BUMSNET - where bums (and hopes) are raised in the quest for a BFP.

[purdiepie]

Are you sick to the tits of baby-making sex? Or are you squelching with rabid lust when the lickle hand strikes cock o' clock? Have you already picked Sophia and Hugo as your baby names? Do you want to gouge out the smug eyes of the pregnant women in Sainsbo's? Do you shove balloons up your Boden sweater and pretend you have baby in your tum-tum? Have you already picked out your Farrow & Ball nursery paint? GREAT! Then you're just like us: We are the friendliest, wittiest, gayest, animal-lovingest, cervical-hunting women you will ever meet.

Come on, you frightened little trying-to-conceive mice...come join the fun on the Bumsnet bus. You know you wanna

Thanks woolly. I always get the same AF symptoms each cycle but the cycle I conceived DD I didn't have any of those symptoms. I hope your lack of a symptom is a good sign.

Thanks dizzym, these next few days will go very slowly with lots of boob prodding my chart is possibly in triphasic territory but given I have no idea what my usual pattern is I'm trying not to speculate!

Ugh miserable outside, am still in my pjs

Grrr. Why do I care so much about what my mother-in-law thinks of my house? I (with DH) have spent all morning deep cleaning everything. Weather has brightened up though so we can have a barbecue even if the sun isn't shining brightly.

purdie not sure how much of a dramatic rise I've had as my temps are generally rubbish!!

But here you go! xxx

Well said Knowing Thank you

Wood, I am sorry, I think I have you mixed up with Woolly

I think you do.... My charts are rubbish rubbish rubbish!

Nice to see a good chart though! x

Thanks for the kind wishes about my boy. He is coping so well with his paw, and hobbling round like a good 'un.

Night How many donkeys do you own now?

Nomio Hope you're enjoying your NT place.

Pixa Enjoy your barbeque! Hope it's nice and sunny.

Sorry I can't offer any charting advice... they all look strange to me because I know nothing! x

Eskimo I missed your post about your boy. So pleased he is doing well and it wasn't anything serious. He's so adorable.

DizzyM, it looks like you ovulated yesterday to me

Don't speculate woolly it just messes with your head. Think positive and try to ignore symptoms or lack of. I know this is hard but there is nothing worse than symptom spotting and the anxiety it causes. Think positive, which I know you already are. It will happen for you.

Do you think so purdie? silly question put to the charting expert I haven't had my solid smiley yet

pixa hope the in laws visit goes well! I know that feeling of wanting to get everything looking just right!

Glad your boy is okay eskimo, give him a pat from us hehe

purdie here's my chart, the sharp rise at 9 dpo was followed by a drop the next day. Bit nervous about temping next few days now and seeing that AF dip

Thanks dizzym you're absolutely right, will try and keep my mindset that way! I also thought you ovulated yesterday x

In that case purdie and woolly I hope I've times dtd right. We dtd late last night and I hope it wasn't too late. I've only had a tiny bit of ewcm this cycle

Afternoon all!

Just catching up on events since yesterday!

woolly I'm afraid I had the same last cycle.... Unusually unsore boobs pre af and no cramps whatsoever.... Total lack of lp symptoms which got my hopes up a bit even though I 'wasnt' getting my hopes up, if you know what I mean..... Af still came bang on cue. That's good though if you are seeing a triphasic pattern though! Keeping my fx for you! X

Ooh just saw your chart woolly, looking good so far! Mine was on the decline by around 11dpo.

I've just had another flashing smiley so that would mean 5 days of flashing smileys. What's going on with my body?

So glittery when you get your bfp you had no intention to move into the grad bus then with us completely awful unmemorable people? I thought the whole point was we were all going to stay friends and all be together on the grad bus when the time came? Did I get this wrong? What is everyone else's idea of what was happening?

Glittery are you serious? I hardly ever posted, no? Are you having a laugh? Yes, Chops that was exactly what the whole point of the mega bus was for - so we all stuck together.

Hey lovelies, life been crazy and as thought got a bfn yesterday and AF arrived today. Blumming Heck Anywhos about to attempt to catch up with you lovely lot and read the whole of the bus before the next one arrives....

What happens when you've been shunned because you've reached the goal we all started this bus with. So you get ignored when you're popping in to check up on your friends. Then if I turn up on Tuesday with a bad outcome of my scan then am I welcomed back with open arms? Would you be pleased for those who have a mc? Because then they sit in the right 'club' to be allowed friends on here. It is all very hurtful and I am sad the buses have gone this way.

Frog, put yer tin 'elmet on!
