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.

eskimo my period last month was light, this month much heavier. Wouldn't worry. Fx for clomid!

spinning sorry for AF

Cd6. Boring boring.DH being v cute, asking whether he needs to be takin anything, saying he'll do whatever it takes. He's super healthy and fit though so don't want him to be getting obsessed or worried at this stage.

Does anyone else work out the due date if they conceived in a particular month? Or am I just nuts?!

eskimo sorry I can't help you. I've not wen on a drug induced bleed. My more natural bleeds can vary though.

kir I always calculate my due date if...

So sorry for all the AFs girls.

DizzyN sorry for your BFN yesterday! Good luck for Thursday x

auf we can hand hold to 12 weeks together x

BBH please test!!

Thanks pixa & pikz for the congratulations.

kir I was always working due dates. And ages of the potential baby at events we have planned next year. Just a bit crazy

Trying to keep up argh!!!!

Kir I always work out due dates too. If I were to get a BFP this cycle I would have a 3rd May dd as well as 2dcs birthdays on the 13th & 19th May. The other dc is right before Christmas as well haha. I daren't stop ttc this month as DH only wants to carry on until the end of the year

Thanks auf and pikz.

I'm now very sceptical of NHS SA results! I'm sure it was nomio who said her GP had no faith in these NHS tests and they are poorly understood. I completely agree now.

Kir I must admit I did work out the month sometimes but not the dates!

Keep going beaut you will get there.

Hope you feel better soon chops.

Morning!

Wow dizzym congratulations! That's amazing news! How many dpo are you?

babybump I am your cycle twin but it was the other dizzy who got her bfp! I got a bfn yesterday but af isn't due until Friday so there's still time!

Will update properly later, but just had my scan and one ovary is still enlarged with free fluid so they said no to FET next cycle. Now means we're looking at the end of September for drugs with transfer the 1st week of October ????
Feeling very teary now and have to go back to work.

I work out the month but not the date. I don't really think beyond getting pg and it's only recently that I actually had a look online at baby clothes!

I didn't poas this morning, didn't think there was much point after yesterday. My temps seem to be plateauing at around 36.6ish so will see what happens tomorrow but otherwise I'll probably leave it now to wait for af. No symptoms at all, I just feel the same as I do every month.

Oh sammy, that is very frustrating , I'm so sorry to hear that. Why is your ovary filled with fluid? Is this something normal that happens to everyone?

sammy really sorry about the fluid and the time it's going to take to have a go at ivf. Also really crap you have to go off to work. Big hugs x

Thanks dizzy. I'm 13dpo today. My temps are never too high and if I didn't have that slight rise I wouldn't have bothered to test so you never know. I have everything crossed for you.

That's frustrating sammy. I'm so sorry. Is it something they have to leave alone or can they do anything to help it?

mummy how are you? Are you back from your weekend away?

Congrats again dizzym, I'm chuffed to bits for you. It's been a good couple of weeks here with some well overdue bfps to give the rest of us hope!

Fx the bfp's start to roll in now.

I'm pretty certain this isn't my month. Just been comparing my chart with an old one and my temps seem to be following the same pattern. I know we always say not to read into what our temps are doing but I'm sure a consistent pattern speaks for itself.

I've been thinking about getting my results on Thursday and wondering what would be better......finding out there's a problem which would explain why we're not having any luck, but Being in a position to do something about it, or finding out there isn't a problem, which would be a relief but then having to continue on each month wondering when or if it will happen for us?

Sorry for the barrage of me posts.

My temps never seemed to be as high as other people's and I assumed that was the problem. The flow seems to be consistent though but this months chart is shocking!

I don't really know what's better dizzy but I haven't dealt with the frustration of 'unexplained' fertility as mine has always been fully explained but frustrating all the same. I always thought a problem could be 'fixed' but both times we conceived naturally. DH pointed out last night that we haven't used contraception since DD was born, who is now 2.6. I'm just rambling now and I still don't know the answer. Wishing you lots of luck dizzy.

sammy that sucks! :( Oh I'm so sorry about another month's delay! At least you know they are there and ready and waiting for you. My suggestion is to go all out on gin and martinis, sushi, yummy cheeses, trampolining and horse riding, vigorous sex, unwashed tomatoes, questionable take-out meals, ibuprofen, and saunas for the next two months.
dizzyN it's a tough call I can tell. Luckily you don't have a choice. It'll be one or the other so you can't blame yourself at all. It will just be what it will be. FWIW I would definitely hope that you can have some intervention to speed things up/make a baby. Even if they say they can't find anything wrong but willing to throw something at you to see if it helps. And that it will help soon! :)
mummy

Girls I am signing off for a few days, but will be back to check in. May the BFP's be with you!

auf loving your ideas for sammy :-) mmmm brie, wine....

Did a walmart 88c test this morning, 12DPO/CD35, and bfn. Have since discovered they're a sensitivity of 25 so I'm still hopeful...

Still burping, still nauseated. Had a shitty dream that someone came in the house once DH left for work and try as I might I couldn't shake it completely so woke an hour earlier than normal...

DizzyNorth I knew it was a dizzy! Still in till the witch pays a visit. I'm hoping this isn't another annovulatory cycle messing with my hopes... finding out an answer either way I think will help at least an little. I can't be sure DH isn't firing blanks, or that I'm ovulating at all. I think knowing would ease a little more stress

baby I think I hate anovulatory cycles more than I hate af! At least with af you know where you stand.... Anovulatory cycles are true limbo. When is af due for you?

Thanks dizxym and auf for helping put things into perspective. auf enjoy your time out, looking forward to seeing you again soon.

Found a streak of blood in my cm earlier. It's a few days early seeing as af shouldn't be due until Saturday (I think) but I'd forgotten that ff kept on changing my ov date, so there's every chance that today is actually 14dpo and not 12dpo,which means spotting is bang on cue and af will come on Thursday. Blairgowrie.

Blairgowrie? What the bejesus does that mean?!! Damn auto correct!!!

You guys have just inspired me to shoot out to tesco to grab some brie and bacon and a baguette! I usually avoid bread but sod it!!
