TTC bus 29...
Oh my goodness to say we are a chatty group is an understatement most times but that’s great cos it’s not all about TTC here, anything goes, we now have a bus with a beautiful panoramic roof seat so a few ppl can pop up on top heads up and out into wind to gulp in the non TTC air but still hold on to us & know where we are...like our pups that come with us with ears flapping in the wind our beloved ladies may have one flap flying in the wind...”watch out for the left outer flap”...someone once shouted to their OH...that might set the tone here nicely.

Get it?! No?! Sometimes nor do we...🙄the chat, the deed, the sperm, the egg, the fact that we aren’t pregnant yet after shagging twelfty millions times a month forever. But we are here for each other, to chat shit, to help each other out the pits or wallow within the pits, for all the highs and lows.

And if you see mention of my blog then blame these guys they made me do it...#shamelessplug

@2020mission that's a good point!! He isn't very emotional but he certainly has his own ways of showing me support!x

@Justanothercyster that soup looks and sounds lovely!!x

@Minster2012 I know imagine!! I didn't actually ask where they live normally! We did think of that as an option, we currently live in OH's house that he's had for 7 years now so we want to rent this out, so could easily move in there as soon as!

@notyetamumbuttrying that's what OH said, he said "well at least we're getting closer" 😂

@paintfairy lovely flowers!!x

@Kirky658 we have snow too!!

@Gem176 what is it with men like that!! He's very proud and I know that's not a bad thing but he thinks that showing his emotions is a bad thing and think he's being soft for doing so! Sometimes it is annoying when trying to get out of him what's wrong but when he does little gestures like he has today I don't complain x

notyetamumbuttrying · 20/01/2021 23:00

@Vil10 ahh well it is true though! Hopefully next month is now the one 🤞🏾
Jealous of the snow. Just turns to slush in London!

Kirky658 · 21/01/2021 07:06

@minster2012 @vil10 it's now turned into a slushy icy mess. No running for me this morning, shame...

Justanothercyster · 21/01/2021 07:26

@notyetamumbuttrying I know! They need to pull their finger out, she's just taking the piss! And Sam is suck a knob because at the beginning he was all like "people have the wrong impression of me because of how good looking I am" - you👏🏼have👏🏼presented👏🏼yourself👏🏼that👏🏼way👏🏼
@Minster2012 I don't really find any of the guys particularly attractive- but drawn to Mick because of the silliness haha.

Minster2012 · 21/01/2021 07:59

Morning!!
Ah I was thinking of the wrong person @notyetamumbuttrying I meant the country one with the blonde is that Nick??? 🤔the farmer??

@DJmum83 i really don't envy you guys homeschooling it sounds so tough and that even more so, catch up soon xx

@Vil10 it sounds perfect I'd def go a bit lower then, good luck with the meeting!

Where is this snow?! @Kirky658 only awful rain and wind here 😩 the worse weather to try walk dogs with a toddler FFS

@Justanothercyster @notyetamumbuttrying I hate Sam. I don't think he's attractive. He's. Just. A. Knob

Gem176 · 21/01/2021 08:17

@notyetamumbuttrying I'm good thanks 😊 how are you? Mick is with Jessica, mark is with Ning. I'm absolutely hooked on mafs 🙈 planning on catching up today! Just over 5 weeks now and patiently waiting on the 12 week point so may as well binge some reality tv 😂

@Vil10 it's infuriating at times especially when I'm quite an emotional person and very open. In our years together I've seen him get emotional twice. He cried when his dad died and when his pet dog of 16 years died and that's it! Both times he was kind of raging at himself for crying too 🙄 I, on the other hand, cry at adverts on the tv 🤦🏻‍♀️ I'd love a wee peek into the future to see if he will get emotional if we get all the way to baby arriving.

Told SiL yesterday, she cried and was absolutely delighted! She's not actually my SiL she's my partners SiL. Married to his oldest brother who is almost 20 years older than OH. OH lost his mum at 17 and SiL has looked out for him since then like an extra child of her own so I think this baby will mean the world to her as she doesn't have any grandchildren yet and already dotes on my dd. Wish I could fast forward time and reach that 12 week point now. I thought the tww was bad, this is worse!

Minster2012 · 21/01/2021 08:27

@Gem176 that's sooooo lovely so pleasded for you! So who is the country farmer with the blonde? That's the one I'm on about! I'm also loving cyrell and Nick but they need to communicate for gods sake! I've just started to watch it, slyly whilst DS watching paw patrol 🤣😂bad mummy here whilst eating breakfast 😚we've read a few books so it's quiet time before trying to drag him out for walking dogs 😬why are they all called similar???? @notyetamumbuttrying @Justanothercyster argh

@Sausage1990 sorry to hear you had such a rough day I hope today is better with nothing else being poked.

@Justanothercyster that soup looks amazing!

@Gem176 so chuffed your SIL was so lovely about your news.

@Vil10 hope all goes well with your meeting today.

Gem176 · 21/01/2021 08:42

Thanks @Minster2012 mick is the country farmer, he's one of my favourites as he's just so down to Earth with a really good sense of humour! OH says he's the only normal one and he'd go for a pint with him 😂 he pretend complains about the shitty tv I watch but not so secretly watches it with me 🤣
We have rain and wind here too and I'm going to have to go take the pooch for a walk at some point, can see it far enough!

Minster2012 · 21/01/2021 08:55

Yeah totally I like mick @Gem176 I think he's class and I REALLY wanted to see his best mans speech, why didn't they show it?? My DH is the same though he visibly squirms in his seat for that atm 🤣

@Gem176 awwwww that's lovely how chuffed she was ❤️

amy2503 · 21/01/2021 09:03

Hey ladies just realised it's a new bus!!!!! It's 6 days until my period and I'm pretty sure I'm getting those classic feelings again already. I swear they are getting earlier and earlier in my cycle! Trying to be positive as we are (hopefully) moving house in March if our references are accepted so I'm trying to tell myself I don't want to be pregnant and moving (although I know deep down I still want it more than anything 🤣🤣)

Franklydear · 21/01/2021 09:05

Right ladies, on my way to work, wish me luck, bossboy saw my message cos he updated the system, but didn't respond, I expect him in a mood today, but maybe I am lucky and he'll take the day off

Florence13 · 21/01/2021 09:16

@Franklydear good luck! Really hoping he takes the day off for you.

Missgoldilocks · 21/01/2021 09:18

Hello lovely ladies how are we all doing? :)
I had my 12 week scan yesterday and was measuring at 13 weeks 4 days ❤️ everything looks healthy and he has his dad's side profile 😂
Sooo I asked the sonographer could we see if you knew the sex or not and he said the baby was looking advanced so he might be able to tell, he went to the genitals and it was pretty clear to see that it was a willy!!
Guess he gets it from his well endowed father 😂😂🤣 the guy said he'd be very surprised if it wasn't a boy 😅😁 so team blue again! I've git better names for boys anyway hehe xx

Vil10 · 21/01/2021 09:21

@notyetamumbuttrying I'd like to think so!! It's gone slushy and horrible here now too!

@Kirky658 @Minster2012 it's horrible here now as well, half slushy and then it's hailing too!

@Minster2012 the worst they can say is no and if they do we can offer more!

@Gem176 oh god twice?? To be honest we've not even hit that mark yet, I've never seen him cry or well up or get emotional, I'm emotional at certain things, if I'm on I cry at anything but usually I'm just a crier at films! He always laughs if I cry at a film though😂 aww yess I bet he will!! Or at least well up a tad?? So glad SIL is so excited for you, it'll be lovely for her!

@Florence13 Thankyou so much xx

@Missgoldilocks so glad your scan went well and baby is healthy!! And congratulations on a baby boy💙

Franklydear · 21/01/2021 09:24

@Missgoldilocks fantastic news!
On the weather front, I got sunshine 🌻, it is windy though

blackcurrantqueen · 21/01/2021 09:32

Morning girlies!!!

How are we all doing?

@Missgoldilocks that is lovely news 🥰 amazing they could guess the gender already!
@Franklydear good luck today hope bossboy is absent

@Vil10 good luck today 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
@Kirky658 I want snow we have still had NONE, really windy and miserable here today
@DJmum83 yay for covid vaccine !!

Ok guys what is MAFS and do I need to watch it? I must have missed this convo!

@Minster2012 I've been mixing my pom and grapefruit together it tastes so much better!

Florence13 · 21/01/2021 09:41

@Missgoldilocks aww glad to hear all is well and your having a boy! Super happy for you ☺️

Kirky658 · 21/01/2021 09:42

@missgoldilocks yayyyyy that's fantastic news, congrats ❤️👶

@Vil10 you must be fairly close to us at a guess if you had snow we are just outside the Peak District, Staffs side? No hail here though sunny blue skies but cold.

@gem176 I'm with you on this being worse than the TWW 🤣

@amy2503 exciting, let's hope its some good news for you hun! Lovely about the house too. We moved into our first house last year 5 days after I'd had major abdominal surgery lol!

Juno231 · 21/01/2021 10:05

@blackcurrantqueen I'm glad you asked cause I'm sat here thinking what the heck is MAFS

@missgoldilocks aaah congrats to the baby boy! amazing that they could spot it so early on Grin

@Gem176 that's super sweet of SIL! My OH is the same - he's stone cold. Emotionally distant parents, boarding school and army will do that to a man I guess lol. From what I gather he last cried in 2008 when his grandad passed away.

CD5 here and I'm still bleeding I think! I've gone from 2 day periods 6 months ago to this. Not sure I approve...

DKDK123 · 21/01/2021 10:24

How exciting @Missgoldilocks so glad all went well with the scan, go team blue 💙

Right ladies you've clearly advertised seven seas too well. Amazon are sold out, boots are sold out, none in tesco ebay are wanting about £15 a packet!? WTF looks like I'm switching back to pregnacare at least they're in stock 😂 Thought I'd best keep taking the vitamins till we make a decision, but word of the magic of the seven seas must have gotten out.

Gem176 · 21/01/2021 10:56

@Florence13 @Kirky658 thank you, must admit it was really nice to see how happy she was.

@Minster2012 I'm guessing by her families reaction it was a bit rooood 😂

@amy2503 moving when pregnant is the best! You don't have to do any lifting 😂

@Franklydear good luck with bossboy, hope he's off for the rest of the week!

@Missgoldilocks how exciting 💙

@Vil10 last time before these was 20 years ago when his mum died, I'm sure if it hadn't been for his dad and the dog then I'd still be waiting on seeing any emotion 🙄 hmm I'm not sure, he jokes about not actually being there for baby's arrival 🤬 hormonal rage kicks in when he does that 😂 I'll be a c-section again so last night he was telling me "ach I won't even need to take the day off work if it's coming out through the sun roof, no effort required" he thinks he's hilarious, I want to cave his head in 👊🏻 in bed he then tells me he's joking and when's the first appointment so he can take the day off... he drives me nuts sometimes 😂

@Kirky658 it actually is, trying to break it down into smaller chunks. 6 weeks is coming and that's one good point to get passed. Then onto the next 6 week wait!! Should be able to break that up with appointments 🤞🏻

@Juno231 no army or boarding school but I'd say his dad wasn't the most loving of parents, his mum was an absolute sweetheart by all accounts and he lost her at 17 so could explain a bit of his lack of emotions 🤷🏻‍♀️ SiL is absolutely lovely and I'm so happy she now knows!

amy2503 · 21/01/2021 11:00

@Gem176 true! Pretty sure I'm not though, got my usual period pains arriving right on cue so very much doubt it xxx
