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??

@Minster2012 omg I feel like that's another person added to our shotgun list! What is wrong with people?!

@katekam10 was that a sneaky announcement or did I miss the original one? Either way congrats! How long did that take you in the end?

@2alreadywantanother my RHR does whatever it feels like around ovulation normally so i wouldn't trust it over opk, EWCM and bbt :)

notyetamumbuttrying · 18/12/2020 19:27

@Minster2012 I was more thinking someone would get a Christmas miracle and not need the appointment!
Aw sorry to hear of your sad memory my love. What's the cows head pic about?
Sorry the call didn't go well, they can be so unhelpful at times can't they!
@Justanothercyster hopefully Barbados as it got cancelled in March for the obvious reason 😂 enjoy seeing your family!
@Juno231 sounds fab! Such a great country isn't it!
@katekam10 such a good thread right 😆
Congrats on the bfp!!
@paintfairy so funny right 😂 aw not my dog sadly, would bloody love one though!
@DKDK123 exactly, be too easy tho wouldn't it lol!
Just about to have an Indian then will do a proper catch up! Xx

paintfairy · 18/12/2020 19:38

@Minster2012 WTAF? Yeah happy Christmas to you too love! How useless. What on earth is wrong with these people.

And the tree is up! Its naked. But it's up. 🤣

InkyPaper · 18/12/2020 20:09

Congratulations @katekam10!

@Minster2012 big hugs! sounds like you've had a bit of a shit time today. Could the receptionist have been any more unhelpful?! Sorry you had to deal with that ☹️

@2020mission urgh that is just not what you want. Maybe mute the work WhatsApp for a day or two so you don't have to deal with anymore notifications about it?

@Justanothercyster hope your trip to Dubai goes well!!

@paintfairy yay for the naked tree! 😂

Minster2012 · 18/12/2020 20:10

Ahhhh @Juno231 yes adding to the list 😂🤣we do call that consultant nurse the "angel of death" she's got such a way with words bless her, it was hard to then say "ok great thank, happy Xmas" urgh. Anyway, it is what it is, pay £1600 next week and move on

But a penis pokey & have fun! 😂😅

@amy2503 sorry how far intro TWW are you? There's quite a few ladies in TWW over Xmas so I think you are in great company atm lovely

@notyetamumbuttrying the cows head is a stags head but I hadn't put the antlers in and it's part of my advent window for tomorrow night to be turned into Rudolph!

So our company actually finished today midday & instead of usual piss up meal & DH leaving money at bars for them to carry on & him coming back last year at 8pm & throwing up over my shoulder up the world ...see rant the other day so DH ordered pizzas to the office & left them to it with 4 cases of beer & wine & all
The booze we've been sent...he's been watching the cameras ever since. So they got their drink. Heavy plant and drink. What can go wrong. Lucky they've all got lifts today. 🤦🏼‍♀️DH working til Tuesday I'm doing weds. Tuesday hair day!!

@paintfairy is the tree staying naked???

amy2503 · 18/12/2020 20:16

@Minster2012 I'm 4dpo I think... so I've got about 10 days to go I think? xxxx

amy2503 · 18/12/2020 20:17

@Minster2012 but my ov was late... so that's based on ovulation. I was due to have my period on the 26th but now it's saying 29th. Probably somewhere in the middle lol xx

Justanothercyster · 18/12/2020 20:18

@Minster2012 nah not me 🤷🏼‍♀️
Sorry they were shitty over the phone :( not helpful at all! Sometimes they forget there's a human at the other end of the line. I hope someone with an actual brain gets in touch soon x

@Juno231 yeah tbh it's not really a "holiday" for me either but I grew up there so it's home :)

@katekam10 congrats!

@LaceyMermaid thank you love, have a nice Christmas x

@notyetamumbuttrying ooh lovely!

Juno231 · 18/12/2020 20:21

@Justanothercyster did you?! How have I missed this!

paintfairy · 18/12/2020 20:34

@Minster2012 @InkyPaper I hope it isn't staying naked. How are we even this close to Christmas? Just have no time to ever do anything! Foster dog seems to be more time consuming than thought. 😫
I've not wrapped a single thing either!

And I'm working right up until Christmas technically!

Katao · 18/12/2020 21:01

I'm not caught up but I put that AIBU thread thst @notyetamumbuttrying into my watch list earlier and just clicked in and it's been deleted!!! I have serious fomo 😥😅

Minster2012 · 18/12/2020 21:02

@InkyPaper it went the receptionist it was the bloody consultant nurse, she's the number two!! One down from the consultant!

@paintfairy ooo
Foster dog, do we have a picture??? Are they onboard the bus????

@Justanothercyster sorry, my mistake, wasn't fully awake this morning clearly....probs not now...gin probably not helping front now...well...it kinda is 🤪.do you fly tomorrow?? Have an amazing time. Sooooo jealous

@amy2503 exciting there are a few with you don't worry!! About another week to go!

Minster2012 · 18/12/2020 21:03

@Katao that's hilarious I didn't check in on it later

paintfairy · 18/12/2020 21:18

@Minster2012 we've got an actual doggy (he was a rescue) but now we have a foster dog too! He came 2.50am Saturday morning. 😳

InkyPaper · 18/12/2020 21:22

Omg @Minster2012 that's even worse!!! She should 100% know better!!

@paintfairy there's just not enough hours in the day is there? 🙈 I'm working right up until Christmas too - hoping next week will be quiet and gentle 😂 aww your foster dog looks like a cutie, what's his name?

Vil10 · 18/12/2020 21:39

So we ended up going to the OH uncles house and his aunty ended up feeding me all sorts of alcoholic beverages, aperol spritz, cans, prosecco, we decided on the way home we'd got the taste for it so stopped off and got 2 bottles of red! It's Christmas🥂 hope everyone is having a lovely night x

Amy00 · 18/12/2020 21:42

Hey girls! I am back after MIA for like a month after my CP I needed a break from it all! Then has take me a week literally to catch up as I am a bit weird and can't bring myself to skip over messages!! But now obviously I can't reply to everyone as I am so out of date. However highlights @Minster2012 getting in trouble for the bus title 😂😂 would be us! Sorry phone call was shit. Can you ring on Monday and speak to someone else?

@Franklydear I hope you are ok, sounds like you had a rollercoaster of a month. Big hugs. Did I miss your love actually review?

@lucyrp OMG I was SO happy for you when I saw your post!! My heart was going so fast when I was reading it!! Sorry I'm late to the party but really pleased for you 🥰🥳 time to get the sleepyhead back down from the loft?

@notyetamumbuttrying what was the gist of the whale thread?? I've missed it too!!

@paintfairy what a cutie! Why did he arrive at 2:50am?!

Sorry again I've been crap at contributing - will try harder to keep up - should be easier now in theory finished work for the year 🥳 although I've got shitloads to get done still so actually might work tomorrow just to get it out the way so I can relax over Christmas properly!!

The star at the top of my tree is a big heavy 😂

Minster2012 · 18/12/2020 21:49

@paintfairy 2.50am??? What kind of a foster dog arrives at that time! But he looks cute, he looks like the dog from Midsomer murders!

@Vil10 sounds good!! Hope you had a great night!! I've had a few 😋🤪😂

@Amy00 I was literally looking at the list of ppl
On the bus just now wondering how ppL were!! How are you?! Loving the heavy star!! That's immense 😂I'm hoping I might hear something when I pay. We'll see 🤷‍♀️xx

OP posts:
Franklydear · 18/12/2020 21:55

@Amy00 yes, proper end of this year, innit?
It’s actually nearly 2 and a half hours long, I’ll need a moody tearful afternoon at home alone to get through that, I guess, I am more of a marvel kind of gal,...
Hope you are ok too, we all deal with things differently, this ladies have proped me up nicely💞

Amy00 · 18/12/2020 21:59

Also @Sausage1990 I'm so sorry it has taken been taking so long for your body to get through this phase. That's mega shit. Really good to hear though that it's probably an infection that is being sorted. Fresh start in the new year 🤞

@Minster2012 I'm good thanks! Got my dodgy ovary scan appointment next week on Christmas Eve of all days 🙄 and think they will probably go up the foof, but AF is due 22nd. The letter said if it's due in the middle of a heavy flow then reschedule. I would class my AF as light to medium so while a bit gross I'm sure they've seen worse 💁🏻‍♀️ or I'll have a BFP. 9 dpo today.

Juno231 · 18/12/2020 22:00

@vil10 we're on bottle of red number two so I approve!

@amy00 omg that star 🤣

@paintfairy he looks like a right snuggle monster - I was picturing something far more vicious!

Minster2012 · 18/12/2020 22:12

@Juno231 @Vil10 I'm on errrrr a couple of white wine spritzers then g&t number 3??? Homemade rhubarb gin & ginger mmmmm so if I don't make sense then blame the consultant nurse for being mean 😂

@Amy00 you have a dodgy ovary?? Eeek!! Are you gonna test next week? Ahhh if you light flow don't worry bout it but let's hope you have no flow! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

OP posts:
Amy00 · 18/12/2020 22:15

Random question for all - has anyone's OH got a fleshlight?

@Minster2012 yep apparently the one that ovulated and produced the "blighted ovum", before the CP, was my left and on the scan the consultant said it looked a bit weird and booked a follow up scan. Since then I've been aware of twinges there, little bit painful, that I wasn't aware of before, maybe all in my head or maybe it's busted... 😬

2020mission · 18/12/2020 22:29

@Amy00 I asked my husband once if he'd use one if he was single and his face screwed up. Imagine the fun moment afterwards rinsing that out under the tap 😂 so... why do you ask?? haha

2020mission · 18/12/2020 22:30

@Minster2012 I've ran out of soda water so I've upgraded to full white wine tonight with AF being here and all 😆 I'll be back to the spritzers soon 🥂
