Roll up Roll up it's the October BFP bus!

Kemie · 2013-09-06T08:13:11+00:00

Well I thought I'd get the ball rolling and start up the October bus, there's plenty of [cake] and [wine] on board and extra comfy seats for relaxing into those BFP's

On computer now, so just added myself. This bus is quiet at present! The Sept bus is manic. I am an old member of the bus groups but left a couple of months ago due to being disheartened by mc and the amount of cycles I had being trying compared to some who were getting instant bfp's! Feeling slightly better now!

flame40s · 07/09/2013 18:23

Aww funkymonk sorry to hear about your mc and the disheartening :(

I learned a lot on the September bus... that I was turning into a symptom spotting crazy woman!

A lot more chilled now about ttc and currently on holiday in Malaga.

Good luck to everyone on this bus.

Hi funkymonk, sorry to hear about mc, I'm at about the same place as running and hiding as becoming disheartened by amount of cycles ttc compared to the seamingly instant bfp's, symptoms last cycle were madder than usual but still turned out to be pre AF nonsense so not going to get hopes up at all at anything until missed AF!

Good luck everybody

Slightly envious of the young females on the bus... sorry :(

Im 42 and think its all working ok as got positive ov results last cycle on clearblue. Boyght cheapie ov sticks from amazon this month though so keeping my fingers crossed but not my legs!!

If I told my friends I am ttc at this stage of my life they will think I am insane as they just would not understand why. Rant over

Kemie · 08/09/2013 16:38

flame I'm not as young as others at 34 (dp is 38) I feel old to be ttc number 1 so late, not out of choice, just that I've not been in a position to earlier, I've always wanted kids and am struggling with waiting yet more time for it to happen (if it does at all)
I understand your envy though, but I know mums who had babies in their 40's who were planned, I'm sure you and your new hubby will have the new addition to your family soon. Good luck

flame40s · 09/09/2013 00:25

Thanks Kemie. I'll be willing you to conceive first now for that vote of confidence :)

Just getting over a relatively mild Af and hoping to get lots of fun sex in so oh doesnt feel too under pressure this month. Im planning on pinning him down for early morning dtd whilst engaging in relaxed naughty sex at nights. That should hopefully work well with ov dates... I hope

Good luck flame, sounds like a good plan, I'm currently staying with my parents for prolonged a/l when oh has chosen to go back to work, will be returning just at the point my fertile window opens, I try not to tell him when that is, and be all relaxed but he works it out!
Was reading about the effects of anti-depressants on spermies yesterday and wondering if that's the reason it's taking a while, I need to convince oh to get to dr's for an analysis to see what's going on, I know he wants to stop a/ds but it's not as easy as just stopping them

OP posts:

flame40s · 09/09/2013 08:49

How long has he been taking the a/d kemie ?

I would seek advice on what impact they may have, im sure you could even google it and get some facts... Basic stress and fatigue can also reduce sperm count!

Since I showed my oh that I got a fixed smiley on my opk he started getting performance anxiety. He had no problem getting hard but couldnt deliver the ingredients... we talked about it and it seems to have lifted now... all was good last night!! I think my plan this month will work.

Try and talk to your oh Kemie it will help. :)

Yeah I'll be talking to him once I get back home, it's not the conversation I want to have over the phone. He's already decided he's firing blanks anyway and is willing but nervous to get tested, he's been on a/ds for a few years now, and would like to get off them but that's easier said than done.
We've decided to take some time off after Xmas and go on a (last minute deal) exotic holiday, to relax, it'll also give me something else to obsess over other than ttc.

I'll jump on board. I'm technically ttc number 3. I'm testing on 28th Sept. If A.F stays away. x

englishteacher78 · 10/09/2013 06:38

Another 34 year old here. AF just booted me off the September bus and due to being off the pill (obv) I'm in a lot of pain! Anyway, enough self-pitying here. It was only the second time of trying, I'm just a little sick of this monthly agony!
