April Bus

[Posharmchairs]

Never started a bus before.
I’m out for March as just got af and have long cycles.

Will be hoping for a bfp mid April.

Anyone want to hop aboard?

I’m ttc#2 cycle#4

Ds turning 2 this month so hoping to give him a sibling for Christmas 😁

@littletandme Huge congrats!!!

@Adrianoska It's awful, right? AF cramps are much easier! I'm glad it doesn't last long but really makes it awkward DTD which isn't great :-(

I haven't thought about baby aspirin but every little helps right. Not that I'd be able to buy any right now probably :-(

Huge congratulations @littletandme how many DPO are you?

@Florence13 thank you! 11dpo today so still early days.

Yay congrats @littletandme I'm a day behind and my FRER are coming tomorrow!

@littletandme aaah congrats! I'll make sure to follow your DTD pattern 😂. Is this your first time TTC btw or do you already have kids?

@littletandme aww well massive congratulations but to have such a good line at 11dpo is brill. I'm 10dpo today desperately trying to tell myself to wait until af due. Are you having any symptoms?

@Juno231 we have a little girl who is 2.5 :) so we would have a 3y4m gap

@littletandme so pleased for you! and who’d have thought you’d manage during that holiday with the in laws 😆

@Florence13 no symptoms at all yet. My only symptom with DD was sore boobs from 12dpo and nausea and tiredness in the first trimester. No actual morning sickness though so I hope I'm as lucky this time!

@littletandme yes!! Congratulations! 🥳

I'm 8DPO and had some dark brown spotting for a few hours yesterday so hoping that's a good sign 🤞🏻

@littletandme congratulations!!!

Last minute decision here was to skip this month and see where we are at next month. OH is worried about security of work etc now even though we had initially decided to crack on anyway but never mind. Looks like we might be on hold for a few months at this rate.

@karenkeys I know, I jokingly said we'd call the baby Lanzarote Lockdown... now I feel "Locky" may stick as a nickname for bump 😂

@littletandme that’s wonderful news! Congratulations!! 😃

@littletandme Haha you should keep the nickname 😃

Have you been using FRERs only for testing so far? Just wondered if you’ve found the cheapies to be as accurate. Hope you will stick around and keep us updated on how the line and pregnancy progresses. It’s great to have some good news here!

@karenkeys I realised I only had one cheapie left and I used it at 9dpo so yes I've used three FRERs and getting more delivered today. I had constant evap lines on cheapies last month so I would rather use FRERs as they've never given me evaps.

@littletandme ahh yeah I forgot that was happening to you last cycle, so annoying! I’ve got a new pack of 2 FRERs that I bought weeks ago but since the completely blank FRER on Friday and blank internet cheapies on Saturday and this morning, I’m going to assume I’m out this month and save the FRERs for the next month of TTC. I’ve bought some condoms on amazon today for the next couple of months while were taking a break. It seems every time I buy a box of FRERs AF arrives within a day so hoping the opposite will happen with the condoms purchase 😂 unlikely though

@ApplePie86 yes you’re right! My first month of inositol so don’t think it’s been long enough for me to see any benefits yet.

I’m confused with when I’ve actually ovulated as my LH tests where high/peak for three days. See my photo 🤷‍♀️ But I did have a very mild period type ache on my right side for a good few hours Friday morning. But would that not be too early for ovulation if I had a peak that morning and then next day? I had a bit of a temp rise Friday and then again yesterday and sameish again today. I feel like a detective trying to figure it out 😂

We’ve BD Thursday, Friday and yesterday, so not if I got in early enough or if it’s worth it again today?

@littletandme ah that’s so great to see 🥰 congratulations x

Ooops. Forgot these!

Congratulations @littletandme!

I’m testing Easter Sunday (if I can wait that long..) hoping - though slightly nervous - for some Easter magic!

@OrangeJ Last cycle I got my positive OPK and pains at the same time (I only tested because of the pains) then this cycle, peak OPK the day before pains. So I don't think it's a problem and I reckon we both should've caught the right days for BDing :-)

Last cycle I only had 10 day luteal phase which I guess is on the shorter side. I have no plans of actually testing until I know there's a very very good chance of it being positive (will probably wait 3 weeks or something). Can't be doing with the stress of thinking "is this a line?" Or "is it too early?"

Congratulations @littletandme that’s Great news!

Oooh ok. All sounds good 😬 @ApplePie86 I totally agree with you and can’t deal with looking for a faint line again. Although I have no idea how long my luteal phase is as this is my first cycle properly tracking. I think I test two weeks from today and I am pg the line should be really dark! 🤞 I will probably end up testing early though as I have zero willpower! 🙈

Hi @ApplePie86 and @Adrianoska I’m in the same boat as you two. Got a smiley face in my OPK yesterday, DTD Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and will probably try again later today. I had cramp pains Friday and Sat but am fine today so have I already ovulated? Now I’m worried about doing it too much if you think it effect implantation.
