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

Minster2012 · 20/12/2020 09:11

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

Story so far...

June 24 BFPs

Another sneaky @laceymermaid in at the end!

What is this pub thing you speak of? 🤔🤣 Seems like a distant memory.

@Juno231 never had the app! Problem solved. 🤣 I dont go shopping though either and I suspect that's where most of it comes from. There's nowhere else you can actually go!

Minster2012 · 20/12/2020 22:40

Erm yeah sorry, was having sex, did I miss anything??? Any more BFPS?? Seems to happen when I have sex?! 😋😆

Juno231 · 20/12/2020 23:34

@franklydear that made me laugh - spot on about the track and trace app! @notyetamumbuttrying @DKDK123 it's 10 days from exposure but they only told me today that I got exposed 4 days ago lol.

@paintfairy ha you say this but you have to spend more than 15 min with someone at less than 6ft for it to count! Now problem is... I def didn't see anyone this week?? För Wednesday especially I think I spent 11 min in an outdoor gin shop and I think that's where this is from!

InkyPaper · 20/12/2020 23:36

Just diving on quickly to say congratulations to @DOB78 and @Luna57! Loving all the Christmas BFPs!!

2020mission · 20/12/2020 23:46

@Minster2012 sex twice in one day? 😅 good going

@Juno231 that's a shame you've been told to isolate after being at an outdoor shop for just over ten minutes ☹️ I remember reading a while back some people were getting those isolation messages from next door neighbours phones that traced through walls 😑 are you due at work this week?

2alreadywantanother · 21/12/2020 07:19

Ah no @Juno231 think back to a few days ago, where u were??

Well I'm out. Have red staining this morning. I'm okay about it, just hope the hormones behave over xmas.

DKDK123 · 21/12/2020 07:48

I read that too @juno231 about people getting notified because their neighbour tested positive and it was picking up the app thru the walls. Might be worthwhile checking with your neighbours. I'm sure I read about a glitch last week too that told lots of people to isolate when they didn't need to and I'm sure it said if you were contacted within a certain time period to phone track and trace number for them to confirm if you have to isolate or if yours was a glitch. I cant remember where I read it but might be worth a Google to find the article just incase.

AHobbyaweek · 21/12/2020 07:51

@DOB78 congratulations. I know I'm late to the party but trying to catch up.

@Luna57 congratulations too. That sounds so exciting!

@Minster2012 I hate people that argue with people using things designed for people with disabilities. My mum had a blue badge when she had terminal cancer as she couldn't walk far and the people that had a go was unreal. She gave no shots though and would look them straight in the eye and say "I have terminal cancer." And then stay silent. They all looked horrified and walked off. It might have been her death stare too.

I have crawled out of my pit of despair now and planning the food shop for Christmas as wasn't going to have to buy any Christmas food. Planning on braving the shops tonight so I have a few days to get anything I can't get tonight.

amy2503 · 21/12/2020 07:55

Think I'm out this month ladies. Started to get the slight beginning of my usual dull ache. Not surprised though after all the mix ups this month. Feeling sad but coping ok. x

RoRox3 · 21/12/2020 08:00

Hey girls I'm tracking my ovulation with the opk tests. Last month I had 7 days of high but no peak. This cycle I have had 2 days of high reading then a low empty circle for 2 days. I haven't hit my peak this month again it seems? Has anyone been having same issues or notice they are going through the same? I'm getting worried there may be something wrong.

Minster2012 · 21/12/2020 08:13

Morning ladies,
Yup twice in one day @2020mission 😆boom! Back with a vengeance! Exercise done this morning, only a 15 mins when DS watching tv but will do another HITT later with DH

@Juno231 I'd def check on that, but otherwise it's an early finish for Xmas right? But I know it goes over Xmas, what were your plans?

@2alreadywantanother noooooooo 😭😭😭🤬sending the wine and hugs to you stupid Flo. She didn't read the title bitch

@AHobbyaweek yes it's awful isn't it ☹️. Glad you are feeling better, big hugs lovely it can still be a good Xmas ❤️

@amy2503 you aren't out til Flo comes

@RoRox3 I haven't ever had a static on mine but I don't actually ovulate so that's why, you nay have missed the peak, it could have been a really short one in the evening. Long as you've been DTD that's what matters xx

Morning ladies!

Wasn't very active on here yesterday, I spent the day cleaning before my sister and her OH came round for a steak and drinks, the sambuca came out🤢 don't feel too bad this morning and I have all my pre Christmas pamper appointments today too so I'm excited!!

@DOB78 congratulations!!

@amy2503 you're not out until af arrives🤞🏼

@RoRox3 it might be possible that you just missed your peak, it could've been at night maybe? As long as you've been bonking you'll be covered x

amy2503 · 21/12/2020 08:31

@Minster2012 @Vil10 feeling like I always do every month 😥 I don't really get cramps, just this dull ache every month that's really uncomfortable 😔😔😔xxx

DOB78 · 21/12/2020 08:55

@vil10 @Ahobbyaweek @Inkypaper Thankyou so much.
@notamumbuttrying I'm a massive believer in the power of the Universe, makes me sound like a crackpot once I get started especially when I've had a drink.......

Luna57 · 21/12/2020 08:56

@notyetamumbuttrying done the FRER and can assume this is my BFP, I’m 11dpo!!! I don’t know how I’m gonna keep this secret for 4 more days. Aww tier 4!!! I think our pubs close Christmas Eve. We’re going into lockdown on Boxing Day for 6 weeks.

@Minster2012 Prosecco coming your way 1st class delivery! Every Christmas Day I am the drunken disgrace in the family, might have to google how to act drunk on shloer so family don’t suspect you are with child.

Juno231 · 21/12/2020 09:26

@DKDK123 @2020mission you know what I was actually thinking it could be the neighbours! I rarely see them but I'll make sure to ask next time. And I'll look into that glitch!

Franklydear · 21/12/2020 09:44

Morning ladies, ds woke up at 6 in the morning when dh went to work, so I let him stay on my bed in the dark and we slept till now, this never used to work! Got a million deliveries from the family this morning, all the Xmas food treats: turron, mazapan and stuff like that, and then eye hospital in the afternoon.
Cd 28 and nothing happening, @amy2503 over the last week I had all sort of pains and aches, was convinced a few days ago af was coming, you never know....I don’t want to get my hopes to high either, but is not looking bad

amy2503 · 21/12/2020 09:46

@Franklydear did the pains feel like your period does when it usually comes? Thanks lovely for being so supporting.

Does anyone on here who's been pregnant/currently pregnant and tried for a while have any success stories? I'm on month 10 now and it's breaking my heart. xxxx

BlondePotter · 21/12/2020 09:48

Yay @Luna57 thought it could be a strong line after those IC lines! Congratulations 😁

Franklydear · 21/12/2020 09:53

@amy2503 lots, I myself got an early loss last month after a year trying and now I am late again, and our lovely @lucyrp, for me is the happiest story
The pains about 3 days ago felt exactly like it, I was expecting it overnight, and here I am still waiting, might even have to test soon

amy2503 · 21/12/2020 09:59

@Franklydear thank you lovely lady. 💛💛 I really hope this is your month xxxxxxxx

Vil10 · 21/12/2020 10:00

@amy2503 when is af due?xx

@Luna57 congratulations!!

@Franklydear I'm getting excited for you!!

Well ladies I'm out, started spotting a little bit this morning so af will probably arrive on Wednesday, knew it was coming from the pains, I've had my cry on Saturday night and now it's just one of those things, at least I can enjoy Christmas and get pissed, here's to another month, roll on month 9 cycle 8, hopefully 2021 will be better to me!

Minster2012 · 21/12/2020 10:01

Whoop whoop @Luna57 that's great!! Congrats!

And @amy2503 I'm sure @Missgoldilocks got her BFP after 16 cycles? Chin up xxx

@Franklydear I think you know the answer to that, are you gonna test today or tomorrow

OP posts:
Minster2012 · 21/12/2020 10:03

@Vil10 last night sounds great though least you weren't sick in your hands on the Sambuca like @lucyrp though hold on she's pregnant now so maybe we should all do that???? I'm on Xmas pampering tomorrow and weds so I'm excited bout to that too, what are you getting done?

OP posts:
Vil10 · 21/12/2020 10:06

@Minster2012 maybe that's the secret?? Sack pizza and Oreo!! Isn't it exciting, oh the little things! I've got nails brows hair and lashes today!! I'm not entirely sure what nails to get but my apps at 11 so best decide quickly! What are you having done?x
