Breaking banjos, poking boobs & getting promoted 🙌🏻it’s TTC bus 44

[Minster2012]

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?! 🤞🏻🙌🏻

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

@Crazydoglady123 I can't begin to understand how that must have all felt and how overwhelmed you must have felt. You're amazing and so brave and should be proud of yourself for coping so well in such a difficult situation.
I'm so please the little one is doing well, as hard as it must be knowing the what ifs.
You will never forget their sibling, they will always be a part of you. Xxxx

Well done @Crazydoglady123, that sounds like a real ordeal for you. Hooray for your little fighter though! Sounds like an active little jumping bean!

@Crazydoglady123 well done being so brave, must be such a mix of emotions with every scan now! So pleased to hear that the baby is doing well ♥️ it's true what @Lexber says, the sibling will always be a part of you and with you 💕

@lexber it's there it's there!!!!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Shitty start to Friday, the dog puked on our spare bed so had to strip and wash the bedding, fine, but it's gone through and ruined the duvet, probably needed replacing anyway tbh but for gods sake 😂

@crazydoglady123 oh hun well done for being so brave and strong! Good to hear the little one is being a cheeky little wriggler ❤️ on the discharge its so so common in the first trimester anyway, can be from the cervix being irritated and all sorts x

Quite a funny and nostalgic thread to chuckle at:

@Crazydoglady123 I'm so pleased it went well today. Your baby's twin will always be a part of your/their story and won't be forgotten but it's so wonderful the baby still cooking is so active. Presumably you'll have another scan in a week or so on the NHS?

@Lexber thrilled for you, stay away from google and stay away from knickerwatch. Today you are pregnant; today is a good day. And repeat!

@Kirky658 eww that is all!

For the first time ive read your music choice and thought NOPE @Franklydear - Nickelback is not for me!!

Ive heard from the recruiter and the new place is going to make me a formal written offer next week 🥳🥳🥳 role itself sounds really exciting and it's just over double what I earn now plus a signing on bonus!! Can't quite believe it!!! Will be accepting it,

Posted too soon, will be accepting it, will tell my lovely boss about it on Monday and that I plan to accept. Hoping they don't hold me to my 3 month notice period but I doubt that somehow!

Congratulations @larrythelizard! That’s so exciting!

Thanks ladies for the love ❤️

@Kirky658 I did wonder if it was from the last scan as it was painful at times. Hope your dogs okay!

@larrythelizard Monday is my 12 week scan! I'm pleased I managed to look at the screen even if it was screenshots. Hopefully Monday I'll be able to bring myself to look properly 🤞 Congrats on the job offer 🥳

That's amazing @larrythelizard congrats!

Well I've stopped googling and knicker watching and just gone to eat some much fancied cereal and cold milk - one mouthful and 🤢 it tasted awful! Gutted as really wanted it ...
even my wotsits tasted crap!

Congratulations on the job offer @larrythelizard! Have you got Sterimar spray for your sinuses? And then a hot water bottle on your face afterwards!!

@crazydoglady123 I'm so glad to hear that your little one is wriggling about nice and strong and a little fighter. What an emotional day it must have been for you having to relive memories of your last scan and the sad news of your other baby. How awful that they made you get dressed before telling you all way ok, given the circumstances they could have at least put your mind at rest asap even if it was just to say, all is ok we'll discuss it more once you're dressed. I know it would only be about a minute or 2s difference but it must have felt like a lifetime to you. I know the rest of the pregnancy will be clouded with worry for you until your little one is born but I hope with each scan and each little kick as it grows you can feel a bit more at ease.

Congratulations on the job @larrythelizard this really has been a good bus for new jobs! And fab news on the pay increase, you must be buzzing 😁

@lexber, food aversion is not fun. I remember when I was pregnant with DS having a major craving for an ice cold can of Lilt. Went to the shop to get one, got into the car took a sip and it tasted disgusting. I bawled my eyes out, like proper my dog has just died style sobbing, couldnt stop the tears flowing for about 10 minutes. DH got the fright of his life because he didn't know what was wrong with me and started panicking till I told him I didn't like the lilt then he burst out laughing (dangerous thing to do to a pregnant lady but I was too distraught at the time to care). He still reminds me of my hormonal outburst to this day any time he spies a can of lilt. 😂

Thank you so so much for the birthday wishes yesterday ladies💕💕💕

@Lexber aaah I see the line, tentative WOOOO in your direction let's hope it gets nice and pink! Xxx

@Minster2012 hmm I think we go for 9dpo and maybe your body is psyching up for a meaty AF after missing one... xx

@Crazydoglady123 ❤️❤️❤️

@larrythelizard 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳that's fantastic!! Well done!

@Lexber your new diet seeks to def confirm pregnancy 😆

@Crazydoglady123 im literally welling up I'm so pleased for you that's so amazing stay strong! You know your other twin will be remembered but the remaining one will thrive.

@Minster2012 9dpo... disregard. 🤞

@Lexber congratulations

@larrythelizard well done and yay to that pay difference!!!

@Crazydoglady123 first so glad to hear baby is ok. Also agree it was cruel to make you wait a second longer than necessary to share that with you. Wtf! I can't imagine how hard this is for you. A loss is always going to be awful and of course it is great that your other baby is doing well but my god that must be so conflicting to be grieving, yet still pregnant and having that worry and scans etc. Must be very hard to separate your feelings or find any closure. Wishing you strength x

Oooh @Lexber looking good, tentative congratulations!

@Crazydoglady123 yesss was waiting your update that's fantastic news. That is a bit of a strange way of doing the scan yes, nothing like leaving you in suspense when your anxiety is through the roof. Your little one is strong 💪🏼 ❤️ so pleased for you!

Yes @larrythelizard that's fantastic and what a pay rise 💰 fabulous stuff!

Thank you @DKDK123 I'm hoping I'll feel less stressed when I start to feel movements 🤞

@Minster2012 @Manifestingbaby I'm hoping when I tell my DS Monday his excitement will start brushing off onto me. I feel so emotional still and I'm starting to get frustrated that I'm crying all of the time still but I guess pregnancy hormones just make it ten times harder to get over this 🤷🏽‍♀️

@bez91 thank you. How are you feeling now?

@blackcurrantqueen ❤️

Thanks ladies I'm pretty chuffed - or I would be if I didn't feel so crap!

Have spent the afternoon absent mindedly browsing cars - I have a company car so will have to get a new one!

@GuessHowMuch I have various Sudafed things and my sister who lives in France recommended a thing to wash out your sinuses with saltwater so have ordered one of those!

@larrythelizard I need to be on the mood for it, I haven't listened to them for ages, great on the offer and happy shopping
@Crazydoglady123 it's all too much, I agree I'll feel better when you can feel the baby

I had an ego boost at work, there's this very young guy, maybe under 25, black, muscled up, hes always flirty, calls me sweety, things like that, he came today very last minute, and complained I wasn't there yesterday so he walked out and came back today, to see me😲 and another regular guy came to see me, to ask about new legislation coming in, the rest think he's s twat, but he's always nice and sweet to me, he's cute so the guys have their backs up, he's 40s, thin, awkward, shy kind of guy, and I am surrounded by alpha males

@larrythelizard ooh is it a netipot or whatever they're called? Well done on the job!!!

@lexber shut the front door! That's def a line 😍

@Minster2012 seeing the pot of paint made me want to vom with anxiety lol, I'm glad you sorted it. Happy it's the weekend?

@paintfairy got everything crossed for your IUI being the one 🤞. Can't believe the SA difference btw 🙊

@Crazydoglady123 so happy your bean is wriggling away but it was tough to read the recount of the scan as it seemed very stupid and harsh the way they communicated in! Big hugs xxx

I ovulated yesterday and had a little cry. Both because of how bad it felt to not ttc and let the egg go to waste but also because I've been SOO SOO horny this week yet got no action from OH. Makes me super worried about what the hell our sex life will look like after kids. I was genuinely ready to jump anyone in the office yday and it made so sad to think that's what I'm thinking about because my husband just isn't interested.

Oh @Juno231 I don't have any advice other than communication is key
We kinda have the same issue in reverse, my libido really drops with the pill and I can't be bothered, caused us lots of problems, but he can't stop taking the pill

Aww that is tough @Juno231 are you still tracking BBT right now? My husband isn't having as much sex with me since we conceived so it definitely does seem to be the norm that it drops the minute TTC isn't a factor anymore. Thankfully I wasn't fussed in the first trimester as my libido dropped but I can imagine it must be tough when you're still going through cycles and naturally get in the mood in the fertile window. Worth having a chat with him to let him know you still want to be doing it. It will also make things easier when you can switch back to trying again if you're already still actively doing it.

@Crazydoglady123 so glad to hear baby is growing well but that must have been so hard going back to the room where you got the bad news before and since they hid it all from you during it 🥺 hopefully it will get easier as the weeks go on although you'll never forget your little one!

@larrythelizard yayyy get in!!!!! ❤️
@crazydoglady123 I always used to bleed after scans. My cervix isn't a nice one it would seem 🤣 I have something called a cervical ectropion. The dog is fine thanks lovely, he was just not fed this morning and stupidly ate loads of bloody grass on his walk.. Plonker.

We've got a weekend of antenatal classes to enjoy 🤣 wish us luck!!!

Look at you @Franklydear & your hoardes of men wanting your attention! Take it babe! 🔥

@Juno231 ha ha I nearly vomited when I saw it too after hearing the crash & "uh-oh" 😬🤦🏼‍♀️I'm then I sent DH a message saying "sweet holy f**k" I was sweating so much cleaning it 🤣. I can't imagine the frustration of your DH not putting out 🙄I get frustrated for only a few days if the drive isn't there let alone when I'm really horny. Is this a usual thing?

@Crazydoglady123 awwww DS will be so excited and will hopefully get you that excitement, it might take more time & things will set you off constantly still but it's a process. Be kind to yourself 😘

@DKDK123 picture for you...totally tropical yaaaaa

@larrythelizard I missed the bloody "almost double pay" BOOOOOOOOMMMMM you get scrolling for that car!

9dpo yesterday I could forgive for disregarding, didn't do anything this morning, however just wiped a full wipe of red blood so I guess the witch has arrived
Annoying as we've got a nice weekend planned 🤦🏼‍♀️
