Haha LH - I'm an obsessive tester too! So far just the one opk per day (cd6) but I also did a IC pg test this morning for the hell of it Grin

Missvaughan85 · 23/10/2013 22:38

I'll just be lurking girls, don't add me to the list just yet, still waiting in oct bus, but I must admit, I'm missing you all. Oct bus is very lonely. I'd rather us all be on a bfp bus, I'm wishing everyone lots of luck this month, x x

PunkyPod · 23/10/2013 22:55

Ewcm appeared today and coincided with positive opk this evening (neg this morning). It's a big relief to see that pink line isn't it. Smile

mama31 · 23/10/2013 22:58

I appreciate that LH ;) good luck :)

Squeezes onelife immensely!!!!! Yay! Your here!! :) let's just see what happens.....and yes tell me to "stay away from the pee sticks!!!!!" I agree!!!! here we go!!!!!!!!

Bloumer · 23/10/2013 23:22

Hello all, tried to board a few pages back but I seem to have missed the list! Please can someone add me?

Bloumer ttc#1 month 5/cycle ridiculous BFP ?

Thanks m33r, notta and imaginary for welcoming me back so warmly! Now I've got the start of a cycle I feel much more motivated.

notta can't believe you also had 7 months without AF after bc wore off! You're right, I feel more normal now. Thermometer arrived yesterday and I started temping this morning so I'm enjoying the novelty of that ATM!

Sorry to hear about all the pet and DH trouble ladies (yes I'm lumping them in the same category!) Grin

grobagsforever · 23/10/2013 23:45

Evening all. So poss implantation day for me today and I've two distinct hot flushes. Dr Google says this can be a symptom. Bastard symptom spotting! FX.... Hope everyone ok, nearly the weekend! X

lessonsintightropes · 24/10/2013 00:03

This thread is keeping me sane :) AF arrived and I joined the bus just after, and have emptied Amazon/Waterstones. Is anyone else reading the Impatient Woman or Expecting Better? For this cycle (#3 and man yes I am counting) I have clearblue digital monitors, a digi thermometer, slightly squicky knowledge of EWCM and a very willing DH at the ready. Grasping my bus ticket and hoping against hope that this is the month despite being a bit too fat (have started running, yoga and walking) and a bit too high blood pressure (have stopped eating crisps). Oh and I'm 35 too so trying not to be tooooo nervous about having shrivelled eggs because I had too much boozy fun in my 20s a slightly lower chance of my BFP. Bring on the cancellation of bus tickets for all of us :)

flymo79 · 24/10/2013 08:48

hey lessons I'll be on cycle #4 next month and right behind ya on the bus (trying not to offer you crisps)! just got af so joining the bus to cheer myself up! toot toot

Owlie84 · 24/10/2013 08:59

Brrr, a chilly one this morning! :)
It's nearly November, yay! not that I'm wishing my life away...
I'm in the dreaded tww, i think I'm on 4dpo, so at the boring stage. No symptom spotting yet!! Only got to dtd around ov anyway, but who knows!
Welcome to the newbies! fx this is going to be a good one :)

lucyfluff · 24/10/2013 09:26

Oh yes owlie it's chilly here too, hats and gloves for the school run!

Hi to all the new ladies, and welcome back to my October buddies (glad your feeling better one life I'm perching at the back with you and mama...is that where they put the naughty poas addicts?! Lol)

Had a chilled night catching up on GBBO last night in bed with cake whilst DH was away! I was also wondering about AF....have read it may take six weeks to reappear after early loss...hoping it shows up by the end of October and doesn't mess up my cycle too much!!

mama31 · 24/10/2013 10:21

Hi Lucy :) come sit with us of course :) I am a changed woman!!! No longer a poas addict and will not be testing early. So you, me and onelife will be holding off on the testing as long as possible and once we have a late af, then we will host a fabulous bfp party!!!! Deal?!!

Karmalaa · 24/10/2013 11:52

Hi ladies, can I jump on the bus too??

We're ttc#1, we got out bfp on the first cycle but mc very early. This is our first cycle since mc and I think today/tomorrow is ov day. OPKs never seem to work for me but i get a clear temp rise on my charts.

I'm excited to be here with all you ladies, lets keep our fingers crossed and see those BFPs rolling in!!

Karmalaa · 24/10/2013 11:57

lessonsintightropes I've read the Impatient Woman's Guide front to back at least 6 times, its my favourite to dip into during the "bum on pillow" time Grin I've read about half of Expecting Better, some very interesting stuff! I tried reading What to expect before you're expecting but didn't like it as much, are there any others that you/others would recommend?

LH1981 · 24/10/2013 12:07

Haha HisLommel, glad I'm not the only one!
I'm dpo 6 today, so too early for symptom spotting...BUT, have got that really disgusting metal taste in my mouth again. Bleugh! Had it last month, but that was due to pill hormones still being present - perhaps they are still floating around my system - gross!

Welcome to new passengers - let's all hope we have little passengers of our own by the end of November!!! xx

sazzlehopes · 24/10/2013 13:55

Ladies i'm at the poas party friday - i'll be 10dpo i think. I normally have a lp of 13 days so should I use IC, frer or clearblue diggi to get the best result do you think?! I have them all in the house, so it is no bother which i crack open. I am a nightmare...I know.

mama31 · 24/10/2013 14:00

Use the FRER!

Well GP chat went well, going in for blood test on cd21 to check all is in working order and check for thyroid and other things re the spotting. GP wasn't overly concerned re the spotting and said it's quite normal but also will prob decrease over time as it takes a while for hormones to regulate after the pill, in some cases 6 months!

But feel happy to get the blood test so that I can feel reassured everything is ok. Glad I made contact with the GP now! :)

sazzlehopes · 24/10/2013 14:09

thanks mama - of all people you should know the best test!!!
Glad the doc phone call went well - nice to get checked over. it's funny how this second baby lark aint as easy as the first hey?!

Karmalaa · 24/10/2013 14:11

Hi, i'm on CD15 today, usually ov between CD16 & CD18 in a 35 day cycle. This is a really silly question but how do I calculate the day the BFP is due? last time I just waited until AF didn't show up (19DPO). Is BFP due date the same as AF due date or literally just 14 days from ov? haha i sound totally clueless!

LH1981 · 24/10/2013 14:36

Hi karmalaa, I think the most accurate is from day of missed period - that's what the tests say. But depending on the test, you can get a bfp from 4 days before. So, I say base your bfp on due-date of next period, but start testing from a few days before if the desire takes you! Grin...or you can be like me, and a few other poas addicts (mentioning no names, ahem mama) Wink and poas every day - just in case!!

MundayCakes85 · 24/10/2013 14:51

The eta of your BFP should be the date that AF would arrive. This should also be 14 day after ovulation. Hope this helps. I'm hoping I ovulate this weekend. Not doing OPKs as I didn't want to put any stress on us this month. However I'm still temping so should work it out afterwards.
It's bloody cold today- this the heating may go on soon Sad

Karmalaa · 24/10/2013 14:54

thanks LH, i was like that last cycle, poas every day from 12dpo! I'm trying to move away from that this time but I know I'll be there squinting at lines days before AF is due!

Karmalaa · 24/10/2013 15:01

hi munday, thanks for your help too! I think i got myself confused! i also said I've got a 35 days cycle - silly fat fingers on the phone! I meant 30 day cycle so going from that BFP due on 9th Nov, now fingers crossed I ov!
