Well ladies....buckle up cos this bus is often more like a 🏎🤣

We are TTC in often weird and wonderful ways and that’s the way we like it...long as we are there for each other, which some of us have been for longer than we care to remember 😜. So whether your glass of half empty, half full, a pint glass, a shot glass (a tic tac container?), a mug of tea, this is where we come to refill it...🥰 Mumsnet is our happy place 🥰

Don’t forget...
⁃ No judgement
⁃ 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 😊
⁃ If you have a pet, it’s welcome aboard
⁃ mandatory picture of your 🎄tree /Xmas decorations / Xmas jumper or similar
⁃ Ditto Wreath - extra points awarded if wreath is homemade 🥰
⁃ We may stray away from TTC a fair bit
⁃ NOTHING IS TOO MUCH INFORMATION

Story so far...

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

7 BFPs in Dec so far ....
Sneaky @lucyrp getting in there at the end 😍

How many more 🤔
Can we birth the messiah???
Or will we get thrown off Mumsnet??

@paintfairy do you think it's a good sign?
🤣😬xxx

Newbie0818 · 13/12/2020 19:23

@Vil10 that sounds awful! People need to be more careful :( no doubt she'll feel bad when she eventually knows you were ttc all along. My gosh. Hugs to you x

@notyetamumbuttrying and you x haha I'm the same in the tww.

@Minster2012 oh bless him! Such a cutie haha

@KateColx ahh I love Elf. We watched it last night 💕 also- your living room is to die for!

@paintfairy it's very chick flick-y but quite a nice watch :)

Ladies I'm SO excited. This time next week I'll be with my family in Dubai! ☀️☀️☀️ although I'm BRICKING it as we take a covid test on Wednesday and I'm paranoid we'll be positive because of teaching. Going to stay away from the germ carrying pests that are children 😂 4 days to go!
Also waiting for my temp drop and rise to confirm ov 🤨

Minster2012 · 13/12/2020 19:55

@Vil10 she seems pretty cold hearted but I guess if she's not ready 🤷‍♀️anyway, we are here for you.

@JustMouse you can have soft cheese if they are cooked so like baked Camembert is ok for instance but o wouldn't have too much and you can swerve eating much on a cheese board by just eating some cheddar then "being stuffed", if you are hosting then drinks you can take quite a bit. Buy a fake sparkling wine or Prosecco or if you usually drink g & t then get OH to go make it and just put in ice a slice of lemon and then just tonic and it looks the same. It's more difficult if someone else's house of course or wine at the dinner table but if you are wandering around it's very easy to have a wine glass in your hand, nurse it then keep putting it down and "losing it". The Xmas cake though, if it has a whole bottle of booze in it I'd enjoy it guilt free as it's food right?? Prawns are fine. Berries? Fine. Charcuterie no unless cooked like on pizza but it ain't gonna kill you or the baby so meh like @blodyn says & i personally would have a glass of wine or fizz if you want to hide it but that's me it's not for everyone

@2020mission I think we've proved 12 months doesn't mean much lovely so don't think like that & I'll be having lots of sparkling water with my wine over Xmas!

@paintfairy prob the only place my DH hasn't pissed is the bed, my BIL for 5 years every time he got drunk did it...with SIL in it. We bought a waterproof mattress protector just for him staying 😂. Whoop whoop for ovulation 🍆🙌🏻

Aghhhhhh Dubai @Newbie0818 we won't be jealous. Nope. Hell no. 😩

@Minster2012 yes I had a lovely day I was mostly food shopping but I had 2 presents to buy and got them. I'm all wrapped abs everything.
I'm working all through Xmas and nee year only have Christmas Eve and Christmas Day off so need to be organised.

@blodyn91 thanks it was me that tested today I'm either 9 or 10 dpo and it was a BFN. Going to try wait it out now. AF due Wednesday so we will see. Xx

Juno231 · 13/12/2020 20:17

@paintfairy ha i thought you tagged me as the friend whose OH pissed in bed with her in it - cause that IS me!!

@DJmum83 hope you saw what blodyn91 wrote on the previous page about her bfn/BFPs!

@amy2503 totally a dye stealer!

@franklydear you made me lol when you suggested to vil10 that the room mount need hoovering 🤣

Got pinching on my right ovary today and trying to ignore it!

Franklydear · 13/12/2020 20:21

@Juno231 and I would do it too, my DH won't dare messing like that

JustMouse · 13/12/2020 20:27

@lucyrp - My plan is to book a scan for about 30th December, I should around 8 weeks then. Then wrap the scan up, and give it to them as we enter into the new year - all my sisters idea!

@Kirky658 - Take the time out you need for yourself. I know i've had to go quiet a few times on here because everything became too much. Sending a hug x

@Minster2012 - Its the mould blue cheeses that are my favourite! I had stomach surgery 3 years ago, so can play the i'm stuffed very well. I had to do it last night, i've really gone off anything sweet and just couldn't face a piece of birthday cake. I'm not a drinker, so always the driver, so another lucky escape on that one. As long as my Christmas dinner has a yummy piece of stuffing with it, i'll be happy.

@Newbie0818 - 4 days and counting!! It can't come soon enough.

Minster2012 · 13/12/2020 20:56

@Sausage1990 another beautiful tree! We can all do Christmas so well!! What are you ask for in your stocking??

@JustMouse ahh I see on the blue cheese yeah best to avoid those 😋

@Juno231 no pinching I'm sure. Nope. 🥒

KateColx · 13/12/2020 21:38

@Vil10 just the thought of a 7am finish makes me feel rough 😂😂 is he working tomorrow? I feel like day 2 after a night like that is always the worst bit 😂 I had an awkward situ just after I found out I was pregnant with a girl I work with who had also just found out but didn't want to keep it, felt like I didn't know what to say. Yesss for Xmas breaks 🙌🏻 it's going wel thanks gorge, I've started to feel better this week which is a relief, although also a worry that I may now start to gain weight so need to start watching what I eat. How are you? 😬😂 x

DJmum83 · 13/12/2020 21:40

@Juno231 I did see it gives me a bit of hope.

I have a good feeling about you this month @Juno231 xxx

KateColx · 13/12/2020 21:45

@Sausage1990 ah thanks lovely, the dining room is where everything gets dumped 😂 love your tree! 😍

@blodyn91 im glad you've said that! We had steak last night and I had mine medium, and was worried about the middle 🤦🏼‍♀️ ended up giving most of it to my OH 🙄

@Newbie0818 it's such a good feel good Xmas film isn't it! I'm still yet to watching Home Alone 2 which is one of my faves 🥰 thank you ☺️☺️ SO jealous of your Dubai trip 😍

Runnergirl1 · 13/12/2020 21:49

@Minster2012 haven’t received anything lovely x

Vil10 · 13/12/2020 22:40

@paintfairy I think that's what she's worried about now, because she's had 2 abortions and now miscarried, she's worried that's going to be a regular occurrence for her in the future! He definitely got told what a knob he was too!

@Newbie0818 I'm definitely going to tell her, I've been there for her this weekend so I don't want to insensitive and just Chuck it in like yeah well kinda thing! How exciting that you'll be in Dubai!! So jealous! You'll have a lovely time!

@Minster2012 she is a little bit, like water off a ducks back! Thankyou!!❤️

@lucyrp lovely tree!!

@KateColx yep he's working tomorrow, and I hope he's still rough, serves him right😂 it's awkward isn't it, I just didn't know what to say! When do you go back to work after Christmas, have you got a while off? Oh good I'm glad, you embrace that baby bump though, you'll be glowing!! I'm good Thankyou, trying to keep cool as a 🥒 this cycle because I want it so bad this cycle, it would just be perfect, but trying to put it to the back of my mind and focus on this next busy week!x

Minster2012 · 13/12/2020 22:46

Ahhh @Runnergirl1 I got your username wrong, hold on, try again!!

@Minster2012 🎉🎉🎉🎉💃🏼💃🏼🕺🏽�🕺🏽

@JustMouse tell me about it 😂 I'm keeping my mask and gloves on all day at school this week!

@lucyrp aww what a beautiful tree! From the look of that room it looks like we both have the same style. How are you feeling? X

@KateColx it's awesome! Ah I need to watch that still. We've got a different Xmas movie on each night haha. Last night was the Grinch and Nightmare before Xmas.

@Vil10 that makes sense. Like you said you want to be there for her but you also want her to be aware. I know, I'm so excited!

lucyrp · 14/12/2020 06:50

@Vil10 thanks! We love a real tree I'm obsessed with the smell of it 😍

@Newbie0818 thank you! I love it, a few years ago we had silver decorations etc and I wasn't feeling it at all so back to the traditional red and gold and warm lights 🥰 I forgot there wasn't a picture in the top of the frame I keep going to add one in but forget 😂 I'm feeling fine thank you, I wish I was getting nausea but nothing yet I'm sure that will come soon no doubt. No symptoms really yet ! How are you ? Omg me and DS watched the animated grinch last night! Love it, we've just got a tv in our room just in time for pregnancy and early nights 😉😂x

DKDK123 · 14/12/2020 07:57

Before I even say hello I want to do a massive squeal of delight and say congratulations @lucyrp! I was on earlier buses so know your journey and I'm so over the moon it's finally your turn again!

Sad to still see some familiar names still on the bus.....didn't take me 2mins to work out what bus you were all on, loving the name ha ha

For those that don't know me, ttc number 2 since last August and have had 4 CPs in that time. The last one hit me really hard so jumped off the bus for a while just to get my head together. Now sitting in the car park of the docs waiting to get my 21day bloods taken and have scans to check what's going on inside at the end of the month. It's all seeming very real again so thought it was time I hopped back on the bus again.

amy2503 · 14/12/2020 08:14

Hey ladies. Feeling pretty down today. So last night me and fiancé did it with it being my peak etc. He was really tired but I managed to get him in the mood or so I thought... long story short, he didn't finish. I feel like I've failed him, she I feel really guilty too for feeling sad about it.. I don't want him to feel pressured or anything. Obviously I'd do it tonight again if possible but like I say I don't want him to get pressured etc. I feel like it's all my fault. I don't think this month is our month 😥

Katao · 14/12/2020 08:59

Aw @DKDK123 welcome back! I have often wondered how you were getting on. I was so sad for you after your last cp. Glad you are getting investigations now and hope you get some answers.

@amy2503 these things happen, or don't happen as the case may be. Just have a chat and see where he is at. I'm sure it was just tiredness. If you manage tonight great but if not don't stress.

Vil10 · 14/12/2020 09:19

@Newbie0818 not jealous at all!☀️

@lucyrp my mum has always had a real tree and i love it purely for the smell too!! But my OH already had a fake one when I moved in and it's a decent one to be fair so I've just made do with this but when we move I'll definitely be getting a real one!!

@DKDK123 welcome back!! Glad you're getting some bloods done and I hope you get some answers back lovely x

@amy2503 don't worry things like this happen, don't put pressure on yourself either, I'd maybe just chat to him and see how he feels about it all, he might've not been able to finish because it was like a scheduled bonk?x

Franklydear · 14/12/2020 09:26

@amy2503 this things happen, the pressure gets to them too, I just stop telling him where in the cycle I am
@DKDK123 welcome back! Hope those investigations yield some results
@Vil10 you can support each other in your different journeys
@lucyrp great tree

I came back home from children a +e at 2.30 in the morning, at nearly 8.30, ds took himself to bed, unheard of, with headache, blurry vision, just unwell, 20 min later he called crying, gave him calpol called 111, they say migraine, take him to a+e, by the time we got there he was a bit better as in no longer lethargic, but still the same, he perk up later, they think is viral (=we don’t know) and starting and he’ll get worst today, and they pick up on a long constipation problem and gave him laxatives, he has sensory issues with fruit so very limited fruit and veg. He still sleeping and I should be too but woke up🤷🏼‍♀️

lucyrp · 14/12/2020 09:29

@DKDK123 thank you so much! Means the world 🥰 glad to hear you've hopped back on and that you're getting tests etc done ! Baby dust to you 💓

paintfairy · 14/12/2020 09:36

@amy2503 I'm lucky we don't have that problem. But even so, I don't actually really tell him what's happening any more. Because it felt scheduled and I could tell he felt annoyed. And although I still know iy is really and wish I didn't, he probably doesn't. The other day we really needed to do it (probably the only hit I got this month) and I just casually said I felt horny and he was like- I can oblige if you want? And that was that.

@Minster2012 mattress protector was obviously a good idea!
@Juno231 omg. 🙈 🤣 Got to love them hey?
@DKDK123 hello! Nice to meet you.
I hope your dr is better than mine and can manage to do the right bloods. 🤣 I'm starting to become jealous of other people's successful blood tests. I want one! 😫

Minster2012 · 14/12/2020 09:38

Morning ladies

And her @DKDK123 sorry to see you back and the CPs that really sucks ass I'm so sorry love 😩yes some of us are still here but we are gradually kicking these OGs off the bus 😋💕I hope the bloods give you some insight lovely

@amy2503 it's not your fault at all you've not failed and you aren't out this month so don't talk like that, it only takes once, there have been plenty of ladies on the bus who have only DTD once or twice and caught 💓

@Franklydear noooo all the hugs sweetheart. Try get some sleep love
