APRIL chit chat BOY swayers - All welcome

on my BFP cycle which was my 3rd TTC I just assumed that every twinge was AF on the way and I didn't have any HPT's in the house until the evening after AF was due ( usually comes at 6am in the morning like clockwork) and I went out to the shop to buy one and got my BFP as soon as I got home.

I think I was just so much more relaxed that cycle as the other cycles before that I had spent hours analysing every symptom and spent a fortune on tests.

Pearl I can't believe you are already 27 weeks!!

I really try not to be a symptom spotter or an early tester. I get different symptoms every month so I couldn't even guess. The 2ww is horrible!

I think the BFP after AF is due is the best surprise, its happened to me with both of mine, i was completely floored and so so happy to see the line. The early testing and BFNs did my head in and made me depressed.

I so agree with you on that one cinns!! It was the same for me with my DD, I was still sat on the toilet as i was half asleep and didnt expect it to be anything just a false alarm, I was few days late with AF, then seeing that BFP made my jaw drop lol in total shock but over course overwhelmed with happiness!

I think ill be doing the same this time round wait for my AF..

Time is really flying. I have quite a bump on me now and only 8 weeks left in work before I finish up until mid May 14. I am so excited to meet this little guy.

So I'm pretty sure I'm out. I have major af symptoms and negative hpt. I am not normally an early tester but I'm crazy this time around. It was negative at 10 or 11 dpo which is not good. Can everyone share their best baby making tips? I dtd 3 times within 24 hours after positive opk, took mucinex from cycle day 7, epo, heating pad, laid down for awhile after dtd. I'm on HE and we're both on supplements. Any other tips? I haven't been trying long but don't want to try much longer! Oh an dh and I both lift weights and I run for 30 min every other day.

Have you tried Preseed?

[KikiCal]

Oh yeah. I used pressed and I even used the applicators. With dd I didn't use the applicators because I thought they were weird. I guess I just have to respect that you can do everything right (or close to right) and still not get pregnant.

I may not be the best one to give advice on this because it took me 10 months to get my BFP. But there was another lady trying at the same time as me and it was taking her a long time too, the cycle she fell pregnant she said she lay on her stomach after DTD, turns out her cervix or pelvis was tilted so it made it easier for the sperm to get in the right place.

I dont think there is anyting else you can do, every fertile couple only has something like a 25% chance of falling pregnant each cycle (boo) and it is not uncommon for fertile couples to tke up to 1 year to concieve, so i think if you get knocked up quickly you are a lucky one.

Hi Ladies, it is time for us to make our attempts!!!!!!!...got my smiley face today around 11am. We BD'd at 12pm (lunch date ) but would like to get 2 more attempts in in the next 24 hours. Just not sure when we should BD the next 2 times. Any ideas for us? Should we wait 12 hours from first BD (12am midnight attempt), or is tonight before bed ok and then again tomorrow morning? Or should we do midnight and then 12pm tomorrow for 3 spaced out 12 hours each. HELP! I want to get preg so, so badly this month. Prior to today we were just BD every other day once AF ended.
