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? 🐣

@blackcurrantqueen funny you mention that, I just got a notification my period is due in 3 days 😂

Didn't quite TTC last month so no clue, it will be a pleasant surprise now that I took out all my beige and white jeans 🤣

@2020mission ohhhhh another one! Congratulations darling 🥰 April is turning out to be a good month for bfps lol.

@blackcurrantqueen ohhh I've had a couple of days of no cm but the rest has been creamy but not alot, defo been constipated too! And omg today I've been starving all day! Ate 3 snickers in one go 🤣 then had lunch and was hungry again an hour or so later 🤭 be interesting to see what symptoms we have the rest of the week! When are you planning to test? Af due? Xx

@Minster2012 Im sure it is 😂 💸

@2020mission yessssss amazing 🤞🏼 ❤️
Come on all these April sticky beans 😊

@blackcurrantqueen yes close by, apparent 10dpo but don't think I've ovulated. Nafff all symptoms but cramping which usually happens before AF. Will test end of the week before vag cam app Saturday 😆 AF due early next week. You didn't share your symptom spotting this morning........

@2020mission many congratulations 🥳
@Minster2012 yay to the house 🏡 mate, what a month you're having! 😃
@DJmum83 congrats on the successful scan!
@Asthenia congrats to you too! What a week eh 🙂

Thanks ladies! Keeping positive but not getting too excited just incase. I wish I had used OPKs now as I have absolutely no idea what DPO it is or anything. I have a good feeling we'll have more BFPs here soon 🍀🤞

Wanting to poas + needing the loo every five minutes = aaarrrrrrgggghhhhhhhhhhhhh

@paintfairy best way to try stay relaxed 🤣not worry bout it apparently it's worked for @Asthenia & @2020mission 🥳

There seems to be a lot of symptoms flying round! So @Franklydear is next then @Tornado2Inc then @blackcurrantqueen, @bez91 & @Hopeful110 is that right??

🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Minster2012 starting to feel more periody, and like a stitch to one side, not too hopeful

Oooh @2020mission a very tentative congratulations!!! Sending sticky vibes! X

Congratulations @Asthenia and @2020mission! The BFPs are coming in fast!

@Vil10 I've bred quite a few litters over the years and one of my bitches last year gave birth prematurely and I had a little runt that was a third of the size of the others. A few dog breeder friends suggested keeping my puppy room really warm so I popped a thermometer in there and kept it at 30 degrees and they thrived. The runt hardly gained weight over the first two weeks but was a little fighter and pulled through and we still have her now. I definitely think the heat helped though. Pic of mum and runt

@Crazydoglady123 what a lovely story! Such a cute pic!! 🥰

@Minster2012 aww that’s fab news on the valuation too.

@2020mission aww tentative congratulations, hope your lines get darker over the next few days.

BFN this morning ladies, cd 24 possibly 12dpo

@Franklydear ahhh don't give up yet lovely! Your not out til AF shows her ugly face! Re test I'm 2 days if she doesn't show up? Xx

Thank you @Hopeful110

@franklydear still time yet lovely x

Morning! 🌞has the sun been shining for you guys? We've had it lovely!

@Franklydear you know you aren't out til Flo pops in so shhhhhhhhhj now 🤞🏻& tell us the music choice of today? Interestingly my SIL didn't get a positive til she was 2 days late, she got BFNs all the way up til then, so there's hope darling 😘

@Crazydoglady123 omg they are gorgeous!! What are they called? And it's STIMULATION day one! Yessss come on follicles!

@paintfairy scan day for you too is it? Soooo exciting all this going on! 🤞🏻

@notyetamumbuttrying I know DH last night was like "something's bound to go wrong we can't have everything go right?" Which is true something usually does, MIL phoned yesterday after I sent message saying we'd got the house & she was like "the other one falling through was meant to be, I'm so happy for you, it's all falling into place" I really wanted to tell her but didn't she'll go nuts!

So what else is going on in ppl's lives?

Btw I watch made in Chelsea & Ollie & his fella's talking of surrogacy is really pissing me off, but the "sex maps of Britain" programmes on iplayer are a good watch

Completely random but wondering if any of you ladies can help, haven't changed my tablets or anything but since yesterday my dishwasher has just stopped dissolving the tablet. The tablet door is opening fine and releasing the tablet but when the cycle is finished I find the tablet just sat at the bottom of the dishwasher ? Anyone had this happen to them before and know what I can do ?

@Franklydear sorry about BFN but defo not out yet! We're all crossing everything for you xx

Thank you all, dh won’t let me test again until I am properly late, wants to keep a sane wife, I don’t feel that periody but a bit, could be either, to wait again it seems
Haven’t chosen the music yet, but definitely needs to be happy music today, hit me with your feel good bands

@notyetamumbuttrying @Minster2012 all of the animals in my house have lapped me multiple times while I've been TTC 😐

I'll catch up properly after school run. Been battling buserelin headaches and just felt fed up feeling crap last night but need to read what I've missed. I feel like we need an end of day summary post, like a tv show recap 😂

@Crazydoglady123 previously on the bus....😂 I like it

@2020Mission Congratulations to you!!

Seems to be a few of us SS at the moment waiting for our BFPs. 7dpo and stupidly poas this morning obviously BFN, will I ever learn.........

@Minster2012 it defo won't! My mum always says it comes in threes, so you're due something else wonderful soon too 😍
Haven't watched made in Chelsea in years! Is it still good? Are they being really blasé about surrogacy then? Ooh good iPlayer tip, sounds up my street!!
@Crazydoglady123 they've lapped me too 😂good luck for today lovely ☺️ good idea with the bus round up! I like @Franklydear "previously on the bus". Sorry to hear about your bfn hun, hopefully AF stays away!! 🤞🏾

@Crazydoglady123 sorry I completely missed your pups story last night but that is so lovely that the runt managed to thrive and do well. I hope all goes well today for you.

@Franklydear sorry about the bfn but as others have said your not out until the witch arrives.

@lucyrp sorry hun not sure on the dishwasher.

@Minster2012 aww I feel you it’s so hard not telling people, I’ve got to the point where I want to tell my friends but I want to wait until I’ve had the 12 week scan. I feel like 1st trimester is the longest thing ever and I thought the TWW was hard.
