Whether you have just started trying or been at it for years. Using IVF, AI, or just good old fashioned shagging, all are welcome.

Come join our crazy bus of laughter, tears and friendship on our way to BFP land.

It is funny you say that, Boris. My DH has a PHD & I always tease him for not being a real Dr, but whenever he mentions it to a medical Dr, they always say that he is the real Dr!

Beaut, I forgot to say earlier, congratulations on your beauty room. Sounds like hard work, but hopefully it will be a big success for you.

DizzyN, most of our stuff has been packed & in storage for the last few months, so it shouldn't be too traumatic when we move this time. (She said naively.)

I seem to be out of sync with everyone this month, I am 5DPO.

Thanks to everyone for the lovely welcomes Smile, I feel like I belong!
I got confused before I think, I'm 3dpo not cd3, I'm cd17. So is anyone my cycle buddy?
nomio - yes I know what you mean - I could kill dh with his relaxed attitude sometimes! Exciting about you nearly moving too - bet you can't wait!
dizzy - 13dpo, exciting, when will you test? I'm terrible for early testing - not that it's ever got me anywhere!! Yes the babybombs are the worst, I get really worked up about it sometimes - dreading who will be next. The mad thing is ones who have babybombed me whilst I've been ttc are starting to get close to due dates and I'm still nowhere even near a bfp Envy

MrsKittenPie · 29/07/2015 19:36

nomio - we're nearly in sync! I'm 2 days behind you Smile

Kirjava · 29/07/2015 19:41

Oooo we could have some BFPs in the next week or so. Fx ladies!

MrsKittenPie · 29/07/2015 19:46

kirjava - thank you, would be great and for everyone to get theirs too! Let's hope it's a record breaking month for bfps here Smile

RalucaMorena · 29/07/2015 20:12

Anyone knows what is the proper dance (apart for bd ) to summon bfps?? Grin

Nomio230 · 29/07/2015 21:18

Sadly not, Ral, otherwise I would be upduffed by now!

Yay for my almost cycle twin, Kitten!

Love your fortune cookie sammy! I got one saying my life was going to change in a big way before my bfp :-)

Funny how lots of you guys are in sync. I was sync'd with my workmates at one point, but that's probably different.

MrsKittenPie · 29/07/2015 22:05

nomio Grin - bfp twins then?! Smile

Nomio230 · 29/07/2015 22:20

It's a deal, Kitten!

DizzyNorthernBird · 29/07/2015 23:03

kitten I've already tested twice and bfn. Big temp drop today too so I'm out I reckon. I'm getting some blood test results back tomorrow so have got that to 'look forward' to I suppose Hmm

BabyBumpHopeful · 30/07/2015 02:08

CD36, 13DPO... still BFN. Negative HPT and faint line on an OPK which isn't unusual to me (taken to see if I was oving late instead and also another HCG check).

Who knows at this point! Told myself I would try not to take another HPT until the weekend if AF still hasn't visited and then call my OB on Monday too discuss whether I should wait until my period starts or whether there's anything they can do for me now...

DizzyN Yay congrats on DH's new job! Sounds like it's all on the up :)

Welcome to the newbies as well :)

DizzyNorthernBird · 30/07/2015 07:11

Morning!

I'm up very early again! Wtf is wrong with me, it's my days off!!

MrsKittenPie · 30/07/2015 07:39

Morning everyone! dizzy - not good on your day off! I could barely drag myself out of bed this morning! How's your temp today?

DizzyNorthernBird · 30/07/2015 08:23

Hi kitten, crap isn't it! I have no idea what is wrong with me! It's because DP is on his early shifts so his alarm is going off at 06.20. Usually I sleep right through and barely register! I had a crap nights sleep too after I stupidly had a cappuccino when we were out for dinner last night!

Temp is still low. Wishing af would just hurry up and arrive now!

How are you today?

DizzyNorthernBird · 30/07/2015 08:54

Just got my test results through for anyone who's interested!

All is looking good. I'm free of diseases and my hormones are all looking good - my prog level was apparently 56 and 20 is their benchmark. Everything is looking good which is a relief.

She said next step would be to get DP to have a SA. I'm not sure whether DP will be willing to do this seeing as we've only been trying for 7 months and given his 'relax and it'll happen' attitude....I'm kind of inclined to agree if he's reluctant, I think we probably need to work on more sex at the right time- only managed it twice this cycle!

So I can chill the fuck out now!! Grin

Mummyofonesofar · 30/07/2015 09:06

DizzyN that's great news Hun!! So pleased everything seems ok x

MrsKittenPie · 30/07/2015 09:21

dizzyn - I hate that when you have a crap nights sleep and then wake up stupidly early! Early night for you tonight then Smile
yes chill the fuck out now!!! That's great news about your results, must be a big relief!! GrinGrin

MrsKittenPie · 30/07/2015 09:22

I'm okay this morning 4dpo, trying not to get my hopes up like I have done for the last 13 months but it's hard not to!

DizzyNorthernBird · 30/07/2015 09:35

It is a big relief, I feel so relaxed now! Last night when I couldn't sleep I was even worrying about if my hiv test came back positive....even though I've been tested for it before and know it couldn't be!

Yes I think trying not to get your hopes up is virtually impossible. But it's great to hear you can still be positive after such a long time.

Thanks mummy! How are you today? I was so hoping I could join you and dizzym with a bfp, but I've just started spotting! The temps don't lie hey lol.

DizzyMerry · 30/07/2015 09:53

Great news dizzy. Your progesterone levels are perfect. I know your DP wants to take the relaxed approach but wouldn't it be better to get the SA done now and it's out of the way? I'm sorry you've started spotting. Ttc is a difficult journey but you will get there.

Sammy love the fortune cookie!

Hairstylisttoboris · 30/07/2015 10:03

Good news dizzyn hope you can convince DH to get his SA.

I got locked out of MN this morning, only just been able to get in...

Does anyone else take pregnacare? I've just started again having previously stopped taking them. Now I remember why I stopped, I have a massive headache, they made me feel ill before. Is this just me? Very annoying.

DizzyMerry · 30/07/2015 10:44

Boris I take pregnacare and I've never had any problems but before I started them I did search for reviews online and a lot of people did report headaches whilst taking them. I took them and hoped for the best! Maybe switch to another brand.

RalucaMorena · 30/07/2015 10:49

Boris i used to take pregnacare and actually felt pregnant before first pack was over. after first mc, still on pregnacare I felt pg again after first af and was a blighted ovum ergo mc#2. Not sure if it was related to pregnacare, probably not.I'm currently on 7seas but i'm thinking of switching back to pregnacare, this time his&hers.Hmm

nightandthelight · 30/07/2015 11:35

Yay Dizzy fantastic news! If you can get DP to do an SA that would be great as then you would have ruled out a lot of the potential issues and would know just to up the dtd! Easier said than done I know!
