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

Second attempt at posting
@Minster2012 hugs, and great info about the vaccine, I had it at about 5 dpo, no changes yet, period meatier than usual
@Florence13 they were cheapies for work, and well used, I've been trying to avoid buying clothes as I like to try them, new ones in order for the weekend
There was something else but I don't remember

Katao · 10/03/2021 09:23

@Minster2012 oh I missed that you had a peak opk! That's great! If it was 11 days ago you may only be 10dpo if you ovulated the day after peak. Sorry about the bfn.

Sorry about af @2alreadywantanother

@Florence13 I also missed that your af arrived at last, hope things go back to normal for you now x

paintfairy · 10/03/2021 09:35

@Tornado2Inc I never use the applicators. I never really need extra lube at that time of the month either. So I did trial it like that but only for a month or 2. Failing that I just shove some in that region and let him move it in. 😆 That's how I use it these days.

Juno231 · 10/03/2021 09:43

@2alreadywantanother well done on the house but my goodness am I silly for feeling bad for the tenant?

@Minster2012 @katao sorry about the BFNs :(

I'm 10DPO today but my RHR has dropped for the third day in a row and my temp dipped today so I haven't tested. Feels like I'm out. Cycle 16 to start on Friday if it plays ball.

Florence13 · 10/03/2021 09:45

@2alreadywantanother aww your house is looking fab but sorry to hear the house got stripped! Although a similar thing happened when we moved into ours but we are way way way behind where you are 😂

@Tornado2Inc yay for peak!! Although sneaky catching you off guard sorry I don’t have any suggestions regarding application.

@Franklydear oh fair enough sorry missed those details I hope your new ones are what you want ☺️

@Katao thank you I’m hoping so to guess only time will tell. How are you doing?

Florence13 · 10/03/2021 09:46

@Juno231 sorry you feel like your out. 😢

Katao · 10/03/2021 09:56

@Juno231 thanks. Sorry you are feeling out. I'm pretty much in the same boat as you, waiting around for af to start 🙄
@Florence13 I'm ok. af due today but it's one of those months where it's not hit me too bad, hadn't got my hopes up.

Florence13 · 10/03/2021 10:03

@Katao I think that’s the thing when your trying for so long you get to a point where you don’t want to get your hopes up because it just leaves you feeling worse. Glad it’s not hit you to bad but here for support if you need it ☺️

Tornado2Inc · 10/03/2021 10:24

@paintfairy I meant the fertility lube, I too operate very well around this time 😂 I use it for the swimmers, not lubrication per se. So not sure how effective it will be if I just slap a handful around the general area 🤣

I'll see why I have laying around 😂

Minster2012 · 10/03/2021 10:25

@Katao it wasn't really a peak, I only got flashing smiles on the CB, I had 10 days of those before giving up but in the middle I checked with an OPK an it gave me this, so even taking the sat as a peak it's 11Dpo today.
So annoying as we can't even say "until the witch comes there's hope" as last time I waited 60 days and nothing.

I've been getting twinges, pulls, feeling nausea, got one spot of blood on wiping this Monday which was 9dpo

Sorry for you feeling you are out too @Juno231 it's so rubbish ☹️😣😔big hugs back & @2alreadywantanother thank you darling feeling those Irish hugs loving the house looks fab!! 😍but yes to @Florence13 kind of!!

@Franklydear im pleased no changes did you so far, is boss boy off now?!

@Tornado2Inc creative application! I mean don't put it on areas you aren't gonna use it that stuff is liquid gold 🤪but I applied in the bathroom before so the moment wasn't lost 😛

@Kirky658 jealous of your nap

Oooo I've just got a Mac Donald's breakfast before going on an orchid hunt for Mother's Day

paintfairy · 10/03/2021 10:30

@Tornado2Inc yeah I know you did. I tried it but it made no difference so I stopped using it the applicator way. And only use it if needed (wouldn't risk a normal one) but just slap it on. 🤣 I recently bought the conceive one instead of preseed and that doesn't even come with applicators.

Tornado2Inc · 10/03/2021 10:31

@paintfairy oh? Have I been using it wrong this whole time? I thought you kinda have to, ahem, fill your cavities? 🤣

BlondePotter · 10/03/2021 10:35

@Dollybird89 how exciting! Where in NZ will you be going? We went for our honeymoon in November 2019 and it was epic.

@tornado2inc please tell me you won't be giving any children Calpol with it afterwards 🤣🤣🤣

paintfairy · 10/03/2021 10:36

@Tornado2Inc I think that's more for people that don't have enough of their own. If I used what they suggested he'd just slide away! 🤣 I think it works, if that's your problem.

Tornado2Inc · 10/03/2021 10:36

@BlondePotter 🤣🤣🤣
Happy to report my DD is ok with spoons these days 😂

Tornado2Inc · 10/03/2021 10:38

@paintfairy helps me slurp 🤣🤣🤣 plus, glob of lube was involved with every single BFP I've had.

This game makes one very superstitious 😂

2alreadywantanother · 10/03/2021 10:39

Ah @juno231 ah I completely understand why he too the things like the French doors and gate etc. He had an agreement with the landlord, was here like 12 yes, the landlord had the house taken back by the bank. So he hadn't a hope. Think he tried to but off the bank but officially they have to put it up for sale so he dodnt want getting into a bidding war. (Understandably) so he bought else where. But things like the attic loft ladder, He removed it and had the normal hatch door put in. Sure it would have cost him more to do that than to leave and be down the money for them ffs. Like he painted the living room a shitty cold blue rather than leave the colours that were there lol but sure here we have it the way we want now anyway. Was nice putting our own stamp on it.

Juno231 · 10/03/2021 11:01

@2alreadywantanother ha well luckily he will have potentially made the property cheaper for you to buy!

Kirky658 · 10/03/2021 11:03

I'm with @paintfairy on this! Didn't use applicators just used the tiniest bit of conceive plus as if it was normal lube. Then we got our BFP. Coincidence? Perhaps. DH thinks so as he's certain we conceived on Xmas day and we were out so no conreive plus used 😅

Just had my risk assessment with HR, pretty boring as I'm working at home atm. They want to do another early May as I might have to start going back out on the road then...

Vil10 · 10/03/2021 11:27

@notyetamumbuttrying exactly what I thought!! I felt so tired during it, don't know what's wrong with me recently but since Saturday I've been knackered!!

@Minster2012 sorry about the bfn!! Sending hugs❤️

@Juno231 sorry you feel like you're out!x

Crazydoglady123 · 10/03/2021 13:09

@Tornado2Inc I nearly toyed with using a calpol syringe for my preseed when running low before 🤣👌 I have heard good things on it which is why I tried it last cycle.

@Minster2012 don't give up hope yet! They're good signs you're having atm and it's still early days 🤞

I'm CD30 and still spotting but no "full flow" as of yet. Blood since Friday has gone from pink to red to brown and now a dark brown/black and I've felt crampy on and off over the time. Spotting me never really needed a pad, been more when I wipe. It's just doing my head in as to what is going on 🤷🏽‍♀️

paintfairy · 10/03/2021 13:35

@Crazydoglady123 have you done a test?

Crazydoglady123 · 10/03/2021 13:39

@paintfairy no as when I had my scan on CD16 my consultant said even though I'd had a static smiley the day before that I wasn't ovulating/had ovulated or was going to...

paintfairy · 10/03/2021 13:44

@Crazydoglady123 could be an anovulatory cycle? Then you wouldn't get a proper period? If its not that then you have to be in your LP, to be getting bleeding? So he could have been wrong?
