Planning ahead for Christmas! December bus starting far too early...

Hi All,

Anyone else around for the Dec bus yet? I think AF has managed to kick me off Nov already as she has arrived a few days early, and my cycle will probably mean she is next due at the beginning of Dec rather than Nov.

So does anyone else want to climb on board and help me hang tinsel and drink mulled wine to while away the time until that bfp in Dec?

Morning ladies- I'm apologising in advance for TMI-
I'm 10 hours in to my shift, DTD at 6pm last night. An 3 dpo. Just come back from the toilet and there's A LOT of hand lotion cm- almost thought it was man juice, however my pelvic floor muscles aren't that strong!
Not had this on previous cycles- anyone got any experience/ advice, is this normal?
Thanks [tchsmile]

spinningirl10 · 02/12/2013 07:09

Morning Grin

Holly....79days!!! Pleased af has finally arrived for you and good luck for this cycle Grin

Green....sorry to hear you've had bed newsThanks

Munday.....I haven't got a clue,sorry!

My af finished, yay!! Now waiting to ov, got my bumper pack of ov tests ready Grin

Good luck to everyone testing this week Grin

spinningirl10 · 02/12/2013 07:10

Green....bed= bad!!

lucyfluff · 02/12/2013 07:40

Morning!!

Lots going on here ladies, hope we hear another BFP today Smile

Munday...I think we are poas twins too just reading back through!!

We managed dtd last night (just) lol...still feeling crappy and had ov tummy pain low down but the things we do for a baby Smile only one more day of my sex plan on tuesday and thats it for the month....!!! I need a rest too Wink

TwerkingNineToFive · 02/12/2013 07:49

I'm officially nuts. I have just taken three ic tests. If you look mega hard with a light shining on them there might be something there but I'm 3 days late I thought I'd get more of a result by now. I'm going to buy a first response for tomorrow. [insert Christmas crazy face]
BFP due 3rd of dec (#2 cycle 3)

Gingerpanther27 · 02/12/2013 09:21

Right so af properly buggered off yesterday and I have ewcm today and I'm one of the sods that gets Af for a week so I'm proper confused because that would mean ovulation in the next couple of days right? Any experts out there with any advice? Xmas Confused

SoMuchFruit · 02/12/2013 09:30

Oooh exciting Twerking.. Hope the FR will confirm the BFP for you Smile

Congratulations to Kirsty too - loads of BFP's before the bus even left - that's encouraging!

Not a lot happening at the Fruit Farm. No symptoms, CD6, I think. Am fine and dandy. Bit narky à la normal PMS and some random spots (don't usually get spots so blaming extensive mince pie ingestion) but nothing else.

How is everyone else ?

SoMuchFruit · 02/12/2013 09:31

*OD6 not CD6 ...

babyspice2501 · 02/12/2013 09:41

Missvaughan im like you sometimes. Im either really obssessed or I think ah what the heck who cares. Ive just come off my af and because I only stopped the pill in oct I dont think ive managed to get my pattern back yet so I have no idea when im due to ovulate or when to expect my next af. I think I might be due late dec 25th maybe 27th

greentealeaf hope your ok and big hugs from me xx

twerking good luck to you this morning! Cant wait to hear your results :)

spinningirl10 · 02/12/2013 09:58

Ginger....do you use the ov tests? That might make it easier for you to tell, or you could just dtd every other day if unsureGrin

PunkyPod · 02/12/2013 10:07

10DPO now. Did a sneaky test this morning and BFN. I've been feeling a bit icky in my throat. Not sick as such but just icky feeling. Anyway, hoping sooooooo much for a BFP by the end of the week. Swore to myself i'd wait for BFP on internet cheapy but keeping getting the urge to nip across the road to Superdrug and get a first response. Got to avoid the urge!
Stick peeing obsession is really taking hold!
I've been preg twice before, first time no symptoms but did get BFP and then MC at 7 weeks. Second time was my DD and the symptoms were much clearer. It just feels like all these funny feelings i keep getting are indicating that something is happening. But then it could all be in my mind....... i do feel yuck though and i'm not ill.

Twerking, this is sounding really good, hope your test tomorrow is conclusive :)

akachan · 02/12/2013 10:10

Sorry for TMI - I am day 11 of cycle (normally 29 days) and so I thought too early to ovulate but have EWCM. Do some people just ovulate early in their cycle?

If so I am probably out for the month as haven't dtd at all as have had a stinking cold. I might try and get some tonight after work but I have an evening class. The timing is making me crazy!

TwerkingNineToFive · 02/12/2013 11:02

Bit the bullet and did a fr.
Got a BFP!

Twerking, I was coming on here to check how you had got on this morning, and what do I see?? A BFP!! Brilliant, I am so pleased to hear that. Congratulations!

I'm very glad you bit the bullet and did a FR!

How are you feeling?

OP posts:
Gingerpanther27 · 02/12/2013 11:28

spinning going to order some for next month I think....dtd a lot anyway how no bfp yet really no idea

Gingerpanther27 · 02/12/2013 11:29

Twerking congrats on the bfp

barmybunting · 02/12/2013 11:31

greentea - I'm sorry to hear that you have had bad news. We are thinking of you.

punkypod - It's sounding promising for you! 10dpo is maybe a bit early for it to show for you on IC. Either try something else if the signs are making you hopeful or wait until tomorrow morning?

Munday - I noticed something similar on my last 2 cycles, googled it and apparently EWCM is normal at various stages of the cycle. I'm not sure I believe that though, but I am equally confused on what it is. Sorry, no help!

OP posts:
barmybunting · 02/12/2013 11:32

ginger - sorry, just spotted your update re stats. I've got them on hand and I'll stick them in with the next update if that's ok?

Love hearing about all the bfps on this bus! Congratulations twerking Sounds promising punkypod fingers crossed for you akachan you get ewcm on the lead up to ov I think so get on the case.

spinningirl10 · 02/12/2013 15:09

Twerking....Congratulations on your bfpGrin

Had a chat to dp today and he says I can tell him when I'm ov'ing so we can dtd as much as possibleGrin
This will hopefully make things easier as before he didn't want to know so I was left stressing at ov time as to whether I would be able to get him in the mood!!!WinkGrin

MundayCakes85 · 02/12/2013 15:35

Twerking Congratulations! First official December BFP, how exciting!
Lucy I've always wanted a POAS twin! You'll have to stop me peeing too early Smile
So who's next for an early BFP present?
