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

Morning Ladies,

Ceds Lightening crotch is literally that sharp pains in your crotch. I had it last cycle but no BFP sadly.
Theres no way to tell if your ovulating now dtd just incase.

IamEvan Sorry your feeling a bit down its only early days yet hun you just need try and relax (eaisier said than done I know). Not everyone gets cm but alot of girls take EPO to help with that.

Misty fx its a bfp

want and Spinning im 9dpo today and yes there was lots of dtd as always!! I wont test until im late 18 months of bfns I cant keep doing it.

Congrats Kilicat

Cariad I took 2000epo this month and had loads of EWCM

So as I said im 9dpo today my weird symptoms are as follows and probably not symptoms sneezing loads, constipation, very sore nipples and today my whole boobs hurt, not sleeping to well and mild cramps since ovulation

mistywillow17 · 29/10/2014 10:31

cariad I hope you feel better soon. Sounds like you've got something similar to what I have - it's rubbish.

Just been to the pharmacist to ask advice on what I can take safely just in case the BFP is real (she thought it looked like an early positive, but agreed that I should not get carried away just yet, as it was outside the time limit).
I've come away with a steam cup contraption to try to soothe the sore throat, and have stocked up on lemon and honey. I will be REALLY hacked off if it turns out to be a BFN after all - I want to dose myself up on nightnurse and lemsip, but just erring on the side of caution.

Bought a couple more tests as well while I was there-she advised to wait a couple of days before retesting (not sure I can manage that)

Aprilray · 29/10/2014 10:42

Congratulations Kilicat! Great news Smile

Wow, lots of fab symptoms ladies.
Blueberry, I really hope this is your month.
Ceds, a lot of ladies who have got their BFPs have reported a lot of cm, the spotting could well be implantation.
Misty, sounds promising. FX for a BFP within the next day or two. I hope you feel better soon, you too Cariad.

My 2ww insomnia has kicked in. Keep waking up early and not being able to get back to sleep. Have been having very mild cramps for the last day or two and have had thrush type symptoms since last night - broke my self-imposed google ban and apparently it can be an early pregnancy sign. Have also broken my no Mumsnet at work ban. I have no will power.

Hi guys,

Not sure whether to come here or start a December thread. My cycle is all over the place.

Anyway here are my stats.
Isabeau1980 34 TTC #1 Cycle 4 BFP 25th November to 1st December

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 29/10/2014 13:24

Come join us Isabeau! You can always straddle the December bus as well Smile

broodylicious · 29/10/2014 13:25

Congrats kili! Proof yet again that thread starters get bfps!

Welcome isa Smile You're welcome to ride this crazy bus with us.

I think it was this thread where we were talking about twins? I'd originally said "oh heck, no, defo not for me!!" but now, I actually cannot stop thinking/obsessing about having twins!! It'd be crazy and lord knows I really struggled with PND after having dd (brought on by sleep deprivation) but somehow, i quite like the idea now. Mental, crazy ttc lady.

Quietlyhopeful81 · 29/10/2014 13:35

Haha Broody me and dp were discussing twins (quite randomly) last night. At the start of the conversation we were both like 'that would be too much hard work' but by the end we had completely convinced ourselves that it would be amazing!

Welcome isabeau Smile

Aprilray · 29/10/2014 13:35

I would love twins Broody! I am hoping with me it will be a case of I wait a while for one (11 cycles!!) and two come along at once Smile

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 29/10/2014 13:38

Lol Broody my DH wants twins! He wants me "to pop as many out as you can as fast as you can" easy for him to say!

Aprilray · 29/10/2014 13:40

Incidentally I actually googled how to increase the chances of having twins when DH and I started TTC and apparently twins are common in areas where people eat a lot of sweet potatoes so I started eating sweet potatoes - DH thinks I am crazy, I think he is right.

tootssw17 · 29/10/2014 14:04

Ladies step away from the twins - I repeat step away from from twins!
Imagine the buggy cost- a new thing I discovered that cost more than my car!( it is a banger but still!)
Friends just had triplets... Shudder !

april put the sweet potato down.

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 29/10/2014 14:06

Lol toots I agree! The cost! Think of how many nappies you would have to buy... And clothes, and joint birthday presents and joint birthday parties.. Too much!!

gennibugs · 29/10/2014 14:07

ooh I'm desperate for twins. I would love them. i say to DH it would solve everything to have waited 12 months but then pop two out.

My mum is worse than me on the twins topic Grin

Weirdly enough I'm having sweet potato tonight Wink

gennibugs · 29/10/2014 14:08

toots i think triplets is a step too far even for me lol Smile

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 29/10/2014 14:14

Genni that is what my DH thinks - he wants lots of kids so thinks it would be less effort to pop several out at once and save time haha! Oh he is so idealistic sometimes Wink

MaGratgarlik1983 · 29/10/2014 14:52

Firmly on the side of loving to have twins here!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 29/10/2014 14:55

Did I hear you all cry twins! Damn I haven't had much sweet potato but I did take soy and I'm older than I was with the other children and this is my lord above 9th pregnancy! I think all those things go for me. Except I'm not tall though which goes against me. Saturday we will know. Wink

spinningirl10 · 29/10/2014 15:05

Loving the twins talk, I eat lots of sweet potato, am taking soy and I'm oldGrin

Can't wait to find out on Saturday if MrsE is growing twins in there??

Treaclepie19 · 29/10/2014 15:10

TWINS!!!
I want twins. My mom had twins (my half sisters) and miscarried twins (would've been full sisters). So definitely in the family :p

spinningirl10 · 29/10/2014 15:14

Here's a photo of what I've been up to with dsSmile

November bus opening doors- all aboard for BFPs!!!
MrsExtraOrdinary · 29/10/2014 15:23

Treacle get yourself some soy! Your going to triple your chances just like that!

Spinning you're not old my lovely, just older. Lol I'm only a fraction behind you Wink

God knows where the hell we'd put them. Who am I kidding they'd be in bed with me like one big nest and dh would be on the sofa! I expect it's only one. But can't help thinking as this is my last pregnancy it would be quite amusing to go out with a bang!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 29/10/2014 15:28

Treacle fab pumpkin! Littlest ds selected the most enormous pumpkin I'm yet to tackle it as I know the insides will make me want to be sick. I'm going to have to sweet talk dd aren't i! Wink

MrsExtraOrdinary · 29/10/2014 15:30

Sorry I meant spinning! Not treacle! Can we blame stupid pregnant brain, it's fairly useless currently!

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 29/10/2014 15:30

Mrs E at least you have your kiddies to help out if it is twins! Definitely be going out with a bang Wink

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 29/10/2014 15:41

The egg has arrived! Grin finally got my positive opk! (Weirdly after a v faint one this morning - one I've done def same strength as control and stronger than pat few days whoopee!) and EWCM to boot.
Ready to pounce on DH when he is back from work!

Pls update my stats for a bfp due few days earlier due to earlier ov - bfp now due hopefully 12 nov
