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

Hey ladies, good news, midwife has been in touch! She apologised for the doctors being a waste of space. Basically got my booking appt on the phone on 8th Feb, then first scan beginning of March. Happy days all feels a bit more real now ❤️

Juno231 · 21/01/2021 17:11

@2020mission yeah I reckon today's temp was a bit of a fluke and you'll ovulate in the next day or so instead! I temp the exact same way as you. You don't have pcos do you (not to scare you, just can't remember!) as I think that can produce slightly more jagged charts. As for 2 days AFs I only had them due to being on the pill for 14 years 🙊. Before that my periods were really long, like 7-14 days!

@Kirky658 ah I'm glad they got back to you so quickly!! Must be exciting to have it booked in now ☺️

I've been busy remortgaging the flat today - took way longer than I thought to have a call with the bank but on the bright side it got approved on the same day and they've already scheduled a survey in for Monday!

Gem176 · 21/01/2021 17:15

@Kirky658 that's fab, our first appointment is the same day 😊 xx

Florence13 · 21/01/2021 17:25

@Justanothercyster that sounds like a really rough day, don’t know how you manage it.

@Vil10 how did your meeting go?

@Katao are you planning on testing anytime soon?

@Kirky658 glad the midwife got in touch.

Kirky658 · 21/01/2021 17:26

@juno231 thanks hun it's a big relief! Wow remortgaging sounds like a right headache

@gem176 you and I are pregnancy twinning ❤️😂

2020mission · 21/01/2021 17:29

Thanks @Juno231 I was hoping you'd feed back as you seem to always know what you're doing! I did wonder but I don't think I have PCOS. I had a bad sleep due to heartburn last night so maybe my temp was off because I was up a few times through the night for a pee, once for gaviscon and then when I thought I was going to be sick.

I've looked up PCOS symptoms and checked:

  • irregular periods or no periods at all
Always range from 25-28 days
  • irregular ovulation or failure to ovulate
Unknown? But have at least twice when I had the 2 chemicals
  • excessive hair growth (hirsutism) – usually on the face, chest, back or buttocks
*Nothing other than a tiny bit of peach fuzz on my jaw line near my ears

- weight gain
I'm slim*

  • thinning hair and hair loss from the head
No hair loss. My hair is quite fine but has always been since I was tiny so I think this one is a no too.

- oily skin or acne
No

Katao · 21/01/2021 17:46

@Justanothercyster jeez that sounds stressful!

@Kirky658 glad you got sorted with the midwife. Funny how you and @Gem176 keep matching!

@Florence13 maaaybe??? Not sure. Got a bfn at 11dpo. Feel like if I whip out a test the witch will arrive within the hour to mock me 😂 glad I didn't get any cheap tests in this month or I'd have gone insane by now poas every half hour! Don't want to waste an frer

Franklydear · 21/01/2021 18:12

I haven't read since this morning yet, but I had a return to work meeting with bossboy, he sat at a different table and wasn't even looking at me, so in the anything else bit, I took the chance and let rip, and threw everything at him for an hour and a half, he ended up apologizing, a first, and saying I am right (had to look out the window to see if he'll has frozen) and got a few things through, he even recognized he needs to communicate better, so intense but worth it, I hate that we communicate this way, bloody idiot says it's fine, if we were blokes we would have a good first up outside the pub and then a round together, I just said why can't we just have a round every so often and skip the fight?

Franklydear · 21/01/2021 18:13

Fist up, not first

Franklydear · 21/01/2021 18:27

@Minster2012 Ds was fine yesterday after his loose tooth fall out, the ribs bother him a bit...
I feel much better, resting yesterday was definitely the right thing to do, and work is well, just work again, hate this boy

Vil10 · 21/01/2021 18:34

@amy2503 it could change your whole outlook and attitude!

@Kirky658 ooo really?? Whereabouts in Lancashire do you go to?

@Katao @Minster2012 it's been really light, pale pink hardly losing anything only when I wipe and today it was brown tinged cm, Noo you aren't rubbing salt in the wound at all!! You're being supportive and I really appreciate it!! Going to see what happens over night/tomorrow and if nothing then I'll test again Saturday, but my rhr has dropped and I don't feel positive so pretty sure it's just an odd period!x

@Florence13 @Minster2012 well I'm very annoyed, meeting was supposed to be at 6:15 tonight, mortgage advisor rang OH at 5 to say his wife has tested positive for covid so he has to go and pick the children up from school then self isolate, I'm going to ring tomorrow and offer to do a zoom meeting but if he's looking after his daughters not sure that'll be easy for him, maybe I shouldn't be so selfish🙄😂 but I was excited!!

@Kirky658 so glad your apps are all booked in!!

Kirky658 · 21/01/2021 18:35

@franklydear sounds a productive meeting and that you got things off your chest!

Kirky658 · 21/01/2021 18:40

@vil10 yeah! I cover the whole county right the way up to the border with the lake district and to the border with Yorkshire. Love going up there for a couple of days enjoying the scenery. Some very pretty villages. Also ignore your RHR!!!! Mine is still up and down like a bloody yo yo even now. Xx

Tabbycat92 · 21/01/2021 18:50

Hello Smile hoping I can join you lot!
I'm ttc no.2, am on my 6th cycle.
Am currently 7dpo, but not feeling very hopeful this month.
This month we've tracked bbt, used fertility vitamins, preseed and Opk's! So it better have worked because it was expensive 😅

Gem176 · 21/01/2021 18:56

@amy2503 I thought period pains were implantation cramps then was convinced af was arriving when it was actually implantation 🙈 trust absolutely no advice I give on what twinges could be but on my mission to be little miss positivity for you all, you aren't out until af arrives so might not be those pains 🤞🏻

@Vil10 that's him 😂 total wind up merchant! He's convinced my DD that there is a magical wee boy who lives in the woods out the back and you can't leave your wellies on the steps or he'll steal them 🤣 she actually believes him 🙈

Do you think you will test again if af finishes early without getting any heavier?

@Minster2012 i like making people laugh, it sometimes really is the best medicine! I scored, oh's nephew called to ask if he could take the dog and dd for a socially distanced walk! Both came home knackered and nephew even washed the dog before sending him home 🙌🏻 always waiting until they arrive then it whizzes past in a blink 😩

@notyetamumbuttrying im all caught up now 😁 I really cannot stand Ines or Sam 🙄 I've got a serious crush on Mike who was with Heidi (she had the amazing curly hair)! I've a right thing for baldies 🙈😂 waiting is pants but at least February isn't too far away now! Have you got a date yet?

@Kirky658 let's not mention the T word til after our first scans 😂❤️

@Katao it's nice to have a buddy from on here 🥰

Vil10 · 21/01/2021 19:00

@Kirky658 the Lake District is lovely!! We always go there just for the day or for a week away sometimes, especially in summer! I do need to, it's so confusing, it dipped so low at 8dpo when I had those implantation signs, it's now dipped 1bpm lower than at 8dpo but I've stopped bleeding now, completely, not lost anything on a pad today!! My body is just being a fuck boy!!

@Tabbycat92 welcome lovely!! 🤞🏼 this is your month!!

@Gem176 hahaha our OH's sound scarily similar!! Bless her😂 I think so yeah because it's odd for me, I'm always heavy for the first 2 days then light for the last 3, unless I'm having 2 days of spotting before I start, but my spotting is always more pink/red than it's been today!

Kirky658 · 21/01/2021 19:03

@vil10 that sounds like a period I had a couple of months ago. Had no pains and it was so light I was so convinced as it was early too. I took a test after the bleeding stopped, maybe an option then you know where you are? Sending hugs ❤️ and yeah I love it up there is it so beautiful.x

Vil10 · 21/01/2021 19:10

@Kirky658 I know that it's completely normal for periods to change and fluctuate as well especially when it's all natural, no contraception involved, so I think maybe it's just that, or like I said before just spotting before I start, I'll know more tomorrow! Thankyou!! If it stops or carries on light I'll definitely test! It's such a small world, I always think women on here who live close like for all we know we could've been in the same place/bar/restaurant before!!x

Kirky658 · 21/01/2021 19:12

@vil10 keep smiling regardless honey, you got this. Omg I know, that's why I'm always so careful not to give too much away in case anyone I know's on here 😂 lol xx

Florence13 · 21/01/2021 19:13

@Vil10 sorry to hear about the meeting what an absolute bummer!! Oh that’s what I had before I got my BFP as I thought it was AF but it changed to brown then just disappeared. Keeping fingers crossed for you.

@Katao I know what you mean. Well I’m keeping everything crossed the witch stays away until you feel ready to test and hopefully it will be a BFP!

Katao · 21/01/2021 19:23

@Vil10 that really sounds like implantation bleeding especially as you have already seen a faint line 🤞🤞🤞 ah sorry the meeting getting cancelled, hope they can accommodate you some other way.

Katao · 21/01/2021 19:26

@Florence13 thanks! I peed in a pot this morning but then chucked it as I chickened out 🙈😂

Gem176 · 21/01/2021 19:34

@Vil10 I've just noticed the bit about the meeting being cancelled! Total bummer!
Well I have everything crossed for you, I was so sure that this was your month and if you haven't had bright red/fresh then I'd be thinking it's not af 🤷🏻‍♀️
He drives me mad but he is a really good man, I'm sure your OH is the same xx

Minster2012 · 21/01/2021 19:42

Checking back in!

@Kirky658 that's great yay! And bump buddies with @Gem176 that's lovely! ❤️

@Juno231 good news on the flat right?

@Franklydear so how did you actually leave it with boss boy are you gonna end up talking things through more with him openly or having a fist fight every once in a while?? And that's good bout DS I'm pleased

@Vil10 you need to tell your mortgage advisor to do a zoom cos you want to make an offer on the house so need the mortgage in place. He has to be able to do it from home esp of his wife is at home too? And def test again on sat if only when wiping cos that's not like a normal period?? There's def still hope I'm saying that for @Katao too with no witch 🤞🏻❤️

Hi @Tabbycat92 welcome! Why are you not feeling hopeful? There's always hope 🤞🏻🤪

@Gem176 does your OHs nephew wanna take my DS & dogs out??? 🤞🏻👌🏻

OP posts:
Gem176 · 21/01/2021 19:53

@Minster2012 he probably would 😂 bored out of his mind! He's on furlough at the moment so I might start hiring him out! The good thing is he is absolutely brilliant with dd, she loves being out mucking about at animals and chopping wood etc so him and OHs brother frequently find themselves with a wee shadow 🥰
