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.

Thanks baby, I'll test again tomorrow. Can't do another today as I've just drank a out a pint and a half of water after having a salty lunch, lol. Admittedly my pos last month looked more pos than the one in the pic. Plan is to dtd today and again tomorrow so I'll hopefully be well covered x

ladydoc · 18/02/2015 17:53

Hi ladies, can I join the bus? I had a mc at the end of jan, and first AF arrived yesterday - back to TTC again when it finishes, hopefully start of next week!
Stats:
ladydoc, 34, TTC no 1, cycle 1 post mc

gennibugs · 18/02/2015 18:08

Ooh getting DtD ladies!

chasing I'd have the same reaction so you're not crazy. Well you probably are but then that would make most of us on here completely doollaly

Welcome ladydoc I recognise you from the ttc post MC thread. It sounds as if your cycle has got back to normal fairly quickly I could be wrong maths isn't my strong point

chasingtherainbow · 18/02/2015 18:57

waves at lady

Genni it's possible that crazy just comes with the ttc territory.

Hello March bus!

Kicked off the Feb bus today after a late ovulation and first (and probably only) month with soy. This month I am going to take nothing except my 7 seas trying for a baby and see what happens. Ttc for 6 months properly and saw my (very sympathetic) gp this month who said to go back in 2-3 months if no luck to get the ball rolling on fertility tests.

So, stats are:

Quietlyhopeful81, ttc #2, cycle 7, bfp due 20th March.

Good luck all!!

adora1985 · 18/02/2015 20:29

Utterly bored now. I think I might have said this before (not sure though and can't keep track of what I've said where!) but on my ov months, it's normally very late, never before cd21. This month I had a HSG on cd10 and had a +ve opk on cd14. We DTD on cd13, 15 and 18. I should be 9dpo now, but I've got a doubt in my head that I didn't ov, and that even if I did then we didn't dtd enough to have any chance of a good outcome this month.
I have an ultrasound tomorrow to confirm PCOS for our consultant, and then just need to wait for an app to come through to see her again, and I can then start with clomid after that. It all seems a million years away and like we're getting nowhere fast, but there's not much to be done about it.

FlourishingMrs · 18/02/2015 21:09

Can I come on please, 39,trying for #3 currently on CD8 expecting BFP on 6th March. Cycle 3 after several years on Mirena coil.

Quietlyhopeful81 · 18/02/2015 21:16

adora do you chart your temps? I'm no expert, but if you did ov on CD 15 as opk suggests, then dtd CD 13 and 15 is pretty well timed isn't it? i haven't caught up on previous posts yet. How long have you been ttc? I'm sorry you are feeling down. Flowers

Quietlyhopeful81 · 18/02/2015 21:17

Welcome flourishingMrs Smile

spinningirl10 · 18/02/2015 21:26

Hi ladiesGrin

Just saving my place......think af is on her way so I'll probably be joining you tomorrowSad on the positive, I get to spend another bus journey with you all and this is the bus where we will all get out sticky bfp's Smile

gennibugs · 18/02/2015 21:29

Hello newbies. Hope this is a successful bus for us all.

Hi spinning I really hope it's not AF on its way. Angry That sucks. Are you still temping?

Southy84 · 18/02/2015 21:35

Thank you all for your Comments, no Ewcm yet, I always thought I knew when I was OV but now I wonder if I've been miss-timing things. Just been panicking as I thought I'd be seeing at least a flashy smiley by now, but reassuring to know it may be a few days away yet. Chasingtherainbow I've been testing first thing in the morning and the second line on the stick is very very feint :( I suppose I shouldn't be worrying too much as DH is away with work at the mo so it may time right if I OV at the weekend! I thought these OPKs would put my mind at ease but think they are making me worry more... What a vicious circle! I honestly never thought getting pregnant would be such a missionConfused

chasingtherainbow · 18/02/2015 21:53

southy try 2nd urine or between 10-12 .. supposedly the ov hormone peaks mid morn not fmu. I do use fmu. But now I've had that bizarre false (I hope) smiley I feel all thrown out too.

juneybean · 18/02/2015 22:03

dizzy I would have called that positive if it was mine... (now worrying I misread mine!) but glad you're DTD tonight!

Jessica85 · 18/02/2015 22:03

Hi all! I'm driving myself crazy just 3 days into my tww and came on here for a dose of sanity - please help!

Yesterday I was telling my mum about some intense dreams I'd had and she said 'you're not pregnant are you?' Since then I've thought about nothing except thinking up ways my mum could know at 2dpo. Obvs not possible.

However, I'm not actually sure when I ovulated. I took soy for the first time this month, and had pos opks wed - sun last week. I normally only have one pos opk and get temp rise the next morning. Stupidly, I didn't temp this month. I know soy can cause more that one egg to release, so is it possible that I ov'd on wed, putting me at 7dpo, and the lh surge lasted because I was preparing to ov again?! Or do I just assume I ov'd on Sunday so I'm at 3dpo? How do I know when to test?

I've ordered some ic hpts so hopefully they will arrive soon and I can POAS daily, but I don't know whether to pick up some FRERs and test at the weekend.

GotTheKey · 18/02/2015 22:15

Catching up again on last few pages whilst on hols!

Was starting to regret not bringing my OPKs with me but got EWCM today so did a little dance in the toilet and then made sure we DTD with conceive plus and cushion under bum!! DH thinks I am crazy Wink

Purplecuddlykoala14 · 18/02/2015 22:21

I've found it a bit tricky to know if the cheapie opks are +ve or not too tight to buy the smiley ones so as long as it's got two lines I go with it. Temps seem to confirm Ov around the same time. So hopefully I'll get a Bfp eventully.
Got my appointment through for an ultrasound. Anyone had this done and know what it entails?

chasingtherainbow · 18/02/2015 22:37

.. currently bum propping.

Well done dh.

Bring on that bfp.

juneybean · 18/02/2015 22:40

Yay chasing

Jessica sounds like you're the same dpo as me and I will be officially testing on 1st March...

juneybean · 18/02/2015 22:41

Sorry that should say I'm 3dpo...

GotTheKey · 18/02/2015 22:42

Woo hop chasing!

How long should we prop for?!?!

Southy84 · 18/02/2015 22:49

Thanks chasingtherainbow, it's so hard to test any other time other than first thing or at night, think I'd feel paranoid taking my OPK to work... Maybe if I don't have a smiley by Friday I will try doing two tests a day over the weekend and see if it shows anything different. Knowing my luck I've missed that smiley. Hopefully not though, how long have you been using them for?

Jessica85 · 18/02/2015 23:09

Thanks juney! I'll try to hold out until then.

jugglingmonkey · 18/02/2015 23:49

Eeek here I am!
