April bus

[stegosauruslady]

Hello everyone!

Starting an April thread because I couldn't see one yet.

I'm 33 (for another week!)
TTC baby number 4
Cycle 3
CD 3
BFP due 11/04

AF is nearly over here, I'll actually be fertile when DP is off work this month which helps. If I get my BFP this month I'll be due in the middle of December.

I'm invoking Murphy's law this month. I'm bound to get a BFP the week before we go for a child free week's holiday right?

eek @chel1888 HOW exciting and torturous - vicariously on tenterhooks for you! huge congrats now you're out of doubt @applesauce1 very good news for April!

hi @Mimilicious13 good to see you! 5dpo here. Feeling a bit pissy and woe is me; back aches like a btch but after another day of moving sodding our whole lives in boxes is no surprise. No other symptoms cries* although last month I had tonnes and AF arrived on time to the minute so feeling very dubious about progesterone now. DH lov-ing life with me 🙄 how are you and where are you at? xx

@applesauce1 haha so very chic we are.
Ooh I always get rather merry at every function so I really think it would be so obvious if I wasn’t drinking and I’d have to buy drinks and hold them and throw alcohol away secretly so people think Iv drunk it and act merry hahaha.

@passtheaftereights thanks it’s rather confusing. With my first I had really strong positives come up straight away that’s why these ones are baffling me.

l see the start of something @chel1888 , excited for you. will you be testing again today? fx fx.
l am impressed you got to dtd lots under so much pressure @Passtheaftereights .sorry for the backache, hope you can put your feet up and rest for a bit.

oh @flyingplum hope your cramps won't lead to af. I have joined you, with cramps and I am only 10dpo. l am really not liking it. a bit of pinkish cm too when I went to investigate.

@applesauce, keep us updated with all your symptoms hun. really love the early pregnancy symptoms.

@FingersXssd Yep, our first! I’ve just turned 30 and whilst I know I’m still relatively young, when we started, I’d just assumed it’d def happen before I was 30. Your first too?

@Owlpatrol
@bubblybrit
@xleanne

How are you ladies getting on?

Felt really sick today and had an awful headache and had a few twinges. But could just be going insane!! How are you x

@Mimilicious013 thanks mate. I should be about 14dpo tomorrow so will test on Tuesday morning if she doesn't visit tonight or tomorrow. Last month i waited until 14 dpo but got both BFN and period pains in the same day. Going to make myself wait until I'm deffo late. And given how massive my boobs have gone this month I'm weirdly quite going to appreciate AF this month I think...

@LookingAtTheStars89. I am due to test on Thursday if af doesn’t arrive by then! I’m been feeling really tired and sometimes quite nauseous after eating. However things have been hectic at work and at home so trying to not read too much into it. How’s you? X

Hey hun @LookingAtTheStars89 not too bad waiting for a positive opk currently on cd12 so should do today or tomorrow. How about you? I've got doctor in the morning to start tests x

Caved. Couldn't resist when I got home and remembered I had a spare boots one from last month. Stupid plum...diluted wee, and now have wasted my only test on a BFN that is probably right, but I will worry on it all day tomorrow if AF doesn't turn up. Muppet.

Good luck tomorrow @owlpatrol. Hope everything goes well at the doctors x

@flyingplum. I’ve been sitting on my hands all day to try and stop me testing! Have one FRER which I am adamant that I am keeping if af doesn’t raise her head on Thursday!!

@bubblybrit oooh fx for Thursday! Xx

@owlpatrol. Good luck :-) I'm on cd10, no idea if or when I will ovulate this cycle lol. I have a gynae appointment at the end of the month so fingers crossed they can help.

@bubblybrit. Ah fingers crossed for you! I get every symptom under the sun before my period - nausea/insomnia/fatigue - everything except sore boobs! When I have sore boobs THEN I will know I'm pregnant lol. We are putting too much pressure on dtd this month, we've only done it once so far. Doing it every other day was just too much when I had no idea when ov was.

Eek, good luck to those taking tests over the next couple of days! I'm due AF on Saturday, and am feeling cranky, and getting my usual little pimples so not holding out a lot of hope this month.

Have had a ridiculous dull ache in my lower abdomen since ovulating though which is doing my head in, it's not normal for me and certainly isn't anything like implantation as it's been every single day so wondering if hormones are just raging more than usual for some reason. All fun and games this TTC huh?!

Thanks @owlpatrol. I’ll keep you posted. Would be a lovely birthday present for me. Trying to tell myself that I won’t be too disappointed if it’s a bfn as have a city break planned with my mate end April so would be able to have a few cocktails.....who am I kidding....would still rather get a BFP!! X

@LookingAtTheStars89. Yeah I’m trying not to be a symptom spotter as it could just be a sign that af is on her way! Said to DH that I was feeling nauseous but he doesn’t want to know as doesn’t want false hope! So holding off until Thursday and then we shall know one way or the other! Yip dtd every other day just isn’t sustainable. I tried last cycle and then lost all motivation half way through! Xx

@LookingAtTheStars89 yeah we've only dtd once this fw but not had a positive opk yet so not too worried. We did a massive walk today so totally knackered anyway!

Im out guys a light af is here. I won’t be on the next couple of trains either as myself and my stepson are long suffering January babies and I couldn’t do that to him he already doesn’t get enough around his birthday without adding another sibling into that to share with lol good luck everyone

I’m so gutted :( epecially with having to have the break

Good luck to all those testing in the next few days. I've been a bit of a lurker for a while but noticing some very familiar names.
Patiently (not patiently!) waiting for AF after ERPC and now been 4 weeks since the EPRC. Hoping for some good luck later this week.
Baby dust to all 💕

*month! Although this week would be better!

@Chel1888 maybe test again in a day or 2 as that test def had a faint line. You never know!

Definitely af here so must have been a vap line

@chel1888, sorry lovely for af .it is such a bummer you will have to take a break. I am a January baby too and I hate that everyone will be so broke when it's my birthday. best of luck in the future.
