So ladies. You thought you got rid of me eh? Like the omnipresent flashing smiley face on the joker clear blue sticks you can’t get past I’m BACK! 🤡😄

The agency driver did the most amazing job I tried to offer a permanent job but apparently temping is much more lucrative & she’s got a gig elsewhere much better paid than driving you reprobates so you a stuck with me I’m afraid, like that rash you’ve been meaning to go to the doctors about or a guy with a cheesey dick you really need to have a conversation with but can’t bring yourself too 🤪�hthank you so much @larrythelizard

We’ve reserved a bench seat each for our newest 2 sets of bus twins, but don’t worry there’s still room for more!

So get those cheese dicks 🧀🍆washed & prepped, park up the camper van, ditch the whey powder & join the team for the banging game!

The price of your bus pass is an embarrassing story please, doesn’t have to go be TTC related and nothing is TMI here so let’s hope the ride (bus not banging) doesn’t take long 🤞🏻🙌🏻

This is where dogs, dicks & chat go hand in hand as we navigate the stormy seas of TTC.

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

@Minster2012 nope you are not the only one, usually multitasking with a yoga slurp whilst DH is in the bathroom 🤣🤣🤣🤣 it’s not like I’m likely to forget about it the next day but it is almost a bit of a ritual now 😂

Minster2012 · 04/06/2021 23:20

@Haiyaa yeah it's part of it! Maybe why DH feels "used" occasionally 🤣

Ovulated at some point iver last weekend and sweat I had lots of EWCM earlier this eve?!? Just feeling moist if that makes sense?? 🤣🤣🤣

My OH last time said he wanted to tip me up to help the sperm 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Kirky658 · 05/06/2021 05:05

@minster2012 thankyou beaut ❤️ it was so nice to dress up for a change! No hot pregnancy sex last night, too tired after an 8 mile walk 😂 maybe this morning pre check out... Also not alone with the logging sex; I still do it now even though its largely pointless 🤣 x

bez91 · 05/06/2021 06:04

@Minster2012 like it's a reward sticker 🤣 yes that's me too 🙈

Am I the only one who hasn't done a Dave? Never seen an attractive Dave tbf with the exception of Beckham

@Lexber wow that's some loss, well done you 💪

blackcurrantqueen · 05/06/2021 06:35

@Minster2012 oh god yeah like @Haiyaa says whilst slurping just update not 1 but 3 apps 😂😂😂
Glad the house sale is getting there 🤞🏼

Yes I was thinking the same @Dollybird89 how are you girl 💕

@Lexber yeasss nice one on the weight loss!!

@Kirky658 you looked gorgeous! 🔥

Franklydear · 05/06/2021 07:11

@Minster2012 yes, I tick, but dh doesn’t know, I think it would be a step too far
I went out with a David, (read daaaaaaviddd, not deivid)but didn’t sleep with him, mind due I was only in high school, he was one of those rebels with commitment issues, luckily I saw sense

Minster2012 · 05/06/2021 07:55

@bez91 you aren't missing out on a Dave if most are like mine was. Starts with "wan" and ends with "ker" 🤣

@blackcurrantqueen yup 3 apps here too!

@Lexber well done on the weight loss that's great! And did you let him tip you up?! @Haiyaa said about cm too after OV & @Juno231 said it was nothing to worry about just estrogen (but you best DTD anyway right)?

@Franklydear I'm only jesting that DH doesn't like the reward stickers, don't think hes noticed! A rebel with commitment issues eh? Did see that one coming from a David 🤔

@Kirky658 I also still did it when pregnant, habitual plus I was interested to see how much we actually did it🤣

kaylsd · 05/06/2021 07:56

@Minster2012 I tend to get her cut around every 8 weeks she went longer this time as our groomer was fully booked up then decided she was going on holiday to Portugal 🙈

@lexber @minster2012 I feel like you girls should have a sticker of achievement for doing a Dave after that thread.. after all the name is going extinct apparently so you’ve done your bit for society 🤣🙈🙈

Another day out in the sun I think today to top up my squishy tan lines, first stop hair salon thou 🥰 have an amazing Saturday everyone xx

Thinkingandblinking · 05/06/2021 08:02

@Minster2012 my hubby used to ask to see his sticker chart 😂

Have a good Saturday all! Xx

DKDK123 · 05/06/2021 08:24

@Haiyaa cramping at 7dpo can be a good sign, I had cramping last month from around 7-10dpo, fingers crossed for you 🤞
Unfortunately I don't think any private clinics would just give me a prescription without wanting to do some of their own consultations and investigations first and we've just not got the spare cash at the moment while also trying to save money for one day hopefully having maternity leave so it's just a waiting game for NHS. As you said the NHS is an amazing service but when time is of the essence for TTC it can be so frustratingly slow.

@Minster2012 don't worry after researching more online I decided against getting the progesterone myself there were too many horror stories of people using too much and it can take up to 3 months to leave your system if you fuck it up 😲 shall have to just be patient and try be more zen as stress can lower your progesterone levels, stress what stress when ttc?😂 🧘‍♀️ I'm not holding my hopes out on actually getting accepted to the RMC after these tests are done, think the doc just agreed to try refer me to stop the major meltdown on the phone but he didn't sound convinced that they'd accept me due to not reaching the 6 weeks. Its probably one of those different health boards have different rules things that we see all the time here, another health board may say any loss at any stage can count, my shitty one just doesn't want to know unless it's over 6weeks. Hoping your abundance of ewcm means ovulation is FINALLY on its way for you this month 🤞 think of all the extra calories burned from all that shagging you've been doing to catch the egg win-win situation 😉 Shit timing with the scan pics they're always a dagger to the heart even when you're expecting it. I went into MILs last night to collect DS and there was SIL scan pic pride of place infront of the telly and even tho SIL had sent me the scan pic having it in eyesight for over an hour was not fun.

@Franklydear Baulbasaur does work with any gender it'd be unique if anything 😂

@kiwittc1st periods are shit even when not ttc but it definitely is an extra cruel reminder when you're ttc - mother nature is definitely a man in disguise there's nothing nurturing or motherly about her!

@kaylsd aww even with the curl loss Mable still looks cute 😍

@Clairey844 32 weeks already, how are you feeling now that you're almost there? So exciting won't be long before another wee bus baby graduate is born 😊

Amazing on the weightloss @lexber well done keep it up!

Thank you for all the hand holding ladies, I stayed away from the chocolate and wine 🥳 Still plodding on with my route 66 challenge and hitting my 5mies a day target even the days when I'm shattered. Haven't set up a fundraising page yet tho was going to right before I got the bfp last month then when we lost it it was just too raw to share the story. I'm still going to do it tho, I'll keep the route 66 for me and think of another challenge that I'll start in the summer and think I'll actually raise money for Tommy's in the hope that due to their research on MC ladies in the future won't need to go through some of the heartache that many on here have.

Kirky658 · 05/06/2021 08:36

@minster2012 hahhaa great minds! Am in the gym now and we managed a rather fab morning session beforehand so can't complain... Knackered in the gym tho 😂😂😂

Dollybird89 · 05/06/2021 08:36

@minster2012 @blackcurrantqueen I'm here lurking ... on cd 64 atm and it's taking its toll so I've just retreated a bit for a while xx

Lexber · 05/06/2021 09:21

@kaylsd tbh my longer term Dave wasn't too bad... we were together about 3.5 years after I split with my youngest dad (he ran off with my mate when my youngest was just turned 1.. so I'd say Brian's are bigger TW*Ts... he has then spent the last 9 years waiting for me and when I I'm happy without him being a knob to me...🤷🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️) anyway back to Dave, so he wanted a kid but wouldn't commit to me with marriage so it kind of started to go south (and I'm 95% sure he also cheated on me... I have a knack of saying cheating arseholes)

Thanks guys, I'm pleased, Altho first week is always a good one due to drastic change in lazy unhealthy diet 🤣 let's see if I can keep it up

BlondePotter · 05/06/2021 09:37

Hello everyone, been MIA for a while but very excited to see the double twin news 😍😍

I've been busy as my little girl arrived 2 weeks early last Friday! We've called her Luna Elizabeth and she's just beautiful. We were home within 20 hours fortunately and I've recovered well. Just loving all of the newborn snuggles. I wanted to say thank you for all of the support in the TTC days last year through all the long cycles, blood tests, AF arrivals, trying to decipher rhr graphs 🙈 you are such a supportive group of women who all deserve their babies some day and I hope it's soon 💞💞💞

Franklydear · 05/06/2021 09:50

@BlondePotter wonderful news!!!

DKDK123 · 05/06/2021 09:56

Congratulations @blondepotter lovely news enjoy the baby snuggles 🥰

Kirky658 · 05/06/2021 10:08

@blondepotter congratulations!!!! Lovely news xx

notyetamumbuttrying · 05/06/2021 10:12

@BlondePotter congratulations 🥳 lovely name! Thank you for thanking us, it's nice to hear of the successes and how we've been helpful for you. I hope I get to say that one day soon 😊 transfer day is tomorrow! 🤞🏾

Franklydear · 05/06/2021 10:19

@BlondePotter the name is great, I would say don’t go just yet, this is a village, handholds still needed

Sausage1990 · 05/06/2021 10:24

@minster2012 hey lovely I'm still here. Like you said hanging on in there. Just taking a little step back to help keep my head right. Wanting to ttc but not currently ttc is a wierd headspace lol. But I'm still here.

We're away in West Wales atm for DH's birthday but coming home today. I've caught up with the last bus but not caught up with this one yet. I will catch up with the I pages (so far) but for now wanted to pop in and say hi. I got my post MMC negative pregnancy test so I'm glad it's all settled in a timely fashion this time, and I'm due to have some blood tests in about 3 weeks...

Hope you're all doing okay!!! 💕

Congratulations @crazydoglady123 on your twins news! It definitely will be a crazy ride but they'll be the best friends, I am with my sister and it's the best!

Minster2012 · 05/06/2021 10:25

@Thinkingandblinking love that FH wanted to see his reward chart 🤣😂

@Dollybird89 hang in there! How's the squats going?

@BlondePotter she's an absolute beaut! I hope you are enjoying all those walks with peaks you found for your Insta 🥰

@Lexber adding Brian's to the list of TW*Ts, there's prob a reason why there aren't many baby Brian's 🤣

@Kirky658 you are farrr too energetic!

Well my brother, his girlfriend and son are up from London this week so we are going to the beach today. It's the first time my brother's Canadian girlfriend has been to a British beach so the East Yorkshire riviera better not disappoint 🤣🙌🏻

kaylsd · 05/06/2021 10:41

@Lexber we will add Brian onto the avoid list too, I'm trying to think about any other old names that may have a tendency to be twats or love rats 🤔 what about a derek? Any takers 🤣🙈
