@LBee2020 that used to be me getting covered carrying doggo upstairs then downstairs to dry him scoping wet to utility room & then taking same amount of time to clean the bathroom down too so I was like A HA!! We clean boots down in it too (& small toddler & also 6'6" husband decontaminated everyday during lockdown when I was shielding with toddler) that was the funniest as he had to couch under the washing thing but none of us got ill, he then put his clothes in the washer it worked brilliantly 🥰🙌🏻.

@Ladybird345 let's hope it is implantation 🤞🏻❤️

@Mosherchick "my uterus is really trying" brilliant. 😂trying as in good or TRYING as in being a trying little bitch???

@AlexandraB2021 welcome to the bus 🚌

@Runnergirl1 you get running on that 🍆🍆girlllllll whoop whoop for static!! Sexy pic done, love it. So pizza & choc too right??? And thank you lovely!

Btw there were like 10 more questions of that
sex quiz 😂so much more learning for us!

@Gem176 hey I think a longer age gap will be great, just think how much your DC will be able to help??? Amazing! And dr google ain't no body's friend 😂

@lucyrp I totally want to know which kitchen firm now?? DH used to work for a big kitchen firm & they were brilliant

@Hrps welcome!! Lovely first post, it's such a hard journey all of us love having each other so feel free to whinge, rant & there ain't no such thing as TMI. Gotta say though I read your name as "herps" which no one wants 😂especially not when TTC

@Clairey844 ooooo hopefully it's your lucky one

@Minster2012 it was howdens. load of twats🤣

also girls i have felt so roufh the past couple of days. feeling sick, cramping and headaches like no other. when am i gonna get a break 😫

@lucyrp OMG DH used to work for howdens and it was cushhhhhhhy. In logistics then projects honestly it was the easiest job ever 😂but we were actually saying last night about it being a load of stupid ppl doing f all. We never won a bloody kitchen though! He was prob one of the twats for you!

What's with your body??? 😬🙄hoping its good???!!🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Minster2012 the job was fine because there was fuck all to do half the time and the builders were all lovely apart from when i had to ring them and shove offers down their throats! but the people i worked with were absolute twats. very clicky place and if your face didn't fit you were out. i actually got bullied and ended up signed off by the doctor for a month it got that bad. i never went back, i went back to my old job and i'm still here now 😂

yeah me too. i wish it would be something good but i'm not too sure 🙈

Welcome into the crazy bus @hrps they really are a mighty bunch. Loads of support, shoulders to cry on, and a good laugh at the same time.
Would be lost if I didnt have here to rant on

@2alreadywantanother thank you for the positivity! I'm sure it's AF but you never know 😊
Are you on a really long cycle? I think I get cramps the day before ovulation but I could also be a symptom spotter 😂
@Minster2012 thank you for the good thoughts! What dogs have you got? Love the doggy shower 🐶

@Minster2012 I'm not sure how much of a help she will be, we got her some hens and she was great at collecting eggs for about a week 🙄 they are my girls now 😂 I have a real bond with one, she's clucky so we're both desperate for babies 🙈

Hi I'm testing on 19th fingers crossed af hasn't arrived by then!

@ladybird345 no hun, I'd a mmc 4 wks ago. D&C 3 wks ago. So no idea what way things will go or when af is due.
They tell you to wait until 1st period before trying but inthink that's related to dating etc. But you can ovulate before it arrives. I'm 40 and have no time to waste lol just praying I'll fall pregnant as quickly as last time 🤞🤞

@2alreadywantanother yes I ovulated same day as peak 😁 very possible

@blodyn91 I really think I did. Fingers and toes crossed. Shall dtd over next few days and keep testing to be sure

@notyetamumbuttrying I'm not this month either 😂😂 let's just hope being born on the 19th of any month means this is our lucky bus 🤞🏻

@Minster2012 thanks 😘😘 🤞🏻

@2alreadywantanother I'm really sorry to hear that. Really wish you the best of luck with this cycle and fingers and toes crossed you get your BFP 🤞 Sorry shouldn't have asked about your cycle, I just noticed the cycle day numbers, hope I didn't upset you.

@lilacflower12 it is but surely that scene isn't one to cry at?? Ooo yess I'll have a watch of that!

@Ladybird345 ohhh no way!! Don't worry!! Treat yourself to some chocolate and gin and dust yourself off ready for the next cycle❤️

@Mosherchick aren't we emotional!! I hope it's for a good reason!! Hopefully it's nothing, not out until af shows up properly🤞🏼

@Gem176 well flo has always been more accurate up until now and the last 2 cycles premom was more accurate for ovulation than flo!! I'll let you know which one was right this time if af shows up because they're saying a different day!

@lucyrp hoping those are good signs🤞🏼🤞🏼

@ladybird345 dont be silly. If I couldn't talk about is esp here there would be something seriously wrong 💕

@Clairey844 here's hoping!! 😬 although I'm being realistic these days with our diagnosis. The more I speak to other women on the infertility threads, the more I wonder what the hell our drs are playing at! Some women have been told to go straight to ivf with better results than what my Dh got, yet we had to chase to even get referred, so bizarre!

@Gem176 your DD is clunky and desperate did babies or the hen 😂

@lucyrp that's fair enough! If you are happy now that's all that matters xx

Btw I will be testing in about ooooo I dunno last time we started in November it was feb 22nd 🤣😂

Oh my god the typos @Gem176 😂😂😳

@Minster2012 love that dog shower! We’ve always said when we have a house with a utility room again we’re putting one in. Right now it’s just a cold hose in the garden which she hates, but that’s what happens when you roll in cow shit 3 times a week 😒

When we get back I’m going to make fitted covers for the couch that I can machine wash regularly. Two border collies who bring the entire outdoors with them, and two cats 🤦‍♀️

I love that so many of us have dogs 😂 🐶

@Hrps 👋🏻 welcome! Lonely old business isn’t it. Where are you at with TTC so far? ☺️

We accidentally drove over a snow covered mountain today. Holiday in the sun going to plan, clearly 🤣

Marking my space! Not leaving just yet, don't know what's going to happen so I don't dare look into the pregnancy threads yet 😅. And I want to see you all get your bfps as well! So going to still lurk around here if you girls don't mind 😊

@Mrsbear1122 please stick around, we have a few pregnant ladies, they could post more to tell us how is going.... but hints aside, i think we can support each other through different stages.

@Hopeful110 I completely get what you mean about it being mentally draining. We're only on our second cycle and probably only actually the first based on what my last period was like compared to the two before that but I feel like I get so invested in each time, planning out the next year or longer of my life based on when baby would be due.

@Minister2012 so sorry to hear about your BFN. I can't imagine how hard it must be after everything you've been through.

@Gem176 @lucyrp my gap wouldnt be quite as big as yours but DD will now definitely be over 4 by the time we have another and either about to start school or already in school. Tbh this was one of my main considerations when trying 😂 to plan age gaps because I wanted to have the same time 1 to 1 with another baby as I had with her.

@2020mission I swear me not wanting any because it's cold is the only reason DH has put the heating on 😂

@Ladybird345 sorry to hear about AF. I think I'm probably in the same boat so I'm going to stock up on chocolate tomorrow.

@Mosherchick sorry to hear about the spotting. I think I've started spotting today too so looks like we both might be out. Maybe I'll add wine to that chocolate shopping list for tomorrow. 😭

So I decided to test on Wednesday morning but it was BFN. I thought maybe I could see a very very faint line but I think it was just wishful thinking. I had very faint pink staining when I wiped this afternoon so I think I might be out for this month. Either way Friday with my cousin is off the table since her area is on high alert so Covid has taken that off the table anyway. I think if AF hasn't properly turned up by Saturday morning that I'll test then but I wouldn't be surprised if AF is here in full force by the morning 😔

So my creamy CM has decreased over the course of the day but my nipples have got more sore and boobs more veiny?? I know nipple and boob soreness can be a sign of progesterone levels but does anyone know about veiny boobs? I don't even know why I'm asking because I just know af will show up next week😩

@Vil10 I’ve given up in spotting symptoms, well most of time, I now just wait for af, I will not trust it unless at least 3 days late
