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

How long does everyone's LH surge take to ramp up? These are my OPKS from Sat early afternoon to today (Monday) morning. Looks like I should get a positive one this afternoon but I'd be interested to have someone else's to compare to.

Note - this is NOT my grotty windowsill Grin

bertie you usually ovulate 14 days before your next period, so no matter how long your cycle is, the luteal phase (between ov and af) is always around 14 days(on average). I have a 13 day luteal phase.
If you fancied keeping track you can get a huge bundle of cheapy opks from Amazon.

under mine usually look similar to your over the course of 3 days. Haven't got any pics to compare though sorry.

No I think DH will die of anxiety if I buy OPKs Grin

So basically the date of ovulation might move around depending on cycle length. Interesting! :)

Could someone please distract me do that I don't poas any more!

We haven't been trying and so I don't even know for sure when cd1 was but I think it was three weeks ago, we dtd 11 days ago and if I ov'ed mid cycle I could be in with a shout. Which has resulted in a poas obsession. I shouldn't even test until the end of the week but just caved and stopped at tesco. Ok I'll admit it, I did a quick test at tesco (bfn- unless really squinting but even I'm not that deluded, yet)
So quicktell me jokes, tell me off, anything to stop me poas until at least the end of the week!
Jeez is forgotten quick how difficult it is to not poas!

Whatamuddleduck · 22/03/2016 17:46

Hmm I have clearly lost the ability to spell (runs off to check if that's a pg symptom).

weechops · 22/03/2016 19:28

Right lady, step away from the pee sticks!
You are far too early to test (she says, forgetting that she tests from 8dpo, ahem)

Put them out of reach, exercise some will power and only test on Friday as a reward Grin

Thanks wee chops
I'll hide in here and avoid the march bus - to much tempting testing going on in there! Give it a week and those opks will no doubt start looking tempting. What is it with Ttc and peeling on things!

Dutchy88 · 22/03/2016 21:23

I forgot how much ttc consumes your every thought (even though last time was less than a year and a half ago. I need to get a grip as my periods have only just returned and my cycles are still messed up so its not likely to be soon!! Someone virtually slap me please 😀

I need to keep my strength up after all the BD this week Blush

GinandJazzHands · 23/03/2016 07:14

Welcome Jod! under - definitely agree I've got DTD fatigue this end. DPO5 and glad of the break! Just need to keep myself sane until I can POAS.

underrugsswept · 23/03/2016 11:08

Does anyone fancy sharing their charts? I'm new to tempting so am interested to see what everyone else's look like. It doesn't matter whether it's this/last month.

I'll start... I'm hoping for a temp rise tomorrow. Having a day off today then might BD again on Thurs.

Temping! Autocorrect fail.

Tabitha78 · 23/03/2016 14:50

There seems to be a lot of chocolate flying around on this bus, must be nearly Easter!

So I'm now on cd7 having had coil out on Monday (smarted a bit!!) so will see what happens from here Confused

Good luck to you all for April!

Jod1985 · 23/03/2016 15:15

I'm getting mine out in 30 mins tabitha!!! Eeeekkkk

Tabitha78 · 23/03/2016 15:26

Jod you'll be fine - just takes your breath away a bit!!

Tabitha78 · 23/03/2016 15:28

p.s. Think the baby thing will hurt a whole lot more Wink

Jod1985 · 23/03/2016 15:59

Done!!! And didn't feel a thing! Yes the baby thing does hurt A LOT more but I love giving birth! I would do it anyway over being pregnant as I suffered with HG all the way through my pregnancies.

Tabitha78 · 23/03/2016 17:01

Lucky you that it didn't hurt Jod!** Hope you don't get HG this time round

GinandJazzHands · 23/03/2016 19:39

How are people getting pictures of their charts off FF??? Confused

underrugsswept · 23/03/2016 22:03

Thanks Gin. Not long now until your BFP then Wink. I wonder why my temps are so flat. Yours looks much more interesting!

underrugsswept · 23/03/2016 22:04

Giraffes - I just took a screenshot from FF and cropped it a bit.
