Is that Greek yoghurt CM in your pants🩲 or are you just pleased to see me? Knickerwatching TTC bus 43

[Minster2012]

We are back in business & trundling into summer with weight loss galore & hopefully some promotions! 🥳🥸 Yesss ladies though there’s quite a lot of injuries lately 🤒🤕so be careful, don’t fall off the bus!

Welcome to the knickerwatch brigade 👀be it for spotting spotting 🩸, Aunt Flo or even pesky progesterone leakage 💊even after BFP many of us here know the knickerwatch needs to be maintained so we operate a strict rotation policy of participants (partici 🩲maybe 🤗)

Here is the bus where anything goes, and chat isn’t just TTC it’s anything. Ranting very much encouraged to her things off your (are they sore boobs?!) chest

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 🤞🏻🙌🏻

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

🤞🏻💓😘🥳🙌🏻

@Minster2012 I know right? Bless his crazy heart 😂

@Somatronic sorry about the BFN and the migraine - hope it eases off for you soon

@Justanothercyster oh bless ya! Hope it's not been too full on. All is well here thanks, just waiting for FW really 😄

@JuniperAndTonic is the promotion something you really want? If so, just got for it. There's no predicting anything with TTC and you can't put your life on hold forever (this is my new motto as I wasn't doing anything 😂)

@KiwiTTC1st I wouldn't worry. It can be so different from person to person. I never have the same symptoms before AF these days so I've given up hoping about any symptoms because it's a magical mystery grab bag of crap each time 😂

@clolo I know nothing about IVF but that all sounds very exciting - good luck!

@butterfliesx haha that's a good one. Serves him right for trying to cram it in when you weren't moister than an oyster 😂. If it helps I once tore my frenulum (under the tongue!) when giving a blowjob 🙊. Had to sit there for ages afterwards just spitting blood into a mug... Sexy!

@Juno231 omg 🤣🤣🤣 how much effort were you putting into that! 😆

@butterfliesx omg welcome, what a story 🤣

@Manifestingbaby I know it's so annoying with the symptoms, wishing I had no symptoms at all so that I can't think about them 😂 I just keep telling myself only a few days left either way 😅

@Juno231 Haha that's what I thought! Omg!! That sounds so painful, I bet it took ages to heal as well 😬

@Kirky658 thank you! I know not my finest moment 🤣

@butterfliesx hahahha that's fantastic 😆 the question is did you try again?

And @Juno231 what the actual hell 😂😂

So after DHs best friend announced the birth of their son this week (should have been my due date today) my cousin has just set up a group chat with the whole fam announcing their no2 on the way. So a shitty week feeling sorry for myself 😂 their DS is 10 weeks older than our DD and if I get a positive test next week they'll also be 10 weeks between, hope it's an omen 😂

@clolo it's fantastic! And you should get great numbers 🤞🏻I took my trigger shot with a cider when I did mine 🤣

@butterfliesx that's BRILLIANT! Well guys like tight holes right 🤣what did you say to the message the week after?!

@Manifestingbaby another BFN, still got everything crossed 🤞🏻

@Juno231 bloody hell how hard at it were you?! I guess it's that point where you frantically Google & hope it will heal on its own 🤣

@bez91 really hope it is an omen, sorry for the impromptu announcement on a tough day 😚 my family just don't do the "family WhatsApp" thing, DHs does though. I guess it's a closeness thing?

@Minster2012 Ah, it's a small world! I never went out in Loughborough so I don't know Matt's Bar I'm afraid! I was more of a Mosh (in Leicester) kind of girl 😂

@paintfairy Hello neighbour! 👋

I'm being very naughty and symptom spotting like mad 🙈 I have had the weirdest feeling in my uterus alllll day, like a kind of twingy sensation, a bit like being twanged with a hot elastic band if that makes sense? It's not really painful but it's definitely noticeable. It's not something I normally get before AF but I don't remember having it when I was pregnant with DS either so not sure if it's good or not!

I have my interview for the big promotion tomorrow. Keeping my fingers crossed and trying to prep for it, it's a good distraction from the TWW obsessing anyway

@polkadotpixie good luck for tomorrow's interview hun x

@polkadotpixie well every pregnancy is different so could be good! 🤞🏻good luck for the interview 🙌🏻

@larrythelizard have you got your panel interview coming up too?

@bez91 no I never saw him again 😂 Fingers crossed for you and sorry to hear about today, sending wishes your way💗

@Minster2012 I think I just made excuses as to why I was busy and it kind've fizzled out naturally 😅

@polkadotpixie I've been having really similar symptoms, I've been calling them twinges in my mind but you've described them perfectly! I had them yesterday ALL day and none at all really today! Now worrying why they've stopped! Good luck on your interview🤞

@JuniperAndTonic Thankyou so much lovely! It really is tough, because like you say you put your life on hold for something thst could take over a year!! I hope it's a quick journey for you! I'd never have thought I'd still be here this far down the line😂

@2020missionvid absolutely love for that to happen!! Still hoping af doesn't show up in a few days!

@Minster2012 yesss! Doesn't it!! Shows how long we've been here for😂

@butterfliesx welcome!! Hope af doesn't show up for you! That story though😂 brilliant!!

@KiwiTTC1st id say 8dpo is too early but if it makes you feel better go for it!!x

@bez91 hate when stuff like that happens!! Definitely hoping it's a sign for you!!

@polkadotpixie good luck for the interview and hope those signs mean something good too!!

I'm so confused I'm only CD13, and on days 11 and 12 I had ⭕️ but today I had a static 😃 that has stayed there so peak today?? Wtf?!
Good job I was tracking this month or I'd have missed it!!
We dtd CD11 but I was shattered last night and assumed days off yet so slept last night! Looks like DTD tonight lol

I wonder if I ovulated early last month too?? And missed it?

@Vil10 Thank you, you too! When's AF due for you? Just ordered some cheapies for next day delivery off Amazon which should be here tomorrow but so scared to test.

@Minster2012 oh the cleaning for viewings is the worst!! And getting our hopes up then them giving us stupid feedback like “there’s no balcony” - wel you could have seen that from rightmove so why bother!!

@InkyPaper I don’t know, I’ve been in my current place for 5 years since I first qualified, got promoted 18 months ago but in the same department and I’m bored now so want a new challenge plus I really feel I need some different experience. You’re right though I don’t want to put my life on hold because who knows what will happen!

@vil10 aww I hope so too! It terrifies me a bit but hopefully age is on my side too - I’m 29 so hopefully not past my prime fertile years yet 😂

Oh and forgot to welcome @butterfliesx - love the story 😂

@clolo I never got told how big they can get, I think @Minster2012 is right with her ratio. Reducing meds sounds sensible tho, fingers crossed for you my love!
@butterfliesx welcome, amazing story! Similar happened to my friend too so you're not alone there 😂
@bez91 defo a good omen! Everything crossed for you honey!
@polkadotpixie good luck for tomorrow! 🤞🏾
@JuniperAndTonic defo not passed your prime yet! And we had that with our viewings, things like is there parking. They could see from the ad that we had no parking 🤦🏾‍♀️ so I feel your pain!!

Oh and I didn't say @polkadotpixie yeah a night out in Leicester was a bit much for me (we moved to east York's when I was 16) so I'm talking underage drinking & clubbing 🤫🤭

@butterfliesx "heyyyy yeahhh so I'm sorry I can't come twang your banjo tonight Cos I'm washing my hair" 😉😂love it! So your AF due tomorrow? How long have you been TTC?

@Lexber is this your first time using the CB? It was very accurate for me, so yeah maybe you actually ovulate quite early? Don't forget OV can be within 48 hours so worth it tomorrow too! I think I ovulated on the Monday after I got static on Saturday when I caught

@JuniperAndTonic yep "got no garage" no darling it didn't have a garage on the listing either you knob 😂29?! You spring chicken! 🐥🐣

@Franklydear love your last post btw about showing boss boy up, like you say if the cap fits

Assfruit juice post killer arms workout here & Clarkson's farm on tv.

I better get a knobbing tonight 😉🍆

@butterfliesx well flo app says Monday but might be a bit before, I'm 11dpo now! Ahhh good luck if you do test!!

@JuniperAndTonic definitely got age on your side, I'm 24 and OH 31 on Monday!so like to think we have age on our side, both healthy, active, good bmi's, but apparently that and as well as being financially stable, and dying to be parents with lots of love to give (currently giving it to our fur babies), doesn't qualify for an easy TTC journey😂😂 I really hope you catch soon!! Will this be both your first DC?

@Minster2012 yasss to getting a dickin

@Minster2012 2nd time - last time (2 months ago and first cycle) started testing CD8, circle, then I had flashy smiley from CD9 for 6 days and static on CD15
Last month I didn't track at all...

We have some child free time tomorrow after work for an hour or so, so will be taking advantage of that too... and no kids Sat night (when I thought I would ovulate! By pure chance!) so no doubt we will DTD then too just cos we can and have some loud fun which we REALLY miss 🤣 stealth mode sex isn't as fun...

Ooh good luck @polkadotpixie

Mine is next week @Minster2012 have watched a lot of Ted talks but not really written much of my presentation. Much more prep to do but loads of time!

Massive 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 @Vil10

Excellent planning @Lexber 😉

One advantage of last cycle being longer than usual means that FW in august now shouldn't fall when we're away with DH's family on holiday!

I'm wondering if it was my LP going back to 2 weeks - it was in September time before everything went mental?

Dr is calling me on Monday with blood tests results

@Minster2012 don’t feel like a spring chicken at the moment 😅

@Vil10 yeah it will be our first! Apart from our cat who I love so much I can’t imagine how much I’ll love an actual baby 😂 I’m sorry your journey hasn’t been easy, that really sucks as on paper it should be so easy!!

Omg @larrythelizard we’re going on holiday with my Mum in September totally just had to check whether it would fall in my fertile week (if we’re still TTC) hadn’t even thought of it! It doesn’t at the moment so phew!!!

@Vil10 did you say you would wait until Sunday to test? Oh yes al those good pints mean the world is saving you a special sticky BFP

@larrythelizard ahhhhh next week! I've never seen a Ted talk, am I sheltered?! That's really good about the LP, and not being in FW when with in laws! 🙌🏻

Ahhhhh ok @Lexber so last time it was around then, and yessssss to fun loud sex 🍆🍆🍆🙌🏻😚

@JuniperAndTonic haha thank you!

So sorry if TMI but I just wiped and there was extremely light pink tinged cm. Gone back to check and nothing is there now. I know people say it can be implantation bleeding but can't help to think AF is on her way! Of course it would happen just after I've ordered the tests as well!
