Heading for 💓day with fishy burps & wombs as fluffy as a 70’s bush we say UP YOURS TTC Bus 30

We’ve got the fastest TTC 🚌in the UK & we aren’t afraid of a modification or 2 as we have a bus with a beautiful panoramic roof seat where there is wine & snacks a plenty for those that need a bit of a breather from our race car but still hang on to our ride! 🌞

We are heading into February ladies & let’s be honest most of us thought we’ve have cute little babies by now, but instead we’ve got lockdown bellies, fishy burps 🐠from bloody omega 3 supplements & the BIGGEST STASH OF TTC drugs in the planet on this bus including IVF, TTC, vitamins, headaches, anti sickness for pregnancy & some other ones we won’t talk about. We also LOVE a good snack, a pet, a dildo and clit sucker but badly behaved BOSSES are NOT welcome.

So grab your crotchless panties and not much else for Valentine’s Day 💓and invite your men (or women folk) to dinner cos they are being treated like a REAL LADY. Forget January blues. February is where it’s at and we say UP YOURS TTC, we are cumming to get you 🙌🏻🥰

@Juno231 to try to reassure you when we did my first embryo making they told me to expect failure as my AMH was 2.1 instead of the 15-20 it should have been for my age. We got 4 eggs, 3 fertilised successfully & because only 2 embryos that's why they froze at day 2. One was transferred to best friend 7 months later & became X, the other one is the one we are using on Thursday. So please try not to worry! Quality not quantity. The ones we then got later we got 2 day 5s, those ones we used in 2020. But I'd had more chemo/immunotherapy by that time.

I've defluffed the foof, cos you know, we need to get our sex in before we can't after Thursday & ppl are gonna be looking at my foof!!

@minster2012 gotta love the tannoy! Title for next bus "announcing bfps on tannoy, TV recommendations and IVF road maps" lol. You just reminded me i will have to de floof and shave my legs, oh god

So haven't heard back from them yet, might just be busy, but if they don't reply probably tells me all I need to know about them as an employer doesn't it 😊

Juno231 · 01/02/2021 16:42

@Minster2012 that's amazing - thank you for saying that! Luckily the clinic I'm considering doesn't have an AMH cut off either which is reassuring. Did you take ubiquinol btw? I'm thinking maybe I should get it again and take the actual recommended dose and not just cheap out on the half dose...

DJmum83 · 01/02/2021 16:45

@Minster2012 sorry your not feeling great. Is it all the pills you are taking?
Hope you are resting up and taking it easy.

I have got an unexpected day off tomorrow and I have not cancelled school whoops 😂 I'm bad.

Xx

Minster2012 · 01/02/2021 16:46

@Juno231 I took nothing extra at that point no, cos they told me to take nothing & we had to do it really quickly, i never even had a period in between, they had to just go by scanning, I should have said in there, 3 fertilised then one dropped off so we got 2, if the tablet is meant to help then yeah why not!

@Kirky658 yeah but they just may not reply today, would you take it as a no they don't want you to interview or what?

OP posts:
Minster2012 · 01/02/2021 16:48

@DJmum83 you haven't cancelled the kids school?!! So you've got a proper day off!!! WINNER! Yeah it's the meds mehhhhhhh

Kirky658 · 01/02/2021 16:53

@minster2012 yeah they may not reply today tbh, or at all, I will still do the interview tho and see how the land lies, its 45 mins in what can be my lunch break on Thursday so no skin off my nose really!

notyetamumbuttrying · 01/02/2021 17:29

@Juno231 CARE London. Create was on my list too. Have also hard CRGH is good too. Hard to decide but I went with best live birth rates and that was care. They're Marylebone but we'd be travelling for guys hospital too.
@clolo eek I know, I thought that too! 😁
@Minster2012 I think using the tannoy for big announcements will work a treat!
Enjoy your sex later! 😉

paintfairy · 01/02/2021 17:46

@Minster2012 I do not know what cliff notes are.....
@lucyrp we've watched finding Alice. I'm assuming there'll be a 2nd series. We've also watched the bay. I like it but I think season 1 was better than 2. I think we've exhausted most things now and struggling to find anything to watch! We watched the serpent too.

So my latest concern is that orgasms prevent conception. Too much spasming going on. Should I try to avoid? I would like to do a survey of pregnant women, to see if they has regular orgasms when ttc or not. 🤣
Oh and I'm also worrying we are dtd too much this month and there'll be no sperm available! We did it last night and this morning (DH is clearly feeling on it) and I've not the heart to say- no, save your sperm! 🤣 But I was thinking it.....

Franklydear · 01/02/2021 17:47

Catching up on the bus
@Florence13 all sorts, pulling cramps, nausea, sore boobs, no apetatite...
@Juno231 is because I haven't been anywhere and DH doesn't drink at home, we would have to open a bottle and neither of us can be bothered
@Billythecat spotless is good
@Minster2012. 😂 Valentine's Day 😂on this bus, you're cracking, babe
Got similar parents to you, they also get zippo

Minster2012 · 01/02/2021 17:53

Ahhhhh @paintfairy I thought you were around fit the whole YOU MUST NOT ENJOY SEX realisation unless you get the elusive upsuck caused by the orgasm at exactly the right time???

I need to add the speedy to the list

@Franklydear some impressive symptoms there I know. Tonight maybe for the bus??

So the dog is properly limping. Fuck.

Franklydear · 01/02/2021 18:00

@Minster2012 if I am the note taker you are all going to be soooo lost, somebody said something but I can't remember what...

Kirky658 · 01/02/2021 18:13

@paintfairy the answer is yes in my case! Regular orgasms seemed to be fine!

paintfairy · 01/02/2021 18:32

@Kirky658 oh good! 😁 Because I do like them..... 🤣
@Minster2012 actually the upsuck was perfectly timed last night. I was impressed. But usually it isn't. And I'm only cd9 today, so I doubt last night was relevant. 🤣
The dog is limping? Oh no.

Minster2012 · 01/02/2021 18:48

@paintfairy @Kirky658 phew! I rather like a good crashing orgasm too. Hold on, do you think that's why my IVF had failed?? Because they say you shouldn't have sex in TWW due to infection risk (hence trying to get more in now) @Kirky658 can you advise did you have much sex in TWW?? Soooooo conflicting 🤔

@Franklydear bloody hell you are my wing woman here 😬

Yeah DDOG2 (the big pointer) limping quite a bit now. She limped after a walk last week but then stopped, I thought cracked pad on her foot. But now proper holding paw up. But I'm isolating FFS. Need to get transfer out of way.

bez91 · 01/02/2021 19:01

@Minster2012 oh wow that's all rather exciting. Really bloody routing for you! I've not tested since BFN at 14dpo which was 5 days ago so must just be a case of waiting for her to show up 🤷‍♀️

@paintfairy managed to conceive 3 times (have x1 DC) and no limit on orgasms here whilst ttc 🥳 horrrah! Not a sperm regeneration enthusiast although I'm sure sometimes when sperm analysis is done they ask that they abstain for 48 hours before so could there be something in that? Who knows 🙈

InkyPaper · 01/02/2021 19:03

Catching up!

@Sausage1990 Yes!! I have the exact same thing with my DH. I talk about it aaaannd nothing changes, it's still me initiating

@Paintfairy it has to be rare occasion when that works for me 😂 unless I walk into his office and flash him, that'll get his attention. Can't do subtle!

@notyetamumbuttrying and @DJmum83 Not gonna lie, it's pretty comforting that it's not just me 😊

@justanothercyster yup. Really sucks.

@lucyrp yeah that's what was bothering me really, that he just didn't really want to have sex with me and that's why he wasn't instigating it. Did end up having a talk with him though and it turns out he just oblivious and hadn't realised. We'll see if anything changes or not. To be fair to him TTC is an absolute mood killer 😂

@Minster2012 oh bless ya! Progesterone everywhere does not sound fun...noooo hope your dog is OK!

@Juno231 Boooo! That's a bit shit to reschedule an hour beforehand!! At least it's not months and months away, I suppose. Btw what app are you using to track your dry January??

@blackcurrantqueen symptoms sound promising, keeping my fingers crossed for a BFP for you!

@Kirky658 ooh congrats on landing the interview! Fingers crossed everything works out for you.

I've got a random stabbing pain on my right side, ovulation maybe? Or just my weirdass body doing weird things. I guess if it is ovulation we did DTD yesterday so that would cover it, hopefully.

Florence13 · 01/02/2021 19:04

@paintfairy although mine ended in a loss I had plenty of sex and orgasms and conceived. Also have not held back this cycle either.

@Franklydear wow that is quite a few symptoms do you feel like they are different to normal symptoms you get?

@Minster2012 oh no hope your dog is alright. They always do something at a really inconvenient time. How are you feeling?

Kirky658 · 01/02/2021 19:05

@minster2012 admittedly we didn't have a lot of sex during TWW compared to the rest of the month. But month of BFP was every other day lol, just checked, as was Xmas and New year, and let's say DH likes me to be satisfied tehe!

Hope doggo is OK btw.

Just spent 45 mins on phone to Sky broadband technical help as our broadband keeps dropping out. Apparently the problem might be the router, but they won't replace it yet as we need to move the house phone away from it in case it's that... I explained DH is a teacher and working from home but they don't seem to give a crap, grrrr

Minster2012 · 01/02/2021 19:05

@bez91 scary & exciting yes, and yes for the bit of ivf that the guys have to do (ie not fucking much) they tell you to "unload" 3 days before the day of putting his sample in I think for "optimum quality" (though my DHs input was 2016 & 2017 so memory fades 😆😂) but the ACTUAL quality was determined from 3 months before (when mine was on a horrendous week long stag do 🤦🏼‍♀️)

OP posts:
Franklydear · 01/02/2021 19:24

@Florence13 I just feel really weird and very tired, but my stats are good, so no reason, also today had to go to the loo all of the sudden, I was doing something so I got my colleague to finish it cos I had to go, now! I had every symptom going before, 3rd cycle after a loss, according to the NHS, this should be the month

blackcurrantqueen · 01/02/2021 19:29

@paintfairy I think they say orgasms help the sperm travel don't they? Fuck knows in all honesty. 😂

@Franklydear fingers and toes crossed for you!! When can you test? Xx

paintfairy · 01/02/2021 19:36

@blackcurrantqueen who knows. I do every time so I was wondering if I shouldn't. 🤣
@bez91 I think if there's any low count issues then 48 hours is best left between. Otherwise I think it's OK. I've honestly tried every day, every other day, every 36 hours, saving it up for 3 days and doing it just before O. Never makes a difference. 🤣 But I do think every 12 hours must be excessive. The annoying thing is I'm so horny right now I could do it 4 times a day! 🙈
@InkyPaper flashing sounds good to me! 🤣 if it works, it works. 😁

Florence13 · 01/02/2021 19:42

@Franklydear that sounds promising, literally rooting for you the whole way. I’m really hoping this month is the month for a lot of us so we can graduate from the conception board.

Katao · 01/02/2021 19:42

I am not giving up orgasms!

Good summarising @Minster2012 poor dog, hope she is ok. Good luck tomorrow for your covid test and progesterone check isn't it?
