@Katao hopefully by tomorrow, but it could be up to 6 days, we all have to isolate until them, and dh would definitely like to go to work on Monday and ds to school, I think I might be ok to pot around work on Monday but will see
@Vil10 not the kind of drama I hope for every month, but it definitely works, hardly any symptom spotting... 😳🤣

KateColx · 14/11/2020 20:36

@Sausage1990 yeah it's been so drawn out for you bless you, just hope you start to feel better soon. Like someone else said, 2 steps forward and 1 back is still really good progress ☺️☺️ you'll definitely get there! Give yourself time and be kind to yourself ☺️ x

@notyetamumbuttrying he definitely does sound like a gooden! I'm okay thanks lovely, enjoying the chilled weekend today! And I'm one of those people who have put their Christmas decorations up already 😂😍 so I've spent a lot of my day doing that. X

@Kirky658 like the other girls have said it's definitely a normal feeling and I think we've all been there. My anxiety was also a bit of a nightmare during TTC, felt like I'd convinced myself it wouldn't happen for us but for no reason whatsoever 🤷🏼‍♀️ its such a rollercoaster! x

@Newbie0818 definitely doesn't count you out! We only DTD once on the Tuesday and I was due to ovulate on the Thursday / Friday and that got our BFP x

@Runnergirl1 I had my booking in apt around 8 weeks and got my 12 week scan on Thursday. Hope these next few weeks go quickly for you ☺️ x

@Minster2012 okay so I bought a glass one a little while ago thinking it was a normal size, but LOOK at the size of it 😂😩 I had to take the photo so OH could see it when it was delivered 😂 so yeah, defo watch out for size. We actually use our beads more than the plug, I think there's more pleasure in those! We have the ones which go up in size order, they were just from lovehoney x

Vil10 · 14/11/2020 20:57

@Chlo2701 oh god tell me about it!! One of my close friends is due next month, another friend js 14 weeks, everyone around me is falling pregnant so easily, when's it our turn!! Ohhh what a lovely Christmas present that would be!! Noo rant away girl, I don't mind, I'm negative 97% of the time when talking about TTC😂

@Franklydear yeah it maybe could've been something slightly more positive😂

Franklydear · 14/11/2020 21:04

@Vil10 baah, I am hoping I get the negative text tomorrow, and we Chuck it off to one of those things, we wouldn’t have gone anywhere anyway, the weather is awful, then it’s only too days to wait for the next due date....

Kirky658 · 14/11/2020 21:38

So as promised whoever it was that asked earlier (apologies memory like a sieve) - date night pics! Garlic and mushroom bruschetta starter, homemade spag and meatballs and my homemade choc orange mousse! Successful date night, we had a good laugh and spent some much needed quality time together ending in us having a GREAT sex 😍 we both got dressed up and everything too it was so lovely.

Chatted to DH about him 'seducing me' and initiating sex rather than me, he went 'sorry I'm less pierce brosnan more rowan Atkinson' and it just got me laughing so hard in the end it didn't matter!!! Feeling so lucky. Whatever happens this week AF or not, tonight was fab.

@Kirky658 that looks fantastic!
Right, I am off to bed, fingers crossed you don’t wake up to a whole page of me, sorry @Juno231, I am filling the thread quicker than normal...

Juno231 · 14/11/2020 22:06

@Kirky658 you're making me hungry with those pics! Do you have the recipe for the cho orange mousse? Choc orange is my favourite!

@KateColx okay okay, with the beads. Do you not end up with poop on them?!

OP posts:
Minster2012 · 14/11/2020 22:08

Oooo I'm vaguely keeping up to date @Kirky658 it was me asking about the meal, that looks great!

@KateColx OMG I literally spat my food out then! Jesus that is literally the size of your fist...I showed it to DH & he was like "ouch", I don't think Knows I'm being serious when one turns up in the post 😂

Kirky658 · 14/11/2020 22:12

@juno231 I have to say it was sooooo good!!! The mousse recipe is from Jane's Patisserie 😁

@minster2012 I thought it was you but didn't want to tag in case it wasn't you 😂

Minster2012 · 14/11/2020 22:13

It looks amazing @Kirky658, but how many desserts did you do?! Can you send the spares out...

AHobbyaweek · 14/11/2020 22:15

Hope you don't mind me crashing the party. I'm due AF tomorrow according to the natural cycles app and so far testing negative. I'm really impatient and have already tested although holding out hope for a BFP after AF is due.

I did see the butt plug and decided here are my people.

Runnergirl1 · 14/11/2020 22:16

@KateColx good luck with that on Thursday. I hope they do too I’m sick of feeling myself up to check boobs are still sore but noticed tonight I am soooooooo thirsty all the time at the minute - increase blood apparently x

Kirky658 · 14/11/2020 22:23

@minster2012 just the 8 😂 recipe for 8 mousses so I thought well that's dessert for the next 4 days!!! Lol x

Minster2012 · 14/11/2020 22:50

Ha ha @Kirky658 that's my attitude 😂🤣they look gorgeous. Though I have to say I'm not a big fan of chocolate orange...sorry Terry 😉

@AHobbyaweek hello! Welcome to the butt plug party! That's basically my fault..have a look down thread & you'll see the clit tickler a few of our members now have 😂but I'm contemplating buying a wooden (specifically for our wooden wedding anniversary) hence the questions... but we are very much a "sex & fun thread" with a side portion of TTC for a lot of us! When did you test?

AHobbyaweek · 14/11/2020 22:53

Tested this morning and two days ago.
I do have some butt plugs too but find the silicone ones better. Best investment was the Analyse me spray which tingles and helps things slip in Wink
I will look at the clit sucker too!

KateColx · 14/11/2020 22:56

@Juno231 hahah this has always been a concern but no, never had any poo issues luckily 😅

@Minster2012 a little bigger than I'd planned 😂😂😂 when I opened it I was like 😳 safe to say it's never been used! Haha I think it's a worthwhile investment, just not one that could also act as a door stop x

@Runnergirl1 my symptoms have really come and gone over the past couple of weeks but I'm same as you, always like hmm do I feel okay? 🤔 have you had any nausea at all? Mines been pretty constant but has got better recently but it's put me off so many foods and even drinks! X

Minster2012 · 14/11/2020 23:14

@AHobbyaweek hmmm are you usually regular? Tbh we say our bodies are fuck boys so if testing negative then it could be a random shit long cycle?? We have a few of us on here with shitty weird cycles. It fucks us over! We have a number of other sex toys & now I'm
Intrigued by the Analyse me...that's my research tomorrow 😂🤣I think as a thread we've kept many a sex shop open since may! Thing is I wanted something wooden for our wooden wedding anniversary...but getting distracted & ive already asked for a new dildo for Xmas from DH 😂☺️

Ok a TTC thought...I've got my new letters through for my rearranged CT/ultrasound neck & MRI & photographs of moles/skin I have managed to get ALL on Tuesday in a long day from6.20am to about 4pm 🙄but anyway....they all check on the forms "is there any chance you could be pregnant?" I guess I might have to test before then even if it's pointless 😫

AHobbyaweek · 14/11/2020 23:18

@Minster2012 I have only been off the implant and "TTC" for 5 full months (this being 6th cycle) so it is not too regular. I agree it is trying to fuck with me.
That makes sense for the wooden year.
I suppose one long day of appointments is better than a week of one a day maybe?

Chlo2701 · 14/11/2020 23:23

@Sausage1990 I know you were all talking about this on Thursday but I've only got up to reading that far🙈 hence why when this posts I'm fully aware we're on Saturday night! I'm just trying to catch up now, I'm so behind! But I'm just reading your comment about your parents starting to foster. I wish them all the best! My mum & stepdad have been fostering for just over 20yrs now & ive been a bug part of their journey as I lived with them while they fidgeted. They have fostered over 100 children. I can't put into words the emotions we as a family have experience over the years due to fostering. It's one big rollercoaster put it that way!
It's soooo nice though when they get a random knock at the door & it's a child they fostered years ago that wants to come back & thank them for what they did! It's very surreal, as one minute they're a child then the next they're knocking at your door as an adult, coming in for a cup of tea, reminiscing about years ago🙈 heartbreaking & heartwarming at the same time.
Growing up with parents that were foster carers, i myself could never do it as I've seen & experienced every emotion that it involves 💕💔 but I wish your parents all the best in their journey with fostering 💞

Minster2012 · 14/11/2020 23:24

@AHobbyaweek yes one long day is my doing...I originally got 5 separate appointments through for scans & mole check in one week all at Leeds which is 1.5hrs away from me...& I'm high risk so I was like "what the fuck?!", 2 hours of admin later I've got them all on one day but a long one!

Do you track other things? I'm a weird one here doing IVF but were TTC in between in lockdown after missed miscarriage so can't leave these ladies as the IVF threads are soooo boring! We keep each other going 😂❤️

Minster2012 · 14/11/2020 23:26

@Chlo2701 it was me about the fostering! As we weren't allowed to adopt die to my cancer...so horrible. That's amazing of your mum & stepdad. I saw it on a Facebook group I'm on & it choked me up, a couple retiring after 110 children. So brilliant

AHobbyaweek · 14/11/2020 23:27

I have the natural cycles app and tracked bbt and some cm but not consistently.
It is much more fun talking about sex toys to be honest.
I just have a tendency to get obsessive easily with things like this. Nice to talk about a range of things rather than what the foof is doing.

Chlo2701 · 14/11/2020 23:31

Omg I'm only upto Thursday night but @Gem176 I just wanted to acknowledge your posts! Sooo heartbreaking but sooo warming at the same time!!! Can't imagine how your brother felt! Sorry this is posting on Saturday night & im writing about comments from Thursday night🙈 I promise I'm trying my best to catch up!

Minster2012 · 15/11/2020 00:32

@AHobbyaweek well we are definitely about more than just TTC, that's what gets us through 😂🤣, nothing is out of bounds, nothing TMI & we help each other but we love to talk anything & everything 😂, I think we've singlehandly kept the UK trade in business
