Toot Toot! It's the August bus - here to bring us all our hot, hot, hot summer BFPs!

[MrsGingerbread]

August bus welcoming all newbies and experienced TTCers. Let's start the summer loving. :)

Hi Ladies,

Can i join you? Came off Cilest in May. Currently on CD3 after AF was a week late :(

Getting married in 13 days so hopefully we will be successful on the honeymoon/wedding night! Fingers crossed.

Ellstor, 25, ttc no1, cycle 3

Welcome ellstor and Mrsextra and hi to everyone else, Hope you are all ok.

Hope you are feeling better treaclepie

We should start an official list of things to do when AF turns up and gets us down!

taking first place obviously!

AF finally started so am on CD1, fertile time between 23rd and 27th July, BFP due Saturday 9th august! I'm impaitent already!

Luckily I have 3 weeks of annual leave from the 20th so we are planning on DTD everyday from CD4 til day before AF due, fingers crossed this works! DP is very happy with this plan either way Still trying to figure out how to DTD silently while camping though! Very inconvenient timing.

Sounds exhausting bitchpeas haha! I have a similar plan though. Every other day at the minute then every day at suspected ov time.

Bitchpeas- my bfp is due the 9th too! Yes, we'll all be here to cheer eachother up with good ideas and a cocktail idea or two! Although fx we won't need to :-) xx

hi all, hopping on board after AF showed up uninvited on my camping holiday

Stats: Mistywillow, 33, TTC#1, cycle 4, BFP due 8th August.

I have assorted peesticks, conceive plus and bucketloads of pink grapefruit juice. Sod "relaxing and letting it happen", we're going to make it happen this month. [evil and slightly deranged laugh]

Hi Misty! So sorry that the witch got you, and that she tagged along uninvited on your camping holiday - how rude.

I also have assorted pee sticks, but no conceive plus. I hate grapefruit juice but might have to get over that, or start chugging cough medicine!

We are ALL going to make it happen this month. I shall be exceedingly disappointed if the witch gets to any of us.

When do you OPKers start using them? I've not used them before so unsure when to start testing. I'm sure I read day 10 somewhere, but my urge to POAS is unceasing and it's only CD6!

Increasing, not unceasing. Although that applies too!

Ohhh what does grapefruit juice do? I really love it so wouldn't mind drinking gallons!

Hi All,

Sorry I've not managed to read through as I've had a hectic weekend.

So I've decided to start taking the provera tomorrow. I'm feeling really anxious now I know we are actually starting the ball rolling!

I think grapefruit juice is supposed to increase the amount of EWCM (the good type for conception) but someone more knowledgeable might be able to correct me!

Have you done enough dtd running up to ovulation HopefulMum111?

Hopefullymum I feel the same... Unless I ov on day 14 exactly DH won't be here :( must stay positive

6 pages already! Well, I'm officially here with you.

MaMaPo, 36, TTC#2, cycle 3, bfp due 6 August.

Waving hi to everyone.

So cd10 here so now on the cbfm and it's a high so hoping for a peak in the next few days. Wondering what the hell my body will do as after 3 months of 30/31 day cycles last months was 26 days. Maybe it just didn't want me to waste hpts!

Sorry AF got the new joiners but am hoping for a really positive august!

Hi Ladies,

Can I jump aboard the August bus? The old hag dragged me off the July bus, kicking & screaming ! I only had a luteal phase of 10 days cycle 8! Af arrived this morning, which should have been 11DPO! NOT impressed! So I begin again, hello CD1 x

laurano81, 32, TTC#2, 9, BFP due 9th-11th August

Hi laurano81! Sorry to see you here :( but let's look to a positive August :)

Hi Laurano! Sorry to hear AF got you but this is a good bus to be on - we're all getting BFPs this month, I've decided.

In other news, I've hit new heights of insanity. Worked out it's likely I'll OV next Tues, so made an excuse to rearrange dinner with a friend to maximise chances of DP and I doing it!

Hi Laurano! Sorry to see you here, i was rooting for ya! Xx

Thanks Cinnamon, lp & Hetty...I was so positive the last few days & hopeful that I would get a BFP, that it came as a slap across the face this morning . I have comforted myself with a hot chocolate & a wispa bar! I was proactive this morning! I rang the Gynae, and was told I am on the soon list! Ok, but how soon is soon may I ask, was my reply! I was told hopefully really soon! ! Ok,..fx fx. I ordered some Balance Activ gel. I can't believe I am onto 9! slaps myself ...Ok moan over! x

Did I see your stats said you're ttc#2 laurano81? Did you try for long with #1?

Cinnamon My DS is 11,...I didn't try at all...I was going into my final year of Uni, when I found out I was pregnant! The pill made me really sick at the time, needless to say, I came off it & hey presto! I went into college up to 2 days before I had him...I deferred my exams to the Autumn & graduated in December, when he was 10 months! His dad & I were together 3 1/2 years when I got pregnant, but split up over 7 1/2 years ago, when my DS was 4. My DH & I are together over 6 years, & got married in Oct '13. Complicated.com! x

Laura I'm on cycle 8 of number 2. I feel your pain

Sending you a hug laurano! Hope that wispa helped for a min!

Looks like af is packing her bags and buggering off! In the bath just now but tempted to crack open a bottle of fizz that's in the fridge! Xx
