just sorted kids out..so thought Id scroll through posts, and want to congratulate Linda!

Heres hoping for an easy pregnancy for you..Linda did you post symptoms previously?

Ive been having cramps for a few days..this morning most severe.whenever I get cramps my af usually appears after a few days, as yet nothing..I cannot remember if I felt symptoms before..but dont know if im just hoping too much? Had mild backache this afternoon, but dates are telling me af not due til 11th May..? could I have dates wrong! (ive always been irregular)

lindamagoo · 04/05/2014 18:39

Thanks tobiano Smile my main symptoms are cramps and lots of creamy cervical lucas, it never dried up at all after ovulation, my temp stayed high and my cervix stayed high aswell

tobiano · 04/05/2014 18:48

yes - sorry to be blunt..but I keep running to the loo checking myself as I can feel a 'wetness', just as it feels when af rears its ugly head..

but no blood, spotting, tender boobs etc....nothing..just the cramps, backache..infact the pain this afternoon was one sided and stabbing!!

lindamagoo · 04/05/2014 18:55

My boobs aren't sore yet either, a little heavy/full feeling but not sore. And my sense of smell has stepped up it's game today, so much so that I can only eat toast, everything else smells too strong

Mam31 · 04/05/2014 19:35

Spinning I'm good thanks....apart from not being preggers and on cycle 12! but stopped counting cycles days and opks....just shagging now! And hoping it will happen. Keeping the faith though as always! Hope you are doing ok x

spinningirl10 · 04/05/2014 19:39

Good to hear you're ok Mama and just shagging sounds goodGrin are you still having reflexology?

MelMc73 · 04/05/2014 20:04

Linda I sm gagging at the smell of dh's wine tonight....a very new experience for me lol! Also feeling very bloated and fat

KittyVonCatsington · 04/05/2014 20:06

Cycle 12 already! So so sorry to hear that mama. There is something to be said for just shagging as nature intended. I really really hope you get your BFP

Congratulations to all the BFPs! It's so lovely to have good news and keeps us all in a positive frame of mind. This WILL be our month and the Jan/Feb antenatal board will have an influx of dragon graduates!
Hello to all the newbies too, this is such a lovely, fun bus.
Have resisted poas today (proud) even though I had bfp with DD at 9dpo. Not sure how much longer I can stop myself though, I had to run to the loo and flush it quickly before temptation set in!

Symptomless so far though aside from a few periody cramps and odd one sided stitchy, stabby pains earlier which felt just like O pains. Why does ttc make me crazy?!

lindamagoo · 04/05/2014 20:21

Mel I was the same with oh's drink last night, boak.

rambini · 04/05/2014 20:41

So lovely to have such a fun, positive bus. Hopefully the relaxed nature of it will make us all get bfps Smile
I too have been thinking about choccy and hoping no news is good news.
In the rambini house we are still valiantly dtd, neither of us has keeled over from exhaustion just yet. Only a matter of time though! Still 3 weeks til af/bfp due if I have another 36 day cycle which feels like an eternity but am more than happy to ride the bus and wave pom poms for all my fellow dragons in the meantime Smile

Spotti · 04/05/2014 20:52

Yay mel.

Lol at linda - I'm not sure explaining to the MN admin peeps how penis dragons make us pregnant would make them bring George back. Maybe if we just keep posting Dragon where we would have put George, maybe they'll see how much we used him and give him back...either that or they'll get fed up of us making up our own emoticon thingymabobs and just give in and let us keep him that's my plan anyway

Rawr!

RetroHippy · 04/05/2014 20:56

Well, Lucas has arrived! At the expected time and of the required consistency no more custardy gussets here

Also feeling rather fruity this evening, drinking the Champers that was intended for my birthday... Wondering if it's best to wait till tomorrow to DTD though as I'm still a little tender in my special place Grin will just have to tell DH to make sure I'm really warmed up... Can I use that excuse every time? Grin

Champagne's bloody marvellous. As, apparently, is being 30. Been packing up the spare room full of my shit today, despite not having a moving date yet, I'm getting excited!

EnglishGirlAbroad · 04/05/2014 20:57

Hey ladies!!
Mother of all hangovers here!! Congratulations Mel!!Grin
Serenity - implantation bleeding usually occurs between 6-10dpo, 9 is most common.

10dpo here and tummy feels very weird. Prob just too much alcohol! Losing positivity by the hour

RetroHippy · 04/05/2014 21:00

Oh, and Dragon Dragon Dragon

bellaboo88 · 04/05/2014 21:09

Congrats Mel!! More positive pics & stats tomorrow please!!

Bored of joyriding now, I want to be a proper passenger!

Xx

victoria401 · 04/05/2014 21:09

Evening ladies & congrats Mel!

Cd6 here and still have brown sludge :-( yuck. Feeling oddly fruity tho.

Decided not drinking caffeine or no where near enough as much wine. Really craving wine today!

Waffleyversatile · 04/05/2014 21:15

congrats mel

well I decided to poas again and got a bfn. af due either Thursday or Friday. still getting cramps so that's been a weel now. got my solid smiley face on thursday 25 april so how many days post ovulation am I?? im getting so impatient.

Viperama · 04/05/2014 21:23

Bfn for me last night. Been travelling since this morning so couldn't update sooner. DP and I v sad... again!

But Linda he's already consented to the softcups + preseed.

At what point in your cycle did you start using and what time of day? I almost think we could do morning and eve in fertile days?

No AF yet, but I know it's coming Sad

Viperama · 04/05/2014 21:41

Omgosh kitty that is awful, I've had it happen after towelling down and that was bad enough! Did you manage to maintain cover??

macmissy · 04/05/2014 21:50

well done ladies on your BFP's! sorry to those who have had that unwelcome visitor. she'll get the message - treat her like a door to door sales person. she'll give up knocking eventually?

I'm still in the 2ww and as ever... massively impatient. it's been ok this weekend as we've been away with OH and DSS. full packed, but now it's all I can think about again. Damn my mind!

lindamagoo · 04/05/2014 21:54

Viperama we used them on cd 9, 11, 12, 14 and 16 and normal dtd on cd 7 + 13. Just in the evening and kept it in for 6 to 12 hrs, you can still do everything as normal with them in, bathroom, shower, bath and all that. Defo worth a try Smile

Viperama here's a link to some info about it. Hope the link works.

MissMrsMummy · 04/05/2014 22:15

Whaaaaaaat.... So many posts! I am lost! I will read back in a minute.

No bfp for me this time. AF is here.

The good news is that I have two shots at May so I am getting comfy on this bus - I'm here right 'til the end!
