It’s a New Year TTC bitches and of course it’s time for a new bus...

2020 was a bit of a TWATFACE for us
2021...is surely EXACTLY the number of babies we are owed by now.

We’ve read up on what we need to do to get pregnant, if you haven’t, see last bus or read my hotly anticipated blog and join us.

We are here, we are ready, so get your tickets for the bus, grab your seat, your roadie & your snacks cos I’ve sent out the memo to the stalks- bring us our babies!

Story so far...

June 24 BFPs
July 11 BFPs
August 18 BFPs
Sep 4 BFPs
Oct 7 BFPs
Nov 7 BFPs
Dec 14 BFPs
2 sneaky ones just before New Year!

2 BFP already for jan!

So what’s everyone’s New Years resolutions then? Who is gonna get the first BFP of 2021?
And what should be the title of my new blog?🤔

@Minster2012 @Katao @paintfairy I am LOLing way too hard at this distressed pineapple situation in the kitchen trying to make broccoli salad 😂😂🤣😂

Florence13 · 07/01/2021 10:18

Just popped on to catch up and you girls have had me wetting myself 😂 with the pineapple distress situation.

Katao · 07/01/2021 10:19

@Skip86 😂 we are not very coherent this morning but at least we are entertaining!

Katao · 07/01/2021 10:21

Ps welcome @Wondergirl1111 and yes we can guarantee a fun ride 😉

Minster2012 · 07/01/2021 10:31

[quote Minster2012]**@Katao* & @Sausage1990* it's pineapple juice for ewcm (I struggle on that) and I just had a spare one & seeing as we are using condone again it doesn't hurt & pomegranate juice my clinic recommends all the way through as it's just full of antioxidants & good for blood flow, you only need a small glass in lead up to OV but then around 200/250ml but yeah the Pom one is about £3.70/£4 here AND tastes like ass. Sparkling water helps?? Or I've had it in a smoothie. But my dad was recommended it too after his heart surgery so I guess it's good. That combined with gentle lower body workout they said to help me try boost blow flow to my womb 🤷‍♀️[/quote]
Bloody hell im ALL over the place this morning distress shag, so do we know what pineapple juice does?? Do you stick a pineapple up your foof?? Does that make a baby?? Why do they not teach you this on Sex Ed??
I've had many a distress shag & I think I need one now AND reread my message in quotes AND I say about BLOW FLOW not blood flow!!

Anyone fancy a bus drivers job??

However. I'm even worse now as just taken DS to MIL so we can do our IVF call & I can go get tablets & it minus 4 here, sheet ice on the roads & we caught up with an ambulance blue lights having to go slow on the country roads. NEENAH DS said "mummy I can see AMBOOLANCE" and sure enough we come across a car upside down with police on their tummies at the drivers windows as the ambulance joins them waves us on & closes the road. Cue me bursting into tears & giving MIL a lecture on pulling harnesses tight as she's notorious for not. Can I blame the hormones??? All of having 4x4's doesn't matter.

@Minster2012 I believe @blodyn91 did something with a pineapple core the month she got her BFP ?!😂🤣

Minster2012 · 07/01/2021 10:40

Yes it's eat a whole pineapple core and all! @lucyrp and also pineapples are a symbol of hope in the IVF world. I mean clearly there is no hope for us mind you cos I'm mental 🤪😜

notyetamumbuttrying · 07/01/2021 10:45

@Minster2012 eek you sound like you need a good lie down and de stress shag and then a pineapple I think! 🤪 bless you though, bit of an ordeal this morning. Hope the call goes well x

Wondergirl1111 · 07/01/2021 10:47

@katao thank you! And it certainly is looking like a fun ride already with you girls! What's all this talk about pineapples?! God I'm such a newbie it's like a whole new world and I clearly have a lot to learn!

DOB78 · 07/01/2021 10:50

@skip86 nope no🍆 for me last night or this morning. I'm so disappointed he's just not understanding how limited we are and now he wants to know why I've got a face on😠.
@lucyrp Hahaha OHs Dad was a milkman so his mum tells him the same!!!
Not sure what our amazon driver looks like........

Florence13 · 07/01/2021 10:57

@Minster2012 haha 😂 oh no sorry to hear your having a rubbish time this morning. Really hope your appointment goes well.

Dollybird89 · 07/01/2021 10:59

@minster2012 I'm gonna start calling you spongebob lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Still no af yet. Using just the last week of the 4 week period of technically be on CD 32 now and 19dpo (I think) had a few minor cramps and bowels have been all over the place getting occasional nausea and tiredness. I'm on 40000micrograms of vit d a week atm and taking iron supplements and folic acid and good old pom juice. Not testing till next week as only got cheap eBay ones until I get paid mon. I'm trying to just expect af as I can't get my mind excited or I'd just be setting myself up for being sad again. I'd settle for a decent cycle this time round lol

Vil10 · 07/01/2021 10:59

@Franklydear oh I wish I would have a dream about all of you and your little babies to be!!

@Skip86 tell you what, if I get my BFP this cycle, that will be some scary shit😂

@Minster2012 not a sex dream but I would bloody love one of those!! Been dead horny last few days but haven't been able to DTD because of my sciatica, it's eased off today though so might be able to manage a spoon fuck! I got upset last night worrying about this scan and my OH usually doesn't know how to react with people crying but he was so good bless just kept telling me he loves me to bits and whatever it is I always have him and he'll look after me and we'll deal with it together, and I just wanted to jump straight on his sausage after that😂

@lucyrp omgg maybe pregnancy dreams do come true??? That's so weirdddd!! I love stories like that! I'm still so happy for your BFP😂

@Clairey844 it would definitely be one to tell the children that's for sure!!x

Juno231 · 07/01/2021 11:03

@Wondergirl1111 it was meant to be grapefruit juice. If you're struggling with EWCM then either taking evening primrose oil in your follicular phase or drinking grapefruit juice daily can really help with ewcm production :)

Juno231 · 07/01/2021 11:12

3 DPO, FF has confirmed ovulation @DJmum83 how are you doing? You're in the implantation window now right?

@lucyrp ha I've done quite a few cycles with eating pineapple core but alas I'm still here

Hi @Juno231 5dpo so we are TWW buddies.
I have been working constantly this week but off today and tomorrow and back on at weekend. I'm full of spots hardly ever get spots and extreme tiredness past couple days. But I just have a feeling it's not happened this month as I'm cramping quite bad and mega mega crabbit (hubby is staying out my way) and that's how I get week before AF, so I'm pretty sure this time next week AF will be here.

It's absolutely freezing here -4 but no snow just frost and ice.

Sorry I have not caught up with everybody's posts I have tried but there's too many.

@Minster2012 hope IVF call goes ok today.

And everybody else hope your all doing ok xxx

blackcurrantqueen · 07/01/2021 11:59

So to be clear... to get pregnant I need distressed pineapple shags?

@Minster2012 oh god that is bloody horrible, I'd have cried too and I'm usually one with emotions of steel. Think of the plus side - at least police and ambulance were already on their way!
Let us know how the appt goes !!

@DOB78 can you find a book to make him read or something? Like the importance of sex 😂

So I took my own test this morning at home because curiosity killed the cat, and strongest line yet. The bleeding seems to have slowed / stopped and this morning I was SICK. Like properly sick and I am never ever sick.
My heart still says not to get excited because I don't think this one will stick either but until these bloods tonight I'm going to maintain a bit of hope 🤞🏼

Juno231 · 07/01/2021 12:07

@blackcurrantqueen that line sounds really promising, hoping the hcg has gone up!

@DJmum83 you're far too early to be out and you know it! You haven't even had a chance to have a go at implantation yet so whatever you're feeling is just progesterone and not at all related to any potential BFN/BFP. Just a reminder! I'm hoping it's your month xx

Skip86 · 07/01/2021 12:16

@DOB78 oh no!! 😭 Hold up does that mean no sex in all of fertile week for you this time around? Have you had a good sit down chat to help him understand cycle timeframes etc, and how it is making you feel each time? Sorry love, I can completely understand why you'd be frustrated.

@Minster2012 omg. That sounds horrendous! I'd be crying too! Hope everyone was ok..

@blackcurrantqueen ooh that really does sound promising 🤞🏼 totally get why you'd not want to get too excited, but I'm gunning for you! 😘

In case anyone has been wondering, my broccoli salad was sensational.

Justanothercyster · 07/01/2021 12:19

So guy text me yesterday saying he hopes it was ok sharing their news with us the other night, blah blah. Think it was obvious something was wrong with us, gah. I just responded saying sorry we seemed off and that we'd explain one day and then went on to say congrats again. Bleh.

@Dollybird89 I haven't tested in nearly a year but an actual First Response is good.

@blackcurrantqueen thank you x
Oh god you're really going through it, sending hugs x

@Vil10 it really does! My "announcement" is going to be really long at this point to make sure all my emotions are covered 😂

@notyetamumbuttrying gah so many!

@Clairey844 That's really helpful, thank you! Exactly what I was feeling. I'm not so bad now, we've done a list of the many things we do have and are thankful for which helped.

@Skip86 thank you x

@Minster2012 omg what a way to start the day! Hope you're ok x

DJmum83 · 07/01/2021 12:25

@Juno231 I know your right, just having a down, crabbit shitty day.
Really hating my work I work when hubby off he works when I'm off. Just missing actually having any time together.
But positives I have a job. I'm needing a kick up the backside today 😂😂
Thanks @Juno231 needed to hear that.
I really hope it's our month.
I hope 2021 brings every in this group their BFP XX

Joanna1009 · 07/01/2021 12:42

Ok I'm going to stop testing now. I've used my FRER's, and all my internet cheapies and I'm happy the line's darkening.

In the meantime I have a 3 year old home today with a fever. He's had calpol and now has the zoomies and is climbing the cat tree, but no more temp 🤦🏼‍♀️😂 a 7 year old asking me for help every 2 mins with her homework, and 2 teens. Eldest is studying hard (GCSE year but what does that even mean anymore), and other is pretending to work upstairs but I can hear him yelling to his friends playing Fortshite.

Oh and I'm back to back zoom meetings with work too. And apparently I have to feed the children too? It's a requirement? 😂 if I make it I'll post again tomorrow

Had a bit of a twinge in my right hip for a while but then it got stronger and it dawned on me ovulation pain! Ran and did an opk and look at this bad boy!! 😂 I'm already picking out names 😂 although for all my talk of going all out this cycle we haven't done great 🙈 think we peaked to soon and then nothing the last couple of days so need to get on it!

@blackcurrantqueen oh really hoping for you lovey x

@Justanothercyster at least he had the decency to text. I'm sure it was one of those things where he wanted to claw the words back as soon as he said them.
