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

minstermusings.co.uk for the blog that’s where the full stuff happens too explain my weird story & minstermusings on insta - some of our ladies have made special anonymous accounts so we can link up via me 🥰
If you want to sign up & get updates please do, please note your username if you comment shows up to others so maybe make it anonymous I won’t be offended 😂🤣(unless you are mean)

Story so far...

@Minster2012 what on earth? How did this happen?! We need to know what sorcery you used! 🤣
Congratulations! That's amazing! 🥳
@lucyrp the meat has short dates too. Maybe you are right! It's not really helpful though.

@Dollybird89 you've been kicked back??? What the fuck??

@DKDK123 that's really nice you had a good time with SIL & didn't need to worry

@Sausage1990 yessss to the 7 week scan that's fantastic! Heartbeat booooooomm 💓💓💓I'm shit scared got tbh, how did you get that viability scan if I could ask please?? 🤞🏻🙈😬I'm so so so so worried

@Catherinettc OMG yes let's get you into labour!! A wee Minster shock nudge. It was a wee shock to us too 😘and yes bloody cheaper way to do it (even with SHITLOADS of vitamins!)

A totally calm and collected 9 months cooking you say @blackcurrantqueen for the egg?? Just me that's gonna be freaking out 🤣🙈

@Missgoldilocks @minthumbugs I know it's a bloody strong line (off to google if a stronger lines means stickier??? 🤞🏻😂)

Guess that's me added to the "book ivf get a BFP? 🤔" just took us a few cheaper ivf practice runs @Justanothercyster thank you! And @Thinkingandblinking tomatoes for the win 🙌🏻

@KateColx im beyond overwhelmed. Think I'm in @Kirky658 worrying heart palpitations territory!

Shit @larrythelizard yeah does anyone know the maternity benefits of a bus driver??? Are they good? When can I leave? @Vil10 said she was taking over right! She said that THIS WEEK 🤣😂

Everyone @InkyPaper @Ltay2 @Katiekattty @TTCAbroad
@madeoftea @DKDK123 @BlondePotter im still pretty broken but
thank you soooooo much I'm massively overwhelmed with love from you all 💓🥳🥰@notyetamumbuttrying yup I'm still thinking it's not right. Still on knicker watch @Hopeful110 yep still in shock and now wanting macdonalds, least you aren't like that weird other woman that thread...did your OH make force go as a treat for the kids???

@Billythecat we need much more kitten pictures to match the pupdates please and hope you have a great virtual hen party 🥰💃🏼

@Juno231 thank you so so much darling, I'm really really worried, and want it for you all so so bad. Really feeling the love

@Franklydear you & @larrythelizard next right, you heard me 🙌🏻

@Justanothercyster thank you I might leave the grass this week whilst I try get my head screwed on, I've gotta call a lot of my teams and I'm shit shit scared. I gotta make it stick 😘

@amy2503 it's hard to answer that, I've never had a confirmed ovulation in my life, and I'm nearly 37 & I got told in 2017 my egg reserve was killed from chemo. this cycle is the first ever ovulation, last cycle I didn't (we don't think) and last year I had 2 rounds of ivf and 1 round meant to be in feb this year which was cancelled the day before which my last cycle was coming off the drugs for that. My hubby and I have never in our 10 years together been allowed TTC naturally Cos of chemo I've been on, only in between miscarriage and ivf when each time I was told I wasn't ovulating. That was may 2019. So is it one cycle or since 2019 or the cycles in between MMC & each ivf, where we did in theory TTC too 🤷🏼‍♀️who knows! But this one would be a hell of a lot cheaper than the £5,500 we were gonna spend on the next ivf we put off this month Cos of my 2nd Covid jab last week 🤣🙌🏻x

Finally something to thank Covid for??? Wtaf?? It was likely bedding in last weekend when I had my jab 🤔🙈

Need to try get DH to agree to the house now but it might make it easier! 💓

@Minster2012 as my mum says god hear you, I have creamy cm and gas and constipation, just don’t know but I guess a bit early to tell, sil is in labour, so new nephew soon...

Sausage1990 · 17/04/2021 18:13

@minster2012 I can only imagine the shock you're in but I understand the worry & anxiety. I've basically created my own little mantra to tell myself when I'm anxious or letting the doubting voices have too much space. It really helps me focus on a positive mental attitude. It is hard after loss but we will get through it.

Take your time to let the news sink in but definitely tell your teams so they can hopefully support you to keep this sticky beam. I got my viability scan via my EPU as I was known to them and they told me to get in touch and they'd book one due to my previous miscarriage. So I just called up & they booked it. My nurse has been amazing tbh and booked me in for a scan 9+4 to check we're still going strong. And the reason for that is previous miscarriage too although she said they're not really supposed to book for a 2nd scan with epu but after everything last time she said she was happy to - for which I am SOOOO grateful!!! I would maybe ask your fertility clinic for a scan. I'm sure there's some support available to you given the huge journey you've been on with them. Xx

Minster2012 · 17/04/2021 18:16

They are too flipping cute @Billythecat looks like they just wanna snuggle & play, the dream! 🥰

@Franklydear well I'm really hoping I'm just the start here ladies of a veritable flurry 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻ooooo new nephew that's really exciting too

So are we adding Covid jab to the must do list???
What did I do differently? Er ovulate 🤣, use the CB digital, catch the drunken swimmers & shove em back up in the cup?! Take ALL the vitamins on the planet (DH took the tomato one) drink all the ass fruit juice, talk dirty, raped DH when he wasn't interested. Made him have sex despite feeling hungover sick 😆, ate pineapple & Brazil nuts & drink baby aspirin 😬. Shit loads of sex!

Hmmmm
I'm so f ing scared

In the bath

Thank you @Sausage1990 my EPU stuff wasn't at my local hospital it was all at my oncology one which is 3 hour round trip. Will speak to my doctor hopefully they can advise, I'm keen for blood thinners too 🤞🏻😬

@Minster2012 I'm still not over your BFP, I'm so so happy for you❤️❤️❤️

Also girls we got to 13 pups!! But unfortunately one was born a tad deformed, it's head had grown to the side, they took it to the vets but they said it wouldn't be able to grow properly or walk so had to put it down! Very sad but still a litter of 12 is amazing, and even more amazing, all 12 are black and white!!! Our dog is black and white, the bitch is liver and white but we know only 10% of springers are black and white, we only expected 1 from the litter and we even said we think they'll all be liver and white, so very surprised!

Franklydear · 17/04/2021 18:24

Calm down dear, and get the laptop of the water (you’ll never remind me of this if the occasion comes) new nephew imminent, very excited, and a little bit jealous,

DOB78 · 17/04/2021 18:41

Sorry not up to speed with everyone but Minster2012 what amazing news!!!! So happy for you and your DH, I'll have a little drinkie drink for you 😘

bez91 · 17/04/2021 18:42

Not caught up since yesterday so had a quick look at last post....

@Minster2012 SHUT.THE.FUCKING. FRONT.DOOR a BFP 😬😬😬😬😬 congratulations absolutely made up for you!!!!!!

larrythelizard · 17/04/2021 18:43

@Minster2012 I get the fear, I was like that after my MMC. Just take it day by day - each day forward is a win. Also I would be hassling for a scan (or book a private one?). Your body is a literal medical marvel!!! Definitely (finally) something to thank covid for!

@Billythecat they're so cute!!

@Vil10 11 is bloody amazing! Good strong genes from your doggy daddy there if they all have his colouring!

Sausage1990 · 17/04/2021 18:49

@minster2012 I think we can add the covid vaccine haha I conceived a week after my 2nd jab... Haha It is definitely a coincidence but definitely proof that is doesn't effect fertility 👍🏻🌈

Clairey844 · 17/04/2021 18:53

@Minster2012 OMG WTF aaaarrrrgggghhh 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉. I honestly cannot tell you how happy I am for you; if anyone totally deserves it it's you. And what a bloody line for 12dpo.

Sorry but I have basically skipped/skim read most of the posts to find yours as I just went onto Instagram and saw your post so came on here to say congrat-a-bloody-lations xxxxx

Madz123 · 17/04/2021 19:09

Just quickly popping back from ages ago (currently 40+5 weeks) to say congratulations @Minster2012 such amazing news!

Minster2012 · 17/04/2021 19:10

@Vil10 🥰thank you darling, and 12 (ok so 13 but that's best of course if that's what they think), that's so amazing!! And only 10% of sprinters are black and whites?? Did NOT know that! Learning 🙌🏻def super doggo sperm

@Franklydear ha ha ha it was literally in for a second, closely followed by my 0% cider but already black. I didn't even move, didn't touch it 😞DH really mad. It's the work one & he needs to do work tomorrow night for Monday morning. He'll have to go into work now tomorrow 😬balls

@DOB78 please do please def do!! I've got my zero cider here & ive bought Nozecco but something is really lacking in it 🤔🙄thank you so much xx

@bez91 😘😘😘thank you!!!

@larrythelizard terrible fear. But please remind me the day by day. It's just hard isn't it when you know even no bleeding can be bad 😞I'm gonna speak to my clinic & GP tomorrow to try get the blood thinners Cos of the Covid jab too last week & ive had 2 blood clots (I've got a random condition they easily call "sticky blood", I shouldn't have had the AZ jab but hey Ho) so I'm REALLY worried. I will push for an early scan and if it's not on the cards pay def. I'm just hoping that as this maybe chose to be here naturally it wants to stick around?? (Totally irrational but let's go with it)

@Sausage1990 omg really for you too?!! That's mental!! Ha yes no fears on TTC 🤣😂

@Clairey844 DH says in light of this, in reaction to your comment on my blog can we now add he's shagging like a pro??? 🤣😂I did say that means porn star and they shouldn't get ppl preggo 😆🌈🌈🌈

@Madz123 OMG thank you so much!! 😘I think a couple of ladies might labour in shock, you game?! Xx
