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
& minstermusings on insta - some of our ladies have made special anonymous accounts so we can link up via me 🥰 so if Insta gets mentioned it’s there

If you want to sign up & get updates please do, please note your username if you comment shows up to others so maybe make it anonymous I won’t be offended 😂🤣(unless you are mean)

Taking up their seats & buckling up...

@Minster2012 🥰😭🥰😭🥰😭🥰😭

Minster2012 · 13/09/2021 09:11

Thanks, am totally shit scared. Which kinda negates happy which is awful but I'm so pleased to have you lot. We can all do a huge hand hug pulling each other through. One day at a time

It seems September IS lucky, I'll bring lots of sand for more ladies to join us & lots of room for more BFPs too

@larrythelizard do you have an eta on the laptop? Are you thumb twiddling til then?! A long breakfast?

InkyPaper · 13/09/2021 09:15

@Minster2012 !!! Big squeezy hugs for you ❤️ keeping everything crossed 🤗🤗

@bez91 nah, AF is super duper irregular for me so I can't predict anything 😂 I can only guess based on symptoms

larrythelizard · 13/09/2021 09:17

It's so natural to be shit scared @Minster2012 but having had a MC before apparently doesn't mean you're any more likely to have a MC again. Day by day. And a good collection of ostrich ladies on the bus at the moment to hang out with.

Had a call from someone at 9, he's mortified at my onboarding experience! Apparently there's a couple of other new hires and he's going to send me their details so I can chat to them. Also big boss will call me to say hi. I think I'll get comfy and watch some silent witness! And try not to buy more things on the internet...

larrythelizard · 13/09/2021 09:19

@InkyPaper I enjoy your PMT descriptions, same here - I didn't use to get any of it whilst on the pill/implant or actually most of the time TTCing this year so I view it as a good thing that hormones are getting better?! Not sure DH does though 😂

Vil10 · 13/09/2021 09:25

@Minster2012 omg, keeping everything in the world crossed and sending you huge hugs❤️

Bundaberg84 · 13/09/2021 09:27

@Minster2012 that was a sneaky one! Congratulations!!!

Juno231 · 13/09/2021 09:31

@larrythelizard I missed the update in the end - last I remember it was Friday and you still had no idea what was happening today - did they ever let you know??

@bez91 I still giggle at the thought of your Northern accent Grin

@Minster2012 I was reading your post thinking is she saying what I think she's saying and then stumbled upon your pic and explained "WHAT THE?!". Snuck that one in there didn't! Super strong line so I really hope this is it for you, all my appendages crossed. Any idea how many dpo you are?

@DKDK123 I am so so hopeful for you - it's like all your signs pointed towards this.

Not gonna lie though ladies, it's CD1 and all the BFPs are making me feel extra barren today - I just can't believe I've gone this long without seeing a single positive pregnancy test, I can't even imagine the day where I might have one.

Haiyaa · 13/09/2021 09:34

Is that what I think it is @Minster2012?! Absolutely fantastic news! September is shaping up to be a good month - but then again we are owed one!

It is terrifying, and it gets better but it doesn’t completely go away - I’m convinced there won’t be anything at my 20 week scan and was the same at 8 and 12 weeks but somehow am getting there. But we are all rooting for you and your rainbow 🌈 this makes me so happy, especially when it is a long haul passenger getting her BFP!

Haiyaa · 13/09/2021 09:36

Oh @Juno231, it’s been such a slog for you and it must be extra frustrating having to put off IVF for work, but the end is in sight. With your IVF appointment being delayed is there a possibility of a BFP before the end of the year? I really hope so ❤️

Bundaberg84 · 13/09/2021 09:40

I'm going mad! The metallic taste is still here! Cramping as if AF would start every minute but didn't so far. Yesterday or today would AF be due. Of it arrives now, I know to never be able to trust my body again. Cramping, breast hurting, all things I could make up or imagine to happen, but metallic taste that doesn't go away even after brushing teeth for 10 minutes? Bonkers. I'm going bonkers.

@Juno231 sorry you feel that way. Sending you a virtual hug - your time will come!!

@DKDK123 🤞🤞🤞

Juno231 · 13/09/2021 09:42

@Bundaberg84 not sure how you resist testing! I hope AF stays away

@Haiyaa can't believe how time has flown! When is the 20 week scan scheduled for?

InkyPaper · 13/09/2021 09:42

@Juno231 I know exactly how you feel, I've never seen a positive test either and I doubt I ever will. Some days it just hits harder than others ❤️

Bundaberg84 · 13/09/2021 09:45

@Juno231 I tested on Saturday with second wee and it was negative. I figured if I start having hormone related symptoms it must be detectable already... And it was an early detection test.

Vil10 · 13/09/2021 09:48

@Juno231 you and me both girl, all I've had is shit false positives or evaps, I literally cannot ever imagine getting that positive test

larrythelizard · 13/09/2021 09:50

@InkyPaper @Juno231 sending huge amounts of love. Your time will come 💕💕💕💕

@Bundaberg84 id so be testing again...!

@Juno231 had a phone call this morning with some info but can't do a lot before laptop arrives. Man who called me knows it's on the way but unsure when it'll arrive...!

Vil10 · 13/09/2021 09:52

@InkyPaper @Juno231 we've got this shit❤️

Juno231 · 13/09/2021 09:59

@larrythelizard omg so you started your first day of work not having a clue what was going on? That's my fear lol. I haven't had a peep from the new job yet - I don't even know the office address lol or whether I'm expect to wfh or be in the office. Luckily I have three weeks still!

@vil10 @InkyPaper big hugs to us all

InkyPaper · 13/09/2021 09:59

@Vil10 @Juno231 hell yeah we do ❤️

@larrythelizard thanks lovely ❤️

bez91 · 13/09/2021 10:10

@Juno231 I'm not THAT northern, they'll be ladies on the bus more northern than me I live in the East Midlands 😆 you're time is coming, you've come this far 💕

@larrythelizard resist the internet purchases 😂

DH is going to miss out on our shopping trip this afternoon, he's stuck on the M25 right at the front of the XR protest, oh well shopping without men is more fun right. Just no one to caddy for us 💁🏼‍♀️

Minster2012 · 13/09/2021 10:20

@Juno231 12dpo, last cycle was 13day LP so expected AF today or tomorrow but feel shocking & wine tasted bad 😂🤣wins for beef tartare in think. I'm sorry that's why I kind of wanted to put a trigger warning I'm really sorry 😬You will get there, and @InkyPaper and @Vil10 And this prob isn't the end for me

larrythelizard · 13/09/2021 10:22

You too @Vil10 💕

YES I KNOW @Juno231 I'm a complete control freak so awful. Trying hard to focus on controlling the controllables. I now know where HQ is (nice new offices in London 👌🏻), and there's talk of being there twice a week for a bit which I'm definitely in for!

@bez91 carrying your own bags is terrible!!

Juno231 · 13/09/2021 10:22

@Minster2012 don't be silly, I'm super happy for you! Although whispering it for now, until you feel more settled in it. And yes beef tartar was a lucky one to sneak in!
