West. Your temps sound very promising, fxGrin
I'd love to live in London, I like the big cities.

Thank you ladies, the support and kindness on this bus is overwhelming. Off for some overtime at work, feeling a bit emotional so hope I don't have any grumpy customers!
And yes I guess while af isn't here there is still hope for this cycleGrin

Just heard about that poor lady in Bristol who walked out of the hospital with Her new born baby. Looks like they've found her body, such sad newsSad hope they find the baby.

tessiegirl · 04/12/2014 10:34

Morning all,
Still have my fx crossed for you spinning
7DPO here - no symptoms apart from creamy cm. I had my first ever dream I got a bfp last night...awwwww!!

hc899 · 04/12/2014 10:43

I'm sorry to be a bit graphic here guys (I'm hoping you'll understand!) but I seem to have very wet watery CM but with bits of white in it - is that normal?!! What does that get classed as?!!! lol. 7dpo here.

MaGratgarlik1983 · 04/12/2014 10:59

Aw sorry for AF Freckles and spinning there's still time!!

10dpo for me (I think) and a massive spot on my lip - odd! Really hot (am flushed, usually have to wear blusher to look like this!) and bbs sore. But remaining calm and sceptical until I test next week - don't want to get my hopes up again!

I'm out :-( AF arrived just as I was going to bed the bitch!

xx

Dozygirl · 04/12/2014 11:23

Sorry that AF showed freckles. AF always seems to have a way of appearing for us ladies right after you'be decided to say it's not. I've poas in the past then AF arrived straight after.

So my body is per usual playing tricks on me and keeping me hopeful even though it's so not likely to be BFP. It's not following the usual pattern though. Fresh blood last fees days but only on wiping, no flow. Seemed slightly heavier yesterday so out tampon in last night but came out dry. Now nothing but creamy cm even when I reach up to my cervix to find any hint of spotting. I always find spotting once it's started in the past. Temp is also back up this morning. I know I'm clutching at straws after blueskys bleeding with a BFP last month but a girls gotta Dream!

I also know that now that I've written this the complete opposite is gonna happen and I'll start bleeding heavily!

Just have to sit it out as per usual.

spinning I still have my fx for u and I'm sorry you've been struggling this morning. I can totally understand. Sending u a massive virtual hug.

Rainy34 · 04/12/2014 11:29

Had my doctor appointment about spotting before period comes ,she thinks it's just hormonal and won't cause me not to get pregnant , she is sending me for a pelvic scan to make sure everything is ok, if we don't get pregnant and the scan is fine v to come back after a year and get referred to fertility clinic, she was really lovely and said to stop stressing and hopefully it will happen soon, so just have to what happens

gennibugs · 04/12/2014 11:33

Morning all.

Just popping on quickly to say sorry it was a bfn spinning. Hmm That just sucks.

I am so horribly busy at work, I'm sure this stress can't be good for ttc surely! Need to try and find a way of managing it rather than sitting here panicking with a knot in my chest!

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 04/12/2014 12:04

Sorry af arrived freckles.

Spinning it's not over yet. Fx for you. Smile

tessiegirl · 04/12/2014 12:36

Sorry AF has arrived freckles and MrsCrumbtious

Fx for you MaGrat!!!

Dozygirl sounds very promising still!!!

I'm so glad your docs appointment went well Rainy At least she is sending you for a pelvic scan to help give you reassurance everything is ok

hc899 I too have had watery/creamy cm but when I reached up inside it was definitely just creamy...maybe do the same and you may get a better idea?!!!

hc899 · 04/12/2014 12:47

Wow tessiegirl, the things we do for a BFP eh?! lol. I will give it a go!

JessieMcJessie · 04/12/2014 13:19

Wah, really not sure what's going on with me this month.After last month getting a lovely static smiley face on the clearblue dual hormone on day 15 I am now on day 18 of my cycle and absolutely no sign of ovulation on any of the OPKs I've been taking since day 11. ICs so today I went back to CB DH and not even a flashing! Def got some EWCM a couple of days ago so am wondering if I just missed the LH surge, but no temperature rise whatsoever. My first cycle off the pill I don't think I ovulated but thought it was just because it was the first cycle. Is it true that the ovaries alternate ovulation? maybe I've got one duff ovary...
Anyway we have been DTD for the last 4 days and will keep it up for a couple more, but I am not hopeful there's going to be an egg to meet the sperm...:-(

Nordicmom · 04/12/2014 13:44

Sorry about af mrscrumb and freckles!
I'm in purgatory here at 10 dpo. I've been going to loo so often even at night that all my samples are always very diluted . Now that we went out to dd Christmas play and then to lunch I didn't go so when I got home and it was nice and concentrated I decided to do another opk out of interest on a cb that had a blank circle after the earlier other test was flashing smily the other day and it started to flash too . Now I've used them for years and they've always for me been blank with a nonexistent faint line that then gets stronger starts flashing and then gets solid when I ovulate . As I've said that happened around cd 13/14 and had other signs too Ewcm and pain etc so we tried and now on 10 dpo it's getting stronger again which is interesting since I have read about people using them as preg tests . However the frer I just did with the same sample is blank . My breasts are ridiculously sore , weeing all the time, cramping and having lower back pain some nausea so all this is properly messing up my mind and cruely giving me hope once again and I just know it'll all end in misery this weekend :( . Sorry to moan .

Dozygirl · 04/12/2014 13:47

rainy glad u had a good appointment. It really helps when they're understanding and reassure u it shouldn't be a problem. I felt better after the second I saw was really nice. I've got a gynae appointment 19th dec so they can rule out things to. It just puts your mind at rest and therefore helps the stressful side of ttc.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 04/12/2014 14:01

Oh Nordic that does seem quite cruel. What dose of soy did you take on what days?

TrixieRay · 04/12/2014 14:15

Boo to AF rearing her head on this bus! FX in January ladies.

Genni, sorry to hear you're busy and stressed at work. I know that feeling all too well. Have holiday to use up (using some now in fact!) And couldn't sleep last night as I was worrying about work. Had to take a few Kalms night in the end which I don't like to do. Someone said a few buses back (and I've also read it during my extensive ttc reading) that general stress is fine for ttc. I listen to Zita West's fertility relaxation CD when I can which helps.

Any news Laura?

I'm only 7DPO and feeling really tearful and emotional. Really hoping it's a sign but could well just be dread of hitting 12 months ttc.

Nordicmom · 04/12/2014 14:29

I did days 3-7 100,100,150,200,200 I think for the first time. I'm thinking maybe it did make me ovulate several eggs and is just giving stronger pre af symptoms or this is another cp

Nordicmom · 04/12/2014 14:30

Anyway pretty bloody desperate here after all these years of trying to carry another baby myself . Can't believe it's soon been 10 y since ds was born ...

laurasdream · 04/12/2014 14:31

Claire Massive congrads! I am delighted for you x Wishing you a H&H 9 months!

Spinning Sorry you got a BFN... hang in there... FRER are not as great as they are made out to be...there are lots of bad reviews about them...saying that HCG metabolises differently in everyones body, so you may have just tested too early!

Frekles I am sorry AF got you! Dust yourself off & try again xx

Nordic I don't know why TTC has to be so hard for some people....hang in there...you have no choice...try to stay positive & believe that it will happen x

I am 16 dpo/CD33 & no AF...went to the doc, and she took a blood test, as she felt that the test I did Saturday was indeed a BFP...I brought the test with me!! Blush I got a BFN again this morning, so at least the blood test will let me know for definite... she sad sometimes test just don't work, but I doubt it will be good news x

Nordicmom · 04/12/2014 14:32

Pretty much in constant pain too from my right ovary and lower back and since yesterday / day before cramping all the time too so can't not think about it the whole time .

Rainy34 · 04/12/2014 14:34

Thanks tessie,
Dozy I manged to get a scan for 13 December ,really pleased it's so soon thought I'd have to wait ages- x

Nordicmom · 04/12/2014 14:36

Laura thanks for kind words and so sorry you are having a hard time too I hope you'll soon find out what's going on ...
I don't think dh will ever understand how much I want this . He keeps on saying but we have a baby (dd 2,5 ) which is true but to me she isn't a baby anymore but a toddler and I'm so set on having one more and would so love to be able to do the pregnancy myself like with ds .

TrixieRay · 04/12/2014 14:37

FX its the former Nordic. I'm trying soy next month if this month isn't successful.

Meant to say, I'll be getting the party started early on Sat. Winter wonderland in Hyde Park then dinner and drinks with the girls, can't wait!

laurasdream · 04/12/2014 14:56

Sorry AF got you MrsCrumb

Trixie I hope this is your month! Kmfx Xmas Smile

Nordic Did you ever think of going to a healer? I went to a fab one from Scotland. I hope you feel better soon, try doing something you enjiy to take your mind off it all x
