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'.

Congrats Penny!!

This is the worst day for me. AF due day. My temps have been all over the place and no ovulation has been detected. We've DTD just four times. And yet still I am desperately hoping for a bfp! Ridiculous, I know.

Hoping AF comes soon so I can get on with the next month.

Penny31 · 16/04/2013 10:22

Still keeping fx for you candlestick!

Wardy I think you are supposed to DTD on day of positive as well as the day after so you are fine!

JellyBeanDavey · 16/04/2013 11:00

Gilly I have a song for you and it's Lionel Richie - all niiiiight loooong ;)

I haven't had a positive opk but my temp dipped right down on the 14th and now is right up the last two days so I think I ov'd then. So what I've done is I have 2 apps, one is fert friend and the other is iPeriod, and I've put on iP that I ov'd and on ff I have left it. So technically I am 2dpo! This is exciting. Grin

Wardy17 · 16/04/2013 12:28

pumpkinsweetie · 16/04/2013 12:43

It's not over yet candlestickowner, you never know...
coming up to expecting af Friday, slight mood swings and tummy cramps, hoping it isn't pmt Sad

gillywillywoo · 16/04/2013 13:08

Just done another OPK in work and pretty sure it's positive... Finally!!!!! Cd23 for gods sake!!!!! Shock

The line was dark this morning and I think the one I've just done is darker again. It's definitely the same as the control line.

Straight out after work for a drink or 2 then straight home for some sexy time haha Grin

Penny31 · 16/04/2013 13:14

Yey gilly! Fab news :)

gillywillywoo · 16/04/2013 13:23

It's annoying cos we were away for the weekend and soooo tired last night so we haven't dtd since last thurs!
Hope I haven't made a big error!!!!!!!

Positive OPK finally though so isn't that supposed to mean I will ov in the next 24 hours or something?! I need to have sex NOW!!!!!! Except I'm in work at my desk! Hmm

gillywillywoo · 17/04/2013 12:17

Penny! Any news? Have you tested again? Xx

Penny31 · 17/04/2013 12:20

Yes of course! Hehe no different yesterday to be honest :( might invest in cb digital tonight......

gillywillywoo · 17/04/2013 12:27

I think you should Smile good luck!

In other news, DH and I went out for drinks with friends last night... Ended up getting very drunk, eating KFC in the kitchen at stupid o'clock in the morning and both fell asleep straight away Grin

DH was also sick in the night in the bathroom...Hmm

Very annoyed we didn't dtd... Especially after getting what I think was a positive OPK yesterday!

We are both off work today so we just dtd (with maggies funeral on in the background... Awkward Grin)

He's now having a shower and I'm lying on the bed with my legs in the air...posting on mumsnet... LOL

Think we'll go out somewhere nice for the afternoon and try to dtd again tonight.

I'm not even sure now whether it was a positive OPK or not... Looked positive but I have no EWCM and I'm on cd24! Seems so late to be ovulating.

Ahhhh well. Time will tell!

MrsAVB · 17/04/2013 13:24

gilly you make me lol. I'm not sure I could manage dtd with maggie's funeral in the background. Does your DH like powerful women? Enjoy the rest of your day off.
& welcome dowk

gillywillywoo · 17/04/2013 15:24

Hahahahahahahaha no... ! Grin
We just kinda forgot to turn it off!

Don't think he even noticed but I was slightly distracted!

PurpleGeekyGirl · 17/04/2013 15:39

waves

I was resident on the bfp threads a while back but got too obsessed and stepped away from the computer to save my sanity so not sure if anyone remembers me. Anyways, I'm one to two days late (normal cycle 25-26 days) with no sign of AF arriving (and I am a very regular girl!) but have had a BFN with a FRER and a digital CB... Neither used FMU to be fair. Digital was on Mon and FRER today (was due Tues).

TMI alert: usually before af I get spotting in clear cm three days before and then pink cm the day before, especially after DTD (which we did yesterday). But nada. I do have lots of clear/creamy cm coming out and feel very 'wet' down there (far tmi sorry) Also my mouth tastes like I have been sucking on paracetamol tablets Confused and have quite bad nausea that comes and goes. Feeding the cat on Monday was horrible, yummy iams! And today someone at the other end of the train waiting room was eating a pâté sandwich, the smell of which that made me heave.

Basically I'm going insane. Am I or aren't I. That is the question. And I know you can't answer it but I just want to know dammit! With ds I'd given up and didn't test till I was a week late and had no symptoms with him at all so I can't even compare to that...

WanabeMum · 17/04/2013 19:25

Hey purple I got too obsessed first time too, trying to be better this time!
All sounds positive to me, maybe you don't have enough hgc in your urine yet? Try again with fmu in a few days, you never know! Smile

WanabeMum · 17/04/2013 20:17

Feel really fed up, cd33 today, no sign of AF. Got tender boobs, had a brown smear when wiping last Thursday, very vivid dreams most nights since, some tenderness down there on and off, now a bit crampy. Cramps seem to be mild a come and go but 3 bfn's Sad what is going on?!

Penny31 · 17/04/2013 20:40

Wanabe which tests are you using? I've been using Internet cheapies and I got like a shadow of a line, in the right light and if I squint :) my boobs have been sore for a week now and I feel a bit nauseous now and again ( but I've put that down to anxiety). I've got clear blue tests now and I'm going to try again in the morning.

WanabeMum · 17/04/2013 20:42

Been using Internet cheapies but not with fmu. Will try again with fmu and if nothing by the weekend may invest in clearblue!

gillywillywoo · 17/04/2013 20:51

Hi purple! Welcome aboard! Smile
What are your stats? I'll put you on the list! X

gillywillywoo · 17/04/2013 20:56

Wanabemum that sounds promisingl! Keep us updated Smile

Penny do more tests and let us know! SmileX
