Your service has been interrupted as your normal bus driver has connectivity issues. Just as well there's a driver out there who's done the route as cover before...! As ever, apologies if I've got any of it wrong!

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 minster's blog then blame the ladies on the thread but @minster2012 needs to carry on with it it, I’ve been lazy! #shamelessplug

Lol @Vil10 you're making me feel so old 😂

I'm constantly amazed by your knowledge @Juno231👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

OP posts:
Minster2012 · 01/08/2021 09:41

Morning ladies, operation clean up here 🤣😂

@Juno231 really?! Gosh, we are pretty sexual ppl & sometimes the mood just takes us! We have had sex in every room of our other house including the utility room, but now we have a whole new house to go out! You need to get christening those rooms! @larrythelizard you too!

@InkyPaper don't forget there's a few Ppl from this thread that the ivf worked first time including @becarefuloutthere right? And 3 of my friends too

@Vil10 OMG you felt old!! There's no hope for us 🤣I was going to ask you last night how the spotting was I'm pleased it's gone away

@Franklydear how you feeling today? I can understand DH wanting to wait till Tuesday it depends how you feel

Franklydear · 01/08/2021 09:45

And there is a part 2 www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/4311455-Locked-parking-thread-2

@larrythelizard to test at some point🤦🏼‍♀️?
@Juno231 he has, hasn’t he? Is not just mummy pride, right?
@InkyPaper nothing ever comes with garantees, but bloody hell, ivf is a scientific wonder, and great to have as an option, my friend got at the second try, this amazing woman wouldn’t have been a mummy without it, and without having to search far, look at our amazing minster and others here
Still nothing to report, dh keeps saying af will come tomorrow, I think he might be shitting himself this might be real, might, just might for now

Laurenxx94 · 01/08/2021 09:45

@Vil10 sounds like a fun night! Sometimes it's just what you need ❤️

Franklydear · 01/08/2021 09:50

Only seen @Minster2012 message now, I don’t know how I feel, full on tall wall for the moments, feelings are complicated and unpleasant, had no urge to poas this morning, the longer I leave it the longer I could be pregnant until proven by a bfn, right?
On the every room, we no longer have the athletics for it, and with Velcro ds is quite difficult even on your own bed tbh

blackcurrantqueen · 01/08/2021 09:51

@Vil10 period coming or baby getting snuggly I'm rooting for one option 😂
Glad you had a nice night! Jealous of your mums roast dinner to be honest 😂

@Minster2012 I hope DH does a significant amount of clear up as penance for the lack of prep 😂

Lexber · 01/08/2021 10:02

@Juno231 I not only ran it under cold water I then held it in a tub of cold water next to me while I worked to ensure the whole are was cooked (too many years first aid training and too busy to sit down 🤣)
It was my one stupid fault...

Haha @paintfairy I did sit there thinking ooh that's nice.. then was like WTF?!? 🤣

@InkyPaper it's a shame some people can't just stay positive and not give the negative- you guys have got this!! 🤞🏼🤞🏼

@Franklydear this is my eldest not my ASD daughter, the eldest eats everything and anything the youngest... it's her terms, if she likes it she eats it to the point I'm sick of seeing it but always stock up so we have plenty with them promises she will go off it and I have a cupboard full 🤣🤣

We are the same @Minster2012 but older 2 kids are massive cockblocks 🤣 the camper van is a godsend haha we even had a cheeky afternoon one last sat at santa pod, we only went back to get something out the van and leave the coats...

@Franklydear , @Juno231 is right he really has but you be proud. I know how hard it is!! We've noticed my younger one (11) has progressed so much this last 18m it's crazy and scary and been so hard but worth every second and I'm so proud of her and us! So you take that moment and be proud of him but most importantly you! Xxx

2.30am sat in bed with awful heartburn... runnier and milk help but I bloody hate heartburn!! Also had this last month.. I swear I feel like I have gone back a month it's surreal 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 to a different outcome if I have

Laurenxx94 · 01/08/2021 10:09

@Franklydear I suppose your right lol!
Are you overdue for AF now? X

Laurenxx94 · 01/08/2021 10:10

@Lexber oh I hate heartburn it's horrible 😭 hoping it's a good outcome for you 🤞🤞 when is AF due xx

Franklydear · 01/08/2021 10:12

@Lexber that regularly happens to us, goes from must be sure we never run out to make sure you never buy it again...it is hard to land the helicopter, he is also 11 and starting to show much faster progress, I don’t want to sound my own trumpet, but I do work hard to advocate for him and to teach him to advocate for himself, which I am starting to see, which is great for me, my mum was always make sure you never inconvenience anyone, hasn’t serve me well, so I change the tune to make sure you speak up when things don’t work for you, obviously help people when you can too

Minster2012 · 01/08/2021 10:27

@Franklydear yeah I can imagine a velcro DS not ideal for exploratory house sex (or anywhere!) we all need a camper van like @Lexber though I'm thinking a "we're just nipping to the garage" might work now!

@blackcurrantqueen yep tbh he's been really good this morning, and even managed to build the marble run. We've just got a few toys to try work out what bits are from what! But he's doing work now whilst I try do the last bits

I don't think I've ever had heartburn 🤔

@Laurenxx94 how did your OH take the news?

Lexber · 01/08/2021 10:36

@Franklydear we sound very similar in our ways of teaching.. I've spent this last 18m concentrating on independence and it's been hard st times but the long goal is worth it!!
You sound that trumpet!!! We work very hard to advocate when we need. Having a non ASD daughter 3 yes older I can see the difference so much and you wouldn't realise how differently parenting an ASD child is unless you did it .

Be proud and blow that bloody trumpet 🎺 because you've done an amazing job fir 11 years and will continue to be amazing too xxx

Lexber · 01/08/2021 10:38

@Minster2012 the van is great, I've made OH pull over in a lay-by before when I've been ridiculously horny 🤣🤣

I hate heartburn, suffered terrible with eldest, and had it last month a couple of days before BFP and strangely enough every night until my loss, then bam nothing again until last night?!?!

Lexber · 01/08/2021 10:41

[quote Laurenxx94]@Lexber oh I hate heartburn it's horrible 😭 hoping it's a good outcome for you 🤞🤞 when is AF due xx[/quote]
CD23, 10dpo I think as got my static after 4 days of O no flashing ones just a static?! That was CD13 usually a 28dayer so she Sat I think?

Franklydear · 01/08/2021 11:02

I had the most horrible heartburn in the last trimester, I still remember it, starting to have a bit of nausea, DH verdict? That's af coming, wtf! I can't say anything without that being af coming

Laurenxx94 · 01/08/2021 11:17

@Minster2012 yeah ok, he can't get happy because of the chemical he wants to see a bit of progression with lines . I done another test today and don't see much difference but I know this can be normal for just a day! Going to do
My digital on Tuesday 🤞 xx

Laurenxx94 · 01/08/2021 11:17

@Franklydear I had nausea yesterday which pushed me to test. I get it sometimes before AF but yesterday I actually thought I was going to be sick 🤢 xx

Laurenxx94 · 01/08/2021 11:18

@Lexber how r u feeling. Xx

Franklydear · 01/08/2021 11:27

@Laurenxx94 unfortunately I have nausea often before af, have even been sick on occasion, we had an early loss in November, so I guess he's gonna resist as much as he can

InkyPaper · 01/08/2021 11:31

@Vil10 I'm sure everything will be fine! They just need to double-check it is all

@Minster2012 @Franklydear @Lexber thanks lovelies. Trying not to let her get in my head. My AMH is pretty low though (1.6), which I think is why I was worrying but there's no point doing it at all if I don't have a little bit of hope! Positive thinking and all that 😊

Vil10 · 01/08/2021 11:40

@larrythelizard hahaha I feel it myself, I can't drink like I could when I was 18, I hate the hangover, I don't even think it's worth it!!

@Minster2012 hahaha honestly everyone was so young there it was crazy!!

@Laurenxx94 absolutely what I needed! When're you going to do another test?

@blackcurrantqueen so does make an amazing roast too not to rub it in😂 how's everything on your end with the isolation?

@Lexber @Franklydear keeping everything crossed for you two🤞🏼

@InkyPaper at least they're being thorough!! Ignore your friend, negativity is not welcomed!!

@Lexber saw you mention santapod?? I didn't realise it was even a thing until my OH said last week he's going next weekend, I'd never heard of it before, it's quite a drive for him though, over 3 hours I think he said!

So I was right girls, af full blown this morning and she's making herself known, I feel horrendous, feel sick with it, led on the sofa in the foetal position but nothing is helping, been crying too😂 I feel like there's a tiny witch standing in my uterus scraping at my insides with a scratchy witchy af broom, taking the piss out of me, bless OH, he was like "is there anything I can do? I'll get you some chocolate and we'll watch a good film tonight after your mums, I was gonna go to the pub but I won't bother" 🥺

Laurenxx94 · 01/08/2021 11:58

@Vil10 I done one this morning don't see much progress and very worried again 😭 can't let myself just be happy because of previous loss 😞 will attach a pic!

So sorry af arrived for you it doesn't get any easier xx

Franklydear · 01/08/2021 12:07

Oh dear @Vil10 did af arrived? I missed that

larrythelizard · 01/08/2021 12:23

Oh fucker @Vil10 sorry to hear that x

OP posts:
Lexber · 01/08/2021 12:44

@Laurenxx94 I woke so tired I fell back to sleep and have only just dragged myself into the shower - I feel absolutely wiped out and meh. Away with the fairies and could easily sleep again but trying to get up and move

@Vil10 sorry to hearAF came, it's horrible when it hits hard too ((((hugs)))) look after you today! First time at Pod for me and nearly 2 he drive but was a great day!

@InkyPaper PMA is all I can say to you ❤️
