The Bumsnet/Angry Pubes Bus

[Mummyofonesofar]

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!

Happy Easter everyone !!

Just had a quick read through but have to get ready to go to a BBQ in a bit even though its bloody snowing!!!! Sod off snow!!!!

night yep get a Babymad thermometer from Amazon for about £5...

I wish I liked the idea of festival going but I just don't. I would be ok on the first day but after camping and putting up with those skanky toilets I would have to leave!!! snob

Purdey Have you changed the spelling of your name or am I going mad?! Sorry you were baby bombed, but wow, I can't believe what your friend had going on inside her but fantastic she is upduffed....

DH and I actually had real life non ttc easter sex this morning....awwww!! FF still thinks I ov'd on CD16 rather than CD18....I don't believe it

night I thought Ovia was shit, especially now they've upgraded their software, I don't use it much any more. My DP is the same in that he finds my approach to ttc a bit too clinical and finds it a bit of a turn off. I try to shield him from it as much as possible except for the thermometer beeping at 6am which gives him much cause for whinging! Tough shit DP! Lol. You should definitely try temping as it's such a useful tool but try not to let it stress you out or it will become counter productive.

pixa work was fine thanks, it was a pretty quiet shift and I was struggling to stay awake until 05.30, then the phone rang and I was busy for the last half an hour. I don't like to say what I do because I don't want to completely out myself on here and people might hate me .

spinning no sign of AF today but I'm not surprised at that, most months I spot for a couple of days before AF and it's not due until Wednesday. however my temps are increasing and I wonder if ive ov'd a few days ago.....this might be a red herring because of my temps being taken after night shifts but if I have then I won't see AF until cd40 (I'm only cd31 today). So I'm stuck in limbo! Very jealous that you're going to Glasto, I've always wanted to go but DP isn't into the whole festival camping thing. We did v-fest a few years ago but I could only persuade him to go for the day. Glasto is miles better though.

How is everyone else? Hope you're all having a lovely Easter Sunday!

purdey did your friend know about the endo before she was diagnosed? Was she in a lot of pain with her organs being stuck together?

tessie yeah for unscheduled sex!

to anyone Ovia is shit. True fact. Dont trust its prediction of fertile periods.

purdey will your mate with her toy boy share his super spunk??

Sorry to anyone having a bad day.

night sorry you got baby bomed at church. That's crap.

yok are you Australian? I feel like I can hear you raise your voice at the end of your sentences. Welcome anyhow.

Thanks Dizzy :) good to know it's not just my DH who finds it off putting!

Anyone able to link me to the correct thermometer, so many to pick from!

I am use Ovia and Glow and find Ovia is offend out in its predictions, even though my cycles can change each month Glow has been able to predict when AF will turn up

night are you looking on google? They only have a handful on there, I went with the hot pink large display one, however I'm slightly sceptical about its accuracy because of my steady temps (if you look carefully you might find a review from me on there ha ha) which may or may not be the thermometers fault. I've now ordered one of the other babymad thermometers that come with opks, a white one. Waiting for this to be delivered so dunno if it'll be any good (but hopefully it will tell me the pink thermometer is broken and not my body lol)

night I have the one step one from Amazon currently costs £7.35 I can't link from the Amazon app sorry.

rainy I'm off to get glow, thanks :)

Sorry night , meant Amazon.

Thanks for your kind words ladies.
I'll still be here lurking/seeing how you're all getting on, however I'm going to take a little break to prepare for my next fertile window. I'm going to ask the gp for bloods too, as I'm spotting through my cycle and I shouldn't be.
Off to see the in laws - I'll check in at some point, if I survive without going on a homicidal rampage.

Just ordered the same one too - def jumping on the temping wagon when AF is finishedhave had 23/24 day cycles for years - so wanna check if I have a problem or if I'm Ov-ing early and it's all honky dory of course I'm hoping for the latter and ignoring the fact that my womanly bits are in disarray at the minute--
boris not an Aussie - wouldn't mind some of their sun right about now tho!
purdey one of my family's little people couldn't say my name and that's what I got called by them

Thanks for all the advice you lovely ladies :) think I will go for the one with the opks like you Dizzy!

Pixa, I've pm'd you about fb

hairstylistoboris i find with Glow you can add much more information than Ovia, but i still use both lol

Tessie, yes! I have changed the spelling! How did you notice that you freak ?? Well done on the SWOI sex. Snowy BBQ sounds rubbish. Unless there are topless [[http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=www.moviepilot.de/files/images/0875/4548/matthew-goode.JPG&imgrefurl=www.moviepilot.de/people/matthew-goode&h=267&w=189&tbnid=jJij23mu-6-sQM:&zoom=1&tbnh=186&tbnw=131&usg=__lhspOtrTWRSRcsSoACqMIwFGhz0=&docid=dDA8knJ0spyJSM&itg=1 Matthew Goode]] lookey-likeys parading round proffering their cocks in hotdog buns.

Night, try to rein in the telling-DH-everything-about-your-tracking strategies. They're not interested. In fact, they can't stand hearing about the details; they only seem interested so we'll keep having sex. It really does put them off their stride to keep hearing how 'It's nearly time!'; 'I've got egg white stretchy snot in me knicks!'; 'We will need to be getting it on tomorrow through Wednesday!' From what I keep reading Ovia is about as useful as a condom machine in the Vatican. Night, is it you who gets obsessive about things? I hope I'm not fuelling some new neuroses

I don't like the sound of your vicar. What kind of prick tease announces that 'someone' in his congregation is pregnant but remains tight-lipped about which bird has le Easter bun in th'oven? I'll bet it's his missus. I'll bet they left your soggy-bottomed-quiche tea party and went home and had lusty sex whilst he imagined you sucking him off instead of his cat-bum-pouting missus. Dirty bastard.

Hmm..perhaps that link failed a smidge

Here is the cock-in-bun hot dog waiter at my dream BBQ...

I'm giving up swearing. I'm going to go to Hell at this rate.

Nice shagging Tessie

Last month was my first temping. There's no way I'm waking up early to do it so just do it when I happen to wake up, you could still see when I ovulated so good enough for me.

Really looking forward to going home tomorrow. I'm longing to eat a vegetable that still had some structural integrity.

Welcome to the madhouse, Yokyil. I am now trying to figure out what your real name could be!

Hope you are feeling better now, Mrsb.

I have had a super lazy day of sleeping, eating chocolate & reading. Sometimes I wonder why I want a screaming, needy baby to come & ruin it all!

That made me burst into laughter purdey! I did think that it was out of order as presumably he was told in confidence, it it were me I would be furious.

I do get obsessed about things, will try and stay calm.

Tessie, I really do think FF have got it wrong, largely because I don't believe very many women ov on the same day as their opk, and from what I can tell, that is all the 'evidence' FF has for pinpointing your ovulation where they have. Loons.

I can't honestly believe there are men out there moaning about a miniscule beep from a thermometer - or are you lot using some drum 'n' bass version? My beep is so soft and tiny I doubt it would cause umbrage for a slumbering gnat, let alone an adult, snoring male.

Oh, Dizzy! Now you have piqued my interest to the point that I am imaging all kinds. I actually hate very few people (feminists; gypsies; Lefties; Humanists; Nicola Sturgeon; Kim Kardashian; pagans; yacht owners; people who walk slowly; anyone thin and beautiful) so I am intriiiiiiigued to know what you do for a living! Won't you join the fb group so we can know?

Yes, Dizzy, my friend was in tons of pain around her period.

MrsB, ask for a scan to check all is well after the mmc. Did you have an ERPC?

Yokyil, now you've got me wondering what the heck your name is I'm guessing it's not Elizabeth

Oyster! at structural integrity veggies!
