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!

Good luck Spinning Your dedication definitely deserves success!

linda I think youre right. It goes so fast! I might also swap wine for vodka in that case.

... just texting DP about picking up some pineapple on the way home...

Starbright24 · 21/03/2014 21:46

Dammit. Why do I feel bloated and rubbish tonight Sad
And watching Aliens definitely isn't romantic!! Confused

Owlie84 · 21/03/2014 22:02

Great film though! :)

lindamagoo · 21/03/2014 22:05

Better than my night, watching bloody google box with a very grumpy man, I'll be going to bed drunk and alone tonight Hmm

lindamagoo · 21/03/2014 22:22

Hmmmmmmm I'm defo going to bed alone anyway cause he's fell asleep again Angry 2 nights in a row so I'm pretty p'd off...

Starbright24 · 21/03/2014 22:35

Was that too much vodka?

Getting a bfp definitely isn't easy by yourself. Men - we gotta love them but sometimes they really don't get it do they.
I had quite a few angry and upset nights last cycle.

MissMrsMummy · 22/03/2014 00:24

CD5 and AF is just about finishing.

Need a bit of motivation. Feel like we won't be able to muster up the energy to dtd this cycle. We hardly used to before ttc. Don't know how we will manage this cycle!

Doing all the extra steps eg vits etc but what if we can't even manage sex?! We are a bit deflated and DH is so busy and tired from work :-/

Anyone else feel like this?

MissMrsMummy · 22/03/2014 00:24

Sorry linda that's crap Sad

Treaclepie19 · 22/03/2014 00:51

Yes missmrs, I do. Having a shit time at work, feel like crying tonight.
Despite having a lovely night out with family!
I feel like leaving my job cus ive had enough but if i do we have to stop ttc. If i got pregnant at least id be happy about that and not have to worry about work so much.

Ugh. Sorry.

lindamagoo · 22/03/2014 07:59

Morning ladies Smile no hangover and we did dtd last night Smile he woke up not long after I went to bed and he was in a much better mood. I'm used to the no sex part as we hardly do it in our old age anyway, lol, but his bad mood was crap, he's never like that, we have such a laugh all the time so I'm blaming the vodka and banning it from the house Smile

lindamagoo · 22/03/2014 08:00

On a happier note it's officially my first 2ww Smile

victoria401 · 22/03/2014 08:17

I also have trouble convincing DH to dtd so frequently as we hardly used to do it at all before ttc. Once a month if I was lucky! I keep saying once he gets me upduffed we can go back to being few times a year people but until then he has to play his part! Didn't think it would be 16 month later and still no bfp though! Why do I feel bad for asking him to make love to his wife?! I work full time and get tired too :-(

spinningirl10 · 22/03/2014 08:22

Morning all :)

Treacle....sorry you're having a bad time at work. Is it your job or the people you're having a hard time with? Thanks

Linda....Yay, not the 2ww begins!

No positive opk for me yesterday despite pee'ing on 4 tests throughout the day just incase!! They did get darker so I think it will be today.
We didn't dtd after dp's night shift, he was really tired so I'm waiting for him to wake up!!! :)

lindamagoo · 22/03/2014 08:30

Spinning I never got a proper +opk but my body tells me I ov'd so I'm presuming the dark 1 I had on Thu was my +...

Victoria it's horrible isn't it? You feel like they should always want to have sex with you, this is just our first month ttc again and he's already had enough, hmmmm, took us a year last time so he better get used to it again, lol...

toots123 · 22/03/2014 08:31

Morning!!

Linda... enjoy the tww!

I had anothet flashing smiley this morning. That must be a new record!! Today is cd 19 so hoping I ovulate soon!! Glad I got the box of 20 cd digi opks!!!

dropping dh off at the train station soon as he is out with his friends today... cant wait to get home, do some housework then chill!!

Semirural · 22/03/2014 08:50

Morning, I'm hoping more folk join with a bfp due at the end of April or I might be last on the bus. Blush

We tried a few months back before deciding to wait until now, but I remember my first tww. I was a crazed women and became uber sensitive to any twinge. On the plus side, my diet was the healthiest ever and I remembered to take folic acid / vit d as oppose to forgetting like most days.

I'm off to google my edd...

Semirural · 22/03/2014 08:54

Ps - toots, enjoy your day chilling. I love the odd day when dh is away and I have a day where I clean like a demon and then potter around drinking coffee and reading magazines Brew

Starbright24 · 22/03/2014 08:57

Yes..also peed off with dp who came to bed after me last night and who wouldn't perform this morning and said 'what difference does a day make?' Grrrr. To be fair, he does have a bad back and is in pain but I still get annoyed.
Fx for hoping I still got some swimmers from wednesday.

Yay linda happy 2ww

wow. Just read back this page. We need some happy mojo :)

lindamagoo · 22/03/2014 09:01

We are taking the kids to bongos soft play area today, I'm so looking forward to acting like a big kid Smile might even go to McDonald's afterwards. Let the fun commence Grin

Treaclepie19 · 22/03/2014 09:10

Thanks spinning, its a bit of both at the moment really. Mainly the people.

Jo178 · 22/03/2014 09:28

Hi, been on and off the bus since Jan. Here are my stats:
Jo178 ttc#2 cycle 3 bfp due 2nd April.
I was getting worried as since I came off the horrible cerazette, I've been ovulating really late (cd21/22) with a LP of around 9 days.
I seem to have fixed it this month though by taking various vitamins and herbal remedies as I had a positive opk yesterday on cd16! Could all be just a fluke though and is just my body naturally readjusting! Fingers crossed April is a good month for us all. Fingers crossed for lots of BFPs!

Starbright24 · 22/03/2014 09:42

Welcome jo

Have fun linda lol. Make lots of noise! And treacle hope you have a good weekend away from work.

Think it's time for me to get up and join in with the cleaning. My house is going to sparkle by the end of theday! perhaps

Spotti · 22/03/2014 09:52

Happy mojo in the form of more dragon pictures?

This is my new favourite dragon pic. Technically not a 'penis' dragon, but you can't help but look at this pic and go "awww, they've got an egg!" Grin.

Linda - I like the sound of the soft play! Not keen on mcdonalds (I'm gluten intolerant anyway so couldn't eat it even if I wanted to) but the idea of a treat/junk food dinner sounds like good fun!

Come one, come all: hop onboard the penis dragon bus and hold on tight for your BFP in April!

Oh treacle it's awful when you're unhappy at work, I hope it improves for you soon. Maybe there's someone there that you could speak to?

Yay....a positive opk for me followed by dtd!!!! Go spermies!!! Grin

Sparrowlegs248 · 22/03/2014 10:56

Phew!! Just read back three pages!

Well - my mood has definitely swung! AF has fecked off, I am happy and chipper and we dtd this morning cd6 AND the sun is shining!! Yey!!!!

I was sooooo miserable and irritable this AF it was untrue, but today i feel like the happy switch has been flicked.

Still no luck getting a docs appointment, which is super annoying bastard receptionists How about you owlie?

Thanks for the super list spotti I think my edd will be 23rd december! Eek. My brother was 26th (and is called Robin...)

Hi victoria it looks like we are the longest standing passengers on the bus. Good luck to you this month.

I also have the day alone and it will pan out in much the same way as yours semirural I really prefer cleaning while DH is out.

Re the diy stuff. DH def. partakes. Sometimes (when i have af or prior to ttc, it would be a mutual occurance (sorry tmi) so I don't think he'd mind if we tried the diy route. Last cycle we dtd late one night, then in the morning, then tried again at night and he struggled to finish. I think we need to space it out a bit more!

Happy Saturday dragon lovers!
