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

@Dollybird89 mortified 🀣
@bez91 imagine!
@clolo good luck for the next step tomorrow. Think I forgot to congratulate you on your amazing number of egg! Fantastic news. Hope all the fertilised eggies are doing well πŸ˜ƒ

GuessHowMuch · 02/07/2021 23:38

Hi everyone; long time lurker here and hoping to officially jump on board please? I’ve got 2DC already so trying for a third (I’m nearly 38). Going into my third cycle (with a chemical on my first πŸ˜”) and not including the cycles at the start of the year before I was diagnosed with some gynae issues (about which I have my head firmly implanted in the sand - at least I’ve got something successfully implanted!!).

Sending lots of luck to those who have upcoming scans and transfers.

Kirky658 · 03/07/2021 05:46

@larrythelizard yayyy to being drunk ❀️ tbh sounds awful I'm glad she couldn't visit yesterday, we are going through a phase where it always feels so difficult when we do catch up, think we've drifted apart a bit.

@clolo good luck today, hope it all goes well!

@bez91 @amy00 good luck to you both today too πŸ€πŸ˜˜

And yes I am awake at this time on a Saturday. Blame the baby pummelling me in the stomach πŸ™„

Sounds a good evening @larrythelizard are you there all weekend? Fantastic news on the job, knew you'd do well πŸ’ͺ🏼

DH forced me out of bed this morning to do another test, the line is the same as Thursday πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ so prob a CP. DH thinks it's because my piss is bright yellow from taking Proceive πŸ˜† but I don't share his optimism. Period due today so should be darker I think.

Amy00 · 03/07/2021 07:17

Thank you ladies! Scan is at 9am so just got to get up and go really.

Couldn't sleep last night and had a dream that DH had our babies instead with donor eggs and he had triplets born at 19 weeks and we took them home and they turned into Guinea pigs and hamsters and we only had one cage so was worrying whether it was ok to put them all in one cage. Soo many issues with that story - I'm losing my mind πŸ˜‚πŸ€£

Good luck today @clolo and @bez91 !!

Amy00 · 03/07/2021 07:19

@bez91 just read your update, I'm sorry you think it might be a cp 😞 how faint is it? A line is still a line 🀞

Franklydear · 03/07/2021 07:22

@bez91 a line is a line, the test doesn’t measure how pregnant you are, can I suggest a digi weeks one for the next test?
@Dollybird89 that’s the cm you want, does femometer do ransom attacks? 5k or we release your cm picturesπŸ™ˆ
@clolo step by step
Thank you all, ds is fine again and I have a plan with the gp, so feel reassured, it could be physical or psychological, but we'll get to the bottom of it, unfortunately he can really explain what’s happening and just tell us

@Amy00 wow that's some crazy dream πŸ˜‚ not as bonkers as yours but I dreamt my best friend was pregnant with my brothers baby 😳 hope it all goes well today for you πŸ’• update us! I've attached a photo top is Thursday and bottom this morning, I don't think a good outcome is pending πŸ™ˆ

@Amy00 oh my world, that dream.....
@larrythelizard good going
@GuessHowMuch welcome, I don’t really like the idea of people lurking, just say hi, we’ve never thrown anybody out yet, your embarrassing story lady
Happy birthday lovely @blackcurrantqueen

Franklydear · 03/07/2021 07:28

@bez91 bottom is darker

paintfairy · 03/07/2021 07:45

@bez91 can't help but I understand your thoughts. Time will tell but the not knowing isn't nice. Fingers crossed for you.
@Franklydear sorry to read about your DS. I hope you get to the bottom of it.
@Lexber if I did nothing in case I was pregnant then the last 18 months would have been dire. Go on the rides. 🀣 In 'old' days they didn't have tests like now and people would have never have even known early on. I also know people who have done all sorts not knowing and its been fine. I've also known people who were mega careful and it wasn't fine. I think nothing really changes the course its going to take. Enjoy!
When I had my op I was in the 2ww and they were like- any chance you can be pregnant? I was like- no. 🀣 Nothings worked up to now. She just looked at me.

Minster2012 · 03/07/2021 08:47

@bez91 ah god damn it, was really hoping it would be lovely & fully visible by now 😫but I agree with @Franklydear the bottom is darker so maybe you have slow rise hcg

@Amy00 that dream is both hilarious & terrifying 🀣

@Sunbird24 are you looking good for your transfer next week? 🀞🏻

I'm jealous of all the πŸ† If I had a low sex drive before, now it's so much worse 😫

larrythelizard · 03/07/2021 09:23

@bez91 I think the bottom one is darker. And you haven't been tracking so don't really know where you are. There's definitely still hope.

I'm heading home early doors tomorrow as going away with DH and DS. We're glamping and the rain was very loud last night!

Sending love and sticky vibes @Amy00

Sunbird24 · 03/07/2021 09:57

Hi @Minster2012, yes still good! My drugs all arrived yesterday. I’ve pinched a nerve in my neck though, so hoping the nice relaxing massage I booked for tomorrow will also help with that πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

bez91 · 03/07/2021 11:27

Thanks you lovely lot, I've got 1-2 on a digital but I'm still not too optimistic. Will leave it until Wednesday now I think or I'll go mad.

Definitely @Lexber for me if it doesn't work out I know 'something' has happened this month and this is the only month I've not given a damn and gone mad on booze, crap food, trampolining in TWW, no exercise so sod it enjoy Oblivion in the pissing rain πŸ˜†

Don't know where you are @larrythelizard but the rain is bloody awful here, hope you stay dry and have fun!

@Sunbird24 ouch sounds painful 😣 take it easy!

Amy00 · 03/07/2021 11:33

I had my scan and can't actually believe it but we saw a heartbeat πŸ’“πŸ’•πŸ’— it is still measuring a week behind but has grown the right amount since last week so I'm happy with that. I had prepared myself for it to be bad news and what the next steps would be, not prepared at all for good news, this has caught me totally off guard, I broke down into tears when she turned the screen round and showed me the little flicker 😭 she did a tummy scan first and couldn't see much because of too much gas 😳 so I immediately assumed this was confirmation of the worst and omg just the shock was real. OH was allowed in as well, so glad he could be there as he wasn't allowed in the building last year.

I think I might have the courage now to tell the GP and start the ball rolling 😭

Kiwibabyjourney · 03/07/2021 11:54

Everyone I'm really scared now 😭😭 I need some advice and I know I have been so stupid!!
About a month ago I did research on fertility, conception and lengthening luteal phase and sites said vitamin E. So I got some.

For a couple of weeks now, say 3/4 Ive been taking it daily (400UI). Now I've done some more research and I'm absolutely terrified I've done some damage as there's a study that links high vitamin E diets to heart defects!

What have I done!! I thought I was helping 😭😭😭😭 I don't know what to do 😭😭 I'm shaking and panicking! I'm 4 weeks pregnant now.

Kiwibabyjourney · 03/07/2021 12:00

Just looked and I've only taken 25 days of them. Could that so lasting damage? 😭😭 I'm an absolute idiot! πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

Haiyaa · 03/07/2021 12:28

@bez91 the bottom does look darker and when they dry they look even darker so probably is more of a difference than you think. Keeping fingers crossed for you!

@Amy00 great news on the scan, glad you got to see the heartbeat πŸ’—

Exciting @Sunbird24! What day is your transfer?

@Kiwibabyjourney it’s fine, just stop taking them. Nothing you can do now. Stress will only make things worse.

Nice one on the interviews @larrythelizard, you have so got this! New job, next stop baby!

becarefuloutthere · 03/07/2021 12:34

@Amy00 thrilled for you!! How many weeks are you now then?
@Kiwibabyjourney I'd speak to a healthcare professional to ease your mind, a midwife etc, hopefully it's fine though.
@bez91 1-2 weeks is a step in the right direction, can understand your caution tho. We're all rooting for you 😘
@Sunbird24 good luck for transfer when it comes!
@Haiyaa how are you getting on hun?
