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.

Welcome everything, good luck Grin

spinningirl10 · 19/02/2015 13:58

Thanks for the welcome ladies and hi sparklySmile

Kissing, I test with ov strips from cd8, I usually get a positive on cd11. I test twice a day at approx midday and 6pm. Sometimes more if I'm expecting ov. It's easy to miss it.

I am looking forward to writing Preggo next to everyone's names :)

gennibugs · 19/02/2015 14:55

waves at spinning sorry to see you here.

Just did a other opk. Still negative. I guess this truly is a wtf cycle!

everythingcrossed2015 · 19/02/2015 15:00

I had a positive on my OPK on the 18.02 and yesterday tested again but it was a lot fainter would i still have ovulated even though it only showed as positive for one day? :( x

Hairstylisttoboris · 19/02/2015 15:29

Just popping in, wondering if due to the cruel laws of the universe I should be on an April bus by myself already. No chance this month or possibly next :(

everythingmy cheap opps only stay positive for an hour or so then fade away (I test like 5 times a day..,) so yes only one day of positives sounds about right :) good luck x

everythingcrossed2015 · 19/02/2015 15:39

Thanks :) If you DTD more than once on ur ovul day will this mean im have fluffed it this month? Some one told me i shouldnt have and it wont work x

Amyyy27 · 19/02/2015 15:51

Everything I would have thought that doing it more than once would be a good thing but I'm sure someone will come along with facts :)

DizzyNorthernBird · 19/02/2015 15:57

Afternoon everyone!

everythingcrossed don't worry about having a faint line today, it probably means your egg is in the process of being released now or is sitting waiting. Dtd today and you should be fine! I'm not sure why you've been told dtd more than once is a bad thing... I would have said the more sperm there waiting for your egg the better! If your dp can manage twice in one day then go for it!

sweets I also had a row with dp last night. Not sure why but I think for some reason he panics about dtd on demand as we had the exact same issue last month. He decides he can't be bothered, I go in a huff then he starts telling me I'm putting too much pressure on myself..... Despite the fact last night I was quietly huffy whilst reading my book and it was dp that was making a big deal about the whole thing!!! Anyway he obviously felt guilty after 10 mins of trying to get to sleep as he then decided he wanted a quickie. Men!!!

Not tested yet today but have got a crampy tummy so I'm hoping I'm ov'ing today & will try and persuade dp for another quickie later - - wish me luck--

everythingcrossed2015 · 19/02/2015 16:03

That's what i thought :) hehe thanks everyone xx

chasingtherainbow · 19/02/2015 16:28

If my dp could manage twice in one day he'd be a very tired man cd14. Go for it!

Romeolovesjuliet · 19/02/2015 16:28

Hi ladies, still waiting for Everything to settle down from mc so nothing to report here. Hoping I am still going to make it on the March bus but it will be tight if I don't get AF by the first week of March! By the time I get to DTD you will all be getting your BFP's! Smile

adora1985 · 19/02/2015 16:50

Quietly, I don't temp at the moment, but I have bought a thermometer so that I can start next cycle. I think we timed it well, but I've just got this overwhelming feeling that this isn't our month an I've pretty much resigned myself to that, so can't say it'll come as a big shock to give a bfn next week.
We've been trying in fits and starts for four years now, this is cycle 14 (can have up to 70+ day cycles) in total, 5th this time after we had a break ttc for tests etc.
10dpo now, more being prodded this evening, hopefully they'll tell me the results this evening.

blondiewoowoo1 · 19/02/2015 16:55

Hi ladies

Just popping in to say hi and I see there are a few new and also familiar faces. Sorry to those who have joined from the Feb bus Sad
I've had my letter through for my initial appt and it was April! So I phoned them and asked for dates for a different hospital and they can get me in next week Grin so I'm pleased with that.
On the downside of things, I've had lots of ewcm and terrible ov pains today so feeling like it's a missed opportunity but can't be helped.
Hope everyone is ok and enjoy all your dtdathons Smile

dojo123 · 19/02/2015 17:17

Good afternoon ladies.

(Have also posted this on the Feb bus even though I know I'm well and truly on this one...)

Well me and the DH tried to DTD last night (we already DTD yesterday morning) but it didn't really work out as we were knackered, tried again this morning and success! Grin.
So this month we have DTD CD5, 7, 9, 11, 14, 15 & 16. I had a dip in temp yesterday morning and it was back up when I temp'd today so thinking I OV'd CD15.

That means I am now in the 2WW. Bring on the symptom spotting!!

Ooo it's looking good dojo!

juneybean · 19/02/2015 17:29

Here's mine... decided to "discard" my random high temperature as I really did sleep badly that day so will see if FF plots my ovulation as Monday otherwise I'm fooked.

Sweets27 · 19/02/2015 17:33

Aw Dizzy, sorry to hear you argued with your dp too - men are such pains!! FX for both of us for tonight Smile

And dojo, how exciting - FX for lovely BFP at the end of the 2ww!

BabyBumpHopeful · 19/02/2015 18:27

I have sleep apnea so my chart looks like the Himalayans... (attached) FF told me not to ever discard any temps, that it'll figure it out anyway, so this is my test month. I sleep like crap most of the time. Hoping for a rise tomorrow and a coverline to be generated.

Taking an OPK tonight when I get home from work so that's why there's no result for today. Also will be DTD today and again tomorrow. Anyway you guys can see from my chart all the rest.

For the people that asked about the multiple times per day, it doesn't hurt of course, but sperm concentration decreases (it takes time to "refill") which is way many sites etc tell you that DTD EOD is still good (good concentration).
