sazzlehopes · 10/12/2013 08:42

18 BFPs so far - amazing! And FIVE yesterday! Lets see what happens today...wonderful christmas cheer going on!

barmybunting · 10/12/2013 09:09

Sazzle - Thank you!!

I was actually popping on to ask if someone would be able to do just that this morning, thank you for updating. Unfortunately nothing to do with a BFP, something has happened at work which has knocked me for six to be honest. I received a phone call yesterday afternoon asking me to go in to be told about something and need to head back in just now. You know those things that just make no sense? Sorry, my head is all over the place with it at the moment. I'll hopefully be back in a day or so once things have settled down there. The whole situation is just making me feel ill at the moment.

OP posts:
LittleOwlie · 10/12/2013 09:17

So AF has well and truly got me this morning. So I'm off the bus.

Good luck to everyone who's still on and also all the lucky ones with BFPs. Hope they all stick nicely for you.

I'm off to the January bus now.

spinningirl10 · 10/12/2013 09:31

Little....sorry af has turned up, good luck on the New Year bus Thanks

Barmy....sorry to hear your having problems at work, we're here if you need to vent Thanks

spinningirl10 · 10/12/2013 09:32

Wow 18 bfp's in 10 days!! So exciting....keep them coming ladies Grin

Choccywoccydodah · 10/12/2013 09:38

Bfn here :( will try again later.

(Waves at Lucy!!) hey sweetie!!!! How is everything with you now, all settling down?
Re house it's 6 bed, massive old Victorian thing over 4 floors inc a dry cellar. I've just had to order a 9 ft Xmas tree for the lounge as the 6ft one in the snug looks a bit short lol, but nice in there. It's a house we never ever thought we'd live in but it was such a steal we HAD to have it!! It's going to take a bit of doing up to get it back to its original state but it's totally liveable which is why we bought it Grin. Love it, especially for ds, he has so much room to explore and play. But as I said, we NEED another baby to fill it a bit more!!!!

Writerwannabe83 · 10/12/2013 09:50

Congratulation so on more BFPS Grin
This must be the luckiest bus yet???

choccy - your house sounds absolutely beautiful!! And how wonderful to have such a big Christmas Tree, I bet everything will look perfect and magical. I hope you have a lovely first Christmas in your new home and that you get your BFP too Smile

Aisha18 · 10/12/2013 10:14

Morning girls...congratulations on all the BFPs! So nice to read SmileSmile I have a question, I'm way to embarrassed to ask anyone I know in real life but I though you wouldn't laugh me out of the place...so, when you dtd and ttc, should you lay down after and not get up to pee/shower? Last 2 months I've been laying down for about 10 mins then showering...now on month 3 and I'm worrying I may be washing all swimmers away! Anyone who's been pregnant before/has a BFP any advice?! Got first flashing smiley today on opk, so will most likely ov on Fri and DH away from this eve till sun...hoping for super strong swimmers to survive from tonight till fri!
Have a good Tuesday all Smile looking forward to next BFP xx

laravh · 10/12/2013 10:37

Aisha I read that it takes 15 mins for any swimmers that are gonna make it to get into where they need to be. I've also read contradictory articles that say 2 hours!! I always aim to lay down for 30 mins if possible.

RoseHoney · 10/12/2013 11:11

Aisha, I've also read the same as Lara however this time I got up within 5 mins (we only DTD once last month so I know it was that occasion I got pregnant) and here I am!! I'd say 15 mins is fine Smile

SoMuchFruit · 10/12/2013 11:21

Hi Choccy, so nice to see you back Smile and your house sounds amazing! I hope you are all very happy there.

Congrats to all the BFP's! Amazing Christmas BFP Bus is right! Thanks

Huge luck for Ofsted Lucy - am sure it will be fine!

Am hanging in there, haven't tested. Was determined not to until AF was actually late. She's due today, have (I think) had some random, very faint crampy feelings so I'd guess she's on the way Sad.

Otherwise no real 'symptoms' (unless you include having lots of saliva (???) and having a total aversion to Pesto suddenly)

Unusually for this late in my cycle I have had a lot of what looked like EWCM but wetter and not as stretchy. Intermittently (TMI coming up!) ... mixed with creamy, thicker CM. Not sure what that's about. Anyone else get this just before AF ?
