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!

I'm ok rainy. Just trying not to think about test day as it's just too scary. 1 day at a time. Dh is so excited and keeps putting his hand on my tummy which is lovely but makes me realise just how much he wants this. Xx

Hi all

congratulations lily!! So pleased this didnt turn out to be another chemical

sammy keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you! How exciting, you totally deserve a bfp after all this time!

rainy hope the clomid helps you next month, if not at least you are moving forward!!

madam sorry you and your dh have been through such a tough time, I hope there is some light at the end of the tunnel for you very soon.

Im going to sneak off the bus as I finally got my bfp earlier this week, will be following though, I especially want to see sammys up date in a few days time!!

Bean - congratulations!!!! Xx

Just checked the stats, 17 cycles!!! Well done you :). Xx

Congratulations Bean!

Thanks both, it was actually cycle 18 sammy was losing hope fast!

Bean that's great news, congratulations!!

hey ladies,

not been on for a while, due to work demands. It appears that we have some really good news here of late..

Congratulations to Bean and Lilly. Fx for Sammy's bfp in the next few weeks.

Sorry to here the troubles madam and rainy are experiencing at the moment. Hopefully 2016 will give us all some good luck!

As for me, i'm still waiting for my appointment to come through, started taking conception vitamins - every little helps eh? Not had AF since June and i'm eager to start temping so i can get into the swing of it etc but god knows when i'll next see AF! it's so fustrating!

Rainy, what measure of measly bastard only prescribes one cycle of Clomid??! I hope you have success

Soda, steady on, you crazy cats!

Deep breaths, darling Sammy, and hold on tight xx

Sammy Glad your doing ok and i think taking it one day at a time is all you can do, i can only imagine how scary it is, sending all my positive vibes your way, you so deserve to get your bfp!!

Thanks Bean and big congrats to you!!! x

Thoughtful she only prescribed one cycle as she wants to have another SA from dh and then she will take action depending on that!!

Bean that's great news. Congratulations lovely. Did you do anything different this cycle?

I'm currently 3dpo beaut and trying not to think about it too much!

Rainy I'm pleased that things are moving for you now.

Amy thank you, have you had af disappear on you before?, hope your appointment comes through soon and can get the ball rolling for you!!

Rainy, sorry, I've never heard of Clomid being prescribed without assurities of a DH's sperm.

*the surities, not assurities!

dizzym I'd had two months of acupuncture plus I took vitamin c supplement as I read it helps boost progesterone, we always dtd a the day after ovulation so I think that combination worked...or it could have just been our lucky month how are you doing? Where abouts in your cycle are you?

*also dtd

lily huuuuuge congratulations to you!! That is a brilliant thing to see so pleased for you!!!!

beansprout double congratulations to you too!!

Pg tests are STILL showing positive this morning! So annoying as I'm out of ICs now so can't test tomorrow. I just want to know for sure when it's gone so that if I do get a bfp I'll know it's real.

Hope everyone has some nice plans for the weekend? Xx

Ooh it's snowing!

Thoughtfulbird sorry i should have made our situation more clearer , they have already taken two samples from DH, the second sample was better than the first, but its still slightly lower than it should be, he has been suffering with an underlying ongoing ear infection and they are taking that into consideration that it could make his count lower as he has been fighting an infection, if the third one he does comes back low then i will be put forward for ivf as that will be the best action to take

Sammy is there no way you could get next day delivery on ICs from Amazon,

Beansprout I might try the vitamin C as i need a boost in progesterone and it might also help my cold too!!!

There aren't any that qualify for Amazon prime.... And if I'm going to pay £7 for delivery then I might as well by a super drug test! Lol. Xx

Sammy I think places like home bargains etc do really cheap tests. I would try and get something otherwise if you do get a bfp then you're not going to believe it! Make sure that when you come to testing for real though you only use a frer as the cheapies are notoriously slow at picking it up.

sammy yeah you are totally right , as what lucie says try home bargains to see if you can have any luck X

Rainy, yes unfortunately I have experienced AFAIK disappear throughout most of my adult life, I've never had regular periods x

Amy I took a bit of a break so i am not familiar with what is happening with you, i presume the appointment you are waiting for is for the fertility experts?, how long have you been trying for?
