Bing Bing the BFP bus is back!

Last bus we got some great results and now it’s a REAL Easter 🐣hunt so let’s make like 🐰s and jump on the 🍆

Oh but we’ve packed up the 🥪🌭🌮Cos we can do that soon! A picnic, and in our sandwiches we’ve got some weird things...little 🍆conchions, pickles, crisps, KETCHUP?? Say what?? Whatever you want in your bread bring it to the bus!

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 🐣🌈.

Hop on the bus, give us your best embarrassing story and grab a ticket, we are TTC in very weird ways and usually talking about most other things 🍞🥨🥞🍔

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

@paintfairy i wasn't told anything about abstaining after, just beforehand. That sounds ok so if it was just a bit. I did have red spotting for a couple of days.

Juno231 · 27/03/2021 21:51

@paintfairy I asked at my hsg and small Indian man who gave my foof a wipe down awkwardly told me that I could have sex as soon as I left the room 😬

I swear the dye was iodine coloured for me? I def spotted dye for the rest of the day but it was nowhere near as much as I thought.

Minster2012 · 27/03/2021 21:58

@paintfairy I would say ok then if the others weren't told to abstain & only spotting, stay off google!! (Easier said than done of course) do you not know the loo blue things?? Tumbleweed please 🤣😂

@Crazydoglady123 dont. Move. Til. Weds. Is that possible?? 🤣😂

Minster2012 · 27/03/2021 21:59

@Juno231 I take it the guy then didn't follow you out of the room & be like "you can have sex now, I'm free!"

OP posts:
paintfairy · 27/03/2021 22:01

@Juno231 I don't think I'd have felt like doing it on leaving the room. 🤣 I never saw the dye so I've no idea what colour it was. They told me it was iodine based though, so you'd expect it to be that colour maybe?
@Katao i suppose its to be expected. Things will be delicate. So no full day sessions in a hurry! 🤣 Hopefully it'll subside soon.

larrythelizard · 27/03/2021 22:01

👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 @Somatronic sorry to hear that.

@DKDK123 haha at jobby jabber! A kid in my year pooed himself on a bus trip to Belgium in Yr 8. Obviously he didn't shake that off for the rest of his school years!

Oh god @Crazydoglady123 hope it happens before they get any bigger...sounds horrible. Good service for the consultant to reply on Instagram though!

Beach looks lovely @Franklydear. I'm desperate to go somewhere (anywhere) next week as the stay local rule is lifted on Monday in England but DH being a bit boring about it all. Humph.

I'm not that exact on BBT @2alreadywantanother - I take it as a general trend rather than anything else...so I'm not too worried on the time!

🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 @Madeoftea

I met a friend today and she told me she's preggo and due in the autumn (I bumped into her last weekend and did have my suspicions). She has a DS the same age as mine and I'm insanely jealous. Annoyed at myself for being jealous but humph. Managed to not think about it with a fairly busy day but now it's just on my mind. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

Franklydear · 27/03/2021 22:29

@larrythelizard stay local starts on Monday, it's stay home that ends, we are insanely lucky to have this on our doorstep,
Cm starting to be pinkish so, that's it I guess, the good news is that on the next predicted Fw, we are both on holiday and the weather is meant to be crap,

Minster2012 · 27/03/2021 22:30

Oh @larrythelizard that sucks really bad, we'd all be jealous. I've been there, it's a horrible jealous pang then you feel guilty but it's only human, we understand hun xxx

OP posts:
Katao · 27/03/2021 22:36

@larrythelizard oh that's hard, especially with the same age dc. Sorry.

@Juno231 🤣 as soon as you leave the room, awkward! Mine was definitely clear dye, she said so and i definitely leaked some. Have to say a coloured one would be a bit disturbing to see afterwards 😬
@paintfairy ya it's all been poked and prodded. I don't think we dtd until the 3rd day after and all was fine then anyway.

Madeoftea · 27/03/2021 23:23

@Minster2012 thanks, it's been a month this weekend so it's about time but I don't have any cramps or symptoms. Maybe my body's messing with me, who knows!

@larrythelizard I think we're all jealous without wanting to be hun, it still feels unfair. For me the sad feeling overrides the happy ones so I just have to let myself feel it and then it goes and I'm over the moon for them. I found out a friend was pregnant the week of my mc and she told me she wasn't even trying and wasn't even sure she wanted it, cue me crying and miserable for days.

Franklydear · 28/03/2021 05:17

Wide awake, very inconvenient, dh had his vaccine yesterday afternoon so I expect him to be useless tomorrow/today, I should be asleep like the rest of the household, af hasn’t show, although I feel so wet I am considering a pad, boobs full up overnight yesterday, but they seem to have gone down a little, felt full of hormones yesterday, I really don’t expect to be pregnant and I had every symptom going/absent before so not symptom spotting, just a bit baffled and mostly annoyed at being awake

Franklydear · 28/03/2021 05:25

Tell the truth, who missed my middle of the night ramblings? had such a lovely day yesterday, felt truly happy after such a crappy month, had a lay in, easy breakfast with ds, bit of telly, bit of housework, grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch, gone to beach, great weather, back home and homemade chicken nuggets for dinner, spend a bit of time looking at the fish et al in the tank with ds, bed, news, ds asleep, head to pillow, gone
Why am I telling you all this? your guess is as good as mine.....

bez91 · 28/03/2021 06:28

@Franklydear ditto in the wide awake club.
Been awake since about 4am (suppose 3am with the clocks going forward)

Got up and tested, BFN. Feel pretty gutted more so this month don't know why 😔. Got back into bed with DH for a bit and sobbed which isn't like me, had a bit of a TTC chat before being gatecrashed by DD 🙄 any room up top on the bus?

lucyrp · 28/03/2021 08:02

@Dollybird89 I haven't had an email from hello fresh yet am I supposed to have ? Also did you see McFly were on Saturday night takeaway last night ? Z

Kirky658 · 28/03/2021 08:27

@paintfairy I remember after my dye test during my lap, my pee was literally green and blue for 2 days!!! Lol hope the spotting settles soon.

Minster2012 · 28/03/2021 08:48

Morning ladies, happy proper farmers spring time!

@Madeoftea let's hope it is AF coming for you, it can really mess you around & that sounds really awful with your friend, honestly we would have all cried, have you spoken with her since?

@Franklydear I miss your midnight ramblings, and I miss there being @Skip86 to answer too, I hope she's ok - we don't expect Skip back on the bus but just want to know we are sending love. Anyway @Franklydear so DH useless and you symptom spotting in the early hours, how you feeling now? Have we seen a picture of your fish recently? 🐠🐟🐡dare I ask how DH is?

@bez91 ah darling, big hugs to you lovely, it's really hard, and we all sob about how it should be easy, why isn't it us, it's not fair. how was your DH with it? The top deck is MASSIVE, lots of room for my lovelies

How are the other newbies? @Lexber how are you?
@WicketBasket you ok?

Not heard from @MichelleScarn, @beast0fBODMAS & @Billythecat for a while?

OP posts:
larrythelizard · 28/03/2021 08:51

Ah @bez91 sending you a hug of solidarity. It's shit but I'm with you.

@Franklydear insomnia is the worse. Sounds like a blissful day yesterday, you have to hang on to the good. I think I got my government catchphrases mixed up...! When can you test and be out of limbo?

Thanks all for the solidarity x

Florence13 · 28/03/2021 08:54

Morning ladies,

@Minster2012 my MC was at the very start of January.

@Franklydear aww sounds like you had a lovely day but sorry you were wide awake super early.

@larrythelizard sorry to hear your feeling that way but I’ve been insanely jealous of several friends particularly the one who got pregnant about the same time as my MC as it all just felt so unfair.

@bez91 sorry about the result this morning.

Vil10 · 28/03/2021 09:04

@Florence13 Thankyou lovely!! Omggg that's not insensitive at all!! Congratulations!! Amazing news❤️

@DKDK123 I mean I wouldn't complain if that was the reason😂😂 I was surprised that I'd lost that much since Monday, I usually lose about 2, 3 at the most, that's very interesting though🤔😂 can't believe all the doctors have said to you is "lose weight", how rude!! It must be so hard for you testing but if testing and maybe having another cp would help push the doctors along and not impact you too much mentally then I'd maybe test?x

@larrythelizard oh that's rubbish sorry!! I've had so many situations like that!! It's okay to feel sad and low about it though x

@bez91 so sorry for your bfn! But sometimes a cry is good!! You're more than welcome to join us up here x

Minster2012 · 28/03/2021 09:14

@Vil10 when did you DTD around when you think your ovulation might have been? I was going to ask yesterday

I was totally oblivious to the changing regulation on meeting ppl outside etc, maybe we can go to the beach soon, we can def have a bbq outside if we can meet households outside? How do the girls wee though??

OP posts:
Vil10 · 28/03/2021 09:21

@Minster2012 well I had ewcm on the 13th so I presume I was ovulating that weekend or a few days after, we DTD the 13th and 14th, I've had very light and mild af type cramps on Friday and I was convinced I was going to start yesterday but didn't, but I'm on CD30 now and nothing😳 also a big fat yes to a beach bbq!! And I just wild wee, I drink so much and I must have a weak bladder because whenever I go for a walk, I can go for a wee as I'm leaving the house and I can guarantee I'll have to wild wee at least once on the walk😂

Franklydear · 28/03/2021 09:22

Morning ladies, managed to get back to sleep, I don’t expect it but would love @skip back
Cd1 surprise this morning, not really I felt it coming all night
@Minster2012 he still sleeping, I only just woke up, we are not early risers on the weekend anymore, yeeiiii, I only expect him to be useless based on my own experience of the vaccine, and then if he is able to do anything, bonus!
I’ll clean up the tank today, I’ll take a couple of pics, see if I manage to photograph my very shy shrimps, and the snails, they’re cute and usually hang together

Franklydear · 28/03/2021 09:23

@Minster2012on the rules, you can move further, stay local rather than home, and two households or rule of six if more, already planning play dates in the park, please don’t rain!

Dollybird89 · 28/03/2021 09:55

@lucyrp have u checked spam folder? I double checked email I sent it too (I copied and pasted) I can send a reminder on it in a few days but not let me yet.
I saw the performance lol I never miss a thing hahah... I got a mcfly bear come the other day... well worth the money lol

Dollybird89 · 28/03/2021 09:56

Still a big kid lol
