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 🥰
If you want to sign up & get updates please do, please note your username if you comment shows up to others so maybe make it anonymous I won’t be offended 😂🤣(unless you are mean)

Just sitting on the top, not drunk enough yet, the bus driver probably wouldn't appreciate it, today's music Aerosmith

Justanothercyster · 15/06/2021 17:39

Yaaaaaaaaas @notyetamumbuttrying just saw on insta too! So sooooo happy you finally got your bfp 🎉🎉🎉🎉

2020mission · 15/06/2021 17:42

@Juno231 good luck with the job it all sounds very promising. I'll be thrilled if you get to escape as I know you're suffering a bad boss like me!

becarefuloutthere · 15/06/2021 17:44

@Minster2012 whoopsie sorry! Have wanted to do it for ages and thought today was the day!
@paintfairy oh hun, you're not having the best time are you. So sorry 😣
@bez91 haha keep you all on your toes 😜
@Katiekattty I will do, trying to avoid talking to my mum until I see her as I'll just blurt out my bfp 😂 Nah don't think that, no such thing as jinxed remember 😉
@Juno231 haha that's me 😈🤪
@Justanothercyster thanks lovely 😊

Cheekymonkey3112 · 15/06/2021 17:53

@minster2012 oh my goodness!! You've been through so much, how are you keeping now? I'm sorry you've had such a bloody rough time. I'm glad to hear you've got a DC and on the road to DC2 🤞❤

Cheekymonkey3112 · 15/06/2021 17:57

@juno231 I honestly have no idea regarding LP. This is the first month I've really tracked. I didn't drink on Saturday, I had 1 on Friday and a good few on Sunday but none on Sat. I do remember the day that it is the highest temp it was SO warm, our bedroom was so hot. Not sure if that wouldve made a difference 🤷‍♀️ I do remember the day after FF is saying I ovulated, that I had some ovulation pain (I'm guessing) so I do think I ovulated a day later but I've been going on what that app is saying 🤷‍♀️ goodness knows. I suppose I'll find out if AF rears her ugly head xx

larrythelizard · 15/06/2021 18:12

Sounds fab @Juno231 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 for a decent offer!

DKDK123 · 15/06/2021 18:22

Just a flying visit tonight to take my seat will catch up properly tomorrow night. But couldn't go without giving a big Woo hoooooooooooo 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 and congratulations to @notyetamumbuttrying I'm so over the moon for you 😁

Cheekymonkey3112 · 15/06/2021 18:37

@becarefuloutthere sorry I must have missed your BFP, massive congratulations to you!! ❤❤

Minster2012 · 15/06/2021 18:59

Ahhhhh @Kirky658 you are new business, yeahhhh that might be a bit tumbleweed 🤪🤣

@Franklydear why would I not appreciate it long as it's making you happy & I can share?! Come on you know me better than that 😘

@2020mission have you decided to stick it out for maternity?

@Cheekymonkey3112 thanks! I'm ok, these lovely ladies keep me going, literally for well over a year now, we are a community 😘

@Minster2012 😂 I was referring to the 3D driver of my actual bus, you’ll drink with me one day, thanks, that made me laugh

Minster2012 · 15/06/2021 19:14

@Franklydear 🤣😂🤣😂oops well at least I made you laugh you delinquent!!

@Katiekattty what does the estate agent have to do, for yours or the one you want? I was like that with the one we are buying which needs work still not got any decent layout ideas though 😬we are good to exchange tomorrow!

Dollybird89 · 15/06/2021 19:18

I'm in same boat as you @minster2012 still no full AF but still getting the spotting.. cd74 for me though 😂 . It can stay away till next week .. oh is off from Fri till wed .. I wanna make the most of 🍆🤣

Franklydear · 15/06/2021 19:28

Ladies, brief getting my head out, Loki is out, eye candy dh can say nothing about...🥰🙈🤦🏼‍♀️

Katiekattty · 15/06/2021 19:35

@Minster2012 she called us and told us we had a few offers and also cash offer. She hasn’t formally sent all the offers, only one since Saturday. We’d like to see the other offers because the one we have is 10K more than we put the house up for but he’s having trouble getting his mortgage in principle and we’d prefer the cash offer. We want to accept an offer before we put in ours for the house we like. It’s at the top end of our budget so we’d like to get in before anyone else.

Cheekymonkey3112 · 15/06/2021 19:49

@Minster2012 it sounds like you guys are all close, I'm pleased to be part of it. Thank you xx

feliznavidad2 · 15/06/2021 20:10

@Cheekymonkey3112 no idea re. Temping, only using OPK at the moment - never say never though. Good to know re. @Juno231 's charting expertise though! ⭐️

Sorry to hear about your poor arm @paintfairy - do kick up a stink, it's sad and wrong, but unfortunately it usually seems that the ones who shout the loudest get taken the most notice of.

Are you in the travel industry @Kirky658 ? Nosey. 👀

@Minster2012 the symptom siren has been going off again 🙄 I'm spotting again, 6dpo. Who knows. I do have to remind myself that I've got endometriosis and that without being on the pill, this could just be some weird hormonal break through bleeding. 🤨

Minster2012 · 15/06/2021 20:12

It's so frustrating @Dollybird89 I don't know how you long cycle ladies cope, I thought my other ones at 37 days was sooooooo dull 😖I'm hoping yours stay away, I've stopped spotting again now. It was only on wiping but the last bit darker so who knows!

@Katiekattty ahhhhh I see, bloody hell what's the estate agents playing at?! So since Saturday you've been hanging on or longer? I'd be going mental. Very annoying that the 10k above one is then struggling, is the cash offer asking price do you know even?

@Franklydear you and Loki are close, he is there for you too, DH can therefore not complain 🤗🙌🏻

@Cheekymonkey3112 we are, we help each other out that's why a lot of our bump graduates like to stay around too & we also like to know how it's going, gives us hope! You are very welcome to the crew xx

Kirky658 · 15/06/2021 20:19

@feliznavidad2 yep I am, for my sins at the moment!

Franklydear · 15/06/2021 20:25

Sorry I am ignoring you all, I just need a little break and normal service will resume soon, although sexy avengers chat might drag me out

Cheekymonkey3112 · 15/06/2021 20:41

@feliznavidad2 haha! I think ill enjoy it when I start seeing patterns from cycle to cycle (although hoping I don't see the patterns and I get a bfp haha)

@minster2012 yeh that's true. I'm definitely happy to have some like minded people to talk about periods and DTD with along with other TMI that would be frowned upon to speak about in real life 🤣

larrythelizard · 15/06/2021 20:53

I'm not very good at films @Franklydear but is Thor an avenger? He is my cup of tea for sure!

🤞🏼🤞🏼 for exchange tomorrow @Minster2012

@becarefuloutthere now this is very confusing!!! What are your next steps? When will the clinic scan you?

Symptom spotting is a bitch @feliznavidad2. Desperately trying not to do it after mega nausea last month which obv turned into AF!

That cruise advert is doing my head in - I accidentally click on it all the time and must have about 8 tabs open with the bloody cruise on!

Franklydear · 15/06/2021 20:56

@larrythelizard Thor is an avenger, Loki is his brother, the god of mischief😉, technically not an avenger but my favourite one, I prefer captain America of the proper ones
Loki’s new series running on Disney +

Haiyaa · 15/06/2021 21:08

Welcome @Cheekymonkey3112, your DS sounds like a real character 😂

@Franklydear, enjoyed Loki, can’t wait for next episode tomorrow but probably won’t get to watch until the weekend 😢 think I’ve said before that I would love to be the filling in a Thor/Loki sandwich 🥪🍆 and they’re not REALLY brothers so that’s ok right?! 😂

@becarefuloutthere what gave you done?! 🤣🤣🤣 will try to remember it’s you!

Great news on the house @Minster2012, that’s moved really quickly!

Sounds very promising on the interview front @Juno231, plus I am super jelly of your swanky night on the tiles! We’re going out for a child free night away this weekend at a as gorgeous restaurant (owned by Dan Smith if your watch the Great British Menu), so excited but also a bit gutted that I have to skip the wine flight this time 🙃

Katiekattty · 15/06/2021 21:12

@Minster2012 the cash buyer us 5K above the asking price. We’re going ask for someone else to take over tomorrow because this is a joke now. We’re trying to catch the second bit of the stamp duty holiday as well. We’ve rang so many times and all we get is she’ll call back.
