It’s been twelve million years & Minster & the good time crew are still here…it’s almost September and we basically missed out August for BFPs so we are owed.

Lots of people have got new jobs, had time off, gone on holiday, moved house, but what we haven’t had is the BFP to go with it- what’s with that??

So we’re owed a bumper bus ride right? That’s how it goes surely? If you are looking for a community of lovely ladies who know how frustrating it is when your doctor tells you “all women ovulate on day 14” errrr nope, we know a bus load of women who don’t thanks very much 🙋🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️😆🤔then here’s the bus for you. Oh and we don’t just talk TTC, we’ll chat about anything. In fact that’s positively encouraged cos TTC can be bloody boring sometimes!

It costs an embarrassing life (or TTC) story for your ticket please then you can hop on board

Roll on September ladies, it’s time for tunics, leggings & pulling those tunics up for hot quickie action right??

All aboard bus number 47

I think I was under the influence when I agreed to take on this agency bus driver role 🍻 I endeavour to not drink drive…

Plugging @minster2012 blog \\\___, we’ve had cancer, travels & ivf so need to get to the fun stuff, more ivf, surrogacy and more! #shamelessplug
minstermusings.co.uk for the blog that’s where the full stuff happens

Climbing aboard.
I've been out all day. Half caught up but will have to carry on in the morning.

Somatronic · 28/08/2021 22:49

@Sunbird24 you poor thing. I hope you're doing OK. We're all thinking of you Flowers

Sunbird24 · 28/08/2021 23:17

I’m going in for surgery shortly, nearly 2litres of blood lost, 1 bagful put back in, but they can’t stop the bleeding. See you all on the other side!

Sunbird24 · 28/08/2021 23:17

Oh, and no pain relief yet! 😣

Bundaberg84 · 28/08/2021 23:44

@Sunbird24 keep ud posted!!

InkyPaper · 29/08/2021 00:30

No pain relief?! Good God. I hope surgery goes OK

Sunbird24 · 29/08/2021 01:55

Thank you lovelies, out now, much better x

Thedesirerainbow · 29/08/2021 02:22

@Sunbird24 just catching up now..you poor thing! My god I hope you're looking after yourself and receiving love and support from people around you. Massive hugs, have a good rest xx

lucyrp · 29/08/2021 06:06

@Minster2012 I know two sisters who were both born on the same day just a couple of years apart!

Franklydear · 29/08/2021 07:34

Morning all
Negative test, life can resume
@Sunbird24 oh no, how difficult, hope you’re ok
@Minster2012 a friend has two children same day, four years apart, my brother is 9 days apart, we always had one party until teenage, we refused

Franklydear · 29/08/2021 07:35

@lucyrp it’ll be you on the midnight rambles now😂

DKDK123 · 29/08/2021 08:27

Just quietly slipping in to take my lurkers seat to follow the journeys.
Sorry to hear what you're going thru @Sunbird24

Haiyaa · 29/08/2021 08:35

That sounds awful @Sunbird24, hope the worst of it is over and you can start to heal ❤️

Glad things went ok for you @Crazydoglady123, I know you were really anxious about it.

Jelly of all these quickies, my sex life seems to have tanked with the BFP - not easy to time it to the approximately 30 minutes a day I don’t feel like puking 😂

Justanothercyster · 29/08/2021 08:41

Heyyyy

Tefiti3 · 29/08/2021 09:06

Can I take a seat? TTC # 3 - have a 2 and 5 yo both whom took over a year to conceive so think we are in it for the long run again! These posts have made me chuckle and hope to take away from the mind crippling symptom watch that is TTC!

Franklydear · 29/08/2021 09:10

@Tefiti3 it looks a right fit, embarrassing story for your ticket
@Justanothercyster that’s the whole post?
@Crazydoglady123 waiting for the reveal!!!

larrythelizard · 29/08/2021 09:11

Hope you got some sleep @Sunbird24 and are recovering OK this morning. Can't believe how long you had to wait for pain relief!

Pleased for your negative test @Franklydear

Oh dear @Haiyaa nausea doesn't last forever!

DH accused of nagging this morning. Funny that, he said he was going to do the one useful thing I've asked him to do and then sat there for 45 mins! Of course I'm going to nag!

Franklydear · 29/08/2021 09:15

@larrythelizard only answer is that if you did it I wouldn’t have to nag

Somatronic · 29/08/2021 09:33

@Tefiti3 welcome!

@larrythelizard my fellah doesn't understand that taking hours to do the thing he's asked to do takes the good out of it. He's mostly good though so I shouldn't complain.

I'm having a really sore and heavy period now. This is unusual so may be due to the jab. Cried myself to sleep last night because I'm so fed up of TTC. A friend of mine had a baby yesterday and another is due in a week so probably just too much baby news at the moment for me.

Have to drag myself out to a lunch now with all my friends from home who are either mothers to babies or pregnant. I wish I could stay in bed!

bez91 · 29/08/2021 09:33

Morning passengers!

That's bloody rough @Sunbird24 I hope they sorted the surgery and you're feeling ok this morning ❤️ thinking of you

Yayy for the negative @Franklydear that came back pretty quick!

Welcome @Tefiti3 yes we need an embarrassing story for your bus ticket 🎟

@larrythelizard Mr Lizard 🤦🏼‍♀️ I know the feeling, I have Tuesday off to do all the things DH said he'd do months ago!

DH has taken a sudden weird vested interest in all things TTC this weekend, my cramps what BBT is, hormones, wanting to see my chart 🙈 etc 😳 he said he's really deflated and defeated about the ups and downs for the last 2 months and getting impatient 🙄 hello? 🙋🏼‍♀️

OP posts:
Justanothercyster · 29/08/2021 10:01

@Sunbird24 oh gosh so sorry you're going through that! Hope it settles and they look after you x

@Somatronic oh bless you, we all feel the pain 💕 it will happen lovely x

@Tefiti3 hoping it doesn't take so long for you this time! Are you a Moana fan by any chance? 👀

@bez91 oh bless, it just drags sometimes. Nice that he's taking an interest though.

@Franklydear it was for then, place marked before a catch up

So anyone who remembers my rambles about our old twatty neighbours at the old house may remember they were ridiculously noisy, had to involve the council, etc. Since we've moved, our neighbours have been lovely and considerate, no loud music, going in at a reasonable hour, friendly... apart from one house 😐 they're back garden is diagonally opposite ours, and our bedroom is above our garden. They're not overly noisy with music, but they seem to entertain in their garden ALL the time, which is fine, but unlike others they stay out until the early hours being super noisy, chatty, laughing etc which makes it hard to get to sleep. We've been pretty good about it but last night dh did something so embarrassing I'm scared to leave the house 🙈 it got to past midnight and into the early hours and he'd clearly had enough of the noise so went into the back garden and yelled at them to go inside as they were keeping us awake 😳 I was like... you could've gone round and had a quiet word instead of waking everyone else up! (though they probably were kept awake too by the noise they were making). So impulsive! But hey, they got the point as they went in a few minutes after and we didn't hear a peep 😂 hopefully they get the hint now...
Safe to say, im not leaving the house today...

Jealous of the quickies too, sex life has plummeted as I just feel so insecure with my belly, logistically ruins the "spark" now ☹️

Juno231 · 29/08/2021 10:17

@Minster2012 bloody hell - I could only dream of garden sex! I can't O without my vibrator though so although all these spontaneous sessions sound fun I keep thinking it sounds like OH ends up with the most fun!

@bez91 ah my OH has yet to show any genuine interest, worry or concern related to TTC so I'm kinda jealous!

@Sunbird24 TWO litres?! Way to kick you when you're down. How are you today?

@becarefuloutthere that due date 😍

Went to a friend's house for dinner on Friday (her garden + views attached) and stayed the night. Dinner was tuna steak, mango salsa, veg and coconut rice and I can't stop thinking about how yummy it was! OH then buggered off to Wales with his mates for a good weekend and I've just been entertaining myself. Went to Borough market yesterday, going to Wimbledon for some shopping today etc.

Whilst in Kent I got to cuddle my friend's baby and toddler. It's always bittersweet as her baby is 9 months old and they started TTC after we did...

TTC bus 🚌 47 for all them odd b*tches who DON’T ovulate on CD14 🍳
paintfairy · 29/08/2021 10:18

@Sunbird24 2 litres? Christ. I hope you are OK? I'm so sorry this has happened.
@Justanothercyster 🤣 mortifying. But there's always one house. People are so inconsiderate! Drives you mad.
@Vil10 sorry about AF.
@Crazydoglady123 awaiting the gender reveal!

Minster2012 · 29/08/2021 10:25

@Justanothercyster 🤣😂🤣😂🤣OMG I just spat my coffee out that's brilliant! And also something I've done, for (old next doors dogs) though we had had quiet words before I was out in the garden once & they were just "bark, bark....bark bark....bark....bark" and I just went "OH FOR FUCKS SAKE SHUT THOSE DOGS UP" 😬we actually have a really good relationship with them & later I went round & said "I'm really sorry but you know when you've had a sleepless night & something just PINGS in you?" (Maybe DH could blame pregnant wife?) and it got better then & still good relationship!

@Sunbird24 oh darling I hope you are ok, all the love and hugs and bloody hell I really didn't think TTC would be so tough when I was younger. Said it before, each lady should only be allowed one miscarriage 😩

@bez91 wonder what prompted the sudden interest? Or how long it will last?

@Somatronic oh that's rubbish and shit timing as ever, thanks Flo. Maybe you'll enjoy lynch?

@Haiyaa why so sick? That's not good

@Tefiti3 heyyyyy welcome!! Yeah we like to giggle!

Glad it's negative @Franklydear are you feeling better?

On the birthdays close thing, my lovely neighbour has 3 kids all October birthdays, she jokes that He's very romantic at valentines!

Franklydear · 29/08/2021 10:31

@Minster2012 no nausea today, no signs of af either, dtd this morning and though like vil it will bring af, but alas no, cd 25 and I feel like middle of cycle, maybe I am just going slowly mad?
