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.

The line yesterday got more darker so I do think more it was an evaporated line, I still feel very nauseous literally after everything I eat and for the majority of the day. I have got tender breasts today though which is normally a sign AF is coming, it would be mega early though as wouldn't normally get that until 4 days before which would be 9th this month 🤷🏻‍♀️

McOrange · 06/12/2021 09:27

[quote Juno231]@McOrange you're probably not quite 19dpo based on your line - sounds like you ovulated late after your MC!

@JuniperAndTonic omg don't, that's why I could never have mine done professionally - too high risk 😆[/quote]
Would you expect a stronger line at this stage then? I didn’t take the test with first morning urine if that makes any difference. I definitely ovulated on that day as I used OPKs

Oh god, I’m a bit nervous now, as the other month my line got more and more faint until there was nothing and then I miscarried the next day.

JuniperAndTonic · 06/12/2021 09:28

@Juno231 I don’t think I could sit still enough, I think I’d end up with none left 😂

Juno231 · 06/12/2021 09:41

@McOrange you could still have ovulated later if you stopped testing with opks. What you caught could have been a surge without successful ovulation followed by another attempt some days later. But yes, if truly 19dpo I'm afraid I'd expect a blazing line. Honestly though I think the odds are you ovulated later than you think!

@LoveQ sore boobs are equally a BFP sign so I have my fingers crossed for you

Vil10 · 06/12/2021 09:43

@DKDK123 that's what OH said, they're definitely missing a trick with that one aren't they!

@Juno231 @Minster2012 ooo I might jump over and have a look soon!!

@Minster2012 yeah that's our thought process, they don't cry or bark or anything, they'll happily sleep for a couple of hours!

@LoveQ hope all those are good signs🤞🏼

@McOrange congratulations!! I also think you must've ovulated earlier x

Adding in on the eyebrow chat, I too get my brows waxed and tinted and fill them in when I wear makeup, I have to get my brows waxed and tinted every 3 weeks or I just think they look awful and messy!

McOrange · 06/12/2021 09:47

Ok thanks. We only had sex around the time I thought we ovulated and then DH was away with work so if I ovulated late, there would be no chance of conception then as no sperm hanging around.

Quite upset now. Thanks anyway ladies, I guess this one is going the same way as the previous one

@Juno231 🤣 maybe I suppose if people really pay attention. But there must be loads of people that are a mix? And anyone that knows you would unlikely be reading MN just to pass time. Certainly not this bus anyhow. 🤭 That's interesting though! So now I'm confused why you ever lived in Sweden? 🤣

dmb91 · 06/12/2021 10:45

Taking my seat.. still nothing to report.
22.5 weeks since implant removal and still no AF. Drs will start doing things once it's been six months so not too much longer to wait.

larrythelizard · 06/12/2021 10:51

I wouldn't be upset @McOrange if it's a crappier test and not FMU that might explain it. Have you got any FRERs in?

Thanks for the reassurance all on the short LP. I guess keep banging and hope for the best 😉

I've bought some Coq-10 to start from Jan (officially not starting trying again until late March so gives 3 months on supplements for us both - DH will be back on the tomatoes!) and need to lose some weight.

JuniperAndTonic · 06/12/2021 11:03

@McOrange I agree with the above (although no expert, just extensive research!) - get a better test and try with first morning urine tomorrow, don’t lose hope!! 💐 💕

Juno231 · 06/12/2021 11:16

@McOrange try a FRER! Current test does look like it would be less sensitive like I said 🤞

@paintfairy ah well my mum's side of the family fled communist Poland in the 70s and ended up in Sweden. Then dad is half Danish and that + Sweden is the same shit really 😆. So my parents met in Sweden!

McOrange · 06/12/2021 12:02

Ok just did one. This is a good sign right…?

@larrythelizard keep banging and hope for the best is the best mantra. I think 3 months is a good timeframe to get yourselves closer to where you want to be 🙌🏼

@Juno231 fab, I love hearing stories like that - makes you more interesting for sure! I'm very bland that way out 😆

@McOrange yes that's a dye stealer!

Juno231 · 06/12/2021 12:11

@McOrange YEEEEEES it's a dye stealer - spot on for 19dpo! What was the other brand you used so we know to avoid it like the plague 😂

Kirky658 · 06/12/2021 12:29

Just stealing a lil seat ❤️👍

larrythelizard · 06/12/2021 12:29

Now that is a dye stealer @McOrange! Fantastic!!

Kirky658 · 06/12/2021 12:32

@mcorange also congrats!!!!

Minster2012 · 06/12/2021 12:47

Can your quarter Chinese self cook the most amazing Chinese food @Juno231? My Chinese friend is suchhhhhhhh an amazing cook I could eat it everyday, or how are you on the meatballs 😜Isn't maths specifically MEANT to be your forte?!

@Hann91 bloody witch always messes around when you actually want her here, our bodies are f*ckboys that what we say! But yay to getting festive

So do you wear 2 wigs at once sometimes @becarefuloutthere

I've also wanted to try micro blading or tattooing on @larrythelizard but def not brave enough 😬did you get any handy tips on LP lengthening in your bedtime reading? I started taking coq10 last jan & got BFP mid April, & when my friend asked me about whether we were still trying as my cycles were all over & I answered "well I always have some sperm inside me hanging around that's no more than 2 days old so yep!"

Hey @McOrange welcome back and would you look at those!! Perfect lines! Let's hope they are super sticky this time 🤞🏻 I think those lines look great especially for a non FMU so please try not to worry

@Vil10 they'll be fine 🐶

@LoveQ are you going to do a hold and test later?! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

@JuniperAndTonic ooo give yourself a treat to take your mind off it definitely, and look there's a fab example from @McOrange of a great BFP after miscarriage to give you hope

@Minster2012 yes I'm going to try not to pee for the rest of my shift now, pick up and test and test as soon as I'm home 😬 I'm nervous I have just imagined it all, that clear blue one has threw me, it was a proper blue thin line after the picture I posted on here so I just don't know 🤷🏻‍♀️

McOrange · 06/12/2021 13:38

Ok thanks. What a rollercoaster that has been!

Wishing you all well on the ongoing bus Flowers

Juno231 · 06/12/2021 13:45

@McOrange come join us on the bfp bus? It's called minsters sidecar, you'll find it in the pregnancy thread

becarefuloutthere · 06/12/2021 13:46

@Juno231 haha two at once 😂 now that's some bouffant hair do 😆 just the one for me please 😎
@paintfairy ooh she sounds like such an enigma!!
@McOrange congratulations 🎉 hope for a sticky bean for you!
@Vil10 your eyebrows always look great! On fleek, if that's even still a saying 😂
@Minster2012 lol I read the two wigs msg first and was so confused until I scrolled bk n saw Juno's msg 😅 and nope, just the one for me! No Tanzanian routes as far as I'm aware. My family originate in Barbados, I'm guessing they go as far bk as Africa somewhere down the line!
Nice aga and stockings 👏🏾

InkyPaper · 06/12/2021 15:24

@McOrange congratulations! 🎉

So, on the bright side of today the clinic have received DHs results. But. The doctor is now off sick and it could be a couple of weeks before she's back in and she's the only one who can sign off the treatment plan. In my head I'm just screaming as now it looks like nothing will happen in January after all if the treatment plan doesn't get signed off in time (unless my body decides to play ball and have a period in December). It's just one thing after another 😂🤦
