Here I go again...TTC Bus 45 - blood sucking dungeons, whitesnake and angry cervixes all welcome...

[larrythelizard]

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

Welsh ladies, I need your help! We have the chance of a weekend away in early august, give me suggestions, please, the brief: family friendly (autistic 11yo) some culture, a beach, not too crowded (yes I know I said august), we’ve been to Cardiff and loved it

@Franklydear tenby is my favourite for holidays!

Thanks @lucyrp it looks great!

@Franklydear obviously it will be busy in parts, but what seaside town won't be in august. There are lots of other places and little towns not far from tenby too

@lucyrp would be great if they could clear out for a weekend, 😂, I mean not too crowded without scape, it looks like our sort of town definitely, and we’ll have a car to wonder round

Morning ladies hope everyone is OK ❤️ I am struggling so much in this sodding heat!!!! Yesterday DH and I went for a photoshoot. While we were ttc last year and nothing was happening I got him the couples boudoir photoshoot as a bit of a joke really 🤣 so we went for it yesterday and made it a bump boudoir shoot instead. Not going to lie, I've never felt so sexy in my entire life. I even bared all (tastefully) for some photos too 😜

@Franklydear Pembrokeshire! (We love Broadhaven beach), it's lovely.

Ah just saw what @lucyrp - agree, Tenby south beach was quieter in our experience. There's lots of lovely beaches and scenery in that part of the world. 😊

@feliznavidad2 gotta love Wales!

@feliznavidad2 shhh you're not supposed to tell anyone about broad haven 😉

@lucyrp not even me? Hurt now

Oh sorry @lucyrp 🤐 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 😆

My Mum feels similarly and she doesn't even live in Wales.

@feliznavidad2 we have a few small welsh beaches we go too and when they appear sometimes on news articles about "secret hidden beaches" my mum goes mad and she's like well they're not very secret anymore are they thanks to you! 😂🤣

We are looking for places interesting to see, we wouldn’t be in the beach for more than a couple of hours, if that, I come from a place with lovely little tiny beaches, my mum would also like to bar outsiders from them

Hi everyone, thanks so much for all your messages of support yesterday, they were so nice to read as I was struggling. So the physical part of it is over now, but holy shit the pain was bad this time. Even on a cocktail of cocodamol and ibruprofen the pain was horrendous. I kept feeling like I was going to be sick, and like I was going to pass out. Thankfully did neither but urgh not a nice experience and seemed a lot worse than last time! Managed to collect the "product" and took it into the hospital this morning for dna testing. The whole thing is just grim. And the weather is so lovely I'd almost prefer it to be raining to match my mood at the moment!

We are going to ask for a referral to Dr Quenbys recurrent miscarriage clinic via the GP on the NHS as they are doing research into these things, and we can also pay for them to do additional testing as well like NK killer cells.

So trying to stay optimistic that we have a plan but also I am terrified that I might not be able to have babies. Also have a fear that OH will leave me for someone who can have his babies 💔 but he hasn't said anything like that and is being a superstar so supportive but I can't help but worry about the future. So trying not to think about it 😬 plus we pick up our puppy in 3 weeks so focusing on that.

Hope you are all well and enjoying the sunshine!

@amy00 so sorry to hear you've been in so much pain lovely. And it's very understandable to feel how you do, I would definitely speak to your OH though as he knows you better than anyone else and will be able to reassure you. I've been there with my DH with my endo when we were told we might not be able to have kids and it's awful. Xx

@feliznavidad2 definite step in the right direction, I need to get my ass in gear with it. Sorry to hear of the bfn 🙁

Sounds fab @Kirky658 I've always wanted to do one, a solo one though I didn't know couple ones were a thing or least I haven't seen them. Hope they come out good 😉

@Amy00 so sorry you've been in so much pain, really hope you're over the worst. Speak to DH, he won't think that at all although it's hard to not feel the way you do. Sending love 💕

Interview tomorrow morning, I've spent all weekend in the sun eating and drinking my own body weight 🥂🍹🍻 so not much prep going on here. Planning to wing and see what happens. Conflict of interest the panel consists of my current manager and potential new manager (who I've actually worked for before) 😆

@bez91 deffo recommend it after my experience yesterday! I got the couples one off virgin experiences about November time it was on offer for £12 and I got hair and make up done too!

Came on for a quick scroll hoping to see some good news but I'm just devastated for you @Amy00 having seen your updates. I'm so sorry for your loss and that's it's all been so awful. Take care of yourself , I can't believe how cruel life is sometimes x

@Franklydear tenby definitely has a lot of lovely places surrounding it I could suggest for you to visit, including some lily ponds, castles etc so if you want feel free to message me and I'd send you some suggestions over!

@lucyrp @Franklydear @feliznavidad2 I went to Pembrokeshire a few times growing up and liked it. I was wondering whether it was worth heading that way to go away for a few days. Its just a bit of a drive. I remember some lovely beaches! I've never been to Tenby though.

Far too hot again today. Went to a family bbq though, which was nice. Last minute thing.

Where did my message go? Morning
@lucyrp definitely take you up on that one
@Amy00 hugs, I’ll rewrite to you later if it doesn’t appear, but hubby loves you

Busy day yesterday, hence the missing

@amy00 I know it doesn't take away any of your pain just now but I'm glad there's testing they can do so that hopefully you won't have to experience the heartache again next time. Speak to your OH I'm sure he will reassure you that he is 100% here for you no matter what challenges are thrown at you. Glad you've got the puppy to focus on for now, it'll be hard to feel down for long when there's a little pup showering you with kisses and jumping all over you.

Good luck for your interview today @bez91 🤞

Glad the photoshoot made you feel sexy and confident @Kirky658, did you get to see the photos on the day or do you go back to view them?

9dpo, drop in temp, drop in rhr, feeling crampy, couldn't stop eating choc and bubbling yesterday so I'm guessing AF is approaching tomorrow/Tues. I know there's the teeny glimmer of hope that it could be implantation but my LF isn't consistent like the textbooks say it should be (mine can be anywhere from 10-14 days) so a 10day LF isn't uncommon for me and it is very plausible that AF is on the horizon. Obviously trying to hold on to the tiny glimmer of hope but I've just had rolos for breakfast during my pity party for one 😂 (I did do a 2 mile walk before it so only feel half as guilty as I should at having chocolate for breakfast).

@dkdk123 yep we got to view them on the day so we could choose which ones we wanted. We chose two, one slightly sexier one of me on my own with bump and one with me and DH kissing bump. I'd have loved them all but they were so pricey! Also rolos for breakfast is an amazing idea!!!! ❤️

Quick scroll check in from me whilst signal dog walking! @Amy00 totally get what you mean about wanting miserable weather to match the mood but pleased the worst is over for you

@DKDK123 rolos for breakfast? Amazing! I had a 10 day LP last time so I'm hoping for longer

@bez91 good luck with the interview!

@paintfairy how's the TWW?? How you feeling?

@lucyrp is it the midwife app tomorrow? Omg you could let your baby soon!

@Kirky658 is it last week working for you?

@feliznavidad2 how you feeling are you in TWW too?

I've started getting flashing smiles on CB so I'm in FW now & got such a busy week flitting between houses, painting, making a scarecrow for old house, various appointments & trying to get what work i can do out and about too so will check in when I can

Much love to all & hoping AFs stay away for all
