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

[Kemie]

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

Choccy I do the tissue thing too. Re ewcm my cycle on a 25 day one means I ov on cd11 so ewcm this early is normal for me.

Will have to start with the opks for sure then . I've only got 8 left, so may have to order more as I want to do them twice a day as not to miss it.

I've got a load of ic opks that just don't work for me at all. Does anyone want them for postage? There's tons of the feckers!

Oh purple, didn't see your post before I just ordered 30 more (but they're only about 10p each) :)

The main problem with having a visitor stay will be the late nights up, we will be tired when we get to bed, but will have to just persevere with making the effort! I just wish it was the week before or after.

choccy I don't think ov on or after cycle day 9 is too unusually early for a 26 day cycle, it also means that your lp will be hopefully be longish, so that is a good thing!

Could I hop on board please, ttc#3, cycle 1, BFP oct 9th 33 yrs.

Hopefully Jessie, just didnt ov til day 16 last time and had a short LP.
Can you have a session in the morning

choccy not a chance, not with our ds, 6.30 am is a lie in for him!

Will have to be late night/middle of the night quickies I think!

Ha ha, think you'll have to. Know what you mean about getting up early. Our ds slept til 7.10 this morning, in his own bed too woohoo, so that was a fab lie in. Normally in our room on the futon at 1am!
Good luck! We have to have a quickie first thing when I've taken ds downstairs for his milk, plonked him in front of peppa pig and quickly run back up. Oh the joys, and we want to do this again?!?!?

Afternoon all. Just been kicked off the september bus by the evil AF. So I'm here to join you al.

Please can someone add me?

Nottalotta ttc#1 C4 (already?!?!) bfp due 19th oct.

Tje joys of a shorter cycle.

Hi notta, so sorry af came, hope you have lots of cake/wine to soften the blow. I had a 25 day cycle and am on cycle 4 now, it has flown by so hooray for short cycles. Though approaching the dreaded 2 ww where time.goes.backwards...hope you are feeling ok and feeling positive for the next cycle!

Sorry Notta

Thanks charlie and purple. I'm ok just a bit grumpy! Af was due today but no signs AT ALL til just before i posted earlier. She's a bitch.

I have had about a gazillion biscuits today, done sod all at work and have a bottle of wine for when i get home. :-) onwards......

Charlie, when do you think you ov on a 26 day cycle?

Also i really must try harder!! More dtd is required.

Wine is the answer to pmt grumps, and guilt free too, would be rude not to.

had positive opk yesterday matched with app which says ov today, paired with ov pain last night and 2days of ewcm I think I can safely hope ov was when I thought (cycle day 14) luteal phase is always 14 days later so expecting a 27 day cycle. Phew.

Read that sperm needs sometimes 7 hrs to get to its destination, and lives for days so in fact the days before ov are most important, so did 2 (3 day) blocks of shagging ending today with a few more for luck tomorrow and we'll see after that. Good luck, I found cycle 4 I was a lot more committed to dtd, determined month for us, hope it's the same for you!

AF arrived today so can I be added please?

Fox82 ttc#1 cycle 11 bfp due 22nd oct

Thanks Charlie - i am just using an app - my days - to work out poss ov date. Had almost 3 days of spotting last month but none this time and af turned up late afternoon so i think i might make a 26 day cycle this time.

Working on the wine....

Hi notta sorry to see you here.

I wish I had short cycles.

Hi jessie i know what you mean - but we are never happy with our lot! I worry my LP will be too short. Who the hell knows? I sure as shit don't! If i am not upduffed by christmas will consider temping and opks but just shagging til then! (need to shag more....)

Hi Notta, also sorry to see you here.

That is true, and at least I get af regularly, so many others worse off.

Surely we'll be upduffed by Xmas!! The chance is 1 in 4 every cycle so I won't be thinking otherwise. Of course it will happen!

(Although I've got my opks ready to go, but that is as far as science will help me as I don't think temping would suit my lifestyle unfortunately)

I think 7 hours is a bit on the long side of an estimate of how long sperm takes to get to the egg.. Apparently it can be only a matter of minutes, or a couple hours, but I think 7 hours would be a sign of low mobility in the sperm. Also, the quicker ones will be healthier and thus better equipped to fertilise that egg!

But yes, the 2 days pre ovulation are the best, as eggs can die in as little as 6 hours! However, unless you have fertile cm, the sperm won't survive the journey, which is why preseed comes in handy if you don't get EWCM.. It helps the little guys survive.

wispa really!? I didn't know that about ewcm!

We are going to be trying well before ov as I want to try and increase the chances of conceiving a girl. The theory of pre/post ov and gender was relevant to conceiving our ds (I believe) as dp was away for the first part of the cycle when we conceived him and I actually though we had missed the window completely as it was just after ewcm had stopped when we started dtd that cycle.

Just to add we didnt use opks with ds, I actually ordered them during his 2ww as I thought we had no chance! So I just guessed ov time as had ov cramps and ewcm.
