wearing pjs all day long, making money from our thong, tww driving us crazy, all this s**t to make a baby! TTC bus 29

[Minster2012]

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

@Kirky658 Thankyou! I've told myself I'm onto month 10 now anyway so if it is implantation bleeding then bonus!! I've posted pics of my dogs on here so I've definitely given myself away😂x

@Florence13 very frustrating but what can you do!! I hope that's the case here but I'm not sure x

@Katao I have my fingers crossed for you too with no af!!🤞🏼I hope so, I'm going to give him a ring tomorrow!x

@Gem176 id been looking forward to it all week too, typical🙄 it's not fresh at all, definitely pink/brown! I'll have to wait and see what happens tomorrow then I'll test Saturday if nothing! Oh he is!!xx

@Minster2012 I said to OH is it selfish of us to be ringing him and asking him to do a zoom and he said no it's his job and he's not the one with covid so can still do a zoom meeting, he's right, so we're ringing him first thing in the morning! Nope it's not normal for me at all, like I said I'm always heavy the first 2 days, I'll have to go out and get more tests tomorrow night if it's still the same tomorrow!!x

@Vil10 definitely sounds like it might be worth testing again? And no, the mortgage advisor needs to get his bloody act together! 🤬
@Franklydear I think you need a new boss!

@Vil10 that sounds like it could still potentially be a positive... give it a few days see what happens and in the mean time will keep everything crossed for you! How annoying about your mortgage advisor, definitely try and get a zoom scheduled.

@Katao oh I've got everything crossed for you too!!! When can I get excited for a test from you? 😂

@Franklydear I'm glad you got to tell bossboy a fraction of what an ass he is, hopefully he will think a bit more moving forward!

@Kirky658 glad you managed to get your appts sorted finally!!

@Juno231 good news on the flat!!

@Minster2012 there is nothing wrong with driving if they fall asleep. In fact it's a mum win!

@Justanothercyster I really feel for you teachers at the moment 💕💕💕

So I got a positive on the OPK today... wish me luck 👀😏
DD got home from the childminders and screamed like a banshee until bedtime 🥴

Hurry up dry January I need a glass of wine !

@Florence13 @katao it has been busy I must say! Just took the dog for a walk and having a cuppa and a donut now ☺️

@2020mission pcos symptoms range from person to person don't forget, to be diagnosed you have to have 2/3 of these: irregular cycles, scan and blood test. In terms of symptoms I'm irregular (long), acne/oily, definitely gaining weight after the pill despite not eating any more, though I am slim too. I know some people with no symptoms who have a diagnosis due to bloods and scans etc.

@Tabbycat92 hiiiiiii

On a fun notes, my cervix is super squishy, the most cushiony cervix I've ever had 🙃 I've officially lost it...

Goodnight!

@2020mission my bestie has pcos, they only found out because she had been having irregular periods, they said she would struggle to conceive and she fell pregnant 2 months later!

@Justanothercyster that's interesting to know. I hate to be negative but I do think anyone who's been trying for over a year without success must have some condition causing problems so I definitely think something is going on. Obviously that doesn't mean it will never happen for a lot of us naturally necessarily but there has to be something hindering it, right? Maybe a few it's just bad luck. 😆 extra squishy cervix - I've still never even touched mines! I'm scared I'll do some sort of damage which is silly as my husband pokes at it a lot haha

@Gem176 that's brilliant for you & DD

@Vil10 it's def not selfish, it's his job. Fact. Do it. And def get another test, it can always wait if it's not needed 🤷‍♀️

@blackcurrantqueen ooooo Damn it on DD but get on that dick girl! And we are very lucky that DS falls asleep quite easily in the car still if we (I need) a break & is still good at going to sleep at night (any other baby will be a nightmare I know)

@Justanothercyster @2020mission I don't know about my cervix either and how the hell do you know what a normal cervix feels like??? Have you felt anyone else's cervix's?? What?? Ooooo you mean compared to usually not someone else's!! You aren't randomly poking someone else's and going ooooo yours is all hard!! 🤣🥱cos I mean that would be really awkward!

@Kirky658 it was definitely productive, an hour and a half of me shouting at him, I called him an idiot and a hooligan, amongs other things, he had the tenacity of telling me he knew I’ve been pissed of for weeks but was waiting for me to come to him
@Vil10 surely there must be a solution, he’ll want to get on with business too
@Minster2012 I want a more clear constant communication, and he sort of agree with that but unfortunately he enjoys the fist fights and rows, he calls them, so who knows, we always end up having huge arguments, he really knows how to get under my skin, I told him to grow up and find himself a girlfriend he can fight with and leave me alone, but every dirty item came up today, so that’s why I even got an apology
Ds is good as new, it was the tooth falling, some autistics feel the pain much more intensely, tooth fairy left him a note to get some Lego from the shop, so it’s all good
@Gem176 there’s a business opportunity for your nephew
Fingers crossed for all the testers

Plus ladies I'm now officially upto date with MAFS well, 5 mins behind!! HIIT with joe wicks & MAFS in the background is much easier 🤣

@2020mission well apparently it's fairly normal for it to take 1-2 years (but they never tell you that in school!) but I have to say I agree. The worst one for people must be "unexplained infertility". I'm so thankful we both have a diagnosed issue each as weird as that sounds, it explains a lot.
Always worth investigating I think.
I'm obsessed with cervix checking haha! Every shower!

@Minster2012 if you do it for long enough you get to know what it does throughout the cycle haha. Should be high soft and open around ov, low hard and open before af. It's a bit fascinating I think haha. But very unreliable.

@paintfairy unfortunately he is going nowhere and neither am I
@blackcurrantqueen I properly laid on thick today, he’ll be in his best behaviour for a month tops, we do this dance regularly

@Vil10 yes definitely get on to the mortgage advisor tomorrow hun and I’m optimistic that you might need a test in a day or two when you feel ready.

@blackcurrantqueen yay! Get on it girl.

@Franklydear glad you managed to give boss boy some home truths just hope it does improve things for you.

@Minster2012 you are way more productive than me if I put something on tv then I prefer to just sit and watch preferably with lots of chocolate 😂

@Gem176 are you watching tonight's too? Ines and Sam are ridic!! I don't trust Mike...
Interested to see where they go.
Yeah it's on the 22nd feb.
@Minster2012 are you enjoying tonight's ep??

Anyone else been doing s/A tax returns?
OH just found out he got a huge tax bill over £1500 more than he was expecting... then turns round saying there def gonna be no babies for us this year! I feel so horrid right now.. I haven't been able to find work since moving coz of covid etc. I feel guilty for not being able to bring money in but selfish to because why should one tax bill decide our future?
Also my ill dad (has m.s) is deteriorating more and more and keeps nagging about wanting a grandchild. I'd be heartbroken if he passed before I get the chance ... but I don't know how long he has... OH is sat stressing and now not talking .. I don't wanna agrovate him anymore while he's stressed.. I'm at a loss and screaming on the inside.. trying not to cry and let him see I'm upset 😑😑😑😭😭😭😭

@Dollybird89 I would be stressed and upset with that bill too, poor dh, don’t worry, it will work out, the job, the baby and hugs for your dad, is so hard

@Justanothercyster what if you don't ovulate? Does it work?! Just asking that is! There were lots of ppl doing ivf with unexplained infertility, I never realised how common it was and yeah frustrating

@Florence13 i agreed to do exercising with DH a few months ago as he was whinging that he had no motivation to do workouts after DS went to bed or at all so I said I would do with him at least 3 times a week & stop him snacking too, it also stops me snacking as well so it's good for the both of us 👌🏻...the fact that I eat a slice of chocolate afterwards we don't talk about! I try do another workout on my non DS days too. All about balance, I have a sweet tooth & a penchant for gin don't forget 🤣

@Franklydear a month of good behaviour that's ace!

@notyetamumbuttrying oh my god yes but ines is awful. How can she think she's gonna come out of this well?

@Minster2012 I have to admit I have the biggest sweet tooth. I walk the dogs twice a day and do yoga in between but I don’t do anything as intense as HIIT

@Dollybird89 we do SA tax returns, I guess that's because he has to pay allowance for next year too? Why does it mean no kids? Did you get on the list for a fertility app I know it as long but still

MAFS wtaf????

Sorry i missed your post @Tabbycat92 welcome. Too soon not to have hoppe and sounds like you gave it your all!

@Minster2012 @Vil10 @blackcurrantqueen thanks for the cheerleading 😘

@Dollybird89 that sounds like a bit of a knee jerk reaction to the bill. Give him a chance to figest it and I'm sure he will be more reasonable. Sorry you are upset and especially that your dad is ill. X

Thanks @katao I think it's down to the last few months of thinking "this is it" and being wrong. But fingers crossed 🤞

@minster2012 I'm on waiting list for appt.

Bit numb atm gonna go read book and escape for a bit

@Minster2012 she's unreal isn't she!! They're both nuts! I'm watching the next one on the fire stick, couldn't wait until tomorrow with that epic ending and sneak peak!!

@Tabbycat92 aw I know what you mean. It gets to a point where you think well it didn't happen before so why would it happen now but gotta keep your chin up girl 😉

@Tabbycat92 that's why we have each other!! We keep each other sane (ish)

@Dollybird89 good I'm glad you are on the list, another step forwards and I agree with @Katao knee jerk, have a read and enjoy your book, you seem like a great couple who understand each other so you know how to talk to each other darling, it will be ok xxx big hugs xxx

@notyetamumbuttrying argh can't believe you are going onnnnnnnnnn sooooo jealous
