All aboard the Feb bus, as we finally take off

[Blue500]

New bus ladies, bring on those Bfp's!

Today I've NOT felt sick is what I meant xx

Sorry sammy..shit isn't it..

I have an account but don't use it for similar baby related issues - all my former preg group ladies are on their with their bouncing 7 month old babies..which fills me with happiness for them & sadness for me - then guilt for feeling shitty towards babies!

Justin Timberlake made it onto my twitter feed thanks to the fuckwits at ITV in all of his belly kissing glory..
It angers me that I still feel happy for them haha! Too bloody nice for my own good..

Self preservation - important!

Missmrs - yes, I would miss the stalking opportunities!
And do you also find that because of these pregnant friends all the page adverts on your newsfeed are about apps to count down pregnancy or pages giving away baby stuff in competitions?!

Missmrs I have the same "suspected endo" diagnosis from Gynae... They dip offer a lap to confirm but I just wasn't well enough at all to go though any procedures at the time.

wishing sorry you got a bfn.. I had slight morning sickness with dd, but mine was more of a constant shit feeling.. But everybody experiences it differently.. Fx for you xx

Aaaa-aargh you all move too fast! sits on the roof looking out for the sunrise

feck but it's cold up here!

Cd12 and still no peak on cbfm... . Austral, I'm coming up on the roof with you to wait for these bf'ing babies to allow our cycles to resume... I'll bring some blankets.

Yes please thank you giddy! And some of those Alice band type earmuffs that all the cool 19 year olds are wearing these days.
DC didn't want much of a feed this morning. Suspect an out of sorts baby what with teething and all, but of course am secretly hoping that I have magically called pregnant and now my milk tastes funny. Thinking this is probably akin to poas 1dpo so I should obviously stop this line of thought immediately.
offers round hot tea from the thermos flask

*fallen, not called.

You're right, we could totally carry off those ear muffs, I'll get us some. Thanks for offer of tea, but..... . Fingers crossed for you austral! If no peak this month I will have to start trying to nightwean dc. Can't imagine that will go down well .... How did you manage it?

Oooo-ooh buttered toast!
I know redbush/rooibosch/rooibos tea from South Africa is supposed to be completely caffeine free. I also like the taste of it. Like a dusty Darjeeling with an edge. Maybe you can try it?
The night weaning was easier than I thought. I started by introducing a bottle at bedtime but also made the boob available for the first few nights if it didn't go well. Then eventually just the bottle. Made dh do the bottle so it is obvious boob isn't around and I think that helped A LOT! DC accepted it very quickly and fell asleep with the bottle as part of the routine rather than breast. Fed DC when waking up during the night from the breast for a few nights still and then substituted breast for bottle. Used the ready made cartons so just kept one next to the bed, snip open and pour, and DC has a bottle in the mouth before you can say gironimo! That was easier than the bedtime weaning tbh. Still do an early morning boob feed when DC wakes around 4-5am, in bed with us.
Sorry for hijacking the thread everyone, with useless breastfeeding info!

Morning

Well I tested this morning and this was the result... Two BFNs. I'm confused Still no sign of AF. Still no, symptoms, still have a raised temp.
I finished the course of penicillin yesterday and so if that has had an effect I should hopefully know by Wednesday. Going to book an appt with the docs for Wednesday anyway as I've never been a week late.
Still in blummin limbo land.

dojo I am so sorry that you are in limbo. A trip to the docs sounds like a very good idea :)

Rubbish dojo.
I don't like those cb ones that say "not pregnant". Have never used them but when I see them like on your photo it is as if it is a total kick on the nuts reading it properly. More definitive in ruining your day somehow than just a line.
(And I would presume getting the word "pregnant" when you didn't want it would be similarly awful.)

Oh and yes definitely go see the gp if you've always been regular! And have some cake for breakfast.

Thanks austral, apoloies everyone else, please accept some toast. Still warm and butter has melted nicely.
Dojo, how confusing. :(

dojo really sorry for this. Can't imagine how you must be feeling.

Would appreciate advice on temp situation - so awoke last night at 2.45am after just shy of 3 hours sleep. Took temp and was nice and high and in sync with prev 2 days. Couldn't get back to sleep until 4am up at 6.30am and a massive decrease to below cover line. Pissed off with that. Obviously I want to use the first temp but probably shouldn't. Room was freezing this morning. Wonder if that made a difference. Also was away at the weekend in a very warm room so now I'm thinking my shift was not real. Back to the drawing board

How utterly deflating Dojo. Could it be that the tests you used this morning aren't as sensitive as what you used yesterday? This might be worth a Google. It might also be worth checking whether the antibiotics you were taking can give false positives.

If you think the issue is to do with the sensitivity of the tests, I would try a FRER tomorrow morning, as this should be sensitive enough to pick up any hcg. A GP's appointment on Wednesday sounds like a good idea.

Hang on in there. I've been in limbo land myself so know how horrid it can be.

Sorry to hear that dojo. I think a trip to the docs is a good idea. Fx for you.
Cd28 here, tested this morning with an IC test and bfn. No AF yet either.

Well this morning Fertility Friend tells me that 'your cycle length variations prevent accurate predictions'. Jolly good :(

Noooo-ooo heir! that's crappity-crap. Can you sue ff?!
Looks like it is an irritating Monday on the prediction front for everyone including twinkle. so am sending good vibes from the rooftop to you all!

blueberry good luck for your scan and dojo sorry you are in limbo, maybe it's too early for the tests you have done this morning?
Hope everyone else is ok.
Sorry can't help with the temps/charting as I don't do it at the moment.
Very odd here and to be honest think I'm out as past few days af like cramps and weird pains on and off with some slight spotting but today a browny red when I wipe - not due af until next week but maybe my body is just being weird! I got a smiley face 9 days ago but no ewcm so not entirely sure I ov'd anyway.
Its been 4yrs since I last TTC so I've forgotten what's normal and what isn't!

Oh no dojo

Heir ovia once gave up on me and just skipped a whole month

Cb peak this morning. Opk peaked last night. Impressed with Agnus castus as a cd21 ov is now cd17 so cycles now 29-30 days instead of 34-35 days

twinkle both temps are invalid. Just discard them. Any temp taken before 4am is invalid simply because the body only reaches its lowest basal temp by 4am.

wood it certainly seems you haven't yet ov'd. I'd like to see the full chart though from cd1..
