Yep that's me Carrot - any name suggestions (not my strong point!)

CarrotVan · 13/07/2015 13:33

Temperatures rising, patience's getting low, according to our sources, the Summer Bus is the place to go...

To the tune of "It's Raining Men"

Maybe - although Suz was complaining about earworms

Been catching up with everything sorry carrot.
Sorry for everyone who was caught by AF.
I've got a poorly baby whose driving me a bit nuts whingeing. I still have no AF no idea if I'm oving. Looks like it'll be at least august till I get an answer of some kind

sorry to hear that carrot Flowers Flowers

fx for everyone testing over the next few days.

Raluca have you had temp rise yet? I think it took a couple of days for my temp to rise after my +opk and temps rose another two days in a row after that so I think the temp rise can be more gradual than you'd expect

birchygoo · 13/07/2015 14:39

Thanks carrot - any advice on how to share the stats as you have done?

CarrotVan · 13/07/2015 15:23

In the top right of the page on Google docs there should be a blue box with "share" on in and a image of two links. Click on that and you'll get a pop up. In the top section of the pop up there will be a grey box with text that starts with "off" or "anyone with this link can...". Click on that and choose "anyone with this link can view". Then just copy and paste the link below in the thread header here

Can I join you please? This was my first cylce of SME, so still getting the hang of it.

Strangely, I'm now 11 days late for AF, but am resolutely testing negative. With DS we tried one cylce and the first test was a BFP so I'm a bit concerned about what might be going on.

I've just made a GP appointment - any idea what I should expect, though?

CarrotVan · 13/07/2015 15:32

Sometimes you miss a period (anovulatory cycle I think) just because. They might do blood tests to check for HCG that way

Welcome though.

For when this bus fills up and/or people move on to August birchy has set up a hybrid summer bus to see us through for a while

Marmite my temp went up on Saturday, down by 0,1 yesterday and today it is constant. Opk is - today so either it happened on Sat or not at all.
Sorry Carrot for this experience.

PallasCat · 13/07/2015 16:46

Flowers carrot and crunchy Flowers
Rubbish news.
Thanks birchy and carrot for revving up the new bus!
CD20 here and nowt to report.

Snowflake16 · 13/07/2015 17:18

Just catching up, so sorry carrot. FX for August.

Indomitable · 13/07/2015 17:31

Sorry to hear that Carrot.

CD25 here. Was away and busy over the weekend so been reading but not posting. I'd been feeling decreasingly symptomy but have swung back to PMSy.

Got 4 more days of work.

Sizzle81 · 13/07/2015 18:39

So sorry Carrot Flowers

CarrotVan · 13/07/2015 18:49

Thanks everyone. I have wine and am hiding from the MIL.

Just hopped onto the August bus but will keep checking in here for you BFP ????

CarrotVan · 13/07/2015 20:47

Do what I say and not what I do crunchy - don't pee on any sticks until Wednesday. Give the HCG a chance to double before you test again

I've just applied for a promotion because I'm not booking in my maternity leave anytime soon

Woop woop. Hi all.

I'm going to buy a day ticket for this bus but probably join you all with a season pass from next month.

I got married to my hubby a month ago to the day and so this is month 1 of our journey TTC. Not yet had AF however would be surprised if we are successful in our first month.

Look forward to sharing some boiled sweets with you on the journey.

Big hugs to carrot With wine. And chocolate.

FestinaL · 13/07/2015 21:41

Hi! Can I join as well??

Age 32
TTC no. 1
Cycle no. 1
Testing in mid-August...

I had a mc last October (@ 10 weeks), and with one thing and another we're only just thinking of trying again now.

Good luck everyone! Smile

Indomitable · 14/07/2015 06:41

12DPO today. POAS yesterday: -ve. I'm so, so tired today. And have a headache. But then, I didn't get enough sleep this weekend.

To tired to bother with the hassle of POAS this morning. Maybe tomorrow?

weechops · 14/07/2015 07:06

carrot so sorry this wasn't your month

11dpo and my poas addiction got the better of me - bfn. Not really expecting anything else this month and I think I'm ok with that.

If af does get me on Friday I'm going to use the next couple of months waiting for Dh to come home, trying to lose a bit of weight with the 5:2 plan. Have around 2 stone to go!

CarrotVan · 14/07/2015 07:46

Welcome festina

Sorry about the BFNs weechops and indomitable but you might both be testing too early.

Good luck with the weight loss weechops. I've been trying to shift half a stone to get me right in the middle of my ideal BMI. I was having some success with the Davina 7 minute fit videos but lost momentum when our living space got smaller with the building work. I'm quite pleased with myself today as my very slim sister gave me some clothes that no longer fit her and I'm comfortably in a size 10 in 3 different brands!
