No mean girls reports to MN last time ladies 😆🙌🏻I don’t know whether that’s a result or not, but seeing as it was the Spring Zen bus I think that was good 🦋🌸🌷🌻

So it’s back to the usual routine & realising men know NOTHING about ovulation, but then again, do our bodies?? Except for the science teachers that is 😉

We are still working on our spring challenges alongside trying to get pregnant and we’ve had great results so far.

Our bus is helping each other get fitter, more positive through sharing small changes we are making in our lives and trying to inspire & support each other with these too...as well as of course being there for each other during the sad times.

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

Last month we had some fab BFPs including an OG 🥰♥️🙌🏻💪🏻so bring on March for more of the same please as well as investigations IVF fun for some others...
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

@notyetamumbuttrying wow! Great news! OH must be chuffed with himself 😁 fair play to him and good luck to you both!

@Tornado2Inc that's fab and a grest use of tww fidgetyness (just making up words 😂)

Katao · 09/03/2021 17:26

Oh and from my side of things...12dpo bfn so just a waiting game now. I'm just dipping in and out of here sorry, not fully on board.

@Minster2012 that's so disheartening about the holiday, again 😥

Gem176 · 09/03/2021 17:27

@Juno231 I did ask him the other night how he'd feel about having his penis dilated until it burst open, having it stitched back together then hoping it heals well enough to work, feel and look like it used to. He visibly winced. Told him not to worry about the pain as the elation of holding his baby would make it all disappear like magic. I then asked if he wanted to continue referring to me as being too posh to push or did we need to go into why my pregnancies are at a higher risk of shoulder dystocia, the Montgomery ruling and the risks of permanent disability due to lack of oxygen. I'll make a feminist out of him yet 🤞🏻
Childbirth really is barbaric, it's actually quite upsetting to know we actually have a lot of rights and options it's just that so many women don't know their rights 😢

@Kirky658 I totally would but I demolished a six pack 😳

notyetamumbuttrying · 09/03/2021 17:36

@Minster2012 thank you, so pleased!! Sorry to hear about your cancelled trip. I'm sure you'll get there one day! This roadmap better happen 😬
@Juno231 ha, thank you! Praise be to the supplements 🙌🏾 😂
@Kirky658 thank you honey 😊
@BlondePotter might write a thank u letter to proxeed plus 😂
@Sausage1990 thank you hun, how are you today?
@Hopeful110 yay to SA date! Hope it goes well, I can vouch for proxeed plus if things need improving!
@Vil10 thank you 😊 what's the settings mean? Hope you feel better soon x
@InkyPaper thank you, so so pleased 😃
@Justanothercyster hope works going ok?!
He was on proxeed plus but I think stopping smoking and binge drinking played a big part too. And eating more oranges and getting out for exercise.
@Crazydoglady123 wow great scan results mate! Awesome 👏🏾
@lucyrp thank you 😊 I've not had any notifications, MN hates me 😂
@larrythelizard thanks so much, the support on here is so heartwarming!
@Tornado2Inc great knitting! 👍🏾
@blackcurrantqueen I'm ecstatic 🤩 I'm pleased you have your appointment through for this month. I hope you can relax a bit more now and that you get a good nights sleep tonight 😴
@Katao he really is 😂 thank you 🙏🏾 so sorry about the bfn my love, bloody sucks doesn't it! Do you have any appointments coming up?

Florence13 · 09/03/2021 18:08

I’ve also had a whole host of emails come through glad it’s not just me.

@Vil10 aww you sound super active I walk both the dogs but definitely don’t do quite that many steps by noon 😂

@Tornado2Inc aww that jumper is fab!!

@blackcurrantqueen aww glad you finally have an appointment sorted.

@notyetamumbuttrying aww yay!! What fantastic news so happy for you.

Florence13 · 09/03/2021 18:09

@Katao sorry to hear about the bfn at 12dpo hope your looking after yourself

Justanothercyster · 09/03/2021 18:20

@Kirky658 oooh that sounds lovely, enjoy!

@notyetamumbuttrying it's ok but just hectic so trying to stay as relaxed as possible. That all sounds good, well done him 👏🏼👏🏼

@Katao sorry about the bfn lovely, it's really rotten :( x

Kirky658 · 09/03/2021 18:26

@katao sorry about the BFN lovely, that sucks, hope you're taking some time to pamper yourself. Xx

Vil10 · 09/03/2021 18:30

@notyetamumbuttrying so in the different buildings we have! Sorry I just presume😂 what's your next steps then??

@Florence13 I'm one of those people that loves to relax but can't be sat still doing nothing for too long😂

@Katao so sorry about the bfn! Sending hugs x

blackcurrantqueen · 09/03/2021 18:35

@Katao sending love 💕

paintfairy · 09/03/2021 18:35

@Katao sorry to hear that. 😔
@notyetamumbuttrying excellent news! 😁
@blackcurrantqueen that's great. I'm pleased you finally got one through.

Nothing much to report here. Other than I'm hormonal! Watched the Harry and Meghan thing (wasn't going to because I thought it would make me angry) and it was just sad. So I kept crying at it. FML. 🙈🤣

bez91 · 09/03/2021 18:35

@notyetamumbuttrying that's fantastic news! Amazing 🤩 your DH must feel awesome 😎

@Katao sorry on the bloody BFN ☹️ absolute shitter. Hope you're being looked after tonight.

Not much happening here, CD6. AF had finished yesterday morning so had 🍆 last night. Then been spotting all day so don't know if AF has actually finished or I'm bleeding after sex 🤦🏼‍♀️ need to get my head back in it. Got loads of work to do this evening catching up, poured myself a non alcoholic wine - how rock and roll 😩

Sausage1990 · 09/03/2021 18:49

@notyetamumbuttrying I'm doing okay thank you. I was very surprised to get some strong opk tests today so we all know my plans for this evening haha 😉

I've had a day and a half in work today. Nothing work related but my work friend is going through the ringer so she's been a mess today so I feel emotionally drained. I'm currently in the bath trying to gather myself from all the emotions.

Hope you're all doing OK xx

Sausage1990 · 09/03/2021 18:54

I was going to attach this. I don't think it's properly peak yet but we're nearly there...

Crazydoglady123 · 09/03/2021 19:07

@Tornado2Inc I love that jumper 😍

Oh @Gem176 I can't deal with stupid comments off men! Mine read you're most fertile after giving birth so I should get straight back pregnant after!!! I was like you have no idea what a women's body goes through giving birth 😑 and there's no way I want your dick anywhere near for a fair while after 😤

@Katao sending hugs

@Sausage1990 go get some 🍆🍆🍆

Minster2012 · 09/03/2021 19:10

@Gem176 paid leave for periods! 😂🤣god there would be uproar from the long cycle girls & the short cycle girls would have a field day!

@blackcurrantqueen & @Juno231 👌🏻🤗🙌🏻brilliant!!

@Tornado2Inc love it!! No wonder you've not taken it off!

@Katao so sorry for the bfn, the roof deck on this bus has some great company & snacks 💚😁🥰

Sorry been AWOL today been sanding & priming windows whilst looking after DS. Not the best idea then realising it's gonna pour down tomorrow. Great stuff.

@notyetamumbuttrying I bet your DH is so chuffed ❤️👌🏻🤗

notyetamumbuttrying · 09/03/2021 19:14

@Florence13 thanks 😊 it's like I've got my bfp 😂 it's certainly put a spring bk into my step!
@Justanothercyster yeah I bet! He's done so well, feel all proud of him 😆
@Vil10 ahh ok, that makes sense actually, just me being dim 😝 so next steps are hycosy. Gonna get one booked in ASAP as I'll be paying for it and then if tubes are clear keep trying naturally and know that we have funding waiting to be approved in the meantime. If my tubes aren't clear it'll be a laparoscopy as it's likely endometriosis.
@paintfairy thank you 🙏🏾 it was sad to watch wasn't it! I'm just glad they got out and I hope they stay out the limelight now and have a nice quiet life.
@bez91 bless him, he said "I feel like a man again" 😢
It might have just been AF still as even though mine ends that day, I still have some in there even tho it doesn't come out. Sex defo makes it come out tho so don't worry!
@Sausage1990 haha enjoy 😉 think we'll start tomorrow and go for everyday until Sunday. Reckon I'll ov on Saturday.
Aw enjoy your bath and get yourself in the headspace for tonight!
@Minster2012 he really is! Ooh well done on the multitasking, hope the rain doesn't mess it up too much! ♥️

paintfairy · 09/03/2021 19:22

@notyetamumbuttrying I think they'll have a nicer life away from it. To be honest it sounds like a horrendous lifestyle. I just can't imagine living that way. Money isn't everything, as it were!

Vil10 · 09/03/2021 20:00

@notyetamumbuttrying sounds like you have a really good plan in place!!🤞🏼

So on a designated safeguarding lead course on zoom and it started at 7:30, they've just said it'll be on until 10:30!!! I've muted myself and going to watch tv😂

Florence13 · 09/03/2021 20:05

@Vil10 I’m more of a yogi girl

@Sausage1990 those OPKs are looking good get on it girl ready for the egg. Sorry to hear about your friend hope the bath helps you relax.

@notyetamumbuttrying aww good I’m so glad it’s put a spring in your step and so it should! Rainbow babies are on the horizon for so many of us I just know it and sounds like you have got a solid plan in place.

notyetamumbuttrying · 09/03/2021 20:13

@paintfairy yeah I think so too! It defo isn't. I just hope that they're happy now and just live a nice life. It's what we all want isn't it.
@Vil10 thanks mate!
Great idea with going on mute 😂 who plans a safeguarding course for that late in the day and expects ppl to listen, honestly 😆
@Florence13 I've never actually had a bfp but I feel like I have with the lovely reaction from you ladies ♥️

Gem176 · 09/03/2021 20:17

@Crazydoglady123 my tolerance level isn't usually very high but right now it's on the floor 😂 they really don't have a clue! I did work with a midwife once who told me she walked into a room and there was a couple at it in the hospital bed, a few days pp at most.... I don't even know how that would happen because STAY. THE. FECK. AWAY. FROM. ME.

@Minster2012 it's never going to happen and IF by some miracle it did, male bosses would be like our male p.e teachers who never questioned "girl problems" as a reason skip class 😂

Dollybird89 · 09/03/2021 20:17

I'd love some input from all you ladies

I love doing my emkfit workouts but would like additional variety for days when I need to do something but hiit is too intense.
How is the yoga / Pilates? I've never done either lol

Justanothercyster · 09/03/2021 20:23

@Dollybird89 I LOVE yoga. It's harder than it seems too! But great for core strength and just so relaxing.

Crazydoglady123 · 09/03/2021 20:33

@Gem176 oh my days that makes me shudder at the thought! 😣 Even how long and how much I bled for after giving birth and the pain peeing from the grazes 😖
