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

Hi ladies! I've kept up with your buses for a long time now and I'm hoping I can finally join if that's okay. I might not be able to keep up with posting much but I feel a bit creepy reading everything and staying silent 😂

Me and my partner have been TTC our first for a year now. I was fairly relaxed the whole time until we got a BFP in January which unfortunately ended in a MMC in Feb at 9 weeks. I'm a few weeks after the MC now and haven't yet had a negative pregnancy test or period but I'm gearing up to start trying again ASAP. I'm hoping it won't take another year!

I would contribute an embarrassing story but I tend to block them all out or I would die from mortification, but I think the most recent was when I accidentally got into the wrong car and there was a terrified old lady sat in the passenger seat clutching her tiny dog. It wasn't even the same kind of car 🙈

@katao that's happened to me before at an internal, grim, just smile and wave 😂 least you're lubed up lol xx

@madeoftea welcome hun, so sorry to hear about your mmc. You are in good company with us lot. We are all a bit mad!

@madeoftea I realised that sounded like I was saying you were mad as well, baby brain 😂😂😂😂

I’m sure they’ve seen it many times before @Katao but I don’t expect that makes you feel any better! 😳 Good that things are progressing though.

Welcome @Madeoftea and sorry for your loss. You are definitely on the right bus and @Kirky658 is right - we are all a bit mad but you’ll get used to us!

How confusing @Crazydoglady123! I guess you will just have to wait and see. Fingers crossed the clomid has done it’s thing!

@Madeoftea 🤣 that made me laugh. Poor lady! Welcome to the bus!

Hospital called. My HSG is next Thursday. I've got to go in earlier though to sign forms etc in the fertility clinic. And I guess ask anything I need to know. Mind went blank on the phone.

@paintfairy amazing - just before ovulation! Clarify with them if they'll send the antibiotics home to you or not.

@Madeoftea welcome! that poor lady haha you had me laughing!

@Juno231 no antibiotics for me. You must be special? 🤣

Marking my place ladies xx will get a wee chat to everyone later. So tired today xxxx

Claiming my seat on the bus "beep beep"
Should have started opks by now but I'm taking a more relaxed approach this month. Might do 1 or 2 over the next few days but I dont have the urge so I'm not gona push it.

Happy st Patrick's day from the crazy Irish chick 🇮🇪

@paintfairy definitely challenge them on that - there's a risk of infection otherwise. If you google NHS hysterosalpingogram all the trusts mention antibiotics - that I've seen at least!

@Vil10 I highly recommend it's a hoot!! 🦉
@Minster2012 whoop ivf buddies to huddle round🐧
Just sat waiting for a blood test in the gynae dept of the hospital so just responding to tagged in case I get called in. It's a pre assessment test before the lap. Seems the wait times aren't that bad after all if I'm being called in already!

@Haiyaa secretly hoping I either ovulate before the scan even (as we're abstaining atm) or I have more than 2 follicles again then I can do this cycle 😬 Have to get all my appointments booked with them tomorrow so we're ready if I we are going for it

@paintfairy whoop whoop! On my Hycosy they made me take antibiotics in front of them after the procedure but didn't have any to take home

@Crazydoglady123 oh how complicated! I hope it all works out!
@Juno231 Google says they mainly only give them if previous history of PID or other things. So it doesn't seem standard across the board. Really seems to vary. I asked my friend and she said she wasn't given anything (different trust to me) so 🤷‍♀️

@Lililou hello! Welcome home! Good luck on this next journey. Fingers crossed it'll be a short bus visit 😘

@Minster2012 god you are made of strong stuff. I am so glad that today is brighter, hope you're enjoying your walk! X

@Madeoftea welcome. So sorry to hear of your MMC 😘

@paintfairy good news on getting the HSG booked!

@2alreadywantanother happy paddies day! 🍀

@clolo you prob know as much as me atm!! So my understanding is that's it's get stuff ready on this cycle to go on the next as long as it fits in with them, that's the impression I got on the phone earlier, so take northisterone from day 21 so they can start to manage when I have my next bleed then they take over from there but tbh your guess is as good as mine til I speak to the nurses now we know when my period came 🤣😂

@Madeoftea hello welcome! Sorry to hear of your MMC, we have a lovely group here you are in good company

@Crazydoglady123 so have you already started?! God I'm behind I'm so sorry 😝

@blackcurrantqueen you know it babes!

I can start IVF this cycle regardless of the Clomid outcome 🥳 so we'll be starting around the same time @Minster2012. I'm CD7 today so down regs start CD21

Was racking my brain for an embarrassing story and one landed right in my lap!

My dd found a pregnancy test while rummaging through my bedside drawer last night, didn't say a word to us. Proceeded to take it to school, show all her friends and teachers and is proudly announcing she is getting a baby brother or sister. I'm mortified and livid! We haven't told people yet and one of the teachers is my partners niece! I will now have to go see my mum on Friday to tell her before the little brat does!

I'm not sure what to lecture her on first... stealing or being a little sneak! She had put it back in my handbag thinking she would get away with it! 🤬🤬🤬🤬

@gem176 omg what a little sod!!!! More surprised she knew what it was tbh 🤣🤣🤣

@Gem176 omg! I don't know what you should punish, what an announcement

@Madeoftea I'm afraid @Kirky658 is right, you need to be a bit mad to fit with us but with that story I think you will

@2alreadywantanother happy paddy's day!! Woooooo
Get the Guinness on!!!

@Gem176 that's fucking hilarious!!! 😹🙀brilliant DD!!!

@paintfairy whoop whoop on hsg!

@Crazydoglady123 you know more about it than me so are you classing the northisterone as the down reg? If so then very close yes! And you tried to work out the dates didn't you? (Btw it might not be to that exact schedule btw as it has to be fluid based on the scans) so let's see your dates again?? So good to be huddling with you guys too!! @notyetamumbuttrying OMG btw what happened with that lady oh your other thread?? With the one egg/embryo?? Did it take?? 🤞🏻I'm now addicted to this surrogacy programme too @paintfairy 😝is it bad that I'm pleased it didn't take first time with one insem wise with of them?? Fertile bitch 🤣

@Catherinettc how long now?? I can't believe there are babies now!! So cool!!

I think @Madeoftea is mad also shhhhh that's good though 🤪😜

@Gem176 omg !! Fuming 🙈

@Minster2012 I haven't watched it yet but I will do. And 🤣
No- I think it makes it more realistic. Not being funny but it gives the wrong impression when it all just works. Like my poor DH who took it to be a given.
@Gem176 omg! Yes I would be mortified and furious. Although my head questioned why you held onto random pregnancy tests. 🤣 How old is DD?

@Minster2012 it sadly did not take 😞

@Gem176 oh no that's so bad!!! How old is she?
