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

Story so far...

June 24 BFPs

Another sneaky @laceymermaid in at the end!

@DKDK123 thanks hun really hope your DS is alright.

@Juno231 wow I had never heard of those before! Haha 😂 you learn something new everyday.

HollieL567 · 01/01/2021 20:36

What are the tablets everyone has been speaking about by the way? Xx

DKDK123 · 01/01/2021 20:45

Just popping on to give a quick update they DS is fine, they think it's just swelling causing the deformed shaped nose, didn't xray as theres nothing they can do even if it is broken. He was a bit drowsy tho so may have mild concussion so just to stay with him and wake him every 2hours throughout the night. DH is working tomorrow so he's going to stay up till midnight then I'll take over so im hopping into bed right now to grab a few hours sleep before then. Of course it would happen the day DS has been up since 4.15am 😴 Suppose it's good prep for when we have another to remind me how brutal the sleep deprivation during the newborn stage is again 🙈

Florence13 · 01/01/2021 21:00

@DKDK123 aww glad he is fine, hope all goes well overnight bless you.

JustMouse · 01/01/2021 21:06

@Minster2012 - No, was pregnacare and C0Q10 for me.

Well, we was due back to work on Monday, but now back to a rota again, so just 2 days a week for me for the time being. My head of school, wants to make the CEO and HR ladies aware because of covid risk assessments. I had hoped to have my 12 week scan before anyone else knew. But I did have a private 8 week scan and all was with a strong heartbeat. So just keeping my fingers crossed that everything stays ok, because I don't want everyone knowing if something was to go wrong.

I told my parents last night, they were very shocked but over the moon.

Minster2012 · 01/01/2021 21:12

So pleased DS is ok @DKDK123 and yeah course it would be the 4.15am day! All ok now though...hold on, you got your peak right?? You need some dick?? 🍆

@HollieL567 sorry for the witch arriving, you mean the seven seas "trying for a baby" tablets, instead of just folic acid and glad you got the Pom juice. See only a matter of time!

@clolo if they said feb then I wouldn't worry bout funding!

@notyetamumbuttrying I realise I didn't answer your question bout dates, I haven't heard anything more & they aren't there to answer those questions until Monday so will phone bank, pay our £1635 bill & leave a message then. I doubt I will find out more on Monday but hopefully next week. I need to start the northisterone Monday so I need to find out how long for!

Hello everyone, hope you all had a lovely New Year's Eve/Day 😊

@Minster2012 your post was the best! You're brilliant! ❤️

@DKDK123 glad your son is OK! That is definitely not a fun way to spend New Year's Day, fingers crossed he's back to his usual self and feeling much better soon!

Anyone else noticing a huge increase of baby announcements today?! Feel like everywhere I turn there's another positive pregnancy test or cute kids holding signs to say there's a new baby coming.

AF is now a week late so I'm guessing I'm in for another long cycle 🙄 I got a BFN on Christmas Eve, but I actually suspect I may have only ovulated like a couple of days ago going by ewcm. So who knows?! I'll test again in a fortnight if she still doesn't show.

Minster2012 · 01/01/2021 21:49

@Florence13 hold on, why the bloody hell WOULD you have heard of those birthie stick knee things??? Prob weirder that @Juno231 has??? Surely we missed a trick asking that? 🤔😬 she has gnomes in her garden too you know. Just sayin. 👀

@JustMouse that's fab about your scan and your parents 🙌🏻such good news!

@Catherinettc children need heads of steel. For when you accidentally drop them they bounce 👌🏻

Right ladies, I'm off to sleep.
we are close to 1000 comments DO NOT go to 1000 without the new thread😳

Ps @paintfairy north of Whitby....ooooo I know that area and the area around Whitby well! Where? 👀

Dollybird89 · 01/01/2021 22:17

I love Whitby and Scarborough... wanna go soon as im not too far away in durham lol. Is there a specific seven seas one that you took @lucyrp ? I may have missed it lol I'm off shopping tomorrow so can hopefully get some... i have the memory of a sieve... what was the juice also lol ???

Juno231 · 01/01/2021 22:26

@paintfairy ah yes mine is end of the month too so people were always broke, doing dry Jan and on diets! My current company has a slightly earlier payday than I'm used to though so at least now my birthday falls on my own payday 😅.

@Florence13 @Minster2012 it's no worse than the vajankle at least!

notyetamumbuttrying · 01/01/2021 22:34

@clolo yeah you'll need to sign paperwork for funding. Thats what my feb appointment is for and to test my amh and Dh to get his repeat Sa. Perhaps you'll sign it at the same appointment and still start right away. @Juno231 I'm doing dry jan. Have done it before so hopefully can do it again. Will help with my weight loss too. There's a thread on here I've joined for motivation. Shall I link it?
@DKDK123 glad your son is fine, what a relief!
@Minster2012 not too much longer to wait then 🤞🏾
See you in the morning ladies, should be more with it after a good nights sleep and the alcohol all soaked up!

AHobbyaweek · 01/01/2021 23:00

@DKDK123 glad your DS is ok. Sorry for the lack of sleep too!!

So I cast on some socks today for DD that will have big sis on them and now worried I have jynxed a sticky bean and worried. Will be POAS more tomorrow to hopefully see it getting darker.

Franklydear · 01/01/2021 23:43

@AHobbyaweek how do you knit your socks?4 needles or round? Would you share a pattern? Thinking I might want to try....
@DKDK123 at least is not serious, with a ds on the spectrum, we often wait for a knock from ss, never comes though...
Checking the countdown, don’t want to get on @Minster2012 bad books😢🙈

LB20xx · 02/01/2021 00:14

@Minster2012 ooh can I claim the award for first banging of the new year? 🙋🏻‍♀️🍆

Hope you all had a nice chilled New Year's Day,
@DKDK123 glad your ds is okay, and tonight isn't too rough on you 🙏🏼

Minster2012 · 02/01/2021 08:02

@LB20xx 👑crown can be yours lovely!

We are countdown all ok @Franklydear you are still faves list don't worry! New bus is parked up & ready in waiting

@AHobbyaweek until you reach the writing they are just socks right?

@Juno231 😂🤣I guess so! When's your birthday?

@Dollybird89 these tablets lovely

www.boots.com/seven-seas-trying-for-a-baby-vitamins-28-one-a-day-pills-10141707

& the juice is grapefruit juice to help ewcm (a few of us drank Tropicana golden grapefruit juice) up to OV and pomegranate juice (I drink Pom juice) which is meant to help a fluffy womb lining small glass a day throughout cycle. Both don't taste great 😂

Florence13 · 02/01/2021 08:18

@Juno231 well that’s true haha

@Minster2012 aww fab looking forward to seeing the new title

@AHobbyaweek exactly they are just socks until you get the the writing.

@DKDK123 hope your night hasn’t been to rough!

Joanna1009 · 02/01/2021 08:33

@Minster2012 Happy New Year! Here's my chart and BFP's from 0:12 yesterday and today. Unless someone is a chart whisperer, I'm thinking my chart doesn't mean anything 🤷🏼‍♀️ no triphasic pattern, barely a biphasic pattern! Thanks for everything x

Morning everyone.

Just on a wee break from work.
How's everybody doing?

Work has been manic but nearly done for a couple days off.

So got my peak New Year's Eve had masses amount of EWCM that day too but felt like ovulation pain all day yesterday.
@Juno231 how's my chart looking I thought I ovulated yesterday but chart think might show New Year's Eve as ovulation? Anyways just need to hope I have done enough.
Jobs for today are Christmas tree down and clean out my daughters Turtle 🐢 tank that she promised if we got her them she would take care of them but yet to see it!!

What's all your plans today?
Have a good day xx

Any space for a new girl? This looks like my sort of thread. @Minster2012 you are a big of a mn legend! (Is that arse luck enough to join the crew) ? 😉

AHobbyaweek · 02/01/2021 08:38

@Franklydear I do them in the round on circular needles using magic loop. First ones I did I did one at a time now I do two at a time as otherwise I don't bother with the second sock Blush
I like knitty nattys video series with cuff down socks for my first one on YouTube. Now I have adapted it so I do that pattern but with a fish no lips kiss heel as it is much easier.

AHobbyaweek · 02/01/2021 08:45

Thanks all, yes you are right they are just socks for now. Line is getting darker though so heading in the right direction for now.
Excuse the nails!

@AHobbyaweek congratulations lovely news xx

Minster2012 · 02/01/2021 08:49

And BOOM @Joanna1009 comes in with the first BFP of the New Year 💞💓🎉🎊🥰🙌🏻🥳💥take that 2021 at 0:21, is that witchcraft?!! And what the flip is a triawhatever chart anyways and clearly who needs one?!

@Idreamof2more yes you can my dear but pray tell me I really should have checked for screenshotted threads of "there's a madwoman who has put her butt up" what is this legend of which you speak?! We are about to hop onto a new bus so good timing tell us about yourself 🥰

@DJmum83 more turtles! Did your daughters meet @Justanothercyster's turtle? I feel a turtle race coming on the future when we are all pregnant and fat we can race turtles for fun & place bets on winners. Over zoom obs 🤔🤣

OP posts:
Juno231 · 02/01/2021 08:55

@DJmum83 too early to tell but could be today potentially! You're quite the hot person aren't you, my temp today was 36.18 😂

@Minster2012 23rd! It's embarrassingly what the 23/1 in my name stands for.

@Idreamof2more welcome! Tell us more - which DC will this be and how long have you been trying :). I also want to know more about what mischief minster gets up to elsewhere to be an MN legend 😁.

@notyetamumbuttrying yes please link! The app i got tells you how many calories (and money) you're saving by not drinking so that's motivational as I weighed in at my heaviest ever this week lol. I need to lose 2 stone!!

@Joanna1009 ah congrats! That's one ugly chart but in its defence you've not stuck to the same temping time! What cycle was this is in the end for you?
