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

@Kirky658 thank you, I was kind of bricking it but it was fine 😅 naps are the best 🙌🏻

@Juno231 first he'd have to find a woman that our mother approves of 😂 never going to happen! I'm forever telling him that he doesn't have apron strings he still has an umbilical cord! Our mum has made him like that though, he'd have to learn if she just stopped doing it all. My oh is incredulous about it, his mum passed away when he was 17 so he's always stood on his own two feet.
Tell him he'll save his deposit much faster without the expensive clothes!!

@Florence13 thank you 😊

@Minster2012 want to swap kiddos for a day? Dd loves a fort, hides in it and builds Lego for hours 😂 I on the other hand need a million miles an hour buddy to crush cardboard boxes and destroy ancient furniture with 💪🏻

Kirky658 · 16/02/2021 17:01

@juno231 glad AF has shown up, now to the next steps hey! ❤️

Crazydoglady123 · 16/02/2021 17:03

@Gem176 oh no! That sounds awful too! Do you know why?

@Juno231 thank you. Just spoke to the pharmacist and he said only one (although I bought the box) and that if it doesn't work then I need to go to a&e 😬 so here's to praying it does and I spend my night shoving pancakes down my neck in celebration rather than being probed somewhere I don't want to be probed in hospital 🤞

Thinkingandblinking · 16/02/2021 17:07

@Minster2012 loved the way you have built a den, get a cuppa and kick back in it for 5!

@Crazydoglady123 we’ve all been there...no shame here!

AF has arrived 🎉 actually relived as I was a hormonal mess...had some angry sex this morning and feel so much better 😬

I have also decided to jump back into IVF....my gut says it’s the right thing...listening to the gut...and am happy the decision is made in my head!

Get stuffing the pancakes ladies...

Juno231 · 16/02/2021 17:07

@skip86 missing you lady - how are you holding up xxx

@Crazydoglady123 always here to help with poo!

Catherinettc · 16/02/2021 17:13

Thanks everyone. Might have more later 🤣🤣.

Sorry have been a bit absent. Nesting is really starting to take over my life 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤣

I've also been in quite a bit of pain which hasn't been nice but think now it was baby moving down as I've dropped quite a bit and feel like he's going to fall out lol. Seems a bit early at 27 weeks but will just keep an eye on it.

Sorry for all those with af or bfn. I'm hoping valentines and pancakes are the new ttc tools that were needed 🤞

I see nicola sturgeon announced schools in Scotland are going back Monday. Hoping this might be the start of getting back to some sort of normal. Think there's a meeting here (NI) this week about schools so fingers crossed we follow suit although not looking forward to the school run 🤣

Franklydear · 16/02/2021 17:15

@Gem176 yes, but if the next one sleeps would be grand! I love the blunt honestly, specially when some old relation gives him an inappropriate gift (a jumper) do you like it? no, don't ask questions if you don't want to hear the answer....

Franklydear · 16/02/2021 17:22

@Catherinettc i asked ds today if he wanted his classmates back, hopefully soon and he said no, he likes school like this, he wants to propose they have an extra social zoom call on Fridays afternoons if they feel lonely 🤷🙈🤦

Gem176 · 16/02/2021 17:23

@Crazydoglady123 blame those pesky hormones, I'm one of the pregnant ones they can't get rid of 🙈 my digestive system just slows to a complete stop and then like some sort of cruel joke they don't let you out of hospital after a c section until you have pooped. Last time I laughed and said that since I'm going on average about once every 3 weeks they might want to rethink their discharge policy for me 😂 instead they filled me with lactulose 🤢

@Catherinettc I did a happy dance when they confirmed the schools going back 😂 only nursery and p1-p3 though so feel sorry for any p4 mums, one of my pals' son is 8 days older than dd but with cut off dates he is in the class above 🙈

@Franklydear fingers crossed for good sleepers 🤞🏻 can't complain about dd she was a solid 5 hours then back for another 5 at days old. I'm sure by the law of averages the next one will be nowhere near as good 🙈 that's it 100%, no tarting it up or wee white lies. You want an honest answer, ask someone with asd. He doesn't do flattery so hearing something nice from him means the world because it's meant 110%.

larrythelizard · 16/02/2021 17:27

@Vil10 I thought I would wait until end of cycle 6 but now I'm wondering what the harm would be in contacting them. There's another thread I've read where it seems the NHS don't do a lot about it but I guess if I could get some sort of blood test then I'd know if I do have a problem or if it's just a case of keep going and see what happens. Who knows!!

paintfairy · 16/02/2021 17:39

@Gem176 that sounds great! Phew.
@greenfrogs1 welcome 😊
@Juno231 sounds like my parents and my brother. 🙄 What pisses me off is- he does nothing for them. There's been times mum had had to go hospital when my stepdad is at work etc. And she asks me to take her. Fine. But I go round and he's there. But we can't ask him to get out of bed or do anything useful? Oh no. He's 34. 🤬 Yet she cooks his dinner every day, he sends her to the shop like his servant if he wants something, does his washing etc. She's done stuff for me too, don't get me wrong. But I'll at least do things in return!

Minster2012 · 16/02/2021 17:42

@Gem176 def, where should I post him???

@Vil10 I tried to have healthy pancakes, what's on his then?

@Crazydoglady123 oh god you don't want to go to a&e for that eeeekkkkk

@Thinkingandblinking I'd have loved to, the plan was for when I was cooking, but the little shit just jumped on it and ran off. I'm gonna find the 2 dogs cowering in it soon. Once I've fed them 🤣😂but yay for AF though so you say jump back into ivf? Had you stopped it? Put it off?

Yes we've missed @skip86 I hope all is ok 😘🥰

@Catherinettc you are right to nest! Enjoy it!

@larrythelizard call them, def, get on the radar why not?!

Crazydoglady123 · 16/02/2021 17:49

@Gem176 lactulose is horrible! Congratulations on your pregnancy 💖

I can confirm the micralax has worked and I can eat my pancakes 😌🎉

The last TWW I've been adamant I was pregnant as I had read constipation is a sign and also been burping loads (which isn't like me). The cysts were secondary to super ovulation...I released 5 eggs but unfortunately didn't get pregnant. It's so hard to know what's been pregnancy symptoms or cyst problems this last month 😣

Gem176 · 16/02/2021 17:51

@Minster2012 will we meet half way to do handover 😂 are you happy for him to be let loose with a small hammer 🤔
Oh and bus title
From horse spunk to puppy love via progesterone pessary's and a good dose of vitamin D 🍆😜 TMI? Nah, never heard of it mate.... What to expect before you are expecting!

Gem176 · 16/02/2021 17:57

@paintfairy was a bit of a relief, next hurdle is the 23rd. Hoping breaking it all down into chunks stops me getting too overwhelmed!

@Crazydoglady123 thank you, it's actually vile stuff but works bloody wonders! Glad you are sorted now and can enjoy your pancakes 😊🥞

Kirky658 · 16/02/2021 18:21

@crazydoglady123 oh yayy!!! Have a lovely evening now and enjoy your pancakes in constipation free joy 🥞😁

Juno231 · 16/02/2021 18:26

@Crazydoglady123 wooop glad I helped empty your bowels!

Catherinettc · 16/02/2021 18:27

@Franklydear awk thats so cute x my dd is actually doing better at home than she did at school (2nd year) I think she's under less pressure and so it achieving so much more its mad.

I just want the shops to open I'm fed up shopping online lol xx

Crazydoglady123 · 16/02/2021 18:37

Thank you again @Juno231! Feeling pretty sore right now however 😅 however decided I'd rather take a chance on going to a&e for a tear rather than being impacted 🙈

Cooking the pancakes as I type 👌

Florence13 · 16/02/2021 18:44

@Crazydoglady123 you enjoy those pancakes!

@Franklydear aww I love that, add an extra social zoom call that is pretty genius.

Minster2012 · 16/02/2021 18:50

Oooo @Gem176 I like it but a bit long maybe!! His favourite thing is a hammer he'll love you!!

Why have I missed the vitamin D why do we need this & how much?!

So glad it's worked @Crazydoglady123 that's awesome!

Right I'm on pancakes round 3 for DH before a zoom call at 7 and watching this to make sure I can sort a new bus before the end so forgive me

OP posts:
Catherinettc · 16/02/2021 18:50

@Gem176 haha I would be jumping for joy too if mine were younger. I'm lucky that mine are the age they are so don't need any real help. I help the youngest a bit with an essay plan etc but that's about it. Eldest is at uni in Liverpool and only time she needs help is with cooking 🤣🤣 xx

Franklydear · 16/02/2021 18:54

@Florence13 @Catherinettc he had to be at home with me when I shielded, it was bad, the lack of routine meant complete disaster, studying wasn't happening, neither sleep or proper meals cos we didn't sleep, that's one big reason why I chose not to shield again, he really needs school, we are doing so much better this time around, even with the extra risk of public transport and work, but I don't think I'll mention his preference to the parents of his classmates, who are constantly complaining about trying to homeschool and work at the same time 🙈

Minster2012 · 16/02/2021 18:54

Ok I might need help here I've got
Yoga slurping dog spunk in a horse flshl*ght TTC in unconventional ways???

Or puppy's??
Help I'm needed on a zoom call

larrythelizard · 16/02/2021 18:56

Whoop well done @Crazydoglady123

I've done a horrendous workout and I think as a result I shall have pancakes. Probably with a biscoff drizzle and maybe a bit of chocolate?!

And yes @Minster2012 @Vil10 I'll wait for AF to inevitably show up at the weekend then call the dr next week. I feel a bit better now I have a plan!
