · 06/08/2013 18:33

Congrats Kitty Smile Fab news!

marie456 · 06/08/2013 19:12

Congrats Kitty! You're so lucky on your first cycle! Envy Thanks
Hi pixie ! I've started the usual pre period spotting today and a bit yesterday so expecting to be thrown off the bus tomorrow! Thanks for asking! Smile. Didn't think I'd be lucky enough to get a bfp 2 months in a row. Doesn't stop you hoping though! You've been ttc for a while too? Have you had any early miscarriages? I'm wondering whether to make a trip to the docs as I'm no spring chicken anymore!

cheesysmile · 06/08/2013 19:32

Impatientlywaiting you sound similar to me - what did you count as CD 1 after miscarriage?

Hello to those jumping on board the bus Smile

mama31 · 06/08/2013 19:52

Hello! Great to see some good news!!! :) wishing you all well, great to read everyone journey! Roll on the next bfp!!

Pixie001 · 06/08/2013 20:18

Hi mama welcome..let us know all your stats and someone who's better at working copy and paste will add you to the list!

Hi marie sorry you've got normal pre af symptoms. Have heard increased fertility after mc so had my fx for you. I've not had any mc..never got to a bfp sadly so I can't imagine what it's like to go thru the ups and downs you have. We've been trying aaaaages...perhaps I'm the oldest timer on this bus? Not sure, started joining back in oct I think. Been trying since got married last year and in earnest for 12 cycles. I'm in my early 30s so thought I'd better get to Dr sooner rather than later. started having blood tests - cd21s fine but they messed up last month's cd3 set so have to have them done again. Dh having fishies test end of mth having waited months for it. Think I need to find a thread with knowledge on referrals as not sure I'm doin or what I should be asking!

mama31 · 06/08/2013 21:11

Thankyou pixie. Unfortunately I can't work my stats out as yet, just came off the pill on 22nd july and haven't had withdrawl bleed or af so far but had signs of ovulation on 28/29th july so af due this wkend!! But just being very unrealistic and hoping it doesn't arrive!! But if it does I can then monitor my cycle properly for ttc this month :) I am trying for no 2, my first child is 12yrs old!!! So I'm not in the way of this at all now. I wish u well with your journey, hope u get a bfp soon!!

marie456 · 06/08/2013 22:02

Hi Pixie. That must be so frustrating for you. At least you are under investigation and hopefully a positive outcome for you soon! I have everything crossed for you! I'm in my early 30's which makes me panic a bit too! I'm sure that whatever stopped me conceiving for such a while was also the cause of early mc. Convinced its low progesterone as have other signs such as shortish luteal phase and pre af spotting. I can recommend that you have a look at the elderberry pavlovas thread! It's for women over 30 ttc number 1 for longer than 3 months. The ladies on that discussion board have so much information and knowledge to pass on. I'm sure you'll find it helpful!

nuppet · 06/08/2013 23:49

Hi ladies!
Inspired by KittyKK getting a bfp at 10dpo I decided to poas too! BFP for me!! DH and I feel pretty shocked (but super excited too!!). We didn't expect it to happen this quickly Grin

Fingers crossed for everyone else!

Congratulations Nubbet, that's amazing news. Really pleased for you. Two BFPs in 1 day- well played BFP bus. GrinGrin

Ah Marie I'm so sorry you think AF's on her way. Are you ok? I'm actually pretty scared for my AF to arrive. Although I try to tell myself that it would be unlikely to get a BFP two cycles in a row, because I got my last BFP on cycle 2, I think somewhere in my head I believe that I'm going to be preggers by the end of the month. I'm a bit worried I'm going to be really upset if I'm not.

Sorry you've been through the same thing Cheesy. I MC'd at 5 weeks. Spotting on the Friday, bleeding on the Saturday and a negative test on the Monday. I'm counting CD1 from the bleeding on the Saturday, but def think I'm a few days behind, as by this stage last cycle I'd had my O symptoms and this month nothing.

ChubbyKitty · 07/08/2013 00:24

So those tablets worked really well.

Now I've lost themHmm and AF has come back with a vengeance. I think she's trying to kill me from the uterus upwards. Cow.

JellyBeanDavey · 07/08/2013 06:19

I think today is the day. Seems to be a lot of fuss being kicked up in my womb area the last few days. I hopes it's Miss. Flo herself. Sorry to everyone that she did get though. Think positive, at least she is here, unlike me and my 102cycle :D

KittyKK · 07/08/2013 06:28

Thanks ladies Thanks Congrats nuppet Smile

Sending all my best wishes to everyone on the bus and especially those ladies who've MC'd xxx

Just popping my head in to say congratulations kitty and nuppetThanks
There's room on the april antenatal bus for you both.
I hope 2 in a row starts a new trend and we see more BFPs (nice to see purple's putting the legwork inWink).
Sorry to those of you that are out til next month and much respect to captain for being so sensible and deferring ttc- I really hope you get a +ive in the first month of trying again.

Hendricks · 07/08/2013 07:53

Congratulations Kitty and nuppet!

Sorry to hear some of you are having a tough time of it.

GinandStripes · 07/08/2013 08:59

Congratulations Kitty & nuppet :D How exciting for you both. Thanks Thanks

supercalafraga · 07/08/2013 09:40

congrats to the bfp'ers! Such exciting times Grin

marie and pixie sounds like we all in similar boats... Also early 30s, cycle 8 of serious trying and not so much as a sniff of a bfp Sad if no luck this month going to take myself off to the doc to start the process.... BUT it WIll be our month so hopefully no need for that Wink x
