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

@Katao as @lucyrp said exactly. To be honest it doesn’t bother me a whole lot but I haven’t been trying as long or suffered losses like some of you. And when you ladies have a BFP or any other sort of success on your TTC journeys I am genuinely happy for you. I just think for me, I would feel like I was being insensitive if I hadn’t been checking in for a long time and then popped up with a BFP and that’s it. Especially today. And now I’ve made myself a liar because I said I wouldn’t say anything else 😂

And YES to Falcon and Winter Soldier, then Loki 🤤 lots to look forward to!

lucyrp · 14/03/2021 14:24

@Haiyaa I wasn't going to say anything at all but I clearly couldn't stop myself 😂 I'm happy for anyone that eventually gets their BFP but of course we feel happier I guess for people we know more about and get involved etc as you feel you really know them

Katao · 14/03/2021 14:25

@lucyrp fair enough it's a sensitive day but she's been on several busses. And either it feels mean when there are various negative comments aimed at a person.

lucyrp · 14/03/2021 14:27

@Katao I mean hardly. The person in question has been tagged on new buses a lot and hasn't said anything. Only the odd hello and then that's it for weeks. I'm not saying anymore on the subject anyway.

Katao · 14/03/2021 14:33

I'm not here for an argument either I just don't think there is any need for the passive aggressive comments. It's a real person on the receiving end.

paintfairy · 14/03/2021 14:34

@Haiyaa yes, I share your thoughts! And it's a valid point.
@Ltay2 woop! Brilliant getting a night at home. I hope you get some rest.
@Florence13 thank you 😊
@clolo I do not know what Mrs Hinch is but I now know I don't want to. 🤣
@Vil10 I did not know you could just get cocktails! Sounds good. I think I could drink one right now! Enjoy the rest of your weekend! And birthday- whatever day it is?
@bez91 YANBU! 🤣 Sort it out!
@InkyPaper do you want to come and stress clean my house? 🤣 I haven't even been that useful!

What i have done though is been for a nice walk to the woods this morning with the dog. Got lost and walked further than usual. Then dropped into my mums on our way back and took her card. She likes seeing the dog too. I'm craving cake and I appear to not be able to buy any, so I'm making one. Haven't for ages and decided I must deserve one now. Just taken it out of the oven. I can also send a chunk up to my mum. Then I'll be off to do the horses. My house remains filthy. 🙄

Crazydoglady123 · 14/03/2021 14:41

Hey ladies, Sorry haven't posted in a couple of days. Had a bad headache and it's better today although still lingering. Sending everyone lots of love today ♥️ I sent a nice message to OH's mum this morning whose been there for me a lot recently saying although she's not my mum, she's like a second mum to me ☺️

bez91 · 14/03/2021 14:46

@paintfairy sod the filthy house, it can wait. Cake sounds much much better - enjoy! He's left me waiting until later... it did start peeing it down whilst he was outside washing the car, serves him right 😂

@InkyPaper I like a stress clean or decorate myself! Hope you're feeling more positive 😊

Franklydear · 14/03/2021 14:54

Made tiny little shoes for my new nephew due in 5 weeks, hope that is enough time for the ridiculous post service in both countries

paintfairy · 14/03/2021 14:56

@Franklydear awww the tiny shoes are cute!
@bez91 the rain was definitely karma 🤣
@Crazydoglady123 I've had a fair few headaches on and off. I'm sure it's hormonal? I've got another coming now and it really starts to get annoying!

I also forget to ask- what is Wanda?

Crazydoglady123 · 14/03/2021 15:04

Awwww they're so cute @Franklydear! I bought some similar off Etsy I need to send off to Canada for my cousins newborn baby.

@paintfairy I'm not sure if mine are hormonal or the Clomid or stress as me and OH had a bit of a row Friday about events coming up in April/May and I'm dreading seeing people and having things like unexpected pregnancy announcements brought up at them. We're okay now but he struggles to understand how it affects me and often at these events it splits so the guys go and have drinks and the girls stay together so I'm going to be all alone with it. His promised me he'll try and stay near me and we're going to have a code word if anything happens we'll make an excuse to leave.

Crazydoglady123 · 14/03/2021 15:05

Sorry for your BFN today @paintfairy

Vil10 · 14/03/2021 15:12

@Florence13 Thankyou!! I definitely think the roast will sort me out!!

@notyetamumbuttrying he is a good'un

@bez91 Thankyou!! Yasss to fw, maybe just jump on DH, surely he can't say no then??

@paintfairy neither did we!! But OH's friends brother owns the bar and he told us about it, they were so good!! Thankyou lovely! Birthday is tomorrow! Sounds like you've had a nice day and can't beat home made cake!x

@Franklydear very cute!!

Justanothercyster · 14/03/2021 15:21

@Vil10 happy birthday lovely lady 🎉💕 those brownies look amazing!

Sending hugs to everyone today ❤️

Katao · 14/03/2021 15:26

Stress cleaning? I could do with a bit of that but it doesn't appeal 😂

@paintfairy @Crazydoglady123 sympathy to you, I'm cd3 and have basically had a headache since af turned up 🙄definitely blaming hormones. I'd imagine clomid and progesterone are likely to blame for you. @paintfairy sorry about the bfn, at least you can drop the progesterone now.

@Franklydear those booties are too cute!

Minster2012 · 14/03/2021 15:26

Hey ladies sorry been off painting windows and clearly I caused drama with my comment for @HappyMrsR. Of course here is a safe space to put that, and I genuinely mean congratulations, but tbh I had taken your name off the bus a number of times because I tagged you & had no replies and it does take time doing that. Then each new bus & there was one hello again then nothing. It was my fault and I'm sorry if I put a downer on your day, totally my bad. How's your OH/DH (I don't know what it is) taking it?
Being a bus driver on here takes a lot of time and effort actually, and emotions so maybe I take it too seriously, and so yeah I like ppl to talk to us and chip in 🤣 so on a sensitive day too I just personally might have left it until a little later than the first post of the day. That's all, we get invested in each other Cos we care.

Minster2012 · 14/03/2021 15:30

@paintfairy I'm so sorry on the BFN lovely, big big hugs

@Vil10 it's your birthday????? Why didn't you say!!! 🙌🏻💝🤗

@InkyPaper can I get in the cleaning queue???

@Franklydear they are bloody adorable!! 🥰

@Katao it was my fault on the comments @lucyrp was sticking up for me, I've apologised to @HappyMrsR buf personally I might have waited until tomorrow & said "yesterday I got my" but that's me

Franklydear · 14/03/2021 15:40

@Minster2012 I feel the same as you, and it is fantastic to have such a dedicated driver, one day I'll make a little pair for you

Katao · 14/03/2021 15:43

@Minster2012 I actually thought your original comment was pretty well rounded and you did congratulate. I'm not trying to have a go at anyone. And do understand where people are coming from but the atmosphere was making me uncomfortable. I don't even feel comfortable now having prolonged this conversation about someone else. I hope you see where I'm coming from.

Catherinettc · 14/03/2021 15:44

Hey ladies xx happy mothers day in any aspect that it comes to you. I personally hate today 😭 I was unfortunate enough for my mum to actually pass away on mothers day so it's like a double whammy for me. Been up all night with my 19 Yr old dd too breaking her heart due to relationship with her boyfriend (she was in a terrible state poor thing) so now I'm tired and grumpy 🤷‍♀️ ds hasn't even bothered to come out of his room and apparently my flowers which were supposed to be delivered were cancelled last minute 😡😡

Sorry just needed a wee rant and I know there's no judgement here 🤣🤣

Hope everyone else's day has been better than mine ❤❤ bug hugs to u all xxxxxx

DJmum83 · 14/03/2021 15:47

Hey ladies.

Thank you so much for all your lovely messages.
Scan went great measuring exactly bang on. Can't wait to get home and tell kids and close family.
I'm still not managing to hold much down so midwife is referring me to my GP tomorrow to get signed of another week or 2 and she said to ask him for anti emetics, so we will see what he says.

Hope everybody doing ok and having a nice day xxxx

Asthenia · 14/03/2021 15:50

Hey everyone! Been AWOL the last few days as we’ve been moving house which has been pretty stressful and the bus moves so fast!
I hope everyone is OK today.
@Catherinettc I’m sorry, that all sounds difficult enough without the stresses of DD/DS on top of it. Hopefully you can make some time for just you and do what you want!
@paintfairy sorry about the BFN. No matter how prepared you are it’s always horrible seeing a blank test, hope you’re alright.

Hope everyone else is doing OK and I will be taking my bus passenger duties more seriously now we’ve moved! Xx

Asthenia · 14/03/2021 15:52

@DJmum83 glad scan went well! My friend had to take anti-emetics during her pregnancy, she’s really glad she did and it made her experience much better. So fingers crossed you can get them ASAP! X

Franklydear · 14/03/2021 15:54

@Catherinettc hugs, lovely lady, I am lucky enough to have a different mother's day that the rest of the family, so this one is just for me, different any way, autistic house 🏘️
@DJmum83 happy dance!

Catherinettc · 14/03/2021 15:57

Thanks @Asthenia I actually feel better already for having my wee moan lol. Just going to slob out tonight (nothing new there 🤣🤣) can't do much now anyway I'm so uncomfortable but down to single figures in weeks left to go 😁 hopefully it doesn't drag in. Doesn't seem that long ago I had ppl squinting on here checking lines on tests lol but was actually a year ago now its crazy!

@DJmum83 lovely! Although not so good about sickness. Its not nice at all I feel ur pain xxx
