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

Story 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??

@BlondePotter hi,yes those ones. I have those and one frer dont want to waste the frer at 10po but dont want to use the one step one and it not be useful. Also trying not to buy more tests.

Minster's getting creative!! Can you tell what it is yet?!! No it's not an instrument of torture!

@Juno231 I hope I jump out of the bin tomorrow! My rhr will probably stay low tomorrow, wouldn't surprise me😂

@2alreadywantanother it's looking good!! I don't know whether to trust my rhr, a few cycles ago it was looking so good, had a dip at 7dpo then it kept increasing and I was convinced, then it only dipped on the day af arrived!! I was fuming😂

@vil10 my friend that mc 3 wks b4 me is a few days late and still no sign. BFN too. Its very disheartening

@Minster2012 a Christmas card display?

Found this on reddit and it's 100% me 😅

@Juno231 jump out of the bin? Eh? Literally soooo confused right now.

@Minster2012 I think you meant @vil10 ? I told her welcome to the looney bin and she is hoping to be jumping back out of it!

Ahhh yes sorry @Juno231 & @Vil10 everyone we will jump out of the bin!! Sorry blinded by the lights! Love that meme though! It's part of my window display for my advent calendar window I suddenly realised I'm number 19 so that's Saturday ooooppps so I have to "reveal" my advent window display on Saturday. Some stupid bint suggested it for the village last year. (Me🤪🤣🙄) this is tonight's in a big posh house down the road and there's another couple too

I mean, no pressure 🙄

@IndigoJam ppl certainly use them fir OPKs maybe a bit early for an IC for a HCG though?

@2alreadywantanother ohhh it must be so hard!!

@Juno231 that meme is so me!! I thought I'd be pregnant by August and was fully prepared to tell the girls who I went on holiday with that I wouldn't be drinking because I was pregnant😂😂

@Minster2012 that's such a lovely idea! Can't wait to see yours!!

@Juno231 omg so me too! Stealing that 😉
@Minster2012 pretty lights 🤩 can't wait to see the finished article, you can do it! X

@2020mission they worked for me (although took 3 months of use) so 🤞🏻

Sorry to hear about AF @DJmum83 😔

@Juno231 sounds hopeful 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Evening all, just having a quick catch up. Last day at work tomorrow then 2 weeks Christmas holidays 🎉🎉

Sorry to all I've missed, big love xxx

@Justanothercyster oh that makes sense, glad you got a good shot at catching the egg so.

@blodyn91 that wss very wise. I won't lie I thought you were a mad woman planning the two so close together 😂 you will have the best of both worlds now 😀

@Minster2012 she is amazing, never lets me down.

@DJmum83 sorry to read your update 😥

@IndigoJam they are not bad. I have previously hot a bfp on one of them at 11dpo.

@Minster2012 looking forward to seeing the finished window.

@Vil10 @Juno231 @2alreadywantanother
So hard not to symptom spot! Good luck to you all.

I'm being deliberately nonchalant this month 😂 every time I wonder about something I just say nah, had that before wasn't pregnant! I'm determined not to build my hopes up and spend Christmas disappointed. So not being negative as such but not letting myself hope too much 😊

How are you feeling @Clairey844? Other than ready for a break!? Xx

I've stupidly googled and now I'm worried my monthly co-codamol to get through AF pain is not helping with TTC 😑 I'm going to buy some paracetamol tomorrow and try to only take those in future. I honestly just can't sit at a desk for work and sleep at night with the pain of cramps. If it's not during the night and not a working day I'm fine as I can exercise to ease it instead.

Glad to hear positive things about the trying for a baby pills from most of you 🤞 I'm so tempted to buy and wrap up a pack of wellman conception to put in my husband's Christmas stocking 😂

@Minster2012 that street advent calendar is such a nice idea. Looking forward to seeing your finished window!

@Minster2012 wow that's such a brilliant idea and says a lot about what kind of lovely place you must be living in!

@katao see i say that too, but I've gåva few cycles of new symptoms that throws me off guard. Eg the nosebleed in Sep I've never had before and today I've also realised I have big veiny boobs which I never ever get! Always something to cling all my hopes onto 😅

@notyetamumbuttrying @vil10 omg tell me about it - do you remember me flapping at the start of the year about me having a wedding in india to go to in Nov?? I was either expecting to be too far along to travel or at risk of zika lol....

@katao but I've had a few* - pardon the Swedish autocorrect!

@Juno231 totally relate to that meme too as when I started in January I was thinking Christmas this year we'd have a wee 2-3 month old 😂 so naive.

@Minster2012 Fine, like scarily fine. Sore boobs and a bit tired but literally just normal. Had an early scan Friday of last week and saw a tiny bean with a heartbeat so that was reassuring but I'm still feeling so cautious-haven't even phoned the GP to get into the system and be contacted by a midwife but probably should as I'm 7wks tomorrow lol.
Thanks for asking. How are you? I didn't comment but reading all the info about the rules around surrogacy you wrote yesterday was absolutely fascinating but also blew my mind. You really must write a book one day.

I love coming on here and seeing all the gazillions of messages, it's like a familiar armchair that just feels comfy and homely. Plus it's nice to see how everyone is getting on.

@lucyrp and @2020mission I brought these but not due to the recommendation. Was taking them last time I got pregnant and was just taking them because vitamins... coincidence?!?

@Juno231 you sent out yet!

@DJmum83 oh no

Ugh I'm getting annoyed with my stupid body now. My temp hasn't dropped after my positive opk and now all the ewcm has gone after the last week of oyster moistness. Not had much of a rise either so I'm thinking I might not ov this month 😒

BUT. We don't have Covid! Our results are negative 🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽 so definitely flying tomorrow 🙌🏼

@Clairey844 omg you haven't booked in yet ?🙈 I rang immediately as my friend suggested they're probably even busier than usual because of Covid! I felt a bit silly ringing at 4 weeks but didn't want to be waiting silly waiting times for my appointment. Go on ring them up😉

@AHobbyaweek omg really?? How long had you been taking them for before you got pregnant ? X

@juno231 that's totally me in ur pic. I'm like ok theres still time for that Christmas miracle. Or if AF arrives I'm drinking the head of myself 😂😂
Rhr ended up going up 1 more yest and it's up again today. 8dpo and I'm bricking it girls. I try so hard not to get my hopes up, just can help it.
Reading up on implantation days etc, and the later ones have a higher chance of mc. Anyone know about this stuff. My implantation happened at 10dpo last time and think theres 34% or something like that more chance of mc.
Well if this bean is currently trying to stick right now (going by rhr) I'm 8dpo now. So praying the bean is good and sticking and plants itself into a snug corner 🤞
I just want my 🌈 baby #christmaswish 🎅

Morning girls!!

@Justanothercyster I really hope you did ov, but what good news for a Friday morning that you can fly!! Not jealous at all🙄

@2alreadywantanother it's so hard not getting your hopes up when it's something you really want and all the signs are there! When is af due for you? I'm also 8dpo today and my rhr dipped by 1 yesterday and has gone back up now, but I'm not really getting my hopes up because other peoples rhr I've seen after getting their bfps, their implantation dip has been quite big! I'm really hoping for you this month!!x

Morning ladies!!
@Clairey844 wow you haven't phoned! But that's awesome you've have a scan @ seen heartbeat amazing!! You need to get booked in & tell us lovely 🥰🌈get some rainbows your way

@Juno231 I did think about everyone saying about weddings to go to & India & having "that month off" etc made me laugh the other night! Veiny boobs you say 👀

@2020mission see what's it's like with paracetamol hun

@Justanothercyster get yourself to Dubai girl!! 🥰✈️🛫don't worry bout OV or not, as you'll have caught it anyway

@2alreadywantanother think it's all of us isn't it and surely there's no correlation in late implantation and MC. But any baby has to implant so 🐣🤞🏻
