Welcome back to the bus where anything goes, hop aboard, tell us about you & we’ll be here for you (there’s a song in there somewhere!).

This bus has a growing bunch of gorgeous black and white springy pups on board, tortoises & 2 feisty little kittens so bring your pets and pictures are obligatory 🤗.

We’ve got TTC happening 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 I get really into an online magic eight ball from time time - utterly useless in reality but gives me hope at times...!

Minster2012 · 10/05/2021 18:10

Online magic 8 ball @larrythelizard what is this?!

OP posts:
larrythelizard · 10/05/2021 18:39

@Minster2012 I just asked it if I'd have a second child and it said 'most likely'. I'll take that!

Minster2012 · 10/05/2021 18:52

Ok @larrythelizard that's excellent, apparently my scan will be positive results so stepping away now 🙌🏻

Sunbird24 · 10/05/2021 19:12

I don’t like this game - asked if I’d ever give birth to a live baby and the answer was ‘my sources say no’ 😭

larrythelizard · 10/05/2021 19:22

Oh in that case @Sunbird24 I'd ask the same question in a different way and see how it answers!

Glad it gave the correct answer @Minster2012, thats you until weds!

Haiyaa · 10/05/2021 19:37

Well I’ve asked if I am currently pregnant and the answer was “as I see it, YES” much prefer them to the FRER this morning 😂

I think my body is being a fuckboy anyway so will discuss with the acupuncturist tomorrow. I have been getting so hot at night the last 4-5 nights, next level constipated and nauseous the last 2 days but that could be the constipation 😂 I’m hoping at least it means I have ovulated as they are some big progesterone symptoms.

blackcurrantqueen · 10/05/2021 19:41

@Minster2012 I'm in agreement I'd hold off filling the forms in until after Wednesday I think, for no reason other than superstition.
YEAS to the magic 8 ball 🤞🏼

@Haiyaa they are big progesterone symptoms !

I had acupuncture today, it was lovely, we discussed next cycle and if/when I get pregnant what our plan of action will be,
DD went to my mums and was an angel and now she's home and back to being a croaky gremlin 😂
Absolutely knackered, treated ourselves to some m+s steaks and watching some old greys anatomy before bed!

Dollybird89 · 10/05/2021 19:57

@sausage1990 I'm so sorry to hear about your MC. Sending you lots of hugs 🤗

Had my second vaccine today. Feeling super drowsy so skipping my squats today and doing extra tomorrow. Had a weird dream that I finally got 2 lines on a first response test... Then woke up with sore boobs... Not had these sorts of dreams since before my mc last year. If you only count the last week of AF I'd be about cd15 now so possible ov. Maybe I'm getting my hopes up on some silly dream and stupid body but I can always hope 😊

2020mission · 10/05/2021 20:01

Aww I remember I had a physical magic 8 ball in my childhood. Seemed to show "ask again later" half the time 😆 fun times!

@Minster2012 I agree and would just leave it until after Wednesday. No rush! Assuming the booking appointment isn't that soon after? Mines is at 9 weeks. Haven't got forms yet 😅 hopefully they're not too long.

notyetamumbuttrying · 10/05/2021 20:03

@larrythelizard I asked will ivf work and it said cannot predict now 😩 better than no I guess!

2020mission · 10/05/2021 20:04

Which vaccine was it @Dollybird89? Definitely take it easy! Hopefully that dream will come true soon 🤞

Dollybird89 · 10/05/2021 20:05

@2020mission it was the Pfizer 😁

Justanothercyster · 10/05/2021 20:05

@Haiyaa ahhh yes Ginny and Georgia is SO good, I binged it all haha

Hope everyone's ok. Flying visit from me tonight as we're finally putting up curtains 🙌🏼 no more mooning the new neighbours woo 😆

Minster2012 · 10/05/2021 20:18

Oh no @Sunbird24 that's not good or correct!

@Haiyaa thems is some good progesterone symptoms and obviously the magic 8 ball said so 🤣

@Dollybird89 that's a totally legit dream/manifestation there!! You take it easy tonight def and see how you feel tomorrow too

@2020mission booking appointment next Monday, where meant to be over 8 weeks but obs that's not the case atm so there's time to do the form, I've left it

@blackcurrantqueen that sounds perfect today for you, now chill

DS & I are going to flamingo land tomorrow, part zoo 🦁🐯🦏🦛🦓🐆🦒part theme park, 🎢🎡🎠it was his Christmas present from my parents so I'm going with them tomorrow so that's tomorrow's distraction sorted

@minster2012 I went there when I was a kid! I loved it haha ... Didn't realize I lived just over an hour away... I'm gonna have to go back now lol 🤣

Minster2012 · 10/05/2021 20:48

@Dollybird89 yes it's about 45mins for me too!

OP posts:
larrythelizard · 10/05/2021 21:04

Ooh yes fantastic progesterone @Haiyaa!

Good to have a plan @blackcurrantqueen, DD must be on the mend if she was good for your mum.

Anything is possible @Dollybird89!

Sounds a fantastic distraction @Minster2012, and a fun day!

@minster2012 but you get to go flamingo land lol 🤣

Franklydear · 11/05/2021 07:14

Morning, not feeling too well here, had a row with dh, I thought I did a chore but I clearly didn’t and he had a massive go at me, he has backtracked when he saw he upset me but still, I do so much, and much of his life admin as well, on top of working full time, I don’t have more time than he does, oh well, he’s sorry...

DOB78 · 11/05/2021 07:20

@Franklydear ah it not nice when you fall out and he did apologise. Do you think it's work stress it's still not right for him to take it out you but men are strange creatures and don't always talk about their feelings just blow up over the trivial
