Welcome all anti-fertile fuckers! This is our clique for those trying longer than 6 cycles and are pretty fed up.

Here are our Fucked Off TTC Commandments

  • Thou shall not arrive one day and post BFP next day
  • Thou shall not give advice to other when TTC for one month only
  • Thou shall not participate in one-up-manship and realise TTC is shit for everyone in different ways
  • Thou shall allow posters to be fucked off with the world and everything in it at regular points in the month
  • Thou shall not be offended by strong language
  • Thou shall not tell everyone to eat yams
  • Thou shall accept being called a muppet for testing at 7dpo at 9pm at night

Our spreadsheet which includes what supplements (and potatoes) we are trying in our journey to motherhood.

Definitely! I might walk to the local shop to get my steps up also Wink If I happen to purchase chocolate whilst there then so be it

Oh @mrsjones17 that is totally crap!
Wine and chocolate I agree.

I know how you feel- me and OH have younger siblings and it does feel like a race sometimes.

Fucking accidents! 😡

justmeonly · 23/10/2017 17:36

All this holiday talk is getting me thinking. Maybe it's time to book a skiing trip. OH went without me this year (I couldn't go due to work) so I am well overdue a trip!

Welcome to all the newbies on this thread. Great bunch of women here.

Congrats summer! So happy to see a second bfp!

Sorry for those who have AF or feel it coming Sad

I’m 5dpo and already bored of the TWW.
I’ve been working from home today so have eaten everything in the house:
Pain au chocolate
Bowl of wheetos
Crusty tiger roll
2 brownies from the batch dh made last night
2 cans coke
Homemade spicy butternut squash soup with crusty cheese bread roll
Another brownie
Approx 27493928383 cups of tea
A whole box of those mikado chocolate sticks

So yeah...eat the crap, book the holidays and drink the wine!

Fuck this life on hold bollocks.
And I’m seeing all my school friends this weekend and I can’t fucking wait!

Steaksauce · 23/10/2017 17:40

Oh and all these people having “accidents” can fuck the fuck off.

Steaksauce · 23/10/2017 17:43

Also. Found this today which I thought was pretty apt for this thread.

Thou shall not tell everyone to eat Yams
Justwaitingforaline · 23/10/2017 17:47

steak I like that, I like that a lot. The only thing worse than people who go on about getting accidentally pregnant are the ones who then brag about how fertile they are or how it was ‘meant to be’/fate

Justwaitingforaline · 23/10/2017 17:50

You’ve set me off now, Steak...

@Justwaitingforaline GrinGrin they’re great!
Dh has just shouted from the other room to ask what I’m giggling at.

juneybean · 23/10/2017 17:53

My personal favourite is "it only took us one month" -stab-

LovePinaColada · 23/10/2017 17:56

Love that @Steaksauce! Very thread appropiate!

All this chocolate talk is making me hungry... I wonder if I can send OH out on a chocolate run?!

I am 5dpo & at that annoying stage when EVERY twinge, pain & sniffle I am convincing myself I am pregnant! Arghhh!

LimpLettice · 23/10/2017 18:07

Hahahahahaha love em. Might start them as rotating screen savers at work 😂

Justwaitingforaline · 23/10/2017 18:10

There’s whole world of painfully relevant and hilarious e cards out there!

I think every month I’m goinf to do one thing which is SO not pregnant lady appropriate, just to try and find some joy. This month, I’m going to go for a very, very rare steak dinner and drink a lot of red wine.

juneybean · 23/10/2017 18:31

So I just poas and it's so negative it could be a member of our clique.

I'd love just a hint of a line :(

OP posts:
Steaksauce · 23/10/2017 18:38

How many dpo are you?

juneybean · 23/10/2017 18:46

Mamabooksbabynumber2 · 23/10/2017 18:47

Congrats summer! This is excellent news. 2 bfp is a couple of days o this thread.
mrsjones I would be totally pissed too!

Next mo th is going to be a month of action. I'm going to go to the GP and buy one of those fancy ov stick kits.

I'm on holiday with family sharing a room with dc so no dtd. We std 5 days in a row leading up and after ov I believe but today I had more ewcm. So now confused.

Mrsjones17 · 23/10/2017 18:48

@steak those are hilarious!!

@juney - shit but I'm making a new rule- thou shall be called a tool to poas with with anything other than fmu. Try again tomorrow hun. Although i Did think your post was funny it could be part of our clique!

LovePinaColada · 23/10/2017 18:49

Noooo @juneybean! Slapped wrists for POAS at this time of night - I am sure this is in our rules somewhere!

Try again with FMU tomorrow. 🤞

LovePinaColada · 23/10/2017 18:50

Oh and big congrats @Summer1986! Dare I say it but this thread is starting to look a little more positive - fingers crossed it can throw itself around a little!

Steaksauce · 23/10/2017 18:51

That’s shit @juneybean this whiter than white sticks are the worst. But you’re not out til af so try again in the morning.

Steaksauce · 23/10/2017 18:55

Mrsjones17 · 23/10/2017 19:08
