I have a hangover. Really not taking this baby making seriously enough.

Ow linda that sounds painful, hope you get lots of rest and feel better soon.

LAST DAY OF SCHOOL HOLIDAYS DOOOOOOM.

spinningirl10 · 21/04/2014 09:25

Linda pleased you're ok, how did you manage to damage the lining?

Choco, sorry for the bfn but it's not over yet!

Ah Victoria, sorry your symptoms have vanished, fx for you.

lindamagoo · 21/04/2014 09:30

It's with coughing so much, stupid chest infection won't shift and I've had it 3/4 weeks now, pain in the arse Hmm

Tilly28 · 21/04/2014 09:33

Ergh fancy....please don't remind me!! At least there are only 23 school days until the next half term! :-)

Linda pleased you're ok :-)

choco .... It's not over until AF arrives!

victoria fx still for a bfp

8dpo here, no real symptoms I don't think although I did get up in the night for the toilet which is unusual! SYMPTOM!! :p going to count up my ICs and see how many iv got to work out when I can start testing and not run out lol! :-)

MademoiselleG · 21/04/2014 09:50

fancy, I had a few drinks yesterday and it seems to have made my sinusitis creep back as I now can't breathe through my nose again Sad apparently teetotal is the way to go.

I POAS in the early hours of the morning Blush

Didn't realise till I opened up the Sainsburys tests I got yesterday that they're the blue dye ones, so don't trust anything they say anyway! After 2 mins, looked at it and there was the shadow of a line, which then totally disappeared. I did take a pic but you really can't see anything.

So, momentarily excited, now pissed off and testing tomorrow with a pink dye test Angry

So far my symptoms are:
Peeing a lot (but I'm drinking loads of water to flush out the cold)
Nosebleeds (I never ever get them, but I have been blowing my nose far more than usual recently)
An aversion to pork crackling (wtf? Specific or what?!)

So all explicable or just plain weird. Ho hum. Patience, patience...

KittyVonCatsington · 21/04/2014 10:05

linda - you are going through a lot right now, how rotten for you Thanks Hope you feel better sooner rather than later.

victoria - doesn't necessarily mean no BFP for you

Choco-don't beat yourself up over POAS early, seeing a definite blank will mean you will be in no doubt when your faint will eventually appear Easter Grin

Doing even more school work this morning - God knows how I will find the time to fit in all these extra hours when I have a little one. Easter Hmm

gennibugs · 21/04/2014 10:10

I poas this morning. Bfn. Probably too early but couldn't resist.
I'm unlikely to get a BFP this month anyway so don't even no why I did!

Retro test again tomorrow and of course let us know! Not to get your hopes up but my cousin always says the only time she gets nosebleeds is when she is pregnant - that's how she's known each time and she's got 5 kids.

victoria no symptoms could be a symptom in itself?

I too have back to work doom - I've been off for weeks for various reasons - went In last week for a couple of days and it was horrible so dreading tomorrow. I can't change job though as I need the mat leave and pay if we are to keep ttc. Ugh.

spinningirl10 · 21/04/2014 10:14

Ooh Retro, sounds good....fx for tomorrow! How many dpo are you?

Treaclepie19 · 21/04/2014 10:32

Fingers crossed for you retro :)

victoria401 · 21/04/2014 10:37

victoria no symptoms could be a symptom in itself?

Haha! genni love it!

MademoiselleG · 21/04/2014 10:43

Good luck to everyone going back to work tomorrow...just take it easy! Stress is our worst enemy...

(I love that I waved goodbye to everyone just because I was going to the continent. They DO of course have wifi here too and I obviously cannot resist the temptation to check on my lovely fellow April bus ladies! Easter Grin

bfn for this morning tested on a 10miu ic I think I'm 13 or 14dpo. Very blank. I expect AF any day from wed.. although if it doesn't turn up I will be getting it started... doc appointment a week today as I'm on CD 75 of a usual 33 day cycle. It's just been disappointment after disappointment. I just want to get back on track! Sad

fancyacupoftea · 21/04/2014 10:47

I BLOODY LOVE EASTER EGGS.

I woke up this morning once again symptomless. It's odd though because everything I read says symptoms don't arrive until 6 weeks, but people's stories here indicate otherwise. So I don't know what to expect really.

Can't wait to go to tesco later and see if there's any marked down easter eggs!

RetroHippy · 21/04/2014 10:59

fancy, I do think a lot of symptoms are down to usual post ov progesterone. Normally we might not even notice but we're so aware of everything we're expecting to see it.

Except my symptoms. Mine are real.

I think I'm around 9-11 dpo. Had ewcm and show cervix but didn't use an OPK so I'm not entirely sure. Temped today and yesterday and temps are around where they were post ov last cycle, so reasonably confident I did ov.

Either way, it's early so not too upset yet.

Broody that's shite. Can you think of a reason why ov would have been delayed so much? I know this month I was stressed at work and poorly so that's why mine delayed by 10 days.

Am so off to get cheap Easter eggs today too Grin

MrsExtraOrdinary · 21/04/2014 11:08

It's our wedding anniversary today, I think I better get the hedge trimmers out and discontinue strike action for the sake of our marriage, lol. Mind you ds has slept in our bed every night last week, so strike was easy! Grin

Owlie84 · 21/04/2014 11:09

Happy pee-ster Monday!!
Have had friends staying this weekend, so it's taken me a while to catch up! Sorry for all the BFNs and I hope you're ok Linda and Treacle!
Unfortunately AF arrived yesterday bang on time, so I'm out. But I'll be lurking to see more BFPs rolling in ;)

KittyVonCatsington · 21/04/2014 11:21

Ahh, BFNs and AFs suck, sorry ladies. I cope by getting prepped for the next cycle with the various TTC paraphernalia. Costs a bloody fortune though Easter Sad

Happy Wedding Anniversary MrsE!! Cake

broody - sorry you are still in your mammoth cycle. I've been moaning about long cycles but yours must be super hard to cope with. Have you been back to the GP since your bloods?

RetroHippy · 21/04/2014 11:41

It smells of camping outside. Wish I knew if this was an elevated sense of smell or just my nose finally clearing.

gennibugs · 21/04/2014 12:13

Happy wedding anniversary mrsE

Sorry to those AF got.

Ooh Easter egg alert - my local tesco had them marked to half price.

There weren't many left but I may have picked up a few....

CagedMango · 21/04/2014 12:26

I'm sorry for the bfn today. Fingers crossed it is just too early to test. Happy anniversary MrsE!

Here are my stats (sorry for the delay-the last ones I wrote got lost in the Internet somewhere...).

We've tried all sorts in the past (OPK, SMEP, UDNP, concieve plus, Preseed, cutting out alcohol, dtd every other day/every day, chiropractic and one month I ate two jars of manuka honey). This month I had run out of opk, we dtd every tues, thurs, sat and sun, and I reduced stress by drinking more than usual. I think I ovd on cd13 or 14, got a bfn 13 dpo and bfp 15dpo. My only symptom was being short of breath, which I'm told is quite common and part of my body preparing itself (need more O2). Now I'm 17 dpo and my boobs are firmer and I've got a runny nose and keep sneezing.

I'm going to lurk here for a while of that's ok. I love the dragon porn and I'll be hoping for more bfp.

CagedMango · 21/04/2014 12:27

Oh and we always used conceive plus this cycle.

flirty30s · 21/04/2014 12:37

Happy anniversary Mrs E! Linda hope you get lots of rest and get fully mended soon! Choco and Victoria FX you get BFPs soon! I'm 9dpo today and took a big temp dip yesterday followed by big temp rise today. Still got a BFN when I tested this morning. Anyone else trying to make sense of temping this month?

flirty30s · 21/04/2014 12:39

Ohhh congrats Mango!! Delighted for you and love seeing the stats! X
