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.

Jessica I'd say the earliest to test is 11 dpo ..Some do get a v faint line a bit earlier but I think that's down to a slight miscalculated ov. . Don't waste money or torture yourself. I'll be all over a frer 12dpo though.

Hi all, I have finally shifted my butt off the Feb bus and come to join in the fun of March.

My stats are Nomio230, 37, TTC#1, no idea how many cycles, but a lot, bfp due any time between 12-18 March. (Had a very strange cycle last month.)

KnitFastDieWarm · 24/02/2015 13:28

haha thanks pulpi!

victoria401 · 24/02/2015 13:45

Hi to the familiar faces of nomio and knit

Also had funny cycle last month nomio and did lose count of ttc cycles until I counted and we are on 29! Although we didn't "try" for at least 6 of those for one reason or another mainly crap sperm diagnosis depression. Not able to start fertility treatment until May cycle so plodding on "naturally" with our crap sperm and ever increasing ages (turn dreaded 35 in April)

DH has somehow pulled a muscle in his chest dtd?! so doesn't feel like dtd. That's just great as cd10 and already getting the odd side twinge. I was just saying to a good friend this morning, I flipping hate sex. TTC has done this to it :-(

Nomio230 · 24/02/2015 13:59

It really is crappy at times vic. I know what you mean about the dreaded 35. You hear such terrible statistics about women over 35 struggling to get pregnant & if they do, the children are at risk of all kinds of terrible genetic diseases.

Now I am a wise old 37, I take it all with a pinch of salt. Yes the risks are a bit higher, but if you are fit and healthy, there is no reason to think there will be anything wrong. Plus I am only about 18 mentally, so hoping that age trickles down to my ovaries!

I hope dh feels better soon.

chasingtherainbow · 24/02/2015 14:04

Hmm. Had the most amount of ewcm today cd16. This said I've drunk ALOT less and only peed 3 times since I woke this am.. as opposed to twice/three times an hour so not sure if I'm seeing more today because I'm not wiping as much. I think if I ov'd yday then it makes sense that it's here.

Only now I'm thinking should we dtd tonight? I actually think dh might leave me if I proposition him again this month! And my back is sooo sore today. (small easily woken child in room next door child... creeky bed..floor=ouch)

Do you think we've done enough? Bit annoyed we dtd so much too early.

Dtd cd7,10, 12,13,15.
Can't believe we've only done it 5 times and we're this exhausted! Though we are usually more like once a week people usually. Stamina is clearly rubbish lol

chasingtherainbow · 24/02/2015 14:06

nomio I agree. I am alot younger but worked with people in the field and I'd say in my experience it's only really mid 40s that really have trouble. Higher risks late 30s yes but definitely no where near worth hanging your ttc boots up for imo.

Nomio230 · 24/02/2015 14:13

chasing I think I love you for saying that. It is good to get confirmation from someone who actually knows what they are talking about. Smile

dojo123 · 24/02/2015 14:47

started this message this morning... It's been one of those days!!

Morning

sparkly sorry you haven't been feeling great again. Glad you're feeling better. March is going to be your month!

CD21 6DPO and nothing much to report other than waking really hot again and still experiencing the dull abdominal twinges/pulling.

Anyway, while I have five minutes I'll catch up on the rest of your mornings. ??

Jessica85 · 24/02/2015 15:53

Thanks Chasing. I have found a chart which tells me that there is very little chance of getting a positive before 12dpo, so that is giving me a bit of extra strength! Tww is hard, but getting loads of bfns is exhausting too.

I reckon you've done enough if you ov'd yesterday. You dtd at ov-5, ov-3, ov-2, ov. That's 4 times over the 5 day fertile window, so I reckon you're pretty much sorted. Defo bfp this month for you!

Lauramum23 · 24/02/2015 15:54

Avasmum8 I'm new too! We can stalk together! There will be a new thread soon as this one is just about full, I've just had a miscarriage and I want to be pregnant again I was 7 weeks and I was just getting used to it ! It was my 4th pregnancy I have a 11 year old 8 year old and 5 year old 2 boys 1 girl! I'm 31 didn't think I'd want anymore but I do there's so many women my age and older on their 1st and I thought im not finished yet! So I have to wait for a period which hopefully will be around 20th march ish then I can get cracking! It took one cycle with the last pregnancy ( and the other 3 actually well 1 of them took 2!) so I'm hoping if won't take long xxx

juneybean · 24/02/2015 15:55

I'm on possessed tablet so can't reply individually but hope everyone is okay!

I'm 8dpo today feeling complete nothingness and starting to feel like it's never going to work

chasingtherainbow · 24/02/2015 15:57

Jessica I hadn't thought about it in ov- before. It feels somehow better seeing it like that. It feels like 1 more time tonight would really cover any eventuality but I am only having minor twinges today in comparison to yday where I was feeling it ALL day. I barely slept last night and I think dh and I are fed up of each other. So I can only hope that it's a bfp this month. So much effort. I can't face more months of it lol

susurration · 24/02/2015 16:12

Newbie here, tentatively catching the bus and saying hello. This is our first month TTC#1. Though its a little bit half hearted as I am nervous about early pg over easter because of my working pattern.

brickiemum2 · 24/02/2015 16:16

Well it looks like my post mc hcg is not going to drop to zero in time for me to have a snowball's chance in hell of a March bpf. Best I can realistically hope for is a March af and possibly ov so a possible April bfp. I'm off upstairs to the gin deck for a wee refreshment lol.

Avasmum8 · 24/02/2015 16:51

Lauramum23 Hello :) I'm 25 so you must have had your first the same age as me! I got preg really quickly with my DD and the M/C was a 'one time' accident so I'm hoping that I will get pregnant again quickly but the m/c has really knocked me, I know it is 1 in 5 chance of happening and that is quite high but it is such a horrible thing to go through and it's made me put on weight so can't wait to just get pregnant again. :) xxx

Lauramum23 · 24/02/2015 18:46

Yes I was 20 when I had him, 23 when I had my daughter and 26 with my youngest. I know what you mean about mc it's scary we took it for granted having had 3 easy pregnancies I just hope the next will be ok. And my kids knew which was hard ( eldest was poking about on my phone and found an app) I will be keeping it secret next timeSmile

shinysparklythings · 24/02/2015 19:03

First time I've stopped all day to log in here! On phone so rubbish at replying but welcome to the newbies.

Chasing sounds like you gave it all you can so fx time now.

Jess- I know what you mean about wanting to test, and the horribleness of bfns!

My boobs are feeling a bit tender tonight and I have a spot on one of them which is proper random! I also have tmi alert an increase of creamy cm. at 10dpo so playing the bfp or af symptom game!!! Confused

DizzyNorthernBird · 24/02/2015 19:06

Afternoon all!

It's the all important 6dpo for me today! Isn't this when I'm supposed to get all the implantation symptoms? Anyway I've already decided I'm preggo kidding oneself

chasing well done on making DH relent to your advances Grin

juney I went to wilko and they were like £4.50 a box?? So I went across the street to supersavers......£3 quid, that'll do obviously I only need one box because I'm preggo and don't need them next month so don't need no two for price of one dealHmm Wink

DizzyNorthernBird · 24/02/2015 19:07

Oops strikethrough fail Blush

juneybean · 24/02/2015 19:14

Aww sorry dizzy stupid bloody website misled me! Glad you picked some up and I totally did that when they were 3 for I was totally getting pregnant so only needed one conception and two pregnancy...am now taking pregnancy ones cos I don't want to waste them !

chasingtherainbow · 24/02/2015 19:15

Dizzy will you not take v it's once you've got your bfp next week Wink

Mega early night for me tonight. I am running on nothing.
