For those of us who prefer a bit of scenery along the way and can't keep up with the MEGA-BUS!

I was on previous buses with Treaclepie & I have to say she is a lovely kind lady.

DizzyMerry · 10/04/2015 22:50

Laura it's hilarious that you pretend to be asleep!!! I should try that but I think I'd end up giggling!

laurasdream · 10/04/2015 22:53

DizzyM I have it down to a fine art Grin hehe

Woolly84 · 10/04/2015 22:55

Hi laura! I'm good thanks lovely Smile feeling much better now, it was just one of those days! Yes hoping for a static tomo! How are you?

Woolly I am glad that you are feeling better! Nothing worse than stress at work! What cycle day are you? I am 6dpo today & I am just praying that I get to 11dpo without AF! A BFP would be a bonus of course & what I really want, but I just need my lp to behave in order for that to happen x

Haha I love the minion pics laura! Grin
I'm CD11 today, on my high fertility days so dtding a lot! I hope you get to 11dpo without AF and preferably with a BFP not long after!! Smile
Hope the wait isn't too bad, it's strange to think that there was a time I didn't think about cycles/ovulation etc before beginning TTC!

MalibuDaisy · 10/04/2015 23:24

Thanks to all the ladies who have been lovely/chatty/good fun on here.

I'm jumping off the buses now. I'll still be on the forums.

I started feeling uncomfortable the other day with the treatment Tallulah received. Some of it was downright snarky. The other lady who posted today might have been blunt, but she sort of had a point.

Last month I was new to the buses, found them hard to follow, and didn't have a clue about the general dislike for only posting a few times then putting up a BFP - had I been lucky enough to get one I'd possibly have done the same as Tallulah, and I'd have been absolutely gutted to read those sorts of responses.

I hope that I get to chat with you all on other posts x

Woolly84 · 10/04/2015 23:29

Oh malibu Sad

laurasdream · 10/04/2015 23:30

Woolly I love the minions! They make me smile! haha Grin I am a big child at heart You are so lucky you ovulate nice & early! Fx this is your month! When I conceived my DS I was 20 & didn't have a clue about cycles, other than if you didn't get your period then you were pregnant! I definitely never heard of OPK's or temping! Fx all this TTC malarkey will soon become a distant memory! Saying that I feel I have learnt a lot & I feel like I am a stronger, more understanding person Flowers! My DH may say otherwise Grin!!

purdiepie · 10/04/2015 23:43

I'll tell you what's snarky: a woman who has never been on these threads coming on only to post about her BFP. It is very poor form and shows an utter lack of tact. That is all any of us have wanted to get across. We are a mutually supportive network of women trying to get pregnant, that is all.

Woolly84 · 10/04/2015 23:47

malibu I'm really sorry to see you go, but wish all the best for a speedy BFP lovely FlowersSmile we'll miss you xx

laura you're a girl after my own heart, I love the minions too, they're hilarious! Grin I love their cover of "I Swear" haha. Ah it must have been nice not to have to think too much about TTC with your DS! That's great you feel stronger for it though, I'm learning to relax about it a bit more, I'm a naturally stressy person so very prone to overthinking these things!!

Woolly84 · 10/04/2015 23:50

Agree purdie, I think all that's been asked for is some tact and sensitivity, it's a shame it's been misinterpreted.

Eek u guys. I used to be on the buses and this kind of dissing never happened. I wouldn't Normally post but do u not thunk someone who has struggled getting a bfp after 8 miscarriages is a positive post to say ooh look it can happen again after such heartbreak? That is not a lpd just coming on waving a bfp in your faces but someone who has been through struggles just like the rest of u and is sending u encouragement that it can happen.

I feel sad about the responses people get. I'm sorry to intrude like this And I wish u all.the luck.

Like someone said earlier, if they get a bfp then they want to stay on cheer people on and that is what quite a few of us still do to support the people we were on buses with so u will get people u might not recognise popping up but they shouldn't be made to feel uncomfortable about that.

Dozygirl · 11/04/2015 00:38

Sorry for the typos, typing too fast. I can spell so please don't also call me on that!

bellaboo88 · 11/04/2015 01:47

Sorry purdey if my awful spelling has offended you! If you could be as kind to check the stats list on the threads from this time last year you will see I'm on them :) I too love to check back for old friends who have supported me on my journey

Illiria · 11/04/2015 02:16

Yeah I'm out of here too. Been on the buses for around a year and pretty much since the bumsnet split I have personally felt uncomfortable by the vindictiveness of some posts. I used to only post a couple of times a week due to other forums that I helped on - non ttc related. If I had gotten my BFP then I know treacle and the others would have been supportive, now I'm not so sure I would get that. I had hoped that it would mean those that didn't want to encounter those who post sporadically then post a bfp could have their own space with clearly defined rules on the bumsnet series of threads but this has not happened and their rules have come to the monthly posts. I hope you all get your BFPs and have a healthy and happy pregnancy.

laurasdream · 11/04/2015 02:42

Just saying...

At the end of the day all that matters is that we get a BFP & we feel supported along the way. I thought that was what the buses were about. That's why I joined.

It really shouldn't matter how long it takes someone to get a BFP. We should all be happy when someone does. Don't we want people to be happy for us when we get our BFP? Of course we do!

I too felt uncomfortable.

woodpigeon123 · 11/04/2015 03:14

Ooh, laurasdream, that would be amazing! Thank you for looking! xx

coffeenut · 11/04/2015 05:09

Please dont leave malibu and illiria or anyone else, we will miss you too much.

The nastiness on here is not fucking on. Please can we try to be nice to everyone on this thread (maybe if you dont like a post, just ignore it). You never really know what others go through & everyone on here needs support.

coffeenut · 11/04/2015 06:15

laura these are for you, you sound like such a lovely person. Have all my fingers crossed that you get your bfp in a week or so!!

thanks also to all the amazing ladies who make this bus so positive x

coffeenut · 11/04/2015 06:15

Laura these Flowers !!
