All aboard Minster's Ovulation Tea Party Bus - TTC away from cat poo Bus 38

[Minster2012]

I hereby invite you all to Minster’s First ever Eggy Tea Party...🥖🍍🍔🍦🍰🍫🧁held to celebrate the even slightest whiff of an Easter Ovulatory event...

Don’t fear Boris, it will be outside, socially distanced at various points of the UK & Ireland (other parts of the globe may attend), whatever the 🌞❄️⛄️we are up for it & often the sperm & 🥚stay apart at our gatherings too, even though we don’t want them too 🤣.

It’s a bring your own event, private chefs & hello fresh/gousto boxes may attend, pics of your offerings encouraged...🥦🌽🌮🥘🍝🍻🍹🍸🧉🍾☕️🍵🧃🥤🧋

Get your glad rags on ladies Cos we are having a party 💃🏼👯‍♀️👫& we can go OUT now! (Well we are done with stopping in aren’t we?)

This bus is the one where TTC happens in many different forms, shagging conventionally, unconventionally, with the help of scientific intervention, IUI/ICSI/Clomid/IVF & even just watching from the top of the bus 👀. It doesn’t matter if you’ve been trying for days, weeks, months or like some of us we’ve been around each other for so long we can’t bear to leave, nothing is TMI and there’s never a silly question...

Hell we KNOW TTC is tough, lots of us have had heart ache & are chasing 🌈so we are there for each other, as well as trying to have laughs along the way 🥰☺️

Oh and we like an embarrassing story to get your ticket for entry please!

And if you see mention of my blog then blame these guys they made me do it...#shamelessplug

What will April bring? 🐣

@Minster2012 thank you. Must say, I'm looking forward to trying them. OH said about what takeaway for my birthday but tbh they look a damn bit nicer! If your bodies come this far, you never know in a few months it may happen naturally for you and even if it doesn't at least you're in a better position for IVF. I've just made my protein lunch...all for helping fuel my body to heal this cyst 😂

@2020mission will do! Have just private messaged you a 50% off code!

@2020mission with the discount I'd always go for max meals though and then just use them for packed lunches or whatever. I've been known to freeze some of them :)

@paintfairy I'm sorry AF showed but also super excited about your IUI! I keep wondering if I should have gone for some privately after all.

@Juno231 well I've called them. No idea when they let me know if it's happening or not? I'm in the book and they'll let me know if they can fit me in, is what she said. I can see it being a stressful summer! But I do think you need to come and sort my garden out! 🤣
All the healthy food photos! Meanwhile @Crazydoglady123 I've eaten a packet of crisps for my lunch. 🙈

This is hilarious 🤣 @paintfairy I feel you will love this! Let me know when you read the part that made me guffaw 😜
Glad you're on the system for iui now, hope it's not long for the call!

To want to faint in McDonalds? www.mumsnet.com/Talk/amibeing_unreasonable/4217531-To-want-to-faint-in-McDonalds

@Crazydoglady123 nice healthy lunch 👍🏾 I had leftover risotto 😋

@notyetamumbuttrying omg the comments! 🤣 I can't believe there are already so many. Kind of want the OP to reply now, but I doubt they will. People are crackers.

@Katiekattty what are you studying? And could you do a day of DTD to day then a night off then weds/Thursday if you get a peak as that's more likely to be actual OV? 🤔

@Crazydoglady123 that looks lush and precisely it might just be it needed a bit of time to heal, but I have have 2 other lots of ivf drugs in the mean time so maybe that also kick started things a bit?! Who knows but if I get a couple of normal cycles I will be happy, IF I find out I ovulated I will be over the moon even if we don't catch it which is still very unlikely 😊

@paintfairy see calories consumed whilst on AF come under "0 by medicinal" right surely?? And that's great bout IUI!

Oooo off to read that thread!!

Want a MacDonalds now 🤣😬I blame YOU @notyetamumbuttrying

That thread has got to be a wind up! Love a quarter pounder with cheese meal 🤤 or when they have the jerk chicken burger, but my guilty pleasure is a double sausage and egg McMuffin! Only have about 3 a year though (breakfast that is).

@blodyn91 OMG happy due day 🥳🙌🏻where's the little 🐮🐏🐑???

@Haiyaa I don't think we have 3 times a year even but now blatantly fancy one especially with meat free meals this week 🤣😂

@paintfairy the comments are amazing 🤩 😂 she's only replied once, I want more!! 🤪
@Minster2012 I want one too 😂
@Haiyaa they're all my favs too! Good taste 😏

@2020mission thank you, I very much hope so 😖

@notyetamumbuttrying omg that thread 😂😂😂 "how do you feel about the Sistine Chapel?" 100% best comment on there 🤣🤣

@blodyn91 hope you're doing ok! Keep us posted 🎉

@Justanothercyster I literally ugly snorted at that comment 😂

Hiit workout ladies.... I just got super pumped when I saw emkfit has just done a dirty dancing one! Can't wait to try that one! @minster2012 you game?? Deffo the motivation I needed to do some exercise today! 💪💪

@bez91 hahhaa that made me rofl, needed that today 😂 glad you got some!
@minster2012 @crazydoglady123 yummy food!!!!
@notyetamumbuttrying is it lap day tomorrow?! Sorry if I've got the wrong day but if so, all the best babe, you got this and please let us know what they find out ❤️😘
@dollybird89 that workout sounds fun!

I've had an absolutely awful first day back at work but have to say that DH has been an absolute gem, he's been up on the summerhouse roof and re felted it, made me a yummy lunch and kept me supplied with tea and snacks and then coaxed me out for a run together after work as the sun started to go down. Difficult run but I needed it!

Right then @Dollybird89 DH & I are gonna do your EMKfit challenge dirty dancing! Bring it on.

@Crazydoglady123 the taboulleh was nice, not sure meat & 2 veg loving 6'6" DH enjoyed it as much!
Salmon & pasta tomorrow then more meat free til Friday

@Minster2012 DTD is definitely not happening first day back in the pub and he’s not use anyone. I’m studying law not that I got much done today.

@vil10 wanted to share this with you, the ones in green are the countries most likely to be on the green list and Mexico is there!!! 🇲🇽❤️

@Kirky658 that’s very interesting, what will yellow mean?

@franklydear basically there's going to be 3 levels as far as we can tell, red = paying to quarantine in a hotel on return, yellow = quarantine on return but at home and you have to have two tests during the 10 days, and green is a test before and prior to departure from your destination x

Mmm I love tabbouleh @Minster2012 maybe I'll make that at the weekend...mmmm. We had chicken, red pepper, lemon and almond tray bake tonight and it was lush!

Ooh get on the EMKFit @Dollybird89 that sounds fun! I've been to the gym, went for the 7pm session, were only three of us and the PT man so I convinced someone from the 6pm class to stay on so there were more of us, safety in numbers and all that!!

I've had my day 21 bloods today, results should be on the patient portal within 48 hours and then follow up with the Dr next week. Will find out what is what, although I have been sleeping better and much hornier which gives me hope my progesterone levels are returning to what they should be (poor sleep and low libido are symptoms of low progesterone), and probably Sod's law as it cost me £60!!

@notyetamumbuttrying good luck fir the lap tomorrow lovely!! 🥰🤗😘

@Dollybird89 did you do the dirty dancing? DH & I just done it and he said "best music yet on this one", then shower & some more dirty dancing 🍆🍆🥳🙌🏻

@Katiekattty well a night off of ok you take some chill time, and from the law, the law can wait darling

@Kirky658 sorry for the shitty day but bless DH for sorting the roof (literally only just realised you have a summerhouse even if it is one with a leaky roof now I'm jealous too 🤔🤣) and then making you food and getting you out! Maybe he can stay as well as the dog?? 🤗😆and ooooooo looooooookkkkk @Vil10 go Mexico!!

@larrythelizard you get your results in 48 hours??? OMG?? Ahhh private?? I've got my bloods tomorrow but think I ovulated wayyyy before you 😬so think it's really too late, that's really interesting on the poor sleep /low libido, I have poor sleep but high libido so am I just screwed (literally?)🤔

@Kirky658 yeah it is hun, thank you! Yes, defo will 😘 ah sorry to hear about your bad day but sounds like Dh is being a top husband and made sure it improved! Good going with the running too, impressive! I don't even run and I'm far from pregnant 😂
@larrythelizard 48 hours is ace! Hope all goes ok
@Minster2012 thank you 😊 what bloods are you getting tomorrow?

Yeah private @Minster2012. Will see what they say anyway. Can't help with google diagnosing you...?! When is AF due??

Bloody impressive @Kirky658, get you with the decent length run!!

I have now got hair, eyebrows and eyelashes all booked in for the next few weeks 🥳🥳🥳 now I just need to lose the weight I put on courtesy of feeling sorry for myself post-migraine and I'll be ready for the world!

@minster2012 yeah I might keep him 🤣 the summerhouse is beautiful, we want to turn it into an outdoor gym/playroom eventually. The roof didn't leak thankfully the felt just ripped off in the windy weather a couple weeks ago.
@notyetamumbuttrying glad I didn't get the wrong day! Will be thinking of you 😘❤️
@larrythelizard thank you lovely, it was a hard slog but glad it's done! Walking rest day tomorrow, we are gonna walk doggo after work to see if we can get a cheeky drink in the pub 🍻😁 (non alc for me obvs)

@minster2012 I missed your post on here before I uploaded my insta one lol I totally had fun on that one.. though very uncoordinated 🤣
