November bus opening doors- all aboard for BFPs!!!

[IamEvan]

I know its waaay early for a November bus to set off but AF arrived today kicking me off the September bus and with DH away next month the October bus is not an option. Anyone fancy joining me in the long wait? I don't expect much action on this thread for a few weeks but it would be nice to have some company. My stats are below:

iamevan, 35, TTC#2, cycle 6, BFP due 7th November

Glad it's not just me with the odd cycles! On CD46 and starting to think I actually didn't ovulate at all in Sept so didn't have an AF but could be gearing up to ovulate now??! Don't know really. No AF or BFP and no whilst in limbo gah!! Hope you're all doing ok :)

Blue fx for tomorrow. Hope the clomid doing what it should.

Yes I've been tested for coeliac,it's negative :) My mum had multiple late miscarriages and stillbirths which doctors think was probably her undiagnosed & untreated coeliac so made I got tested before TTC. In fact I believe in Italy after 2 or 3 miscarriages they do an automatic test for coeliac.

Hi frolic, so sad to see you on here but selfishly glad too xx its going to be a long few weeks for some of us so glad we are doing it together xx

Proof I didn't know u could different width opk. Mine were just cheapies off amazon. Last months positives were really clear for me. I was so excited when it came up positive. I'm still waiting this month. Defo think my BFP will be november unless I use a frer in October due to not ov'ing yet.

Chuffed that we've managed to DTD eod three times in total which is a record for us. And I haven't had to use bj first heehee. Might as well go along with some of the research that says its bad. Just hope we can keep it up when I do get a positive opk!

What on earth is a dildo can? I have had to have an internal ultrasound but is this the same- rather incomfy and slightly awkward thing!

Opks- when do you start using them? Have now got some ic and cb plain old digi version but don't want to a) over obsess or b) waste time and money testing with no point.

Hope scan went well blue- answers means choices hopefully.

Seat being warmed by me- hoping cycle and ov play the game this month

Ttc 1, Cycle 1, bfp 14th nov
According to ovia!

Afternoon Ladies,

No answers for me after the dildo cam (I explain further down Toots), the doc could only see on ovary which and a few follicles but none big so therefore not about to ovulate, but he could see the other ovary and my fallopian tube so could tell if I had ovulated. I have to go for blood test to see next week so more waiting.

Toots dildo cam is literally a dildo shaped (kind of) camera that they do ultrasounds with not the nicest experience but it doesnt hurt.
Opks depend on your cycle length if you have a 28 day cycle generally most ladies ovulate around cd 14 so I start testing from cd10. Its often best to do them twice a day so you dont miss the peak.

Boo to more waiting blueberry :(

toots, my bfp is also due on nov 14 - there's a few of us actually - so we can all be cycle buddies/manic symptom spotters together!

toots and broody my bfp also due 14 nov! Cycle buddies :) we will have to poas together!

Toots I'm planning on doing opk from cd7 til I ov. Some do them twice a day I am planning on oce a day when I get on from work at about 5pm

Right poas buddies! Am on it... Not sure how I will sneak to ladies at work with a stick/cup but work it out- my ic are so small I need the vessel!

Can I join the mid Nov poas gang please!

I got a peak on my CBFM today so assuming an 11 day LP (last month was only 9 days but I'm willing it longer) I scrape onto this bus...

Joey0805, 32, TTC#1, cycle 2, BFP due 1st Nov

Hi Joey,

I'm with you - willing for a longer lp to just scape onto the November bus...

Fingers crossed!

Hi all, I'm hoping onto the Nov bus as my late ovulation has pushed me off the Oct bus! BFP due 4th nov. Positive opk yesterday where we dtd but haven't been able to dtd today/ night as DH is away. Plus I've had a stinking cold all weekend so I reckon my hopes are slim this month as there hasn't been much action.

Anyhow see what happens and I'm now in the dreaded 2ww

Good luck to you all

Evening ladies! Welcome to all the new passengers

toots, think I'll be joining the POAS group too! Going to start tomorrow morning (CD12 with 34 day-ish cycle), doing CB dual thingy in the mornings and IC when I get in from work. Caught out by early ov last 2 cycles, so determined not to miss it this month! "Serious" dtd to commence this Saturday unless I get a positive opk first

Hey can I join the mid Nov POAS party please!!! Due BFP 12th xxxx

Evening ladies! Thank you for the welcomes.
I'm on cd2, which is frankly boring!! I want to hurry up to the loads of sex and then loads of symptom spotting bit.

In the meantime, I'm thinking about what I can do this month to increase my chances. I know it's only cycle 3, but I'm mega impatient. My plan so far is to try the later, lower soy dose to strengthen my egg(s) and take epo (or crack!) and drink grapefruit juice up to ovulation to improve ewcm.
I'm also going to have a look at what can improve my uterine lining. Did I read to drink pomegranate juice for that somewhere?
What is everyone else doing? I already use opk's and temp, but said I'd add something new every cycle if no BFP.

I'm sorry the dildocam didn't give you any answers blueberry. Will you have another one?

Know what you mean frolic re waiting for the boring days to be over. I'm on cd6 so not quite ready for shaving my legs and lady bits and attempting to beautify every inch of me just yet - I'll wait for cd8 for all that effort!

Hello 14th Nov buddies! Me too! We've started the DTD EOD plan, hopefully we won't run out of steam like we did at a couple of points last month. I'm just using OPKs for the first time this month frolic so I don't have any other good suggestions for you!

Cor broody you do make an effort! Lol my DH has to lump it if I'm hairy though I wax so can't really change the routine to suit!

Ha ha broody! I don't ovulate until around cycle day 19, so plenty of time for my legs to get hairy!!
I have used opk' sand got on fine with the internet cheapies. Just got a pack of 30 for a few quid and used then a few times every day. The line needs to be darker than the control line and I found this easy enough to spot. I also temp to confirm ovulation and find it quite satisfying to see the rise. I suspect I may have had a few surges last month, do having the opk and temps should help me pin point better as the cycles go on - not for too long hopefully

You are brave with the waxing want! Although I hardly have any hair, so can't justify the pain!

I'm really busy with work and family stuff this week - a nice distraction from ttc.

Hi all, wish this week would get a move on so we can get down to business!! Frolic, im also going to try grapefruit juice although may have left it a bit late for this month, have just been reading some good stuff about it so worth a try

frolic it really isn't that bad! It stings a bit for all of about 5 seconds then it is so smooth and it grows back so fine and you don't have to worry for 8 weeks :) I been waxing for so long now my leg hairs don't all grow back anymore. Waxing is brilliant I would def recommend I am a wimp with pain but it isn't really painful just stings a little and it lasts such a short time

Cd8 here. Just waiting, better start DTD

Morning ladies... Can I please join you all in hoping for a BFP in November. I've sadly just had to disembark the October bus since my period arrived this morning. Disappointed!!! I'm determined!!!!
Stats are 30/ TTC number 1/ cycle 4 xxx good luck ladies xx
