Bus🚌24 Dec TTC Itchy nips poking thru homemade wreaths, Peeing on 🎄crafting sticks, Touch me up 🎅🏻baby with your festive 🍆cos all we want for 🎄is a BFP!!

[Minster2012]

Welcome to the longest running funniest bus ride in history! Or so we like to think anyway...

We talk sex, tv, work, more sex, food, slimming, RHR, charts, spicing things up or down, crafting (a more recent addition for 🎄🎅🏻) and help each other out in any way possible. Oh and yeah Trying to make babies gets mentioned a bit too but more often than not our bodies just do what they want!

When I say a few of us have been around the TTC block I don’t mean 🍆I mean as a MN group, not just a bus, a mini sanctuary since March for some of through the highs and lows of making babies through 2020 ❤️🥰

How we roll on this bus...
⁃ No judgement & each to their own on your TTC journey
⁃ Sense of humour DEFINITELY required
⁃ A few of us like a sex toy a few don’t, there may be sex toys discussed! 🤪a few of our fellas have enjoyed this aspect
⁃ Support each other, ranting is allowed, saying you are down is encouraged & celebrating our happy days too 😘
⁃ We have fun
⁃ If you have a pet, it’s welcome aboard
⁃ Now mandatory picture of your 🎄tree when up or Xmas decorations / Xmas jumper or similar
⁃ Ditto Wreath - extra points awarded if wreath is homemade 🥰
⁃ NOTHING IS TOO MUCH INFORMATION

@Vil10 currently holds the 👑for filthiest/most embarrassing story, can you beat her??? Though @lucyrp recently spewed sambucca over her fingers so maybe that’s debatable

Story so far...

June 24 BFPs
July 11 BFPs
August 18 BFPs
Sep 4 BFPs
Oct 7 BFPs
Nov 7 BFPs

2 BFPs in Dec already and it’s the 1st 🥳

How many more 🤔

I already have my stepmom after some and want some for myself. I have checked I can't take knitting needles to the court but will take the crochet hook and yarn as have some other presents to make.
So happy to be not working for a while and can have some thinking space.

@Minster2012 only our second month TTC for first baby. I know it can take a while so I'm feeling fine about it. Think I might try OPKs next month. Never used them before so any advice would be helpful!

Morning girls!

Have some exciting news to share... I just had a feeling! I'm 11dpo xx

Well, I was brave!! Now I'm shaking and I need to get ready for work.

This was a £1 cheapy test from Adsa. My sister said she has a clear blue and first response left over, so I will do those in the next few days, just to double check.

What do I do next?

@LauraT94 and @JustMouse yay congrats! I've completely forgotten but how long were you both ttc for?
Starting December nicely for the rest of us 🎄🎉

@LauraT94 @JustMouse wow, good morning!
Call the go and they’ll give you the number to call the midwife service, they’ll give you the time scales for the rest

@Newbie0818 - we started in January. It's been a long 12 months with a deployment in the middle.

Morning ladies, nothing to report really other than my rhr is definitely not playing ball this cycle and my bbt isn't that great either but still holding onto the fact I have ovulated.

Congratulations to you ladies @JustMouse @LauraT94 🥰

@LauraT94 @JustMouse oh wow congratulations ladies I'm so happy for you!

@lucyrp yes that definitely looks like a decent ovulation shift. It feels good to see it when you're unsure if you're ovulating doesn't it.

Well after all those demon shadow lines etc I'm out again ladies. AF arrived just now the bitch 😔

Amazing news to wake up to @LauraT94 and @JustMouse 🎉🎉🎉

@KateColx thank you for that. That’s eased my mind slightly. Waiting for the scan appointment to come through should be just before Christmas. Again thank you x

@LauraT94 and @JustMouse congratulations to the both of you x

Congratulations 🥳 @JustMouse and @LauraT94! Wonderful news x

Aw congratulations @LauraT94 and @JustMouse , what wonderful news!

Hurray! Congratulations @LauraT94 and @JustMouse!

Sorry AF arrived @Joanna1009 ☹️

@AHobbyaweek those socks look awesome!

@Minster2012 hahaha yeah probably a good thing you didn't get a real🐰 😂🙈

@lucyrp yes! Always good to have confirmation of ovulation 😊

Debating whether to start taking my bbt next cycle. I'm pretty bad in the mornings - they're so hard! - so I'm not sure I'd be able to do it properly 😂

@LauraT94 congratulations!!!!
@JustMouse congratulations!!!!

Wow an exciting morning

I was a good girl and did not POAS. My temps are going down though from OV.

@Joanna1009 boo for AF

@AHobbyaweek those socks look great, wish I had the inclination to make things...and the skill ha ha

@lucyrp yay for ovulation, 🤞🏻you caught the egg. How many dpo does your chart make you?

Xx

So I've just tested...

@Joanna1009 i started temping ages ago and because my cycles were so long I gave up at around day 30 but then when I got told I hadn't ovulated on the blood test it gave me the push to actually temp the whole way through to see if I would ovulate later on in the cycle and two cycles in a row I've picked it up now!

@InkyPaper yesss it is ! Especially when you're not sure if you are or not !

@Clairey844 i am currently 6dpo I think !

Wow look at all these BFP massive congratulations to you all, really pleased for you.

Not sure where I am at or if have ovulated. Hubby couldn't manage last night and I don't think he will manage tonight think he might have a UTI.
So think I'll be out this month xx

@LauraT94 @JustMouse congratulations ladies!! Lovely news on a Friday❤️ remind me again how long you've both been trying?x

@Joanna1009 so sorry af arrived🙁

@Liloulou ahhh congratulations!! What a morning for BFP's!! How long have you been TTC?x

@DJmum83 don't count yourself out yet! I'm sure you had it covered, only takes the once x

So I'm CD14, flo predicts ovulation on the 9th, so entering fw tomorrow, I contemplated doing smep this cycle but then decided against it because I wanted another relaxed approach but it seems weve been doing smep without realising! DTD on CD8, 11 and 13, will probs DTD tonight tomorrow and Sunday too, we usually do every weekend, then I might try for Tuesday Wednesday Thursday, but not putting too much pressure in it, the spontaneous sex these last few days has been nice!x

@Liloulou 🥳 congratulations!!

WOWSERS!!!!

There's me completely obviously shitty bus driver I'm terrible so sorry!!

@LauraT94 fantastic news!! Brilliant and a quick catch yes 🥳❤️🙌🏻🥰congratulations!

@JustMouse sooooo pleased you get a lovely early Xmas present for OH just after he goes away are you going to tell him?? That's so good!! What a Friday!! AMAZING!! 🥳🥰😍

So sorry @Joanna1009 thems bloody shadows are bitches always playing tricks. But it's Friday so mulled wine/gin/wine/all???? Chocolate? Did you sort it out with OH the other night?

@InkyPaper I couldn't get on with temping. Something about screwing it up after wine.

@AHobbyaweek you get a 🌟for not POAS

@Liloulou that's looking great for so early! And cycle 2? Wow!! Do you have any pink dye tests? ❤️🙌🏻

Thank you all, in a way I kind of knew something was different. I had about a week of sore boobs which I never normally get pre AF. I also thought it was strange that AF hasn't turned up after some light spotting, it's normally bang on time. @Vil10 Nov was our second month TTC our first so it's all happened much quicker than I thought! Hasn't really sunk in yet. It's my birthday tomorrow too so guess I'll be passing on any bday drinks (not that we can go out anyway ha!)

Congratulations @LauraT94 and @JustMouse! @JustMouse I recognise your username from many buses ago so extra happy to see the good news for you! There is hope 🤞 did either of you do anything different this month? Probably not but always hoping to hear tips 😆

Oh I've missed @Liloulou! Three in one day 🙌
