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

@Hopeful110 I see lines in all of them mrs xx

@Catherinettc you do too?? I can and now a tiny part of me is looking at that pic thinking well actually I feel like todays one is a smidgen darker than the 18th ... what do you think?? Xx

@Haiyaa congratulations!!!

@Hopeful110 keeping everything crossed for you lovely

@Crazydoglady123 aww bless ya. Don't beat yourself up though, as someone else said earlier you were following the advice of your doctor. Hope things don't get bad like before and that you don't get many symptoms from it

@hopeful110 haha that makes more sense I was like. Omg Where's she live 🤣🤣 glad you spoke to your gp, I am inclined to agree. Maybe try and hold off for a few more days if you can? I did a cheapie Tesco one and a clear blue digi with weeks, have to say the words 'pregnant' put me at ease straight away. Xx

@Kirky658 haha yeah I live in the South East yeah England lol yeah im gonna hold off a few days if I can, I did a CB digi last night and it said not pregnant 🤦‍♀️ but to be honest if I'm not even pulling a good line on a frer I got no chance with a digi lol xx

@hopeful110 lol deffo no snow there then! I'm in the North West and we had a fair bit this winter. Sun is out today but it is still chilly. I was gonna say then accidentally posted it lol, cb digi isn't as sensitive tho so if it is still early it may not pick it up yet. 😊 Keep us posted xx

Ok that's actually good advice from the dr @Hopeful110, hang in there. Deffo get on the maternity services radar.

So, AF arrived late last night and was a bit of bright blood and then very very light brown blood when I wiped and was crampy but not super bloaty. But has now stopped! I really can't believe I'm pregnant this month (I think we only had sex twice in the FW and a good few days before ovulation) and also they pregnancy tested me in the hospital and that must have been negative otherwise they'd have told me.

So what is going on?!

Answers on a postcard please?! Presumably hospital treatment making my body into a fuckboy?!

Will obv POAS in the morning, it's driving me mad though!

Thanks for well wishes :) x

@TTCAbroad oooh how many weeks are you? So exhausting isn't it! I'm back at work today and touch wood feeling fine 🙌🏼

@Haiyaa yay! Congrats! 🎉

@Minster2012 no pain or sickness today 🙌🏼 sooo hungry though so gna get a chippy tea after scan tonight 🤤

@Crazydoglady123 oh no sorry about the clomid :( Letrozole might be better maybe?

@Hopeful110 I see lines! 🤞🏼

@Hopeful110 yes they all look quite similar when you put them all together and yes if anything the one from today is a smidge more obvious to me 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 Good advice from the GP but as you say he can’t really understand how you are feeling. Have you seen the home HCG finger prick tests? I was thinking of getting some before but won’t bother now. They are 10miu but HCG is more concentrated in your blood than urine so maybe that will give you a better idea?

You poor thing @Crazydoglady123! I can’t believe you are going through this again! I hope it isn’t as bad as last time and just results in some good eggs.

@larrythelizard yes sometimes illness does throw things off especially when there is stress involved BUT it was a good few days ago that hospital tested right? So plenty of time for things to develop. I would POAS just for some peace of mind.

@Justanothercyster good luck with the scan and yay for chippy tea! Get on them chips 🤤

@2020mission only since the start of the year so I feel like a bit of a fraud but very blessed, I was worried as I am now 35. I DO take a lot of supplements 😂 although the evening primrose can do one now hopefully! To be honest I just threw the kitchen sink at it.

Thanks @Florence13 @larrythelizard @InkyPaper

@Justanothercyster I tried 3 months of Letrozole and I didn't respond at all to it. IVF next month though

@Haiyaa thanks lovely. Never can I 😩 These eggs will all be wasted as we're abstaining 🥺

@larrythelizard you can't be sure...me and OH dtd 3 day before and the day before O and the day after O...so you could still reach the egg, don't count yourself out lol. Especially as AF hasn't arrived in full force :) 🤞for ttomorrow for you 🥰 xx

@Kirky658 yeah its absolutely lovely today! I'm gonna do some gardening for an hour before doing the preschool run lol. Ahhh I cant wait til everyday is like today 😉 roll on the bbqs lol xx

@Justanothercyster haha do you?? On all of them? Lol xx

@Haiyaa ohhhh on amazon? Yeah I saw those, just wondered how accurate they are, you have to send your sample off don't you? I might do it though ya know....just for peace of mind... can't do any harm and they arent dear either. Yeah when they are all together I feel like todays is easier to spot but then could be the filters lol xx

AF is in the building!!!! Never have I been happy to get AF!! 133 days this cycle!!!! Madness! Now I'm just hoping I don't get 5 weeks of af like last time too

@Dollybird89 yes 🙌🏾 at long last!!

@Hopeful110 I think you just drop the blood in and it comes up with lines like the urine ones but maybe I am wrong. Did you tell OH yet?

@Crazydoglady123 noooooooooo! What a shame! IVF is so confusing!

Glad to hear AF has FINALLY reared her ugly head @Dollybird89, now back to business as usual hopefully!

@Crazydoglady123 yeah @Haiyaa isn't wrong, IVF is confusing!!

Hooray @Dollybird89!! Fingers crossed for a more 'normal' AF, 5 weeks of it would be pretty grim!

I will test tomorrow @Hopeful110 and until AF arrives - if I ovulated on the 12th like I think I did then really I may not get a BFP until Friday...?? Argh fuckboy body can DO ONE!

@Haiyaa yeah the NHS nurse said they legally have to tell me to abstain because of the multiple risk but we was abstaining anyway as IVF down regs starts next week. Has your BFP sunk in yet ☺️?

@dollybird89 wahooooo!!! Atleast she's here now!! Hopefully it's not another long cycle for you though lovely!! Just tell her don't over stay her welcome 😉🤣

@haiyaa ohh il have another look then! Especially if its that easy haha!! Yeah I told OH but he didn't actually say anything...like literally nothing. I don't think he understands it all, his one of the guys that's like unless a digital spells it out for him his oblivious...let alone tryna find lines on frers 🤣 but yeah, atleast he knows I guess xx

@larrythelizard ahhh have you stocked up for the poas marathon? Lol! Ahh I really hope you get your bfp too!! 🥰🤞 so from tomorrow til Friday aye, that's not too bad right? Xx

@Hopeful110 sorry to hear your lines haven't darkened. Keeping everything crossed its just taking a while. I understand you not wanting to tell your OH, I didnt tell mine about one of my bfps because I knew it'd probably turn out to be a chemical. When he found out I hadn't told him he was upset that he wasn't there for me so I promised to tell him about any after that no matter how light. Hope you had a nice head clearing walk, your dog is so cute 😍

@Haiyaa can def see that 2nd one without having to click on it. 😊 congratulations 🥳

@Crazydoglady123 that's not good news to your clomid response! I really hope you don't end up with the pain and u comfortableness you did last time. Big hugs

Hooray for AF @Dollybird89 🥳🥳🥳 not something you normally celebrate but for you it definitely is.

Ah yeah I had a while ago @Hopeful110! I would genuinely eat my hat if it's a BFP and I HATE uncertainty so argh!

Ok, maybe AF has started again?

Sorry, I'll stop now!

@Hopeful110 hoping you get some progression in the next few days 🤞🏼 I get the not telling DH, it's hard if you don't know what you're actually telling them too.

@larrythelizard that's really annoying, I feel your pain 💕, I've been having mid cycle bleeding and it's like wtfffff are you doing fuckboy body!?!? Are you Aunt Flo? Or an irritated cervix or an implantation bleed or just bloody taking the piss!

@Crazydoglady123 sounds like a whirlwind day! I hope it's not as bad as last time for you.

@Dollybird89 yayy! Fingers crossed for a normal AF. Bet you feel relieved.

I am catch up
@Dollybird89 great, I think
@Hopeful110 🤞
@Justanothercyster good luck today, I am sure everything will be good

@Dollybird89 yay for AF finally making her appearance.

@Justanothercyster looking forward to your update.
