Well that was an ovulation tea party to remember! 💃🏼🥑🍍🥗🌮

Thanks for turning up you lovely lot and so Welcome back on board the bus where our route now takes us through the POAS early corner of shame to the “I’m gonna wait until AF is late this time” and then stopping at the fertility clinic to drop off a bunch of giggling girls going to get their foof felt up by a load of nurses and hopefully get impregnated by them! 🤞🏻

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

@Minster2012 Got a whole 6hrs sleep and still feel rough but it's sunny outside so no mopping around.
Poas this morning faint line but in the wrong place and rhr has dropped so think I'm out this month, hey-ho

Minster2012 · 25/04/2021 08:13

@DOB78 yes @paintfairy forgets the really important hit of the actual insemination by the nurse 🤣

@Haiyaa how are you? We all need a fit dildo cam man 😬 i mean if someone's gonna stick dildo can up us we want them to be fit!

@bez91 so you didn't confirm he was indeed attractive?! I wouldn't have been able to help it 🤣

@Hopeful110 ha ha ha yes if we can do it @kaylsd there's definitely hope! @Hopeful110 I didn't realise you didn't have a period after the chemical? God it's interesting what our bodies can do isn't it?!

@blackcurrantqueen when's the next acupuncture? Def need the zen, and I got a good nights sleep I was literally zonked but this morning I've had a bad pain 🤔😬

Minster2012 · 25/04/2021 08:14

@DOB78 you aren't too old at all, and faint line in the wrong place? Do you have a pic?

I'm so intrigued about the washing sperm too!

OP posts:
DOB78 · 25/04/2021 08:24

@Minster2012 nevermind it's disappeared now.......bloody body playing bloody tricks on me!! Can just imagine them washing sperm "come guys hop in the waters lovely"

kaylsd · 25/04/2021 08:30

@hopeful110 congratulations sweetheart it’s so reassuring hearing stories like yourself which has been in similar shoes as me with a positive outcome, I can imagine your journey has been a pain in the arse but it’s worth it in the end 👌🏻😘 I hope you have a happy and healthy 9 months ✨

@2020mission thanks for your welcome chick, you should see half of stuff I end up bobbing her in, I think sometimes she tells me to piss off embarrassing her 😂🙈

@BlondePotter thanks for your welcome hunny, it’s amazing to hear your BFP story with irregular cycles being a issue that it can be overcome and the end result being the best thing ever 😘 I’m just going to take the rough with the smooth and hoping one day I may return back normal with cycles, I’m going to try eating abit better to see if that can help with anything as I swear in lockdown all I’ve done is comfort eat because that’s only luxury we’ve had 😂🙈

@2alreadywantanother thank you for your welcome hunny, I hope you can have your final addition to make your family complete 🤞🏻🤞🏻 I’m going to be taking a relaxed approach going forward because the OPK system don’t work for me as I have false peaks, with the BBT I used to panic if I woke up and forgot to take it for the first 5 mins, I never realised how controlled I found by being like this so I’m
Tempted to strip it back to signs and EWCM and follow it from there :) I’m sorry to hear about how hard your journey has been..sending hugs 🤗

@Crazydoglady123 thank you darling, good luck with your IVF journey, it’s amazing how science has come along these days! Absolutely amazes me, how long did it get for you to get to where you are now if you don’t mind me asking? I’ll probably be able to have insight when hubs SA gets done to see what our next plan is going forward but I’m sure I’ve read sometimes even if it’s a poor sample this time it can be repeated a couple of times to see the accuracy between them all! Just got a 15 minute window for him to drop it off by as we live 45 minutes from the hospital, hope there’s no traffic 😂🙈 in terms of supplements I used to take pregnacare for months but I used to find they tasted like
Cheap gravy granules 🙈 and when the USS showed pcos I switched it up to conception plus ovulation support but I don’t feel any difference what so ever in these but I’ve only been taking them for about 3 week and they may take time

@bez91 & @paintfairy thank you ladies 🥰

@larrythelizzard tell us about it!! If only they could have relaxed a little bit on the if you look at someone on your period with no clothes on there’s a small chance you could get pregnant and go into the importance of the time of cycle 😂🙈😩

@Minster2021 thanks for your welcoming hunny! I can’t actually recall anything much for an embarrassing story what might be funny for you guys 😂 the worst thing I can recall was on my first day of uni when we was in a lecture hall I was sat at the top out of the way from anyone it was quite a steep theatre with two areas of chairs to each side with stairs in the middle.. I fell arse over tit from top to bottom as I wore these clunky boots and missed top step walking down, I then got known as the girl who fell for 3 years 😂 great impression in a full uni lecture theatre everyone came rushing to me at the bottom good job I was in the room full of training nurses to be.. ermmm when I used to work on the wards I had a habit of saying love you bye after each phonecall by accident as I’m used to saying it on the phone anyway at home and I said it to one of the consultants accidentally and he was on a ward round with patients and said in front of my patient that I said I was his favourite as I expressed my love for him 🤣🤣 my only thing which I find a strange thing about my TTC is when I end up in the TWW I have strange dreams? I don’t know if anyone else is the same but they can be as strange as being on a game show similar to Takeshi castle 😂😂😂 and one of the contestants turned round to me and said why is your back hairy I goes it’s my pcos 😢 (I don’t have a hairy back just to clarify) and they won’t let me continue as they said I had dandruff in my hair but when I checked it was just cornflakes 😂😂😂 like what the hell?? I hope this makes me not look too boring for the stories side 🙈 On the other note When you took northisterone how long did it take for your bleed to start when finishing, was it in the average time or a little bit longer?

Hope everyone’s having a lovely weekend, and thank you for your warm welcome! I hope I've not missed anyone.. going to go on a pooch walk later making the most of the last day off since I’m working next weekend, may sway to find a dog friendly pub so we can have a cheeky one outside! Has anyone else been outside a pub since the restrictions have relaxed or not too bothered? :)

Minster2012 · 25/04/2021 08:36

@DOB78 and @paintfairy I'm imagining more of a "spa" experience for the sperm when they like squish water (or whatever) from a syringe the awaiting sperm in the pot are like "woooo someone's turned the bubbles on" 🤣😂🙌🏻rub a dub dub!

@kaylsd loving the stories! I would do exactly the same falling down stairs that's hilarious, great impression! On the northisterone I've had it a few times and each time it was about 4 days later when I bled, and usually quite heavy too 🙄. I'd def pay attention to the ewcm that's usually the biggest sign though I don't get it much. I haven't been to a pub yet but our 2 locals arent open for drinks again yet, DH went to a pub on Thursday night. (Plus the fact I'd want a bloody drink and I can't 🤣)

OP posts:
paintfairy · 25/04/2021 08:59

@DOB78 @Minster2012 🤣 Sperm spa! Can you imagine?! I think they must do it for ivf though too? They have to separate the sperm from the fluid - as they can't put the fluid in your uterus (that's the bit that normally comes back out and causes lake spermo). They also give it some red bull like fluid instead. 🤪 What she put in was definitely clear coloured.
@kaylsd I thought I had weird dreams! 🤣
I've not bothered with a pub yet. CBA to freeze to death outside or go with a million people (dislike busy in general).
@bez91 I haven't seen any men (thank god). But DH did voice opinions about this. Claiming its wrong. 😆 I do wonder if they think another man peering at their OHs bits is some kind of wrong. Like- no man has since I've been with him, so, medical purposes or not, its crossed that line then? Needs must and all that though!

DOB78 · 25/04/2021 09:12

@paintfairy red bull for sperm!!! Oh this group is so educational.

2alreadywantanother · 25/04/2021 09:18

@franklydear I agree, the cb opk are clear, it's a nothing, a high or a peak. No looking at IC going is it dark enough? I've a good idea of when I ovulate so I dont go by their recommendation of when to start. Got 2 mths out of them and have some left, just not doing them at the min.
I get totally what you mean about been fertile after mc. We fell pregnant after 1mth of ttc. Couldnt believe it. Thinking then after mmc ok this,will happen quick. Never in a million years did I think nearly 8mths later I'd still be ttc.
And as for multi vitamins. We both did months of expensive proceive and I stopped. They obviously ain't working here. Just taking folic acid like i did last time only now i started taking low dose aspirin thanks @minster2012 x

2alreadywantanother · 25/04/2021 09:20

I think the rise is too early, what u think? No implantation dip. Af due wed and I normally spot for 2 days so expecting it to start dropping tomorrow

The nurse impregnated me when DH wasn’t there 🤞🏻😱TTC bus 39
paintfairy · 25/04/2021 09:27

@2alreadywantanother I don't think you get dips with rhr do you? Its not as precise as temping. It's a bit more general. As long as its up, that's what matters?

larrythelizard · 25/04/2021 09:55

I asked the consultant I saw about supplements @2alreadywantanother and he said nothing had been proved to work so just folic acid for a potential baby.

I didn't mention the pharmacy of supplements that I take on a daily basis 😂😂😂

2alreadywantanother · 25/04/2021 10:00

@paintfairy 🤞

@larrythelizard I know a few that attended clinics for ttc ur after mc and anyone I know who did were recommended to use proceive. Meant to be the best over the counter for ttc.
Didnt work for us. Oh also 1st mth of using epo before ovulation. Forgot to mention that

Crazydoglady123 · 25/04/2021 10:21

@kaylsd we've been TTC since jan 2019 but we're not eligible for funded IVF so we are private. I managed to get a lot of investigations with the NHS and have had 5 cycles of ovulation induction but I over stimulated on Clomid twice which hasn't been a nice experience so I was at the end of the road on what the NHS can offer plus we have a slight MFI too. Definitely read up on inositol for long cycles and PCOS. It helps shorten them. Also, a really good Instagram page is healthypcos_ They have some really interesting and helpful stuff on there to have a read of!

Franklydear · 25/04/2021 10:26

Hi, I am here, I am reading, I just don’t know how I feel, I’ll pick up my big girl pants in a minute

Minster2012 · 25/04/2021 10:29

@paintfairy the sperm get a red bull cocktail in their spa too? To give them wings?!

It's always an education 🤣

@2alreadywantanother long as it's riding it's ok isn't it?

Minster2012 · 25/04/2021 10:49

@Sunbird24 have you spoken to the EPU about the positive? What did they say xx

Morning all - WHAT HAVE I MISSED?!?

I see some BFP!!! CONGRATULATIONS 🎉

I've been on holiday with the family and had a bleed which now looks like it was a short af as I started using my clear blue opk and got a flashy smiley today?? Earlier than expected as only CD9, but Its first cycle (it think) 6 weeks post coil removal... we shall see what happens!
I've tested and BFN so 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Good luck all! Xx

Dollybird89 · 25/04/2021 12:05

@franklydear did you have cake yesterday?

Franklydear · 25/04/2021 12:13

@Dollybird89 yes, I did, I passed on the wine though, I only normally drink in happy occasions and I didn’t feel it, I’ll be doing the same today, maybe a cheeky takeaway, I can always start the diet tomorrow right?

larrythelizard · 25/04/2021 13:10

I feel you @Franklydear it took me a good week to bounce back from last AF and it's not even as if I was late.

blackcurrantqueen · 25/04/2021 13:19

@Franklydear hugs xxxx

Sunbird24 · 25/04/2021 14:25

[quote Minster2012]@Sunbird24 have you spoken to the EPU about the positive? What did they say xx[/quote]
No, leaving it until tomorrow!

2alreadywantanother · 25/04/2021 14:44

@franklydear I'm always starting the diet tomorrow 🙈🤣

Minster2012 · 25/04/2021 15:35

@Franklydear diet always tomorrow, today to look after you 😘

@Sunbird24 have you done any more tests? I'd def speak to them just to advise, a few of us have had ok MC/MMC (not ok but you know what I mean) and then a couple of others had a rougher time so please call x
