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 🙌🏻🥰

@Tornado2Inc haha I was thinking wine being the blood of christ Grin

Dollybird89 · 27/01/2021 11:22

Is mn being weird or is it me?

Tornado2Inc · 27/01/2021 11:45

@Juno231 Jesus Christ!!! (no pun intended🤣) @2020mission @Catherinettc Hahaha, sorry everyone! I will try to keep the beer emoji untainted!
@TTCAbroad About the ring, when I was ttc no1 (@Minster2012 just remembered you asked, she’s now 3.5yo 😊 ), I was convinced that was some sort of “good luck” thing. One of those; spin three times, apply the ring to your test, sprinkle with some pickle juice and your BFP will stick.
@Dollybird89 Yes, MN is definitely being funny today, it’s not just you!

BlondePotter · 27/01/2021 11:53

@LB20xx totally understand wanting to see what happened first! For me, using opks around the time I had ewcm helped me understand my cycle a little better as I suffered from irregular cycles. If you don't have AF within 14 days of a positive opk then you likely didn't ovulate, but your body can try again within the same cycle xx

Dollybird89 · 27/01/2021 11:58

@minster2012 I'm hanging by a thread waiting to know the outcome lol. Hope all went well x

LB20xx · 27/01/2021 11:59

@BlondePotter will definitely give them a go! If/ when AF arrives, I'll order them, definitely worth a go to see what's happening. My cycles were getting back to a more average length, then this one had just gone awol! 🥴🙈 xx

larrythelizard · 27/01/2021 12:46

@LB20xx hang in there, I hate the in limbo stuff...hopefully it'll just be 'poof' and a BFP

@Minster2012 LOVE your coat, I'm a big coat fan, I had my eye on a £300 one at sweaty Betty that I don't need and (maybe?) thankfully wasn't in my size in the sale!

I met DH on a drunken night at uni, we were very casual for a couple of months although I was exclusive. It took me years to summon up the courage to ask him if he was exclusive too, and yes, I was! Been together for 15 years this year although married for much less!

Feel ever grateful we met in the 'wild' before internet and app dating was the main way of meeting people!

Dollybird89 · 27/01/2021 13:38

Yay my yoga step thing has come today.... now to find a beginner step workout on YouTube... any suggestions?

Minster2012 · 27/01/2021 13:50

Hello I'm back!!!
Right to catch up

LB20xx · 27/01/2021 13:53

@larrythelizard thank you! We've still been at the BD'ing, yano just incase of miraculous conception 🙈😂!

Sausage1990 · 27/01/2021 13:58

Loving all the OH stories. Mine is quite boring really, we met in work in a pub. We worked together for about 18 months before we got together. Although I thought he was nice looking, he had a gf so it never even crossed my mind. When he was single we started texting a bit & my friend told me, he'd said he liked me. Turned out the same friend had told him that I'd said I fancied him... In fact I later found out that neither of us had said it at all, she was trying to match make because she thought we'd suit. So we started texting & ended up having a drunken kisses on a night out... 2 weeks later we were official and the rest is history lol... 11yrs later here we are 💕

@larrythelizard I'm really half we met before internet dating. It seems like such a faff!!! X

Minster2012 · 27/01/2021 14:11

Ooooo that's good on the Femometer promise btw & hello @Ailie12 I don't have you on my list hellooooooo!! 👋🏻sorry if I've weirdly ignored you before???

@Vil10 soooo have you put an offer in then?!! 🙏🏻and love that about OH & the step brother thing

@DKDK123 I love your optimism on that guy being "the best father he could be?!" Let's hope

@paintfairy nailed it. Men are dumb shits 😜🤪

@BlondePotter im so pleased that I've helped you with your friend, it's good because it is really hard to understand unless you are immersed in it and as "the woman" it's all we think about & it's so stressful but the guys don't get it really but it's so hard for others who don't know to get it too. So that's great! Ask away if you don't understand cos I realise I haven't done the MASSIVELY stressful bit of the embryo making which is so awfully stressful before the transfer stage this time

@Tornado2Inc let's hope it's not long before that fertilising happens again! Ahhhhh the mooncup, nope I'm not a hippie I'm afraid plus we've never actually really "normally TTC" cos of my cancer/chemo so I've only ever had like 1proper period then some awful loads of bleeding every few weeks for months after MMC last summer so I think my cup would be more of a bucket I'm afraid 😣😔

I totally didn't get the focus thing on the rings!! And wait @Tornado2Inc we have to spin rings 3 times and if it doesn't it won't stick?? FFS I bet I can't even spin my ring normally on a surface let alone on a stick I'm that uncoordinated so mine never will 🤪

@larrythelizard yayyyyyy we have a drunken night OH!!! There had to be one yesss oh wait @Justanothercyster was a one night stand hanger on too! Boom!! Met in the wild!! I was shit at that 😂oooo I want to see this £300 coat, I got that one for a snip I love it

@Dollybird89 go hardcore & go les mills hmmm just try search beginner step class on you tube??

So yeah, lining was 7.1mm, minimum thickness was 7mm to book a transfer for next week, which is great, I've never been booked in on my first scan so this is AMAZING!! But most ppl get to 8mm now but mostly mine has been 5.6/6mm now so I'm so pleased. I'm pleased I pushed for a higher dose of oestrogen to start with

HOWEVER. It's also meant to show a lovely "3 layer" tri something or other pattern
And it didn't really show that
But she said "it's ok, it's just not great, not ideal but not a HUGE concern"
"Not enough of a concern to not go ahead especially as you don't usually get this thick a lining"

Hmmmmmmmm
But it's still good

But I'm now waiting on a call to book transfer in as it could be next weds Thursday or Friday depending when they have a slot
I have to have a progesterone & Covid test 2 days before & my oestrogen upped to 12mg now from 10mg
And a week before transfer I will start 3 x 200mg pessaries up the foof at night

@minster2012 that still sounds like really positive news, fantastic! How do you feel xx

DOB78 · 27/01/2021 14:14

@Minster2012 not much eat loads of nice food and drink red wine

Sausage1990 · 27/01/2021 14:16

@minster2012 yay for the fluffier lining!!! Well done! Great news for a transfer next week 😁 sending a lots of love xx

lucyrp · 27/01/2021 14:33

Me and my OH met at school, I moved high schools at the beginning of year 10 but had started dating someone 4 years older than me (my ex) when I was 13 turning 14 but we were on a break thing when I moved schools. Me and OH started talking in the March and went out for a short lived few weeks before he left school and I then broke up with him to get back with my ex. I remember he was very very upset🥺Poor boy🙈 we kept in touch for a while after as friends as we were really close and I used to see him after I'd finished school and he'd finished college some days. I'm not sure what happened but think it was because he started seeing someone younger than him who he then went out with for 3 years ish, we started talking again in 2016 when he thought he'd seen me in the supermarket and something struck him to message me. I was very surprised! I was going through some tough stuff at that point and confided in him pretty soon and we got close again and the rest they say is history! It was like we'd never been apart! Although there were a lot of complications but that's another story 😂

Tornado2Inc · 27/01/2021 14:34

@minster2012 That's great, great news!!!

Not much of a hippie myself (I shower and all), but I've been converted by my bestie who is. I, too, though it was gross, and that it would overfill and stuff, but tbh I find it much, much more practical! I normally get very heavy periods and on CD1-CD2 would have to change tampons every 1-2h. Now, I leave the thingy in for 8-12 hours with no leakage whatsoever (been using it for about 1.5-2 years).

Funny story, when that hippie friend stayed over at our place a couple of years ago, my daughter found her cup and was walking around the house sucking it like a dummy. It scarred my DH for life when he found out what that was 😂

Dollybird89 · 27/01/2021 14:36

@minster2012 that's awesome! Yay fluffyness! I just did a beginner one on YouTube for 15min ... now I'm a hot sticky mess without the 🍆🤣🤣 I'm determined to drop my bmi!

Florence13 · 27/01/2021 14:37

@Minster2012 yay!! So chuffed about your fluffy lining and for transfer next week. Also love your coat to, I have quite a collection of coats haha.

2020mission · 27/01/2021 14:38

@lucyrp dating someone 4 years older at the age 13 😂 I remember a few girls at school doing the same and those guys were getting grief for dating girls under 16. It's nice that you ended up back together in the end 😃

larrythelizard · 27/01/2021 14:38

@Dollybird89 have a look at fitness blender - all free and lots of different options for intensity levels (and they're not annoying!)

Justanothercyster · 27/01/2021 14:39

@Minster2012 woo for fluffy lining!! So happy things have mainly gone well, fingers crossed for transfer now 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼💜

Florence13 · 27/01/2021 14:39

@Tornado2Inc that story made me giggle. Have to admit I’m not hippy but love the cup as well think they are so easy to use. Although it did initially take a bit of getting used to.

lucyrp · 27/01/2021 14:41

@2020mission I thought I was so cool 🤣😂 poor boy, well I was 13 turning 14 when I met him and he was 17 turning 18. No one believed me of course 🤣 I was with him for 5-6 years I think, and we had DS and lived together for some of those years so not all bad. He is now my ex though 😂

larrythelizard · 27/01/2021 14:42

Well done on your fluffy lining @Minster2012...sounds a really positive morning!

It was a long version after this coat I was lusting after -

Essentially a sleeping bag that is a coat. My actual dream!
