Bring on the October BFP's

At the risk of jinxing myself by starting this thread I'm hoping it's actually quite therapeutic to let go of September. The next few weeks are all about bd'ing and for those in the same boat, we can start looking forward to an October full of BFPs.

After a 41 day cycle I'm back to CD1, anyone else care to join me?

Well done D-girl! I'm letting go of September too. I'm counting today as CD1 as yesterday was only spotting.

How are you feeling DG?

Hooray, I am not alone!
Feeling a bit better Pixie, I knew CD1 would be difficult...but I think the long wait made it worse (and I think you know what I mean). Lets hope we've got our long cycles out the way now.
Hi Lulu - another number oner .

Ovulation tests ordered! I'm getting ready to get back in the game for this month!

Piggley · 08/09/2007 19:14

Me again! To participate fully I would love to understand your abbreviations.

ttc - trying to conceive
AF - period? but what does AF stand for?
MMC - ?
Cycle - are you all on IVF?

Why have you moved into october - is this when you are now going to conceive? Thank you.

Piggley · 08/09/2007 19:15

Sorry forgot to ask about CD1. P x

Piggley · 08/09/2007 19:47

Sorry just discovered acroynm list! I'll piss off now.

ps doesn't mention CD so i'll stagger a guess at conception date or mmc which i don't want to assume about.

pixie04 · 08/09/2007 23:34

Hi Piggley sorry the threads a bit quiet we haven't got a whole lot of people yet as many are on the September thread.

CD is cycle day, CD1 being the first day of your period arriving.

AF is auntie flow/period

MMC not entirley sure I know MC is miscarriage.

I'm not on IVF, just trying naturally at the mo.

Digitalgirl and I are on here because both of our last cycle's were really long DG's was 41 days and mine was whopping 71 days so neither of us will be able to test until October. Not that that will stop me of course I'm quiet tempted to test even though I've just had AF coz you never know. I presume Lulu's in a similar position.

So what's going on with you how long you been trying?

meandmy · 09/09/2007 01:28

would love to join in the hunt for a bfp in october but as we are away when i ov in sept no chance (in caravan with my mom 4 sisters my nece and dd in our bed )
hoping bfp's for everyone else

TwilightSurfer · 09/09/2007 01:54

Hi All. Nice to see familar nicknames. After a week of feeling like crap, I've picked myself up and see no reason why I can't at least add myself to the October list. Who knows...I might get lucky. Like the lottery...you can't win if you don't play.

Bucky2007 · 09/09/2007 08:37

Hi (Bucky waves to Twilight), glad to see you around again. I'm just lurking here at moment. AF due around the 25th September, if she doesn't arrive and if I wait a week to test I could kind of be an October BFP. But I won't go on the list officially if that's OK. Don't want to tempt fate. I need all the luck I can get.

pixie04 · 09/09/2007 09:31

Hello bucky your welcome over here anytime whether you on the list or not, I've got everything crossed for your September BFP.

(pixie waves to Twilightsurfer)your right if your not in it you can't win it, there's not harm in having a go and you might get lucky, (I do acctually play the lottery hmmm money...) you never know it could be your month. I don't know about you though but I'm doing my best to keep this cycle as stress and pressure free as possible. Maybe buying ovulation tests wasn't the best first step

Hi meandmy what's your stats and I'll add you onto the board.

pixie04 · 09/09/2007 09:34

Opps I'm acctually CD 5 today (thank god the september board is up to date) Should I come off the September board? I quiet like popping over there and seeing how everones doing.

Hi everyone. Welcome newbies and hello to familiar names- hello Bucky and Twilight! Twilight- I know what you mean about feeling down. I have been so down for the past few days, but trying to pick myself up. Its been such a roller coaster and I'm tired of all the raised then dashed hopes.

CD is Cycle day and MMC is missed miscarriage. This is when there are no signs of miscarriage, but the baby has died (when I went to my first scan at 13 weeks I found the baby had died- no heartbeat- for me the baby had died very recently).

I'm off for holidays soon, so I will not be logging on for awhile, but good luck to all. Here's hoping for a brighter Oct!

pixie04 · 09/09/2007 10:51

good luck lulu have a great holiday

Better add myself too sorry to see the familiar names, I never know when you cross over onto another months thread, I feel like I should stay on September for a bit but I won't be doing a test until October so should be here.

Is October a July baby then?

TheMuppetMuggle · 09/09/2007 11:13

SK - How are you today??

And it will be a July baby which will be nice as Darcie is a March baby.

Ok with a big deep breath I am doing this. A bit frightened of my AF this month tbh. I may be waiting for the Nov BFP thread if I still hurt. I'm glad not to be the only #1 on here.

TwilightSurfer · 09/09/2007 14:58

Wow! More familiar faces!! Glad to be amongst friends but sorry it's not the thread we'd like to be on.

My mojo meter is starting to go up. This may lead to frisky behavior later. DH goes out of town AGAIN tomorrow for two days. Might be a bit early but practice is important.

SK & TMM You'll have June babies: Early September AF + Early October BFP (considering 30CDs) = JUNE BAMBINO. Please somebody check my math here .

TheMuppetMuggle · 09/09/2007 15:00

TS - I go 25 CDs so will that still be June baby??

pixie04 · 09/09/2007 15:06

I just had a look on the bbc parenting website at the pregnancy calculator If I had a 28 day cycle the first day of my AF was 5th Sept I would be due 11th June. Of course my last cycle was 71 days but it won't let me put that in. So if we conceive this month were looking at the middle of june early july dependant on our cycles.

TheMuppetMuggle · 09/09/2007 17:09

Pixie - on the BBC parenting website i've imputted details in the calender if it works this month i'll be due 9th June 2008 - 9th June being my sisters birthday

sweetkitty · 09/09/2007 17:36

June would be good, conceived DD1 in November and she was due early August but arrived July.

Had originally planned a March baby thought I was all smart getting one but there you go don't care when I have on now.

TheMuppetMuggle · 09/09/2007 18:38

I'd like a summer baby, i already have a spring baby - maybe i'll be able to do all the seasons i think i may get DP to agree to that!!!
