Trouble titties, windy 🌬 bums, & full stockings of old 💦…TTC bus 50

When you don’t think about your days as “Monday Tuesday Wednesday” you think of them as “fertile week” or “CD12” we know the feeling.

We’ve tried baby dust (back in early 2020 I think we stopped believing in that!?, we’ve tried chocolate/pizza & sofa sex (remember that? Late 2020, that got a lot of babies!) and now we are onto manifesting, testing, pleading & yet there’s still some unwanted bleeding🤣😂well tough titties we are here to stay til we get those BFPs🤞🏻🙌🏻we just need to rinse out our foofs & get the nurses to wade through our stocking full of old sperm 💦

Whether you are TTC “normally”, IUI/ivf or anything we are a crew that cling together to the bitter end & always ready to help a sister out. We’ve had multiples, some losses so know two lines can be just as terrifying as none, and we’ve got ladies where those two lines are more illusive than a white Christmas 🎅🏻

It costs an embarrassing story for your ticket, doesn’t have to be TTC related as we know laughing when TTC is needed.

If you see mention of Instagram I have a public account where a lot of people are linked too:
Minstermusings, and a few people have created new anonymous accounts to record their TTC journey/life stupidities m/general annoyances on…just don’t mention TTC on a personal account.

@bez91 maybe that could be a selling point to tui on long haul flights to travellers, anyone want any free headphones? Or Condoms? 🤣😘

blackcurrantqueen · 26/11/2021 16:24

@feliznavidad2 congratulations on your wriggling bean 💕🥰

blackcurrantqueen · 26/11/2021 16:25

@Sunbird24 pregnant until proven otherwise!!!! Everything crossed for you!! Xx

paintfairy · 26/11/2021 17:08

@Vil10 I'm sure he'll be happy with a line! 🤣 Do a digital tomorrow together? Yes I'd reschedule it for now. Then cancel it next time.
@kaylsd I think Maldives is safe? We went to Mauritius, I can throughly recommend, but I'm not sure if that is or isn't.
@Sunbird24 congratulations on being pupo! 🥳

Franklydear · 26/11/2021 17:10

My gp has a daily how are you survey if you get covid, my nurse is answering them, dh just got a message of have a low threshold to call 999 if you get worst, so he is now considering 111, luckily his stats have improved a little, not great but out of danger zone, of course he’s still working from home, the only thing I don’t blame him for is the guy covering has forgotten to pay the agency workers, you can’t just forget to pay people, specially the ones that’ll be on lower pay

gcat16 · 26/11/2021 17:16

@Vil10 YAAAAYYYYY 🎉🎉🥰 CONGRATULATIONS!! So happy for you! 🥳

@Sunbird24 PUPO 🥳

@feliznavidad2 great news on your scan!

What a good couple of days ladies!!

larrythelizard · 26/11/2021 17:21

Oh @Franklydear that sounds worrying. Hope he continues to improve (and you too of course) 🤞🏼

2020mission · 26/11/2021 17:29

@Vil10 If you're a weekend drinker how will you hide not having a drink tonight anyway 😅 my husband would have known something was going on if I didn't have my Friday night wine! It would be lovely for you to do a digital together in the morning when you wake up and with FMU. I could tell my husband enjoyed waiting for our digital result when we did that... the first one he just got shoved in his face after I saw there was a line 😆 I had been doing them myself by that point as it was always negative so not worth involving him! Oh I really don't miss those days. I feel for you all still going.

Franklydear · 26/11/2021 17:37

@Vil10 I woke him up at 4 am with a pissy stick on his face, that was the end of me testing alone, he rather get up to test with me now 🙄😂

Franklydear · 26/11/2021 17:40

@larrythelizard thanks, ds is well, I am improving, DH only fell ill yesterday, so still on the thick of it, he no longer has a fever so hoping it'll be ok, speaking of fever how is @Juno231?

2020mission · 26/11/2021 17:41

@Franklydear how long has it been since you found out you've got covid? Hopefully you don't get any worse and DH too! Sorry I've been bad for keeping up with this thread

Franklydear · 26/11/2021 17:51

@2020mission ds tested positive Wednesday last week and I did on Sunday, we are both ok and confident in our recovery, DH tested positive yesterday and got unwell quite quickly over night, hopefully remaining out of hospital but the first few days are hard, plus he is insisting on working from home, even being ill, so...

2020mission · 26/11/2021 18:09

Aww @Franklydear what a trooper he is working on! How is DS now? Hopefully you'll all recover soon. At least this has happened before Christmas and hopefully you'll all have more immunity after too... that's the positive you can take from it!

Hopeful110 · 26/11/2021 18:20

@Vil10 OMG 😲 I'm in shock for you! And soooo chuffed!!! Thats such a strong line too! I tried to wait til I told OH but couldn't so told him that afternoon 🤣 so do what feels right for you lovely! 🥰 welcome to the club of no alcohol for the best drinking month of the year 🤣 xx

becarefuloutthere · 26/11/2021 18:24

@Vil10 why did I not log on sooner...YES YOU GORGEOUS GIRL! 🥳 I thought as much when you were saying you didn't have spotting etc. It's always when you come close to investigations/treatment that these things finally happen! I couldn't be happier for someone I've never met 😂 I need to scroll bk n read through the rest of the posts, I just had to congratulate you when I could see all the others. I frantically scrolled bk to find your bfp and there it is!! Yay 😃

becarefuloutthere · 26/11/2021 18:30

@Sunbird24 good luck in the tww! Congrats on being PUPO 🥳
@lucyrp lol your msg from earlier made me laugh 😆 I bloody hate Sambuca so no wonder you spewed!

Minster2012 · 26/11/2021 19:28

Only a quick check in as feel like 💩

@Sunbird24 PUPO!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻when do you think you'll be tempted to test? Did they change anything for this one?

@Franklydear def think you need to start drinking!! This one was conceived during 2 weeks of drinking in the sunshine, raw steak & cocktails 🍹 🙌🏻

@Vil10 completely agree with the "postponing" for Monday. You could always call & say youve got Covid 🤔 I'm Ssoooooooo excited for you telling OH!!

There's more time for other OGs @Manifestingbaby don't worry! @Franklydear & @Juno231 we will have more parties for you ladies xxxx

@Minster2012 😘

Sunbird24 · 26/11/2021 20:35

@Minster2012 no changes, sticking with the progesterone, will see if I have any aspirin left from last time otherwise I’ll go get some more. Most recent MC was because baby had a trisomy 6 abnormality, so not much to be done about that.
Hope you feel better soon!

Vil10 · 26/11/2021 21:22

@Manifestingbaby it is definitely your time next!!

@larrythelizard @2020mission I actually got a text tonight from the clinic saying to reply if I want to cancel or reschedule so I'm going to reschedule it! Good idea girls x

@kaylsd I had the same problem when we were supposed to go to Mexico in June!! You don't realise it's still a problem do you! Thankyou so so much❤️

@paintfairy deffo going to reschedule, I feel like it's too early to cancel!

@gcat16 Thankyou!!xx

@Franklydear oh I hope your DH is okay and continues to improve🤞🏼

@2020mission we rarely drink in the house if we're staying in, unless it's an occasion, I ended up telling OH tonight anyway, I was too excited/nervous for some reason🤣 hahaha shoving a piss stick in his face😂

@Franklydear that's lovely though that you tested together!! Was it you who got your BFP after your smear?

@Hopeful110 Thankyou!! I think I'm still in shock too, it hasn't sunk in yet!! Hahaha it's going to be so hard hiding it, but needs must!!x

@becarefuloutthere Thankyou so much!! I had a feeling when I had no spotting but just thought it was my body playing tricks on me!! I never actually thought I'd get my BFP!!x

@Minster2012 it's a phone app so saying I've got covid won't work unfortunately!! But I don't know what to say??

Well I picked up a clear blue set of 3, 2 normal tests 1 digital, I'll attach the pics of them, and I'll attach how I told OH, he opened it and just had a massive smile on his face, started tearing up saying "is this a joke, is it real, how though, are you being serious", then proceeded to look at the tests smiling saying he couldn't believe it, I obviously burst out crying as soon as he spoke and he gave me a massive hug laughing, I'm crying just typing this🤣
