Ok will do thanks Angela, I will see what happens this cycle and report back. I don't normally get any ewcm so will be interested to see if it helps. I'm cd5 at the moment and we are beginning to dtd tomorrow. Trying sperm meets egg again!

Cariad2014 · 22/08/2014 20:08

Congrats Sarah and Janey - here's to a happy and healthy nine months

Good luck with your next POAS MaG - I'm keeping everything crossed for you.

Sorry to hear you're still in limbo Sunbathing and Katy - other than the month I got my BFP (swiftly followed by a BFN), when I was on holiday the entire time, I've found the 2 week wait to be sheer agony. It also seems to be go slower every time.

AF arrived this afternoon and us now in full flow, so I've been well and truly thrown off the bus. I was very upset about it on Monday (when the FRER was as white as snow at 10dpo), but am feeling surprisingly ok with it today. On the plus side: 1. at least AF had the grace to visit before the Bank holiday so that I can drink. 2. My ovulation date next month is also now likely to happen before DH goes away on a 10 day business trip - woop woop! 3. I have an Amazon delivery of 32 hpts to go and collect (mostly ICs)

Onwards to cycle 5. Have booked myself a reflexology session next week - thanks for the recommendation Spinning and have signed up to FertilityFriend, so will definitely by temping properly this month.

Good luck to all of those who are yet to POAS. Kitty - I'm rooting for you.

MaGratgarlik1983 · 22/08/2014 20:08

Just bought some clear blue but determined to save them...hmm...

bubalou · 22/08/2014 20:11

Comeawaywithme - I don't know what to do! Haha

Smile

With my DS I too had symptoms. I had heartburn from literally 1 week pregnant right up until he was about 4 weeks old when it eventually went away.

I know not all pregnancies are the same but I swear any symptoms I feel like my weird smell issues and dizziness are down to a cold or something.

Are you waiting? Apparently it's 67% accurate 6 days before missed af?

What to do!?!?!?

angelaham · 22/08/2014 20:12

Good luck Lucie, it may not have been the EPO, but just wanted to pre warn you x

dinodiva · 23/08/2014 06:33

Think I'm off the bus. CD25 yesterday and felt awfully sick and dizzy with a bit of bleeding in the afternoon, which had gone this morning. Poas this morning and BFN. Think af must be on her way. On the bright side at least I'll be able to booze my way through the bank holiday!

angelaham · 23/08/2014 06:52

Sunbathingcat- I took pregnacare conception tablets one month and I genuinely thought I was pregnant , I was a week and a half late, felt so sick and the headaches were awful , the tiredness , that I have never felt before , I stopped taking them in the end as I felt so rough, yet some if my friends have been on them and felt great and has led them to get pregnant, hoping they suit you and you can stay on them

EnglishGirlsReturned · 23/08/2014 06:55

Morning lovelies,
I'm jumping over to September as I seem to have ov'd late. 3dpo with BFP expected 2nd sept.
Good luck, I hope this lucky bus squeezes out some more bfps!

Nora42 · 23/08/2014 07:47

So after saying yesterday that I might wait until sunday to test, I caved and did it this morning!

Now slightly nervous to announce my BFP!!!! Smile

Can't quite believe it!!! Really didn't think it was going to happen this month!

MustBeDueSomeBetterFeet · 23/08/2014 07:54

congrats Nora!!

JaneyTea · 23/08/2014 08:15

congratulations Nora! Grin

I did a CB digi test this morning, just for something that felt more definite than a line. Was terrified that it was going to say 'not pregnant' and the whole of yesterday was some sort of cruel trick.

But thankfully, it said 'pregnant 1-2 weeks'. phew Smile

MrsBeeBeeBee · 23/08/2014 08:31

Congratulations Nora and Janey.
Love that we're still getting BFPs on this bus!

Good luck on sept bus English

Thanks for stats Lucie

10dpo today.

Cariad2014 · 23/08/2014 08:35

Huge congratulations Nora - here's to a happy and healthy nine months. What lovely news to start the bank holiday on.

lotsoftoast · 23/08/2014 08:39

Just popping in to see how the July bus passenger's are getting on - keeping my fingers crossed for a few bfps over the next week or so!

Katybear123 · 23/08/2014 08:57

Morning ladies, huge congrats to jane and Norma. Sat drinking tea on my hols it's lovely.

Cd 28 no news here, cramping which was hardcore cd 27 and 26 has gone. Maybe I am now just entering 2ww, who knows. Will stay put on this bus for now and see what happens.

Not going to test again for a good while it's to upsetting.

Sunbathing how you doing?

angelaham · 23/08/2014 09:02

Aww Katy, its so frustrating, hang in there. Those sex education teachers at school dont have a clue, they chime on about if you have sex you will get pregnant , what land are they living on as its not as easy as that, all those years of worrying about getting pregnant , we will get there, think stressing about it only makes it worse, enjoy your holiday and fx for you!!

Katybear123 · 23/08/2014 09:18

Thanks angel my sentiments exactly, on hols it's v easy to sit and relax about it. But in real world with my stressful job, and packed life it's not so easy it's just another thing for me to obsess about. Have you moved over to sept now? I will if I get to sept an nothing has happened, nothing to but keep on keeping in :-)

spinningirl10 · 23/08/2014 09:45

Congratulations Nora and Janey Grin

Cariad, hope the reflexology works for you.

Kitty, when are you home to poas?Grin

Natalie1989xo · 23/08/2014 09:52

So, ovia predicted AF for yesterday so potentially 1 day late. No tests in the house.. should I go buy one or wait until tomorrow?

EnglishGirlsReturned · 23/08/2014 10:07

Congratulations Nora and Janey. Hope you have happy and healthy pregnancies Smile

Cariad2014 · 23/08/2014 10:14

Natalie - if I was you, I would be getting myself to a pharmacy and picking up a hpt pronto.

Mind you, I have the patience of a toddler mid-tantrum on these things and have caved at 10dpo for the last two months running, so may not be the best at offering advice. All my close friends who are upduffed managed to wait until their AF was at least 5 days late before testing. I just couldn't do that.

Fx for you when you test - sounding promising.

Sunshinesaz86 · 23/08/2014 10:16

Congratulations janey and Nora! Fab news! I wish u both a happy healthy 12 months!!

That stat list looks fab, the BFP line is nearly as long as AF and August isn't over yet! Good luck to all still waiting, and those with BFN's if AF not arrived your still in with a shot!!

Nat if your a day late I would most definitley test!! FX for u x

Sunshinesaz86 · 23/08/2014 10:17

9 months........who's ever pregnant for 12!! Still half asleep!! Haaa

Mummabubbles · 23/08/2014 10:19

massive congrats sarah janey and nora fantastic news.

Sorry it's not looking so good katy but as the saying on here goes, you're not out til af actually arrives.

Af/bfp is due here tomorrow and I have no real symptoms or signs of anything! I don't think I'll poas tomorrow even if af hasn't arrived because it'll be too disappointing to see a bfn. It's much more fun to not know and let myself believe I might be pregnant Grin

fx for all who are still waiting to poas. I think this bus is still owed a few more bfps Smile
