hello eveywoo77

eveywoo77 · 05/08/2009 13:53

hey everyone ive just jumped on the may bus xxx

ImmaterialGirl I know 39 isn't old. But he seems to think it is. Daft bugger.

Ladylou83 · 05/08/2009 15:41

Eveywoo , U managed to figure it out then? Was it laptop, or MN trouble? Stats?

Have to say my MIL is pretty much a legend, but possibly being a "bit" pushy when it comes to TTC, bless her. Think it might be a good thing she lives in Spain, otherwise she would always be on about it, more so than now. Dont get me wrong, I REALLY want to be preggers, DH and I are as ready as I think we can be, and the timing seems right, but am going to do things at our speed and not MIL (and sometimes SIL) speed.

sweetkitty · 05/08/2009 16:44

hi everyone CD5 here boring limbo land trying not to think too much about it really, AF eased off thankfully. There's quite a few of us having a hard time from the evil witch this month.

Ladylou - love the wedding present, talk about dropping a hint lol

My MIL (she passed away 3 weeks agao v ) a devout RC, DP and I have never married, variety of reasons we just haven't got round to it) anyway I think she just gave up on us in the end and she adored all the DDs especially DD3, one of the hardest things is that she won't be around to see them grow up now . One of the worries we had about having 4 was financial and a lot of those worries have been eased now die to her passing and it made us realise life is too short and we should go for another baby.

Tobago - I would think you are fine CM wise if you are TTC no3, I don't drink enough either am trying to drink more water during the day as I think it's part of the reason I am so knackered too

eveywoo - hello and welcome to the thread

fotheringhay · 05/08/2009 16:48

Hi everyone, I'm brand new here. Can I get on the May bus too? I'm on my second month TTC, very excited and a little bit impatient.
Here's my attempt at the acronyms:
fotheringhay TTC#1 Cycle 2 UCL 28? CD6
Best of luck to all on the bus!

Ladylou83 · 05/08/2009 16:58

Welcome Fotheringhay

Im also on 2nd month 'official' TTC, and defo agree, its so exciting. Last cycle during the 2WW I found it very hard to not be impatient. I ended up testing just for the sake of testing, knowing full well that it would be too soon...

I shall add u to the growing list

Hello again, I'm on the April bus but is there any chance I can jump onto the May bus too?? I think my cycle has placed me in a situation where I could end up in either month! April bus is getting a bit quiet now, lots of graduates or people moved to May, and I was a bit afraid of being left sat there all by myself!

Latest stats...
Spirael TTC#1 Cycle 1 UCL27.5 CD15

I'm a bit confused on the ovulation front currently, if anyone can offer me any advice? I've been temp checking very carefully each morning... Had two slightly higher readings on Saturday and Sunday, then a dip for Monday, then back up on Tuesday and today. Can anyone advise what that's likely to mean? Maybe just a dodgy reading on the Monday, or is a dip normal?

Only other unusual thing I've had is discomfort in my lower back since about lunchtime today. I don't usually get back ache of any kind, but I'm not sure if maybe I just slept tied up in a knot last night, or some equally non-TTC related reason!!

PistachioLemon · 05/08/2009 17:26

Can I join the bus please?

Summer your dh is not too old. Good luck working on him in the next few months...he may surprise you

Spirael I've never temped so no advice but somebody else will hopefully be along soon to answer your questions...however, if you're about half-way through your cycle, then you could well be ovulating? I'd just get bd to cover all bases

Evening all,

Just done my second OPK of the day...quite excited as luchtimes OPK had a feint line (my 1st) and even though I know it has to match or be darker than the test line it was quite exciting. Results in 5-10 Mins.

Welcome all the new passengers, wow this bus is busy now!

Spirael This is my 1st moth temping too...I was quite stable until this morning and it shot up...OPKs not reading anything yet and I'm not due to ovulate until Friday, so will let you know how it goes.

tobago04 · 05/08/2009 18:58

Wow what a busy bus!
Welcome to everyone thats new

SnowBunny1 · 05/08/2009 19:27

Crikey, go off line for a couple of hours and so much happens.

Hope everyone is having a good day and welcome to the newcomers (I recognise a few names from April as have been going between the 2)

Very frustrating here today, pains have stopped and no ttc symptoms.I guess having my mirena removed may be buggering up the system and I'll need to wait a few cycles to get back to normal.

lisa1976 are you going to test soon, fingers crossed for you

eveywoo77 · 05/08/2009 19:36

Im gonna join this may bus and hold on tight xxxxxxx

Ladylou83 · 05/08/2009 19:40

Eveywoo do u want to add ur stats to the list?

Fingers crossed it is a lucky bus for everyone.

Hiya everyone, I'm just hopping on from the April bus.
TTC #2,Cycle 6 UCL 30ish, CD5.

Got all my fingers and toes crossed that we have a lucky bus like the April one.

eveywoo77 · 05/08/2009 19:58

Hi everyone this journey just got a whole lot better just been reading some threads and you are all mad so glad to meet all you like minded people. xxxx

Ladylou83 · 05/08/2009 20:04

Glad u like the bus, it gets a bit bumpy at times, but we all ride them, and come out on top smiling, supporting, listening, laughing and joking...

PistachioLemon · 05/08/2009 20:43

Thanks for the warm welcome Nancy.

Spirael I've been temping on and off for a few months now and often get a temperature dip just before ovulation. Not everyone gets them, and even if you do you may not get them every month but if you do it's a good indicator of when to do the deed. Have you read Taking Charge of your Fertility by Toni Wechsler? It goes into quite a lot of detail and is really helpful - definitely worth getting from the library or buying if you're temping and want to know more about how it all works.

Any luck with your second OPK Sky?

Hello to everyone else [waves].

sky just wait until you have a collection of used OPKs....is it a safe bet to say that you will probably line them up to confirm the darkening of the results line??
