No April Fools on the April BFP Bus, we got cookies

[padster75]

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'.

And you only have a short window after ov. Better the sperm is waiting there!

Thanks Candle, FX for you too xx

Candle - thanks, that's really good to know! Roll on a busy Easter weekend!

Can I join too? TTC#1, cycle 1. Don't think there's much chance this month, only DTD once (ovulated 23rd or 24th, I think), but at least we got started!

Hello all, just had a little catch up. pads you did make me 'lol' xx
Mad day here. Got another one 2moro. 27 kids at my holiday club! Bring on all the fun easter activities :) hopefully there is the threads first BFP waiting round the corner. Exciting :D

Ok Ladies I need some brain help.

CD 21, DTD on 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 & 19, FF says I ov CD18 ....... do you guys reckon I've got it covered? I have no idea as CM is non existent with the anti-histamines I am currently having to take.

Away for the long Easter weekend, so catch up with you all next week sometime. Have a peaceful and happy Easter. Stay safe & be naughty

Fx padster! You may well have it covered

Speaking of fertility friend, my temps are all over the place. Came crashing down today to 35.97. Looked so low I popped it straight back in my mouth - 36.69. Is there any point?!

I've given up temping for this month CandlestickOlder, I missed a few and the others were all over the place, might try again next month.

I think I may have failed already for April - I am on CD8 today and have so far failed to DTD. My cycles are short at c.21-25 days, so assuming I have a luteal phase of 14days I would need to have started DTD on Monday, which was CD5 (yep, while AF was still with me!).

Have had an absolute week from hell with work with horrendous early starts and late finishes, which has meant I have been totally knackered. Last night my knackeredness made me moody so DH and I argued instead of DTD! Grrrr!!

I need to be sweetness and light tonight and hope that actually my luteal phase is shorter than 14 days so I might still be in with a chance for this month.

On the plus side, I haven't noticed any OV symptoms, no CM, nothing, so am hoping I am still in with a chance.

Padster sounds like you have it pretty well covered!

Lisa you're definitely still in with as chance. Fingers crossed :)

Don't give up Lisa you might ovulate on cd 15/16 or later!

I am feeling really down today I have convinced myself I am not pg this month, I have no symptoms and had some stretchy cm yesterday (hardly any) but if that was fertile cm then I've totally missed the boat. I calculate myself to me 9/10 dpo I have zero symptoms, I got positive OPK on 17th and 18th but google says that doesn't mean I've ovulated. So confused and miserable.

2014 just seems so long away

Sorry for my moaning!!!!

Sorry to hear you're feeling down wardy

It's not over til AF arrives so you just never know... And if AF does come then just get through it and focus on dtd lots for another month!
I'm only on my second month of trying now and I already feel impatient... It will happen eventually and we are all in it together!
Xx

Thanks gilly, this is my first normal cycle since mmc in Nov and just really thought when it all happened in nov that I would be pg again by now which is silly really. Just took periods so long to get back to normal. Just fed up really. Had loads of sex during fertile week but none since, stupid mistake.

Sorry, I hope I'm not bringing you all down x

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.

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

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

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!!!

Hey everyone, been busy so just catching up!
Sorry to hear you're feeling blue wardy 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!
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
Nice to see lots of other symptom spotters here too. Liking the idea of hot cross buns and Easter eggs MrsAVB!!!

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 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!)

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.

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

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 . It's just as well really, cleaning the outsides of windows is probably an activity best performed in daylight
Catch up with you tomorrow ladies!

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?

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

Welcome aboard pixie! I only have chocolate!!!
