Hi everyone, I know this is probably a bit early (since it isn't July yet) but I thought I would start a new thread for those who lost their tickets for previous busses and for those who are beginning their bus journey now. Please feel free to add your stats to the list and grab a good seat while you can. Best of luck to everyone TTC and I look forward to getting many BFP's posted on here.

*so many

Yer unfortunately it seems I rather upset him for registering interest without talking to him properly first...... He's crap with anything emotional and takes forever to get an answer out of him. He thinks we're not ready to look after someone else's child..... I don't get his logic. Ah well will just have to see what happensConfused

kurama · 20/06/2014 00:01

Dh thinks I'd get too attached to any child we took in and would rather raise our own 1st. Fair point. It's such a shame tho. Yer I was wondering that about our family's too!

toothachereturns · 20/06/2014 00:25

Can I tentatively be added to the stats?
ttc #3 cycle5 (mc c3, cp c4). bfp due 17th July.

toothachereturns · 20/06/2014 00:29

kurama - fostering is such a roller coaster. I'd love to do it but I would want all of them to stay with me! Hats off to every foster carer. what a special job that is. x Smile

FoscarC · 20/06/2014 03:03

Hi. I am new to all this too. Have just started ttc. Am 8dpo so due af around 26 June. Although my cycles are not hugely regular. This is my first cycle ttc. Would love to join the bus!

notoasthere · 20/06/2014 05:16

Hello to all the newbies and thanks to Aprilray for the stats

Toddler has decided 445 is his new wake up time this week.....it really isn't helping me cut my caffeine intake!

KittyVonCatsington · 20/06/2014 06:50

Hi Foscar - welcome!
Sorry you got woken so early notoasthere - must be really heard TTC with a toddler!

Treacle Observation went fine, thank god. Especially as in the period before mine, a Sciene lab fridge stopped working and some chemicals expanded so they had to evacuate that section of the school and get the services in. Loads of my pupils didn't have their bags etc. so had to think on my feet re booklets, pens etc. These things are sent to try us!

Finally- my bbt temp is down to where it should be! 36.53. I must have really high progesterone still when AF is here.

The weekend is he! Let's see how many March babies we can make, ladies Wink

KittyVonCatsington · 20/06/2014 06:51

here not 'he' Grin

Treaclepie19 · 20/06/2014 07:09

That's great kitty, glad it went well. Even with what was going on!

My temp is still raised :/ only slightly so maybe it will raise lots more for ovulation.

xBlueberry88x · 20/06/2014 07:17

Looks like I have a few cycle buddies this month.

Feeling a bit down after my gynae app yesterday but i'll pick myself up.

Nice to see everyone from the june bus although sorry it wasnt a bfp instead

notoasthere · 20/06/2014 08:05

It's at least encouraging us to have sex, otherwise we wouldn't bother! 1dpo here - the tww begins!

Rainbow555 · 20/06/2014 08:18

Just bought some OV testing strips online...is there a time of day thing with these to or can I poas anytime??

laurano81 · 20/06/2014 08:23

I hope you are all ok xx I saw this today & thought of us all x

Hey Lauren, that's fab!
And it is nice to see people working towards March babies as well!!
And another well done April for getting everyone's numbers in..

Nearly the weekend xx

kurama · 20/06/2014 09:55

rainbow generally the first time you go to loo after waking up is best as it has the higher concentration of hormones. Or drink very little and try to wait 4 hours before going again ! Wink

Cpt1sock · 20/06/2014 10:00

Morning Smile

kitty at least you bothered to look it up! When I was thinking about it I just thought it would keep in the fridge ;) good news is he's wangled his way out of it! Woo!

I'm off to dc2 school for the day to get ready for the summer fair. My house looks like a bombs gone off so being at school is the better of 2 evils! I won't be back until 8ish tonight so have a great Friday everyone!

chillipopcorn · 20/06/2014 11:59

Thanks for all the welcomes! It's good to have other people willing to chat EWM etc with :) who don't gross out! I'm irrationally terrified it won't work out for us - DH was with his ex using the withdrawal 'method' for years without any accidents yet 6 months into her next relationship she got knocked up by accident Hmm! Makes me think there might be a problem there...just need to keep reminding myself of the statistics I guess Wink happy Friday all!

Choccywoccydodah · 20/06/2014 14:13

Sorry to disagree kurama but Rainbow with cheap ov testing strips (ones I've always used) you do not use fmu as it's too concentrated, you need to do them between 10am and 8pm for proper results. If urine is too concentrated you can get a false positive. HTH :)
I think the ov monitors are fmu though.

Brummiegirl15 · 20/06/2014 16:29

Re the cheap internet tests. I've just bought the Clearblue dual hormone tests from Boots and the instructions specifically say fmu

But when I used internet cheapie ones they said test from 10am onwards

laurano81 · 20/06/2014 16:39

ChandlersFarang thanks! I am very sore & feeling sorry for myself! Here I am TTC & my back is now very sore! Great! Sad! Anyway I am not normaly a negative person, so f**k it all! & I just have to get on with it Grin! This month I took Agnus Castus from CD6, (well that is when I bought it).,.. I am still taking it...last month I Ovulated on CD17 & had a LP of 13 days! Before Agnus Castus, I was ovulated on CD18/19 & had a LP of 10 days, with spotting on 9dpo...I did have a teeny bit of spotting 11dpo & 12dpo...but it really was very very little compared to 9dpo the month before! I really think it worked for me! Also during acupuncture, he put electricity through the needles by my ovaries...to get them to Ovulate! I actually think if yer man didn't crash in to me, I would have made it to 14dpo! The seat belt really hurt my stomach, as it keep me in place when he hit me! I started bleeding at the docs 30mins later & there was a lot of blood! Usually, I start spotting then light AF! So it was defo from the crash!

Laurano81 that sounds horrid. Hope you're ok.

Just to fill in my missing info - I am 32 (about to turn 33) and am ttc for the first time.

Just retuned from honeymoon so plenty of dtd this month! Now just waiting to see if af arrives or if I can poas. Will be poas 5 July unless af comes before then.

Am certainly learning alot from all of you. If dh and I are not lucky this month I may be trying some of the bits that have been mentioned on here. I am sort of guessing when I iv from time of the month and ewcm but have no idea really.

FoscarC · 20/06/2014 16:53

*ov not iv!!

laurano81 · 20/06/2014 16:56

Aprilray I have been going to acupuncture since the start of March, I had to take precious sea herbs....after AF to OV. Harmonizing the Moon & then after Ov. to AF Planting Seeds...I had a strange AF the month I took them...10 day AF, 5 of them with brown yuk blood, then my boobs felt like they would burst CD6, and I had really really heavy bleeding from cd6-9.., & then AF stopped CD10...I also had very painful ov. & I even bleeded ...that never happens,...he gave me a prescript this month for herbs but I didn't get them, as I started taking the Agnus Cactus & I felt that was enough to do right now!
