The long awaited April bus for those penis-dragon-worshipping, green pom pom waving, non symptom spotting ladies who will get their BFP this month!

I wasn't keen in a December baby mainly due to there being so many birthdays in our family in Dec and early Jan but actually I quite like the idea of a little christmas present.

Rachie I'm not sure I'm brave enough to test on the weekend and I've just examined my ic and they are out of date! I'm going to try to hold out until af is due and use a decent quality test I know I'm going to pee on my out of date sticks at 10dpo really, I'm in denial!

KittyVonCatsington · 31/03/2014 19:11

Evening all!
Think it's time I moved over from the March bus-very very late ovulation has meant I have bypassed March altogether, considering CD1 was 26th February!!

So updated, but fairly random stats: KittyVonCatsington TTC #1 Cycle# 4 BFP Due 5th April EDD 12th December according to ovulation date. Going to POAS on Saturday if AF stays away.

My favourite due date calculator is this one:www.countdowntopregnancy.com/tools/due-date-calculator.php it tells you so much, such as baby's first heartbeat and even what season maternity clothes you will need!

Oh god, my body is playing games with me. Got very definite ewcm, haven't poa opk as its driving me insane. Feel a slight ache on my left handside, I guess near ovary. We've dtd the last 4 days... really not up for another session but will kick myself if i don't and af comes...

I'm well up for a christmas baby. My mums bday is just before christmas and we've always made an extra effort to make it special. C'mon egg, burst from that ovary and give me my christmas bean!

xBlueberry88x · 31/03/2014 19:41

I really dont care when baby comes as long as I have one lol waited to long now.

just wish it would hurry up everything takes so long.

rambini · 31/03/2014 19:49

Hi all, I am really sorry to post on here moaning, especially as I have been very quiet as have taken a step back from the buses for the last few weeks. But I am so upset and need someone to talk to who understands :-( basically today at school my TA told me deligtedly that she is pregnant with her 2nd child. Then proceeded to tell me in great detail how she "just couldnt BELIEVE it! I have only been off the pill a week before I fell pregnant!" Then to top it off she told me how pissed off she was with people critising her 10 a day smoking habit and how she didnt care and had no intention of cutting down or stopping. I really like her but I felt so angry and I just can't bear the thought of spending the next 9 months seeing her everyday. I know I am a horrible person and I should be really happy for her but I just cant muster it at the minute Sad

9/10dpo bfn! Brown spotting started early this morning, so think I'm out this month.
So much for agnus castus, b6, and evening primrose sorting out my late ov and short lp!

toots123 · 31/03/2014 19:54

Hi girls! Havent been on much but thought I would say hello.

7dpo but wont test for at least another week!
kitty that link is fab!! My edd 15th dec!! I was bothered about Christmas baby but now on cycle 4 so I dont care!!!

dont have high hopes for this cycle as we didnt dtd much but we did do it on day of solid smiley!!! Fx

toots123 · 31/03/2014 19:57

Rambini that must be so hard! Not sure how you managed to bite your tongue as I would have said something

try and keep your distance if you can. Xx

KittyVonCatsington · 31/03/2014 20:15

People like that make me want to scream, rambini - the smoking attitude alone is enough! Unfortunately, Nature doesn't discriminate and you end up with unfair situations like yours today. Being your TA, I understand you will have to work closely with her, so I would just keep yourself extra busy with the pupils and try and zone her out. If she keeps going on about it, don't feel you have to bottle it in!

toots - how are you my old cycle buddy Wink I'm going to test on Saturday, if you're game!

Spotti · 31/03/2014 20:16

Poly - my dragon egg pendant hasn't arrive either...I think it did say something about 7-10 days (for the freebie postage anyway), and I'm pretty sure it's only been a few days. Will kick up a fuss if it's not here by the end of the week though!

And kitty - that link is pretty cool. Not sure it's very accurate if you have a longer than the average 28 day cycle (mine seems to be 35 days at the mo). Had to laugh at the suggestion of maternity clothes for summer, autumn and winter! (so just clothes for all year then LOL). Nice to know when baby's first heartbeat etc would be though: :)

I know what you mean, Spotti - I went by the ovulation date instead! Have no idea what the "quickening of the baby" is though Blush

RetroHippy · 31/03/2014 20:29

rambini, I'd have to say something. Along the lines of 'Look, I haven't said anything for obvious reasons, but I've been ttc unsuccessfully for some time. I'm so happy for you, but I'm sure you understand if I find it difficult to discuss pregnancy things. So piss off and leave me alone and I won't make constant snidely references to the fact that you're a twat for smoking.'

Or something like that.

RetroHippy · 31/03/2014 20:30

Kitty, quickening is when you first feel the baby move.

lindamagoo · 31/03/2014 20:33

God I am one moody cow tonight, it's not looking good for me, must be pmt and my poor oh is getting his face chewed off every two seconds for nothing. Feel the rage Angry

EnglishGirlAbroad · 31/03/2014 20:39

Rambini - sorry you get dealt such smug news. And also what a selfish bitch. All of us here would give our left arm for a healthy baby and here she is defiantly smoking and not giving two hoots about the impact it has on the baby! Arse!!

PolytheneGirl · 31/03/2014 20:42

Spotti which one did you order? I think I ordered mine last Tuesday (?)

Rambini I know exactly how you feel. It may be time for some fat ankle comments! Seriously though, I really feel for you having to cope with that every day. I'm only seeing my pg SIL about once a week and I'm in tears every time! When you are upduffed you can be all in her face about how good a job you're doing in comparison!

Linda I am exactly the same, I have been in an awful mood since yesterday morning! snapping and bursting into tears over nothing. I sent myself for a nap this afternoon to try to snap out of it, no such luck! I have no excuse other than this 2ww is driving me crazy, I'm only 5dpo!

Treaclepie19 · 31/03/2014 20:46

Oh Rambini, that sounds terrible!

Also in the grumpy club.
Ugh! Hurry up solid smiley. Cone on Easter BFP and Christmas baby!!!

Treaclepie19 · 31/03/2014 20:47

*come

RetroHippy · 31/03/2014 20:48

Um... I may have missed something; what are these dragon egg pendants you lot are all (minor eggzaggeration haha) ordering? I want one!

PolytheneGirl · 31/03/2014 20:55

Retro look back to 25/3 on this thread.

KittyVonCatsington · 31/03/2014 20:57

Kitty, quickening is when you first feel the baby move.

Ahhh, makes sense, Retro, oh I can't wait for that to happen Grin

Could being grumpy be a new SYMPTOM??!!

PolytheneGirl · 31/03/2014 21:00

Kitty I wish I could pretend it was a SYMPTOM but it's just too early in my case. I've frowned that much today, my head hurts!

PolytheneGirl · 31/03/2014 21:02

Criminal Minds time, Derek Morgan never fails to put a smile on my face Grin

lindamagoo · 31/03/2014 21:03

It is a symptom according to my oh, he sad I was grumpy for 9 months the last time, lol.

Treaclepie19 · 31/03/2014 21:03

Haha, yeah too early for me too. Could be ovulation symptom for me? :p
