Well I am dusting down the drivers seat and kick starting the April bus for those the BFP fairy missed on the lucky Mad March bus. Fingers crossed the destination for this one is 'Baby Central'.

Ohh sorry to hear bfn wardy but AF hasn't arrived so you're still in with a chance. I've heard lots of stories on here of ladies that have had AF days late and still been bfn then suddenly a BFP. Fx still for you xxx

TobyLerone · 29/03/2013 07:27

Thanks, choc :)

TobyLerone TTC#3, cycle 5, BFP due 25th April

We've decided to do this properly now, rather than just using an app and guesswork, as time is not on our side (we've given it a year). Yesterday I ordered some OPKs and bought Sainsbury's out of vitamins.

chocoloulou33 · 29/03/2013 07:08

pixie hope ur feeling better 2day hun. I'm always upset first day of af, takes me a while to get over it & start feeling positive again.
delia when is af/bfp due? Mine is sunday? Also slightly crampy this morning. Was gonna test 2moro morning but rly don't know if I can face seeing another bfn. I spose it softens the blow of af arriving. I dunno will see how I feel in morning. Anyone else testing? Need a bfp on this bus! X

deliasmithy · 28/03/2013 23:54

I have some cheese and some port for everyone.

I think I'm getting af signs, not even April yet!

Pixie001 · 28/03/2013 22:20

Thanks choc, i will be..just in bed having little cry and feeling sorry for myself first. Don't want dh to know how disappointed I am, he feels the pressure to perform as it is. ttc sucks.

TobyLerone · 28/03/2013 21:58

Oooooh, I have a baking cupboard. I'll fit right in here!

MrsAVB · 28/03/2013 21:45

Evening all! Pistachio I definitely need a baking cupboard! I just made two batches of cookies and a banana bread. Can I count cake craving as a symptom?
Xxx

chocoloulou33 · 28/03/2013 21:39

(((Hugs))) pixie hope your ok hun xx

TobyLerone · 28/03/2013 21:23

Thanks, Pixie :)

Pixie001 · 28/03/2013 20:47

Thanks guys

TobyLerone · 28/03/2013 20:31

Any room for another refugee from the March bus?

lisbapalea · 28/03/2013 20:22

Sorry to hear that pixie but you're more than welcome and in good company here!

Just opened a bottle of sauv blanc - fancy some?

gillywillywoo · 28/03/2013 20:21

Welcome aboard pixie! I only have chocolate!!! Smile

Pixie001 · 28/03/2013 20:19

Crappy crap crap.
Hello, me again. joining the next bus please if that ok. Sad
Anyone got any Wine?

lisbapalea · 28/03/2013 20:13

CM question...!

Having thought I might have missed the boat I've just discovered I have EWCM after all! Now does that mean I currently am ovulating and therefore need swimmers in there asap, or does it mean I am about to ovulate and have a few days to DTD before egg is released?

PistachioTruffle · 28/03/2013 19:20

Marie, it isn't as fancy as it sounds, I promise! It's just the cupboard where I keep the baking supplies, so it's normally full of mostly empty bags of flour and stray cupcake cases!
DH has just phoned to say we're going out for dinner and drinks with some friends, so my cleaning fest will have to wait til tomorrow Shock. It's just as well really, cleaning the outsides of windows is probably an activity best performed in daylight Wink
Catch up with you tomorrow ladies!

marie456 · 28/03/2013 19:08

pistachio you have a baking cupboard?! That sounds amazing!

wardy I'm so with you on the feeling down. At the minute it feels like everyone is pg but me!! I poas as soon as I got home today even though I knew it would be bfn! I'm only 8/9 dpo, though AF due sunday/monday due to short luteal phase. I also like you have not dtd since fertile week (or at least what I think is fertile week). Think ovulated on day 16 and dtd days 12,13,14,15,16 and 17. Sad

Have no symptoms either other than feeling a bit bloated but after a visit to the loo (tmi!!!!!) that's now gone!

PistachioTruffle · 28/03/2013 18:49

Wine and hugs for those feeling blue, I love the excuse to scoff easter goodies Mrs!

How early do we think the nesting instinct could kick in? I've been cleaning the house like a woman possessed today! Went in to tidy the baking cupboard as DH has been nagging for ages and I've been putting it off, and while in there had the sudden urge to scrub the place, including places I normally forget exist, such as underneath the wall mounted cabinets Grin I've also done two loads of washing, the bathroom, cleaned the carpet in our room, am in the midst of cleaning the living room and looking forward to tackling the spare room and getting rid of some junk! The poor cat had better not sit still for too long or it will be polished and put away haha!
(I am joking of course, I don't really think its a symptom!)

WanabeMum · 28/03/2013 17:46

Hey everyone, been busy so just catching up!
Sorry to hear you're feeling blue wardy Sad I got completely obsessed the first time around and I'm sure this hindered rather than helped the process, but I too am the obsessive type so I feel your pain! Promised myself I wouldn't obsess this time but here I am symptom spotting and dragging myself away from the pregnancy tests! Blush
It will happen for you, your body has already shown you that you can conceive and my friend went on to have a healthy baby girl shortly after an mc. Chin up honey Smile
Nice to see lots of other symptom spotters here too. Liking the idea of hot cross buns and Easter eggs MrsAVB!!!

Wardy17 · 28/03/2013 17:22

Thanks MrsA I wish I had the same attitude as you, I'm a bit more obsessive. Most of the time I'm fine it's just the 2ww makes me crazy!!!

Zeuxippe · 28/03/2013 17:06

Just to say happy bank holiday to one and all! And roll on April with lots of lovely BFPs xx

MrsAVB · 28/03/2013 17:00

Afternoon all! 4 day weekend whoop whoop!
Wardy sending hugs... I miscarried in June after conceiving first cycle, we've been trying again since September and do worry a lot about it taking a while. But I'm also of the "what will be, will be" school of thought and know that fundamentally I will be ok life will go on and be full of both ups and downs whatever the stork does or doesn't bring.
Besides... It's Easter egg time and possibly being pg means we are all allowed to eat lots of eggs and hot cross buns on the bus.
Xxxx

deliasmithy · 28/03/2013 15:40

Every time I feel slightly different from the usual AF symptoms I inflate the importance of it. And then experience crushing disappointment.

Despite this, I havent stopped and am currently convinced tummy ache is the new bfp predictor.
