How many ttc threads am I allowed on?! (also, what qualifies you for the December bus? What are the rules? )

MouseLove · 25/11/2016 23:16

Black you be on as many as you like. I'm on 2 for first babies, another for coming off the pill and this bus. I'm hoping to get a BFP in December so that's why I'm on this bus. X

Gingerchoc14 · 25/11/2016 23:18

Ha ha Blackcherries I am feeling rather promiscuous too. I think there are a few on here and the November bus. I guess it's just anyone hoping for a bfp in time for Xmas.

blackcherries · 25/11/2016 23:27

That's me then! Had all these mental deadlines - wanted a 2.2 year age gap, then wanted to be 3 months gone by work Xmas party so I could tell people, now I just want a BFP I dontcarewhenwhereorhow

Gingerchoc14 · 25/11/2016 23:41

That is so the case with me too!! Not the age-gap but the planning around/imagining being pregnant by key events and then woefully seeing each deadline slip by. I'm sure the stress of not meeting my ridiculous deadlines has only contributed to not getting pregnant. I too now am Idontcarewherewhenorhow! Persuading myself it's all good preparation for being pregnant when I suspect no control over anything is the norm

pebble82 · 25/11/2016 23:56

ginger I have one DD and you are absolutely right. The ttc bit is just the beginning.

I too watch "deadlines" go by. Wish I hadn't been on the stupid pill as the waiting game for AF went on so long I've got myself all worked up over ttc now. It was meant to be a laid back approach this time!

Think my earlier post was premature. We DTD earlier and now I'm pondering if it's not too late this month after all. Had a small amount of gloopy EWCM on Wednesday (CD15). I had a stomach bug though so hardly in the mood for ttc. Nothing since that's been obvious but I've not been actively checking. Guess I play the tentative waiting game. Consider me running alongside the bus after jumping off at the wrong stop.

MrsCummings · 26/11/2016 06:26

Couldn't hold out from testing - BFN grrrr

Clinging to AF not being due until Thursday so will try again in a couple of days

binkybunny · 26/11/2016 07:59

Tinkerbell2319 · 26/11/2016 08:12

Blinkybunny im due on the 5th as well ... and yes it's a bit early :P ill hang in there with you haha

Tinkerbell2319 · 26/11/2016 08:13

*binky sorry! Blush

binkybunny · 26/11/2016 08:29

I resisted tinkerbell was soooo tempted with fmu but held out.

I have sharp cramps in lower abdomen, retched a few times at work and now off coffee but trying not to get my hopes up as it might just be pre AF symptoms but if wasn't with DD!

Hi blackcherries from another thread Smile I'm on a couple but this seems most active.

Sorry for AF arriving for a few Cake Wine Chocolate

ginger no control over my 2 year old especially nap/ poo nappies which always happen at the wrong times Grin

binkybunny · 26/11/2016 08:30

Ha ha maybe I should name change to blinks Grin

minime2016 · 26/11/2016 08:45

Mrs Cummings I feel your pain! I'm due on Monday and tested with a frer but bfn as well. I've had such sore boobs that I never usually get as a pms symptom. Weepy as hell and hungry hungry hungry! Maybe pms symptoms change as you get older??

MrsCummings · 26/11/2016 08:56

minime I'm the same! If it's not nailed down it's going in my gob!

The boobs aren't epically sore but I know they are there... if you know what I mean?

I used the boots one. I have FRER so may try again Tuesday or may just wait it out...

I'm very crampy and a bit emosh... watched Jem this morning as sod all on at 5am and had a weep... bloody awful film, sitting through that shite might have made me boohoo anyway Wink

MouseLove · 26/11/2016 10:43

Put the sticks down ladies!!!! Wait until you've missed AF and save yourself the heartache!! Now.... go stand in the corner and think about what you've done!! Wink

DrRBannerx · 26/11/2016 11:14

I already feel like I'm out this month. Feels like AF is going to show a week early, this is only my second cycle since MC so it could easily be so.
I've got some sort of sickness bug today, being sick and the like.
Oh well, off to school fair, as I promised DD! Have a great Saturday girls

Ohb0llocks · 26/11/2016 12:06

I got an evap line yesterday. I'm peeing like a trooper and holding in voms at the same time every day. DP asked if I wanted a pasta pot the other night I was almost sick on his head.

MrsG280516 · 26/11/2016 14:34

Sounds positive ohbollocks! Obviously the puking is awful but I hope you get your BFP soon! A lot of BFPs start off as an evaporation line Smile

Tinkerbell2319 · 26/11/2016 15:37

Think I got a +ive OPK today (still doing them out of interest) on CD 21 ConfusedConfusedConfused how peculiar

MrsG280516 · 26/11/2016 17:48

Eeek that's exciting ohbollocks!! I don't want to give you any false hope but I'd be doing a FRER in the morning if I were you!

Ohb0llocks · 26/11/2016 18:55

I've told DP to get more tests on his way home. My boobs are killing and if the past few days are anything to go by I should
Start feeling sick anytime now Envy

Hope it's not all in my head!

FlaminFlamingo99 · 26/11/2016 20:09

Sounds promising OhBollocks I really hope it's your turn for a BFP!
My symptoms have all gone now and AF due around Tues so don't think it's my month BUT I know it's now over till the witch appears so I wait with bated breath! Smile

mrsbarnettsbaby · 26/11/2016 20:19

AF arrived a week early. I hope it's not a sign of peri menopause. Fingers crossed for everyone else.

Ohb0llocks · 26/11/2016 20:21

Mrs Flowers sorry for AF!
