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

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

10 BFPs in Dec so far ....
Another sneaky @laceymermaid in at the end!

@DKDK123 fw next week and both on holiday, fantastic timing!

Minster2012 · 26/12/2020 12:16

We are trying to go over to in laws to go for a walk with them, they usually host a big Boxing Day thing for about 50 ppl with a walk to the pub then back to theirs for a buffet but nothing this year except the walk. Except the fact that I found the pigs in blankets but lost my car keys. FFS. But hangover gone now, whoop whoop!

DH just pointed out we've have morning sex 3 days in a row. Must be Christmas or something 😜

@Minster2012 get in there girl!!

@Franklydear meant to say you are most lovely to, it is so nice to have somewhere to talk where you get so much support.

AHobbyaweek · 26/12/2020 13:27

Morning all. No hangover here but did drink quite a bit. Making boa buns now.
We did have some sneaking dining room table sex last night when everyone had gone to bed lol.

Franklydear · 26/12/2020 14:16

Today's lunch will consist of pigs in blankets and Chinese snacks, prawn toast, spring rolls type of thing at around 2.30 cos that's how we roll

DOB78 · 26/12/2020 15:34

Wow its hard to keep up with is group!! Hope you all had a lovely Christmas xx

Juno231 · 26/12/2020 16:19

Merry Christmas all! I've been looking at healthy recipes all day as I'm excited to get back on the diet ASAP 😅

Was a bit down last night when it dawned on me that I only have 3 cycles left to have a 2021 baby 😒. How shitty is that.

2020mission · 26/12/2020 17:03

Aww no @Juno231 now I'm thinking that 😂 I briefly stopped in at my mum and dads to pass over presents distanced and for a quick drink yesterday before we headed home. I'm actually a bit glad we couldn't spend too long there as I'm always worried my mum will mention babies etc. She did mention her friend's daughter is due any day. I always have to subtly try and move the conversation on to something else. Thankfully she never outright asks us when we are going to TTC. It's a surprise she doesn't as we are in our 30s and have been married for almost 2 years. I think maybe with all that's happened this year she assumed we aren't trying right now.

Let's all try and stay positive and surely a few of us will be getting our BFPs in the next month or so 🤞 💕

paintfairy · 26/12/2020 17:25

@Juno231 I was just thinking- what are you on about?! There's a whole year yet. Then i realised what you meant! God that is miserable. 😫 Thanks for bringing it to my attention.... 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Tournesol90 · 26/12/2020 18:27

This is my kinda thread! Taking a seat on the bus, if that's alright. You have brightened up a gloomy Boxing Day, I must say. 30 y/o and have only been TTC for 4 months (first time), but naively assumed all would happen immediately, as several friends and family members have recently conceived 1st time of trying. Yesterday yet another friend announced their Christmas pregnancy minutes after a BFN for me. Obviously over the moon for them but secretly sobbing in the bath...you know how it is...
Reading this thread has put a smile on my face so thank you - humour always works! Nice to meet you all anyway 😘

Minster2012 · 26/12/2020 18:35

@Juno231 ive thought that, that I was due Oct 20 now time running out 😔but then again there is still time & we could be due same time again for '21
@paintfairy @2020mission thankfully some ppl have done tact clearly

@Tournesol90 welcome!! Have a meme! Of course yep spend your whole life avoiding getting pregnant or thinking it's dead easy but nope. They lie. 🤣or at least not for some of us 😂, def welcome to the bus and hope it's a short ride. For the new year I think we might do an updated list of "things you need to do to get pregnant" cos we have had a few pregnancies off the thread! So watch this space lovely

@Tournesol90 hello! Welcome to the loony bus.

Tournesol90 · 26/12/2020 18:55

@Minster2012 hearty thanks for the warm welcome! I know right? All those years of pulling out 😂
Sounds fab - already heading to Boots tomorrow to pick up these magical sounding Seven Seas!

Clairey844 · 26/12/2020 19:03

@Tournesol90 welcome! Get those seven seas on the go and once @Minster2012 fills you in on the secrets of conception (sex on a pouffe, oreos and no enjoying the sex ha ha) you'll be good to go!!

Happy boxing day lovely ladies, just put LO to bed and going to open some of the mountain of chocolate we have been gifted and devour it with a big mug of decaf tea...oh the good life 😂😂

Xx

Franklydear · 26/12/2020 19:24

I have a confession, we got so much Xmas stuff sent in from Spain, (we’ve eaten about a third) that I haven’t even got out the tubs, chocolate boxes, Xmas puddings and panettone yet, I don’t think I can diet through January 😳
@Tournesol90 welcome , we brighten up most days, 😂 no, really, we’re funny
@Minster2012 this is the way (can’t find a mandalorian emoji)

notyetamumbuttrying · 26/12/2020 19:28

Hey ladies, belated Christmas wishes to you all! Hope you had a lovely day! Nice to see some newbies still, welcome 😌
We'll definitely see those bfp's in the coming months! I'm hoping I'll sneak in with a 2021 baby @Juno231 if I get to start ivf in March n it works first time 🤞🏾
FW starts today so hoping for a bonkfest this week 🤩

Minster2012 · 26/12/2020 19:49

@Tournesol90 def on the seven seas, if you have a pouffe get on it & have sex & do you drink??

@Clairey844 & @Franklydear I was being sooooo good on the food (not drink, we ignore that) until i walked past the cheese earlier & the box of quality street. Oooooppppps. I need to get DS to bed. Then drink some more I think with a lovely film. Or maybe a decaf. Hmmm

Though I've just realised ladies looking at Femometer that if we were actually TTC in the traditional way then oh shit we could have been in with a chance. CD12, we've DTD 3 days in
a row in the morning & prior to that every other day. All bare back. On the month we are meant to be condoms again. Ah well. 🙈🤦🏼‍♀️blame the booze I guess. Oops

Ladies we can't write off a 2021 baby when we aren't even in 2021 yet FFS @Juno231 do f make me throw you off a bus you used to drive for being a miserable bitch 😉😂

OP posts:
Juno231 · 26/12/2020 21:40

@Minster2012 hahaha I'm sorry but you did make me laugh just there. Let's just think of it as extra motivation 😅. Lay off the plastic tupperware and soy products bitches! ❤️ (note to self, pick up seven seas tablets)

@Tournesol90 our very own sunflower - welcome!

notyetamumbuttrying · 26/12/2020 21:45

@Minster2012 ooh that would be wonderful if all works for the both of us!!
And 🤭 @Juno231 it made me laugh too! 😆

Minster2012 · 26/12/2020 21:53

@Juno231 oh god the Tupperware, 🤦🏼‍♀️yep I will make sure that goes back on the list! And def smoke bird poo. Will collate of anyone fancies adding to it I will start making a list 😝

Tournesol90 · 26/12/2020 22:18

Thanks for all the welcomes!
@Minster2012 okay - duly noted. Will collect the Seven Seas tomorrow and hit the pouffe hard next FW. Drink? Guilty... Caffeine? More so... Thinking of laying off it (the booze I mean) in the new year though, as is DB. Anyone else?
