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

@minster2012 never mind the tree, how did the de floofing your foof go? No more injuries? Also my Dad used to make those kind of reindeer 😍

Just been in to boots and FRER are buy one get second half price ! Don't know if that's just my local or everywhere. 😳

@Minster2012 love your display!! 😍

I know I'm late to the party and I have the whole of this thread to catch up with but had to reply quickly with a massive congratulations @lucyrp 🤗🤗 Super chuffed for you 😘

Thank you @notyetamumbuttrying and yes DH made the bigger one @Kirky658 after I grumpily bought rudolf last year and went "you could make that if you weren't being lazy!" So that's my wooden present!

Oh and @Kirky658 defloofing went well with no more injuries thank goodness! Ready for wooden anniversary dice wood action! Dice have gone down well....so to speak 🤪

@33Carr thank you so much! Baby dust to you🥰🥰

I did a FRER as @Juno231 requested and not quite a die stealer but almost!

@lucyrp Huge, huge, congrats!

I'm squinting @lucyrp can't quite see it
😉

@Sausage1990 ah lovely, you poor thing, that's just shitty. Absolutely understandable you're feeling empty but never apologise here beautiful lady xx we gotcha.

@DOB78 hold on hold on. You were married for 25 years? From what age to what age?! And I'm assuming you're 42 now? I'm trying to do the maths on that one but am stumped, and intrigued!

@InkyPaper this may bring tears to your eyes, but our dishwasher has been broken for 6 months 😂 I've just been too busy to buy a new one so wash the dishes by hand instead (go figure 🙄)

@Newbie0818 ooh your appointment sounds positive! Hoping you don't even need the ivf but great to have an action plan. And YES to telling your fam, a good idea.

@lucyrp oh holy fucker fuck!! Shut the front fucking door!!!!!! Yayyyy!! Just reached the photo of your test! Omggggg congrattts 🎉🎉💗💗💗💗💗
Haha the frer - hold up I just need to zoom in and squint a bit....... yep I think that's positive!! 😆🤣👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@Minster2012 your stick animals 😍 totally amazing. Disappointed to see your cane woven dog not there though, with added festive antlers?

Hubby's business Xmas do yesterday - lunch at a fancy joint on the coast and then stayed in a hotel for the night, kids at granny's 🙌🏼 but my tool of a OH got so boozed he passed out in our lush super king bed at 9pm 🙄 ffs. I had brought fancy matching knicker set and candles and everything in my suitcase. His loss.
Beach swim this morning then brekky overlooking the water, so can't complain! ☀️
Shark sirens went off while we were eating brekky and everyone had to get out of the water, so I'm glad I got my swim in early!! Haha 😬🦈🦈

I fucking love Christmas time! Xxxx

Shall we take a moment to appreciate the beaches of Western Australia.....

Oops I selected the wrong pic for the second one, but I don't know any of those people!

@Skip86 errrr DH's total loss there, rest sounds great....and shall we just take a minute to appreciate that dude you don't know??? (But happen to keep a photo of topless on your phone 🧐) I think he'd be the kind to appreciate your matching set of undies & candles when sharks are attacking others...I think the views in Western Auz are pretty good 😂👀

@Skip86 I wondered when you'd come on and spot it! Thank you 🥰🥰💓 yeah it's so hard to see isn't it god 😉 loving the views very jealous!!

@Minster2012 need a magnifying glass !

Beautiful @Skip86 whereabouts do you live again? I love the Australian coastline and sunsets! Was lucky to experience them on the west and east coast. So stunning 🤩

@skip86 those views arent too bad 😉🤣

@skip86 just did the maths myself it was actually 22years, just felt longer!!! met when I'd just turned 18 left him when I turned 40. Apologises for the confusion

Oh and the willow dog is in the garden...but there is last years willow duck joining the festive party with lights on under my wreath

@lucyrp huge congratulations! I thought that chart looked super promising - textbook triphasic! Definitely stop temping now though and relax. What lovely timing just before Christmas.

@Minster2012 love that duck!

@Minster2012 😂😂 I sweeear I didn't mean to take a photo of the topless dude 😝 he was the surf instructor who just got in the way! Bloody love all your diy dogs and ducks and wreaths and everything in between.
@DOB78 no apologies necessary! I was genuinely interested, like I thought perhaps you were from a different culture and got married at 15 or something 😳
@notyetamumbuttrying im in Perth!

@skip86 haha no just a situation that dragged on longer than was necessary! Your pics are amazing by the way, very jealous. I love the beach its my happy place ☺

@Skip86 I thought it was Perth! One of my fav memories of my trip. This was about 14 years ago now mind, so memories a bit sketchy, I just remember having the best time at some club and dancing on the table 😂
@Minster2012 love that duck 🦆

@paintfairy I've been taking 2000mg of EPO every cycle since march I think and they really helped my EWCM. Stop once you ovulate though.

@lucyrp thats a gorgeous line!

@amy2503 woop fingers crossed it turns up peak soon! Remember to test again today and not leave it until tomorrow in case your peak is today.

@Minster2012 definitely, I just feel like things could still go wrong with ivf etc and I'd rather have our parents there to help us through if needed, and dh feels the same. We know it's going to be bloody stressful and painful (well for me) so it'll be nice having a bubble around us.
Also, I might sound dim but how do I check a pm on here? (Using the app)

@lucyrp oh don't worry! We're all psyched for you 💕 you deserve this so much. Also, what's EPO?
And yes about the fertility apt, if in 3 months dh doesn't show an improvement they'll pop us through for ivf straight away x

@notyetamumbuttrying aww that's sweet. Forgive me if you've already said, but when do you start your ivf? X

@Skip86 thanks lovely, hopefully it'll work out.
Ahhh so annoying about dh! And shark sirens??!! That's intense! Also, I think your comment should have read "let's take a moment to admire the ripped men of Australia" 🙄
