The Bumsnet Bus: It doesn't matter how long your journey, or how many twists and turns you've taken, there can only be one destination: BFP! Wipe your flaps and jump aboard!

Thought I'd get this party started. Here's the stats: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sHG9PPsOs0yIqgR-o2UXX_fdlCQXdVNLfmPpNOePPjQ/edit

May this bus yield many BFPs! Hoorah!

Kir I have been pretty much the same as every month so yes Af symptoms. Crampy and a grumpy cow. The only difference is I usually get really windy in the run up to Af and I haven't been

I hope my posts aren't annoying anyone. I honestly thought it wouldn't happen. It should give you all hope. We had even started our fertility tests.

Beaut Don't be daft! We're all thrilled for you, and 13 months of trying; you deserve a bit of attention! I just want everyone on this bus to get their BFPs!

Congrats beaut! Such awesome news

Congratulations beaut!!! Great line!! I thought AF was going to rock up my bfp month too. I had 2 or 3 days of cramps and knicker watching and then the cramps stopped! After my bfp at 16dpo the symptoms really started!

Well Eskimo you know what they say, you wait all this time for a bfp and then they all show up at once
Hopefully beaut will be a trendsetter!

Beautician wow, congratulations! Superb news, I'm thrilled to bits for you. Have you stopped trembling yet?! I just popped in for a catch up and was so pleased to see your news .

Congratulations beaut!!!

Congrats beaut! Awesome news

Not sure why it has posted twice!

Congratulations beaut! Fx af stays away at the weekend!

Many congratulations beaut that's an awesome line! There's nothing annoying about your posts we're all thrilled for you.

I'm also thrilled to announce AF has arrived!!! So for stats DizzyMerry, ttc#2, cycle 17 I think, bfp due 26/11.

Kir I've got everything crossed for you.

Thanks dizzym! Happy for you that your af has arrived. Hope it's over with swiftly so you can get on with ovulating!

Stats updated for you DizzyM Glad that AF has finally arrived x x

I'm snuggled with my girl-dog watching Paul O'Grady's For The Love of Dogs. It's very warm- a bit too warm really, but I'm not moving her

Good news dizzym, I bet you're glad to see the back of that wtf cycle.

Magster Have you had any more blood today? What CD are you on? x x

Thanks for updating my stats eskimo.

Didn't know how I'd feel to see AF again but I'm actually elated fifi. We can now start ttc again properly.

CD10 for me today eskimo and no more bleeding. Just waiting and hoping for ovulation now. I ovulated on CD16 on both of my clomid induced ovulatory cycles last time. That was 3 years ago so not sure if it'll be different this time, hope it works! I'm just about to do an OPK. I do love peeing on sticks

Good luck! When will you start DTD? x

We did yesterday, just in case
Contemplating going for it again tonight, OPK was negative to the point of not even having a second line but I figured it can't do any harm to get as much in a possible. TTC is just full of romance isn't it?

Oh, it's just the best, isn't it? During our sexy-fun time this afternoon, my DH said that he couldn't ejaculate. So whilst he was still trying, and still pumping away, I suggested that he pull out, and then wank until he was ready and then put it back in. His response?? 'SHHHHH... the word 'wank' is just not a sexy word is it? You're putting me off...'

He managed it eventually, but it was touch and go (no pun intended). I am going to have to consider giving him a day off tomorrow...

beaut that is AMAZING!!!? CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! Well done to you both! Luck number 13 ahhhh that has made my day!!!!! How is your hubs taking it? Has it sunk in with you yet??

Thank you so much for forwarding your stats! You guys really made an effort and it paid off!!! And good to hear you were on top mainly too!

I hope this is the start of a pandemic of BFPs around the group-you're next Kir!!!

eskimo well done you little minx!! I think you can let yourselves have a day off

Such wonderful news xx

Lol eskimo that's actually hilarious, well done to Mr Eskimo for persevering! It'll all be worth it for that bfp! How's the pain been?

Hope you're enjoying your evening of celebrations beaut! (non alcoholic of course!)

Congratulations beaut finally a bfp for the bus!! Did you normally have a shortish luteal phase or am I thinking of someone else?

Magpie The pain has been fine! It was still irritable at the beginning of the week, but has gradually lessened and was ok yesterday and today. It's not perfect, but it's not bothering me at all, thankfully.

Congrats beaut that's a brilliant line you have!!
