So I couldn't find a May thread, so I thought I'd start one for all of us who have dropped off the April thread.

Aunty arrived this morning so I 've just started cycle 4. TTC #2. Just had a long cycle so if this is the same length my most fertile time will be over Easter weekend.

So I might go all pagan and invoke some Spring fertility goddess. Or something. Or piss on some sticks.

?? Good luck, Spring Goddesses.

Thank you English, you've been a great help with all the temping info for me Smile

EnglishGirlAbroad · 29/04/2014 09:11

Temping will only tell you if and when you have ovulated Chandlers. Even a positive opk or peak cbfm reading doesn't guarantee ovulation. After ovulation your temp stays up until af shows, when it'll dip back down. If you are pg it should stay up.

gennibugs · 29/04/2014 09:09

Fingers crossed Linda -sounds promising!!

ChandlersFarang · 29/04/2014 09:04

Temping fans... Is there a case for temping as well as using OPKs/a CBFM? Would it add anything or tell you anything you wouldn't know otherwise?

Funny old game this one isn't it - yesterday I convinced myself I was preg and had loads of symptoms, yet today have explained them all on other things and decided i'm definitely not! Confused

EnglishGirlAbroad · 29/04/2014 08:55

I got a line the day after what I assume was an implantation dip When i got my bfp in Dec. Fx for you!!!

lindamagoo · 29/04/2014 08:46

If it was implantation I wouldn't get a line yet though would I English? I had my previous bfp's at 10 dpo though but I know that means nothing. Och I'm not gona stress about it, today I have a wee line and tomorrow I might not Smile

EnglishGirlAbroad · 29/04/2014 08:39

Looking back at you chart Linda, you could well have ov'd at cd13 and the dip was what is called a fall back rise. That would have put your dip yesterday at 10dpo which is perfect implantation time!

NewlymrsB · 29/04/2014 08:33

I hope these BFP are contagious lol!!

ChandlersFarang · 29/04/2014 08:29

Fancy & Linda!!! Yeeeeeaaaahhhh!!! Loving the success rates this month, I hope they are catching!! Envy

Once you're ready & sure we'll all be wanting those stats of course... Grin

lindamagoo · 29/04/2014 08:28

I've tested the past 2 days and never saw anything but in the past I've saw a little line that was false so no hopes up just yet

hanflan · 29/04/2014 08:17

Ahhhh congrats Fancy and Fx for you Linda! It's getting all exciting round here haha.
This weekend's shagathon has left me with the UTI from hell. Ughhhh. Also not actually sure when I ovulated as still had bad ov pains and lots of ewcm yesterday?! Maybe I'll take it as yesterday to be safe. Have dtd every day for the last week so I think we covered all bases!

spinningirl10 · 29/04/2014 08:13

Maybe all the cm was a symptom! Will be keeping everything crossed for you Linda, I've never had a hint of a second line on an ic!

lindamagoo · 29/04/2014 08:10

I'm not going with a positive yet but you never know Smile Not exactly sure how many dpo I am as I got a + opk on cd11 then ewcm (that's never went away) what I thought was ov pains on cd13 and I'm now cd24. My bbt chart looked like I ov'd later though which means it would be too soon for a BFP. So will wait and see what the next couple of tests are like before I go all hyper and post stats, lol

MrsExtraOrdinary · 29/04/2014 08:09

Well fancy that! Grin what great news Thanks

Linda keeping it all crossed for you Thanks

spinningirl10 · 29/04/2014 08:04

Oh wow Linda that's fantastic news!!!

Congratulations, have you had any symptoms and how many dpo are you?

Congratulations FancyGrin

theduchesse · 29/04/2014 07:59

Congrats fancy and Linda. The tail end of April has been very lucky! Let's keep it up through May!

NewlymrsB · 29/04/2014 07:56

Yay congrats!! Love seeing people get their bfp!! Xx

fancyacupoftea · 29/04/2014 07:54

Got my fingers crossed it gets darker linda! Would be good to have a co-graduate to the an threads!

EnglishGirlAbroad · 29/04/2014 07:32

Wow! Linda that's great!!Smile

And Fancy!! No problem hopping overtop share the good news! Congratulations!! Grin

lindamagoo · 29/04/2014 07:27

Congrats fancy, that's great news Thanks

I think I may have the faintest line this morning. Will in no way get excited unless it gets darker over the next few days as it's ic tests

fancyacupoftea · 29/04/2014 07:12

I know I'm a bus stealer because I'm technically on the April bus but was convinced I was just waiting for af before hopping on here. But I only got a fucking BFP!!!

spinningirl10 · 29/04/2014 07:07
