The August BFP bus PART 2! All aboard the glorious magical mystery bus!

[gillywillywoo]

The old bus ran out of fuel so please board this replacement service!

Thanks lovely people!

Yes gilly you did tell me that yesterday but I was still in doubt! I'll go and get a cbdigi at lunchtime and will prob even POAS this afternoon just to see.
No idea how I'm going to convince DP!

Isean has your DH got problems with his sight?!

Your DP is blind! I've decided!

Isean - how many dpo are you?

Isean yours isn't faint at all. You will get a positive with a clearblue now. Then you'll see the words and believe it. Xx

VJONES I'm not too sure how many dpo I am, the app I track my cycles on says I OV on CD15 on there abouts, which would make me 17 dpo and I'm not sure that is right! I've been trying to be very relaxed this cycle as DP was getting annoyed with me for getting too obsessed, so I didn't use OPKs or anything, but did notice I had more CM all month than normal.
Symptom wise I didn't have anything to speak of until 12 dpo except I got a bad cold about 6 dpo and am still sniffling now! I've been feeling the cold worse than normal too, sometimes I just can't warm up at all. Then about 12 dpo I started getting period-like cramps, not all the time, but on and off, and noticed a tugging/pulling feeling when I moved (or sneezed) sometimes. I was also a complete fruitloop for a couple of days and thought it was pms, everything was irritating and made me angry and irrational (poor DP!). I assumed af was on her way and that although it was early (my last cycle was 37 days) my body was still adjusting to coming off the pill.
I also have endometriosis so put the cramps down to that and assumed af was going to be a bad one.
Anyway the cramps continued, I still have them on and off, and I also had lower back pain, which I don't normally get much of. I was also really tired and looked exhausted and pretty awful!
My boobs have been much more sensitive, sore and heavy feeling. I'm normally aware of them the day before af arrives, but they've been sore for days.
Anyway on CD31 (which would be 16 dpo on my app) I decided to test as I felt the cramps, sore boobs, tiredness was going on far longer than normal with no af arrival. So that was yesterday!

I don't know if that will help anyone, but it was the on-going cramps which were the main thing I noticed.

Sorry for rambling on a bit!

Well I am now definately off this bus. Well done to all you with BPF - faint or otherwise! I'll slink off to the September bus now.

Sorry littlemisspear good luck next month x

Hahahaha gilly! I should show him this thread!

I actually think he is a bit scared to admit we are pregnant as he thinks I will then get really excited and one of the first things he said was that he was worried how I would cope if it didn't stick.

Thanks Isean, makes me feel better when people say they don't have any really obvious symptoms and interesting to hear you didn't really have any until 12 dpo.

Sorry littlemisspear

I want the bus to take a wee detour so everyone on it gets their BFPs! This ttc business is much much harder than I imagined. xx

Isean I think you should slap your DH in the face with your positive tests. Or poke him in the eye with them until he admits he was wrong and you have a bun in the oven.

How many months you been trying, Isean?

I think a digi with the word "pregnant" is the next stage in convincing him!

Do you have one handy Isean? You have to do one asap!

VJONES I took my last pill on 13th March and after my withdrawal bleed my cycles have been 32, 31, 27, 37.
We have regular sex, twice a week at the very minimum. We were on holiday earlier this month and dtd a lot (CDs 4,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,16,19,21,25 and 28) and I felt much more relaxed about the whole thing, although wasn't at all convinced anything would happen this cycle.

I feel apprehensively very fortunate.

disney I'm going to get one (or 10!) at lunchtime and will test this afternoon to put my mind (and all of yours) at rest!

Yes, it's gone relatively smoothly with those cycle lengths :) Fills me with a bit more hope as this is my first month off the pill, I seem to have ov on cd19 and I'm now on cd21.

Yay!!! Hurry up and POAS isean

I have been catching up having been offline since Tues and wow the bus has been busy! Congrats to all those with BFP! It is really encouraging to see this and always puts a on my face everytime someone posts good news!

I'm butting in from the September bus (sorry) but agree, Isean that is definitely a line, congratulations! Go get a CB digi

Never worry VickyVix I've hijacked the August bus.

Jonesy According to fertility friend, and the very sparse details I entered over the last few months , I ovulated on cd18 and am 2dpo due to test on the 30th. 27 day cycle last month (?) and 29 the months before. So looking like we could be cycle buddies (never had one before pfft!)

Just wanted to say huge congrats to jellyandcake, and everyone else obviously. I haven't been on mumsnet in ages and missed the news, due to the hellish hell that is morning (all day) sickness.
