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.

Ohhhh kitty! You will be fine :) they obviously loved you so just do what you do.

KittyVonCatsington · 18/06/2014 19:14

Yay! Back from the doctors. She thinks that my back rash is just hives due to an 'allergy' but nothing to do with ovulation. Still really weird tough and I'll be interested to see what happens in future cycles.

The Assistant Head who saw me yesterday, Treacle asked if I'd mind a Headteacher popping in to my period 2 lesson and I said fine. This morning I get a schedule with OFSTED at the top and my period 2 lesson blocked out and with a 15 minutes slot during lunch to get my feedback. Takes the piss! A BIG favour is owed to me I think Grin

Treaclepie19 · 18/06/2014 19:51

Definitely owed big time kitty!

I'm unsure whether I'm even going in tomorrow. Today's been a struggle. I know I'll stress about what I should be doing if I don't go but if I do I am struggling to cope.
Driving myself crazy!

KittyVonCatsington · 18/06/2014 20:27

You need to heal, treacle and it sounds like you need time and space to do that. I'm guessing that you are juggling grief, with teacher guilt. You don't want to let anyone down, with sports day and your class for example, but you need to grieve too.

Get some paper, and make a two column list: Treacle's needs vs. Job needs

List what you want to be able to do, in an ideal world, right now if you weren't at work.
In the job needs, write down what needs to be done at work, essentially.

Now look at solutions. How can your job needs be fixed and where you will get the opportunities to fulfil your needs.
Then, use the job needs column to have a chat with your Head. Going to her with your potential worries, and with solutions, should get some results (if your Head is decent)

Use the treacle needs column to start giving you some tlc. Small steps, sweetie. Please don't get overwhlemed no matter how all encompassing it gets. Xxxx

Want to throw my remote at the new stupid pregnacare vitamins advert. Bastards.

Treaclepie19 · 18/06/2014 20:31

Thank you kitty. That's exactly what I'm doing. I need to be away and alone to process everything but I can't bear letting everyone down.

I'll get looking at that. If im honest I just want to stay home and maybe go to the doctors for some advice but that's a scary thought of letting everyone down and missing inductions. I'd have to write my reports anyway.

cinnamongreyhound · 18/06/2014 20:45

Feeling rubbish :( been getting worse as the day has gone one. Nausea on and off, headache and general bleurghness but now I have mega sore throat.

How do you all get on with persuading your oh to have sex? Mine is less interested than me generally anyway but we usually manage 2-3 times a week when not trying. He was too tired last night :( and now I feel rubbish so he will say 'you don't really want to just want to get pregnant' very frustrating!

lp2014 · 18/06/2014 20:45

Sending you a big treacle x

lp2014 · 18/06/2014 20:47

Hug, treacle x

Treaclepie19 · 18/06/2014 20:47

Thank you xxx

lp2014 · 18/06/2014 20:49

Sorry you're feeling rotten cinnamon! My dh is quite good with making the most of my most fertile time. I try not to make it too much about ttc so he doesn't feel i only want one thing! Xx

PickledPorcupine · 18/06/2014 20:54

Thanks everyone. It's been a weird few weeks!

One thing I'm so glad for is that we've started trying now; we thought about doing a bit more travel and putting it off for a few years but something was nagging me in the back of my mind to get on with it. So glad I listened to my instincts.

Choccywoccydodah · 18/06/2014 20:56

Cinnamon I only want to at the moment to get pregnant. And?
Tell him if he doesn't, you'll find someone who does! ;)

KittyVonCatsington · 18/06/2014 21:04

Men! How else are you going to get pregnant!!?? It's hardly as if sex is a tortuous experience for them Grin It can be frustrating but hopefully your DH will see sense cinnamon. Oh and when I feel rough (always during ovulation!!) I just suck it up and think baby!!

LadyNovember · 18/06/2014 21:37

Is it too late to join? :)

KittyVonCatsington · 18/06/2014 21:58

Hi LadyNovember - plenty of seats free Grin

kurama · 18/06/2014 23:07

Starting to feel a bit better today and af seems to have buggered off but dh to tired to do anything tonight..... It's been almost 3 weeks, not sure how much longer I can go withoutHmm I know his work is hard etc but he's being a bit of a dick this last week. Will read back later, hope everyone's feeling ok x

KittyVonCatsington · 19/06/2014 06:42

Hope your DH feels in the mood soon kurama

I am sooooo confused!! My BBT temp went up again today! CD7 and just spotting very lightly at end of AF. My temp was 36.84 WTF!!!????? Higher than some of my post ovulation temps last cycle.
It hasn't got below 36.70 yet. Hope it goes down soon otherwise I'll be pissed off if I'm in for another annovulatory cycle. Guess I'll just have to see what happens over the next few days. Grrrrr!

Wish me luck ladies, going in to work early to prepare for stupid OFSTED "training" observation Angry
Will try not to focus too much on my BBT temps Grin

spinningirl10 · 19/06/2014 07:12

Morning ladiesGrin

Just popping on from the June bus to catch up. It's very quiet over there.
I'm 11dpo and a bfn this morning so I think I'll be joining you soon.

Kitty, good luck with your observation today and I hope your temp changes soon and you ov.

Kurama, hopefully your dh will be rating to go in time for ovGrin

lp2014 · 19/06/2014 07:12

Good luck! Xx

kurama · 19/06/2014 07:32

thanks Smile hes on hol next week so should be nice and relaxed in time for ov Wink

spinningirl10 · 19/06/2014 07:36

Ah Kurama, perfect timing Grin

Choccywoccydodah · 19/06/2014 08:43

Good luck kitty :)

Kurama great timing!!

Have started on the pink grapefruit juice again. Haven't bothered for the last 3 months, but I don't really want to take the progesterone this month as it didn't work the last 3 in helping it stick so I've upped my folic acid to 5 tablets, 1 b6 and pink grapefruit. If forgotten how foul the first taste is!!

notoasthere · 19/06/2014 09:24

We've got a demanding toddler and he's got a demanding job....if we weren't ttc then we probably wouldn't bother with sex so ttc is actually good for us Grin Grin

LadyNovember · 19/06/2014 09:31

Thanks kitty :)

LadyNovember, 25, ttc #1, cycle 2, BFP due 19th July (I think!)

Good luck everyone x
