Shackets from yesteryear, baltic crotches ❄️ and lots of ostriches 🐦 TTC bus 48

[bez91]

It’s been thirteen million years & Minster & the good time crew are still here…its September, autumn in full swing and we haven’t done too bad so far this month compared to previous months but I still think we are owed ladies.

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

Agency bus driver at the wheel.…

All aboard bus number 48

@paintfairy I know it wasn't the best 🙈
@larrythelizard he's okay at the moment darling, he managed to shake it off quite quick but I heard the thud from outside then I ran upstairs and saw him dangling I didn't know whether to laugh or cry😫 now we have a situation where we need new plastering in our room and the landing 🙈🙊 endless pit of money our old little house

Just a shame it didn't happen whilst it was hot @kaylsd as I read a 'hack' where you were meant to leave your loft hatch open for the heat to escape! Glad he's OK!

Oh @minster2012 not what I was hoping to read xx if it helps I'm eating all the crap food for us both! Sending big hugs 🤗

I am so sorry @Minster2012. I know the feeling, prepare for the worst but hope for the best i have everything crossed for you!

Bless you @Minster2012 - you're in my thoughts lovely. x

@larrythelizard I didn't know that but thank you lovely!
Morning ladies hope you guys are all well, @Minster2012 sending the biggest hugs to you this morning.

Anyone any good with RHR? Mines been on the increase the last 4 days from 66 - to now 71? Trying not to get too excited but it's not the normal for me this although it may be stressed linked with my holes in my roof 🙃🤣 I'm 12 DPO today

Morning ladies and thank you again just finished watching MAFS in bed from last night & then I plan on watching silent witness x2 🤪@paintfairy you need to catch up!

@Dollybird89 how are you? Do you have other family members around?

@larrythelizard that really made me well up ❤️, 😘I have many freaky quirks down as minster specials so let's think the cysts maybe. Though everything I read about partial molars suggest what they can see (the sac & yolk) isn't unusual and still means it's not viable

@kaylsd that really made me laugh last night, not the hole but you saying he must not be traumatised as playing! I know nothing about RHR I'm afraid but I've got everything crossed for you

I also know nothing about RHR but at 12dpo you should be able to test @kaylsd...?

@whatwonder having been there many times before I know that no words will help to calm your worries so just quietly holding your hand and hoping for stronger lines in the next few days for you.

@kaylsd what a time you're having! Hope hubby was OK after his roof fall.

@minster2012 what a headfuck for you, so sorry the scan wasn't the straightforward happy scan we were all hoping for you. Being left in limbo for 2 weeks just feels so cruel. Really hoping they're wrong with the molar part and it's just your body being a fuckboy, the dates part tho there isn't much between 5.5 and 6/1 especially when they're measuring that early on from what I've read it's very hard to get an accurate dating at 6 week scan. I won't tell you to stay positive as I know you'll be up and down like a rollercoaster for the next 2 weeks so just going to say that we are all 100% here with you. Rest up and look after yourself for now. 💕

@Dollybird89 how are you holding up? Hope your OH is taking good care of you just now.

I'm like a zombie today, was up from 1am-5am non stop coughing with this bloody chest infection. Luckily my boss told me yesterday not to come in today just to rest up. Stupidly I thought I'd walk DS to nursery this morning thinking the walk might help clear my lungs but nope it just made it worse and everyone was looking at me like I had the plague as obviously I kept going into coughing fits should have carried a sign with me saying its not covid! 😂 Back to bed for me, may catch up on MAFS as I'm about 5 episodes behind.

@larrythelizard I don't tend to early test with my wonky cycle history as you guys know I've always been the long haul kind of gal with my PCOS I'll take a test on 14 DPO and then if BFN sill see if I can go for gold for longer cycle than 117 days like last time 🙈
@DKDK123 thank you hunny he's Bob on, continued to play fifa after the fall happened and he's going to gym this morning, if I fell through a ceiling I'd be bandaged up wanting 24 hour care from him 🙈

@Minster2012 I think I'm only 2 behind now! Hopefully catch up tonight. We watched 2 last night and the final vigil too.

@InkyPaper 🤞🏼the clinic will ring soon, how exciting!!

@Minster2012 I'm so sorry it wasn't the kind of news you were expecting and that you're having to go through this, but 2 weeks, we can do that, and we're all here supporting you and holding your hand! I'm keeping everything crossed and sending you all the love and positive vibes in the world❤️ saw this on the way to work this morning and thought of you, I hope it's a sign🤞🏼🌈

@kaylsd oh god what a rubbish day!! Hope your DH is okay!!

@DKDK123 oh god that doesn't sound fun!! Hope it clears up a bit for you! Use today as a rest and sofa day!

Well we're finally going to meet our friends baby this weekend (the one who I did the hamper for and who's baby shower I helped organise) we couldn't go these last 2 weeks because I didn't want to pass anything onto her with having this cold, and the first 2 weeks she was born was when OH had his assault and he didn't want anyone to see his face, I'm so looking forward to meeting her, our friends took just over 3 years to conceive too so I feel like she's special!! Off for a curry tonight too for my sisters birthday, mid week cheat night and I can't wait!! Hope everyone else is okay❤️

That doesn't sound very pleasant @DKDK123 pleased you're resting up now. Can you steam yourself or something to get some relief?

Ah yeah of course @kaylsd but you did get a really strong OPK didn't you? Anyway will keep 🤞🏼

Hoping you're alright today @whatwonder.

Went to the gym this morning, hit a PB in terms of one lift on Monday and pushed hard this morning, can feel my fitness returning after the sinus infection in the summer which is pleasing me!

@kaylsd I'm a terrible wife and would have laughed but looking at the photo he's fortunate to not have fallen down the stairs too 😳 RHR could be a sign but I'm less convinced the more time goes on. Mine hasn't really been high this time and it was last time 🤷‍♀️

@Minster2012 really hope you hear something from the top bod today that might be able to give you a little more insight 💕

Sounds lovely @Vil10 I've been wanting a proper curry for ages! It always feels nicer when you know they've not just been popped out in a strange way. Hope DH is back to his normal self now

Yesss go @larrythelizard amazing how one illness can throw you right off track but sounds like you're getting back to it 💪🏼

Nothing exciting happening here, driving round the county like a blue arsed fly with far too much on at work. Had some weird painful crampy pains this morning I'm trying to ignore!

Hope you are doing ok @Dollybird89

@DKDK123 you poor thing, hope the meds start helping soon. I know it's awful isn't it, total sick shaming these days! You feel embarrassed to be ill for goodness sake!

@Minster2012 take care of yourself x

@kaylsd 🤞🤞🤞 know nothing about rhr but you are coming to the end of the tww so not long to wait. I'm not far behind you, 9dpo. I feel positively absolutely 100% the same as every other damn month! Not holding out any hope.

@Vil10 @bez91 thank you ladies, I haven't a clue what curse we may have in our house right now but I've just heard a massive thud upstairs to find DH legs dangling up in the air as his computer chair back collapsed and broke and got him wedged between a lamp and a cupboard, I burst out laughing but he's grazed his arm... talk about a walking hazard jeeeez🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@larrythelizard I did indeed that's why I'm hopeful that I may not be having a long cycle but we shall see! I'll keep you all posted no doubt :)
@Manifestingbaby glad we're in similar boats hunny my heads starting to ache so I do think my dear old AF will just be around the corner for me sadly im hoping one day if it happens I can be like so calm and collected in the TWW like now considering google AF symptoms or BFP 🤔 🤣

Very stressed over here. 🙄 Finally managed to speak to someone from the clinic. I am meant to be starting this month but I need to start medication Saturday. And I've still not heard from the drug company. So whether I'll actually be able to? 🤷‍♀️

Oh how disjointed and annoying @paintfairy - will the clinic chase for you/do you have a number to chase the clinic?

Sending 💕 @Dollybird89

@larrythelizard I spoke to them this morning and they were like oh they'll be in touch. Which century I'm not sure. If I haven't heard by the end of today I'll email the clinic first thing in the morning and ask!

FFS @paintfairy - have they given you a phone number?

(I'm laughing at myself here btw as I have two phone calls I need to make I and I'm putting both of them off!)

@larrythelizard oh god yeah I hate ringing people. I've got a clinic number but not a drugs company number. I've no idea how fast despatch is to be honest. But I'll contact the clinic in the morning. Honestly. 🙄

Come on @paintfairy give them a call! It's Thursday tomorrow they can come for then but you know how things are, chase chase chase

Well the update from me is basically no update. The top sonographer just said rescan in 14 days, with her. And not 2 weeks yesterday unfortunately @larrythelizard not one day done, 2 weeks today 😔she just said "it's early rescan" then appointment with EPU

I know it's cos then they will be able to meet their 14 day "criteria" to see if it's viable & then decisions with be made after that, a likely D&C if they do think partial molar. But why not have a scan next week too? It would surely be informative (not conclusive I appreciate that) but very helpful from a mental health point of view.

And the nurse said EVERY 3 words or so "oh bless you" in the most patronising and false way to the point I nearly screamed if you say bless me one more time I'm going to drive into a wall.

Sorry rang over. As you were

@Minster2012 I hate the bless you, how does it help me? We'll need an advent calendar of 14 rainbow memes for you
@DKDK123 rest up, it's the only thing you can do, serial chest infections here, and Vicks vapour rub,take the rest of the week off and sleep, on the people, I wish we had the right to bear arms in this country, I cough, a lot, I am asthmatic, tilted head 'shouldnt you be at home then' 🔫 die die motherfucker die, maybe it's good that we can't....

Nothing happening here, potentially fw, not feeling it though, all very meh

@Minster2012 I only spoke to them earlier so I didn't want to look like a nutcase ringing twice in one day. So I emailed at 3. No reply obviously. So yes I'll call tomorrow. I can honestly say I'm not impressed so far. Communication is terrible. When I finally got hold of her today (I had left voicemail Friday and also emailed before today) she was like- oh yes I've signed your protocol off. Have you not heard from the drug company? I was like- no I've heard from absolutely no one since my consultant video appointment, which is why I'm ringing! Because I've no idea what's happening. Then she sent me a load more info on the portal. But basically everything is done via that, you never speak to people or have a clue what's going on. Today I got told it'll all make sense when your drugs turn up. Well let's hope so. Not that they are likely turning up. But if they ever do.
I dunno if it's covid or this is standard?
Whoever told me it would be better than the hospital, was lying. At least they answered the phone. Rant over. 🤬

Well done for calling although shit outcome @paintfairy. 🤞🏼 for better news tomorrow. I managed to email one person instead of calling and tried a second and they didn't answer.

Die motherfucker die @Franklydear. Love it!
