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.

Oh sorry forgot - BFP due absolutely no idea when!

nightandthelight · 21/02/2015 12:58

Hi AbFab you are absolutely not too late, welcome Flowers

I am currently away but will be updating the seating plan on Monday :)

Really hope AF arrives for you soon!

MrsG - I thought sweet potatoes had been linked to twins rather than ov inducing?! Loving the theory though.

My cycle also seems to have gone a bit weird. Had my first "high" on my CBFM on CD6, forgot (I know, I know) to test with FMU yesterday but I was still high today (CD9). Had loads of EWCM yesterday evening (sorry if TMI) so I assume I'm not a million miles away from ov, although when I look at the ov sticks myself, the second line is still barely there. In short, I'm still utterly confused. Started our dtd-athon yesterday so I guess we should just keep going until I get a peak or the EWCM disappears...

Genni - I hope you enjoyed your meal out last night (despite having to miss Eastenders for it). All the best for your return to work on Monday. I will be thinking of you. Flowers I'm a big fan of working from home. I tend to find I get more done whilst feeling a lot less stressed, the lack of commute (mine's about 45 mins each way) is also a huge bonus.

Spinning - Sorry AF arrived earlier this week. Flowers Although you are definitely now in my favourite bit of the cycle. Envy Sounds as though parting ways with your student was a good move. The bedroom incident sounds scary. Where are you moving to at Easter?

Waves back at my fellow South Londoner Trixie. I'm using the advanced CBFM, which up until now I've found to be quite reliable.

Currently sitting in a cafe surrounded by babies. The joys of living in a nappy valley!

Cariad2014 · 21/02/2015 13:01

P.s. Glad to head your AF had arrived Night so that you can properly get started.

Loving your DH's seduction technique MaMaPo. Wink

nightandthelight · 21/02/2015 13:08

Thanks Cariad, nothing will stand in my way this time! Can't believe I am on my third bus without having actually been able to start yet Hmm

AbFab86 · 21/02/2015 13:14

Thank you light! I will sit at the back with a pick n mix if I need to Smile

nightandthelight · 21/02/2015 13:16

Sounds like a plan to me AbFab!

Southy84 · 21/02/2015 13:32

Having read some of the posts I realised I haven't put my stats, here they are

Southy84 - 30- ttc #1 cycle 23...

MrsGingerbread · 21/02/2015 14:15

Cariad in general I think they up progesterone, so really for the second half of the cycle. I just fancied them and cooked them. Now I am wondering if the 'progesteroney'type stuff confused my opk :S

mamapo love your dh's comment about the bun! How cute! :)

dojo123 · 21/02/2015 14:52

Mamapo brilliant seduction technique by or OH!

Amyyy27 · 21/02/2015 15:57

Bum propping as i speak! Think we have done all we can this month... will dtd again tomorrow if poss just in case but i think thats it now... in for the 2ww and fx for a bfp! Anyone else??

juneybean · 21/02/2015 16:13

Good luck Amy

shinysparklythings · 21/02/2015 16:14

Wow that's a lot of posts ladies.

Hi abfab yes the acronyms are certainly with putting on a cv I think!

mamapo that is so cute, it's great when the dh' are on board and excited. Mine came through the other day with two tubes of multivits to check which ones he needs to be using whilst ttc one has zinc in

amy I hope you tried the kebab?!?

I have a pain in my back between my ribs and pelvis :( it's quite a sharp stubby pain, which is concerning, feel fine other than that. I'm seeing quite a bit. No idea what the pain is, thought maybe a uti never had one before but no pain on peeing and peeing a proper amount. Any ideas?

Thanks juney Smile

chasingtherainbow · 21/02/2015 16:18

The kebab? I missed that!

Amy I'm 3 days behind you. Will be counting dpo from Monday I think.

Despite the stupid opks I'm definitely feeling something on my left hand side (which is good as eptopic was right) and I've just seen some ewcm. I'm wondering if the problem is I just pee/drink SO much that I'm never building up enough cm between wipes to see it iykwim.

I've decided to just stop panicking, dtd tonight and tomorrow and Monday night if my dh can keep up after a long day at work, and hope for the best. Had a lovely afternoon out at the farm and our face coffee shop with our dd and feeling less crazy.

Amyyy27 · 21/02/2015 16:18

shiny i havent heard of that sorry? Unless you mean the actual food which grosses me out! Haha. No idea about the pain though sorry hope it eases x

Amyyy27 · 21/02/2015 16:21

Cross post sorry chasing if it helps i havent had a single bit of ewcm this cycle that im aware of (not normal at all for me) just watery since monday. Hopefully that wont hinder our chances. Good luck!

shinysparklythings · 21/02/2015 16:21

the kebab copied from page 15 of this thread.

Some people try a slow rotation on to each side and their tummy to coat the cervix. I might try this this month. I will call it The Kebab. :D

Amyyy27 · 21/02/2015 16:25

Ah i see! Hahaha I did something of the sort while shoving a 3rd pillow under for good luck! Grin

chasingtherainbow · 21/02/2015 16:25

Um. Do you kebab after sex or during? Blush

chasingtherainbow · 21/02/2015 16:25

There's a sentence I never thought I'd write. ..

shinysparklythings · 21/02/2015 16:27

I assume after chasing I've not tried it yet as was posted after we had dtd.

Amyyy27 · 21/02/2015 16:30

Haha love it!!

MrsGingerbread · 21/02/2015 16:50

Love that everyone is using my made up name.

I tried the Kebab last night! :)

Purplecuddlykoala14 · 21/02/2015 16:53

night sounds like a good plan.
I suppose you could try it during DTD but I 'd proably give myself a hernia.
