Back to SQUARE ONE CD1! Anyone want to spend April with me?!

So AF got me this afternoon!! Trying not to get down in the dumps (although I just watched 'one born every minute' on catch-up and sobbed!)
Dusting myself off and hoping for better luck in April! A few stats:
Age-33
TTC-5th cycle
DC-1 DS (3.5 years old)
Anyone else at the start of their cycle and trying something new in the hope of a more successful month?!

Mimi no real exciting symptoms to report unfortunately!! But then the month I got lots of signs ended up with a BFN, so I'm hoping if I slip under the radar on the cramps front, I could be good for a BFP! Also looking out for my skin feeling hot, as I definitely remember that with my DS. Slightly aware of heavy/tender boobs, but that could be a sign of AF too, so won't get too carried away.
Welcome January!! Wishing you lots of luck this month xx

Whoops, not sure why that posted 3 times! Confused

Spoke too soon! Horrible cramping sensations back! I'll be afraid to go to bed tonight as it feels like AF will be there to say hi tomorrow! I wish I'd been temping tee, Dh keeps telling me I'm very hot in bed! 😂😂 seriously, I have been feeling very warm though!

Tee4me · 22/04/2016 15:37

You're not out yet Parney! The cramps could be a good thing for you. It's so horrible when AF is due and you start to get that sinking feeling, running to the loo every 5 minutes to check. FX it stays away! I stopped temping every day, only do it for a week around ovulation so I catch the spike. I used to hate seeing my temps slowly drop off as AF approached! DH remembers my skin being red hot with DH, but then again didn't notice that when pg with bean that ended in mc. I guess every pg is different, you just don't know until the witch appears!!
Are you still going to test with a FRER tomorrow?? xx

Tee4me · 22/04/2016 15:39

Meant to say *skin being red hot with DS (not DH!!!) Blush
Any other symptoms Parney??

Parney · 22/04/2016 15:55

Yea I'll buy one tomorrow morning, would wait until Sunday but my weekend plans will need to drastically change if I've a BFP. Having Wine for the first time in over a month.
No symptoms really, nipple sensitivity and cramping! My CM never changes, just amount varies Hmm I still have it. Have you anything to report today Tee? Interesting about your difference experiences with pg!

Jod1985 · 22/04/2016 15:56

Guys judging by the massive amount of EWC and the strong positives 3 times today I think I'm actually going to ovulate! If I DTD next three days that should cover me right? I hope I haven't missed it now!! Ovulation happens after the strong OPK's right? Reassure me....

Parney · 22/04/2016 16:13

You may ovulate tomorrow!?! Egg should live for 24 hours so dtd today to have sperm there and waiting! Then tomorrow and day after! Excellent news Jod, so glad you were doing OPks!

Parney · 22/04/2016 16:14

Egg can be releases 12-72 hours after surge!

Tee4me · 22/04/2016 16:31

Great news Jod! Parney's right, surge peaks before ovulation, so when you see the positives is the best time to get busy, especially if accompanied by EWCM!! Happy humping!!
Parney, nothing really to report today, nipples a little sensitive, but I had to check that. It wasn't a feeling that jumped out to me!
Please please stay away AF!! So want this to be the month!! xx

Parney · 22/04/2016 16:49

I was asking tee all this opk questions at the beginning of the thread! You're a good teacher! Smile we will all be experts! I'm with you about keeping AF away!!!!

Jod1985 · 22/04/2016 17:51

So glad I was doing those OPKs! Fate or what?! I def think I ovulated earlier in cycle too though. Maybe coil being removed caused hyper ovulation. Boobs still sore

Hope AF stays away from you girls!

Jod- how are u feeling about it? I know it's good u maybe have got positive opks but are you upset that still no stronger BFP after your previous tests? I'm sure u are.. Hugs xx
Hang in there still as it could be pregnancy signs too. Anymore nausea? Do u think there's a chance it was a chemical pregnancy? How many days are u now since coil out?

raddersmrs · 22/04/2016 17:59

Hey, hope everyone is ok.

I've done a digital test and first response and they are negative so think I've had a chemical.

Just feel numb

Footprints1 · 22/04/2016 18:02

Looks like tonight's going to be a busy productive night (hopefully) for lots of us!

Happy humping !WinkWink love it!!

Thanks for the tip about temps tee.. Mine is still up** when I checked this morning. Dipped yesterday but 0.4 up today. My graph is a bit all over the place and worried my temp will be going off the scale if it continues to rise! :)

Neighbour of mine just had baby and I had to play it cool when I saw her but was secretly eyeing up her new icandy peach and baby changing bag. She probably thought I was showing far too much interest of such things!! Hmm.

Oh no radders! Really?? That's awful. Maybe see in a few more days? Do u feel ok? Any bleeding?? Would u bleed if chemical?

Jod1985 · 22/04/2016 18:07

footprints it's 4.5 weeks since coil out. I'm still a bit confused about it all as I def had positive tests but maybe they were false positives. How long does it take to start bleeding if it was a chemical?

raddersmrs · 22/04/2016 18:07

Eventually a period should show yea.

We definitely weren't seeing things with a line. There was 100% one there.

Didn't think it was right when it wasn't getting darker.

I feel OK in myself. I've still got lots of CM

Just now feel pretty upset and numb and just not very nice

Jod1985 · 22/04/2016 18:10

Radders I'm sorry I just seen your comment!
I'm shocked! Maybe wait a few more days and test? I know I had positives too on FRER and then nothing. To be honest I dunno if I trust them now.

Footprints1 · 22/04/2016 18:11

I just looked it up and it would almost happen straight away or within 24 hours. Will be streaks of mucus with blood which develops into full AF type bleeding. So girls you haven't had that. Maybe just still early?

So sorry if it is... :(( xx

Footprints1 · 22/04/2016 18:14

Jod- that's still not long. My first pregnancy didn't show up on tests until I was 5 weeks past my last period.
