Ice Skating Lake Spermo on our AIBU chip-piss-sticks TTC Bus 32

[Minster2012]

Are we sitting comfortably MN?? Clutching them pearls tightly?? Are we being reasonable?? I doubt it!

Good, cos we’ve CUM TO PISS ON YOUR CHIPS...oops sorry, our Piss sticks, and use pearls in our ass...well, it’s a special occasion right??? ❤️🥰🎁💌

We’ve got the fastest TTC 🚌in the UK & we talk like it’s a WhatsApp group so be prepared...but don’t worry cos long as you pop in and out & say hello once in a while you can sit on top, we’ve got room for you to chill out if TTC gets too much.

We thought we might make it to Valentine’s Day ♥️💓 but FOR THE THIRD TIME no!

If you want to talk most things other than TTC we are the right bus, tv, (married at first sight Australia what the hell?!) & pissing off the rest of Mumsnet.

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 and we are now OWED BIG.

Valentine’s Day Menu....

• Some Ladies ordered new undies 🙌🏻
• Some Ladies ordered sticks to piss on 🤞🏻
• Some Ladies ordered no undies 👌🏻
• Some Ladies ordered wine & chocolate 🍷
• The bus driver ordered BFPs all round

Whatever we all get for Valentines, we’ll be here for support ❤️🥰😍

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

@notyetamumbuttrying it's on the 23rd tho it's just changed from an in person to a telephone appointment.

Go get it! @Vil10 🍆

I have zero idea where I am in my cycle, that last CP has sent things way out of whack. I dont think I ovulated this month and I can't tell by my trusty temps which usually follow the same pattern as they have been up and down like a yoyo all cycle, OPKs have been dark but no peak for ages and RHR is doing a merry dance. 🤷‍♀️ Feel quite bloated and meh tho so hoping AF is on her way this week to re-set everything. Think it's the only time I've been wishing AF to come 😂

Marking my place, finally caught up!

Congratulations @DJmum83 ❤️❤️❤️

Nothing much new from me, suffering a lot with carpel tunnel this week especially at night which is so uncomfortable and annoying but shouldn't complain I suppose, baby boy will be worth it. 32 weeks on Saturday 🥰

I never knew that about McFly @Kirky658!! I really am showing my age ha x

Oooh champagne sounds lovely @notyetamumbuttrying, great way to end dry January. We did dry November thinking it might help our chances ttc 😂 so we said no to dry jan when it didn't. You've really kept it going into Feb too! My DH got champagne for this weekend too. We're not Valentine's people at all but any excuse for bubbles 😋 Having a glass of red now in advance of the witch showing up!

@DKDK123 hope you still get good use out of it!
@MartyMcShy mainly because it's only the alcohol in the flat 😂 and it's Dh bday Saturday so double celebrations 🎉
@Ltay2 hope you feel better soon! 32 weeks wowza!! X

Well catching up after DS been ON ONE! & THE DOG TOO! And just done a joe wicks HIIT if I never have to do another burpee again it will be too soon. I'm dripping. @Dollybird89 I'm saving that one for tomorrow as DH won't do that

@MartyMcShy well ask away, if you've been reading then you know we have no boundaries here & I've been through several IVFs including a successful round with surrogacy to my best friend in 2017 born in 2018, that was "our first" ivf (her third birth) then 3 ourselves but not done the stimulation phase since 2018. I'm hoping to do that myself again but who knows after my last transfer got cancelled last week so there's lots of us in the boat! A lot of men have the "we should be able to make babies naturally" thoughts. Mine did. You are making me laugh with the McFly's/Marty's you lot! I'm with you @MartyMcShy 🤣♥️

@Gem176 I used to eat dry cereal! Not weetabix though

@notyetamumbuttrying oh god that's so shit. No wonder you feel down I was going to say it's DH's birthday isn't it. Are you ok with going private for it all? They should get you in quick right? I echo @Franklydear little bastards, but we are here to cry with, we'll take the pain & straighten the crown 🥰

@Juno231 never feel stupid to ask, keep asking

@larrythelizard I've showered then had a bath twice a day before if I've exercised but not wash hair 🤪

@Vil10 seeeeeeeeee bonk bonk bonk bonk

@blodyn91 makes you normal I think!! You moved yet?!?!!!

@Justanothercyster yassssssss to the carpet burns!!

@DKDK123 not listening to RHR on this bus!!

@Ltay2 32 weeks?????? 😱😱😱what's carpel tunnel??

So DS been on one today, which is ok, but then DDOG1 the cockapoo started getting really weird. He's 7, castrated at 4, hasn't humped anything for years. Just when I wanted to cook He all of a sudden was pulling the bedding out of a crate we have in our hallway & chewing it. NEVER does that. Has chewed a hole in it. Toddler starts pulling it off him. I stop them, toddler thinks HILARIOUS. DDOG grabs it back & starts humping it toddler grabbing it off again. I shut crate with cushion in. Continue cooking. Half an hour of this continues as DS opens crate & both dogs run round with toddler in tow all pulling this cushion around (NOT NEW BEEN THERE ABOUT 2 years) so now there's 2 dogs, one randomly humping a cushion & a toddler running round as I cook & DS decides the cushion needs to go on top of ladders we have to get it away from the dogs. With his teddies on top.

DH walks in to this as dog is mid hump. I'm like 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷‍♀️
Did I mention DS is allergic to dust???

WTAF??

@Minster2012 sounds like a fun day for dogs and toddlers in your house 😂

Currently laying in bed bottoms up trying to avoid lake spermo and keep those swimmers in 😂
Day one of potential FW 😂 or may not quite be there who knows.

@Gem176 fire looks gorgeous !!

@notyetamumbuttrying ugh at the missed hospital call, what a shame. Will keep fingers crossed it's not what you're expecting and they're moving your appt forward or something😂😘

@Minster2012 well done on the hiit! I'm doing to total cardio workout tomorrow.
I'm slowly getting over it now, especially after that entertaining mafs, you need to catch up stat! Well we think we can get the Sa via the gp, and I can do a home amh check. Need to call clinic tomorrow to see if they'll accept that.
Haha your evening sounds as nuts as ever 🤪😂

@blackcurrantqueen haha imagine! 🤣 I'll be eating my words tomorrow if it is. I'll be ringing first thing so expect an early update from me tomorrow! Keep those legs up girlie! 😏

Maybe is because I am really tired and feeling unwell, but I swear I still have cramps, nausea, and sore boobs, and a very bloated tummy, haven't eaten much either.... maybe I am just going mad, but have ewcm and a tiny bit of spotting again.. . I don't claim to understand anything anymore

Caught up on MAFS, hate Martha.

@blackcurrantqueen have you put your legs down yet??

Not got far on a blog bit I'm doing

@Franklydear nope no clue, except a bug?

@Gensola did you hold off testing? You going to do it tomorrow? Good luck if so xx

@Minster2012 yeah what a knob she is! As if she stuck up for lying Jess! 🙄
You need to insta stalk cyrell btw 👀

@Kirky658 hahaha yes I thought the same about Mcfly!!

@blodyn91 similar here! We have Mexico in June (IF it goes ahead) and because of Zika virus I'm wary of going there either pregnant or when trying because it's advised against, we only have until 8th April to cancel the holiday so this cycle and March is our last chance!!

@notyetamumbuttrying Thankyou🍆 hope you're feeling a bit brighter x

@Justanothercyster it'll definitely come round quickly!!🤞🏼

@DKDK123 🍆🍆

@Minster2012 and if it is too late, hopefully there's still some spermies up there🤞🏼 your night sounds very eventful and I can even imagine it😂😂

@Minster2012 just gave in and went for a wee 😂

@Franklydear is it worth taking another test? Xx

@Vil10 I am thank you! MAFS helped 😂

Hi ladies wow a chatty day - 6 pages today!!!

@DJmum83 Ahhh look at your and your BFP 🎉🎉 congratulations! Keeping everything crossed for some lovely progression 💕

@minster2012 your house is a madhouse hahaha 😂 I don't know how you have the energy.

I'm knackered today. Came to bed at 9pm (which as you know I'm a night owl so this is practically mid afternoon for me usually), Ive spent an hour (!!!) catching up on today's chat and now I'm going to go to sleep. No symptoms to spot today, except for my tiredness. Nothing to report.

Hope everyone is okay. Welcome to the few newbies who've joined us 👋🏻

@notyetamumbuttrying @Minster2012 I know time is flying now! Carpel tunnel is something to do with swelling in the wrist, can't remember exactly what but it makes my hands and fingers tingly and numb but can still feel and move them so a bit different to when you have a dead arm. At night as the fluid builds up from being still it gets worse and I woke up twice last night feeling like I had ice cold water running inside my arm and hand, it's very odd it's like a burning sensation but icy which I know makes no sense 😂 Currently sleeping in hand and wrist splints to keep my wrists from bending which helps slightly but not the most comfortable thing to sleep in 🤦🏼‍♀️

@Minster2012 it must be a full moon or something, mad house! 😂 maybe DDOG1 keeps getting some of the “bonk” vibes you are sending our way 🤣🤣🤣

@Vil10 carry on bonking! Never mind lake spermo, it’s going to be the spermo sea 🥴 little egg riding the wave like the Jolly Roger 🏴‍☠️

@larrythelizard how are those OPK’s coming along?

@Juno231 I'm a big believer in no such thing as a stupid question and despite health care professionals sometimes being a little brusque they are in fact great when it comes to questions. It sort of brings them back to earth and they realise we aren't all as clued up as they are.

@MartyMcShy no ulcer but I do get an absolute belter of a hormonal spot that looks like Krakatoa 🙄 family in Ireland and they have private health care too as the public system is dire.

@larrythelizard I can't talk I'm shower and a bath daily 🙈 I just can't be hooped hair washing at night time 😂

@Kirky658 I was melting within half an hour 🥵

@DJmum83 are you a section mamma too? I've only had one and have to say it was actually pretty good! Officially counted as an emergency as I went into labour two days before my elective date but was still a rather chilled affair despite the uncontrollable shaking 🤣 planning the same again this time round.

@blodyn91 I want to be as chilled as you are, I was first time round and this time I'm a nervous wreck!!!

@Justanothercyster what could you have been up to 🤔🤣 hope it was worth the burns 😉

@Minster2012 can't beat and handful of Frosties for a wee sugar rush 😂
Sorry but your troops are hilarious 😂😂😂 vino to destress?

@blackcurrantqueen it was fab but I'm not sure what the deal is with the vents etc so it roared for a while and had me melting and I had no idea how to slow it down 🤷🏻‍♀️😂 I'm a shit country girl! Have you watched the big lebowski? I'm picturing you as Julianne Moore 😂

@notyetamumbuttrying I'm with Blackcurrant and hoping it's a good change rather than a cancellation!

@notyetamumbuttrying will def insta stalk cyrell, my DH says "all the women are f ing nuts the men look normal" I don't think they do love 😳but I do want to punch a lot of them in the face!

@Franklydear I'd def test again next week, you said the AF was only short if I remember rightly??

@Sausage1990 enjoy a rest and really hoping the tiredness is a symptom you are spotting 🙌🏻🤞🏻(you tested way too early as we know)

@Ltay2 well that sounds like a barrel of laughs. Not! Splints? I hope you are just resting up a lot!

@Haiyaa it must be a full moon. Honestly!

Then as we know I'm now done with AF & now into limbo. So we can do whatever. So let's consider I'm now CD5 on a who the f knows. We aren't actually TTC here, just having sex. But if a miracle BFP appears I'm not gonna say no 🤣

DH just gone "are we DTD tonight or tomorrow/sat or shall we have a night off?" Starting a 5 min convo...we had tonight off. Tomorrow /sat (when we are celebrating V day) ♥️❤️ it is then

Is Romance dead?

Think I have finally caught up.

@Minster2012 I love your posts, your house sounds just like mine. Your DS is a wee cutie.
I love the look of inside your house.
Wish I had your energy really need to get back in to my jogging I done well the first lockdown but been terrible lately.
Xx

@Gem176 yeah I sure am I have had 3 this will be number 4 section.
First was an emergency as I didn't progress then her heart rate started to drop, second was a failed induction and 3rd wouldn't even let me try I went in to labour 2 weeks early with him.
So I don't know any different to sections the first time I was so sad as I had imagined giving birth but now as long as they come out safe and sound who cares what way. Xxx

@larrythelizard woke up DH laughing at that thread 😂 thanks for the entertainment.

@InkyPaper I had loadssss of ewcm last month in my TWW, maybe I didn't ovulate when I thought I did who knows 🤷‍♀️ just get on it just incase

@DJmum83 congratulations to you!!!

@blackcurrantqueen we sound similar although no frickin idea how far away I am from ov, got a high OPK reading today so hopefully we're ov buddies 😉
Good luck with lake spermo...it's only taken me 15 years but after all this lake spermo chat on here and my determination I think I've finally found a method to avoid lake spermo and may be becoming a Bermuda 🇧🇲 triangle girl 🥳

@Minster2012 mad house alright 😂 I don't know how you have the energy for HIIT workouts at this time. I've been doing the Sweat programme but a bit behind so going to have to get them all in over the weekend 😊

@DKDK123 that's interesting. I can't believe how different it is depending on where you live! My forms were different. I also wonder why some places do hsg and some hycosy? I don't know which mine favour. Not looking forward to either.
@notyetamumbuttrying I can't work out why your appointments keep getting cancelled when everywhere else is going ahead? And i don't think they do accept home amh tests. @Juno231 has already done one and she's now getting a proper one, so I'm really intrigued as to whether the results will be similar!

@Minster2012 mafs. Just no words. Why did nick not ever say about jess and him? I want to punch her in the face. And Martha sticking up for her? Wtf?

Here's a fun one for the night owls ....

Tell me the best/worst backhanded compliments you've had... www.mumsnet.com/Talk/_chat/4162577-Tell-me-the-best-worst-backhanded-compliments-youve-had

And @bez91 what's your technique for being a Bermuda Triangle then do share!!!

@DJmum83 thank you darling! It's mental. How I think we can actually add another child in I don't know.

@Minster2012 if anybody can manage it, it's you. Xx

@Franklydear - sorry your still cramping hope you feel better soon.

@Sausage1990 enjoy your sleep. Have everything crossed for you xx

@Ltay2 sorry to hear you have carpal tunnel my uncle had it can be very uncomfortable. Hope the splints works xx

@Vil10 keep DTD and fingers crossed

@blackcurrantqueen - keep those legs up x

I'm off to sleep thanks again for all your lovely messages.
Just pray my wee bean sticks xx
