BUS 25-TTC the messiah 🤰spewing out jizz, jingling balls & BFPs for Xmas 🎄

[Minster2012]

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

Sneaky @lucyrp getting in there at the end 😍

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

@DJmum83 oh and my temp went back up although not really high in an exciting kind of way so I'm still preparing myself for disappointment!

Here we go...... hello ladies.
I've been missing because I wanted to not stress myself out with the whole TTC.
This is our 3rd cycle, on 5dpo I started getting a cramping sensation lasting 10-15 mins.
on 7dpo late in the evening, I and partner were at it and he jumped back and said i think your due on, TMI but it red period looking blood was all over him and on the sheets (this may help someone), I was abso mortified and ran to the bathroom and put some knickers and a pad in. woke up next morning to nothing? i did a test the evening of a sexathon and was negative and said to the fella i was hoping id catch this month.
fast forward to 10dpo pm(yesterday), i did a test, and as we had walked the dogs id left the test in my fleece jacket pocket. An hour later i remembered and ran upstairs making out i was putting my jammies on.
The faintest fecking line and i were like " is it"???!!!! you gotta be shitting me!!! shouted him and he thought he was being told off for some shit. well, he said I can defo see something I guess we will have to wait.
So today I did like 4 and they all have very faint lines. I'm so excited for us. Il is waiting till he breaks up for 2 weeks off work on Friday as he's on half a day to give him the official early Xmas present. I'm would be due af on Thursday.
Nice to see you all again, but i think not trying to hard have worked and stopped thinking about it and relaxed. we dtd day before and the day after ovulation.

11dpo very faint

ps, il leave another text till Friday morning using clear blue and clear blue dig, so fingers crossed that things will be ok and the lines will be a lot darker by then.

Loving the bus name, about spat my teat out lmao

@DKDK123 I had day 2 and 21 done but they somehow did them the wrong way around. Luckily they took progesterone both times so we did have that for 21. I had to go for another day 2 as they need fsh and lh. They did it wrong again! I've now got to have another 21 because the last one was now a while ago and I need yet another day 2 because they can't bloody do it right. 🙄

@Dsr87 sounds/looks promising! You need a FMU or long hold really. Obviously waiting more days would be better but I'm not a good role model for that!

@Juno231 I really hope so fingers crossed.
My FRER still have not arrived so I ordered more says it's will be here tomorrow.

I think your chart looks good.
Have everything crossed for you, a Christmas present you won't forget xxxx

Aploguses if this is ignorant but I don't understand the temp charts......I've never taken my temperature so I'm not sure what it would show. I'm 10 dpo af due 18th 41 day cycle this month due to having covid. I've noticed I'm really hot but could that be af related? This group is so educational in many many ways

thank yuo!! and yup, im impatient too, but i will test again first thing in the morning after OH has left for work.

@amy2503 hi! Just wanted to say I had this exact problem, and it was 100% the pressure of it. We'd never ever had the issue before and then as soon as it became routine and timed, we struggled. We actually ended up taking a couple of months off because i didn't want it to become a regular thing, and then the month we relaxed we got our BFP (even thought we only DTD once in fertile week!) so you're defo not out, but also not your fault. These things are very common xx

@KateColx thank you SOmuch. I'm so glad it's not something to worry about and it just happens.

To everyone who's helped me today - we've chatted about it tonight and I explained I was worried I'd made him feel crap and that I was stressing because today's probably my last fertile day before the egg dies. We are fine and I'm hoping we do do it again tonight as I feel we are in a better place- but after this month I'm going to stop telling him xxxx

@lucyrp lol not quite in the same way though x

Feeling a bit overwhelmed with everything tonight, so watching a crappy Xmas film to cheer myself up. Think it's all just hit me at once 😖

Any tips for digging yourself out of the "this will never happen without intervention" hole anyone?

@Newbie0818 I usually just come in here and you ladies talk some sense into me🤩

@Skip86 love actually is a must for us each year 😁

Soz ladies was busy wiping my paprika foof (it's spreading I'm afraid @Skip86) & working on my new business venture

"Parenting anonymously, the Mumsnet diaries how to create, raise & survive a child in modern ways (featuring my bun in her oven, wee & poo in all the wrong places, a bucket load of gin & a guest appearance from Jessica rabbit)"

So yeah it seems AF making an appearance here, only a bit of chilli on the paper wiping so far but likely full force tomorrow.

@DJmum83 you put it in wrong?? So if @Juno231 is excited I think that's good right??

@DOB78 don't worry I'm not a chart geek either but I follow @Juno231 s lead!

@Florence13 you would cope, we all do! We are women after all! We rule the world!

@Dsr87 i find your post quite rude I'm afraid. I prefer to support ppl who support others and you haven't taken any time to even look at any other posts or anything or even say good luck to any of us. I will say good luck to you and congrats, thanks for taking the time to put your post and I wish you the best

@Newbie0818 stick it in someone else's oven??? 🤣😂but yeah, whinge to us 😚😘

I do apologise, i am have just sat down after feeding the kids i am currently reading all posts. can you tell me how i remove my post as i didn't want to come across to be insensitive to others

i do honestly wish everyone luck and babydust, merry xmas all.xx

@Minster2012 paprika foof 😂 that's done it for me!

@Minster2012 @Newbie0818 that deserves to go on the list (of things you need to do to get pregnant)

@Newbie0818 @Franklydear wait, should it be JUST RELAX it's only a little bit of paprika foof
thank goodness for that!
Added.

@Minster2012 yeah I always put in femometer first and when I checked that chart it looked different then realised I had put wrong temp in for yesterday, I have them all in my notes. So when I changed it, I thought it looked a bit better.I'm honestly got all my fingers crossed. @Juno231 excitement is making me excited.

How's your day been? Hope your feeling ok. Xx

@amy2503 many of us found that telling DH/OH when OV was Gonna happen all of a sudden somewhat "dampened the mood". Maybe next month send him a sultry text or do date night around the time instead?

@Minster2012 sorry AF is on its way. I hope it's a painless one for you and I'm sending prayers for your BFP in the new year.

Can't remember who I tag but Live actually is a favourite of mine at this time of year.
Hubby says not again but I think he secretly enjoys it too.
