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?🤔

@2020mission let's hope so!😩

@Florence13 I think they have started helping already but although they're anti sickness they don't stop the nausea so I still feel sick and feel like I'm going to be sick but I can't actually be sick 😩🤣

@Sausage1990 my midwife actually said that their threshold for sending ladies to hospital is much higher at the moment obviously because of Covid and said that it doesn't matter so much if I can't eat as long as I can keep fluids down and suggested I drank dioralyte sachets. I've actually managed to keep toast down today and a Mars ice cream 🤣 but having lost my appetite its hard to eat too. The relationship between my stomach and mouth isn't good, I'm hungry but put anything near my mouth and i wretch 😩 no don't be sorry you're not over stepping ! Il give you a message if I need any help xx

Florence13 · 02/01/2021 16:34

@Sausage1990 I feel the same I feel like I would have to see how I feel at the time but I’m not massively into sharing on social media. And I think knowing how I’ve felt watching people announce their pregnancies has definitely made me more aware of being thoughtful if I did choose to post something if I ever get pregnant.

Florence13 · 02/01/2021 16:35

@lucyrp oh glad they are sort of helping but sorry to hear the nausea remains persistent that is really pants!

notyetamumbuttrying · 02/01/2021 16:41

@Sausage1990 defo, I think they're so funny!
@clolo ours came down today too. Have also had similar thoughts 🥺!
@lucyrp aw babe, not too much longer to hold on for the sickness to let up and also get to that all important scan. Exciting on both fronts!

lucyrp · 02/01/2021 16:43

@Florence13 pants is a good word to describe it 🤣 being constipated but also having diarrhoea when you can finally go is no fun eithrt 🤣

@notyetamumbuttrying my first appointment is on Monday and I'm going to try and see if I can get a dating scan through the nhs for some reassurance because I'm so worried il get to the 12 week one and there will be no heartbeat 😩

Franklydear · 02/01/2021 16:43

@paintfairy we only had dogs in the houses with a bit of land, in a flat is just cruel ( I’ve are not that posh as it sounds, we have some inherit property, think 6 generations in the family, belongs legally to half a dozen people, stupid inheritance law)
@lucyrp take help earlier rather than later
Ds had a fall in the bathroom yesterday, cos he was jumping in there, as you do, he complains about pain in his ribs, a bit red but no brush as such, he is moving well, and moaning but not constantly crying, any medical head to know if we should worry before I turn to dr google?

blackcurrantqueen · 02/01/2021 16:44

@paintfairy oh my gosh he is a DARLING! I want him 😍😍😍

@notyetamumbuttrying I don't even think I follow them they're all on that pissing 'discover' page. I need to keep away from it for now I think!!!

@lucyrp you absolutely shouldn't feel bad announcing, you deserve that moment 💞💞💞

@InkyPaper I am desperate for some snow! Not jealous at all!!!

With my little girl I didn't really do a pregnancy announcement as such just posted a picture and happened to have a belly in the May, she was born at the start of July so I think people were very shocked 😂

Idreamof2more · 02/01/2021 16:46

@Minster2012 oh he would play for hours but only with me! I get told what to say. I’m always poppy the troll that’s naughty and he tells me what to do! It gets PAINFUL. I have a poppy voice and everything. He won’t play alone for 1 minute never! X

lucyrp · 02/01/2021 16:47

@blackcurrantqueen aww thank you 💓💓 I think I only want to do an announcement because I didn't do one with DS as I was so young and felt like I would be judged so I actually hid my pregnancy to family and friends until I was about 6 months and only announced I'd had a baby when he was actually born. Didn't even post a photo just said " me and .... would like to announce the birth of our little boy ....."

DJmum83 · 02/01/2021 16:54

@Juno231 I take it back hubby managed 🎂 😂😂 4 nights in a row for us that's not happened in about 6 years.
I actually was looking at other peoples graphs and my temps are quite high I'm just one hot lady 😂😂 I wish.

New bus new year @Minster2012 thank you for being such a good bus driver.

Many congratulations to the BFP that I missed on the last bus.

And welcome to all the newbies.
Really hope 2021 is our year xxx

Vil10 · 02/01/2021 17:02

@Florence13 I don't know who I think I am once I've had a drink!!

@lucyrp I've seen a few of hers too!! I love watching stuff like that😂 sorry you're still feeling rough but hopefully it'll ease soon!! Also I've always said to OH that I'll be completely honest to people about how long it took us because you never hear people say how long it took, only the people who took like a month or two!

@DKDK123 glad your DS is okay!!

@Minster2012 that's so true!! You can't have a fresh start on a Friday!! Chocolate and sweets tonight before the diet starts Monday!

@KateColx heyyy!! How're you??

Just been for a lovely snowy walk with the dogs, settling down now, fajitas for tea, then lots of Christmas chocolate, sweets and hot choc!

Franklydear · 02/01/2021 17:02

I am not going to make an announcement, didn’t with ds, but sm wasn’t so big, dh was shocked when I told him, he was planing to, now he doesn’t know what to do, but neither of us puts anything in Facebook , he doesn’t use any others, I only read on them, so.... my opinion, if you know me you’ll know, if you don’t see me, I’ll tell you, if neither of those, you don’t need to know

Sausage1990 · 02/01/2021 17:05

@lucyrp awww yeah it's OK to want to post something... To want to share your happy news. You do you hun 💕
And yes fluids is the priority but if you are struggling please let me know xx

notyetamumbuttrying · 02/01/2021 17:17

@lucyrp ahh well I hope you do! Please don't worry though, must be so hard not to 💐
@blackcurrantqueen I NEVER go on that page for that reason 🙈😂 hope you don't have long to wait for no2! I'm trying for no1.
@Vil10 sounds like a perfect day and evening coming up! Dh is in the kitchen now whipping up a risotto 😋

Mrsbear1122 · 02/01/2021 17:55

@clolo @notyetamumbuttrying me too 🙁 all Christmas decors packed away...feels bare. Hoping this Christmas we will all be putting it up with either a bump or a baby by the side 😊

About the announcements, I'm the type that would do one on ig/FB lol was going to do one using my dogs, but well CP happened (X2!). When I get that chance, I think I would definitely mentioned abit about the journey, the losses, the difficulty etc. As no one really does talk about, but probably many are going through it.

notyetamumbuttrying · 02/01/2021 17:59

@Mrsbear1122 that would be the dream! And in a new house for me. Our flat is on the market and got reduced Boxing Day 😬🤞🏾
Good for you with the announcement! With the dogs sound cute too 🥰

@clolo now it's identifying 😂🤣but we don't care 💓

@Vil10 I shouldn't be the person that knocks you off the wagon already. Was just saying! Quick @Juno231 help! Get her back on!

@Idreamof2more our DS has to have an adult playing WITH him constantly. Hence why I'm listing sporadically today. DH back now he's back to velcro with him.

Marking my spot to keep an eye out for all your bfp’s. Congratulations on the 2 recent ones. Amazing news. Can’t wait to see many more to come x

notyetamumbuttrying · 02/01/2021 18:29

@clolo so true! I just assumed I'd be like all my friends and do a post with the scan pic and that be that, but now I think I'll say it was through ivf. Might make others who are quietly going through it, feel better, but who knows until it happens. I may feel differently if/when the time comes.

2020mission · 02/01/2021 18:29

Actually I was thinking and remembered I've seen the odd Facebook friends who didn't post anything about pregnancy and then suddenly there's a photo of the couple with a baby or toddler and I think somethings off, why did they hide it? Is it theirs? I think it would be fine if they didn't post anything usually as it's then just a couple who doesn't share on social media like @Franklydear said, but these were people that do post things like holiday photos etc 🤔 so it can come across odd to not post an announcement too!

Katao · 02/01/2021 18:32

Aw @lucyrp I'm sorry you are struggling. I'm not going to talk about my own experience because I can't go there, it's on the 'don't even think about it' list while ttc 🙈 but I sympathise. Fluids is the priority, try to find something you can tolerate and just stick with that and sip regularly even if you aren'tkeepingmuch down. Same with food, if you can find something to nibble on then just go with it. Hope the tablets help. And hope it does pass soon.

Florence13 · 02/01/2021 18:34

Talking of dogs my two were trying to be far too helpful in taking the Christmas decs down 😂

lucyrp · 02/01/2021 18:39

@Vil10 yeah definitely ! I'm always really open about it when I speak to people if it comes into conversation too.

@Sausage1990 thank you I will 💓xx

@notyetamumbuttrying I feel like everything is going fine, but thag can be the case even if it isn't so it's got to be worrying !

@Katao tbh I'd completely forgotten how bad it was last time for me but my god I've been reminded now 😩🤣 today I've been much better and managed half a punnet of grapes 😂
