Ok. This spotting has been going on for 4 days with no sign of AF. I'm going to hop off the bus until things sort themselves out. I'll be back!

EdgarAllenPoo · 02/11/2009 22:06

hello ldies

am ttc#3, and have not a clue re: dates, as this cycle = 21 days, though normally 28

how do you know re: ov??

be patient, i'm sure that's a common newbie question.

FrenchLimeBlossom · 02/11/2009 22:19

Can i join this bus please?

FrenchLimeBlossom TTC1, Cycle 6 UCL 28 CD1

I've already had a caffeinated coffee and ordered a Clear Blue fertility monitor this am. Hubbie will think I'm mental, but then he doesn't believe I'm as old as I am (probably a compliment). Off for a long weekend in York this Friday and fully intend to eat lots of Unsuitable Foods!

nymphadora · 03/11/2009 09:56

Still lurking but someone asked about OPK sticks- Yes they do have to be a really strong line (sorry )

Mabh- we have just come back from York it was lovely - V good shopping , better get a bigger seat on the bus

bigmuther65 · 03/11/2009 10:56

Hi
Just wondering if i can join left my sats on friday noticed they are not on the list.New to this so don't know how to add them .ttc after 2mc this year and would like some support plus help others through there journey .Can i join please

mabh · 03/11/2009 11:15

nymph a bigger seat because I have eaten to many Unsuitable Foods (Betty's, anyone?) or because I have spent too much time at Fenwick's smellies department? I used to live there, and go back regularly for a shopping fix.

Hello big muther. Just copy and paste the existing stats onto your message, and add yourself. Support offered, support needed!

Hi all, just updating the list with me removed. Will jump back on when AF arrives properly and I can say I'm CD1. The odd spotting has stopped and AF has not yet turned up, but I expect she will.

PoppyIsApain · 03/11/2009 12:59

Dumb question alert, In the fertile week can you concieve or do you really only have a chance when ovulating? im abit confused now,a chart i did said i was fertile from monday to friday and due to ovulate saturday, does this sound about right? Also i did my stats abit wrong, im on CD 10
Thanks

mabh · 03/11/2009 14:28

Not dumb at all poppy I've been trying to explain it to brainy DH for weeks...

You can only actually conceive if there is an ovum waiting, ie. you've ovulated in the last few hours. The reason it's your fertile 'week' is that sperm can live for several days, so this week's sperm might fertilise Saturday's egg, if you see what I mean. So go to it girl .

PoppyIsApain · 03/11/2009 14:40

Thanks mabh

TeaFan · 03/11/2009 15:08

Hi all, is there a comfy seat at the back I can occupy?

TeaFan TTC#1 Cycle 7 UCL 29-32 CD1

Can't believe it is cycle 7 for us now, I know that isn't long in the scheme of things but I waited so long to be where I wan't to be in my career, on the property ladder, financially secure etc etc that I already feel like i've been waiting for ages DP is getting fed up too, we've bought those Wellman & Wellwoman supplements now to see if that will help. Am also going to go back to Clearblue OPKs this month and am considering buying preseed.

I hope you ladies don't mind me having a moan, i'm such a together lady in every other way but TTC has a way of driving you nuts! I cried about it for the first time this month and DP was a bit Can't fault him though, he is very supportive and I am lucky to have him.

EdgarAllenPoo · 03/11/2009 17:30

i'm on cycle day ....(counts on fingers) 3

LoujalouRocket · 03/11/2009 18:08

Just told DH he is on a new schedule - every night til I ovulate and looked horrified . Am on day 9 and think might ovulate on Thursday / Friday so he should be able to cope with that.

Welcome newbies. Nice to see you on here. Hope you have got enough cake and wine that is being passed round.

LoujalouRocket · 03/11/2009 18:13

Teafan I know what you mean about feeling down it can be downright depressing. I am trying Zestica as its better value for money than Preseed. Am hoping it was the fact that we were using far too much lube that has meant it has taken so long TTC. Last time it only took 3 goes so its v v v frustrating! Doesn't help I am a control freak!

Wish I was over 35 so could go to doctors sooner.

nymphadora · 03/11/2009 19:07

mabh I meant for the shopping but if u are eating cakes as well maybe u need a double one!

TeaFan · 03/11/2009 20:57

Thanks Loujalou, I seem to remember us commenting on the last bus we were both on cycle 6 I have had a good look through my TTC spreasheet (yes, I have a spreadsheet ) and it looks like the first couple of months we were out with dates anyway so i'm feeling a bit better ... Hope this is a lucky bus

RomanCandleJollster · 04/11/2009 07:58

Nice to see the bus filling up, though I guess it's always sad when it does (IYKWIM).

Wonder whether we should trade in for a DoubleDecker now, as seems to have had an impact on July? And we may need all that room for supplies and shopping.... (am off to Bluewater today with DS, probably might get 30 mins shopping if I'm lucky... SO like his father!)

Am about to start thinking about which days to speak huskily and suggest an early night... hard to say as MMC seems to have messed my cycle up a bit. Was hoping to get away with just the once it took for DS and the twice for my lost bean, but suspect I may need to get a bit busier than that... ...

Hope all fine on the bus (teafan love your name, I used to work in tea.... am a handsome shade of brown )

bigmuther65 · 04/11/2009 08:33

God i am going insane i am 6 dpo and just want to poas .Was convinced the last few days i was pg sore boobs weeing etcetc but that seems to have gone and think maybe was in my head .Maybe the weekend i could do my first test but would rather wait till af is late.Had a chat to dh last night think maybe he might hope that we have a few more months of ttc as he is enjoying all the shagging sorry tmi
Working out my dates i think if get pg this cycle i might have a july baby so let hopeing i can ring that bell and get of the bus a few stops early
GOOD LUCK we will all get are PFP this month

ToffeeMuser · 04/11/2009 09:30

I sympathise with the wanting to poas. My spotting has stopped but AF hasn't arrived. Boobs are kind of sore. Probably pmt. If no AF by the weekend I'm testing. Think I must be a 30 day cycle so I'd be late by then,

Am desperate to do a test, but know there is no point, as either way it will only show -tive this early! The tempation is hard!

I think I might give the HPT's to DP to 'hide' so that I cannot waste use them until the time is right.
