Pitos pequeños en sandwiches & STILL hunting for the damn eggs - TTC Bus 37

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

@Crazydoglady123 glad you're good! Yes very excited for tomorrow now. So much so that I've been awake since 630am! 🤯
@Juno231 my fingers are crossed 🤞🏾 😬
@Dollybird89 hope you enjoyed your wine last night! Fuzzy headed today?!
@Katao early rise for me this morning too! Thanks for the funny thread, will have a read in a bit 😄

Juno231 · 05/04/2021 08:14

@katao thank you I'll need that thread today!

@paintfairy get that iui going...

11DPO and BFN as per usual. So that's no 2021 babies for me, and I hate that next cycle is a write off 😬. Going to a friends birthday bbq today and she's one that always complains about her two kids 🙄

notyetamumbuttrying · 05/04/2021 08:19

@Juno231 ah I'm so sorry honey ♥️♥️

lucyrp · 05/04/2021 08:30

Hey girls! Sorry I'm getting worse and worse at keeping up with you all! Yesterday was DS 6th birthday and we had a lovely day in the garden in the sun. We did a little party tea and I think he really enjoyed himself. Best we could do at the moment 🥰🥰 the Easter bunny came too of course!🐰

Hope everyone had a lovely Easter! 🐣🍫

Minster2012 · 05/04/2021 08:33

I'm so sorry @Juno231 that really sucks, and the bbq situation too massive massive hugs for you

@Dollybird89 loving your wine, and i also always love seeing what you have on your tv, it looks like porn! 😋

I shall enjoy reading that thread with my porridge this morning too @Katao thank you!

So as it's Easter how do ppl eat the creme eggs? I'm a non shameful licker of the chocolate then scooping the insides out with my tongue, but I swear it's got harder nowadays!? And smaller, as all chocolate has!!

@Juno231 I’m so sorry to hear about the bfn and BBQ situation

@Katao will have a read of that thread nose

@Minster2012 aww good news he was alright after his bike ride hope you managed to get some. I eat creme eggs the same as you but also agree they are getting smaller.

paintfairy · 05/04/2021 09:04

@Katao I'll have a look!
@Juno231 ah crap. Really?! You need to stop charting. They lie to you! 🤬 Maybe your friends kids really are horrible? 🤣 Sit and console yourself that you don't have to deal with them? And note her mistakes so that yours will not be that way!

@Minster2012 I've got a galaxy Easter egg, so I can't help on the creme egg front! 🤣

DKDK123 · 05/04/2021 09:04

@Franklydear mega brownie points from your DH yesterday!

@Dollybird89 You've all got me intrigued with the hellofresh now, if you've still got some boxes I'll pm you my email and give it a try. How's everyone else getting on that's tried it, any meal recommendations?

@Juno231 bfn sucks 😔 is it at least a bbq with alcohol involved to make up for it? It's definitely not bbq weather where I am, got sunburn on my arms 2 days ago and today its frost with snow forecast for later!

@Minster2012 I'm not a big fan of cream eggs but I like the caramel ones and it's def a bite the top off and scoop the caramel out with my tongue 😂

I'm very excited this week as its the Easter holidays so I'm off work but DS is still at nursery mon-wed, every other holiday either he's been sick and off nursery or I've been ill or covid has shut the nursery so 3 days of me time I'm a tad beside myself! Have already been for a lovely relaxing 2mile walk this morning. I love my boy but walking with a toddler is definitely not relaxing!

Franklydear · 05/04/2021 09:16

@Minster2012 I used to eat them like that years ago, but for some reason, I stopped liking them and now just buy lots of £1 eggs to share, ds loves it too, so when do you count ovulation then?
@Juno231 I am so sorry, I feel your pain
@Dollybird89 glad you enjoy yourself, I might need to open my first bottle of the year too, it feels like hard work
@DKDK123 et al, yes, he did, it’s the little everyday things....

Vil10 · 05/04/2021 09:22

@larrythelizard it's hard though isn't it!! You have no idea what it's going to look like, it's just a gamble!!

@Juno231 so sorry it's bfn, sending hugs x

@Minster2012 I also lick out the inside of a creme egg!! Bite the top off then lick out the insides then suck the rest of the chocolate! Only on this thread will eating chocolate be made to sound sexual😂

@DKDK123 I'm off too for 2 weeks! Can't wait to get loads of little jobs done that I've been putting off!

So I've lost half a stone since the 22nd and I probably put it all back on yesterday with the amount I ate and drank at my mothers bbq, but that's what easters for isn't it! Another day of eating chocolate today then back to it tomorrow! Hope everyone had a lovely a Easter🐣🐰

DKDK123 · 05/04/2021 09:38

@Vil10 I've got a list of to do jobs to work through too. Was going to start with the fence painting after getting fence envy with the photos last week, but the forecast of snow has put a stop to that! 🙈 So it's college work today and then redecorating the living room tomorrow. Hopefully the weather perks up next week to get the fence and shed painted.

@Katao I'm going to have to read that post in sittings. I'm crying so much I can't read any more. 🤣

Did you read this one that linked from it?
www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/3178898-DH-embarrassed-by-my-sensitivity

I've had to stop reading the replies to that too. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

MartyMcShy · 05/04/2021 10:07

Sorry about the bfn @Juno231. It's hard not to get your hopes up esp when your chart looked so good. I don't know about hsg magic...my rhr is on the way down and af is imminent. It doesn't get easier every month.

I'm not a big fan of creme eggs @Minster2012 but I reckon you have the right approach. My dd has turned into a total chocolate monster this Easter!

@dkdk123, that sounds like bliss! Walking with a toddler is one of the least relaxing thing you can do 😂 enjoy the time to yourself-make sure you take time to relax!

Thanks for the link @Katao, need something to cheer me up so will get reading!

notyetamumbuttrying · 05/04/2021 10:08

@Katao @Franklydear @paintfairy all amazing threads 😂 the michaelango one though, I just can't! Too funny 😁

Justanothercyster · 05/04/2021 10:12

@Juno231 sorry about the bfn :( still not out though x

@Dollybird89 sorry about af, but I suppose it's also good as it means your body is ready to go again x

Justanothercyster · 05/04/2021 10:18

Loving the AIBUs 🤣🤣 "screamed at the Michaelangelo". Honestly the replies have made my day, I love how she doesn't even acknowledge them but just further explains how her heart was breaking 😂

notyetamumbuttrying · 05/04/2021 10:20

@Justanothercyster it's the funniest part 😂

2020mission · 05/04/2021 10:23

@Juno231 aww I was really hoping it would be your time! At least no Christmas/new year due date now... have to think of the small positives every time it's BFN ☹️ hopefully we'll have some luck in the next few months 🤞 I'd just focus on the BBQ food 😋 🌭 zone out from the moaning parent!

@larrythelizard haha I similarly have in my head a February due date of 2/2/22 😆 wouldn't that be good?

Minster2012 · 05/04/2021 10:25

Ooooo yes the galaxy caramel eggs are the best @paintfairy I actually prefer them to creme eggs too tbh but not had any (yet) I'm glad we are all in agreement that scoopingbis the way forwards @DKDK123 @Vil10 wow you've done amazing!! Keep it up! Don't worry bout the drinking I've done the same

It's FREEZING HERE today I'm dog walking & im about to give up as my ears & hands so cold

@Franklydear I was literally about to ask ppl the same thing on the ovulation, no idea so got a static on Saturday obviously o don't temp so can't confirm, and couldn't use ICs to confirm either as was weeing too much. apps put OV same day. I mean it doesn't really matter, I have second Covid jab next sat so that will prob mess things up anyway. Awful timing but hey Ho

Any ideas ppl? Sunday?

Dollybird89 · 05/04/2021 11:04

@notyetamumbuttrying deffo fuzzy head today... boy do I feel rough! Got snow here too so not looking forward to going out in the cold later. Af is still quite light so I'm expecting it to be a long one again... just hope it's not 5 weeks coz I need some 🍆action .. get our new mattress tomorrow.. can't wait!

Franklydear · 05/04/2021 11:10

@paintfairy, escorted out by security!

Katao · 05/04/2021 11:20

Sorry about the bfn @Juno231.

I don't eat cream eggs @Minster2012 so no answer there but as for your eggs I don't temp and usually just count day after LH surge as ovulation

Glad some of you are enjoying the thread. I literally lay in bed crying laughing at that last night. @paintfairy I had heard that other thread referenced before but never linked so I've saved it for later 😁 could not go on, my sides were sore! 🤣 the dog named piss 🤣🤣🤣

Dollybird89 · 05/04/2021 11:31

@minster2012 I forgot to say.. it was a music video on my tv not porn lol

Minster2012 · 05/04/2021 11:45

@Dollybird89 hope your head gets better & ya ya yaaaaaa on the music video!! 😜🤪🤪😜

@Katao some are good will take a good look later! And yeah that's what I was thinking for OV, yesterday
