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

@Florence13 don't be hard on yourself though, it's natural to be nervous, but we can try help you pass the time of day 😚🤪😊

@Somatronic hmmm yes a nice hot bath, face mask, massage from OH/DH maybe? It sucks ass so much just trying and no joy, how long have you been TTC again?

@Sausage1990 we'll let you off don't worry! Hope you feel ok!

@DKDK123 on your test/no test, do the drs actually say much about the CPs /take them into consideration other than "lose weight"
(Totally rude) cos if so then def test so you can add to the stats and photo it I'd say. If they don't then maybe not if it will make you upset? Omg

@Crazydoglady123 That totally sucks. Like yeah clomid is really not your friend, and those follicles are big I think? I'm sure the levels they look for before trigger are around 18/19mm? No wonder your ovary is huge? They shouldn't need you to ovulate though, I didn't ovulate last time (in 2018) and I had northisterone and they started from the bleed that ensued? But it wasn't a fresh cycle though that's the thing but they were going to start me early in this cycle (taking northisterone from day 16 to being on a bleed?) so I would say it's easily feasible if they give you northisterone they could manage it surely??? I've received my parcel thank you! I've sent a message xx

@DKDK123 sorry you're in such a shitty conundrum, like @Minster2012 said I would probably test but if you're unsure can maybe hold out until after AF overdue? I get the 2 lines filling you with dread. If I get a BFP again I can't say I'll be excited and that's horrible to say but the stark reality with losses for some people. Sending love 💕

@Crazydoglady123 thats crap! Do they have no solutions to help things ?

Crazydoglady123 · 27/03/2021 18:59

@Minster2012 they're massive...horse size apparently! My IVF consultant said on my appointment I can start my buserelin as long as I've ovulated... I'm so annoyed I can't speak to anyone. I feel so worried. I'm scared to do anything in case my ovary explodes now 😐 Pleased the parcel arrived quick

@bez91 I don't know yet... the private scan is just a stand alone sonographer and the Gynae unit at the hospital I'm at is closed and my IVF clinics reception is closed till Monday 😫

BlondePotter · 27/03/2021 19:06

Oh @Florence13 congratulations 😍😍 FC it's super sticky for you xx

@Crazydoglady123 horse sized follicles?! That's insane, I hope it's not painful when/if you do ovulate 🙏🙏🙏

BlondePotter · 27/03/2021 19:07

@Juno231 I read the Seville 2015 back door comment in a posh voice too 🤣🤣 fortunately my DH has never been interested in that hole. I tried it once when I was 19 and the guy put it back in the vag to finish, I ended up with a horrendous kidney infection so NEVER again!

Kirky658 · 27/03/2021 19:12

@florence13 omg congrats!!!! Fingers crossed for the stickiest of beans babe xxx

Katao · 27/03/2021 19:20

@paintfairy @2020mission @MartyMcShy i thought blue too 😂 must be all those period pad ads with the blue liquid 😂 thank god not!

@Somatronic sorry about the bfn.

Katao · 27/03/2021 19:28

@DKDK123 I think I'd rather know but I've not been where you are so really can't advise. 5 cps is by no means an insignificant number though so think you are already at that stage and should have been offered more than being told to lose weight.

@Crazydoglady123 you poor thing that's awful for you.

Minster2012 · 27/03/2021 19:30

@Crazydoglady123 horse size 🐎oh god yeah maybe just stay still?!! Obs that's not feasible but hmmmm totally get your fear. I don't get why you have to ovulate though?

@BlondePotter it wasn't just me for the posh voice then! A kidney infection?? Seeeeee it's just not right.

@MartyMcShy @paintfairy @Katao @2020mission the blue dye I'm picturing the stuff that goes in toilets on a pad now 🤣😂 (looblues)

Prep done for date night. DH says he's playing online poker designs after. Hmmm

@Franklydear that looks gorgeous I want to go to the beach. Too far for us to be local but usually we do 😔

OP posts:
paintfairy · 27/03/2021 19:34

@Katao yeah I wondered if it was the adverts? 🤔
@Crazydoglady123 I actually laughed at your horse size follicle rant because it's that ridiculous I could hear it being said out loud. But obviously it's not funny. Is that not dangerous? And can they not give you something to make it release? But then I'm not sure you even want it to! Maybe your body knows this? Ffs. Not good at all.

Crazydoglady123 · 27/03/2021 19:40

Thank you @BlondePotter @Katao

@Minster2012 I'm staying in bed now till Monday. Thankfully it's DS weekend at his dads so child free.

@paintfairy I don't think I want it to rupture but then I don't want them getting any bigger. Even my mares follicles didn't get to 50mm! I think have three over 30mm and two 20mm ones all on the same ovary.

I honestly have no idea how worried I should be. I'm going to try see if I can contact any gynaecology wards tomorrow at my local hospitals. I've also found my NHS consultant on Instagram and LinkedIn so have private messaged him. Whether he'll reply or not but I'm desperate 🙄

2alreadywantanother · 27/03/2021 19:44

Hi ladies. Feel like in litterly just hanging on to the back of the bus and missing all 🙈 6dpo today and all the signs say in ovulating bar the cm. Opk (clearblue) twinges, rhr and bbt. Question re bbt, clocks foung forward tonight. I normally take mine at 7.15am do I continue to at that time or what? Any advice

Hope ur all well

paintfairy · 27/03/2021 20:06

@BlondePotter holes are not for swapping! Definitely don't do that.
@Crazydoglady123 I don't think I'd want it to rupture either. What a nightmare!
@Franklydear the beach looks lovely!
@Minster2012 blue loo things? 🤣🤣🤣

We dtd earlier which I think was a mistake. I'm now bleeding. 🙄 I couldn't go without any longer though! Looks like I have to go without again for a bit longer.
@2alreadywantanother do it at the time you usually wake up i guess? An hour shouldn't knock it out much, and if it'll carry on being that time then it will still look consistent.

2alreadywantanother · 27/03/2021 20:08

@paintfairy thanks was just wondering as you have to do it around the same time each day that its gona be an hr earlier tomorrow

Madeoftea · 27/03/2021 20:19

@Florence13 congratulations lovely! Definitely not insensitive, it gives me hope! ♥️

After a slight bit of spotting I think AF might be on her way for me. First one since my mc. I have none of my normal symptoms but I hope she comes ASAP so my cycle can get back to normal.

Katao · 27/03/2021 20:31

@paintfairy what do you mean by bleeding?. Not to frighten you but i was told spotting was ok but anything you would consider flow was not and to go to the gp/a&e

Florence13 · 27/03/2021 20:54

Thank you so much for all the congratulations ladies I really appreciate it.

@Minster2012 aww thank you going to need it to get through the first trimester I feel like time is going to move incredibly slowly.

@DKDK123 I completely understand that hun I think it is a personal thing on whether you feel you can test or not. But also understand seeing the two lines doesn’t fill you with the happiness and excitement it should.

@Crazydoglady123 oh hun what an awful situation to be in a complete ticking time bomb.

@Madeoftea sorry to hear you think af is on her way but I have conceived cycle after my first af following MC.

Crazydoglady123 · 27/03/2021 21:09

Had a reply on Instagram off my consultant and he said they should go down and that I need another scan in two weeks time which he'll book Monday. If I don't feel well then I need to go A&E. I asked about the buserelin and he said it'll shrink the follicles when I start taking it so just to get through to Wednesday now 🙏

Minster2012 · 27/03/2021 21:33

@paintfairy are you meant to abstain after the hsg?

@Madeoftea ooooo I hope so for you then & you could be the next @Florence13 straight away again! How long has it been for you since your MC?

@Crazydoglady123 that's great detective work!! Well done and so are you still to take the buserlin on day 21 then is that the plan is that weds? So you don't need to ovulate it's ok? Bigggggg hugs for you but you stay chilled in bed 😘

OP posts:
paintfairy · 27/03/2021 21:33

@Crazydoglady123 phew! Bodies are clever things and obviously it knew ovulating would be bad!
@Katao it was bright red but only a bit. I think maybe dtd upset things. It was more than I've had so far but nothing like full flow and I've just been and checked and its just brown and only a tiny bit now. Sex ban for me! 🙈

paintfairy · 27/03/2021 21:35

@Minster2012 I've actually no idea? They never said anything.

Crazydoglady123 · 27/03/2021 21:39

Hope you feel better @paintfairy!

Yeah @Minster2012 @paintfairy I think too having a Google I wouldn't ovulate now as they're likely follicular cysts (man my body loves a cyst!). I'm just concerned how many big ones on my ovary that it doesn't twist or they rupture but yep buserelin Wednesday and get rid of these fookers hopefully!

paintfairy · 27/03/2021 21:46

@Crazydoglady123 let's hope so! Honestly! Bloody drs. Useless. Maybe never take that stuff again?! Some people are just more sensitive to things than others. I worry about them stimulating slightly for iui, as I respond well to things and i reckon it'll be too much.....
@Minster2012 good old Google. You had me wondering then! It says perhaps best wait 24 hours (been 2 days) but otherwise, no, it's fine. Good job! I didn't really think and they never said anything.
