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

@sausage1990 that's an awesome line congratulations!!!

@franklydear sending you lots of hugs x I'm sorry your having a tough time atm

Morning all I'm just trying to catch up I've had a manic few days it was my dd 13th birthday on Wednesday n the celebrations lasted till Sunday so I've been totally drained.
@Justanothercyster I'm so happy your scan went well n you can relax a bit now. We are considering booking an early private scan too just for a bit reassurance, how many weeks are you just I'm not sure when's best to book one.
Congratulations to all the other bfps too.
I will try n catch up over today to see what I've missed out on.
Hope everyone is well 😘

@vil10 yep nothing is being decided till the 2th April. There's a task force reporting to the government about how they think international travel could work and if it can resume in their eyes from 17th May. So realistically till 12th April we just don't know. I'm hopeful it will because there will be thousands of job losses in the industry if it doesnt.

@Kirky658 at least it's not too far off!! I hope so too!! I do understand people saying they don't think they should go ahead because last year there was a window for holidays and we ended up back in lockdown but we need something to look forward to, jobs will be lost, airlines will go bust!

@Hopeful110 I really think you should speak to your DH and let him in, these men really have no idea what time of the month it is unless we tell them so punishing him without him even knowing isn't helpful to either of you surely??

@Juno231 come on girl, you gotta give it a shot! Without the dick it's difficult 🤣😂

So the ivf clinic just called, and after a day of being gazumped on our dream house deal yesterday after a whirlwind week last week including AF & the anniversary of miscarriage we are now straight into the ivf it seems not doing northisterone on day 21 but instead day 11 which is 26th March! Hopefully then starting stimulations around 7/8th April @notyetamumbuttrying @Crazydoglady123 @clolo @paintfairy when's yours?

@HappyMrsR I'm 7+2 today :) you should see a heartbeat but still looks a bit blobby haha.

It does feel like this bus will soon be a pregnancy bus with a small number of TTC passengers. I joined another thread in addition to this as I feel like the minority here now 😅 great to see success happening for so many though of course! Just a shame it doesn't work out well for us all.

@Katao it's rubbish isn't it. I think it's the uncertainty I find the most difficult!

@Hopeful110 I'm sorry OH isn't being more supportive, men are idiots sometimes. He may just be trying to protect himself from any hurt but he needs to communicate that. DH and I have worked out we're shit and communication so have to work really hard at remembering to check in with each other.

I'm with @Kirky658 - don't believe the scaremongering in the media - they have to sell papers somehow! Just wait and see - these countries (Greece etc) need tourism to survive so they'll be keen to make it work. Fingers crossed for Santorini @Vil10 - it's always been on my bucket list!

@Minster2012 that's brilliant news for you after a crappy week! You've just overtook me slightly now. I start buserelin on 31st March and if no cysts, stims start 14th April

@Minster2012 so glad you've got some good news!! You deserve it x

@larrythelizard yeah definitely, I just think you'll have to have your vaccine before going anywhere and im pretty much one of the last😂 it's @notyetamumbuttrying who's going to Santorini, I have been but a few years back! I've got Mexico and Greece booked! You definitely need to go to Santorini, the sunsets are to die for!!x

@Kirky658 staying in oia, hope we get to go!
@Juno231 ah it sucks doesn't it! Hard keeping upbeat when it's been so bloody long and naff all has happened 😣
@Vil10 oh I hope you just sneak in there!!

@Minster2012 ooh Friday, that's awesome! That's the day I'm due on lol! I'm still unsure, I did want to delay as I thought natural would work after the lap (if I get it before the first apt), but then totes forget about my shit amh for my age so not sure it will, so now thinking I'll go with starting ASAP which will hopefully be end of April. Appointments 6th April so will know more after that. Sorry you got gazumped on the house my love xx

@Vil10 @Kirky658 @Minster2012 yeah he is normally a closed book so I can never tell what his thinking or feeling and he doesn't talk about emotions etc, plus he always says I read into stuff too much and over react so I guess I feel like if I tell him I'm anxious and worried he will say something like well if the lines arent there now then your not pregnant so just move on or something. Think I'm just gonna put my headphones on and blitz the housework today, just dropped dd off to her 'gaga's (grandad) for a few hours so I'm child free... if I wasn't so unsure I'd open the wine lol! Xx

Ah yeah sounds familiar, I've just ground DH down over the years @Hopeful110. Maybe plan something fun and not preggo suitable for a few days time so you have either a good solid BFP or a vat of wine to fall into?!

@Minster2012 oh wait there was another dream house?? bugger. 26th of March is OH's birthday and when I'm due to ovulate so fingers crossed it's a fortuitous sign for us all!

I just wrote a massive long message and accidentally deleted it 😭😭😭

So...
YAY @Sausage1990 those lines 🥰
@Katao @Franklydear I'm so sorry you're having a rubbish time, I'm wish you and I feel you 💕
@Hopeful110 well done for holding off testing, I agree it sounds a good idea to have something nice planned with OH in a few days time with or without wine. Cleaning sounds a fab idea to keep your mind off things, when would AF be due in a normal cycle? X

@Minster2012 I'm so sorry you've had such a shitty run! Yay for IVF PLANNING though!!! X

@Juno231 if it’s OHs birthday then there has to be some lucky birthday sex right?

@Minster2012 fab news on the IVF front although sorry about the dream house and rubbish week but hopefully the grey clouds are moving and the sunshine is about to appear with your rainbow.

sorry about the dream house @Minster2012 - it probably had subsidence or woodworm or a poltergeist or something. I have faith that there'll be another one that's better. And whoop for them moving up the timelines for IVF!

@Vil10 Doh thought I'd done really well there!

@minster2012 happy days on the timelines lovely that's fab news!

Great news on the scan @Justanothercyster you must feel so relieved. Did you get your chippy tea?

AAAAAAAAHHHHHH @Minster2012 that’s amazing news ❤️❤️❤️

How are you feeling today @Crazydoglady123, ovaries still behaving?

Nice lines there @Sausage1990 and the digi too! Is it sinking in yet?

Good luck with your scan @TTCAbroad! What is the maternity care like in Japan? Is it standard to get an early scan or did you decide to get it yourselves?

@Franklydear it’s totally understandable when you have so much going on outside of TTC. Try to focus on yourself for a bit and relax, you have a lot of pressure on you at the moment!

I would count today as day one @larrythelizard, are you going to keep up with the acupuncture? Are you still going @blackcurrantqueen?

All you FW ladies get on that dick! If it’s too much like hard work just DIY 😉 and hop on for the ending. Much quicker 😂 I have actually done that when absolutely knackered but want to get those swimmers!

@Haiyaa they've not exploded yet 😬 I have EWCM and cd13 today so guessing ovulation is impending. IVF clinic now have my scan from NHS and happy for my IVF to continue as planned which is good as all the medication for next week arrived today. I asked how many mature follicles I had and I have 6 on my left and 1 on my right which I feel a bit better now about as I thought it was more. How are you doing?

20 pages to catch up on 🙈 sorry. But I'm not dwelling which is good I suppose. I only did 2 cb opks and got my peak. Had a rise in temp so fingers crossed for a bfp this month.

@sausage1990 hun I'm just delighted for you. Absolutely buzzing. Congrats. How you feeling. Try to relax and enjoy it.

Hows everyone keeping, I'll be contacting the fertility clinic at the end of this cycle if nothing happens. Just to see if I'm ovulating etc
Feeling ok about it all but dreading next month. My due date 😢

@Hopeful110 aw bless its all youcan do really isn't, wait and see. Is it tomorrow af is due? I don't think they are indents. Shame OH is being so quiet about it, maybe poke a bit of support out of him. Sometimes they need to be told what we need.

@notyetamumbuttrying any chance it's a good kind of yucky? 🤞

@Juno231 thanks. Sorry you are meh too. Same , fertile week and meh, not great! Have to abstain for OHs SA soon so need to make the run up to ovulation count.

@HappyMrsR oh wow thst sounds like a good long party 😂 happy birthday to your dd.

@Minster2012 full steam ahead by the sounds of it! But sorry about the house.

@2020mission itis going a bit that way isn't it.

@larrythelizard thanks. Yes gets mundane!

@Hopeful110 oh just sawuour update. Do what you have to do. No point dragging it out of him so.

@2alreadywantanother hugs love. Not easy see it approach I'm sure.
