March bus for those of us who drive right on through feb without stopping!

Hope nobody minds, Thought I'd start a march bus especially for those people like me who skip feb out due to it being 28 days and having a 32 day cycle, or those already kicked off the feb bus. But all are welcome expecting bfps in March!

Found the jan bus was a great place to be to discuss the madness that is ttc!

So welcome aboard! Grin

Shinysparklythings 29, ttc#1, cycle 2, bfp due 1st march.

No no! Not pregnant! Not at all! Blush I was stupid and foolish and did a test and that is why I deserve nothing but corn flakes! As in I'm not fit to be gin terrace mistress if I go and do ridiculous things like this!

spinningirl10 · 14/02/2015 16:28

Lucie, I'm so excited for you that you're starting ivf! Purdey, who's currently on the few bus had her ivf in Czech and has a 10moth old dd now. I wish you lots of luck and hope it brings your long waited bfp. When are you going?

spinningirl10 · 14/02/2015 16:29

Haha aurora, sorry it wasn't a bfp. Fx for you soonSmile

auroraboringalis · 14/02/2015 17:02

spinning thanks! Apparently I inadvertently confused eeee-eeeveryone! Like I said, I'm an utter waffle. An australopithecal waffle.

lucieloos · 14/02/2015 17:05

Yes no problem at all Sammy, I've just been going through the process of gathering all the information so if I can help you at all then I will be happy to do so Smile

Thanks spinning it is exciting although a little scary and sad that we have had to go down this route, we just wanted to be like everyone else but I'm really crossing my fingers it works! I noticed Purdey had her ivf in Prague and she has given me a few tips.

I am hoping to start the meds mid March and then go out for egg collection the end of March but that's provided my cycles don't decide to mess things up and come early otherwise we will have to wait until April. Been trying to think of ways to delay them! I'm sure I used to ovulate late when taking EPO so might give that a try next month!

TrixieRay · 14/02/2015 18:16

Aurora weren't you only on cycle day 8 a few days ago...maybe everyone thinking you had your BFP is another sign.

Lucie, lovely to hear from you. Best of luck with your IVF. I spent a month in Prague in my early 20's and it is a lovely city, enjoy!

Blueskygirl30 · 14/02/2015 18:26

Hi, I'm just saving myself a seat. Some of you might remember me from a few buses ago. I got my bfp in November but it turned out to be ectopic so I've had to wait until March to start ttc again. Just waiting for AF and then I'm ready to give it another go!

I'm sorry to see familiar faces. Wishing you all lots of luck for this bus!

Genni I'm so sorry for your loss. This probably won't help but just to share my experience, I'm pretty sure I've been really fertile for the past two months (although I wasn't allowed to ttc) so hopefully you'll be super fertile and get your bfp quickly.

I can't remember what cycle I was on so I'll have a check and add my stats in a few days when I properly get back on the buses.

lucieloos · 14/02/2015 18:35

Thanks trixie, hope all is well with you. Good to see some familiar faces here. Wishing you lots of luck for getting your bfp soon.

auroraboringalis · 14/02/2015 18:40

Yes Trixie. Today was cd11. I think this morning was me doubting that my AF, which arrived only 4 days after my positive ov so made for that very very v short luteal phase I was blabbing on about, was really AF and not a really big implantation bleed. I know I know it was stupid. Blush
I'm still running negative opks now, but had a near positive three days ago, and so that was also confusing as it would have been only a day or so after AF stopped. Making for the shortest follicular phase ever to go with that shortest lp ever.
Just call me shorty. Grin

auroraboringalis · 14/02/2015 18:41

blue sorry to hear about the ectopic but glad you're okay. They are dangerous things sometimes. Best of luck for march! Smile

tessiegirl · 14/02/2015 20:29

Hi blue and welcome back - I was only thinking about you the other day funnily enough and wondering when you were coming back. Best of luck.

Well, DH and I made up after this morning and went out for a lovely dinner. I have joined weightwatchers earlier in a bid to lose my few pounds and give me something else to focus on rather than baby obsessing!!! Grin

Boosk · 14/02/2015 22:57

Welcome back blue so sorry it didn't work out. I hope the ectopic didn't do you any damage Thanks

CoffeeTwo · 14/02/2015 23:22

Hello all, mind if I hop on? AF arrived today so CD1 here.

CoffeeTwo, 31, ttc #2, cycle 7, AF due 21st March.

BabyBumpHopeful · 15/02/2015 03:45

Day 3 (Saturday) of flashing smiley (CD16) and expecting I should get a peak Sunday or Monday to fit with my "normal" 32 day cycle and a guess of a 14 day LP... I've read that you can get the flashing smiley for days and days and never a peak. My temps are pretty boring normally but I got a jump this morning (slept pretty dang good I thought!)... let's see if that means anything and I end up with a peak tomorrow :)

Hope everyone had a good V-Day :D

MrsGingerbread · 15/02/2015 06:43

Welcome back blue I'm so sorry to hear about your ectopic.

Coffee sorry to hear that the witch turned up for you as well. :(

Pikz · 15/02/2015 07:42

Signing in for cycle 14 or 15 I've lost count Hmm feeling really down about this one

Genni so sorry to see you here. Lucie wishing you all the luck.

Tricia and cariad am sorry you are here too but glad you all are as it is nice to see some familiar faces was feeling like I should have been on the infertility threads

Southy84 · 15/02/2015 08:55

Hope it's ok to join, I'm new to the site and thought after a long time of trying it would be good to have others to speak to. Had a MC in 2009 tried for 2 years then had a break, now been trying again since April 13 still no luck. Started using clearblue digital ovulation kit this morning- anyone rate these? AF due 04/03

nightandthelight · 15/02/2015 10:01

Updated stats :) welcome to the newbies and Flowers to those kicked off the Feb bus.

March bus for those of us who drive right on through feb without stopping!

Cariad2014 · 15/02/2015 13:52

Thanks for updating the stats Night.

Welcome back Blue. Lovely to see you. Here's hoping you get your BFP and a healthy, sticky bean soon.

Sorry to find you joining us Pikz and Coffee. Perhaps we're all just meant to be part of the 50 shades inspired baby boom in November?!?

Sorry for getting overly excited and thinking you'd got your BFP Aurora - I'm clearly getting ahead of myself and need to sit on my Pom Poms for the next two weeks. Blush

Waves at Lucie, Spinning, Trixie and Genni.

Cariad2014 · 15/02/2015 14:16

Welcome Southy. I know most GPs are quite dismissive of opks (and indeed the NHS guidelines are that you should dtd throughout the cycle). However, personally I find them to be really useful.

tessiegirl · 15/02/2015 14:31

Hi everyone, just noticed I haven't given you my stats night -

tessiegirl, age 31, ttc #1, cycle 4, bfp due 10th March

Thanks! Grin

gennibugs · 15/02/2015 14:41

Hello all! waves at all my bus buddies. I'm so sorry to see so many familiar faces (but it's lovely to be on a bus with such awesome ladies). Thank you for such a warm welcome back - in a way I felt a bit lonely when I got my bfp as didn't feel comfortable on the ante natal threads for some reason, nothing like these buses!

lucie I am so excited for your ivf news. Keeping everything crossed for you. Our clinic have told us to try for 2 more cycles just in case I'm one of the lucky "more fertile post mc" and to give my body a chance to recover then it's ivf for us too. Please do keep us updated on your journey.

blue I am certainly hoping I am more fertile. But I know it's just the luck of the draw with this whole darned thing. How are you getting on?

Our Internet is down so having to type this on my phone so will catch up with you all properly later when I have Internet at my mums house.

victoria401 · 15/02/2015 15:29

Cd1 for me too, waves at coffee

Sorry to see you back here bluesky and genni massive hugs.

Hi all

Hello all.

Sorry to see some more people from the feb bus and some new arrivals. Flowers

Having a few days with rellies so DTD is on hold until Tuesday afternoon. Yesterday I had a small glass of cider and small glass of wine. Today I haven't drunk anything yet (Hmm) but have had lunch which was baked Camembert. Hoping I haven't ov'd yet (temp still hasn't dropped so don't think so) so I'm ok to eat and drink all this stuff without any worries. still kind of am though Confused
