So our valentines treats did the trick & we’ve got some BFPs for February...HORRAY!! 🥳♥️😘

We’ve picked up some newbies who come armed with a flesh light for horses, 🐴a penchant for McSteamy & 2 extra Sausages 🐶🍆for us to add to our rowdy bus.

If all else fails we can send our dogs round the country...stud them to each other cos they don’t understand social distancing and get a hella cute bus loads of pups instead, they can then teach us how to do it!

Grab your popcorn for Married for at First Sight, your briefcase for the horse spunk & make your decision on whether you are McSteamy or McDreamy...🩺

We’ve got the fastest TTC 🚌in the UK & we talk like it’s a WhatsApp group so be prepared...but don’t worry cos long as you pop in and out & say hello once in a while you can sit on top, we’ve got room for you to chill out if TTC gets too much.

We are a rowdy bus of newbies, oldies with history, excited ladies going forwards for IVF & pregnant mates we can’t get rid of and we are now OWED BIG.

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

minstermusings.co.uk for the blog that’s where the full stuff happens

Hopeful110 · 20/02/2021 19:04

@larrythelizard yeah we have custard for it too but I like it without it lol. @Haiyaa I have food colouring too so could add some blue for him haha! I had the Oxford Astrazenica one which I thought didn't have as bad side effects as the others :(

paintfairy · 20/02/2021 19:36

@notyetamumbuttrying mine is android. Typical. 🤣

Minster2012 · 20/02/2021 19:38

@Minster2012 heeereees johny

MartyMcShy · 20/02/2021 19:49

I'm only day 9 now @larrythelizard 😥 got the static smiley day 8! way too early based on a 27 day cycle so body is being a total fuckboy! I had the iv scan Tuesday as part of my fertility appt and I'm wondering if that has anything to do with it 🤔

@vil10 pregnancare totally messed up my cycles. I stopped taking them pretty quickly and went back to just folic acid. I think it says on the side of the box that it shouldn't affect them but it can. Is it to do with the vitamin b in it? I'm not too sure.

That cake looks lovely @Hopeful110. Anything with icing and sprinkles is a winner! I love custard but would have cream with that cake!

I hope you don't get anymore cysts @crazydoglady123. Ttc is complicated enough without them thrown into it.

Minster2012 · 20/02/2021 19:51

Alright lads let's get back to it 🤣🤪wtf is a DDOS attack & how dare it interrupt our yoga slurping burps??

Have we found out the make of @Amy00's pup she's waiting for?

Have we marvelled over those sprinkle cakes just like the Olden school days from @Hopeful110

Have we found @MartyMcShy's short OV?? You might have a quick peak as the others say, fuck boy, have we all laughed @Justanothercyster throwing water everywhere TWICE & having a tantrum??? Sorry, laughed WITH her?! Honestly that so me!

OMG @Franklydear you e just reminded me I've got some hero's left & not the marvels sexy kind!

@Catherinettc I basically am a walking miracle, ppl are amazed when they realise how faulty I am 🤣

Have we answered @paintfairy's app question? It's so easy! The app is usually way better

@HollieL567 that's really good I'm so pleased

@Vil10 what film?

@larrythelizard oooooo let's hope it's good news for you and you know it's not TMI here and online wine tasting sounds good!

@bez91 oh no I hope you feel better and @Crazydoglady123 too

Sausage1990 · 20/02/2021 19:59

@notyetamumbuttrying yes definitely a bit of an odd start to Wanda Vision but it's gotten really good now 👍🏻 it's definitely setting up for some new films @Franklydear, DH is a big marvel fan and he said exactly this.

@minster2012 Well fuck me, if we can successfully manifest a marvel orgy we can definitely manifest us all getting bloody pregnant... Surely latter should be easier than an orgy with imaginary people haha. And I agree with @Franklydear there's nothing not to like about marvel, it's a film for all the family 😉

Nice to be able to get back online and chat with you all. Shows how dependant we've all become on each other when we're all missing the chat 💕

Vil10 · 20/02/2021 20:20

@notyetamumbuttrying I don't think he'll be home till early hours of the morning so maybe not the best call out but a nice peaceful night for me!

@blackcurrantqueen I hope so!! Going to try and not think too much into it though😩

@Crazydoglady123 it really does!! Ohh I hope it's not your cysts making a reappearance!!

@MartyMcShy glad it's not just mine! When this cycle is over I'm going to stop taking them!!

@Minster2012 mean girls!! I haven't watched it in ages but it's definitely my guilty pleasure!!

notyetamumbuttrying · 20/02/2021 20:35

@paintfairy always the way eh 🙄😂
@Sausage1990 yeah I love it! Can't wait for the next marvel film. Gutted all the avengers ones are finished now. Loved every single one of them! Both Thor's, captain America's and black panther! Captain marvel was pretty good too. I'm glad the apps back, felt well weird not being able to read and post this afternoon.
@Vil10 ahh that's a shame. Yeah enjoy the peaceful night. I watched mean girls again a couple weeks bk with my sister and mate on FaceTime. Hadn't watched it in years, it doesn't age, still fab and hilarious 🤣

Justanothercyster · 20/02/2021 20:43

Eyyyyy the app is working again!

Look at this story (attached). Ffs I can't get pregnant and this woman is lucky enough to conceive WHILST SHE'S PREGNANT! 😂

@Vil10 who ever knows when my af is due haha. My apps think the 28ths apparently 🤷🏼‍♀️ what about you?
I also had af style pains today, ok this is getting creepy now lol. Not as bad as what you're describing though. God I hope we both get good news this cycle.

@Minster2012 hahaha it was such a shite show! You ok?

Justanothercyster · 20/02/2021 20:44

Would help if I actually attached it...

Dollybird89 · 20/02/2021 20:52

Up until now I've used the browser 🤦‍♀️ now the apps up and running I've got that... see how easier it is 😁

Trying to build myself up to do workout thinking of doing the booty one @minster2012

Still no af cd103 now ffs
Vaccine Wednesday!!!
Get to drive to Doncaster Tuesday too to take OH for his pts test (work thing lol)

DJmum83 · 20/02/2021 21:04

Hi everyone

Well my Auntie is through the operation and just need to see if it heals now.

My wee girl is much better now think she is going to suffer migraines like me unfortunately.

I'm absolutely shattered tonight and working in the morning. So early bed I'll catch up with you all tomorrow

Hope your all ok xx

Vil10 · 20/02/2021 21:08

@notyetamumbuttrying isn't it a classic!! And the most quotable film ever too😂

@Justanothercyster well let's hope after doesn't make an appearance at all for you this time🤞🏼my app says Friday but god knows with these pregnancares!! I hope it's our month!! How selfish of her, goddd🙄😂

@DJmum83 hope your aunty recovers well!! And glad your little girl is better!

Franklydear · 20/02/2021 21:10

@DJmum83 hopefully everything will be ok

I am still up with ds and DH had gone to bed cos he's tired, I bet that's no 🍆 tonight then

Clairey844 · 20/02/2021 21:12

Ah glad they went down well for you and mini minster 🥰🥰 @Minster2012

Thanks @notyetamumbuttrying, I think rocky road is one you can't really get wrong-especially when being 'assisted' by a toddler lol.

Welcome back @Amy00 lovely to read your update (although obviously not the BFN 😬)

@DJmum83 wow that must be some serious break in her wrist bless her. And what a nightmare few days for you too.

@Gensola sorry you're having a 'meaty period' but from an IVF point of view hopefully it means you build fantastically fluffy linings and there will be a lovely nest for the egg to snuggle into next time you have a transfer 🥰🥰

@larrythelizard that sounds promising 😳😳😳, hope AF is still AWOL

@Hopeful110 ooohhh that school cake looks beaut!!

Xx

larrythelizard · 20/02/2021 21:12

I'm drunk now @Vil10 your original message made perfect sense! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 cramps were implantation pains.

@MartyMcShy does sound like a fuckboy...maybe you're like that person @Justanothercyster tagged and you'll ovulate twice and have twins but not twins 🤔

@bez91 I know it's very daring. It's only the last week that he's decided he's forgotten how to sleep properly!

@Dollybird89 you can do it!! 💪💪💪

I feel like the app is super whizzy quick now they've restored it after the DDOS attack!

Minster2012 · 20/02/2021 21:19

@Dollybird89 welcome to the world of the app 🤣🤣there's specifically a booty one??? Oooo CD103??? Fucks sake!

@Justanothercyster WHATTTTTT she gets pregnant twice??? They look weirdly doll like though don't they??? Like @Vil10 says. Totally selfish. Good choice on mean girls! We've gone retro, pulp fiction!

@Sausage1990 id manifest a pregnancy first I guess than an orgy 🤔😆I guess.

@DJmum83 soooooo pleased your aunt & DD is ok, take some time 😘

So ladies I'm feeling a bit malaise tonight. My best friend shared our surrogacy pregnancy Facebook announcement from 3 years ago the other day & firstly I missed it, I've just seen it & secondly it's made me miserable. We've had a MMC & 2 failed more ivf attempts since then, not just then, but a year, we announced that this time 3 years ago. & yeah another preg announcement here today too. We saw a barn development opportunity today & spent a large amount of time discussing how much we could stretch over selves whilst keeping money aside to keep trying & is it worth it with only DS but needing just a bigger garden & a bit of land for the dogs. My head is a pickle. There's no right answer it's an auction anyway & we recognised 5 customers of DHs who are developers so we can't compete, the lady was horrible to us when we said "we'd like it as a home" she practically pushed past us despite the firm knowing us. Just mehhhhhhhhh. 😔

larrythelizard · 20/02/2021 21:29

@Minster2012 it's ok to be malaise (and that's a very polite way of putting it!), all of this stuff is big and scary and like you say has no right answer, and I think worse of it all, everything is so uncertain. You just have to trust in yourself (and DH of course) that the decision you make is the right decision.

Oh and you'd manifest an orgy?! Wtf?! I'd go for a baby and a lottery win thanks!

Franklydear · 20/02/2021 21:31

I feel your pain @Minster2012 our friend's wife had the baby and he sent pictures, lovely, only after a few months I've been crying over the list baby again, meh....
I forgot to say, DH has had the follow up with the heart problems, it turns out us anything but, it looks like a nerve in the chest area did something that caused the pain and the high blood pressure, so just a matter of time, sorts itself out, all the test showed no heart damage

Franklydear · 20/02/2021 21:32

@larrythelizard I'd manifest Loki, he only lives in London, is not that far

Florence13 · 20/02/2021 21:34

@Vil10 that sounds like the perfect night and fingers crossed the sore boobs mean a pregnancy.

@Minster2012 sorry to hear you have had a crappy day. Sending virtual hugs. I feel like housing and developing is a tough world with a lot of mean people in it.

@bez91 how are you doing?

@DJmum83 hoping your auntie has a speedy recovery and glad your little girl is better.

@larrythelizard fingers crossed af stays away.

Florence13 · 20/02/2021 21:35

@Franklydear good to hear that your OH has not heart damage.

Minster2012 · 20/02/2021 21:43

I really wanna google these avengers now to actually see who i would choose to manifest for my orgy but like @larrythelizard said should manifest the lottery win then we could outbid the fuckers 😆
Do I need to say the most poetic thing about it for those that have read my blog? It's directly behind the pub where DH & I met, had our first date (where I broke the toilet!) the pub is currently closed even before Covid had closed had struggled but it was open before by 2 lovely sisters in beaten & DH have been there a number of times (it's v close to where we now live) we like the village & the village really want it to reopen again, maybe even as a community run pub, it looks out over the duck pond. Gahhhhhhhhhhh

In my post I meant to say "how much we could "over stretch ourselves" 😂

@Franklydear it's so hard isn't it. But it's good on finding the nerve damage though & that it will sort itself right??
