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

Another sneaky @laceymermaid in at the end!

still time for Christmas BFPs and for @Minster2012 to get thrown off Mumsnet 🤪

My mil is in hospital with a fever that won't come down, they are doing test, she has hardly any defenses, so is being very shielded, we haven't seen her since last Xmas, she is also very depressed at the thought of this Xmas, she normally host between 25-40 fir lunch in Xmas and new year... A sibling is home with fil, taken some lunch and make sure he eats it, awaiting news 😢

@LaceyMermaid that's nice to know 😊
@LB20xx I'm sure you'll get that bfp soon!
@Minster2012 very on point memes 👌🏾
@Franklydear so sorry, that doesn't sound good. Is it suspected Covid? Xx

@notyetamumbuttrying no idea, could be anything, her immune system has been a worry for several years now, and she is 84, so hope not covid, but there's a high rate of transmission in my region, so the hospital is not the best place to be

Taking my seat, quietly at the back. Thanks Driver

Just marking my spot so I don't lose you all🤍💕🤍💕🤍

Hey @DOB78 how are you?!

@Franklydear it's best place for her then, sending love

Can someone help me out. Are the easy @ home HCG tests notorious for an evap line? I’m 10dpo I don’t even know why I decided to test. The lines are pink on both tests. The second one I had to squeeze out a tiny bit of pee cos I threw the other tests pee down the toilet cos I didn’t expect to see a line lol. Should I just wait and use a FRER tomorrow morning?

@Franklydear are they going to test her for it? I hope she pulls through!

@Luna57 looks positive to me! 🥳 do a frer in the morning anyway, congrats 🎉

Hi ladies- can't believe it's time for another bus already 🤣🤣 oh @Luna57 how exciting.
@LaceyMermaid congrats! xxx

@notyetamumbuttrying not quite sure what is happening, perils of being in a different country, but my aunty is with her and she is a just retired hospital nurse, so she knows her stuff and all the staff, it is her hospital

@Franklydear hope MIL is ok. Never a nice time to be sick but Christmas it just makes it all the more worse fingers crossed for a speedy recovery.

@notyetamumbuttrying thank you, I’m nervous it’s not real. I’ll check tomorrow morning with a first pee. Just dropped OH off at the pub so can’t even ask him his opinion. 10dpo is very early so not crossing anything just yet.

@Minster2012 I'm all good thanks so much to catch up on, its hard to keep up with this bus. Now 16dpo cramping like mad going to test tmora if the red bitch doesn't show up today. I'm usually POAS like a woman possessed but I'm so nervous if I get BFN I'm going to speak to my GP coz something ain't right down there.

Theres so much going on here I'm sorry I can't keep up with everyone's journeys but Congrats to the BFPers and Good Luck to those still hoping 💜

@Joanna1009 at least you know not to be treat like that again, that's all that matters! I'm glad he recognises his behaviour and is willing to work on himself!X

@KateColx hey lovely!! Sorry to hear your plans have been ruined!! But yayy to 2 weeks off!! How's bump?X

@Franklydear so sorry to hear about your MIL, sending hugs x

@Franklydear so sorry to hear about your mil hoping she makes a speedy recovery but understand it must be such an anxious time if she is already higher risk.

@Luna57 they look positive to me definitely get the frer out tomorrow.

Hi all, just checking in to mark my place and say hello!

I'm sorry I've not been very good at responding but please know I'm following along in the background and sending lots of positive thoughts and well wishes to you all no matter where you are in your cycle/journey!

Congrats to @LaceyMermaid and @Luna57 along with anyone else I've missed!

I'm 6 weeks tomorrow and had a tiny bleed on Thursday, but all other signs going strong (sore nipples like you wouldn't believe and I'm currently nibbling on crackers and trying to convince myself I don't feel sick!) So I'm hopeful all is well. Scan booked for the morning of Christmas Eve so I don't have long to find out one way or the other!

Hope that anyone affected by the Tier/Christmas announcements yesterday is coping ok and managing to stay positive ❤️

@DOB78 16dpo that sounds very promising!! 🤞🏻for tomorrow morning then that AF doesn't arrive and you get to POAS

@Luna57 looks good, a short bus ride yes? You just hopped on didn't you? Def get that FRER out looking very good 🙌🏻especially for 10dpo!

Well ladies we had a short trip to a farm shop today & lovely dog walk & and after AF been here ALL week DH & I in the car were like "hmmm very horny", DS falls asleep in car...us look at each other, shall we nip inside... me "that's why jumper dresses were invented? How quick can you cum?" 😂😝one very quick but satisfying quickie later literally in the hallway normality is resumed 😆

@Minster2012 I think I just got my BFP!! Been on a 4hr car journey so that's long enough to hold a decent wee POAS and there's a little squinter. I'll try and add a picture but I'm not tech savvy

@Franklydear I'm glad someone's with her!
@Luna57 best of luck for tomorrow! Btw jel of your hubby going to the pub! Tier 4 here 😩
@Minster2012 that sounds so much fun!!
@DOB78 ooh congrats my dear! Christmas bus is doing well so far!

@Minster2012. 😲
Mil update, coming home now, covid negative, just a viral infection but with her low defenses everything is a hurdle, but relieved, bil and sil at home, hopefully they will stay a bit, plenty of room,my aunty might prefer to stay herself, as a trained nurse, and sil has a 5 and a 2 year old boys, it might be too much of a racket

@DOB78 oh wow, magic Christmas bus

@notamumbuttrying Thanks I'm amazed!!
@franklydear Thank you so much
Have a dilemma do I tell OH now or surprise him Christmas day?

Can't help there @DOB78, my DH demands to know the second I know, even if I could help myself....

Had about an hour child free to wrap all Xmas presents, they've gone to see the Xmas star, Jupiter and Saturn meet in space, from our perspective, hasn't happened for 800 years plus shooting stars out, it's freezing, so they're coming back now

Ohh yay @DOB78 🙌 glad to see more happy news around here.

Is anyone else feeling quite miserable this weekend? I've reached the point where I don't feel like celebrating Christmas or new year at all. It's just my husband and me in our wee flat and with us both having worked from home all year and seeing almost no one, it's going to feel like just any other day now 😔 we'll still swap presents and the tree is up but otherwise I think I'm done with it. 2021 can't come sooner.

I hope the rest of you are feeling more positive than me. For those of you who have little ones already, I'm sure it will still be a lovely holiday as it's so magical for them.
