Wow that last bus was an amazing bumper BFP filled bus where we were all crying and screaming for joy as lots of our lovely passengers got their BFPs…🙌🏻we are having an ADVENT CALENDAR of a BFP each day! 🥰❤️

There’s still some ppl lingering on this bus so that’s it, I’m calling time, all the rest of you are due off this bus with your 2 lines please 🤞🏻

This is the bus where we’ve got lots of things going on, bumps, rainbows 🌈, ivf, and now lots more miracle BFPs before ivf! Maybe we should issue passengers with an ivf referral on your way in too to help spur those eggs & sperm into action!

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.

@larrythelizard congratulations sweetheart!!!!! The Christmas advent continues, hoping for a sticky baby for you 🥺🤞🏻❤️

Franklydear · 09/12/2021 21:22

I can’t get over it, @Juno231 this pregnancy!🥰 where’s @Vil10? You promise to not leave me, in my hour of need, bored out of my brains,,,if I had any ideas, dh doesn’t, he’s planning some Xmas shopping on the weekend, me: oh, where we going? him : we?

Juno231 · 09/12/2021 21:27

@Franklydear vil is living her best life in Edinburgh!

@Minster2012 ah no toilette as in the process of dressing or grooming oneself - I meant brushing my teeth, getting into PJ's, doing my skincare stuff. HOWEVER, yes I'm definitely having digestive issues lol today was three rounds of constipated poops including some bleeding plus one upside down volcano 😆. Speaking of blood, my left nostril keeps bleeding a bit every time I sneeze or blow my nose. Dry mucous membranes I guess!

Franklydear · 09/12/2021 21:29

Oh yes, I forgot,
Love this one www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/4422266-My-cat-is-an-arsehole

Juno231 · 09/12/2021 21:29

@Franklydear I can't get over it either! What a random thing to happen 😅. Currently counting down the days until Monday where I'll be out of CP territory 🤞

Minster2012 · 09/12/2021 21:33

Ahhhh ok @Juno231 sounds like you have a proper ladies hood skin regime! I have been saying for years I should do that but then still completely ignored it

Yes she's having a great time by the looks of it @Franklydear ooooo he's plotting, my DH came home earlier from his trip away & brought me an early anniversary present (this weekend) he bought me some new lovely fluffy (suitable for Scotland so must be warm!) slippers! Yeyyyy

Right who's next on the advent?

OP posts:
Juno231 · 09/12/2021 21:37

@Minster2012 I find proper skincare routines overwhelming tbh! I just slap some stuff on as I keep feeling my skin is looking thinner, drier and wrinklier 😁. Shame I love the sun.

Sunbird24 · 09/12/2021 21:45

@Juno231 that’s freaky, my left nostril had been bleeding tonight too 🤭

Franklydear · 09/12/2021 21:47

@Minster2012 I think the only thing he’s plotting is how to chain me to the sofa.... but you might be right, we had a rotten year, but me quite a lot as I’ve never had to be home so much

larrythelizard · 09/12/2021 21:48

I have signed up to a thing called skin+me where I uploaded pics and they prescribed me skin cream. £20 a month but the first month was free. Probably have a discount code somewhere if anyone wants it @Minster2012 @Juno231.

I'm enjoying my botoxed face but top-up (hopefullly) won't be allowed...! I also love the sun @Juno231 which is why I look haggard at 45 🤣

Haha @Franklydear can you imagine if you were talking about the other Chris Evans. Eww!

Thanks @kaylsd such a head fuck!

Franklydear · 09/12/2021 21:52

@larrythelizard that would be a very different movie.... eeeew indeed, I’ll keep the American one thanks

larrythelizard · 09/12/2021 21:58

Ahem I'm 35 not 45 @Juno231. Doh!

Franklydear · 09/12/2021 22:15

@larrythelizard for a moment I thought I found another crazy nutter that left it too late

Juno231 · 10/12/2021 06:20

Yuck that's two nights in a row I've dreamt I had an MC. Each time I've woken up and carried on believing it was reality for a bit until I realise it was just a dream. What an annoying brain!

larrythelizard · 10/12/2021 06:42

That's horrible @Juno231, it's so stressful isn't it?!

I retested this morning and was a proper squinter. Have been to Tesco on the way to the gym in the hope of some FRERs but none so have some early CB digis and will see what they say later. But ergh. Think I should probably just try and forget about it and test again on Sunday as that would be 14dpo but not sure I have such control over my brain!

larrythelizard · 10/12/2021 06:47

Oh @Franklydear 😘 any blood results back yet?

bez91 · 10/12/2021 07:33

@Juno231 Ive had nosebleeds in every pregnancy so it's quite normal (I think) the dreams wow yes not nice, it's your hormones in overdrive. They're so vivid and real, did I share on this thread that I had recently about me giving birth to a silver shield beetle (instead of a baby) 😆 kept loosing it round the house and also had to BF it. Some I've had have been very messed up!

Minster2012 · 10/12/2021 07:44

I had done bleeding when I blew my nose too @Sunbird24 & @Juno231 I think it's your blood vessels widening maybe & extra blood? Your skin may become "more thirsty" now

@Franklydear I've got faith in your DH, he's a really good un

You aren't 45 are you @larrythelizard??? I would love the skin thing HOWEVER I'm one of those ppl who have a fair few creams that I started then stopped laying around at home & I need to sort that (also watching the sort your life out programme this morning!) ahhhh 35. That makes more sense. What brand was the squinter & some ppl do show better on later day tests, that one yesterday was great so im hoping it's a much less sensitive one

So we've agreed that the ginger Chris evans shouldn't be in a film, and def not naked 😂I need to find the Xmas film that's filmed at our friends farm, they say it's crap but aren't all Xmas films,? It's got Liz Hurley, john Cleese in it I think, some big names

@bez91 a beetle?! What???

OP posts:
Juno231 · 10/12/2021 07:52

@larrythelizard I died when you said 45 😆. Fingers crossed that's just a shit cheapie - I hope the CB will give you a clearer line!

@bez91 erm... Thats an oddly specific beetle?? And lol at breastfeeding it 🤣

@Minster2012 with nose I think it's also because the hormones dry out your mucous membranes so makes them fragile. I'm the same with creams all over the house. I have an acid face peel I was using weekly for the past month or so but don't think I can use it when pregnant so there's that stuff to consider now too.

Franklydear · 10/12/2021 07:57

@larrythelizard no, nothing but I haven’t chase that yet, I’m with the doctor on covid recovery, my oxygen has gone down again to 96-97, I am considering calling again
@Juno231 anxiety is horrible, hope you feel more reassured soon
@Minster2012 nobody need to see that Chris naked, the other one is gorgeous but doesn’t have any morals for a Irish/Italian catholic boy

Franklydear · 10/12/2021 07:59

Ladies you are making me feel ancient, 44 and a bit here
@bez91 where on earth you got that from? been watching too many David Attenborough documentaries ?

larrythelizard · 10/12/2021 08:11

Nope another FRER this morning. Guess it's a wait and see and hope for the best.

@Franklydear definitely call again if you're worried - not worth messing around with.

@bez91 that is quite some dream!!

Vil10 · 10/12/2021 08:37
