Seeing as we're a bit cramped, have no room for shopping and have a fair way to go yet i've hired us a double decker, hope no-one minds. Good news is there is a hot chocolate machine and a luxury loo for lots of POAS!

Yeah the mouse !!!!

MonstrousMuser · 01/11/2009 12:24

Hi everyone. Just popping in to see how you're all doing. I am still waiting for AF to arrive. Have only had v light spotting in the mornings since Thursday. All very odd.

jumblequeen · 01/11/2009 12:37

MonstrousMuser - not bad today, despite the rain (if you're in London anyway). Haven't had any reason to symptom spot - which is probably a good thing - but secretly hoping that this cycle is the one... Will be testing in the next 10 days... (gulp)

mousemole · 01/11/2009 13:03

thanks for your lovely words.
Also wanted to share - I bought a big pack of HPT's off amazon too ( they are the ones that have given me the blue lines). They are the same sensitivity as Clear Blue and First Response early tests ( 10 u ). Anyway, I got a big container of about 25 of them for just a few quid. So I can P on as many S's as I want !! Much much better than shelling out ridiculous amounts at Boots each month !

Hi All
Loving the new bus!!!
Congrats mouse keeping my fingers crossed for you!! I made the mistake of testing yesterday with a cheapo hpt got a bfn I was only on CD 22 so think i may of tested early at least i'm hoping anyway.

Shmoo75 · 01/11/2009 14:31

Mouse Congrats hun i am but also at your news. Another Grad!!!(About time we had another one!)

EPO = Evening Primrose Oil

I have sent DH to bed for a rest as, he said he felt abit poo! I need him firing on all cylinders for the next 4 nights at least seeing as, I got my 1st High today!!!!

shelleee · 01/11/2009 15:12

hi all just to say AF arrived today so im hopping off at this stop and what a shame as i love the double decker , congrats mousemole and good luck everyone xxx

CurlyCasper · 01/11/2009 15:20

Congrats Mousemole! umbongo All sounds normal to me. Your +ve OPK (LH surge) is a signal for egg release in the following 24-48 hours. Then your temperature should go up after ovulation - so of you keep having sex at least until you get the BBT spike, you'll be in with a chance! Hope that makes you feel a bit less and a bit more

Temp still up here, so the "normal" cycle I've been yearning for seems to be continuing . And if ovulation detection is correct, I'm finally on track for a 28-day cycle! We'll see come November 11... (such a long time to wait!)

More BFPs please!

Shmoo75 · 01/11/2009 16:53

Umbongo Looks like we will OV at about the same time(maybe a couple of days apart) I am hoping to get my 1st Peak on Tuesday. Then test on 16/11
Shelleee Sorry AF caught you. Fingers crossed the August Bus is the last one you will need to catch.

heffieanna · 01/11/2009 16:54

I'm be testing around the same time jumblequeen About the 8th of Nov......

Shmoo75 · 01/11/2009 16:56

Oh good luck with testing heffiieanna it is only 7 sleeps til you test. Fingers crossed for you

Pinkwine · 01/11/2009 17:45

Hi all,
Teafan I am loving the new bus and thanks so much for saving me a seat.
Nymph belated congratulations on your marriage and thanks for asking after me, I am still here and still being very patient ! I am guessing that AF didn't arrive last month for some bizarre reason and am gonna test again on Tuesday as Monday would've been due date for AF this cycle!!
Does that make any sense???

jumblequeen · 01/11/2009 17:55

Have had a serious baby head today... I'm at work but keep dashing back to the computer to get a mumsnet fix! Really hoping this is my time. Here's to testing in a week or so and seeing two blue lines!

EmNotPGYet · 01/11/2009 18:18

Congrats mousemole - let's hope your BFP is the first of many on this new thread!

Bad luck shelley.

TeaFan · 01/11/2009 18:59

This new bus must be lucky, our first BFP already! Let's hope it's the first of many

i am trying to distract myself from testing early (day 24, normal cycle 28). ordered some pregnancy tests with my sainsbury shop and saw it is one of those dreadful digital ones that says - "not pregnant" - when BFN. I almost would rather wait for AF to arrive than see those horrible words! -- am thinking of writing to manufacturers to say can they replace it with "keep trying".....
teafan thanks for saving me a seat in the double decker!

clumsyspookybroomstick · 01/11/2009 20:02

good job on the double decker teafan, it was getting a bit cramped here.

Well I am completely and utterly symptomless not a single little twinge, nothing all all, nada, rien ....boohoohooo

chocolate anyone?

heffieanna · 01/11/2009 20:24

Only 7 sleeps indeed shmoo when you put it like that!!!

nymphadora · 01/11/2009 20:30

Well good luck pinkwine hoping its a very shy baby!

Mmmcoffee · 01/11/2009 23:40

Whoo I go away for the weekend and the bus was empty but then I saw the nice shiny new one - who put in the buffet bar with all the choccy cake?

Back on board! A great weekend away too, apart from the yukky rain and wind.

Mmmcoffee · 01/11/2009 23:41

Oh mouse CONGRATS

Looks like the new bus is a good sign...

Pinkwine · 02/11/2009 06:58

Teafan I could kiss you and this new lucky bus!!
I just got a BFP

Decided couldn't wait till 2moro, so Poas this morning and there it was!!! I was half asleep thinking here we go another BFN, but I am now very wide awake!!

Page62 · 02/11/2009 07:35

oh mouse and pinkwine, congratulations!!! very pleased for you both - please sprinkle babydust this way!

Sherida · 02/11/2009 07:59

Congratulations Mouse and Pink! Throw some of that luck our way! My cycle has done it's usual "I'll Do My Own Thing" and it's my fertile week so hubby is a very happy man at the moment as I'm insisting on dancing every night.
Fingers crossed for a surge of PFPs.

mousemole · 02/11/2009 09:07

congrats pinkwine !!!
my fint blue line is darker today and Dh has instructed me to buy a digital test so he can see the words as proof- he doesn't seem to believe the lines !
I still have no symptoms except larger nipples ( sorry if TMI) ! Sending you all babydust - I think this is quite a lucky bus !
