TTC BUS 26 - Stifling chilli foofs with paprika pants & telling Flo 🧙🏻‍♀️she ain’t in our support bubble

[Minster2012]

Flo app telling you AF is due?? Femometer telling you ovulation was a different day? Is that line a high /low/peak or a pube on your OPK?
When TTC feels like a proper TWATFACE, we’ve got each other’s backs. We’ve had trolling TTC charts, f**k boy bodies and a few of us are giving up and handing our bodies to the fertility doctors instead. Maybe they can do a better job eh?

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, be it DTD, SMEP, syringe, IVF we don’t care 🥰

Don’t forget...
⁃ BORIS CAN’T PENETRATE OUR SUPPORT BUBBLE (urgh there’s a nasty image)
⁃ Pets, toys & accessories invited too, Rampant Rabbits 🐰, Fleshlights & dice
⁃ NOTHING IS TOO MUCH INFORMATION
⁃ We are all about the support

Story so far...

June 24 BFPs
July 11 BFPs
August 18 BFPs
Sep 4 BFPs
Oct 7 BFPs
Nov 7 BFPs

10 BFPs in Dec so far ....

@Minster2012 love the actual thread title! Thanks for driving us!

Taking my seat on the bus ☺️ thanks bus driver @Minster2012

Thanks for the new thread. Lurker here I am lol

@LaceyMermaid congratulations x

"Boris can't penetrate our support bubble" haha I love that! Although the image is stuff of nightmares 😂

Soooo ladies I think I need my MN pals this morning. I found our last night my closest friend (one of only 2 friends as I'm antisocial), who has been distancing herself for a while, and she said it's because of my OH. She can't stand him and how he is with me. I don't dispute it, he's a twat a lot of the time. But when I say I cried....I feel like I've lost my right arm. This woman has been through it all with me, seen me at my worst, knows EVERYTHING about me (good, bad and evil), all my joys and insecurities. Plus my mum is moving back home (to manchester from east of England) so all I have now is my children and my OH. And that's scary because I have no other outlet or identity outside of what I am to them 😔

In other news my charts this month are all over the shop. Apparently I've ovulated twice, no idea when I'm due AF and as usual my crappy internet cheapies are giving me what I assume are evaps. I give up this month!

Checking in for the ride 🥳 hoping for Christmas BFPs for those testing soon!! 🙊🎄

🥰

Can I join this one? On some of the other threads but think this is a good place for me too.
Age 30, TTC baby no.1 post-pill, cycle 1, currently 6DPO ☺️ (and already totally obsessing into the whole ttc journey - temping, OPKs, vitamins, the lot)

Marking my spot!! Thankyou for the new bus @Minster2012 Also going to reply to messages from the last thread on here..

@LaceyMermaid congratulations!! Lovely news❤️

@Juno231 so sorry for af showing up! Your charts really teased you this month!!d

@DKDK123 so sorry af came! I'm glad you're feeling okay about it though x

@RoRox3 welcome!

@Joanna1009 I'm so sorry for that situation, I know exactly how you feel, my ex (who was a horrendous person), and I knew he was but was scared to leave him because he'd always tell me if I was to ever leave he'd always find someone better (would always say he could go to my friend, who he'd slept with when me and him were seeing each other, I should've fucked off then), and then I would be on my own, none of my friends liked him, it got to the point where I'd dread seeing them in case they brought him up and I didn't want to speak about what a horrible person he was! I mean I know this is completely different for you because I can imagine your OH isn't that bad, and I was 17/18 at the time! Have you told your OH what has been said? I don't want this to come across as patronising at all lovely but have you ever considered joining like a group, like Pilates/the gym, they're such good places to meet people!!

@Emmgrem welcome!!x

Oh @Joanna1009 darling I'm sorry, I only have a very small circle of ACTUAL proper close friends I think a lot of grown ups do, did she say specifically why about OH then? Do you think she's just using it as an excuse? I've moved late in life & had to "find a new identity" and new friends & it's so daunting. But doable. With or without a baby. You can do it. 👊🏻how are you and OH?

@Emmgrem hey!! Welcome to the bus! Oh yes we are obsessed but also weird too, seven seas pills, way forward apparently 🙌🏻

@Vil10 thank you for sharing your experience. I actually had 2 super abusive relationships (one of them was a marriage) before I met my OH. He's got some serious issues and insecurities but I would never allow a man to suppress me in any way now. That may be an issue...I give zero lee-way these days which accounts for my constant moans about him in here!

In other news I had ONE gin with lemonade last night and this morning I felt like death. Awful nausea and headache. From one drink?! What a way to top off 2020, to end up intolerant to alcohol 😩😂

I'm here too!🥰

@Minster2012 Mind if I jump in the car and drive up to Hull for a hug and a breather with you?

You've all read my rants about my OH...she struggled hearing it. Plus she's had her own marriage breakdown (her choice) and has been working her ass off to support her kids. I've given myself a day to feel all the sad feelings, then I'm going to look forward from tonight.

How about that evil evap AGAIN! When do you think ovulation happened? Maybe my cycle has f%*#d up this month because I didn't take my 7 seas vits 🤷🏼‍♀️

Did IC and stark white. Could be joining u soon @juno231

Course not @Joanna1009 I do believe all those ppl cramming from the south up to Leeds were probs then on their way to ours for a special Minster healing hug, lord knows our village is suddenly full so word is out 👀🙏🏻Check your messages on the main site not app, I'm not a chart whizz but you know you are going to have to wait & test with other tests 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Katao 😂🤣get over here & talk to us properly

@LaceyMermaid congratulations!! Wow December is literally an Ad for seven seas 😍 can't wait to see who is next 🤣

@Minster2012 big congratulations on an excellent start to a new thread, there's definitely a writer in you so please get started with that blog/book 🙏

@Joanna1009 that's really sad, can she just not see you separately to him? Agree with @Vil10 good advice about ways to make friends with people as well, although I do understand, I have a few select friends and do not like to make new ones

Yay thanks for the new bus @Minster2012 taking a seat right with you girls the whole way!!

@BlondePotter thanks am I right in thinking you were on them and conceived too? (I’m getting confused with new usernames so sorry if not you)

The thought of Boris penetrating my bubble shudder

Happy new bus day! 🥳

Thanks for setting up the new bus @Minster2012!

Congratulations @laceymermaid!

Ok, if I don't get a BFP this month I'm definitely leaping on the seven seas tablets!!!

Welcome @Emmgrem 😊

Ok I'm here, right bus , phew 🤪
Loving the look of that 10 BFPs up there! Lets keep adding to it. Welcome @Emmgrem
Great intro @Minster2012 thanks for the new bus.

@Joanna1009 I'm sorry I'm going to be a little bit blunt here but you really don't paint a great picture of this guy! I know that's probably because you use here to vent but there are a lot of red flags and I think your bf saying that is a huge one. Ive been in her position. I have lost a very good friend because she married an ass and I couldn't watch it any longer. It not easy to watch someone you care about put themselves in that position and not want better for themselves. I'm sorry, I hope I haven't offended you.

@InkyPaper thank you - 🤞🏻 You won’t need them and you get your BFP soon!
Thank you to everyone who’s said congrats I hope I’ve said thank you to all of you 😊

@Katao you're correct in that I've used this safe space to vent about him being a twit. I'm too feisty to ever be repressed by him so I guess she'll have to accept my decision (of which I have full capacity to make) to be in a relationship that she wouldn't choose for herself 🤷🏼‍♀️

He comforted me last night and said how he's planning to address particular issues that she's picked up on, for my sake.
