Heading for 💓day with fishy burps & wombs as fluffy as a 70’s bush we say UP YOURS TTC Bus 30

We’ve got the fastest TTC 🚌in the UK & we aren’t afraid of a modification or 2 as we have a bus with a beautiful panoramic roof seat where there is wine & snacks a plenty for those that need a bit of a breather from our race car but still hang on to our ride! 🌞

We are heading into February ladies & let’s be honest most of us thought we’ve have cute little babies by now, but instead we’ve got lockdown bellies, fishy burps 🐠from bloody omega 3 supplements & the BIGGEST STASH OF TTC drugs in the planet on this bus including IVF, TTC, vitamins, headaches, anti sickness for pregnancy & some other ones we won’t talk about. We also LOVE a good snack, a pet, a dildo and clit sucker but badly behaved BOSSES are NOT welcome.

So grab your crotchless panties and not much else for Valentine’s Day 💓and invite your men (or women folk) to dinner cos they are being treated like a REAL LADY. Forget January blues. February is where it’s at and we say UP YOURS TTC, we are cumming to get you 🙌🏻🥰

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

@amy2503 hey hun! How's the move prep going? We didn't track anything really last month when we got BFP, we just DTD every other day! And had a drink and enjoyed ourselves over Xmas lol. Are you excited to move x

Tornado2Inc · 28/01/2021 14:52

@Dollybird89 Nether-yaya? 😆😆😆 Awesome 😂

Juno231 · 28/01/2021 15:07

@Dollybird89 Love that they managed to fit in a Chaucer reference with the nether-yaya!

@2020mission "important" hair had me giggling. Even when I shave I'm always terrified all bring the razor close to my head hair by accident and lose important hair.

@amy2503 1st of March is brilliant! If you think you can have regular BD then yeah tracking makes no difference so lose it for a cycle and see what happens :)

Minster2012 · 28/01/2021 15:22

Catching up!

Just urgh on Paris Hilton but unfortunately in the US you can pick things like that. @Tornado2Inc scanning her head wouldn't take long would it! @DKDK123 we should def invite her on the bus, we need a voodoo doll right??

Oooo such hood points from @blodyn91 see we said it's just cos @Kirky658 is actually super fit 🤣😂

@Vil10 I can't believe you are waiting to make the offer I'd not be able to but then again I do all our finances 🤣

Oooo yes @Juno231 I mean she wouldn't want to wreck her figure would she??

@larrythelizard ive not used a herbalist no but a lot of ppl in the ivf side use acupuncture and I'm drinking Pom juice which is kinda like liquid gold so everything is pricey. My SIL swears by herbal remedies for her horses & dogs?? Dunno if that helps 🤔

Wait did I miss @Dollybird89 appointment for MAY 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻yesssss and btw sperm reserves are actually influenced from factors around 3 months before we were told in our first IVF appointment so now is the optimal time for OH to get on it! (Mine was on a boozy stag do 3 months before he deposited his addition to my eggs so mehhhhh) that's awesome, now you have your date motivation!! Falling into place lady!

@2020mission we are the same on the house front. Had a convo last night about "what's the point in looking at a bigger house when we only really want a bigger garden/a bit of land for the dogs we don't need another room if there's no other child" it's hard. I use hair removal cream, not that one though.

@Katao I think you'll find it would be plural on the nanny's 🤣😂

@Dollybird89 I read deshedding as for a womb lining. We don't want that. No thanks.

@amy2503 hey sorry my bad I totally nearly missed my own bus on this one. Yeah why not just do no tracking

lucyrp · 28/01/2021 15:44

@Justanothercyster oooo exciting news about the house ! Very jealous

@larrythelizard I've used a herbalist when I was small to get rid of my eczema or to manage it. Or should I say my mum did. My grandad uses on religiously as he suffers with terrible asthma but has never used an inhaler so take from that what you will! I've also personally used reflexology before hand but more so for my mental health and when I had glandular fever

@2020mission I recently started using nair on recommendation from @Minster2012 and I'm so glad I did. Shavin. Brings me out in a rash 😂

notyetamumbuttrying · 28/01/2021 16:16

@Dollybird89 go for it then! We look forward to your review too 😏
@Katao I can do a happy kind of stressed 😂 she's good thanks! She hasn't mentioned it since. Think I'll bring it up with her again after we've had our appointment and hopefully have timeframes.
@Juno231 still not touched a drop! Don't really think about it either, only when I see cold beers on the tele or large red wines and think ooohhh alcohol 🤤 gonna try n stick to it until 13th when it's Dh bday and then introduce wine on Fridays like you, and have them all weekend most likely too 😜
@amy2503 congrats on the move date 🥳 if you can be chill with not tracking and it won't stress you out, then go for it!
@Vil10 good girl! 😉
@Minster2012 read today's blog, was a bit of a tear jerker 🥲

Katao · 28/01/2021 16:40

@Minster2012 true! Many nannies (say that 10 times fast 😂)

@notyetamumbuttrying hope you are making progress soon. No word on your appointment? Hopefully that is good that it's going ahead.

@Juno231 Can't believe yours is Monday!

larrythelizard · 28/01/2021 16:57

Thanks @Katao @lucyrp and @Minster2012 I might do some googling. Suspect it'll have to wait until after lockdown so can do some Googling before then!

Have ordered pomegranate juice for this week's shop and really upped my vitamin uptake anyway so will see what that brings!

Minster2012 · 28/01/2021 17:30

@Juno231 your appointment is Monday!! So lies going on next week! Whoop whoop!

@Katao many nannies, of course!

@notyetamumbuttrying tear jerker bad?

@larrythelizard I think upping the bits is a good start and the liquid ass juice (Pom juice)

So I got a couple of lovely surprises from mr postie today (no not THAT kind of surprises) you know who you are but I think someone took pity on the fact around here there are clearly too many couples TTC and hogging all the Oreo choc & hopefully my bean will get snuggly with it's fair share now & a lovely surprise with it which is gorgeous💓🌟

And here's me casually getting logs inside in my sexy new rainbow gloves 🥰😘🌈

@amy2503 not silly at all, and might even work, I stopped tracking, or trying to, due to desperation, sometimes I regret it sometimes I don't
I think I fixed bossboy, he was in today and no silly business, none at all, and not ignoring me like I wasn't there either

Florence13 · 28/01/2021 17:47

@Franklydear yay for fixing boss boy!! I’m sure that will make your life a lot easier bless you.

@Minster2012 loving the rainbow gloves!!

There is lots happening next week, let’s hope for lots of positivity so we can all go and cause chaos on the pregnancy threads instead.

Justanothercyster · 28/01/2021 17:51

@Vil10 not really no, I'll see how the temps go I guess. Eek! How did the offer go?

@larrythelizard I've felt like that for a long time, you'll have something soon I'm sure 🤞🏼

@notyetamumbuttrying i knowwwww 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

@amy2503 definitely relax and see how that approach goes 🤞🏼 yay for move!

@lucyrp it feels all very surreal atm, I won't feel secure until our mortgage is accepted hah.

notyetamumbuttrying · 28/01/2021 17:57

@Katao no word on it so hoping no news is good news as they say! Just so happy feb is next week. The appointment will seem so much closer then 😬 how high getting on?
@Minster2012 tear jerker good for sure! I just really felt the emotion in your words (sorry if that sounds wanky but you know what I mean) x
Ooh loving the rainbow gloves and your blue nail varnish, I REALLY need to do my nails. I have varnish just peeling off 🙈

amy2503 · 28/01/2021 18:28

Thanks everyone. I'm really excited. I don't know, there's that part of me that wonders if I need to try relaxing more. People had kids for hundreds of years without ovulation tests. But then there's another part of me that thinks how can anyone ever get pregnant if they don't track 🤣🤣 I don't know. I think I'll try and focus on the move more but keep an eye on my cycle. A
Happy medium. xxx

Vil10 · 28/01/2021 19:34

@Justanothercyster keeping my fingers crossed for you🤞🏼 the offer got rejected which we knew would happen anyway, we offered low so we have room to increase, and there's no more offers from anyone else so, we're going to ring back tomorrow and offer a little more, no point going in with full price if we could get it for a little cheaper anyway!x

Billythecat · 28/01/2021 19:38

Would anyone mind if I jump on board? waves I’ve read the last 3 threads but not got to the end before it was on to the next Grin ! I’ve spent the afternoon catching up. I love that this seems to be a fun place and supportive. TTC #1 with endo and getting utterly fed up of the merry go round of fw, tww etc!

Minster2012 · 28/01/2021 19:42

I'm not going to believe bossboy is fixed yet @Franklydear, I will believe it when he can sustain his good behaviour for longer, but it's a start! We all knew you'd kick him into gear 😘

@Florence13 I know right, my hands are snuggly warm like my fluffy womb! I'm very spoilt by amazing women I got rainbow hugs all round 😘🙌🏻💓oh god imagine what fun if we all went onto a pregnancy board like HIYA OUR BUS HAS CRASHED ON YOU!!

@amy2503 won't be long at all til your move & it could all fall into place for you 🙌🏻🤞🏻

@notyetamumbuttrying wanky 🤣nahhhh don't worry there was plenty of emotion! And the nails! Really!? They are from Xmas?! I was going to post something the other day saying "we used to put pics of our lovely nails well here's my dead ones!" They are chrome look from before Xmas! 🤦🏼‍♀️🤣

@Vil10 did you hear anything?

@Vil10 I was too busy typing just saw, that's fair enough onward & upwards!

@Billythecat hiya!! 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻welcome!
Welcome to the race car!!! But yesssss very supportive!! How long have you been trying lovely?

OP posts:
notyetamumbuttrying · 28/01/2021 19:48

@Minster2012 lol 😂 glad you liked my turn of phrase 😏 ooh chrome! No wonder they looked blue in the other pic. Mine are from nye and look worse than yours! But mine aren't gels like I think yours are?! They could defo do with an infill tho 😆
@Billythecat hiya welcome! You're in good company here hun. How long u been ttc for?

Franklydear · 28/01/2021 19:52

@Minster2012 it's the first time he goes a full day of acting normal, he doesn't look it, but hey, think fat controller and yes, the hair is also the same😂
@Billythecat welcome to our merry go round, were forever waiting
How wonderful all the houses happening, very exciting, not much to report, going by ewcm I think I might have ovulated, we manage twice in this fw, but we'll see if anything comes out of it

amy2503 · 28/01/2021 19:55

@Minster2012 I'm so so hoping a change of scenery will reset stuff and it will all go my way xxx

2020mission · 28/01/2021 20:06

@Minster2012 how have you managed to keep your nail polish chip free in all that time 😆 it's a lovely colour. I'm also curious about your 3 rings... engagement, wedding and...?

@Vil10 hopefully your next offer will do it 🤞

larrythelizard · 28/01/2021 20:14

Exciting @Vil10 I think you've got the right strategy; no one accepts a first offer!

Also love the chrome nails @Minster2012 - I have weird allergies so can't get gel nails done anymore, and I'm quite lazy so normal nail varnish is a bit of an effort; maybe sorting my hands out can be my new month challenge for Feb?!

Kirky658 · 28/01/2021 20:32

@billythecat hi endo sister!!! I am 6+4 with my first 😊 have had two endo surgeries, most recent was extensive in June 2020. How are you getting on x

notyetamumbuttrying · 28/01/2021 20:32

@larrythelizard can I just ask... do you have a lizard called Larry? 🤔 😂
