MissMartin1992 · 02/06/2015 22:30

MissMartin1992 · 02/06/2015 22:31

wishiwaspregnant · 03/06/2015 06:34

Aw missmartin good to see you again and nice to hear how you and mrs are doing! Must be wired joining a new bus when u don't know everyone?! Maybe we keep this one going? I like the familiar faces here too southy it's like starting over again on the June bus! But lovely ladies over there too!
Hope you are all well. Massive temp rise after dip yesterday which seems to match with my positive opk. So timed dtd very well this month so far! I'm hoping this will do it. My other months have be well off timing wise! Here's hoping. I'll upload my chart once OV has been confirmed by FF. Will keep at it until then! (;

MissMartin1992 · 03/06/2015 07:13

The odds are in your favour night! (Sounded a bit hunger games there!) Just try and keep positive, you have no reason to think negatively at the moment. Hope you're okay Smile

Jodiezakaroon · 03/06/2015 09:16

hey can i join ive been ttc since feb i really thought i was pregnant but af arived yesterday :( is there anything i can do or take to make me fall pregnant quicker im going to download all the fertilty apps and ive joined the clearblue trail my cycles are all rong 25/29/31 days :(

DizzyNorthernBird · 03/06/2015 09:42

Hello can I join back up? I know a few of you on here but don't recognise anyone on the June bus!

For those of you who I've not met before, I used to be on these buses and also bumsnet but couldn't cope keeping up with both so I've been having a little bit of time out Smile but been lurking in the meantime. Congrats to those of you who have had your bfp's!

AF is due on 20th June but I'm convinced I'm having an anovulatory cycle so it could well arrive before then!

My stats are, 35, ttc 1, cycle 6, AF due 20/06/15.

I guess I don't really have much to say seeing as I won't have any tww symptom spotting to obsess over, just feeling a bit lost not having anywhere to post really and you lot seem nice (obviously that means you night lol)

MissMartin1992 · 03/06/2015 09:48

hey dizzy welcome back! Grin x

and welcome Jodie Grin

DizzyNorthernBird · 03/06/2015 09:52

Thanks missmartin, am I right in thinking you're pg? How are things going?

nightandthelight · 03/06/2015 10:04

Welcome back dizzy! Have already said on fb but another anovulatory cycle is major shucks! Fx you have just had your two annual ones in four months and the rest of the year you will ov beautifully and get your BFP :)

Welcome Jodie. Only way to get pg is DTD! However if you have irregular cycles I would recommend Temping (taking your temp each morning) and putting it in a chart. This will tell you whether you ov and how long your luteul phase is (might highlight a problem if it exists). Any questions fire away!

Are you taking folic acid (won't help you conceive but is essential). Do you get fertile cervical mucus?

MissMartin1992 · 03/06/2015 10:13

yep dizzy im 6w5d.. im very sick today but apart from that I'm fine thanks! Smile
great to see u back

Carltonlives · 03/06/2015 10:13

Welcome -jodie sorry for af Sad

Hey dizzyn hope you're okay. Sucks for no ovulation, hopefully it's gearing up for a nice juicy egg next month Smile

I don't feel sick anymore Confused

DizzyNorthernBird · 03/06/2015 10:50

Aw hope you feel better soon missmartin Smile

Hi carlton, don't worry about your lack of nausea, if there's one thing I've learned so far it's not to pay any attention to symptoms yeah right

Thanks again night, I really hope you're right! I've decided to give up on opk's next cycle, they're stressing me out!

Southy84 · 03/06/2015 12:56

Hi dizzy lovely to have you back! I remember you. I joined about a month before the bumsnet bus was formed and as I couldn't keep up with them I stayed on the monthly buses. Fx for you this month, not sure what's going on with me this month either, my temps are ridiculous and I haven't been bothering with OPKs as they stress me out too, although am debating starting them again. May go for cheapies instead of the clearblue ones.

Welcome jodie :)

Sorry to hear about the nausea miss hope it passes quickly for you.

I agree with dizzy carlton I know friends who have had nausea that came and went so try not to worry

TrixieRay · 03/06/2015 14:07

Thanks Southy, Night and Carlton Smile

Southy, try not to worry too much about your temp drop (easier said than done I know) there are lots of possible reasons for a dip. I really hope your results are ok.

Night, currently half way through medication to delay AF - really odd, if I hadn't tested could have pretended I was pregnant! First scan is on 15 June and then start injections with egg collection at the end of June- eek!

Jodie, I second Night's recommendation to try temping. I found it really useful in pinpointing ovulation. My cycle used to fluctuate between 29-34 days (very frustrating!) I started having reflexology once a month and my cycle has been like clockwork since (though I know not everyone is keen on alternate therapy)

Hi Dizzy, I hope the time away helped. I've been very much on/off here over the last few months as after a while ttc starts to take its toll. It's amazing how much things change when you don't check in for a while. I don't think there is anyone left from when I first joined which is a good thing!

Southy84 · 03/06/2015 18:47

Thank you trixie I've started having mild twinges which normally start a week before AF so don't think this has been a lucky month. I have however just emailed a reflexologist, I've been meaning to for a while and your comment has spurred me on. I couldn't afford the accupuncture route but this looks more affordable. That's so exciting you can now start your IVF medication :)

Hairstylisttoboris · 03/06/2015 19:00

Hey ladies I just started reading the June bus and realised I know Very few people, then I found you all here and dizzy n back too :)

I'm struggling to keep up with all the bus threads I gave been on, the bumsnet thread has gone quite quiet now.

jodie I second everything you've been told so far. My doctors advice to me was sex every two to three days through your cycle. Keeps spermz fresh. It can take a while for a mans stocks to regenerate so they say don't have sex too often. Sperm can live for a while in fertile cervical mucus.
It's bloody disappointing isn't if when you don't fall pregnant quickly - we all know that feeling.

MissMartin1992 · 03/06/2015 20:09

i eventually threw up in the back garden this morning (couldnt make it upstairs) dp sure enjoyed washing it away with the hose pipe hehe

nightandthelight · 03/06/2015 20:15

Eek exciting trixie!

Sorry for the throwing up Miss :(

Boris can you update me on where you are in your cycle etc?

Hairstylisttoboris · 03/06/2015 20:32

Night I'm 8dpo - idly googling tiredness as a symptom - ignoring the fact I'm tired coz we went out ladt night and I got woken up loads in the night. Thanks for asking :)

nightandthelight · 03/06/2015 20:55

Ooh Boris when will you test? I am in bed before 9 Hmm I have all my fingers and toes crossed for you lovely!
