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

@Dollybird89 ffs. Try again. Is he like my DH? He goes all dramatic at things and isn't even rational. Comes out with shit. I just ignore him now. 🤣 It passes.

blackcurrantqueen · 21/01/2021 21:30

@Dollybird89 So sorry you are having such a difficult time, fingers crossed when he calms down and feels less stressed he will come round 💕
@Katao yes I'm going to be top cheerleader for you girl!

@Minster2012 my little girl is a really good sleeper too and I'm sure my next one will equally be a nightmare at bedtime 😂
@Justanothercyster yay for squishy cervix!
@Tabbycat92 hey! Welcome to the mad house!

I'm getting on this MAFS thing tomorrow!
I've just started watching Bling Empire on Netflix. It is obscene!
Just done the deed, now legs up 😂

Minster2012 · 21/01/2021 21:35

@blackcurrantqueen karma will get us 🤣😂 if you are new to MAFS try the very first one MAFS USA on channel 4 on demand. Brilliant.

Vil10 · 21/01/2021 21:54

@paintfairy @blackcurrantqueen @Minster2012 @Franklydear @Florence13 Thankyou for the support girls!! If af doesn't come with full flow and red tomorrow I'm buying a test tomorrow night and doing it Saturday morning! And on the meeting front, I'm going to ring him in the morning and say we need this meeting ASAP so can we set up a zoom meeting, it's his job after all!!

@Dollybird89 so sorry you're feeling so upset!! I bet it was just a knee jerk reaction by your OH, he'll be stressed and it'll have just been a comment said without thinking! Sending hugs x

Vil10 · 21/01/2021 21:58

Also, who has their valentines outfit planned?? I'm thinking red obviously, suspenders, stockings, see through lace body, cut out at the back, can you tell I've been thinking about this?🙄 however, for anyone who has ever watched one tree hill, I'm a massive Brooke Davis fan, so anyway, anyone who has seen it do you remember the scene when she takes off the black silk rob and she has a red bow on?? Well I have the black robe and my fancy black heels, so I'm so so tempted to do a Brooke Davis!!!

Juno231 · 21/01/2021 22:00

@Justanothercyster @2020mission yeah isn't it something like 84% of couples get pregnant within a year and only another 8% in year 1-2. Sigh.

2020mission · 21/01/2021 22:04

@Vil10 I'll just get the red sequin nipple tassels back out 😆❣️❣️

blackcurrantqueen · 21/01/2021 22:04

@Minster2012 serious money, serious plastic surgery 😂

@Vil10 I don't normally do anything of that sort 😂but I did order some underwear today! It's arriving tomorrow so I won't be saving it until valentines ha, can't miss ovulation day 😂

notyetamumbuttrying · 21/01/2021 22:15

@Minster2012 we were misled! I'll say no more.
@blackcurrantqueen you won't regret it!! Ooh another one for the list, thank you 🙏🏾
I'm doing the USA one when I finish the oz one @Minster2012 😎
@Vil10 it's Dh bday 13th feb so he always gets an extended valentines treat! 😜

Minster2012 · 21/01/2021 22:22

Argh @notyetamumbuttrying don't say that!! And you need to watch the first couple of stirs of the USA one, do you remember me saying I binge watched on our honeymoon cos I fucked myself??? Yeahhhh and oooo extended valentines

Are we talking Valentine's already?? There are a couple of posh places near here doing take out we might get a really posh meal 🙌🏻❤️

@blackcurrantqueen that sounds like my kinda programme!!

@2020mission you should have got the tassels out last night!

OP posts:
Vil10 · 21/01/2021 22:31

@2020mission hahahaha yes!!

@blackcurrantqueen yes girl, get them out for fertile week!! Maybe they'll be the lucky charm!!

@notyetamumbuttrying oooo lucky him!! Do you have anything planned??

@Minster2012 hahaha it's the only thing we have to look forward to at the min! Sounds lovely! Can't beat a posh meal, and in the comfort of your own with sex afterwards🍆

paintfairy · 21/01/2021 23:03

@Vil10 🤣 definitely not. I've never worn a sexy outfit in my life. I would be mortified. 🙈
@Juno231 and here we are. We are the 8%. 😁

blackcurrantqueen · 22/01/2021 06:52

I've also ordered a valentines box of cakes and treats 😂 much more up my street @paintfairy
Think we will also get a meal from somewhere but not sure what yet! Need to have a look into it !

Justanothercyster · 22/01/2021 07:44

Well app thinks I'm 9dpo whit that's anyone's guess, but temp climbed again at 37.08 today 🤞🏼in that limbo period of know it's unlikely but still clinging to a bit of hope.

@Dollybird89 you're putting so much pressure on yourself love, be gentle. You have to do what's best for you, dh was probably just panicking about the money. It's so stressful for a lot of people atm, you're not alone in feeling like that. There's nothing you can do though, so be kind to yourself x

@Minster2012 because of how unreliable a method it is yeah it does haha.
And I know!! I can't wait for tonight's now!

@Vil10 not even thought about Vday yet haha, we don't tend to do it. Tbh I'll probably make more effort for the dog 😂 just a disclaimer- me and dh are very much in love 😂

@Juno231 yeah, I wish everyone talked about it more 😞

blodyn91 · 22/01/2021 07:47

@Vil10 love One tree Hill!! and Gossip Girl
On the mortage front, we got a decision in principal through Nationwide online, take a few hours. That and our deposit covered the offer we put in, showed it to estate agent after our offer was accepted and they put the sold subject to contract sign up that day.
We than had a meeting with the mortage lady at Nationwide to discuss our mortage options, so how many years, monthly payments etc, we went for a 5 year fixed at 1.89% which is so low! We never paid for an independent mortgage advisor. The meeting with her was just over the phone. I did have to go into a branch to show my ID and had to scan pay slips and proof of address. We had to act quick as 2 others had put offers in on the same day.

@Kirky658 glad you've sorted your booking in appointment, will you be going to Stafford hospital? I had a Stafford uni student midwife at my appointment, and said im happy for a student to be at the birth as well.

Vil10 · 22/01/2021 07:54

@paintfairy I must admit, the first time I wore one for my OH I was actually nervous😂 but now I'm quite comfortable, especially if weve had a drink!

@Justanothercyster that is completely understandable that the dog gets more attention than the man, I don't blame you😂 we dont properly do Valentine's Day, never get presents apart from 2 years ago I got a vibrator, we always get each other a card and I'll buy some nice underwear, but we don't make massive plans! Think because there's not actually anything else to do at the min we might just cook a meal and have a few drinks!

@blodyn91 yes same!! I can watch them both so many times, when I had my op I binged watched them and it was amazing! Wow really?? I didn't know any of this!! We initially got our mortgage advisor just to see what kind of position I was in, OH already has a mortgage, but this will be my first time buying! That's definitely worth knowing, I'll speak to OH tonight and see what he thinks!! Thankyou for the help❤️

Minster2012 · 22/01/2021 08:01

@blackcurrantqueen oooo cakes and treats, that sounds good!! Mind you the other night we ordered £50 worth of frozen pies and brownies to be delivered next week from a company near us & they are THE BEST pies & honestly the best brownies which then go into the oven! Amazing! Ps watched the first episode of that bling empire this morning whilst working out 🤣😂👌🏻

@Vil10 there's a great idea from @blodyn91 ❤️

@Justanothercyster oooi limbo time and similar timing to @Tabbycat92 too

@Katao did you throw the pee this morning?? Or wee quickly?!

OP posts:
Justanothercyster · 22/01/2021 08:12

@Vil10 yeah that's what I was thinking, 3 course meal date night. Any ideas for menu? (Fussy eater alert over here!)

@Minster2012 @Tabbycat92 🤞🏼🤞🏼

blodyn91 · 22/01/2021 08:19

@Vil10 same position as us, OH has a mortgage on this house, then we wanted the new one to be in both our names. So the mortgage lady explained how OH mortage would be 'ported' over, and any equity used as deposit. Google porting mortages of you like. Literally I knew nothing

Kirky658 · 22/01/2021 08:19

@blodyn91thank you! It will probably be royal stoke hospital for me as that's my closest one, small world eh!

I was in the wide awake club at 4am...over an hour could not go back to sleep... Insomnia yayyyyy!

notyetamumbuttrying · 22/01/2021 08:25

@Minster2012 whoops sorry mate, erase from memory! Ah yes I do! I have them ready to binge if the hubby can stand it 😂
@Vil10 not anything concrete but I thought I'd cook for once lol and lay the table out nicely, candles etc. Get him a chocolate cake, maybe even buy him flowers to make the table look nice, treat him like a lady for the evening 😆 and get a new sexy outfit but will leave that for Valentine's Day. Need to do something separate for his bday. Not sure what mind lol!

Leah2501 · 22/01/2021 08:40

Hi all,
I posted for advice on my ovulation 10/01 I couldn’t see my peak on my tests. You guys advised DTD as much as possible.

So I did and yesterday at 12dpo I got my BFP!!

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
Katao · 22/01/2021 09:13

@Leah2501 congratulations! DTD is the important bit 😉

@Minster2012 no need to test. Af arrived this morning 😭

This has been such a weird cycle and very emotionally draining. Girls thanks for all the support and company but please excuse me while I go sulk in the corner for a couple of days x
