Last time we actually got reported straight away, for being too fun for MN...was it a week ago?? Maybe 😋😝but they can’t hold us back as the Harry Potter speed bus flies...

We’ve worked out a fleshlight for horses on a MN bus is NOT WELCOME, but how do I know what you have in your suitcase? I’m just the driver, a passenger’s belongings is their own responsibility, and my bags have LOADS of OPKs, loads of pills, fruit, veg, wine, gin & trainers for my workouts.

We aren’t just challenging ourselves to get pregnant & trying to help each other do so, we are also trying to help each other get fitter and sharing small changes we are making in our lives and trying to inspire & support each other with these too...

Have a look at the small changes beside the names and see if you want to try them yourself or add in your own!

We are in this together 🥰♥️🙌🏻💪🏻
Spring is coming, and so are we 😘🦄🍀🌸🌷🌻🌼

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

@Justanothercyster I just thought it was worth trying something else. He's been on wellman over a year now. I've swapped from pregnacare to seven seas. Just to see if it made a difference. I think it doesn't hurt to try different things. He doesn't want to have to go to ivf, so surely it makes sense to boost what you've got? In my mind anyway.
I honestly think the only time I mention it is to tell him what my friend is doing or other people. I never really bring us up. Unless I need to. Its not like it takes over every conversation. I've never spoken about things like nurseries or buying things or anything to do with it?! So yes @Juno231 @Kirky658 he's being ridiculous. Since the SA the other week and not spoken about it until yesterday when I asked if he'd remembered my appointment Monday and if he was still able to take me (parking terrible).
@Minster2012 he's made it clear he doesn't want me to talk to people we know. He knows i haven't told my best friend. So taking to anyone IRL is never going to happen.

I've come out the way this afternoon. Enjoying outside time in the sun! With my horses!

Justanothercyster · 28/02/2021 16:19

@paintfairy always worth trying, I switched to seven seas too and since then my cycles shortened which was nice.
Tbh you shouldn't feel bad, you SHOULD be able to talk about it with him. Men just very touchy with it all I think.

@Kirky658 so much poas urge right now haha but probably better to wait until morning. He's happy but trying to keep a level head, he's the sensible one!

Katao · 28/02/2021 16:42

@Justanothercyster I can't stop thinking about you today! Obviously hopeful for everyone but I'm always extra hoping for us that are down the investigation/assistance route that it will happened before intervention is needed and then you pull it out of the bag 😀 esp with issues on both sides. It's just so uplifting x

Dollybird89 · 28/02/2021 16:58

OH wanted mini eggs and I had a mad craving for cake.. so we compromised lol

We are taking proceive, expensive enough but at 40 I'll try anything. Also started using clearblue connect opk and conceive plus this month.
Seen a few on about the seven seas. Might check them out when these are done.
So anyone due to test around the 14th? "Mothers day" I'm due af a few days b4 it so no way I could hold on even if by chance it didnt arrive.
Nothing exciting to report here lol

Justanothercyster · 28/02/2021 17:19

@Katao oh bless you, that's so sweet. I still feel like I dreamt it haha. I don't FEEL pregnant! I can't wait to see more BFPs on this thread 🥰

@Dollybird89 that looks amazing!! So jealous.

@2alreadywantanother you're doing all you can lovely, I really hope you get your bfp x

larrythelizard · 28/02/2021 18:01

That looks lush @Dollybird89...post some to me will you?!

Clairey844 · 28/02/2021 18:19

@Justanothercyster huuuuuge congratulations 🥳 what lovely news! Always lovely when anyone gets a BFP but when it's an original 'bus wanker' it's even sweeter 😘😘😘

@Minster2012 love that you remember about chicken salt. I ordered OH some for his bday from a shop that sells Aussie, Kiwi and South African food here in the UK so we are currently the proud owners of 3 little tubs of it 😂😂 oooh-need some chips now!

Katao · 28/02/2021 18:47

@2alreadywantanother me 🙋‍♀️ well I think af due around the 11th, always a bit of a guess with irregular cycles. Did not realise it was mother's day around then.

Dolly that cake 🤤🤤🤤

2alreadywantanother · 28/02/2021 18:52

Oh @Katao I'm due af the 11th also 🤞🤞 my eldest is 12 on the 7th so be a good distraction over the wkend

Justanothercyster · 28/02/2021 18:54

@Clairey844 thank you lovely! I'm hoping it's a sticky bean x

Juno231 · 28/02/2021 18:56

@clairey844 ooh now I want biltong!

@Justanothercyster I agree with @katao I've been so pleased all day for you!

I filtered for FF charts today of 33 year olds on cycle 15 off TTC and the stats made me happy. 40% pregnancy charts instead of the normal 32%. That combined with the HSG and well timed DTD means I'm definitely building a high fortress of hope that will hurt extra bad when AF shows 😬

Clairey844 · 28/02/2021 18:58

@Juno231 I think they do biltong on there, it's called SANZA x

Franklydear · 28/02/2021 19:04

Af due on Friday, struggling to get excited, but if I manage to get my second dosis of vaccine in may and get pregnant after, I'll be ok with that, so I am more meh this time

Catherinettc · 28/02/2021 19:16

Omg @Dollybird89 I NEED that cake 😍😍 xx

Justanothercyster · 28/02/2021 19:32

@Juno231 bless you, thanks hun❤️ Hope you're enjoying some 🍆 tonight in light of your amazing opk!

Haiyaa · 28/02/2021 19:34

Oooooh @Dollybird89 that cake has me drooling! Looks so good! I’m a sucker for cake 🤤 would probably choose cake over 🍆 sometimes, unless FW of course then I’d have to multitask 😂

Katao · 28/02/2021 19:35

I can't seem to tag properly today! Have to type the full username and getting lazy now 😂 Juno that sounds good, did you say today is ovulation day?

2already yay we can be 2ww buddies. Not sure what my plan is, didn't test at all last month which was unusual but wasn't feeling hopeful so just didn't bother.

paintfairy · 28/02/2021 19:47

@Dollybird89 I need cake! 😫
@Juno231 you and your stats. 🤣 But it has to happen eventually. Right?
@Clairey844 bus wanker 😂😂😂 I never get buses. Ever. And here i am unable to get off this one. 😆

Minster2012 · 28/02/2021 19:53

@Katao why are you having to type the full names in? That's weird, on the app or website! Oh yes @Juno231 got the peak, was it yesterday or today? I can't remember how bad is that!! Sorry! So you guys are cycle buddies with @2alreadywantanother thats ace! I didn't realise it was Mother's Day either 😆

@Clairey844 yesss chicken salt on chips it was wasn't it! I'm keen to try so I think I need an Aussie trip!

@Franklydear DS school finding out tomorrow isn't it? How is it you find out btw? Online? Through the post? Or something more weird like a big Red Cross painted on your door? And Friday oooo that seems to be coming round fast! Do you have any cycle buddies?

@paintfairy is he going to take you tomorrow to your appointment btw, or has he just switched off from it?

Minster2012 · 28/02/2021 19:59

Oooooo @Crazydoglady123 loving your new follower btw! Can we I request a manifestation of a BFP please! 🙌🏻😍🥰for everyone on our bus?!

OP posts:
Franklydear · 28/02/2021 19:59

@Minster2012 they'll email us at some point before 5pm, I bet on 4:53
Cycle buddies, no, I am all by myself 😭😂

2alreadywantanother · 28/02/2021 20:01

Chicken salt ? What's this

@Katao yes 2ww twins not sure what I'm at either. Will see closer the time. See if any signs. Have my friend calling for drink fri night (we both had mmc in Sept) and still ttc. So its nice to have someone on the same level understanding the hormones lol so I've that fri night, my sons having an all nighter on ps4 with his buddy's as he cant do a sleepover, then his birthday sun. So be nice to have all that to distract me over the wkend. See how I feel about things the Monday. I'd really like to leave it if I can. Just wait see if the witch arrives.

bez91 · 28/02/2021 20:28

@Franklydear fingers crossed for your DS school place 🤞🏼 hope you get what you want

@paintfairy men can I think be so insensitive on the TTC front. Hope you manage to talk things though 💕

@Dollybird89 that cake 😋
@Juno231 happy 🍆-ing

Hope everyone has had a good weekend, the sun has been shining here and it's such a mood booster!
Dead on my feet today and considering early to bed. DD (3.5) has been waking 3 times a night for the past 2 weeks coupled with her regular 5-5:30am wakes 😫 ---- there has definitely not been a lot of 🍆 to distract through the TWW as planned 😂

paintfairy · 28/02/2021 20:47

@Minster2012 I've no idea. Yesterday when I asked he moaned (he's meant to be working until 5) but said he would. Then started flapping he didn't know where to drive or park. Despite the fact we've been twice for SA (I drove) and last time I showed him exactly where I wait for him (so he knew). 🙄 Its over the road, not complicated. I've not mentioned it since and I'm not going to. I'll see what he says tomorrow. I'll find my own way if necessary. Weather is dry so I can always park an age away and walk if needed. I've booked the day off work so I'm OK for time.
