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

I'm waiting until the 25th, Happy. Less than two weeks to go!!

happysunshineandrainbows · 12/04/2016 17:47

We can do this sooz. :-)

AliceScarlett · 12/04/2016 19:57

I'm due to test on the 24th...so far away.

Still BFN and still no AF Confused
16 dpo today and my luteal phase is always 14 days. The only thing I can think of that might have disrupted things was being at different altitudes when I went skiing, maybe? But I was expecting it to affect the ov date rather than LP length.

Temp has stayed high so far too - it normally drops right back to pre-ov levels the day before AF.

But definitely BFN - not even a hint of a line no matter what angle I hold it up to the light

Good luck to everyone else getting ready to test!

Tabitha78 · 13/04/2016 08:13

Ah Giraffes how frustrating. Have you got any symptoms?

BertieBotts · 13/04/2016 10:56

I'm still in limbo too Giraffes. (Can I still hang out here for a bit? I don't want to join any antenatal threads until I either get a stronger line or I get through the next couple of weeks without bleeding.)

I get lines but only if I really strain and look to the light and they don't show up on photos. DH doesn't believe me yet. He made a horrible comment yesterday of "I know you really want to be pregnant but..." which I wouldn't mind, but it's not even that! I didn't particularly want it to happen the first month! Hmm and then this morning he was like "You have pre-period boobs, so you're definitely not pregnant." I guess that he's just insulating himself because he doesn't want to get his hopes up. Which is fine. I know that we are high risk for early mc so I'm only seeing this as step one really.

Symptoms are balloon boobs (bigger and much more sensitive than pre-period), immense hunger (and I don't know what to eat :( ), weird dreams, stretching sensations and this morning I've had that sour taste a couple of times like when you're about to throw up but haven't actually felt or been sick at all.

DH is having more symptoms than me! He's had weird dreams (weird for him, his dreams as described are exactly like my normal ones but more vivid), hot flushes, random emotional/tearful moments where he doesn't know why he's upset, seriously bonkers food cravings and this morning he had stomach ache and felt sick.

AF arrived, which is disappointing but at least cycle 4 is underway.

Good luck ladies!

Tabitha78 · 13/04/2016 20:25

Oh no giraffes - fingers crossed for you next month

happysunshineandrainbows · 13/04/2016 22:13

Fingers crossed for next month giraffes X

Tabitha78 · 14/04/2016 07:35

So AF is a day late now but another BFN. I usually have regular cycles, so really not sure what it going on!

Dixxie · 14/04/2016 08:25

I have a BFP on my 43 birthday! Been TTC for 3 years, one miscarriage 18 months ago. Had a hysteroscopy where they flushed my tubes and a few weeks off my stressful job and seems to have done the trick... Now we're SO excited but anxious about getting through to 12 weeks. Tummy and boobs swollen, dizzy, headaches and terrible insomnia already. Good luck everyone. For me, I think I finally believed it was possible when all my tests were optimum and no sign of endometriosis (also had laparoscopy at same time as hysteroscopy, as I get agonising periods each month).

hanflan · 14/04/2016 09:41

Huge congratulations Dixxie! Sounds like it's been a long rough road to get to this point so here's to a healthy happy pregnancy for you.

nataliefruit · 14/04/2016 10:02

Sorry havent been on in ages! Sorry about your AF Giraffes, here's to next month!

Massive congratulations on your bfp Dixxie! So happy for you and fx for a sticky bean!

My AF is due today and no sign yet. If it doesn't arrive today I'll test tomorrow - managed to resist up to now but don't think I can resist the lure of poas much longer! Grin

Sparrowlegs248 · 14/04/2016 10:56

Just checking in, congratulations Dixxie!!

Sorry af got you giraffe. And what is going on with all these 'no af/bfn'? I know the explanation for mine...... Just wish it would hurry up now.

Are you still testing Bertie?

happysunshineandrainbows · 14/04/2016 11:23

Congrats Dixxie!!

samk15 · 14/04/2016 12:57

Aww congratulations Dixxie. That's fabulous news. Fingers crossed

weechops · 14/04/2016 13:49

Congratulations dixxie!

I'm driving myself nuts spotting random symptoms! Slightly crampy today and boobs are a bit sore (when I poke them long enough!) I'll be 10dpo tomorrow I think so I might use one of my cheapy tests in the morning.
