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

minstermusings.co.uk for the blog that’s where the full stuff happens
& minstermusings on insta - some of our ladies have made special anonymous accounts so we can link up via me 🥰

@Tornado2Inc I hardly ever drink, mine would be surprised by the wine, not the absence of it, maybe DH can swift the glasses every so often, gives the impression yours is being drunk too
@Kirky658 yes, the moment came much earlier for me too, but my DH is so chilled sometimes you have to check for a pulse
@Minster2012 in this house is my body my decision, extend to hair

becarefuloutthere · 26/06/2021 18:57

@Minster2012 I missed that you weren't well this morning, hope ok now?
Yay to the opk's going up, looking great!
@Tornado2Inc was thinking about you earlier! We're only days apart. I'm 5w4d, also got my 3+ at 5 weeks so yay to you too! Enjoy sunny Crete, very jel! Lol to the Greek yoghurt 😝
Good luck with the fake out spritzers!
@Kirky658 haha I do love a delayed male response 😂
@clolo good luck for trigger and EC tomorrow! Rooting for you on here and the donkeys 🐗😜
@Kirky658 @larrythelizard poor Wales! Dh is part welsh so we always cheer them on!

paintfairy · 26/06/2021 19:05

@Tornado2Inc how did you get to crete? I didn't think we could go there. I can't keep up. I'm well jealous. 🤣
@Juno231 sorry about AF. Terrible timing. And yeah I think iui is pointless but it's hanging over me like a curse....

Tornado2Inc · 26/06/2021 19:07

@paintfairy didn't think we will get here until the last moment 😂 now I think they won't let us back 😂

Minster2012 · 26/06/2021 19:12

@clolo I def thought that OHSS was in the run upto EC but could be wrong 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Kirky658 that's really sweet of DH though

@Franklydear exactly as it should be

@becarefuloutthere thanks yes I just had a terrible nights sleep & woke up all shaky so it was a bit of a cortisol crash but I had my emergency injection & chilled out & feel ok now just got a headache

We are getting a Chinese soon so that should help! I'm starving

paintfairy · 26/06/2021 19:15

@Tornado2Inc 🤣 oh well. Beach and cocktails forever then!

bez91 · 26/06/2021 19:18

Oh so jealous @Minster2012 😋 DH cooked tonight but I haven't had a Chinese for ages.

Wish I'd not bought more FRERs today 🤦🏼‍♀️ Somewhere between 9-12 dpo judging by last cycles and trying to talk myself out of testing tomorrow 😫

Franklydear · 26/06/2021 19:24

@Minster2012 we have to have a Chinese every month now as ds decided it he loves it, happy to oblige ( weird for a kid with issues with textures but well accept anything)

larrythelizard · 26/06/2021 19:27

Oh that's tough @bez91 I think it depends how many you bought?! You could test tomorrow and if BFN then again on tues?? But if you've got more than you could just go for every day until AF?!

I like Chinese @Minster2012 @Franklydear but DH not as keen so tend to get Thai take away if we're going to.

DS negative for covid but not well so not eating anything other than peppa pig fromage frais and mini cheddars. Thankfully he's now in bed asleep, it's been a long day!

paintfairy · 26/06/2021 19:52

@Franklydear I don't think Chinese is too bad on the texture front. I never thought about it like that but I've always had a texture issue. Can't eat raw tomato for example but can eat it soft if it's grilled (hate skin though) and I've never eaten garden peas because I can't stand the skin. Struggle with beans for the same reason. I'll eat apple crumble but couldn't eat an actual apple. My DH has got me eating some veg now but he has to steam it until its completely soft. 🤣 I can eat raw onion though? 🤷‍♀️ Makes no sense.

Franklydear · 26/06/2021 20:00

@paintfairy for him is things to avoid are hard on the outside but soft on the inside, and ideally same texture all through, but then spring rolls? yes, please🤷🏼‍♀️

Vil10 · 26/06/2021 20:38

@lucyrp so glad your results were negative!!

@Juno231 ohhh no!! I'm so sorry!! Hope you're okay!x

@Tornado2Inc wooo on the 3+, also so so jealous, Crete is my favourite place, hopefully there in august🤞🏼

@Minster2012 yasss to positive opks!! I love how you skipped the whole boring bit of a cycle, get that bonking in girl🍆

@Kirky658 aww you're stuff arriving!! I bets it's all so exciting!!

Only just catching up now! After my first aid course finished I went and met a friend for a cheeky gin in the sun, then came home and made tea, now just chilling trying not to think about testing tomorrow😂 haven't had any af pains since this morning, got sore boobs, when we were doing abdominal thrusts on the models we had them against our chests and my boobs must've hated me, it bloody killed!! Rhr stayed high like it was this morning, on the way home I felt wet and was convinced I'd started but just creamy cm, still no spotting! The only place near here that sells frer's is Superdrug in town and it was shut so I had to go to home bargains and pick some up from there, got 3 ic's but they aren't accurate until the day after a missed period, and some others that say up to 6 days early! I feel like I'm excited to test because I'm either spotting by now usually or my rhr has dropped, but these slight af pains have me doubting myself and I don't know if I'm just getting excited for no reason??

Kirky658 · 26/06/2021 20:47

@vil10 I'm feeling very very optimistic for you lovely!!!!! All signs are pointing to some good news... My signs were absolutely knackered, and sore boobs!!

Vil10 · 26/06/2021 20:50

@Kirky658 I'm really scared to test because I feel like it's going to be negative! My boobs are sore but not swollen or bigger, just normal and squishy😂

Kirky658 · 26/06/2021 21:01

@vil10 mine were the same, just very uncomfortable mostly. And I had the feeling like AF was coming but it was just CM. All you can do is keep everything crossed 🤞❤️

Vil10 · 26/06/2021 21:07

@Kirky658 also today whilst on this course, I was sat down but leant forward trying to see a screen for about 5 minutes and when I sat back I had cramp in my uterus area, like actually cramp you'd get in your hand or foot, was only for about 10 seconds but I don't think I've ever had that, I just can't shake these af type feelings I'm getting! You're right, I'll know either way tomorrow, and if it's negative I can get drunk on OH's birthday and eat lots of cheese!x

Minster2012 · 26/06/2021 21:11

@bez91 I saw that on your Insta, wee quickly in the morning, save til Monday 🤞🏻

@Franklydear I love that! We haven't had one for ages

@larrythelizard good on the negative Covid but booo to illness, I'm not going to be long for bed (especially as need 🍆🤪)

@paintfairy raw onion?!!! What??

@Vil10 I know right?! And I was lucky to escape a really heavy AF after MC I guess. We are all behind you & if you test tomorrow we are all rooting for you

Well I did another opk & it's low, also did another CB & that's not changed so maybe a bit of a false start? Who knows

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

Vil10 · 26/06/2021 22:07

@Minster2012 because your body is amazing!! I'm definitely testing first thing, I'm nervous, but just know I have a day of drinking on Monday if it's negative😂 also with opks, I read the best result will be between 11-4, I found with mine I usually got the strongest around 10/11 with smu, and even if I got a positive on that day if I tested at night it was low a lot of the time!

becarefuloutthere · 26/06/2021 22:24

@Minster2012 ah ok, glad you're ok on the whole then 😘 I bet the Chinese helped! 😋
@Vil10 not long to find out either way now! Hope you manage some sleep! I'm always a wreck with these things x

Minster2012 · 26/06/2021 22:24

@Vil10 ah I see, do you think testing over 4 hours later is actually worse? I didn't do another as didn't wee til late Cos wasn't feeling well 🤣 🤞🏻🍀all the luck hun xx

OP posts:
Vil10 · 26/06/2021 22:56

@becarefuloutthere pretty certain I'me out, started with mild cramps and they're exactly like af cramps! Still going to test but I'm not getting my hopes up! Hope you're doing well xx

@Minster2012 I found that it was for me! You drink a lot of water too don't you?? I found the more diluted my wee the less accurate the result, like a pregnancy test! Thankyou!!x

Juno231 · 26/06/2021 23:03

@Minster2012 I second @vil10 - my results are always shit in the evening even the same day as a peak!

@vil10 please tell me you're testing first thing tomorrow cause I'm bursting with excitement

@Tornado2Inc create?? You lucky biche 😍

Minster2012 · 26/06/2021 23:08

@Vil10 @Juno231 oooo thanks well I haven't actually drunk much water today as haven't felt well so maybe that helped? We aren't that well covered if it was today but we'll see what tomorrow brings, however I have just wiped some ewcm on toilet paper! First time ever on paper so 🤞🏻(all that assfruit juice & EPO Juno!)

Come on @Vil10 we will all be checking in 🍀😘🤞🏻

@minster2012 as long as you like it, that's the important bit 😄 omg I wish I had that level of energy - I'd be unstoppable! Glad you're feeling better now

@larrythelizard glad your DS tested negative for covid, hope he feels loads better soon

@Vil10 oooh keeping my fingers crossed for you! 🤞

Juno231 · 26/06/2021 23:11

@Minster2012 woop for ewcm!! Fingers crossed for a temp rise in the next couple of days
