🎄Is your turkey 🦃moister than an oyster?💦TTC bus 51

[Minster2012]

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.

I had a sneaky peak at the sidecar, I love seen the scan pics but for the rest I agree that it must be kept separate, also know we were done with this but you know, having had a go, I now think it won’t work

@Franklydear sounds sensible re work to me!
So are you thinking you won't ttc anymore?

@becarefuloutthere I have definitely taken a step back, we are not preventing, but very little doing on the sense of tracking, we will review again in March, I am 44 at some point will have to stop, but who knows, maybe the just relax approach will work

@Franklydear glad you are feeling better enough to be back at work, though what a shame it is still the same shit show!!! 💕

@InkyPaper loving your updates. Hope you are feeling okay!! So exciting about the egg collection etc !!

I am 37 weeks today and have a section date booked, so there will soon be a new bus baby! 💗

@Franklydear makes sense and a sensible approach to it I think. Good luck!
@blackcurrantqueen how exciting mate!! 😃

Bus baby bus baby bus baby @blackcurrantqueen 🥰🥰🥰

@dmb91 that's good news on a scan, something to get things moving forwards at least, hope it's soon and you are doing so well with the weight loss

Good weight loss @dmb91 and good that the Dr is going to do something.

Preach @Franklydear deffo do the right thing for you.

Whooop new baby @blackcurrantqueen!

@Juno231 your scan is so pretty! Glad everything went well which is the main thing but gosh that's a cute little picture 😍

Eeeeee new bus baby soon! So exciting @blackcurrantqueen! Feels like only yesterday you were telling us about your BFP 😊 I am celebrating my first negative LFT today after getting covid on Christmas Day (worst gift ever). I mean, we still can't leave until we both get a second one tomorrow but it's a step in the right direction

@dmb91 hurray for a scan! Doctors fixation on weight as the root of all evil is very frustrating - even if you're under the 30 BMI limit they bring it up at every appointment if you're still over 25. Or maybe it's just me that's had that?!

@Juno231 glad the scan went well!

@becarefuloutthere glad your sister's scan went well 😊

@paintfairy I start the injections on CD2 so I have to call on CD1 to arrange scans according to my treatment plan

@Franklydear I mean I really hope I don't end up in manger but I'm just hoping every thing falls into place in time for summer🤞🏼also I'm so glad you've extended TTC to March!! How do you feel about it??

@BellatrixK welcome!! Im so sorry for your early losses! I really hope this bus brings you some baby dust!! Oh your pointer is gorgeous! I have an ex working springer and even though he's full springer, he has so many characterises of a pointer with the paw point, he's also the same colourings as yours!

@user1019273703 welcome!! Hope it's a short ride for you! My OH didn't have low sperm count but he did have a morphology of 1% which is obviously not good at all, he ate Brazil nuts and walnuts, a couple of each a night and cut out protein powder completely, he used to have about 4 scoops of it a day overall and went down to nothing just used eggs for extra protein instead, after almost 2 years TTC I got my BFP in october, a couple of months after we got OH's SA results, I know other woman's OH's on here used vitamins and supplements though too, hopefully they can advise which ones are best!

@dmb91 amazing progress on the weight loss!! Well done!!

Just a quick update from me, I didn't want to update earlier in case it was insensitive or people didn't want to know, but I had an early scan at 7+5 on the 23rd December and everything looked good, measuring bang on what I thought, with a strong heartbeat, not felt awful and not been sick but had lots of retching and nausea and stingy nipples, got another scan on Friday when I'll be 9+6 then my booking in appointment on Monday, I won't attach scan pics unless people do want to see them, but I still think about you lot all the time, I can't wait to come on here and see someone has their BFP and hopefully it'll start off a roll of BFPS🤞🏼🤞🏼

@Vil10 what's wrong with a manger, I hear there's great ones in Nazareth, just outside Jerusalem, 🤣 ttcing? I don't know, I just don't believe it'll happen, so what difference does it make? But saying that, just happened that we covered ewcm pretty well, so.... I like seeing scan pictures, specially from the ladies that had to wait so long for them

@Franklydear you're not alone, I'm quickly running out of energy for it all. There's only so long you can try really isn't there before you just need to get on with life.

@Vil10 congrats on the scan. Glad to hear all is well x

Catching up ladies ...

@InkyPaper you are nearly there for freedom then, btw did SIL get home for Xmas? How are you with injections???

I can feel a song coming on 🎶 "@Vil10 in a manger no room for a crib 😂" let's def hope not. Mind you, I hear but if we get planning we'd like to start our building works when baby due so we could be in the same position 🤪

I have some clear blue digital advanced sticks left if you are interested @Franklydear @Manifestingbaby, they expired in fab 21 but worked for me in September but I accept no responsibility for a fanny fire if they spontaneously combust upon weeing on you ladies get first refusal

Thanks @Minster2012 but I don't really bother with opks only cheapies occasionally, don't have the stick thing.

Thank you @Minster2012 but still chilling if anybody else wants them, I can confirm they didn't explode on me, and the thingy read them fine

@Minster2012 yup! Midnight tomorrow freedom awaits! SIL was moved out of the ICU but she won't be home for a long time. I'm actually OK with injections. DH is really keen to do them for me, so we'll see how that goes 😂

Funny that @InkyPaper my DH really relished that too 🤔he still sometimes does my blood thinning injection now so I can blame someone else for the horrible stinging pain & make him feel bad for giving me a bruise (he's not twigged yet so it's ok if I feel angry I can get him to do it). That's a positive move for SIL then, I often think about it

@Franklydear @Manifestingbaby
no problem just wanted to check

I'm not sure how many I have but do have a holder for it too

Also need to go through my supplements. 🤪

All Christmas down here just need DH to try take the Xmas tree down the driveway to put it out for the bin men, I've challenged them with that task after tea 🎄over and out

Xmas is not over until tomorrow, decorations down at the weekend

@InkyPaper I kept meaning to ask how SIL was. That isn't good then- she's now been in ages, hasn't she? God.
And I wouldn't have let DH bloody inject me. Jesus. 😂 i was doing 3 though a night. And my tip is to use a small ice pack before and after. Helps loads.

@Minster2012 yes sorry I am still here 👋🏻

I am currently CD 24, still having my regular signs of incoming AF will know for sure on Sunday.

Thank you all for your thoughts 💗

.... and I did better than last month BUT I caved and poas ( a boots digital one ) and it was a big clear BFN so I'm almost certain it's not happened this month x

@LoveQ boo - what dpo do you think you might be?

@Franklydear I'm with you - Christmas is here until the three wise men arrive! Will you be making roscon de Reyes?

@Juno231 no, my boy doesn’t like it, but we got turron, mazapan and polvorones, will you? this year we also gave him the presents early, normally he founds them in the morning, which makes a quite funny morning to get ready for school, with the promise of play after school, I often wonder what other teacher thought he was on about

Well the wise men should have arranged to come on a more convenient day for me then @Juno231 @Franklydear. Men eh?! Never come when you need them 😂🤪😜

@LoveQ a digital is surely less sensitive than other tests? I always usually leave those til after AF due so still hoping
