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'.

Thanks marie sorry to hear about your friend x

marie456 · 20/03/2013 17:05

padster that's rubbish! Have you tried any of the sperm friendly lubes? They mimic ewcm and you could use it on DH to try and help him get jiggy?! I know my DH likes it! Blush

marie456 · 20/03/2013 17:06

Or do you mean you're getting nothing on an opk?

Bajas · 20/03/2013 19:55

Hurrah. Have just spotted ewcm for first time in 7 cycles. Does this mean I'm definitely ovulating? Does it mean I'll ovulate today or have already or will in next couple of days? Sorry for the plethora of questions! Am v excited as this is the first indication I've had that we might be in with a chance! Cd10 so I now think I should be hoping for bfp on/ around 3rd April. Does that make sense?

Wardy17 · 20/03/2013 20:17

Hey, I got positive OPKs on Sunday and Monday and we've done the deed Friday, sat, sun, mon and tue! Do you think I need to continue doing the dtd or can I have a night off? Smile

Bajas · 20/03/2013 20:18

I'd say That's a good run. You might need a night off...

weechops · 20/03/2013 20:24

AW Padster :( drink grapefruit juice too to try and boost ewcm (and feel as though you're in control of something!)

Bajas ewcm is usually a sign youre in your fertile period, so probably due to ov soon. Get DTD! :)

Wardy good going! I think youre fine to have the night off :) DTD tomorrow and then keep fx.

I'm cd13 and dh is away for 2 weeks on Friday so will DTD tonight tomorrow and hopefully squeeze one in Fri before he goes.

Wardy17 · 20/03/2013 20:56

bajas definitely feel like I need a night off. I've never had ewcm either!!!

Thanks weechops

Do you think if I got pos OPKs on Sunday and Monday that I've prob ov'd already?

weechops · 20/03/2013 22:34

A pos opk means you are about to ov as it detects the surge that releases the egg. Meant to be 12-36 hours after seeing the positive so you've prob ov by now. But no harm in dtd again if you want to :)

Wardy17 · 21/03/2013 07:53

Dtd in the end but definitely having a night off tonight Smile think I'm definitely in the 2ww now FX!!!

QueenofClean · 21/03/2013 08:19

Morning Campers Grin

AF arrived over night :( so I'be fallen off the March bus...can I hop on I bring cake & biscuits!

QueenofClean TTC#3 Cycle 4 BFP due 18th April.

lisbapalea · 21/03/2013 12:01

AF just arrived for me, as I knew she would given there was no DTD last month!! My cycle seems to be getting shorter - was 22days this time. This scares me that I am not actually in a cycle long enough to get pg. Before DD my cycles were every 25days, and I know I managed to conceive with her, but I am worried that the decreasing length is going to make it harder with #2. Hmmm. Must try not to worry as I sent myself doolally in cycle1! Need to gear myself up for lots of shagging from Monday onwards (means starting while still have AF - not my favourite idea, but guess I need to keep an open mind in the name of TTC!). Positive Mental Attitude and all that jazz for this month!

I have updated the list with my new dates (am bringing expected AF/BPF date a day or two earlier), as well as Queens stats:

Hi April bus ladies!

I haven't been kicked off the march bus YET...... just looking in the window of the April bus and waving to the ladies I know!!!

AF is due in the next few days and I'm not feeling hopeful so please save a nice seat for me in case I need to hop on soon....

Good luck everyone!

xoxoxox

weechops · 21/03/2013 17:57

Poas for the second time today and just got a smiley face :) so happy we get a real shot at it this cycle! Usually dh is still on an oil rig when I'm ovulating.

Wardy17 · 21/03/2013 18:44

Good luck weechops

marie456 · 21/03/2013 18:47

Yay weechops ! Get dancing!
I had positive opk tues and weds. DTD Sat, Sun, Mon, Tues, Weds and will do it tonight as well. Is everyday bad for sperm quality? Any views on every other day instead? ...Have both been taking our conception vits from cycle day 1 and using the preseed all this week. Feeling hopeful for this month aswell as will hopefully know by my birthday (5th April) if im upduffed, so either amazing or totally sh*t present. If bfp that will mean a 2013 baby still (2014 sounds soooo far away) and the 3 month scan should fall very close to the first anniversary of my lovely Grandads passing, which would make a sad time a much happier one! Not that I've been thinking about all this too much! I realise I now sound like a massive freak! Blush Aaaagggghhh! Someone lock me up!!!

Bajas · 21/03/2013 20:05

Looks like a lot of us are hitting our fertile time together. It'll hopefully be an exciting few days in early April when we're all poas!

QueenofClean · 21/03/2013 20:14

Well I'm getting comfy in my seat! Only I thing I have an ishoo with about getting a BFP in April is that if we do then the peanut will have a birthday very close to DD2 & means another Xmas baby. DD2 was born 22nd Dec 2011 although we wasn't discharged from hospital until Xmas day, the post-natal and Neo-natal wards were lovely and Christmassy tho Smile

chocoloulou33 · 21/03/2013 23:42

Hello all. Sorry I've not been on much, internet issues. Am on my phone but that's being silly too. Can't see the posts properly. Hope ur all well. Am in 2ww so not a lot going on for me atm. Gonna try not to test early this month. Bfp due 1st april :) x

padster75 · 22/03/2013 06:40

Hi ladies,
Thanks marie & weechops for your kind words, I was really having a 'woe is me day'. Don't think I have OV yet, have had some cm and DH has finally pulled his dick finger out and remembered what to do.
at all new passengers, all are welcomed abroad, I really hope this is the last bus ride for us.
Hope you all have a good day & enjoy the weekend, we have another busy one so may just be a lurker for a few days.

Just stepped off the March bus. Have added myself to the bottom of the list. Now on cycle 18 and starting to get a bit despondent. My plans for a small gap between children have been blown out of the water. Now starting to think I won't be able to have another child. Sad
