********** JULY BUS **********

[aideesmum]

Hi all,

I've just checked and if it happens this time I'd actually be due early July. Please feel free to join me on this bus:

aideesmum TTC#2 UCL 30-34 CD2

hello NorkyStrokesMice

we're both 7dpo, so to exercise self control, i will "wait" for you to come back from your weekend before testing!

So, AF appears not to be arriving just yet. Just a little bit of pinky blood this morning and nothing since. I'd feel more optimistic if I didn't quite often get a false start!

POAS this morning because I couldn't not, BFN. Am never doing a CBD again, it's horrific when it comes up with a straight Not Pregnant! Traditional line ones for me from now on. Anyway, going to wait to see if AF arrives properly and not testing until I'm officially late.

Ooh, time to start partying with DH! Funny how he goes pale when he sees me checking the calendar with that glint in my eye...

Cor, this bus is chocka! We had better get some more graduates soon otherwise we'll be sitting on laps!

2ww - It's the pits! I won't test, but I hate the wait! [Very cross emoticon!]

Muser I only ever use CBD after I have got a full on BFP on an IC as, seeing it in black and white NOT PREGNANT isn't very nice it is heartbreaking actually and, they are far too expensive to waste

Got another Low on my CBFM today. Oh well will start jumping DH's bones tonight anyway can't hurt can it?

hello
popped back on to see progress....muser and shmoo, I used CBD for the first time this month as was on offer at T**co.... agree never again, HORRIBLE BORRIBLE HORRIBLE!!!

Good luck with babymaking, waiting and testing. Will pop back for update!
Tarra.

AF is definitely here so I'm hopping off the July bus. Hope not to see any of you on the August bus! Lots of July babies!

Muser Hun sorry she got you too. Hope the August Buss is the last one you will need to catch

romancandlejollster trend-setting, I see! At what point do you become santajollster ?

I'm killing time now until AF comes/ I can test. For some reason my mood drops at this stage, which is bizarre considering it could be good news, isn't it?

If AF does arrive, I think I'm off to get that CBFM.

oh mabh you rumbled me! Was thinking of HoHoHoJollster though ....

Jollster I like that
mbah I know what you mean. We spend all time from start of AF wishing for OV to arrive so we can DTD and have the best chance possible, then from OV to AF/Test day wishing it wouold hurry up or, not want it to arrive at all depending on our mood on the day we are asked.

lucybrad no symptoms here either But the link that mabh posted yesterday was excellent and helped me to realise that early BFPs are unusual and early symptoms even more rare.. But on the upside our odds have to be quite good given the fact that we're packed to the rafters and have hardly and graduates...
(Tea hands out an assortment of chocolate and ice creams to everyone on the 2ww)

Sorry she got you muser, have fun on the August bus and hope I don't see you there - meant in the nicest way of course!

Today's very complex stats - think I got everything [fingers crossed emoticon]

I have just counted and there are 50! of us left on the bus! Surely there should be at least another 10 of us to graduate?

If you have to test however many days past ovulation, how do you know exactly which day you ovulated? I get ovulation pains, but they can last up to 3days, so do you go from the first day. the middle day or the last?

Shmoo75 - there certainly should be! AF is due on the 9th for me... it's a waiting game until then (and afterwards if I can muster the willpower).

SpookyAlice - I don't know but would like to find out... anyone?

Alice I would say the last day, I don't get OV pains but go on EWCM. Apparently EWCM dries up very quickly once you have ovulated

spookyteafan Shmoo I'm wondering if some people at the front of the bus have gone straight onto the antenatal threads and not told us ?

spookyteafan it was good, that thread, wasn't it. I didn't realise that the rates for early bfps were so low. I was especially surprised that according to the stats, lots of people don't even get a bfp until days after their AF is due, never mind before!

I am feeling vaguely naggy in the midriff department and have been eating complete cr6p... cheese pastry, crisps and caramel shortbread. I think I may be trying to induce sickness, so that I convince myself I have a symptom...

spookyalice Aha! Since I came off the pill three months ago I have got pretty significant aches mid-month that can last days - I thought I was the only one! Don't know the answer to your question, though... soz.

Can I be person on bus number 51?

heffieanna TTC#1 Cycle6 UCL32-34 CD21.

OV'ed around CD 19/20.......

Feel very very weepy today

Hello heffie are you feeling weepy generally, or is there something in particular?

Generally - TTC getting me down and only been about 7 months. Generally feeling down. Have had depression in past but not on ADs now. Just feel down today and not good enough for anyone. Been crying bad most of the day [sad sad}

Welcome heffieanna This TTC lark gets all of us down but hopefully being on the bus with everyone else going through similar will help. I am on cycle 6 and feel like i'm starting to go insane at the same time as being convinced it might never happen...c

Mabh I think you might be right about some of the people at the front I know that pinkwine is still in the running but the others have gone a bit quiet

I think I ate so much cr@p last weekend that I gave myself constipation and that's what all the bloating and cramping was about earlier this week... am okay now and completely symptomless - apart from random stabbing pain in right breast

AF is officially due Tuesday and desperately trying not to test (Tea sits wondering if she can get away with a sneaky POAS without letting on to the rest of the bus...)

Hi everyone. After a lot of BD with DH (hopefully we have done enough) I am about to enter the 2 WW madness....for some reason I don't feel very hopeful. I do not feel any different just yet and it is ages before I can POAS. To make matters worse, DH seems to be caught by the madness too as yesterday he asked me when I could POAS...Felt like saying "we have only just finished the deed even with your supesperm it won't show anything today". I am sure DH thinks he has infaillible sperm (but then don't all mem).

Apologies if tmi

Have just realised this bus has now had 924 posts and might be on the way to a breakdown Do we have RAC membership???!!!

We might need a replacement hire bus to get us to the end of the road
