Wow that last one was a quick one! The bus driver nearly missed the bus!🏎🚌

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 last bus had loads of work promotions too & we’ve still got interviews so hopefully it’s a lucky bus in more ways than just making babies.

We are here to help and support each other & anything goes. We’ve had losses, heartache & some super fertile short ride passengers so welcome all.

The price of your bus pass is an embarrassing story please, doesn’t have to go be TTC related but can you beat breaking a guy’s banjo in a BJ or whilst DTD?! πŸ€žπŸ»πŸ™ŒπŸ»

And if you see mention of my blog then blame these guys, but I need to carry on with it it, I’ve been lazy! #shamelessplug

Yay new bus!! All aboard 🚌 🚎 πŸ””

kaylsd · 28/06/2021 13:44

Just got back from seaside doggy trip for the week away with the pooch, just in time to catch my seat with my flippy bus pass card as I'm an long cycle cyster crew member (cycle day 56 and sweet FA going on right now) πŸ˜˜πŸ’πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ looks like I've missed lots since being away as the signal is shit but I'll keep my eyes out best I can going forward to be more of a social butterfly on this busπŸ₯ΊπŸ™ˆ

Cheers drive, taking my seat on the roof for July, got my stack of motivational books at the ready to pass the time πŸ€“

Juno231 · 28/06/2021 13:56

@Minster2012 aah my lunch was the same!! also planning on working out lol - thank you for the new bus!

@paintfairy ha at least if it was asking about the weather I'd be able to look that up!

@kaylsd omg what a CUTIE

I'm here taking my spot up top deck till I can figure out all this temping and ov tracking 🀣

@kaylsd how bloody adorable is your pup! πŸ₯Ί

Lexber · 28/06/2021 14:35

Oh balls I missed my stop, looks like I'm hanging about for the ride..

Sat at the back with my laptop on my knee, headphones in whilst pulling my hair out over query invoices and month end πŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

blackcurrantqueen · 28/06/2021 14:41

Hi darlings

Just a quick one from me to let you know that all was okay at today's scan! Saw a little heartbeat and some arms and legs and the recurrent miscarriage clinic consultant said the chances of a miscarriage now is very low πŸ’—

I'm still not sure it's quite sunk in!!

Thank you as always for the new bus @Minster2012 πŸ₯°

I have been reading and keeping up over the weekend just a silent passenger πŸ˜‚ xx

Juno231 · 28/06/2021 14:45

Haha I reckon our bumps and babies list is longer than our actual TTC passenger list now!

Vil10 · 28/06/2021 15:06

@Minster2021 Thankyou for the new bus!!

@blackcurrantqueen absolutely amazing news!! So happy for you lovely❀️

@Kirky658 replying from the last bus, I know I was so surprised!! I rang up at 9am asking for an app and then got a call back at 11am with a female doctor and had a consultation! She was so lovely and understanding too!

@Justanothercyster I know, I felt so nervous to make the call but I feel so much better now!

@Juno231 ohhh really? She said 7 days before period which according to flo my next af is due the 31st July, so would need blood tests the 24th, and according to flo I will ovulate around the 16th! Will that be okay do you think? How random they're asking for your weight from 6 months ago?? How are you supposed to know!

Vil10 · 28/06/2021 15:07

Also, was convinced af was going to show up through the night, felt a bit periody this morning, I'm due today, just had quite a bit of creamy cm that I thought I'd actually started but nope, no spotting, no af pains since this morning and my rhr has carried on increasing??

bez91 · 28/06/2021 15:15

Thanks for the new bus @Minster2012

@blackcurrantqueen that's amazing, I'm so relieved and happy for you πŸ₯°

@Vil10 wow that's super quick, progress πŸ’ͺ🏼 why the chlamydia test though? Prob a different trust so different process. My GP didn't give a damn about my BMI, I never saw them face to face only went for bloods. That's weird!? Maybe retest in the morning?

Day 2 of nausea here πŸ₯΄ of course we went to a trampoline park this morning 😷

Minster2012 · 28/06/2021 15:33

@kaylsd she's waiting for her seaside fish and chips right?! Gorgeous! CD56 urgh what the hell?! Did you by any chance have any spotting or wiping stuff?? I've not had a period but do think my wiping was an AF?! Based on OPKs now anyway πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈit was @manifestingbaby that picked that up for me

@larrythelizard ooo I need a Ted talk don't I!

@Juno231 it was soooooo good!! The weight thing surely if you are ok BMI wise I'd say you were fine! What was the weather like πŸ˜‚the bumps and babies list is! Only a few left to go right?! I bet @Vil10 knows what her weight was 6 months ago, I try to log mine on my apps

@Lexber I've upgraded and put plugs in for chargers this ride πŸ’»have fun with the month end

@Vil10 you def still aren't out yet darling! My SIL only got BFP when AF 2 days late, that was a faint one on FRER but she's now nearly 14 weeks 🀞🏻

@bez91 are you waiting on AF? Trampoline park on my list!

@blackcurrantqueen πŸ₯°πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ₯°πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ₯°πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ₯°πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ₯°πŸ₯³just that we are sooooo happy for you

So another dumbass opk question. 11.30 last weed, is it better to try wait longer or test now then test again tonight? Is a longer wait time better or no point?

OP posts:
Juno231 · 28/06/2021 15:55

@bez91 because chlamydia causes infertility in women so it tends to be a standard test.

@vil10 omg your rhr! any chance you ovulated late? 24th sounds spot on if ovulation is on 16th as peak progesterone is at 7-9dpo :) I think they want my BMI to make sure I've been under 30 for a sustained 6 month period. But as @Minster2012 suggested I'm just going to make the results up - I've been the same weight anyway.

bez91 · 28/06/2021 15:55

@Minster2012 I'm not an expert on the OPKs maybe test again now if you need to go anyway then again later? I've only really tested twice a da, it does my head in πŸ˜† there's a place not too far that has a trampoline park and inflatable park on the same site, good fun when you don't feel like ass! Yes AF due sometime between Thursday-Saturday. BFN yesterday, expecting AF will arrive, symptoms are just sent to play fuck boys right πŸ™ˆ

kaylsd · 28/06/2021 16:03

@Juno231 thank you lovely lady, have you managed to get your paperwork sorted for IVF? Sounds like from what I've heard it's a small tree worth of print out paper πŸ™ˆ

@becarefuloutthere thank you :D she's 2 year old now it flies!!

@Minster2012 hello there lovely lady! Tell me about it, major what the hell is going off with my body 🀣🀣🀣 no EWCM no spotting no nothing, I guess it's a good thing as I'll save money on sanitary wear but still it would be nice just for something πŸ™ˆ she was so good at the seaside bless her even one fish and chip shop lady gave her a free sausage chopped up for her πŸ₯Ί she did well over at the weekend too, took her out to the Harrogate food festival, my pooch seems to have a good social life at the moment πŸ™ˆ how are you sweetheart? Have you had your peak yet as I know you was in a state of limbo? Officially 1 month away to my first clinic appointment, literally felt longer this wait than Christmas coming round πŸ™ˆ

Minster2012 · 28/06/2021 16:17

@bez91 I'm really intrigued on the OPKs atm, but I guess cos it might show my body might be ok again! Just did another & it's lower so either that was peak or it might get stronger tomorrow. I doubt I'll be intrigued in a few months time πŸ€£πŸ™„. Ok so I'll hope that BFN was wrong for you too 🀞🏻

@kaylsd that sounds amazing & what a life your pooch has! One month ahhhh its awful the waiting I hated it but I tell you what it's worse in winter πŸ€£πŸ˜‚ I think my peak was either earlier or may get one higher tomorrow πŸ€žπŸ»πŸ€”not a static smiley face yet so here's hoping and def feel like less of a limbo as I wouldn't have even started testing if it wasn't for this lot

larrythelizard · 28/06/2021 16:27

@blackcurrantqueen I'm utterly thrilled for you πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’• hopefully you can start to relax about it all now

Well done for making the call @Vil10 I also had a chlamydia test so is normal I think. I was expecting a call today with my results but nothing yet.

@Minster2012 yes I owe you a Ted talk, been looking for an appropriate one!

Just send them some snaps over the last 6 months @Juno231 πŸ˜‚...here's me at Xmas, same size, here's me on Valentine's Day, same size etc etc...!

Your dog is living her best life @kaylsd!

Oh @bez91 AF really is a fuckboy!

Somatronic · 28/06/2021 16:57

@blackcurrantqueen fantastic news! You must be so happy.

@Minster2012 thanks for the bus and the constant support!

My boss rang me this morning telling me to cancel most of her commitments because she fancies a lazy week. So I did fuck all today. It's great, and excellent timing because I'm in terrible form (I'm sorry about the constant complaining, I literally have nowhere else to talk about TTC! Will snap out of it soon I hope).

Juno231 · 28/06/2021 17:04

@Somatronic omg your boss sounds fab!

@Minster2012 I forgot to say earlier but I'd totally take that as a peak. I've never used that brand OPKs though mind you.

@kaylsd um could I be your dog please? And yes it's a small tree's worth of paper. Most of it printed on something ancient and therefore very hard to read as well.

@larrythelizard hahah I bet you'd get weirdos doing that you know!

DJmum83 · 28/06/2021 17:20

Hi all.

Thanks for the new bus @Minster2012 completely missed the last one sorry.

All ok here.

Hope everybody else is doing ok.

@blackcurrantqueen fantastic news so happy for you xxx

Minster2012 · 28/06/2021 17:24

@Somatronic stop saying sorry for complaining, that's EXACTLY why we are here! And yessss for having a chilled week (can we all do that?) that's fab! Hope it does you some good!

@Juno231 yeah I think it may have been but we'll see! Just about to exercise whilst yea cooking urgh. I LOVE @larrythelizard's suggestion of sending them a range of snaps! πŸ€£πŸ˜‚

@DJmum83 how you feeling? Don't worry darling

@Dollybird89 ive got a Femometer thermometer which I got last year & it's dead easy. I'm the shit user πŸ€£πŸ™„
