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

@blackcurrantqueen Thankyou! The meetings tonight when I get home from work so I'll let you all know!

@Kirky658 I'm in Lancashire! So now sure how far away that is from you? Oh I wish it was like that here!

@amy2503 moving might be a blessing, it might make you not think of the TTC stress!

@Gem176 hahaha your OH sounds very very similar to mine!! Very much a wind up and joker? Nothings ever serious with him, but that's also a bonus sometimes!

Af is still really light today, only lost the tiniest bit on a pad so far, wouldn't mind it staying this way, but we know now that I've said that it'll change!

amy2503 · 21/01/2021 11:08

@Vil10 that's my thinking. I don't feel I'm settled here either. I'm hoping if we get the house, I'll feel like it's a family home for keeps and it will make life easier. I might be mad though lol

Kirky658 · 21/01/2021 11:09

@gem176 yeah deffo breaking it up is the way to go I just keep telling myself, 2 weeks today you get to see "little peppercorn" as DH and I have taken to calling little bub 🤣

@Vil10 not too far then! About an hour or so up to Lancashire from here but I cover the whole of the North West normally for my job so I'm up that way a fair bit 😁

Missgoldilocks · 21/01/2021 11:49

Thanks girls 😊 xxx

Minster2012 · 21/01/2021 11:59

@Missgoldilocks wow congratulations!! That's fantastic news and a well endowed boy, moons would complain at that 🤣😂❤️🙌🏻 amazing news and ladies in the future will thank you! It reminds me one of our friends have a boy with THE BIGGEST BALL SACK it's hilarious but now they worry he will get bullied cos it's not his dick it's just his balls 😝I say all the better for impregnating ladies with in the future 🤷‍♀️

@blackcurrantqueen that's what I used to do and it tastes better yes! Damn it I forgot to buy more Pom juice yesterday shit. Def watch MAFS . Compulsively shit viewing

@Franklydear how are you & DS feeling today?

@amy2503 that's great news on the house, exciting stuff! Something to look forwards to is great! 🙌🏻

@Juno231 mine was a 5 day period too I looked back on mine this week it's weird isn't it??! Married at first sight, on E4! Complete trash tv but I love it, my mind turns off with trash tv!

We've cleared everywhere out of seven seas 🤣😂@DKDK123 damn it! Do you want me to find some up here & send you some???

@Gem176 you make me laugh so much!! God the 6 week wait it's always waiting isn't it!!

I managed to get DS out in the wind & rain, none of us were very impressed but dogs walked so all ok we can hide now!

I am so so so annoyed!!! Just chased doctors again as still no call from midwife, they said I wasn't on her list to call? I asked if I could be put on the list and she said no, they don't do the midwifes appts she does her own so basically she will call me when she's ready?! Does that sound right?! They've now passed her a message apparently but God knows if I will get a response xx

notyetamumbuttrying · 21/01/2021 12:41

@Justanothercyster haha 😆 you've nailed it with Sam! 👌🏾
@Minster2012 oh sorry I think I'm wrong! Mick is the farmer boy and nicks with Ming, I think 🤔 lol! He is nice yeah, is it weird that I fancy him more now with the shit hair and Tash 😂 Sam is defo not attractive and a mahoosive knob!!
Ah just scrolled to @Gem176 confirming, cheers chick! Get you some binging girlie!! Hopefully these weeks will fly by 🤞🏾 lovely reaction! I'm ok thanks, just waiting around for my feb appointment so we can get cracking on all things ivf.
@Minster2012 and lol to Michael's shirt but he's still my fav in terms of hotness although that pic is not doing anything for him 😂
@Missgoldilocks wonderful news darlin, so pleased for you!! Xx
@Vil10 oh boo to the slush now!
Whistle stop catch up again, busy bee today! Mwah 😗

blackcurrantqueen · 21/01/2021 12:42

@Minster2012 but what Is MAFS??? 😂

paintfairy · 21/01/2021 12:51

@blackcurrantqueen married at first sight

paintfairy · 21/01/2021 12:53

@Kirky658 so you aren't on the list. But you can't ask to go on the list. So how do you get on the bloody list then? 🤔 No it doesn't sound right.
@Missgoldilocks I can't believe they could see already! Congratulations! 💙

Kirky658 · 21/01/2021 12:56

@paintfairy I am so confused. Its noted down I am pregnant apparently but she will contact me when she's ready! When I asked the receptionist what the normal protocol when you get pregnant is she said I honestly don't know... So yano that's helpful. I might ring again tomorrow and see if I get someone useful!!

Minster2012 · 21/01/2021 13:02

@blackcurrantqueen sorry I said it later for @Juno231 too, married at first sight on E4, highly trash tv for my mind to turn off!

@Kirky658 that sounds shit. Sorry darling but hugs

Gem176 · 21/01/2021 13:21

@Kirky658 have you to self refer to the midwife? I found the number for my local community midwives and self referred x

Katao · 21/01/2021 13:29

Catching up! @Missgoldilocks aw great news! Glad the scan went well and you got an early answer about the gender 😃 have you all boys already?

2020mission · 21/01/2021 14:01

Hey all, as this is my first month tracking BBT, I'm looking for some of you knowledgable ladies to have a glance and let me know if you think I've ovulated based on it? I didn't manage to DTD until this morning this cycle so I'm gutted as I think I might have missed my chance this month. I got a high OPK today and temperature jump this morning. What am I doing ovulating before CD 10 if it is? 😂

Katao · 21/01/2021 14:05

Loving all the married at first talkchat, I'm totally hooked. Completely agree sam is a nob! Mick is a good laugh, I could live with him. I kind of like cam too, something sweet about him. I feel like Bronson would be lovely if he wasn't saddled with Ines 😂

Still no af and due today. I've been trying to keep busy to stop myself obsessing.

@Vil10 has af been light since it started? Is it definitely af? I don't mean to mess with your head but if its lighter and earlier than usual and you had a faint line then maybe implantation bleeding? I'm sorry if I'm rubbing salt on the wound if you are sure.

Missgoldilocks · 21/01/2021 14:08

@Minster2012 funnily enough my first son had big balls 😂 that's what we saw on the scan hahaha and it rang true they were big when he came out too! Now they have normalised with his body if that makes sense 😂 he's got the most magnificent bum 🤣😍😍 honestly I'm like I wish I had your bum!! It's always the way, the boys get the eyelashes and the bums when they don't need em! How are you lovely? Xx

@Katao I have one son already yes :) thank you xx he was so cute about finding out he'd have a brother he saw the scan pic and said "he's so cute I'm so excited" very sweet

2020mission · 21/01/2021 14:09

@Juno231 2 day long periods in the past? Lucky you I've always been 5 days minimum 😂 although not all of it heavy so it's not too bad!

@Missgoldilocks great to hear it's a boy 💙 I'd always want to find out! Are you surprised you're showing as a week or so further along?

Katao · 21/01/2021 14:13

@Missgoldilocks that's so sweet! Sounds like he will be a great big brother 🥰💙 congratulations.

@2020mission I think youneed 3 temp after higher to confirm ovulation so you won't know for a few daysbut I'm totally amateur so I'm sure someone more in know will be along soon to give you a proper answer 🙂

Missgoldilocks · 21/01/2021 14:19

@2020mission I knew I was 13 weeks but I'm 2 days further along than what I originally thought. That might be because I have bigger babies though 😅 the first scan at 8 weeks was bang on the same time I had calculated, but now its changed by 2 days. No biggie though... I know I could never wait to find out!!

Justanothercyster · 21/01/2021 14:22

@2020mission ovulation that early say whaaaaat?!?! No idea hun sorry.

Girls, I have had enough of today 😂 a live lesson, 5 Year 11 mock feedback meetings back to back, 2 Year 13 coursework meetings next, and then a whole parents evening for Year 8. Oh, and other recorded lessons in the background.
DON'T TEACH. IT AGES YOU. 👵🏼

paintfairy · 21/01/2021 14:30

@2020mission usually a peak opk indicates ovulation is coming and that can be 12-36 hours after the test (sometimes longer). I always work on a next day basis. But there's no way of really knowing. Temping - your bbt only rises the day after ovulation (and you need 3 days checking, to confirm). So you shouldn't ever get a positive opk and a bbt rise on the same day. By the time you ever see a bbt rise you've missed everything basically. So although very handy for tracking and planning for future months (and looking back to see if you dtd at the right time) it's more of a confirmation thing.

Kirky658 · 21/01/2021 14:54

@gem176 didn't know you could do that I'll take a look x

Minster2012 · 21/01/2021 14:57

Oh yeah I had to self refer @Kirky658 that was it, but I never got past getting a fork in the post & thinking "these are really small boxes for my medical history 🤣😂"

@2020mission that does look like a peak and if you had ewcm too then that likely means OV today or later today/tomorrow so it's still very much in the running don't worry

@Katao I like Bronson too! And no af, hmmm

@Vil10 im with @Katao I think you need to test again in a few days if af is really light compared to normal? but only you know hun & how did the meeting go?

@Missgoldilocks OMG that's so cute!! And yes on the eyelashes and bums...I'm ok, had a bad start to the day but perked up a bit now, yesterday went really fast today is DRAGGING and once again I'm that parent who has just driven around to get DS to sleep for a bit of sanity so currently sat at the side of a lovely country road with him asleep in car whilst I talk to you & listen to radio! 😝

@Justanothercyster another day dragged here

2020mission · 21/01/2021 16:26

Thanks @Minster2012 @paintfairy @Katao for getting back to me. Had a look at the app interpretation and it states that my temperature fluctuations seem to be on the high side. I'm testing while lying down as soon as I wake up with an alarm set to the same time every day, back of mouth under tongue. Does everyone who tracks BBT here go for the oral test method? I'll keep going as it has only been just over a week of temperature checking so maybe it's just not long enough to tell. I do feel like I've missed ovulation though. Raging that my husband went to bed last night and didn't give me any 😂 had to wait until this morning.
