Egg hunters vs the virgin wife - find the BFP - TTC bus 36

[Minster2012]

Ok so we need to get back to us ladies, back to fun games, POAS & getting fit, but you need to help me Cos Minster is flagging with a fuck boy body worse than the rest 🥺

Guess what...it’s nearly Easter & know what that means! 🐰🐣...We don’t want the 🐰to have the fun but bloody hell sometimes it’s a f*cling egg hunt all right 🙈🤣.

March and April we’ve got a lot of exciting times ahead with people going for Clomid & IVF as well as a lot of straight up sex for the “normal” TTC gang so let’s get shagging & FIND THOSE 🐣🌈.

We are still working on our spring challenges alongside trying to get pregnant and we’ve had great results so far- feel free to have a catch up on those and add your own.

And we are still helping each other get fitter, more positive through sharing small changes we are making in our lives and trying to inspire & support each other with these too...as well as of course being there for each other during the sad times.

And if you see mention of my blog then blame these guys they made me do it...#shamelessplug

@Minster2012 we'll catch you whenever you fall as you've done so many times for us!

Right, laughter is what we need. Everyone's first message must be an embarrassing story. Go go go!

Mine- my first bf (the cherry popper) decided to write me a poem to immortalise our first time. Naturally my dad found it and proceeded to yell at me because what 15 year old girl does that! He still winds me up with quotes from said poem 12 years later...

[Franklydear]

Heeello Queens
I think I just have a cold, thanks ds, so feel pretty rubbish
Happy to find so many metalheads though
@Minster2012 chin up, and look at the little positives, listen to some Metallica 😜🤘

[Amy00]

My embarrassing story - and warning to anyone feeling sick - is when I stayed over at my sisters a few years ago and we had many wines 🍷 followed by margaritas 🍸 at which point it was bedtime. I was staying in my little nephew's newly decorated bedroom, woke up an hour or so later needing to vom 🤢 didn't make it even out of the bed, I proceeded to throw up red wine all over the bed, it went up the walls 😩 HOW I don't know. In my drunken haze I decided I would try to clean the situation up myself and put all the bedding in the washing machine, without rinsing it first. When my sister got up in the morning somehow fresh as a daisy she found gross damp crusty sheets in the washing machine. They had to try and clean the mattress, walls scrubbed down. It makes me so cringe to think about it. We do laugh about it now but also I wasn't invited to stay again for a very long time 😂😭😳🤢

[Franklydear]

Embarrassing memory, still raging from last week work uniform malfunction, for those who don't remember, trousers split at the leg inside seam and had to send a boy to buy needle and thread to fix it 🤣😲😢

[Amy00]

In less cringe news, I had my vaccine last week 🥳 BUT it has delayed ovulation by 3 days and counting 👎 - no sign of it on the OPKs. Had anyone else had this? Hoping it will just delay things a bit and I'll still ov this cycle 😬 @Sausage1990 did anything untoward happen with your cycle and the vaccine?

[Franklydear]

@Amy00 I had it at what I thought was 5 dpo, af arrived early, maybe shortened my lutheal fase or messed with implantation, who knows, and this cycle I can't be bothered to track, a bit disheartened

[Franklydear]

Listening to for whom the bell tolls for cheering up😂

[Kirky658]

Oooo.. Embarrassing story time. I was 18 with my first boyfriend, we were getting hot and heavy and I realised my phone was underneath me and had dialled my mum.... Woops!!!!!

[larrythelizard]

I called someone an idiot on an email and sent it to them...that took some explaining to attempt to get out of!!

Im taking a quiet seat on the top deck, still struggling with headaches and tiredness so keeping up will be a challenge for me!

Need to cancel acupuncture for next week and rebook AMH and progesterone tests for April - initial neurologist appt booked through so I think that's the more important one for now!

Come on you lot, I want a whole flood of March BFPs please!!

[Crazydoglady123]

Mine isn't a raunchy one (sorry) but when I was in primary school in year 6 our teachers took us out to the school field and got us all to through a ball as far as we could. Out of all the girls I threw it the furthest and so got picked for shotput for a county schools tournament. On the day I just froze and threw it about a meter in front of me. They took pity on me and let me have another go but I did it again 🤣🙈

Thanks for my seat @Minster2012

[Dollybird89]

Before I met my lovely OH i met someone online and called in to see him at work (post office in a corner shop ) We got chatting and next thing he closed the shop and we got freaky behind the counter . Only to be interrupted by a customer knocking on the door. He shut me in the cellar door until they had gone 😳 there was security cameras too.!! Needless to say it didn't work out and glad too as he had a tiny 🍆🤦‍♀️🤣

How long have you lovely ladies been with your OH? It's 16months today for me (first time we met it was like we had known each other years!) Still not 1 argument ☺

Thank you to the lovely bus driver @minster2012 even though your having a tough time you keep driving and keep all us going! Sending lots of Love your way xxx

[Franklydear]

@Dollybird89 22 year anniversary next week 😲

[Justanothercyster]

Cracking up with these stories!
@Amy00 eeeeek!

@Dollybird89 aww! We've been together for 9.5 years x

[paintfairy]

@Franklydear the bee gees? 🤣 cheery. I love them though!

I think I blank most of my embarrassing stories out. I reckon there's loads if I sit and really think. Best not to.
But - when I first met my other half it was through friends. We kind of only saw each other with them initially. The second time we both stayed over at their house together (they had 2 spare rooms) i was pretty drunk, it was freezing and I got in his bed in his room with him (friends had gone to bed before us). One thing lead to another (i will point out I'd been single ages and clearly deprived), as it does. I knew I'd not get any sleep really with him there (I never do with new people) and I also thought I'd be really clever and go back to my own bed, so that on waking our friends wouldn't know as I'd be in my own room. Perfect crime.
Got up the next morning and i didn't really look at him as he was getting ready to come downstairs and I went out with my friend to let her horses out.
Once in the car she quizzed me and she was like- omg, have you seen his neck? I was like- what? No? What do you mean? And she said he's got love bites so over it! I was slightly embarrassed (literally that's not something I usually do) but thought it was funny. When we got back to the house he was stood side on. I thought- ok it's not ideal but it's not that bad. Until he turned the other way! 🙈🙈🙈🤣 OMG. It was horrendous. They questioned if I was a vampire. I assured them I was not. 🤣 He was meant to be going to his family's for Sunday dinner, but had to cancel as he couldn't go looking like that! 😆
I always wonder if he thought I was dull once he got to know me, because I'm really not usually that forceful. 🤣

[blackcurrantqueen]

Thank you to our beautiful fantastic funny brilliant bus driver. You are a superstar and you deserve the world @Minster2012 😘

Will be back with embarrassing stories once I've stopped being terrorised by DD!

[HappyMrsR]

Hope everyone is well.

[notyetamumbuttrying]

I'll have to come bk on the embarrassing story and think of a good one for you all!
I said it on the last bus whilst filling it up with memes but @Minster2012 in case you didn't see it, I'm sorry you didn't get your miracle but I'm glad you can now start again and are out of limbo 😘

[Asthenia]

Taking my seat on the bus!
Missed the last few messages of the previous thread but love a good embarrassing moment. For some reason I fall over in public constantly so have lots of those but most recently was last year when I ordered some love honey treats to my parents house by accident (old address automatically loaded). My dad accidentally opened the box thinking it was something he had ordered. Cue a phone call from my mum half horrified half pissing herself. The box of goodies included a butt plug I don’t know why but that’s so much more embarrassing to me than a good old fashioned dildo
Still go all cold with mortification whenever I think about it!
