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.

Positive opk yesterday, cd11, and lots of ewcm today, the cough bottle seems to have worked very well this month Smile will dtd the next couple of days and hope for the best Smile

hanflan · 17/04/2014 11:41

Awww it's rubbish to see so many of you joining us from the April bus, but nice in that it's good to have more company and support! I am currently on cd4 and wishing the next month away already. Arghhh!

lindamagoo · 17/04/2014 14:33

Ooooops it seems as though I "accidentally" order more ic pregnancy tests after promising I wouldn't this cycle, oh well Grin

kurama · 17/04/2014 14:47

lol linda !!! Han im only on cd5 and im doing the same thing! i even started using opks this morn just in case, even tho i know nothing will show till at least cd11.....

MissMrsMummy · 17/04/2014 14:49

Having a lube-mare!

Forgot to order more Preseed for this cycle and used up my last applicator last night (then we didn't even DTD as we had an argument - what a waste of the lube and tube!)

Went to Bootts. They only had Balance Activ (never heard of; no idea if it's any good) but the two boxes were ripped open so I didn't buy.

Went to Superdrug. Only had Balance Activ. Bought the box and walked out.

The door alarm went off! We were pulled aside by security and had to be the box out in front of nosy onlookers!

Mortified.

lindamagoo · 17/04/2014 15:32

Haha MissMrs that really made me lol Grin That's the kind of thing that always happens to me Smile

So after my +opk yesterday and loads of ewcm today (never had this much before so I think it's down to the cough bottle) if we dtd last night, tonight, tomorrow and Saturday we can stop right? Don't think oh will keep going after that, lol

toothachereturns · 17/04/2014 20:30

Can I hop on this thread now? Moving on from the April thread! AF showed up today. Sad

kurama · 17/04/2014 21:47

im confused. yes my cycles are lighter since being on clomid but im still getting slight af cramps and slightly sore nipples and i should be on cd 5 currently. i did a test on day af arrived and it was a bfn....but although most of af was mostly dark coloured the last days was bright red sorry tmi. i dont know what to do.....should i test tomoro? ive already had 4 outta 5 of this months clomid tabs....

spinningirl10 · 17/04/2014 22:38

Linda....sounds like a good plan Grin

toothachereturns · 17/04/2014 22:43

Viperama · 17/04/2014 23:06

Evening all. I'm so miffed bf made a crap inappropriate joke about TTC tonight, he regretted it instantly but I am so mad. He's asked me to take up yoga again to help me relax which I'm happily doing and then he fing makes a shit comment. Grrrr. I've avoided him since and he's gone to bed as soon as I started brushing my teeth and I've come back to him snoring like a bear. How can he sleep when I'm so mad. Why are men so annoying?!

CD6 today and I've started opk, morning on flashing cb and evening on regular (using up last months stock) started testing today as last months cycle was 24 days only. Starting DTD tmrw if he's bloody lucky!!

I forgot the lemon today, must remember!

Sorry to see so many April lovelies, I wish we were all on another board iykwim but at least we're in good company xx

MissMrsMummy · 17/04/2014 23:18

Viper it's so hard to remember everything isn't it?!

If you google alkaline diet you can actually avoid foods that make you acidic but it's basically all food that isn't a plant lol

MrsGingerbread · 18/04/2014 00:21

Oh, stats for when we do a round up. ..

Mrs Gingerbread ttc #1 cycle 3 BFP due 9th May

spinningirl10 · 18/04/2014 07:40

Hehe tooth....dp was watching tv and telling me to get my bum in the air to keep the swimmers up thereGrin

Starbright24 · 18/04/2014 07:50

Is 25 days bad. I'm always 25 days Confused

KittyVonCatsington · 18/04/2014 08:34

Hi MissMrs-I've only ever used Balance Activ so can recommend it if it makes your little episode worth it!!!

Thanks for making me Grin Got my first ever error on a CB Digi and didn't PIAC so am not drinking for the next few hours and trying again. Grrr! Expecting a solid today on CD18. Also a bit peeved as DH is going away sailing this weekend -right at the key time, so I might get two goes on the May bus. Officially hate being a late ovulator today. If I was having normal cycles, I'd be a few days into the TWW already!!

Starbright24 · 18/04/2014 09:31

Hey...how did I get a mini repeat post there. Stupid box not deleting after sent a couple of days ago.

Went to doctors yesterday and have now got some blood tests booked for next week and my mr has to take a little cup of his swimmers up to the hospital for looking at.
Dr was very reassuring as I was nervous about it.

Well..better get going for the day now. Time to stop waving my legs in the air.

kurama · 18/04/2014 09:42

cd 6 and a flashy smiley... how many am i gonna get this time before my solid? lol

Starbright24 · 18/04/2014 10:48

What does tbu stand for on the little bunny ears? Easter Hmm

Lunawolf · 18/04/2014 11:57

Hi all!

AF on its way, I'm totally gutted.

TTC #2 cycle 14. Can't believe it's cycle 14!!!

First appointment at clinic on 25th, everything crossed.

Good luck everyone! Positive vibes for May Smile xxx

JacktheLab · 18/04/2014 12:47

Howdy all, I'm at work on Good Friday grrr! I just had a little thought that it would be lovely to be on maternity leave this time next year enjoying the sunshine Grin

Hello to new people, let's hope we get a bfp soon although given dh and I's lack of dtd it's not likely to be me. Not to worried he's been told we will be really trying from next month once a Xmas baby isn't a possibility and hopefully get a baby born before the end of feb so we avoid an extra year of childcare Shock

EnglishGirlAbroad · 18/04/2014 13:15

I'm working too Jack. Sucks! And not even many fannys to wax! Crap, boring day. I'd rather be at home with DH!

spinningirl10 · 18/04/2014 13:36

Got another negative opk but lots of cm so maybe I missed my peak, oh well, will keep poas and dtd Grin

spinningirl10 · 18/04/2014 13:37

Ah working today is rubbish!! I just ha to do a couple of hours first thing but I work mainly from home so not too bad. Enjoying the sunshine now whilst catching up on MN Grin

toothachereturns · 18/04/2014 14:10
