Minster2012 · 16/02/2021 23:02

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

@Franklydear think I may have worked it out and followed you 👀

Along with some other ladies I think I've worked out! 😂 don't feel you have to accept... I won't be that heartbroken 🥺

Florence13 · 17/02/2021 19:41

@notyetamumbuttrying I’m doing alright thank you hun.

@lucyrp abs @Catherinettc have to admit that all sounds rather shocking care wise to be honest.

@lucyrp wait so you still don’t have notes?

lucyrp · 17/02/2021 19:44

@Florence13 nope i was supposed to take them away with me at my booking appointment at 7 weeks but she wanted to keep them to add some stuff to the computer so she said she'd send them to the hospital where I was having my 12 week scan for then. She rang at 9 weeks to ask a few more questions and double check which hospital I wanted to go for my scan and said she'd send my notes over. At 12 weeks at the scan they asked for my notes and I said she'd kept them but has said she'd sent them to them so they hunted for ages and couldn't find them and rang my midwife to ask and she laughed and said she'd forgotten but would drop them by my house as she lives local. My scan was last Monday ... still no sign of my notes 🙃🙃🙃

paintfairy · 17/02/2021 19:49

@lucyrp that's shocking!
@MartyMcShy my tsh is normal. Its my fsh that's high. @Juno231 is the other way around. 😆

All this inst talk. I feel left out! I don't really know how to use it! I have it. But I don't know how to find people? 🤣

amy2503 · 17/02/2021 19:52

Starting to feel periody already and not due on for 8-9 days. Feel sad already 😢😢

notyetamumbuttrying · 17/02/2021 19:52

@paintfairy if you follow minsters musings then you'll find the ladies on there. Just look at her followers list and you can work ppl out. To be fair I can only work out Lucy as her names Lucy on here, anyone else I'd be guessing 😂

@Florence13 glad you're all good 😌x

@lucyrp can't believe the incompetence you're having to go through! How bloody frustrating!

lucyrp · 17/02/2021 20:00

@notyetamumbuttrying @paintfairy I mean its fine but really annoying... I won't be with them after my 20 week appointment anyway as I'm swapping midwives. I do feel awful as mine is lovely just seems to be a bit airy fairy ... its not even her the reason why I'm changing just because it's the opposite direction of where I go for doctors etc x

notyetamumbuttrying · 17/02/2021 20:03

@lucyrp that is really annoying! Thank god you can be rid of them soon! Are you finding out the sex btw?! 😁

lucyrp · 17/02/2021 20:05

@notyetamumbuttrying thag and the fact the midwife who told me to"go and have a pint you're only young you'll be pregnant again before you know it" when I had my loss is at the same birth centre and could very well be on call when I go into labour and I defo don't want her .... umm we haven't decided yet! All signs of a girl so far but knowing my luck will be a boy 😂 I don't mind either now as long as they're healthy. X

Franklydear · 17/02/2021 20:08

@paintfairy I don't know either, just add people and look at their pictures, I can receive messages too, a learning curve, go to see who else I can find

notyetamumbuttrying · 17/02/2021 20:15

@lucyrp omg she never said that to you whilst having a miscarriage wtf is wrong with ppl! My cousin is a midwife and she would never dream of saying this!! Aw a girl would be nice wouldn't it. "One of each" as ppl say. I bet your boyf wants a boy, boys always do 😃 totally understand you just wanting a happy baby, that's ultimately all that matters ♥️

Florence13 · 17/02/2021 20:16

@lucyrp oh my goodness!! That is shocking on her part!!

@lucyrp

lucyrp · 17/02/2021 20:19

@notyetamumbuttrying yeah she was very dismissive altogether and never offered up any suggestion as to what was actually happening with my body it just so happened that unluckily she was on call the weekend I started bleeding so had to deal with her. I have found that in each birth centre there tends to be a "say it like it is" kind of midwife who's normally older ... and she is that one. Yeah I'd love a girl although I know more what I'm doing with a boy! And have all the clothes etc. Although girl stuff is so damn cute and being able to do pigtails etc🥺🥺 OH actually wants a girl surprisingly but I think only because he wants them to look like me and thinks there more chance of that if we have a girl 😂 if someone had told me it was defo a boy when I was like 6 weeks I would nearly have a breakdown but as it progresses I'm more open minded and can see pros and cons of either. So yeah as long as they are healthy I don't mind 🥰🥰

@Florence13 so yeah when I spoke to a different midwife today and she said "bring your notes" I just laughed. Didn't know what else to say 🤣

lucyrp · 17/02/2021 20:21

@Franklydear definitely not !

Florence13 · 17/02/2021 20:31

@lucyrp I’m not surprised 🙈 I’m actually shocked!

Juno231 · 17/02/2021 20:34

Has anyone found me on insta yet? 👀

@MartyMcShy well that's the thing, the NHS normal range is massive and doesn't take ttc into account. Anything online says no more than 2.5 and in the US medical system they count 2.5 as the upper limit for normal vs I think 4 in the NHS?

@lucyrp dear god what is wrong with those midwives?!

@notyetamumbuttrying @paintfairy Well I got another NHS letter through about my next appointment at the fertility clinic... 8th of July! I could cry 😭

@Juno231 ridiculous isn't it! Nope haven't figured you out! Thought I had but definitely haven't !

Crazydoglady123 · 17/02/2021 20:42

Thanks @notyetamumbuttrying & @Minster2012 hopefully 3 weeks will be enough time to start then. I will be begging them anyway 😬
