Come join us on the bumsnet conception bus

[loopylou1984]

Reinstating the gin deck from a previous bus for AF arrivals, and stocking up on pineapple juice and Brazil nuts, fx for lots of BFPs this month.

Maybe it's a stupid question again. .. what is a moon?

Oops sorry mooncup! www.amazon.co.uk/Mooncup-Model-A-Menstrual-Cup/dp/B001EC6FWK

You can use them for af and to keep the jizz up.

Is it not uncomfortable?

This is my first month using it. To be honest it is fab! So comfy, I don't know it's there. I have quite a low cervix so for me it's even more comfy than a tampon during AF.

I might have to get one of those. I tried the softcup things, but found them really hard to get out.

I am home now, thankfully.

Mummy, I think you are our new EWCM champion!

How are the twins, Boris?!

Can I join? AF just arrived so I'm hoping august will be my month. Got a moon cup somewhere but always been scared to use it after reading horror stories about them getting stuck and being removed in A&E - will try anything now though

nomio I don't think mine is as good as kirs yet will keep monitoring! I truly recommend the mooncup fab little thing!

Welcome worm! Lovely to have you could I have some stats please. I hope August is your month too. Sorry about AF! Again I recommend the mooncup to everyone

Welcome, Worm. I have never heard those stories, but am scared now!

Where is everyone tonight?

Sammy, how are you doing?

Welcome worm fx for a short journey. You've put me right off the moon cup!

Wow mummy that is good going and it's great you made the most of the opportunity.

Hope all went well today sammy.

I am now in possession of a thermometer so back to temping tomorrow.

It's eerily quite in here

Hi All :)

So CD23 today. I have a temp drop today, my OPK's have been darkish since yesterday and I'm cramping like mad so pretty sure I'm OVing today. I've been having crazy vivid dreams where I'm actually awake so I've taken my CPAP off (and turned of the machine). Weird.

I'm looking at a BFP due date of 28th according to FF. Fingers crossed. I've told DH I'll go get bloodwork done if we don't catch this week.

Also, my SIL (who I work with as some of you know) is letting me borrow one of her FitBit's so I've been monitoring my steps for a "normal" week all this week. Definitely room for improvement!

There's been some stuff going on with our house and a hail storm so I've had other stuff to focus on but it's still there in the back of my mind... like all of us I'm sure!

Had a huge temp rise of .6

Cramps and nauseous and emotional. Think this is pms. Work stress and Ttc stress woke me up at 3am and I was in floods of tears know I'm not out until af arrives but feeling very negative right now.

mummy I don't temp so don't understand but guessing that's a good sign?! X

Good morning you gorgeous lot!

Nomio I think if you're not afraid to stick a finger up next to it to release the suction then you are ok! It is not hard.

DizzyM yay for back in temping! I was pleased with my ewcm too

BBH I hope you ov soon and get some better sleep! I always have bad sleep around ov time too

Aww kir sorry you're feeling down Hun. Big hugs. Yes a temp rise shows that I ovd yesterday as I suspected. In 2 days FF will give my graph crosshairs and confirm my ov for the day before the rise. So I am currently 1dpo.

Woo! Yay to ov mummy

Whoops forgot to add my dtd from yesterday! That's unlike me! Normally straight on my app before he's even pulled out haha.

nympho do you have new dates yes lovely?

And Bozza I don't have an up to dad test date for you.

Sorry for thread hogging - just nearly threw up, gagged and coughed and coughed but just about managed to keep everything down. Symptom at 1dpo With any luck it means I have had a huge progesterone increase and its going to get that egg well and truly stuck

Blimey mummy morning sickness already!

mummy I'm due to test on Tuesday 28th. When are you and kir testing? We must all be on a simar timeframe? My cramping has stopped so I think I'm 2dpo but dtd this morning just in case.... I have a thumping headache? Symptom or hangover?! If it's a hangover I am getting to be very light weight in my old age....

Boris so is this cycle 14 or 15 for you? I am testing on Wed 29th – though we both know I will be testing from way twerly I am sure it is just a bit of dehydration from the alcohol rather than an actual hangover! Or maybe that is a progesterone surge symptom too?

I have kir down as testing on 25th but think that is a bit early as she ov'd around the same time as us!

Sorry I've been absent girls, I feel so awful I can do nothing more than sit by the toilet. Looking at my phone seems to make me feel worse so I'm not going to be able to catch up. Xx

sammy you poor thing - don't worry about catching up at all. Just rest up lovely. Whats the next step?
