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

I'm liking the sound of a well behaved pelvic floor @Sunbird24 πŸ˜‚πŸ˜ƒsounds useful for childbirth! Glad you are feeling hood, I'm praying those beans are burrowing in for you

@2020mission πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜†that's great!

Well that's a turnip (turn up) for the books eh?!

So today is my daughters birthday..: let's see where this goes... πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

Quite a dream @Lexber!!

Thanks @Minster2012 still feeling pretty ropey but got most of today to pull myself together

Happy birthday @blackcurrantqueen πŸ₯³πŸ₯³πŸ₯³ hopefully DD gave you a lie in until at least 6?!

GuessHowMuch · 08/07/2021 07:44

β€˜Mildly prolapsed cervix’ checking in for an update. My temp has gone up this morning so it looks like I may have gone back to ovulating ridiculously early again - if OV is confirmed it’ll be CD9. Hardly any DTD because of stupid insomnia and tiredness - throwing this cycle in the fuck it bucket.

Sorry to hear about AF and your sad milestone @Franklydear πŸ˜”

Franklydear · 08/07/2021 07:51

Thank you all, I have a day off so no doubt I’ll have a good cry at some point need to get it out of my system, then I’ll have an activity with the boy after school so plenty to get distracted with, busy month with school transition and time off at the end of the month so distractions available

Happy birthday @blackcurrantqueen
Good luck @larrythelizard
Who else has things on today?

Sunbird24 · 08/07/2021 09:01

@Franklydear Flowers and Wine from me - I would have been due 30 June from my first transfer, and had my third on 5 July. It’s certainly a rollercoaster this journey we’re all on.

I’ve got Equality & Diversity training this morning on Zoom, that should be interesting. Hmm

Kirky658 · 08/07/2021 09:11

Happy birthday @blackcurrantqueen!
And good luck @larrythelizard you've got this in the bag x

Franklydear · 08/07/2021 09:23

Thank you @Sunbird24 is not even on dhs horizon, to move on like a man eh? I am so glad I have you all to whimp and be comforted, it really helps, my company also makes equality and diversity all for show, women employer of the year awards, my arse.

bez91 · 08/07/2021 09:47

Happy birthday @blackcurrantqueen πŸŽ‚

You'll smash it @larrythelizard πŸ’ͺ🏼 go on girl!

Your Insta story although tragic did make me laugh @Minster2012 πŸ˜‚

@Franklydear do what you need to do for you today, cry, chill, binge watch/drink πŸ’• we have a family wedding today, the men got inebriated last night, bride asked me this morning how they were - I may have bended the truth πŸ™ˆ I was first for hair and makeup at 7am so have never looked so good at breakfast πŸ˜†

paintfairy · 08/07/2021 10:05

Omg the cervix names 🀣
@Vil10 if that were me I would be reevaluation my birth control! The pill isn't working if she does take it correct. Why would you want to keep doing this?
@blackcurrantqueen happy birthday!

I'm currently sat with my legs in the air. IUI round 2 complete! Made the right decision waiting with the sperm - it was over double the count of last time. Motility is really good too- highest we've had at mid 50 odd percent. And better follicles. So if it doesn't work this time, it never will. πŸ™„ I have to lie here 10 minutes before leaving. 🀣

@paintfairy fingers crossed

Manifestingbaby · 08/07/2021 10:42

Oh sounds good @paintfairy! Hoping so hard for you. Interesting it's 10 minutes, I can never manage to wait too long after dtd, it's usually 5mins max and then I'm up for a pee. Probably not helping my case 😬

DKDK123 · 08/07/2021 10:49

Happy birthday @blackcurrantqueen and happy birthday to your DS @lexber, cheese strings are a lot cheaper than FRERs, if only they could detect bfps πŸ˜‚

Good luck today @larrythelizard, you've got this 🀞

Have fun at the wedding today @bez91, hope the men aren't feeling too rough!

Great news on the sperm improvement @paintfairy keeping everything crossed with you lie with your legs in the air letting those swimmers work their magic πŸ˜‚πŸ€ž

Big hugs @franklydear, this journey doesn't get any easier especially when you have milestones approaching. Next month will be us hit our 2 year mark with still no baby to show for our efforts, while I'm fine about it this month I know I'll probably be an emotional mess next month when it actually comes to it. Loving your flower nails, take time to keep pampering and looking after yourself this weekend.

I weighed myself after my birthday weekend and I'd put on 4lbs which was expected as we ate drank and were merry the whole weekend having great fun. I've been powering on with my walking the rest of this week adding in lots of hills (now 70.3 miles into my virtual NC500 challenge), weighed myself this morning and I've lost those 4lbs again πŸ₯³. So you CAN have your cake and eat it πŸ˜‚ To be fair weigh loss and exercise is easy while I'm off work and feeling all the stress lifted. The real challenge will be after the holidays when I return to work and I'm zapped of energy trying to motivate myself to move and not stuff my face with sugar to keep awake or using choc to combat stress. πŸ™„

Lexber · 08/07/2021 11:04

"Lovely cervix" checking in 🀣

Happy Birthday @blackcurrantqueen you share it with my daughter πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‚

Vil10 · 08/07/2021 11:17

@Kirky658 oh me too!! OH came in at 1:30am chanting "it's coming home", I couldn't help but laugh, but now I'm knackeredπŸ˜‚

@blackcurrantqueen happy birthdayπŸ₯‚πŸ₯³β€οΈ

@paintfairy I said this to her last time, suggested going on something else, clearly hasn't taken the advice, but yet it's such a chore for her when she gets pregnant?? Keeping everything crossed for you, all sounds good so far🀞🏼

@larrythelizard good luck lovely🀞🏼

@bez91 have a lovely day today!xx

@DKDK123 wooo well done!! That's amazing girlπŸ’ͺ🏽

Franklydear · 08/07/2021 11:22

@DKDK123 and I’ll be here for you, just as you are for me, and hope one day we can love about this with our little babies

paintfairy · 08/07/2021 12:25

@Manifestingbaby I often wait much longer than 10 minutes but it's never made a difference. πŸ˜†

DKDK123 · 08/07/2021 12:26

Thanks @Franklydear 😘 I hope one day everyone on this bus will be sitting with their babies/toddlers and instead of discussing ewcm we'll be discussing whether baby poo colour is normal and how to get a stuck crayon out of your toddlers nose πŸ˜‚

Minster2012 · 08/07/2021 12:49

Wow checking in after v busy morning if you've seen my Insta story you know why!

Franklydear · 08/07/2021 13:02

@Minster2012 on my last smear my nurse gave a factual, high and soft I think it was, perfect for conception, which of course happened, I hope I don’t need to wait another 3 years for her blessing

Franklydear · 08/07/2021 13:03

The nails, I saw a tutorial the other day and I thought I can do that....it’s cheered me up

DKDK123 · 08/07/2021 13:38

An unexpected early peak! I'm only CD 11 or 12, I've not been getting peaks till CD16-18 (I have been thinking the later ovulation may be contributing to the CPs ...... lazy eggs getting released that don't want to go they're literally getting pushed out the ovary having been screamed at to leave since Cd14 and drag themselves out and along the tubes 4 days later with all the enthusiasm of a surly teen being made to visit their granny...... at least that's how it plays in my head πŸ€”πŸ˜‚). I've not had early eggs before (assuming one does actually get released with this peak) maybe this eager beaver of an egg will be 'the one'! 🀞🀞🀞🀞 Luckily we DTD last night, not for baby making just because we had an impromptu date night and had great reconnecting sex. Lucky timing phew! 😁
Feel a bit silly getting my hopes up as I know early eggs can be just as bad as late ones but the fact that something is different this month in any way shape or form does ignite the hope, c'mon little eager egg don't let me hit the ttc 2 year mark, you can do it!🀞
