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

Ok I'm all caught up but sorry haven't the brain power to respond 😅 I've had a headache all day, roll n bedtime! I'll just send you all a bit of general positivity and hope all is well, especially Hollie...hope you are feeling better today. Oh and happy birthday sausage!

Catherinettc · 04/03/2021 16:15

Hey ladies sorry I've been rubbish at keeping up. Had a crap few days. Some period type pains and a wee tiny bleed yesterday but all good thankfully ☺

I'm so so bored today! Can't wait for this all to be over now. Laughed that this time last year everyone was calling for a loxksown and here we are a year later miserable 🤦‍♀️. Northern Ireland executive gave a road map statement with absolutely no dates so absolutely no point ffs they couldn't run a bath never mind a country 😡

Justanothercyster · 04/03/2021 16:18

This might be a dumb question, but how do you start a new PM on the web app? As in to get it to the right person?!
@Kirky658 trying to pm you but failing miserably 😂

Justanothercyster · 04/03/2021 16:21

Never mind- I did it!

Florence13 · 04/03/2021 16:27

@Justanothercyster has your day got any better bless you?

Gem176 · 04/03/2021 16:32

@Florence13 can't work out of you mean the funny ovulation ones or the baby ones 😂

@Vil10 definitely more sentimental, I've kept all the personalised things dd was given as a baby. Lovely to look through. Found the box the other day when clearing upstairs. Wee wander down memory lane 😊

@Minster2012 particularly fond of the Jerry one because that was literally me 🙈😂

Juno231 · 04/03/2021 16:34

Btw I asked OH yesterday if he can tell me what ovulation is but he refused to give me a serious answer! "It's when the ov ulates" was the best I could get.

@paintfairy maybe clean your butthole with his toothbrush today as revenge for his shitty moods Grin

Justanothercyster · 04/03/2021 16:36

@Florence13 well it was nice seeing my dept at school again but just tiring, and I didn't even teach! God knows how I'll survive the rest of this term 😂

2020mission · 04/03/2021 16:47

I missed the ask your OH to describe ovulation so just did it now... I got a very short answer:

"When an egg is released into the... fallopian tube"

so was quite a boring answer 😆 thought he wasn't going to remember the fallopian tube due to the pause.

@Minster2012 you asked in the last thread when my doctors appointment is - it's the 15th March. With work I get my birthday off so it worked well as I won't have to worry about any work meetings/calls happening during the appointment 😅 and yeah my mum and me share the same birthday so I don't know what it's like to have my own birthday haha

I've kept up my caffeine cut (or reduction) so far as I've only had one coffee a day and always decaf. I was expecting caffeine headaches but it's been fine. Must not have been taking much caffeine in after all?

I'm really putting all my hope into this cycle for TTC as my husband gets his vaccine on the 12th (will be just after ovulation) and I don't know if it will impact the sperm at all. I imagine I won't be able to get my bloods done until April as my appointment is too late in the cycle.

Welcome @Asthenia 👋 good to have someone new join us as more ladies have become pregnant so not TTC with us anymore.

Justanothercyster · 04/03/2021 16:54

@Asthenia welcome! Let us know how the acupuncture goes :) I've heard a few people trying it with ttc of late x

Dipsy77 · 04/03/2021 17:00

Hi all,
Just a little update from me I was one of the June BFPs after dtd only once that month and using the fertility cup. My twin girls were born on the 22nd feb by c section weighing 6lb 1 and 4lb 3 I'm so in love with them. Sending baby dust to you all, I'm proof it only takes the once plus in a geriatric mum (44 next month!) lol, I also have a 17th month only dd so have my hands full at the minute🥰

Franklydear · 04/03/2021 17:19

New bus, old answers, I missed the end of the bus
@minster cycles usually 26 days, last one 24, no cramps, no sore foof, big boobs but only occasionally sore
Tomorrow I'll spend the day on the phone to sencos everywhere, starting what I can do, looks like his whole class is going there, so if he end up there that's something
@gem176 it is a midwives tale, heartburn here from 5 months onwards and ds was completely bald until past 6 months

Franklydear · 04/03/2021 17:20

complaining on 30s, love you really

Bossboy shenanigans, caught him standing up on a chair with wheels to fix a flag attached to the ceiling, don't ask, the way he was going on about it, you would think he does it to worry me, he's off for 3 weeks, he thinks I don't know, I just don't care

Franklydear · 04/03/2021 17:20

@Dipsy77 how wonderful, you do give me hope at 43

MartyMcShy · 04/03/2021 17:23

Aw @dipsy77, massive congratulations! Twin girls, fab! You defo have your hands full there but in a lovely way 💖 enjoy every minute of it (and hopefully the babies are good sleepers 😋)! I have a fertilily cup but never used it...you've inspired me now!!

2020mission · 04/03/2021 17:27

Aww congratulations @Dipsy77 I remember you getting your BFP great to here you are all well. They must be so cute especially your wee 4 pound girl 💕

Kirky658 · 04/03/2021 17:35

@dipsy77 awww I was a later joiner to the bus but congrats regardless ❤️
@justanothercyster have messaged you back beaut xx

Dipsy77 · 04/03/2021 17:37

I was going to post a pic but don't want to be insensitive because I know how hard it can be x

2020mission · 04/03/2021 17:39

@Dipsy77 I'm fine with seeing a wee photo but completely up to you! 😃 just glad to here from you again

notyetamumbuttrying · 04/03/2021 17:40

Dipsy77 · 04/03/2021 17:42

Gem176 · 04/03/2021 17:55

@Dipsy77 congratulations they are beautiful 🥰 lovely to see some bus babies 👶🏻

@Franklydear I was joking about it not being an old wives tale, it definitely is.... my bump bestie had equally horrific heartburn and had a very cute little egg head a few weeks after I had cousin itt 😂

Crazydoglady123 · 04/03/2021 18:01

Hey, new bus 🎉

Happy birthday @sausage1990

Oh my @Dipsy77 your girls are gorgeous! I think your DH must be feeling very out numbered in your house 😂

Nothing new my end...just sitting waiting for AF to arrive so I can start my Clomid again. Why is it when you want AF to come it feels like forever 🙄

Hope everyone else is well

Justanothercyster · 04/03/2021 18:02

Awww @Dipsy77 congrats! Beautiful girls 💕

@Kirky658 thanks! X

Hopeful110 · 04/03/2021 18:30

@Dipsy77 awww I remember you! Congratulations lovely! They are beautiful!! I bet your doing an amazing job 🥰

I dont know about anyone else but I actually find it quite comforting seeing and hearing updates from bumps and mums and newborns... it gives me hope that like Dipsy said 'it only takes one' 🤞 I'd hate for those who are now pregnant to feel like they can't share their joy... we are all in it together. Our times will come 🥰🤞 xxx
