Anyone else counting down to April 1st?

I was away for the weekend when I noticed I had a bit of ovary type pain, so as soon as I got home I took an OPK and it was very positive. We DTD right away, but later that evening the OPK was much lighter so I do think it would have been better if we'd done it a day or 2 before at least!
 
Haha! I just want my first baby right now. I think we'll take it one kid at a time :P lol!
Monday testing, umm.. FMU means early on Monday. But with the time differences we will all be testing at separate times.. here's hoping for all BFPs!

I almost bought HPTs today but resisted. If they're in my bathroom, there's no way to stop. :D
 
Yeah it's hard to know with that kind of timing - if you get the ovary pain and that means that's exactly when the egg is being released, and the egg only survives for 12ish hours, and someone else on the board was telling me it takes the sperm 12 hours to get to the fallopian tubes and to get set up and ready to go... you still might get it but it would be tight!
 
sadako - So sorry that AF showed :( Where you tracking ovulation or just going with the flow? I hope the fertilaid helps you out....just remember, it takes time to work so try to be patient!

kell - My SIL is on her 7th and my BIL has 5, so big families are not out of the norm for me. We are working on number 4 but ARE stopping afterwards :) 4 is plenty enough for me!

mom2sam - We are getting closer! I almost forgot to pack my FRER's! They are packed now :) I'm all set for Monday morning!

Il be happy with 3 or 4 too hehe, as I'm guessin oh will want 3 and that will b 4 for me lol.

What time is everyone testing on Monday? God knows how il resist the urge to test on Sunday haha but I'm just gonna tell myself if I want my bfp then I have to wait til Monday lol

I hope my temp goes back above cover line tomorrow I'm so confused with this morning temp being such a small rise, surely if it was implantation dip it should have gone straight back over the cover line. I think if it goes down again tomorrow il count myself out lol.

Iv decided for Aprils cycle il make a lot more effort... My oh is not very good at night he drops asleep to quick lol and he generally wakes about 6am lol so wen I wake to temp at 7 il try stay awake even if it's only every other day lol

Lol mine said if we hvnt got it ths month next month it's everyday til after ovulation! I said no thankyou. Was hard enough eod following smep it gt so boring towards end i remember aftr dtd i was thnkng to myself it dont happen quick it might hv t go bk t once a week as prior t ttc! Lol

I usually wake up to get DS ready for school & thn drop hm & dh to school & wrk so i might pee & leave it & do test once i get bk i hate wen DH stands outside bathroom saying has it shown, are u, is it not? Arghh he mkes me more nervous i'd rather not tel hm im testing & do it whilst he isnt thr x
 
For me making sure oh ain't there ain't a problem, we don't live together at mo, he's in the process of gettin a mortgage, should b all sorted within a month lol but I said Aprils gonna be our month since we have a whole wk n half together :-) and it's perfect timing going off FF lol so i won't b too down hearted if it's bfn this time cause I have that to look forward to.
 
My understanding...Your body only produces hcg if implantation has occurred. Implantation is what starts making the hormone. When you get even a faint line you consider it positive. (I had a friend who did not realize this she took a handful of tests when her period was late...thought negative. I never saw her tests and sent her a picture of my positives....she had positive tests for a while and didn't know)

That being said, if your like me and test before your missed period you can catch it sooner. Lol tests today are really sensitive. With my pregnancy that ended in MC my dr office tried to rationalize at first I ovulated several days later than what I thought. It wasn't possible, they thought measured small for the dpo I was and pushed it back four days, next time pushed it back three days. I told them there is no way I picked up a positive at like 2dpo. Obviously it was because it wasn't progressing.

Also run the risk of detecting and early mc, where if you had waited till after your missed period you may not of known. And faintness of lines depends on how much hcg in system and how dilute your urine is. Apparently tests today go to mich lower levels.

As for me I will probably test tomorrow! It's only a day away!


Yup Diddy you're right, implantation = hCG = positive test. Usually implantation is day 8 or 9, so getting a positive result before day ten ish is kinda hard... plus yea, you could end up losing it really early on, I'm going to wait until April 1 or 2 (2 is when AF is due) to test, I'd rather just get a negative or AF Bryan get a positive then realize I'd lost it!
 
I have officially made it to 13 dpo with not a single speck of spotting. I feel quite symptomless except for bloating and gas. I do not have any sharp cramps distinct of AF. I am still worries though AF will come any second.and.still could today or tomorrow out of.nowhere and be considered on time :/ so I am not getting too excited yet. My best signs are my chart and the no spotting. I would have def expected spotting by now and cramps... but my AF can be truly evil and show up out of nowhere even with no pms symptoms
 
How was your temp today sirouseman? Iv sent u a friend request on FF lol figured I'd add u while I was lookin had to scroll back through the thread to find ur chart lol I don't mind if anyone wants to add me too
 
I am on day 29 of my cycle right now and I have only had maybe 3 other cycles in years time to be as short as 29. Most are 30 to 34 days long. So, I am going back to compare my older charts and see what those other 29 days ones were like... I stopped temping at 9 or 10 dpo so I would assume it is still high if I have no spotting yet? My cycles are shorter now slightly because maca has regulated them. I used to have long irregular ones from 30-39, and O rarely ever happened before day 20. But for the last 2 or 3 cycles I have had 29/30 day cycles so I don't know.... AF could come at any moment :(

I have been for quite a while never knew when I ovulated or even af was due but recently my af has always come on the 31st or the 1st. This cycle was the first time I pinpointed ovulation and I'm thankfull to soy isoflavones for that since it made it stronger- I felt things two days before n then on cd 19 I had my dip n then rise on cd 20 which confirmed it.
 
I hav never temped but i thnk if nothing happens in next 3/4 cycles i will start as need to knw if i'm still laying eggs x

Today i'v had some more cramping i do usually get it before af so obv it's makin me a little nervous x

Sirouseman no spotting is definitely a good sign x
 
Hey ladies :) thank you!

I am indeed working on number 6 :haha: I get broody far too easily lol

Welcome Kell glad u could join us. I'm trying so hard not to test & i'm only 6dpo lol!

Ladies why hv we started counting ourselves out already i think as times getting closer were getting nervous lol no ones out i say temps down or feeling too happy instead of emotional. Were all getting our bfp one way or another! N hopefully ths month... Erm i thnk i'm more nervous than anyone lol dH kps saying wen r u testing i said end of next week hate hm asking everyday i knw he just excited but i feel under pressure then like my pee has to prove something! Ha x

Logical me knows (hopes) your right, illogical me worries about another mc.
 
Sadako - bummer :( But it does sound like things are evening out which is great!

SIX! I'll see how I feel after one. We have been doing up budgets for working out if we can afford to buy a house and I was being conservative and including two kids in day care in the budget and my husband was like 'well that will be a few years away yet!' and I just looked at him and pointed at my stomach and said "What if it's twins right now?! That's two kids in daycare in 12 months!' and he went a bit pale. :lol:

I told my husband before we had kids I wanted to buy a house and run a marathon. Both were completed in 2012!!! The having the kid part is at 16 months (and counting) I like to have plans and organize things, but I never thought I would be baby-less after 16 months.

Twins would be interesting though lol, at this point I would take it even though I know it would be....busy. :)
