Welcome aboard ladies!
Get your pom poms in the air, as well as your ass (post dtd!) and we might get somewhere!
Here's to some BFPs! Wine

I can't imagine booze causing too much trouble in the tww unless you're permanently sozzled...beans got yolk sac to sustain it until placenta grows...just thinking of all the 1night stands & preggers I know x

aenor · 28/02/2014 22:27

I think we're OK prior to implantation - hence all those alcoholic one night stands not having an effect.

After that, the bean is nestling into the lining of the womb and I think there are blood vessels there. Two weeks after ovulation the spine, nervous system and brain are forming, and i think that's a delicate time.

I guess I'm just scared and everything I read makes me more scared. What if I do it wrong and ruin the bean's life. And then sod's law I'll get another BFN and have spent another month of my life in a big old funk!

EnglishGirlAbroad · 28/02/2014 23:15

Hey ladies, just thought I'd pop my head in before I hop into bed. Hope you all have lovely weekends. We have friends over so will prob enjoy a few drinks .... I'm a bit merry now!! Drunk DTD is always more fun!!
Hope we see some BFPs soon!!

Thanks for the penis dragons too posy, really made me chuckle! WinkSmile

Treaclepie19 · 28/02/2014 23:27

Enjoy your weekend English :)
You are right, drunk DTD is more fun. I'm on the prosecco now :)

KittyVonCatsington · 01/03/2014 06:46

Well, hello March!!! February bus boardee seeking a ticket for the March bus please!

My stats are: TTC #1, cycle 4, BFP Due 30th March. Had a chemical pregnancy last cycle and hoping against hope that I am one of the lucky ones and get a BFP the cycle straight after.

Have stocked up on supplies: green pom poms, OPKs, Vits, inc. extra B6, more FRERs and am ready for DTD marathon in roughly 7 days time. Here's to wishing that the holy fire breathing penis dragon brings me luck!!! Grin

Choccywoccydodah · 01/03/2014 06:47

Ds has SERIOUSLY got to stop waking at 5.45am!!
So unbelievably knackered it's untrue!
He's been at 7.15/7.30 for weeks, had one night at my parents 2 Fridays ago due to the house being filled with dust and he woke there at 5.15 and we've had earlies ever since!
Really having a ttc effect too as I'm asleep on the sofa by 9.30.
So tired!!
I had more sleep when he was a baby! Yawn.

What we all up to this weekend?

Re the drinking, I'm not, but I'm not a drinker anyway so I don't miss it.

Welcome Kitty, really hope this is your month Smile
I'm taking vitex too, mainly to try to stabilise my hormones after my mc. We'll see if it works.

Shall we tell the conductor it's time to get this bus out of the station! Go driver, go!! Grin

Choccywoccydodah · 01/03/2014 06:50

Good luck Kitty. So sorry about your chemical, it's a bastard. A few of us have been there!!
Fingers crossed for March Smile

Morning! Hope you all enjoyed your drunk dtd last night Grin

So, I used a digi this morning: Pregnant 2-3. Eeek. It just doesn't feel real. I guess I can say it's a BFP now though - I really, really hope it sticks.

Happy March ladies - let's hope this is the month for all of us Smile

(PS would you mind if I kept my seat on the bus please, or at least hung off the pole on the back waving my green pom poms, you are all fab)

Choccywoccydodah · 01/03/2014 06:58

Sara!!! Eeeeeek indeed!!! Congratulations, how exciting!!!
Our first official March confirmed BFP!! Woohoo!

Tigsy, how'd you get on?

SaRaRaRaRa · 01/03/2014 07:02

Thanks, Choccy! DS is also waking with the larks these past few days - hence the early test.

Kitty, sorry to hear about your chem, fx for this month x

KittyVonCatsington · 01/03/2014 07:08

SaRa-what a wonderful way to start the March bus-congratulations!! Thanks you must be made up! This is a good sign for mama31's 31 day prediction

Congrats Sarararara. That's fab!

lindamagoo · 01/03/2014 07:49

SaRaRa SmileSmileSmile I knew it would be a BFP for you this morning. Congrats huni ThanksThanksThanks

toots123 · 01/03/2014 07:55

Hi girls. Thought I would pop in and say hello.
im still in limbo and currently cd50 with bfn so current stats are ttc#1 cycle 3 bfp/af due ages ago!!!!

if af is to turn up I would like it to happen soon so we can get on with trying! I keep thinking she is here due to all the cramps but nothing. Anyone who has advice for me would be greatly appreciated xx

barmybunting · 01/03/2014 07:57

Sarara that's brilliant, how exciting!! Grin Delighted to see you starting off the March bus with your bfp. Please stick around and let us know how it all goes.

I was a tad surprised when I woke up this morning. I'm 7dpo today, nothing exciting happening so far except work has kept me busy all week so I'm not overthinking the tww for once. But on waking up, my breasts are all swollen/sore and nipples are erect and won't disappear. I had this last cycle for about a week starting on 10dpo and thought it was linked to what I think was a chem preg after two positive tests. But to to be happening so early in the tww, it must just be a new thing for post ov for me as it's too early for anything else. Oh well, you learn something new every day!

katecupoftea · 01/03/2014 08:08

Good morning March bus! Make room please!

I'm over from the Feb bus and need a seat! I got struck by af yesterday to end the bad luck February bus nicely so looks like I will be on this bus to the end.

Stats: TTC#1, cycle 2, BFP due 28th March.

1/31 so far, congrats SaRa! Toots, how you holding up? I'm really feeling for you in limbo land, sorry I can't offer useful advice.

Good luck to anyone else testing today! That means you Mama!

MrsGingerbread · 01/03/2014 08:11

Hello everyone! Can I join your bus please!

Hopefully a bfp for us on 22nd March. Ttc #1 cycle 1 of 'trying properly' ;)
