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.

Awww, the bunnies have gone :(. I hope Mr a Dragon doesn't go too (I'll miss him!).

Just in case he does go walkabouts... Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon Dragon

Rawr!

How is everyone this morning? I'm in a proper "I can't be arsed" mood today. Not a good start to what could be yet another busy day. Ah well, can't be superwoman all the time.

(Just a few more Dragon Dragon Dragon for good measure!)

Thanks for doing the stats English. It's cool to see who your "cycle buddies" are and who might be getting a bfp the same day Grin

theduchesse · 24/04/2014 09:28

Thanks for the welcome. That is so frustrating kurama. It would be so much easier if our bodies would just make sense. At one point last cycle I was doing opk's and hpt's because I had no idea if I'd ov'd yet or not. Turns out I'd helpfully ov'd while I had thrush. Grrrr. At least give me a chance body!

theduchesse · 24/04/2014 09:28

And thanks for the stats English!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 24/04/2014 09:49

Hello ladies! can I hop on for the ride while I decide whether we are going to continue ttc for a bit?

Stats cycle 5, bfp 22nd may

We are trying very hard to buy a house and I think the stress of it might make this an impossible month or 2.

Feeling a bit meh as my dd would say!

hanflan · 24/04/2014 10:03

Hi mrs, welcome to the May bus!

hanflan · 24/04/2014 10:03

And yup, I recently bought a house with my husband, it's horrific haha!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 24/04/2014 10:05

Thanks hanflan, it's not a surprise, but do feel myself needing a I was hoping for the immaculate conception though! WinkGrin

lindamagoo · 24/04/2014 10:05

Oh no MrsE I'm so sorry to see you over here! Did the bitch get you?

MrsExtraOrdinary · 24/04/2014 10:07

The pain Woke me up at 5am ! How very dare she. Af due today. Blood stained cm. I'm nota spotta, so have been sensible and put the frer back in the box. The flood will probably arrive in full as dfs turn up at the door! Shock

lindamagoo · 24/04/2014 10:10

Och that's crap MrsE, hope the pains not too bad! Do you take anything for it?

MrsExtraOrdinary · 24/04/2014 10:17

I took codeine at 5am. It's the only way I will get through today. It's bound to be a bad one as I got off way to lightly last month. I'd really like to go back to bed with a hottie lmao (as my mum used to call it) but will have to power on as work deadlines are massive and deliveries collections throughout the day. I will be on the Wine later though !

lindamagoo · 24/04/2014 10:26

Hope you have a quick day and that Wine is in your hand before you know it

EnglishGirlAbroad · 24/04/2014 10:26

Sorry to see you here MrsE, dust yourself down, indulge in wine, chocolate and cake. Hope the pain subsides soon.

Come on girls, lets be positive! May will be our month!!!

Starbright24 · 24/04/2014 10:26

Aww MrsE that doesn't sound good at all. Sad

Thanks for the stats - mine aren't quite right - bfp due 1st May not 15th. Don't make me wait another 2 weeks!!!

Welcome to the new people on the bus Smile

EnglishGirlAbroad · 24/04/2014 10:28

Oh shite....sorry Star!! Will adjust next time!! Smile

toothachereturns · 24/04/2014 10:30

MrsExtraO - sounds nasty. Sad

English - wow I had no idea there were so many of us on this thread now. Well done for keeping track. Thank you!!! Smile

Im cd8 and classing my positive opk result yesterday as a bit of an error. DTD this morning anyway though. Grin

If it was an accurated positive then my bfp is due much sooner and I'm having a very strange cycle. Hmm

lindamagoo · 24/04/2014 10:42

I'm in a very positive mood about this month Smile even if I don't get my bfp my best friend has decided to keep her baby, going against a lot of people's wishes but doing what is right for her, very proud of her Smile

MrsExtraOrdinary · 24/04/2014 10:53

Linda I'm so pleased for you and your friend. I can honestly say I was in exactly the sand situation with dc4. Divorced with 3 dc under 8, skint, tiny house, nightmare ex who told me I'd make everyone's life a living hell if I had the baby, which was the final straw. It was the last time anyone tried to dictate my life. Life got so much better from that point. I had the birth I chose and the life I chose. With friends like you it will be so much easier for her Smile

MelMc73 · 24/04/2014 10:53

kurama - I would say the solid smiley was false and you should go with the new flasher. As soon as you get a solid smiley it should stay there for 48 hours and you shouldn't be able to test during that time. I found this info on the cb website which explains more about how it works...uk.clearblue.com/clearblue-ovulation-test-range/clearblue-digital-ovulation-test-with-dual-hormone-indicator

lindamagoo · 24/04/2014 10:59

MrsE it must have been a tough time for you, I know it has been for my friend and she only has 1 ds. I believe 100% she can do this without his help and her family will come round eventually and I will never let her down. And I think her life will be so much better now that she's chose the path she wants to go down Smile

broodysnoopstie · 24/04/2014 11:01

Thanks for stats English. sympathy my af is bloody torture this month!

Kurama you aren't supposed to keep testing when you have had solid smiley or the sticks will think it's a new cycle. Just dtd like a crazy person for 48 hours or so... as I think it stays fixed for two days indicating you will ov in those 2 days... People ov as early as CD 6 so maybe you are an early ovulater!
