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 thought we might make it to Valentine’s Day ♥️💓 but oh no we talk too much! If you want to talk most things other than TTC we are the right bus, tv, (married at first sight what the hell?!), pets, annoying DHs, good food & exactly how many orgasms should we be having?

We’ve got a rowdy bus of newbies, oldies with history, excited ladies going forwards for IVF & pregnant mates we can’t get rid of...& February is gonna be BIG!

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

@Minster2012 massage night not usually a thing for us but I'm naming it that today because I could do with a massage and 🍆😆 gawwd, what a judgemental individual I may have a snoop 👀

Excited for all you in TWW, need some
BFPs next week ladies 🤞🏼

paintfairy · 07/02/2021 14:36

@Minster2012 oh? I can't remember who it was! But yeah there's a bunch of them i think that go around moaning. I couldn't help but wind them up. 🤣 I just find it bizarre that people get so irate about what others are doing. Not being funny but I went on a horse camp last year. 1 proper toilet in the whole place with a shower in there too. The rest were portaloos (gross). I slept in my horse trailer for 3 nights. How often do you think I was physically able to wash my hands with 1 sink for like 30 people? It was not before every meal time, I assure you. Am I dead? Apparently not? 🤣 Admittedly that's not a standard week for me, but you see what I'm saying.

Minster2012 · 07/02/2021 14:43

@paintfairy I can't believe Mr or Mrs C. O. Rona hasn't personally come out to find you vile individual? I bet you have something like the 10 minute rule about stuff on the floor too? In our house it's 2 weeks. DS just been very suspiciously quiet for a while in his own upstairs (like when a puppy is very suspiciously quiet it's NOT GOOD right) & DH & I can't be arsed to move so we just played rock paper scissors to see who lost to go find out why so quiet & deal with any consequences 🤣
I won

Here is said individual. Their net curtains are twitching hard

@bez91 we all maybe need a fortnightly massage!

Hi all, just dropping in to say hello and catch up, no snow here, been napping most of the day as was wide awake most of the night. Hoping for lots of bfps soon 🤞🤞

paintfairy · 07/02/2021 14:54

@Minster2012 ah yes. I remember someone criticising her username. And nope - no corona ever here! Another miracle. 🤣 The floor thing - yeah I've never worried about that either (I seriously must have a cracking immune system). But now we have the dog, the hair can be an issue. 🤣 I think anyone with pets in the house though can't really be that hygienic? It's pretty impossible. Even if you clean a lot. And I'm always bringing in mud and hay and all sorts? Hardly hygene central. (The image i have in my head, of how my house must come across, is now hilarious. I can assure you that there's not a hay carpet or anything). 🤣 I probably should clean more often, but you wouldn't walk in and think, god, what a shithole. 😆 There's a balance i think?

I wonder if their kids eat worms out the garden? 🤔🤣

DOB78 · 07/02/2021 15:04

I need some help here girls as I'm driving myself crazier.
This is the 1st month I've used OPKs and honestly I don't know how it works.
I used the CB digital and got a smiley face 2nd and 3rd then O on 4th we only DTD 3rd coz I've been a moody bitch and we aren't speaking right now.
Anyway did I ov 3rd or 4th??? Ov should have been 5th according to premom app but CB O that day too

Franklydear · 07/02/2021 15:07

@Minster2012 we are all getting an education on IVF thanks to you,it won't be in my future, but will definitely be able to support much better the next irl friend going through it
My neighbour I keep an eye on, has had a relapse on her mental health and moved to her mum's for a few days, so I am storing her parcels until she is ready, she's going to have a shock when I give them to her, have two big ones so far, it's ok, I don't mind, happy to get that little weight of her mind

Haiyaa · 07/02/2021 15:13

@DOB78 was it static smiley x 2 days then low again? I think once you get your static smiley it stays there for 48 hours then resets? So when you first got the static you could ovulate up to 48 hours later.

So if you DTD on 3rd you should be fine I think as it should cover it.

DOB78 · 07/02/2021 15:20

@Haiyaa Thanks for your answer. I don't think it was one with flashy smileys it's a pink one that you put a new cartridge in for each test. If we aren't successful this month I think I might add BBT as well cover all areas😄

LittleRa · 07/02/2021 15:21

Sorry to pop in and post when I’m not on the bus any more- I was on for a few bus trips in the Spring and am one of the BFPs in the 11 listed from July, I’m now 36 weeks tomorrow (!) and am on a Facebook group with some of the other lovely bumps hanging on here but I haven’t posted for months though I do sometimes pop back for a read and catch up to see how some familiar names are doing. ANYWAY in light of how you’re all so disgusting with your thread titles (tut tut) GrinWink I couldn’t help but share this meme I saw and thought of this bus!! Grin

Franklydear · 07/02/2021 15:29

Hey @LittleRa very app yes, glad to hear you are doing well and so close now

Minster2012 · 07/02/2021 15:41

@paintfairy I think the no 'Rona is cos you've not been out. You know. That whole, stayin in thing..,as the others pointed out on that thread I think I briefly saw someone say something similar to "you clearly have no one over to your house" er no. It's f ing lockdown mate. That's why I ain't cleaning either! 🤣we specifically decided no carpet downstairs cos of dogs & going in & out of the house & not being precious about taking shoes off, most ppl (used to when seeing ppl was a thing) comment on it looking nice, my kitchen floor in particular...ah ha I said...My criteria for choosing the tiles I wanted for the floor...I got the shortlist out on the floor & emptied half a dyson on them & saw which had areas that caught dust, showed dust or couldn't be cleaned easily as I've made that mistake before. I kid you not.

We've got word pie for tea. Yum.

@DOB78 are they the ones with the flashing smiles then the static smiling face? I've only used those ones but I think the same as @Haiyaa & it's either the 4th or 5th as most things say O within 24/48 hours & sperm can live for upto 5 days

@Franklydear the little things are really helpful she will be happy you've helped I hope she's ok

Was just trying to write a small blog post, meant to be positive. then Af arrives, I knew was coming, been cramping badly.
Had a cry
The finality of that cycle.

Least it should be over for valentines right?

@LittleRa 😂😂😂 definitely worth a share here. Wow 36weeks! How are you?

@Minster2012 ya that's definitely a bit of a kick when you are down, even though inevitable.

Only had a quick lookat that thread but will read it later. I'm definitely not a clean freak. My house is always just ok, fine with the 5 minute rule but i definitely wash my hands every time.

lucyrp · 07/02/2021 16:05

@paintfairy omg do you like my contributions🙂

lucyrp · 07/02/2021 16:05

@paintfairy meant this emoji 🤣🤣

notyetamumbuttrying · 07/02/2021 16:06

@Franklydear hilarious right! I've not gone bk to it for a few hrs, need to take another look in a bit, see how it's progressed 👀
@Florence13 hilarious and ridiculous in equal measure 😂
@paintfairy hardy immune system!
@Vil10 all about the upsuck!😏
@Minster2012 love that she's popped up! Will defo take another look now...🤪
@LittleRa oh hey I remember you! 36 weeks wow! Thanks for the meme, very us 😉

lucyrp · 07/02/2021 16:09

@LittleRa love that 😂

paintfairy · 07/02/2021 16:13

@lucyrp yes I do! 🤣 And I was bought up to wash my hands BTW. I would bring my child up to. But when they get to an adult, they do what they want!
@Minster2012 I nearly said that about lockdown but couldn't be bothered.

Anyway- they all shower before sex apparently. Sounds really romantic. 🤣 I shower every evening but I can honestly say I go to the toilet between that and bed. Arrest me now! 🤣

lucyrp · 07/02/2021 16:18

@paintfairy oh yes DS washes his hands too but the whole thing with not washing in a public toilet. My mum was very nit picky about public loos so has passed that on to me she used to lay toilet paper out all along the seat so I didn't have to sit on the actual seat and she never made me wash my hands there unless she could turn the tap on without touching it. I'd just use hand gel or wipes etc when we got back to the car 🙈 not going to lie OH and I have had sex numerous times as soon as he gets through the door from work, right before his shower 🤷🏼‍♀️ do they shower right before and after ? Otherwise they're sitting in sex for hours after ? 😂

paintfairy · 07/02/2021 16:25

@lucyrp omg. I think I'm a vile human being. I don't shower after either. 🤣 I just go to sleep? 🤣 I do obviously if it happens to be earlier in the day, but if it's late at night, like at bedtime, I don't. CBA. I go to the toilet after, that's it.
And do people never have morning sex? Like- on waking? Where was the shower then?
@Minster2012 oh ours are hard floors too. Since buying it, we still need to sort the hall (last to be done) and we've done nothing with the kitchen. We've done bedrooms. But the living room- i wanted carpet but DH wanted hard floor and he won out. Being we've ended up with a dog, it works. The hall floor i hate (old style laminate) but it'll still be replaced with hard floor when it's done. We take shoes off to come in the house but the hall always gets filthy no matter what!

lucyrp · 07/02/2021 16:28

@paintfairy I don't always shower after either. There's been many times when I've had to go to work and felt the after effects seeping out during the day 🤢😂😂 we had sex last night right before bed and I normally go to the loo but couldn't be bothered so didn't get up and go until this morning 🤣

paintfairy · 07/02/2021 16:45

@lucyrp I try to go to the loo because I know they say you should. But there have definitely been times I've fallen asleep!
I honestly can't decide why I get minimal seepage? But often that isn't a problem. 🤣 Must be like the Bermuda triangle, or something? 🤔😂

Thinkingandblinking · 07/02/2021 16:49

Just to chip in on this, I just crash out post bedtime DTD I call it marinading...I think it helps when trying...at least that’s my excuse..

DOB78 · 07/02/2021 16:52

Ah thanks ladies my heads still wrecked but nothing I can do about it now just wait
