Well I'm just waiting for AF to show up and the timings mean I miss January all together. Anyone out there who would like to join me in trying for a BFP in February? :)

CoffeeTwo, 31, ttc #2, cycle 6, BFP due 10th February.

purdy vicks inhaler.... I just snorted.

ibeka it's brand new so better bloody work! It could be down to the lurgy but I woke up nice and toasty. Just tried it now and got 35.9 and DH got 36.1 so pretty sure it's working. It seems I'm just weird but why break the habit of a lifetime?

Sparkly123 · 25/01/2015 16:58

Dizzy get that chicken in the oven! Thanks for asking- my bleeding has finally stopped just some brown cm but since the bleeding stopped my back pain/cramping/ovary pain is a lot worse again! Rubbish!!!

Purdey right. So basically that's us all off the bus then thanks to your checklist...!! Ha ha. It's all worth it right? .... right? ...... RIGHT?!?!? Shock

I always get two smiley face days in a row does everyone else only get one???? I just wondered as noticed all the conversation about having one true LH surge??

Considering doing an AI tonight Confused... One week post mc... Only because my OPK line is getting quite dark which usually happens just before peak, plus I have quite wet cm today. Eeek.. !!! Confused

Sparkly123 · 25/01/2015 16:59

...someone tell me if that's insane to do it so soon and when I'm in so much pain still?! Blush

crazypuglady · 25/01/2015 17:04

It's insane sparkly... can't honestly say I wouldn't though.

Sparkly123 · 25/01/2015 17:11

BlushBlush it's pretty desperate isn't it crazypug can I blame my hormones..????

Rainy34 · 25/01/2015 17:41

Sparkly it sounds like we might be cycle buddies again, so proud of you my love!! , now go and make a sticky bean!!!!!

Rainy34 · 25/01/2015 17:46

Second thoughts if you're still in pain , I'm not so sure,

PurdeyBirdie · 25/01/2015 17:49

Ibeka, aha! The Pill would explain a lot, however, I am more ear-pricked to read you believe you had five-week cycles That would place ovulation at around CD21 or later, no? With a two-week luteal phase? Time will tell and I would love to keep stalking chatting about your chart.

Mmmm...pavlova.

PurdeyBirdie · 25/01/2015 17:52

Babies are gorgeous, but baby groups are hellfire. Also, when you bring your baby home you feel like an alien has invaded your house and all your pets go nuts and then you have a kind of breakdown and then you're okay. Kinda.

ibeka · 25/01/2015 17:55

Fairly certain they were 5 weeks as I remember feeling lucky I had 4 weeks between periods compared to friends' 3... This was 15 years ago though! Now I think a 5 week cycle will just make TTC more frustrating. No idea how long my luteal phase ever was. I've run out of OPKs but may order some more now...!

Sparkly123 · 25/01/2015 18:28

Purdey I feel like an Alien myself most of the time so I'm down with that. Bring it!!! And I have no pets. Bonus. Id ask your opinion on to AI or not to AI but I'm pretty sure I know what you are gonna say. Wink

ibeka get the OPKs! They will def help with the tracking

Rainy aww thanks . I think I could still be in pain for a while and to be honest I feel I need to do something to move forward.. !!! I asked the clinic and they said it should do no harm or damage so... Confused Blush how are you doing this far?!

keys27 · 25/01/2015 18:33

nightandthelight · 25/01/2015 18:35

Aww so sorry keys, you are one month closer to your BFP now though :)

Sparkly123 · 25/01/2015 18:38

Sorry keys that's not great. But... Not over till it's over.. Some people (including me) said they felt exactly same as normal pre AF and got a BFP so don't give up hope! And if not then won't be long before time to try again.. And get your BFP! Good luck, fingers crossed for you Flowers

babsbunny · 25/01/2015 18:40

Hello ladies. Do you mind if I take a seat? Just migrating from Jan bus as af appeared today. So fresh start.

CoffeeTwo · 25/01/2015 18:49

Hello all. Nice to see such a busy bus this month. CD 15 here and probably still a week away from ovulating. Long cycles are dull. Going to have a read back and catch up now :)

Sparkly123 · 25/01/2015 18:50

Oh did I miss a BFP too keys who who who???

Welcome to feb babs it's the BFP bus for sure! Sorry about AF xx

PurdeyBirdie · 25/01/2015 18:54

Sparkly, what's up, cock? Is it the pain you are still in that's making you reticent about TTC? Is it fear of infection from the AI process? I'm all ears, sweet'art Thanks

australopithecus · 25/01/2015 18:56

Wow. The January mistresses are fast arriving. Maybe we need an bendy-bus? Or at the very least a double decker! Speaking of double-decking , with DTD again tonight? Still having some ewcm once or twice a day and it is day four of faint opk lines but no strong surge line? Should I bother? Or are the faint lines all a ruse? DTD three times in last five days. So worried about missing this first ovulation! Confused

Rainy34 · 25/01/2015 19:02

Sparkly if the clinic said it wont do any harm and you feel upto it then go for it!!, I'm feeling a bit better now thanks , made some homemade chicken and leek soup, which didn't last as good as my mums but certainly was good!!

ozmund · 25/01/2015 19:03

Hello, can I join the bus?
I am ancient (just turned 40) and my other half is ancient but we have made a crazy decision to try and have a child together.
We started trying last month but had visitors staying over at the crucial time. This is the first month we've been trying properly. I'm slowly getting to grips with the science (temping, observing the signs etc.). Paranoid I have no eggs left or low progesterone or his sperm is crap. Wish they gave you an MOT at 30 so you knew when you had to get a wriggle on.
FF/Ovia tell me I ov'd on the 20th so I have about 8 days left to wait.

I still don't really feel grown-up enough to be doing this properly... :-S

keys27 · 25/01/2015 19:13

ss sparkely ive read everything wrong hun ss thought u were after last comment. big hugs babes xxx

PurdeyBirdie · 25/01/2015 19:14

Wash your mouth out, Ozmund, you harlot! Forty is categorically not old! I am 43 and one of the January ladies of the same age just got her bfp...after only three cycles of trying! Yes, yes..we hate her and lob darts at her head, but the point is...she did it! There are actually three of us who are 43, a couple of 37s and 39s, a 38 and then an indeterminate who merrily insists she's twenty-one Grin
