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

June 5 so far! There’s still time 🤞🏻

@Minster2012 I suspect they only want access to my parcels, 😂 at 9 dpo, ouch!

They are allll about your parcels @Franklydear. Yeah well 10dpo today if that's better?!

@Minster2012 behave, he’s nice to look at but he’s a child... the other one I think he’s just aware that these arsehokes don’t like him, but he’s always nice to me so
On the dpo, I know nothing 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Crazydoglady123 I'm ok thankyou, still bleeding a lot but emotionally ok. The GP sent a text too letting me know she was sorting the referral too as well as the hospital, they usually leave you hanging so I'm so appreciative she's been so kind.

Ahhh @Juno231 that's tough. Is that usually the case? Me and DH have disagreements quite regularly recently on the subject. I've always had a higher sex drive and it can just be frustrating.

@Kirky658 oooh is it the NCT one? We did it over a weekend 4 years ago. Met some lovely couples we're still in touch with so was worth the money, the course could have been better and the session on breastfeeding was awful unless everyone has an idilic experience..: "put baby to boob like this and voila" as if it worked like that 😆

@Minster2012 oooh that's early, could it have been an anovulatory? Did you think that before or did I dream it?

Sorry I've been AWOL - work has been insane and I am absolutely shattered now 😴 we've got our first fertility clinic appointment on Tuesday and work have me in at 4am that day so there's an increasing risk I'll fall asleep halfway through the appointment 😂

@blackcurrantqueen happy birthday for yesterday! Hope you had a lovely day 🥳

@Lexber congratulations!! 🎉🎉

@larrythelizard congrats on the new job!!

@Minster2012 when I saw the paint on your floor in your stories, I about died 😂 super impressed you were able to get it all cleaned up!

Hope everyone's OK ❤️

@Franklydear children can be fun, cougars like them 🤪and weren't you due yesterday??

@Kirky658 exciting stuff! We only did NHS antenatal & that was like "formula feeding your baby stunts their brain development" (no lie), is & a lesbian couple had a laugh bout it and when they ended up at the same nursery & we did gymnastics with them we often laughed about our stunted whirlwinds 🤪

@bez91 well we don't really know. I only had spotting after MC then I got a dark on OV strip didn't get a static smile on CB but only Femometer recognised it as a peak (but a low one), fertility friend didn't until I put temps in which did confirm ovulation for same day so I hopefully did but not who the flip knows 😩

@InkyPaper mrs hinch has nothing on me. Well tbh she'd die if she saw my house but I'm just so glad you can't tell now. 4am what??? Why?? Eh?! The first appointments are dull too 😬

Cramping now so def AF. Fucker but here's to a shorter cycle I'm with you @Dollybird89 now! I'm sorely tempted to drive to the new house just to get chocolate that's there that I forgot to bring back. I'd bloody kill for a wispa now 🙄

@bez91 @minster2012 I'm a bit nervous tbh 😅 it's actually a local one run by a midwife, much cheaper than the NCT ones and same idea x

@minster2012 I'm still gobsmacked I went from 145 to 114 to 75 then cd21! Hoping for a short af as I having a girly night at OHs mums Wednesday 😁 first night away from OH since I moved up here ! 3 weeks tomorrow until my clinic appointment too 😁🤞 I must remember to start doing opks once af sods off

I’ve just eaten a box of orange matchmakers @Minster2012 (and 4 Brazil nuts)

Nothing to be nervous of @Kirky658 just don't drop the baby, they are slippery buggers when wet! 🤣you'll be great at NCT & beyond!

@Dollybird89 are you gonna temp?? Cos it caught you a bit off guard! 🤣 that's sounds fab! I'm also hoping for AF to be off by weds as we are going glamping!

@Sunbird24 you could have had chocolate coated Brazil nuts, implantation AND chocolate benefits 🙌🏻I'm not with you on the orange chocolate though. Not a fan. Mint yes. Orange no. 5dp5dt tomorrow, are you getting twitchy??

@minster2012 I'm gonna try I think ... If I remember 🤣

I still have a box of mint matchmakers @Minster2012, they’re very cheap in Asda!

@Minster2012 omg no one can see my house right now, it's a full on disaster zone 🙈 it's a new site launch so I have to be there for some apparent reason. Urgh, I hope it's not too dull, I'll be hanging by the time it comes around 😂 sorry about AF showing up ❤️

@Dollybird89 a 21 day cycle?! What a turnaround!! Hope you're ok

@Sunbird24 I absolutely love mint match makers, oh and choc orange Cadbury giant buttons!!!

Thanks everyone, it still doesn't feel real and I feel like a nervous wreck, I daren't get excited... I had a little spotting yesterday but it was very pinky and watery and minimal but every time I went loo I took a deep breath prepared to see AF... I think a few days with no actual bleed might let me believe if that makes sense?
My appetite is non existent and when I do eat is less than usual or worse I'm not enjoying my usual foods! I had a biscuit yesterday that tasted awful 😢 I LOVE biscuits 🤣

I've been awake an hour....

Laid listening to the other half talk in his sleep, so far he's said sammy is a nice name, told himself he has to drive careful and said "I know I understand" (that's prob as I expressed my feelings and worries last night as it's been 11/12 years since I did this and so much has changed and I'm so much more aware of everything now good AND bad...) bless him 🤣🤣

@larrythelizard amazing on the pay difference!! Yes girl!! 🙌🏼
@Crazydoglady123 gove yourself time sweets, it's been an emotional rollercoaster xxx
@Juno231 sending hugs, there's nothing worse than feeling that way. Def talk openly xxx

@Franklydear check you out 😉
@Kirky658 enjoy the antinatal classes!
@Minster2012 I love lilt - totallllly tropical taste

@Minster2012 I was due Thursday, fucking af showed up on Wednesday, o had my little meltdown and back on it, this morning actually

Morning!

@Lexber awww that's sweet about DH talking in his sleep I think! Have you tested again?

@InkyPaper houses are meant to be "lived in!"

@Franklydear 🤔

Def was full flow even started in the evening last night so that put me at CD1 yesterday & a cycle of 25 days. We'll see what the next one brings!

Sorry @Franklydear I am clearly losing the ability to remember stuff!

No, not yet @Minster2012 going to just see what happens and maybe test later in the week if we get a chance.
The spotting is more like pink tinged EWCM but as I'm wearing a liner it looks more - really watery. Hardly there it just feels loads as I don't want it lol

By the app my AF was due Thursday, by my dates today... so I shall see what happens!
I've packed my tampons in case as I know if I don't I will need them so my thoughts are if I pack I won't need... 🤣🤣 and typically tomorrow nights hotel place has a hot tub.. toe dipping unless I get AF!
As someone previously said (@Franklydear I think) I'm pregnant today! Hopefully it stays that way..

I'm all honesty I think I'm scared to test again which sounds ridiculous so putting it off...

Got this TTC thing is such a headfuck!!

@lexber omg that's adorable about your DH! Still so unbelievably chuffed for you both. Exciting x

@minS

@Minster2012 well, you hardly have anything going on....
@Lexber so exciting

@juno231 that must have been hard for you yesterday knowing you were ovulating. Do you think your OH is just too scared to have sex incase you get pregnant when he knows you're not wanting to this month? If that's the case maybe ask if he'd wear condoms during FW so your sex life doesn't have to ground to a halt. Don't worry about your sex life after kids, you'll be too tired to even think about sex for the first year or so and the times you are horney your OH will gladly jump you the min you say due to the infrequency of it 😂 Don't worry it does get better as they get older or you might have a placid child that sleeps a lot and your sex life might not be effected anyways. It took us till DS was about 2 for our sex life to be proper back on track.

Sorry to hear the unwelcome witch arrived @Minster2012 hopefully your cycles get back on track properly now

@lexber you must be one of the few on the bus who isn't a POAS addict 😂 there's no way I'd be able to resist waiting a few days that's some willpower. Keeping everything crossed for you that you don't need them Tampons but if you do then have the swimming costume ready to jump into that hot tub and drink lots of wine. Enjoy your weekend away.

I'm off to meet one of my friends today that I haven't seen in a year due to lockdown (we live on opposite parts of the country). Have been so looking forward to it and of course DS chooses this morning to be wide awake from 4.30am 😴 I feel vodka redbulls may need to be the poison of choice today

@Lexber it's a great approach, most of the rest of us are far too impatient 😬when's your birthday btw?

@Franklydear 😘

DS & I are off to a birthday party for an hour then swimming so busy morning then taking some stuff to new house & staying there tonight so I might be offline a bit x

@DKDK123 I was obsessed when I started and it drive me insane. Plus the fact I just nearly passed out at BnM as I was getting hot and sickly in my mask and had to go outside and I've turned down coffee (decaf) for the journey as I feel sick... and I'm sat here crying cos I want coffee and can't have it FML talk about losing control OH is worried and asked if I wanna go home bless him. He think I'm upset how can I help him understand I am worried, sad I feel sick and can't eat yet happy at the same time as it's a good sign?!
We are off for a whole week!! Can't wait !

@Minster2012 it's Tuesday xx

@Lexber your OH better get used to you being a hormonal wreck, he's got months of it ahead 😂 God I hadn't even thought of the torture of wearing a mask when pregnant! 😲 I'm sat on a train just now dying to pull my mask off as its sniffling, I dont even want to imagine how it feels coupled with the extra pregnancy heat and nausea eek, hope you have lots of outdoor things planned for your week so you're not having to wear it all the time. Get lots of naps in during the day to take the edge off going without your coffee. Enjoy your holiday.
