Loving all the chat... This bus has got a really positive vibe to it Smile

Btw wotsit if you are looking for a pram can I recommend the Bugaboo cameleon 3! and I am totally planning to get the bugaboo double pram if I have another baby in the near future!!

coffeenut · 23/03/2015 23:24

The ipad app is crashing for me.

Nomio its my first time temping so not sure what is normal for me! Thanks everyone for responding, the temps are overall higher than the pre ov temps. Its a cold day today here too not sure if that makes a difference (has been quite warm).

DizzyMerry · 23/03/2015 23:33

I'm off to get some Brazil nuts tomorrow, so excited!!! Oh that's if you lot haven't already cleared the supermarket shelves Hmm
Can't help with the app I'm afraid but have been meaning to download it so will do that later.
I could never get into temping because strangely every time I tried I didn't sleep well so gave up. Tried again this cycle but DD hasn't been sleeping too well due to a cold which means I haven't been sleeping well either. I would love to be able to though as seeing other people's charts is fascinating but sincerely hoping I don have to any time soon

Sparkly123 · 23/03/2015 23:54

melon big virtual girl slap to your chops!! I know it's an exciting prospect.. But hold off until that BFP .. It's coming!!! Flowers I totally haven't picked a pram and cot already either, that's just madness Wink

Need to get me some Brazil nuts by the sound of things!

Sorry everyone is having trouble with OPKs. I use ICs along with my freebie CB Dual hormone from the CB trios and they always correspond and work well for me. I think ICs are hard with the whole "is it a line" confusion.

victoria don't peak too soon lovely that's all I'll say!! And re me and TTC this cycle.. I hope to try yes. What do you think??

I don't use the app ladies, just use the browser site on my phone but never an issue?

coffee try not to stress about temps. I've seen so many crazy charts in pregnancy that there seems to be no textbook case. Keep positive! Star

coffeenut · 24/03/2015 00:16

Thanks sparkly Flowers ... once again you are full of wisdom. This whole thing is making me nuts.

laurasdream · 24/03/2015 00:25

Hi ladies can I book a seat on the April bus? I may just lurk in the back for awhile x

Hi Laura, welcome to the bus Smile

The app was crashing for me last night but is ok again this morning.

I got some Brazil nuts, have snuck them in to dhs smoothie as he wasn't keen and he can't taste them so that's how he'll be getting them!

Either 6 or 8 dpo here, feel no different to the last -16 cycles. Hmm

tessiegirl · 24/03/2015 07:26

Morning everyone!! I'm up nice and early (for me!) having a cup of Brew then meeting friends late morning for breakfast. I'm starving so had a sneaky piece of toast to keep me going....!! CD14 here....come on eggy eggy eggy....come out to play!!! Smile

Sammy love the way you are putting brazil nuts into DH smoothie - fantastic idea!!

Laura Big welcome! I remember you from before on the buses, sorry to hear you have had another chemical Sad So pleased you have hope of an appointment, wishing you all the best

Mum I just had a look at the Bugaboo Cameleon 3 pram!!! I like it!!! Now, I shall stop looking..... Hmm yeah right!

cremedecacao · 24/03/2015 07:29

I'm 6 dpo too... and not feeling any different either! Totally thought I'd get pregnant right away after my mmc (no idea why I thought this!), and certainly after three cycles as I'd read that younger couples generally conceive within this time. I have a feeling I am not going to fit into the 'generally' category!

wotsits1 · 24/03/2015 07:41

Sammy I like your style! 2 Brazil nuts a day it is then!

Welcome Laura!

I love the look of the bugaboo. Since dd is 8 and I always thought I wouldnt have another... I got rid of everything baby related. All I kept was her cot, my breast pump and the steriliser. We had a mamas and papas pram for her and it was fab. We totally got out wear out of it but it was wrecked by the end anyway!

loopylou1984 · 24/03/2015 07:43

Tessie - he does know about it, I'm not sneaking them in in secret! He just didn't want to eat them by themselves... Fair enough I day, they don't have much taste!
Creme - I don't fit into the general category either... I hate the general category! Xx

coffeenut · 24/03/2015 08:17

another one feeling absolutely no different at 6dpo (but I had no symptoms with previous pregnancies until at least 6 weeks!) ... implantation doesn't happen until at leat 7dpo anyway does it - so if we had symptoms at this stage they'd be completely imaginary Wink

loopylou1984 · 24/03/2015 08:42

Thank you coffee for being the voice of reason! It's too easy to just give up on a cycle!

All I want is to have sore boobs and feel sick! Is it really too much to ask?! Grin

spinningirl10 · 24/03/2015 09:39

Morning Smile

Tessie, enjoy your brekkieSmile

Welcome Laura, sorry you've had another early loss but good news on the appointment. Hope you get your sticky bfp soon.

Good idea on Brazil nuts in a smoothie. It's amazing what you can sneak into those things and not taste!

Cd8 here Smile

Mumof1sofar · 24/03/2015 09:51

Welcome Laura. That's great you've got an appt with the fertility Dr. Fx for you.

Eek so jealous of all you lot in the 2ww... Only on cd6 here! Had a glass of pineapple juice with my brekkie though (am I meant to drink it every day??) & got my Brazil nuts to snack on Smile

chillthefXXkout · 24/03/2015 10:28

Hello! I am a complete newbie to all this but have been lurking here for a while.

I came off the pill this month after 13 years, like lots of us I always thought that if you ever dtd without protection then you would absolutely end up pregnant! I have no idea what to expect, as my body hasn't had a 'normal' period since I was 18 so I'm nervous and excited and terrified.

Stats: chillthefXXkout, 31, ttc #1, Bike 1, BFP due 20th April

DizzyMerry · 24/03/2015 10:51

Morning all!
Welcome laura sorry about your losses but glad you have an appointment with a specialist.
Welcome chill like the username.
I will be popping out for my Brazil nuts later and will get some grapefruit juice for ewcm as still no smily on cd 12 but hoping I do ovulate in the next few days

Mumof1sofar · 24/03/2015 11:27

Welcome chill & good luck Smile

coffeenut · 24/03/2015 11:31

hi chill and laura. Sorry about the CP laura Sad ... but glad that you are feeling positive about the doc appointment!

excited about all you ladies heading towards ov!

wotsits1 · 24/03/2015 11:48

welcome chilli!

Yeah I always though dh would only have to throw his boxers at me and I'd get preggers. No such luck!

I have no idea what dpo I am. Who knows? I think I ov'd on Sunday? at least... I got a clearblue smiley on sunday. Got a 'is it? Isn't it? opk on sat and a neg on Monday so I'm gonna say I ovd on Sunday. we DTD sat, sun, Mon and will go again tonight for good measure. This is exhausting!

wotsits1 · 24/03/2015 11:49

Morning Girls

Just checking in, nothing really to report, Hope everyone is feeling positive for April BFPs!

on my break, can't wait to get home

tessiegirl · 24/03/2015 12:18

Back from breakfast and shopping - I couldn't find brazil nuts!!!! Sad Every bloody nut apart from brazil!! Did manage to get pineapple juice though - anyone know how much you are supposed to drink a day? Big glass, small glass???

So I got back, unpacked the shopping and took the cat out for a walk (yes, I know Blush but living here we have to be careful of stray dogs, cats and diseases so we keep our cat inside and take her for walks round the garden on a lead for anyone who doesn't already know. I'm not a complete nutter, honest!) We were walking around garden and a dog came walking along with its owner and came up to our gate. I grabbed our cat but it was too late, she saw the dog and as she struggled out of my arms she clawed my face and neck. Great. Now sitting smothered in antiseptic cream with red claw marks to go with the red spots on my face I had anyway. I look great at the mo honestly!!!!! Smile Thankfully the cat has recovered and doesn't realise what all the fuss was about.

Ha sammy I thought you were sneaking the brazil nuts into his smoothie!!! At least he is getting them somehow....

Welcome chill and best of luck!!

Hi to everyone else!! Smile

wotsits1 · 24/03/2015 12:35

Oh dear Tessie! Cat scratches are the worst! My mums cat used to lie on the stairs and make a grab for you as you passed. ouch!

BabyBumpHopeful · 24/03/2015 13:03

I'm trying real hard not to do the "crazy lady" shopping thing but the other day was shopping for presents for niece and nephew and was all "eeeeee" looking at the adorable baby clothes I can might be able to get.

Also, might also have a breast feeding shield, car seat cover and a few baby specific tupperware items... they were a bargain I didn't want to miss, honest!
