Egg hunters vs the virgin wife - find the BFP - TTC bus 36

[Minster2012]

Ok so we need to get back to us ladies, back to fun games, POAS & getting fit, but you need to help me Cos Minster is flagging with a fuck boy body worse than the rest 🥺

Guess what...it’s nearly Easter & know what that means! 🐰🐣...We don’t want the 🐰to have the fun but bloody hell sometimes it’s a f*cling egg hunt all right 🙈🤣.

March and April we’ve got a lot of exciting times ahead with people going for Clomid & IVF as well as a lot of straight up sex for the “normal” TTC gang so let’s get shagging & FIND THOSE 🐣🌈.

We are still working on our spring challenges alongside trying to get pregnant and we’ve had great results so far- feel free to have a catch up on those and add your own.

And we are still 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.

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

@Juno231 how can it suddenly become unmortgagable? How ridiculous!
@DKDK123 sounds shit. Bloody pregnant people! How dare they! Definitely some treats deserved. 🍷🍫
@Justanothercyster A rest day sounds good. But hopefully it's just your body stretching, as others say?

@Vil10 ooo 👀 watch this space. Not a fan of condoms either we had to use them last year for a few months and we'd not used them in that long we were like a couple of inexperienced horny teenagers again trying to put it on 😂

I can echo @Minster2012 comments about no extra large in Yorkshire 😂 glad you're feeling ok today!

@DKDK123 looks like a good stash and you deserve it 😊

@Justanothercyster I get it's really worrying at this stage, you're kind of in purgatory between that pregnancy test and the scan, try and take it easy this weekend and just rest up

@Dollybird89 go must be ready to look for answers for you surely
Today's rant: 2 mother's of autistic friends, both best school friends, have told their children that ds is going to their school, yeeeiii!, They are going to different schools and I don't have a firm place yet, friend 1 is going to shitty school, she's happy with this, I have told her a polite version of over my dead body, still she told her D's, you can walk together, friend 2 I told her he is not going to shitty school, I might consider the school her ds got, but only after appeal, still she told her D's is quite likely you'll be together in new school, what happened to only telling certainties to autistic children? knowing these children, both will have a meltdown if the prediction doesn't happen and it will make settling in school much harder, as it happens, I've changed my mind and under the very little possibility of success in appeal if the school of mother 2 looks as good as in paper when I talk to their senco and check it out, we are considering asking for that place and not appeal, but only if perfect, as we can always take that place if appeal fails

@justanothercyster @happymrsr sorry to hear about your pains ladies. Remember it is most likely just bean snuggling. I had one day about 6.5 weeks in where I swore I was miscarrying because the cramps in my stomach and back were so severe they were like the worse endo cramps I've had for months. Xx

@minster2012 no change on the inch weight loss. But that's to be expected I guess with the additional rest. Foot still gets painful by the evening so trying to get workouts done in middle of day. Gp not do anything else about my cycles just got to wait until my appointment in may which is crap. Spent half the morning dozing on the sofa and when I have been awake been peeing every half hour! hormones are all over the place .. got angry with the dog today just for being hyper. OH is being accidental prone and sliced his thumb open and I went in full panic mode as there was blood everywhere. Then had to retreat to bed and watch some crappy tv and had a good old sob (saw the bfp and it got to me a bit .. but congrats)

@justanothercyster, rest up and take it easy over the weekend. There's no point in me telling you not to worry as I know you will until you get your scan so just rest up as much as you can.

@Franklydear you woukd think the mums would know by now not to say anything till its set in stone 🤦‍♀️ at least it will be theirs having the meltdown not yours!

@dollybird89 you're really not having a good time of it 😔 sending big hugs and know we're here 💐

@DKDK123 yes but it makes difficulty for mine as he comes to me not 1 said this and boy 2 said that, where am I going? my staple answer at the moment is I still have questions, I'll tell you when I have all the answers 🤷

@Dollybird89 it's hard, I wasn't feeling very hopeful for the future and with D's new fight I've just dedicated myself to that, so I've put on a couple of pounds, but I got my new work trousers, I ordered a size 20 thinking it'll be a squeeze, but they are quite loose, I am rambling but what I mean to say is a bit of self-care will do you good 💖

Evening all! Hope you're all ok!

I am keeping my head down and just trying to plod along before my recurrent MC clinic appt next Thursday.
I'm trying not to think about TTC too much!

@Hopeful110 congratulations I definitely see a little line! Hope tomorrow's brings the BFP you're hoping for ! 🤞🏼😘

@Dollybird89 hope you're doing ok lovely lady, you've had a rough few weeks haven't you 💕

@Juno231 oh god dammit on the flat front! So what do you have to do now? What a nightmare!

@Franklydear @blackcurrantqueen thankyou lovelies 😘

I've struggled to sleep and tossing and turning, mixture or anxiety for this mornings test, and my nose being congested lol. Done my test and I'm not feeling very confident about it, it's fainter than yesterday's pm one, but I know I've always tested in pm with dd and mc last year, so maybe I'm not a fmu kinda woman lol, il post the pic but don't be afraid to say you can't see much. I'll probably retest later on and see if there's any difference or shall I just wait til tomorrow afternoon?

My temp is still high as yesterday too xx

@Hopeful110 I struggled to sleep too! Been awake since 515, think it's something to do with turning 35 today and still childless 🙁
I can still see the line and my brightness isn't even all the way up on my phone! I'd tried and hold off until tomorrow and use smu. 🤞🏾

@Justanothercyster sorry to hear about the cramping, try to relax a bit this weekend, remember there is a lot of extra blood flow to the uterus during pregnancy so where previously you might have had a cramp so mild you might not notice, it can feel a lot more intense when pregnant. Especially while it is busy making extra space for your little bean!

@Juno231 what awful news about the flat! We have a friend in a similar situation where the cladding is the same as the one at Grenfell. Instead of fixing it (I believe there are arguments between developer and government as to who should pay) they have “Fire wardens” 🙄 but what will happen when people can’t get a mortgage?!

Hope things get sorted with DS school soon so you can give him that definite answer @Franklydear, it’s difficult when you are trying to manage a situation to avoid meltdown/disappointment then someone else comes and runs your good work!

How you doing today @Hopeful110?

I can’t believe they won’t even help you trigger a period @Dollybird89, is your GP a man? I find them sometimes a bit less sympathetic towards “women’s issues”.

Like the look of your pick ‘n’ mix @DKDK123, sorry it was the result of a shit day though 😞

6dpo here and STILL not symptom spotting..... but I did get cramps after orgasm last night which is not usual for me, is it the witch showing up early 😭 and today is DD birthday so I will probably have a cry later! How are the rest of the symptom spotting crew, I’m hoping we’re on a roll now after @hopeful110’s news!

Missed your update again @Hopeful110! I think some women just don’t get a good result in the morning contrary to what we are all told! I agree try again tomorrow a bit later on with a good hold.

@hopeful110 still time yet for a big fat sticky line!

I had some really bizarre dreams last night and struggled to sleep.

@Katao how was your hsg? Thanks for the bday wishes 😘
@Vil10 haha that would be my kind of reply as well 😂
@Kirky658 I forgot to tell you! I had my pre surgery tests this week. I was a bit shocked as they called me day before and said come in for bloods. It wasn't just bloods tho, it was swabs, blood pressure, weight height etc, they didn't warn me of any of this lol! So my surgery will be in the next two weeks or so, just gotta wait for a letter 😬
@Juno231 sorry on the mortgage front! Dh is a mortgage advisor if you wanted to DM me any questions and I can ask him for you?
@Dollybird89 May is far away, so sorry hun. Hope Dh's cuts ok now too!
@Haiyaa aww I share a bday with your daughter! Hopefully they'll be happy tears!
@Franklydear sorry you're still going through ag with the school hun x

@notyetamumbuttrying ahh it's so rubbish aint it! All we need is a good night sleep and we didn't get it :( my nose is so runny but so congested I feel awful with it, a snotty mess 🤭 and a massive HAPPY BIRTHDAY lovely!! Do you have any plans??🎈🎂💐💕 remember your only as old as you feel or as I say only as old as the underwear your wearing 😘🤣 i am relieved you can see something though! Il hold off til tomorrow smu then :) xx

@Haiyaa aww thankyou lovely, im ok... disappointed a little as thought I'd wake up to a definite bfp but I'm more anxious now after this mornings test. hope your OK?? Xx

@notyetamumbuttrying firstly happy birthday!!!! Secondly wow that is amazing news!!! So glad you're getting seen soon that's fantastic. Glad you haven't had to wait 2 years like me lol xx

Happy birthday @notyetamumbuttrying! Enjoy your day! Doing anything nice😂😂😂😂 lockdown birthday’s suck!

I think I just get emotional at the fact that she is growing up so fast, she’ll always be my little baby in my eyes! 😭😭😭😭

@Kirky658 I hope so I really do 🤞 xx on the plus side i have blood tests on 26th march and then on the 1st april so hopefully it'll put my mind at rest xx

@Hopeful110 ah sorry you feel a snooty mess, hopefully it goes soon! Thanks 😊 well we're both off today so it was meant to be a lie in 😆 looks like only Dh is getting that. Then just our usual weekend activities of walking about where we live, prob get takeaway coffees and lunch. Actually we have a day of eating planned 🤭 Dh will make me pancakes with maple syrup and bacon American style for breakfast! And we're getting GBK burgers this evening and there's champagne in the fridge 🍾 haha I'm glad you said underwear and not the man you feel cos then I'd be 38 😂
@Kirky658 thanks 🤩 oh wow 2 years is a long time!! It's only because the assisted conception unit is in the same department as gynae so my referral was straight to them after my ivf chat. So surprised at the turnaround on benign surgeries tho, they told me 12 months last month and now it's all of a sudden full steam ahead!
@Haiyaa thanks honey! See above 😉 Aww that's understandable. How old is she today then?

@notyetamumbuttrying happy birthday to you 🥳 good news on your appointment and that it seems to be moving quickly!

@Juno231 ahh crappy on the mortgage front, I don't know full details behind your issues but we have solar panels on our roof which makes some providers not want to lend, so we're limited to certain providers. Do you know what you can do next?

Booked today off 🥳 decorating and house-y things to do 😒

@bez91 thanks 😊 enjoy your day off too! 🥳

Hey ladies morning & HAPPY BIRTHDAY @notyetamumbuttrying 🥰🥳🎉🙌🏻🥰so it's Friday so party central right?! You've got yourself a pick n mix like @DKDK123 AT LEAST right?! That is brilliant love that adult pick n mix and very needed bloody happy accidents indeed, the new neighbour said that to me about her third child on our first (& only) meeting the other week, and yeah the surrogacy, emosh!

@Juno231 say what??!! Unmortgageable until finance managers decide to do something about the balconies?? Or until they decide it's ok?? So do you just have to find the cash?? Say what??

@Justanothercyster awww hun sorry you are having pains, you chill it's your body stretching to that new baby we are here don't worry

Ahhhh @Katao the hsg, exciting!! 🙌🏻

@HappyMrsR you relaxed & it happened! That old chestnut 😂are you feeling a bit better now or still ropey?

@Crazydoglady123 DH did most of my injections we just went 45 degree angle quick in then slow pushing the fluid in to my tummy & thighs I think, it was 2017 & 2018 so bit hazy now 😂you can tell me 🤗

@larrythelizard so no chance you think AF not coming??? But great on the negative!

@Vil10 yesssss welcome to the TTC with condoms 🤣😂🥳🤪

@Franklydear oh god I really hope that appeal goes well

@Dollybird89 poor thing, big hugs to you and you are doing so good, focus on may darling keep going! They'll sort you but you need to keep strong, I can't believe they don't want to bring it on either xxx

@blackcurrantqueen plodding with you! 😘

@Hopeful110 it's there! Fingers crossed

@Haiyaa oooooo what are you doing fir DD's birthday (other than symptom spotting??!!) let's hope it's good signs xx

I can't believe AF still here actually @blackcurrantqueen I thought it was going but no, day 4 now but 3 full days so apparently that's a good thing!

DH was on the tomatoes last night!

@notyetamumbuttrying any more interest in your place btw?

@notyetamumbuttrying happy birthday! 🥳🥳🥳 do you have any plans? (Covid limiting I mean!) 🎉🎉

@Katao @Crazydoglady123 @larrythelizard
@Vil10 @paintfairy @bez91 @Kirky658 @DKDK123 @Haiyaa @Minster2012 thanks for the replies ladies, I was just utterly freaking out yesterday. The cramps have eased up a bit after a good nights sleep so wondering if being on my feet and moving loads at work just did me in. Not long til scan on Monday night so will try to keep sane until then! Dh is convinced I'm having twins because of how I'm feeling 😂 bless him.

@HappyMrsR not great tbh, see my post below from yesterday 😞

@Hopeful110 my line eye is awful but I agree with others, re test later or tomorrow x

HAPPY BIRTHDAY @notyetamumbuttrying!!! 🎉🎂💐💕🎊🎁✨🍰🥂 Your day of food sounds excellent!!!

And happy birthday to your dd too @haiyaa 🥰 hope you all have a lovely day too.

@Ltay2 hey lovely you've been quiet the last few days, hope everything is okay with you & baby, and that you're doing okay chilling in hospital 😊💐
