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??

@lucyrp look at that line!!! Still super happy for you! Was in Sainsbury's before and saw the cutest Peter rabbit romper for my friends newborn and I thought of you!! So much baby dust I love it❤️

@Skip86 "just a surf instructor who happened to photo bomb my picture" yaaaaaa right whatever! As she scrolls through all her snaps of surf dudes on her phone trying BOT to attach them all to MN

@Newbie0818 I'm afraid you have to login via safari it's silly can't see on app it's very annoying and yup sooo stressful (but great!) and you may need help for appointments anyways

@amy2503 whoop whoop for your OPKs getting higher get on that 🍆🍆girl xx

OMG @lucyrp wtf!!! I am so so pleased for you-it's always lovely when someone on here gets a BFP but when it's a proper old timer/OG it's even better 🥰🥰🥰

What is your due date? Assuming August sometime too? Hugest congratulations girl xxxxxx

@Juno231 thank you! 🥰

@Newbie0818 EPO is evening primrose oil! So excited for you that things have started rolling ! I'm going to have to ring the hospital about my appointment 😳🙉

@Clairey844 awww thank you! My reaction was also wtf !!! When I looked at the test 🤣 my due date would be 21st august 🥰 5 days after my birthday 😳🙄xxxx

@Minster2012 I'm going to see if I can try do it the next 3 nights... do you think that will cover me ? xx

@lucyrp just chiming in about the seven seas tablets, no you can't keep taking them as I assume they have vitamin A which isn't suitable when pregnant. Switch to a pregnancy multivitamin.

Your frer is a thing of beauty 🥰

@Skip86 six months?!?!?😱 the thought of being without my dishwasher for six months strikes fear into my heart! DH loathes washing up more than anything so the agreement is that he'll cook and I wash up. I never thought I'd feel so desperate to cook again 😂

@Minster2012 love your Rudolph! Very cute😊

@amy2503 I think that's what the sperm meets the egg suggests anyway so a good plan

I totally just missed a legit opportunity for mulled wine at the food market, gutted. But just had a nice afternoon getting my Xmas presents from DH, we basically just went to Barbour & bought lovely slippers with a bow on & a hood for my wax coat, yep def country bumpkin right here 🙌🏻but I am wearing my bright yellow coat & a lovely red jumper with rainbow hearts on so is that better??? Got about 5 dresses to try on at home for Xmas day dress 👗

DH didn't even complain at queuing outside shops, much. Ok a bit but it was 1.5 WHOLE HOURS. 😂

Omg I was wondering how I could have missed 10 pages in a day but THIS IS HOW!!!
@lucyrp this is incredible news!!! Definitely those tablets helping regulate your cycle I think 🥳🥳🥳 honestly over the moon for you and it's such a strong line that I think it's a sticky 🙌🤞💛
Amazing news

@newbie0818 that seems a sensible decision, good to have their support and understanding, and as you said, stops any hints xx

@SarahTTC2020 yesss everyone's gone a bit mad 🙉 I think so too as it was only 39 days long! Fingers crossed for me 🥰💓 thank you !

OMGoshhhh @lucyrp yes yes yes! Our toddlers can play at the Royal Welsh in 2022 😆🤭
I would definitely carry on with the gym and walking, everything to keep stress at bay and get those good feeling hormones floating around. In regards to RHR mine plummeted! Like went below 50, but everything OK. I also stopped with bbt straight away, anxiety is no good to a developing embryo. (although I don't think its possible not to worry 🙈).

@Kirky658 Also my rhr didn't follow much of a pattern, think training impacts is quite a bit. I also trained a lot, I know you posted agges ago about doing too much, but as long as your period is regular its ok. I did loads of bike racing when ttc, then an olympic triathlon at 9 weeks and 100mile bike ride at 13 weeks. If your body is used to it its totally fine- until it gets painful like running for me atm 😭

@Minster2012 ah I'll log on and see. Not sure how much help they can be with apts as his parents are 2hrs away and mine are in Dubai 😂

@blodyn91 thanks lovely, wow that's amazing!!! I've set myself a 25 mile per week target so 100 miles for December, so a 10k tomorrow to finish the week off 😁 interestingly on the RHR, it's gone up from 43 yesterday to 46 today.. I am 12 dpo, convinced I'm out, so will be keen to see what happens when AF arrives xx

Yes I mean when all the OGs get BFPs we'll go through a 🚌in a day 😂@SarahTTC2020 I thought that!!

@blodyn91 I thought it best @lucyrp ask you bout the whole gym thing but then again we aren't all iron women 😂 OMG you can have play dates 🙌🏻

Just casually laid here in the bath having spent an hour doing naughty things & drinking Prosecco 🥂cheers ladies!
The dice said "suck, garden (too cold), 69, (✅doggy, ✅) tease✅ nipples ✅" btw 😂

DH now gone to prepare the hasslebacks for with our lobsters (Aldi) that we are making into pies
🥰

@blodyn91 I wrote a huge message back to you and thought I sent it but I must not have ' that would be cute ! Okay would you decrease the amount of sessions or just stick to whatever you've been doing.?? That's interesting to hear !💓

@Kirky658 did your FRERs arrive? 👀

@minster2012 what a mega evening!!! We just DTD and I managed to orgasm today and woohooo it was immense
Also not me on the FRERs, I have a drawerful of tests just never miss AF to sue them 🤣

@Kirky658 don’t sue them, it’s not their fault af came

@franklydear that's my dodgy thumb, I meant use 🤣🤣🤣

Ahhhh goddamn it @Kirky658 sorry it's @DJmum83 who is waiting on the FRERS sorry, blame that on the Prosecco and organs sorry 🤦🏼‍♀️(or dodgy finger) @Franklydear 😂😂

@minster2012 no worries, hahahaha
Hubs and I just spent the last hour cooking chicken kung po together and dancing round the kitchen to some music, felt good to be silly for a change ❤️

@Kirky658 how long is your LP usually? Mine was only 11, so when I see people at 12dpo I immediately start thinking its good! Thats a nice challenge that, also lucky that your OH runs with you, mine bikes with me.

@lucyrp I've acctually kept up my home gym stuff, usually 30 mins long. Im following a pregnancy safe workout. Also following a few people on Instagram who have good videos up. Im concious of my abs separating, so had to stop with planks, sit ups and press ups. If you look up 'abs coning during pregnancy' that shows you what your abs should not look like. I think keeping up strength workouts is really important to make labour easier (if possible) but definitely the recovery after quicker. But also for mental health ☺️

@blodyn91 I'm not doing anything ab or core concentrated at the moment I've just been doing a few upper body and few lower body sessions and then one or two cardio which for me is either high incline walks or swimming so all of those seem okay to keep up!🙋🏼‍♀️

@blodyn91 usually about 13 to 14 days, think it is settling back down to normal after having the mirena out and my endo surgery in June. Yeah bless him he's so much quicker than me, but on a Sunday we do one together. Trying out a new, but hilly, route tomorrow so keeps it interesting too! X
