If you can keep up with a bus that fills up in one weekend and chat shit then jump aboard the bus you are never allowed to leave! Trying to set a target for most BFPs on one bus!

No LPBs allowed!

Spinning and Victoria I am basing my cycle predictions on my average 26 day cycle (normal range 23-28 days) but last month it was 24 days with spotting two days before. If it is at the lower end of the range again I would be more like 9-10 dpo in which case symptoms could be possible. This is when having done opks would really come in handy!

victoria401 · 05/04/2015 08:47

pixa no I've not. I've not seen a doc about it though! It usually eases as I move about and I still get on with yoga, Zumba etc. I've had it every couple of weeks for months now (at least 6!). Keep thinking it will go away by itself.

night no, you're not allowed to symptom spot! When are you 'due'? I'm April 12th ish.

nightandthelight · 05/04/2015 08:50

Same Victoria Although as post above explains there could be some lee way on that :s

Pixa · 05/04/2015 08:56

Victoria I haven't had sciatica in ages. The physio focused on some core strengthening exercises. It has made my life so much better. Easter Smile If the sciatica still bothers you a lot, I would definitely get it checked out.

spinningirl10 · 05/04/2015 09:01

Ah yes of course we are NightGrin

Victoria, there's loads of us due next weekend, let's hope this bus will be awash with bfpsGrin
Your sciatica sounds awful Hmm
I'm 8/9 dpo, wish I could have taken my temp this morning!

Yokyil · 05/04/2015 09:06

Hey all - gonna jump on! In the throes of AF - good job it's Easter egg day Wink choc overload! Hope you all have a good one Grin

spinningirl10 · 05/04/2015 09:13

Welcome Yokyil,
Enjoy your eggs. How long have you been trying?

Victoria, I'm always hopeful and we dtd over ov time. However I was lurking on the IvF page and someone there was saying that due to her dh's shit sperm the consultant had made it very clear they should only dtd eod to let sperm replenish! It's so tough to know what to do for the best!

Oysterbabe · 05/04/2015 09:15

Morning lovelies!
Stop with the symptom spotting! Excited about the possible bfp's next week though.
CD8. A week until ovulation.
Currently watching OH coo over his 3 month old niece. She is very cute and he's the broodiest man in the world.

spinningirl10 · 05/04/2015 09:31

Hi Oyster, hope you're enjoying your break. Niece cuddles sound lovelySmile

Yokyil · 05/04/2015 09:33

spinning just since December - had a mc in January so been a rubbish few months but not moreso than anyone else's. Onwards to the next cycle ...roll on Friday to get going again Wink

Yokyil · 05/04/2015 09:34

Aww oyster nothing like that to tug on the old heart strings Blush We had niece and nephew for a sleep over last night...hilarious

Riceicle1 · 05/04/2015 09:42

Happy Easter everyone, today will mostly be spent scoffing and sobbing! I have planned a schedule of shagging for my fertile time as well as doing it everyother day all throughout the month (romantic hey!!) nothing like being proactive to distract from misery! Going to try different positions and different times to see if that helps ( rather that always doing it at bed time in the missionary position!)
Watched the corrie omnibus yesterday, not a good plan to watch 14 year old fay give birth when I was feeling so sensitive Sad
Anyway Flowers and choccy eggs for everyone who is frustrated/sad/angry, and to everyone who is still doing the dance- I hope you can channel your inner Easter bunny and literally go at it like a rabbit! X

spinningirl10 · 05/04/2015 09:53

MrsB, sorry I missed your post. I'm sorry you're having a bad morning. These things sometime jump out at us, have a cry and then shower and get out and do some thing nice with dh. You will get your babyThanks

spinningirl10 · 05/04/2015 09:54

Yokyil sorry to hear of your mc, fx you get a sticky bean soon.

Riceicle, I'm liking your dtd plans, good luckWink

Sparkly123 · 05/04/2015 10:28

spinningirl10 · 05/04/2015 10:33

Ah sparkly, we missed you. Enjoy your daySmile

Pixa · 05/04/2015 10:37

Welcome Yokyil sorry to hear about you mc.

Love the shag like rabbits anecdote, Riceicle.

Ladies, how do you plan travel around ttc? We have lots of UK weekends away planned (one a month until the end of September!) but we want to go abroad. Do you just book a last minute break? We have been holding off but we really need a break!

spinningirl10 · 05/04/2015 10:42

Go for it Pixa, you really can't put your life on hold and if you are pregnant it will Be nice to enjoy time as a couple before the mayhem beginsGrin

spinningirl10 · 05/04/2015 10:44

We're going to Glastonbury and I have to pay the balance in the next couple of days. Dp said we wouldn't go if I was pregnant but I'm not so we'll take a chance. I'd be happy to go pregnant anywaySmile

Pixa · 05/04/2015 10:51

Spinning Glastonbury sounds great! I have never been to a festival. Easter Grin You will have a great time.

spinningirl10 · 05/04/2015 10:56

Pixa, no nor me!! My dd has been to them all except Glasto and she's coming with us. Can't wait.......except for the toilet situ, think I'll take a bucketBlushGrin

Pixa · 05/04/2015 10:59

Haha, Spinning that is exactly why I haven't been to a festival. I would quite happily go to one if I could stay in a hotel (even though I love camping) - it's the festival cleanliness issues that scare me.

Pixa · 05/04/2015 11:00

Your daughter sounds like she will be an excellent festival guide. Easter Grin

spinningirl10 · 05/04/2015 11:07

Hmm just hoping now that af won't be with me, that would be bad!!! Off to check app!! Dd and I don't like the same music so although I keep laughing saying that I'll be tagging along with her for all the bands I think she'll disappear!Grin

spinningirl10 · 05/04/2015 11:08

Oh shit, af due day before Glasto, bugger.......I need my bfp!!!!
