I thought I may as well start up the April bus since af rudely kicked me off the February bus, and my dh isn't here for March!

Been ttc #4 since September last year. Tricky as dh works abroad so much! I think I'm due to ov on the 3rd of April and dh is home on the 1st, so fx we catch it! I'll be testing round about 17th April.

Anyone else ready to hop on board to keep me company? I have a large bag of mini eggs to share Grin

Good timing weechops

I haven't ever done the temping thing so your charts are all a mystery to me!

No news here. Still no af. Not feeling like it's coming either. BUT not getting excited. I might do a test tomorrow. I really don't think I will get a bfp this time. I have only had one period since ds was born and fully expect it to take a while before my cycles become regular.

BertieBotts · 04/04/2016 08:13

No I haven't done temping either. Somehow I always forget when I'm half asleep and by the time I remember I've already had a conversation with DS or snuggled up to DH so it seems like it wouldn't be very accurate. I need an automatic one :o

I do know though that a friend who was temping knew she was PG before a test would show it up because she was temping and her temp stayed up at the point it should be falling. If that's useful info for any of you.

everdene · 04/04/2016 09:29

I'm not temping either as I have epilepsy and it can be inaccurate due to mild seizures.

I have my trusty(ish) OPK sticks and need to get out of the slight rut DH and I have got into where we're always tired! Next ovulating April 27?so I hope we're in a routine by then!

Sparrowlegs248 · 04/04/2016 10:09

Poas and it's bfn. Not surprised, so assume I just wait til me next af shows up and see what my cycles do. It's a bit disheartening as I can't really get going til I know what's what.

GiraffesCantDoMentalArithmetic · 04/04/2016 10:33

Bertie I've always known too because of temps.

Nottalotta how frustrating!

Weechops have fun!!!!

I am 7dpo and twiddling my thumbs. I had some weird stabbing pains 'down below' yesterday ... Probably wind! Grin And that's all. No interesting symptoms to agonise over.

BertieBotts · 04/04/2016 10:57

I think I'm 6 or 9 dpo now. Only 8 days left to test! Grin I don't feel pregnant this time but it's still fun to speculate. Have been having some stretching feelings in the womb area but that's not very unusual for me.

TryingToStayRational · 04/04/2016 11:01

Sorry to hear that Notta but it sounds like you have a healthy attitude to things. Hope your cycles soon settle so you know what's what.

I'm into "trying not to POAS" territory now at 9/10 dpo. My gut feeling is I will get a BFN this time but it is still hard to resist somehow. On the positive side I think temping this cycle has been useful for me because it indicates that I ovulated, which has reassured me.

I had a good chat with a friend who is also ttc#1, which made me feel heaps better as pretty much everyone I know already has kids so I feel slightly left behind sometimes.

Big Monday morning hugs to everyone, hope that this week brings fertile windows, BFPs and smiles. And Cake and Wine for those who need it! X

weechops · 04/04/2016 12:07

Aw notta sorry for the bfn

trying you have steel willpower!

Managed a quicky this morning and my opk this afternoon was positive!

I have discovered the site www.countdowntopregnancy.com/ and I'm totally addicted Grin They have all kinds of interesting tools on there including a gallery where you can squint at and vote on strangers' pee sticks!

weechops · 04/04/2016 13:17

bertie I love that site! I like to obsess over the 'symptoms by days past ovulation' part 😄

BertieBotts · 04/04/2016 13:33

Yes! I've been on that page too. And I like that you can put your own symptoms in and compare them to yourself. :)

Dutchy88 · 04/04/2016 18:50

I'm out this month. Af got me but on the plus side my cycle is much more normal now at 32 days vs previous 15 days.

Tabitha78 · 04/04/2016 19:13

Sorry to hear that Notta and Bertie

searchingchocolate · 04/04/2016 19:20

Sorry af got you notta and dutchy.

Nice bd timing weechops

Charters what do you think? I'm trying not to read anything into it but my temps are usually a lot more all over the place...I just want to fast forward a week or so!

No April Fools, just bfp's please! April BFP bus!!
TryingToStayRational · 04/04/2016 20:13

Sorry to all those the witch has claimed - maybe see you on the next bus.

searching I'm certainly no expert but that looks pretty good to me. Only time will tell but fx for you!

My chart is a bit all over the place and only managed one BD this time so not feeling too hopeful, but you never know.

No April Fools, just bfp's please! April BFP bus!!
Tabitha78 · 04/04/2016 20:33

Erm. Not so random question. How long would an evap line appear on a test after. Would any line after half an hour be an evap?

No April Fools, just bfp's please! April BFP bus!!
underrugsswept · 04/04/2016 20:36

I think you're supposed to discount any line after 10 mins. Is it pink? Where is the test from? I read on another thread that Superdrug ones are bad for them.

Tabitha78 · 04/04/2016 20:37

Yes it's Superdrug. Just happened to glance at it half an hour after testing and noticed it. Wasn't there in first three mins

Tabitha78 · 04/04/2016 20:37

It is pink...

BertieBotts · 04/04/2016 20:46

Hang on I read something about evaporation lines today.

Sparrowlegs248 · 04/04/2016 20:47

That happened to me Tabitha, I did a cheapo boots dipstick. Nothing after three minutes, medium looking line (as in not feint) a while later. I don't really understand the whole evap line thing but assumed that's what it was.

underrugsswept · 04/04/2016 20:47

I think it can only be pink if the right hormone is present. There was a great post on here once about the notorious evap. I'd say it looks very promising - test again tomorrow!

Sparrowlegs248 · 04/04/2016 20:48

Wait! What?!? Mine was pink!

Tabitha78 · 04/04/2016 20:49

p.s. I know I said I wouldn't POAS until AF was due, but curiosity got the better of me Blush

Tabitha78 · 04/04/2016 20:52

Gah, Superdrug is flipping miles away! I'll have to schlep there in the morning!!
