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

[Minster2012]

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.

Bumps & babies who want to keep track of us from our other buses 👀

😭😭😭😭 Happy tears! @paintfairy congratulations!!!! OMG at last!!!! 😁😁😁

@Franklydear pleased you are all ok (ish) do you know when you get the bloods back?

Little tear here too @paintfairy!!! That is a wonderful line!!!

@paintfairy yessssss! Test again tomorrow, so dh can believe it
@Minster2012 yes, calpol and cough syrup on the go, but okish,
bloods must have been enough of it as I haven’t heard back, so results by next Monday or I should call to ask

@paintfairy yessssss!! Amazing news! So happy for you, congratulations🥳🥳❤️❤️ also this proves that rhr isn't accurate for a BFP???

If he squints DH might just see it @paintfairy 😂😂😂we are all tearing up here!

@Franklydear next week then

Actually @Vil10 I think it is! I kept waiting for it to drop.....

@Vil10 I was gonna say - rhr kept being high!

@xoJellyBean I just had a trial embryo transfer to make sure my passage was clear for the big day 😬

@paintfairy still crying happy tears here 😁 as for whether this was the same clinic as where I'll have IVF - yes and no lol. This is where they'll do egg collection but not where I'll have the actual embryo transfer. I did get there yesterday and thought shit, what if the trial was meant to be at kings as well? Because it makes no sense to do a trial where I won't be doing the actual thing right?😅

@Bea14 I think there's been so many procedures that they're just fairly routine now.

@Minster2012 I don't think I will be next, something is bound to go wrong 🙈

@paintfairy omg!! Woohoo! Massive congratulations 💐🎉☺️

@Juno231 no negative thinking allowed, girl, you know better

@paintfairy yes girl so happy for you!!! The biggest congratulations on your BFP hope the next 9 month are happy and healthy for you🥺✨✨✨✨

@Vil10 if it helps, my RHR didn't rise at all when I got my BFP. It only started rising (and we're talking by around 4-5 bpm max) when I moved into the third trimester. Definitely not one to worry about too much!

Lol @paintfairy your DH is very by the book 🤣

Yay!! So happy for you @paintfairy

Definitely you next @juno231

@Juno231 we are having none of that thank you

Awh lovely news @paintfairy congratulations.

@paintfairy I knew it I knew it!! All the signs were pointing in the right direction! 🥰 over the moon for you! I can't tell you 😍 congratulations 👏🏾

@paintfairy!!!! Congratulations!! That's wonderful news!! 🎉🎉🎉 I'm so happy for you! 🎉🎉🎉

My SiL is in a stable but critical condition now, so we're all hoping and praying she's through the worst of it, although we still don't know what the long term effects will be (there's still a chance she may never wake up). Someone asked what was wrong and it was covid. She didn't want to get vaccinated because of the baby. If you haven't been vaccinated, please, please, please consider it. This disease is vicious and cruel. She was healthy and supposed to be spending her time bonding with her new baby, not hooked up to machines and a vent in ICU.

@InkyPaper that’s so hard, hopefully she’ll be over the worst of it and recovers to have all the time with her baby, for pregnant women it’s been so hard to know what to do, the advice is confusing, praying for her quick recovery

Oh @InkyPaper the poor woman! That's awful. It must be a hard decision to make re vaccination when pregnant but this isn't the first horror story I've heard. Women are so vulnerable giving birth. Love to you all.

@InkyPaper your poor SIL, that's awful. Did she catch covid while pregnant? I am still unvaccinated but will hopefully be getting my first does in two weeks time. Stories like this have most definitely changed my mind! Not to mention I will lose my job come April if I don't.

That's just horrendous @InkyPaper - I think the stress the body is under in the third trimester is a lot and then Covid on top is a scary prospect. At least the medical teams know better how to treat it now. Will keep my fingers crossed for her.

A couple of friends of mine didn't get vaccinated whilst pregnant because a midwife told them not to back in March time 🤯🤯🤯 - thankfully they've all had their babies now and have vaccinations booked.

Im off to London again today for a customer event this evening - I don't think I've been to a customer networking event since early 2019 so hopefully I can still remember how to do it!
