Meaty periods, ivf roadmaps & announcing BFPS on tannoy 📢TTC Bus 31

[Minster2012]

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 thought we might make it to Valentine’s Day ♥️💓 but oh no we talk too much! If you want to talk most things other than TTC we are the right bus, tv, (married at first sight what the hell?!), pets, annoying DHs, good food & exactly how many orgasms should we be having?

We’ve got a rowdy bus of newbies, oldies with history, excited ladies going forwards for IVF & pregnant mates we can’t get rid of...& February is gonna be BIG!

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 🙌🏻🥰

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

Look what the postie just brought me 😃 I ordered them when af arrived and they took forever to get here! Think I've already ovulated 🤦‍♀️ joys of short cycles, not much time to plan your next move!

@Kirky658 @Juno231 food stuffs not really any good as can't buy it too ahead of time.

Maybe I'll book a horse riding lesson...I've never been on a horse! Can they happen in lockdown?!

@Kirky658 re notes you can have a word doc open on the same screen I think but minimise it a bit!

@Minster2012 we both must have iPhones 😃ooh I best get on the browser version pronto!!
@Kirky658 good luck at the interview my dears, I'm sure you'll smash it!
@Katao mine are short as well! Anywhere between 24-26 days. What about yours? Good you're stocked up for next time (if there is a next time) 🤞🏾

@Minster2012 regarding raw steaks, I'm the same. While I was preggers with DD, I had them all cooked sous vide. Look it up, if not aware of it. Basically, you put raw steak in a bag, put bag in water, then the device warms up water to a certain temperature (about 55-57°C is reasonable for pregnancy "blue" steak), keep it there for about an hour-two, then sear it and you're good. You get cooked steak with raw taste and texture.

Happy birthday @Florence13 and @DOB78 🎉

@katao we used the conceive plus lube and got our BFP that month. Coincidence, maybe but who knows 🤔 be careful with it though its sooooo slippery you don't need much lol xx

@bwfcchick88 long as you enjoy the chat & ideally get involved in the bants that don't matter!

@Kirky658 horseback riding??? No one told my sis in law who has 4 horses & 2 DC you can't do that when upduffed?! She did it to 30 weeks. I mean neither child so far likes horses but mehhhhh. If the interview doesn't go well you could fake it breaking up!! But you'll be great!

@larrythelizard yeah if I get preg I've already decided I can't stop on the steak but I eat it "black and blue" so like flame fried on the outside (where bacteria is) and then blue inside, and wouldn't eat in first trimester def.

Urgh pate urgh urgh urgh. Though MIL makes a mean pigeon pate. Allll the cured meat & soft cheese (though you can eat cured meat when cooked like on a pizza, and also soft cheese cooked like baked Camembert) can you tell I researched it??!!

@bez91 borderline teetotal so you'd be flat out after a cocktail session 🤣😝

@Katao check the packaging hadn't been tampered and your postie hasn't been having a party in the meantime 😝I'm still waiting on my baby aspirin 🤔

We ran out of lube last night, just in time for one last bonk tonight then bonk free zone whilst embaby gets snuggled right after tomorrow?? 😬

@Juno231 I had ovulation pain last night and this morning so think it matches up with ovulation yesterday. Should we go again tonight or do you think we are covered. Here's to another TWW.

Quick break before starting again absolutely hate double shifts prefer just mornings.

Will catch up in my bed tonight.
Hopefully the vote goes in our favour seriously people need to get a life xx

@DJmum83 I think once ovulation has passed there's little point but when in doubt - you know what to do! I just couldn't lol. I expect OH not to want to touch me until the day of AF now!

I'm hoping my fertile window is soon, going to try the sticks tonight! 😅

@bwfcchick88 which sticks do you have? We do love a good stick to piss on, I regularly offer out my kindling here to those that need it

@DJmum83 we do say if in doubt DTD 😬if you've got it in you, get it in you 🤪

Ladies it's brunch time here & some leftovers from last night & I feel a fishy burp coming on, should I warn the curtain twitchers??

@notyetamumbuttrying pretty irregular so anywhere between 20-28 days but mostly in the mid 20s, one random one in the 40s ffs 😂 had ov pains cd10 this cycle and usually 12 day LP so this looks like it's going to be short. Feel like I'm always on my period! Yes will be ready for next cycle but hoping the investment goes to waste 🤞 with my first I bought a CB ovulation digital and got my bfp before I had a chance to use it, after trying for a year.

@Kirky658 I seen it said a lot so maybe coincidence but maybe not 🤞 can't hurt!

@Minster2012 hmmm postie did look rather chirpy 😂 when do you plan to start the aspirin? Do you wait for a bfp or start after transfer?

Sending lots of birthday wishes @Florence13 @DOB78
@minster2012 I cast my vote 😁👍

Might have af soon... yesterday my anger levels sky rocketed and took some serious killing on my Xbox to calm me down lol deffo pmt.. hoping it comes soon and isn't 5 weeks long this time

@minster2012 thanks hun! Yeah haha apparently it's due to the risk of falling, who knew... Do you get your test results for the progesterone today?

@djmum83 did you DTD yesterday and this morning? If so I would say to save exhausting yourself you should be OK for every other day! Xx

@Juno231 I honestly can't be bothered 😂😂 but I keep thinking what if my eggo is still hanging around so will maybe give it a shot.
If in doubt as @Minster2012 says I'll get it in me one last time this cycle xx

@Kirky658 no never managed yesterday or this morning. Managed plenty the days leading up to ovulation though. If ovulation was yesterday which pretty sure it was xx

Taking a seat, I thought the title was funny and drew me in. That AIBU was rediculous.

This TTC journey has certainly made me very open, AF and EWCM discussion is almost daily with my OH lol sexy

D22 and feeling positive

@djmum83 I wouldn't worry then hun sounds like you've done enough. Fingers crossed for you 🤞😊

@ronnii sounds like you're one of us already, welcome to the madhouse 😂

@DOB78 & @Florence13 if either of you follow my Instagram then X has sung you happy birthday 🎂and given the dog a cake for you
Sorry

Here's your card ladies, 🎂

@Ronnii hellllloooooo welcome, as you've guessed, NOTHING is TMI here, in fact we suggest ppl discuss everything (we have ladies here doing ivf cos we've been around each other so long), pregnant ladies who don't wanna leave us & newbies and we've all been through various so yes don't worry! Feel free to ask away! But we are verrrrry chatty so don't worry to drop in and out we talk like it's a WhatsApp group 🤣

@Kirky658 yes I have to phone after 1.30 😬fecking progesterone leaked alll over the sheets last night. No lake spermo here just progesterone urgh and it's making ny lips tingle as SOON as I push it in?? How is that possible to go from foof to lips in 5 mins??

@Katao happy postie!! My research suggests from transfer but ivf consultant says def from BFP but no harm from transfer so I'm going from transfer but straight from when it arrives

Ps it's on my Instagram story

@Dollybird89 I'm sure that thread REALLY helped with your rage!! I used to love the zombie round of COD I miss that from my youth 🤣

@Katao I feel the same! Perpetually on! Here's hoping honey 🤞🏾
@Minster2012 vote cast! I logged on on my work laptop, let's hope IT aren't snooping on my online activity 👀
@Ronnii whoo hoo welcome to you! 🥳 how long you been ttc? For your first or second?

@minster2012 ooooo not too long to go then, I have a good feeling for you!!! Hhahahaa, so it's lake progesto rather than spermo 🤣 living the dream

@Minster2012 not long to go now!! 🤞🏾
Eek to lake progestero!! 😂 Just watched little X singing. Such a cutie pie 🥰

@minster2012 yeah Lol! Plus I found out my dad's carer (who lives with him) well her daughter does their shopping and is in their bubble...and she has been going round seeing friends as and when she pleases.. tried reporting it but cops got it all mixed up thinking she was a carer and that she had people at her house when it's her going out seeing people.. worst bit is she puts it on Facebook for everyone to see and gets away with it! It could kill my dad and she just doest care.. rage level 7.0 atm lol deffo got pmt 🤦‍♀️🤬
