Yoga slurping & keep fit POASticking - TTC unconventionally BUS 33

[Minster2012]

So our valentines treats did the trick & we’ve got some BFPs for February...HORRAY!! 🥳♥️😘

We’ve picked up some newbies who come armed with a flesh light for horses, 🐴a penchant for McSteamy & 2 extra Sausages 🐶🍆for us to add to our rowdy bus.

If all else fails we can send our dogs round the country...stud them to each other cos they don’t understand social distancing and get a hella cute bus loads of pups instead, they can then teach us how to do it!

Grab your popcorn for Married for at First Sight, your briefcase for the horse spunk & make your decision on whether you are McSteamy or McDreamy...🩺

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 are 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.

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

That's a line! @DOB78

@dob78 that's looking very promising hun! X

🤣🤣🤣 I knew that title would be reported 🤦‍♀️🤣🤣

@Minster2012 sorry for being so negative 🤦‍♀️ will put my positive pants on now lol. Having a roughish pregnancy but did with my other ds so I think its a boy thing tbh? Sailed through with the girls funnily enough. Typical eh? 🤣🤣

@DOB78 congratulations!!!!! Xx

😂😂😂 the fact the link didn't work from the old thread had me chuckling away as I knew straight away that meant the rebel bus was in trouble for yet more snowflakes crying over our title! Some people just have far too much time on their hands, why take the time to lodge a complaint when you can just scroll on no-one is forcing them to read it! 🤦‍♀️ How some people survive in the real world I'll never know 🤷‍♀️

Thank you @MichaelMumsnet very much ♥️🥰😘

@paintfairy heidi is nuts & yeah that's it "oooo I'm just texting Dan" with the camera there 🤔

@Justanothercyster after 9pm, the watershed?? What is that?? They are complaining about other threads! Whilst we are busy with our horse flashlights 😬🤣😂yessssss to a valentines ovulation you go girl!

@Meredithgrey1 yep definitely missing out you need a mammoth binge session STAT!!

@Kirky658 yep we actually did it 😛😝💪🏻

@DOB78 whoop whoop!! That's great! Go line!

@Catherinettc pregnancy can suck just as much as the ttc sucks its just again no one really talks about it sucking its all portrayed so positively when in reality for some it's a horrendous time. So don't worry about not always feeling positive, you're allowed to say it sucks some times it doesn't mean you want your wee jellybean any less. I had a hellish pregnancy with my DS and despite him being so wanted (and a year trying for him) of course I was unbelievably grateful to be pregnant but it didn't mean I enjoyed the actual pregnancy part. I remember saying repeatedly he was going to be an only child as there was no way I was going thru another pregnancy again.........yet here I am sipping on POM juice wishing to be tortured again 😂

@DKDK123 what u say totally makes sense. I'm so happy and lucky to be having another but tbh I'm a really moany person in general 🤷‍♀️🤣🤣 I'm also a lot older than last time and have things like fibromyalgia and dystonia to deal with this time. But will all be worth it in the end ❤ not actually too long to wait now. Due date is 13 weeks away 😁

Just wondering if I was awake most of the night because of all the sugar I consumed yesterday 🤦‍♀️🤣🤣 I literally ate like a toddler the whole day 🤣🤣

@Catherinettc I've been suffering with my sleep for the last couple of weeks since I'm in my second trimester so god knows what il be like when I get to your gestation 😓 poor OH is already sharing the bed with an extra pillow as I have to put it between my knees and prop my mini bump up. Find it hard getting to sleep, tossing and turning so much in the night and waking up at random times wide awake. Last nights was precisely 2:42am🙄🤣

@lucyrp I'm literally wide awake till like 4 in the morning 🤦‍♀️ it's strange cos with my other conditions I have chronic fatigue so this is totally at the other end of the scale. Usually I could fall asleep in the middle of a conversation lol. Can't believe how quickly ur pregnancy is going its crazy! Are u going to find out the sex?

@Minster2012 was just laughing away at myself when I realised ur ds has a healthier diet than me 🤦‍♀️🤣 I should've used ur recipe for pancakes yesterday 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ xx

@Catherinettc I'm normally the opposite too! I can't stay up past 10pm anymore and in the first trimester I was going to bed at 8 as soon as I put DS to bed and more often than not I fall asleep in his room sometimes 😂 I used to be able to fall asleep on the sofa but nope not anymore. I know I'm 14 weeks now! Even got my maternity leggings out this week so shits getting real now!😂 we definitely were going to but we're kind of liking the idea of a surprise. We have a boys name but I've posted on a few groups about nub theory and everyone's saying girl at the moment which is exciting 🥰🙈

Ladies totally unrelated post to the or pregnancy but anyone have a recommendation for a good moisturiser for dry flaky skin? My forehead is really bad. It has been for around a year now. To the point where it goes really red and stings 😭 its getting embarrassing now because its so noticeable xx

Was supposed to say ttc not the x

@DOB78 lovely line there 🥰

@Catherinettc I love Charlotte tilbury magic cream but it's about £75 quid a pop but so worth it. So good. I treat myself every now and again but use other cheaper moisturisers in the middle. X

@Catherinettc Kiehl's ultra face cream is the only one I'll use now, love the products, so nice to my skin. I know it's a bit pricey but you certainly get what you pay for.

Lil place mark for me then will read through at lunch. Just on last nights mafs chat. So sorry for cheating on you all but as you can see I could not resist!! I'm a bit jel that you get to see tonight's with fresh eyes! I will make sure I'm online between 7-930 to get all your reactions 😬🙈 @Minster2012 @paintfairy @clolo ♥️

Hi can I join you?
It’s my first month TTC. AF might be due in 1 or 7 days, might have ov 10 or 13 days ago maybe ish. 1st cycle since having mirena out, I have no data! I feel sick and my tits look magnificent, should I test or should I note this bra/tshirt combo as a winner and crack on? Help! If someone could throw a bucket of (warm) water over me that’d be grand.

Thanks ladies ❤ ue the best bunch xxx

@notyetamumbuttrying I don't blame u for cheating 🤣🤣 I literally cannot wait for tonight, yes this is what has become of my life 🤦‍♀️🤣🤣 dd watches it with me and goes off in a wee rant its so funny 🤣🤣 but also good to see that I've instilled some sort of moral compass in her lol xx

Just popping in to quickly find out what yoga slurping is 😆

Also for anyone who's seeking pomegranate juice... it turns out the biona organic juice not from concentrate tastes like vinegar 😑 thankfully I didn't order the 6 pack of 1 litre bottles from Amazon - I've just got 2 wee ones to work through 😅

@lucyrp I added a request on Instagram, if you don't mind, blame @Minster2012 for tagging you

@Franklydear I had an inkling it was you! I don't mind at all 🥰

@Minster2012 yes have heard bk and he wants a car parking space...why the fuck the agency showed him round when they know full well it doesn't come with parking?! This is a flat in Greenwich by the river, no way will he get parking for the price it's on for 🤦🏾‍♀️
Got another viewing booked in for sat so hopefully they realise parking is not included 🙄
Omg just read the mnhq title change msgs 🙈😬 I thought we'd get complaints to be fair 😂
@Catherinettc how olds your dd? Glad she knows right from wrong!! She sounds cute 🥰

Ladies today I am incandescent. It's granny's funeral. I've been asking for weeks if they could check with the funeral home/church or whatever if they could air it online as well as everyone does that now due to covid but my request was ignored obv. Instead 2h before the funeral I get a call from dad saying he'll video call me.... nothing like 2h notice when I could have taken the time off?? It's not like I've got work on or anything.

And my dad is renowned at being poor at technology. So you can guess how that went. I ended up just turning it off cause halfway through he muted the call so I couldn't even hear anything. Half the video angles were of the church ceiling and walls anyway...

I'm just raging that it's always the same crap with them - no consideration, planning or foresight with anything they do.

I might wanna add that the only reason they even bothered with the video call is so that I could "at least attend this granny's funeral, as you didn't get to attend the other one" - why did I not attend the other one you might ask? THEY DIDN'T TELL ME ABOUT IT UNTIL IT HAD HAPPENED. "Oh we didn't realised you might want to attend".

@notyetamumbuttrying she's nearly 14. Sweetest girl ever considering she was the toddler from hell 🤦‍♀️🤣🤣

@Juno231 awk thats shit 😪 hope ur ok ❤ xx

@Catherinettc you are totally allowed to say it's sucks, no positive pants needed. DH has said before if I get pregnant I'm gonna be a nightmare as I get ill so easily. I'm gonna hate it, so please are we not alllllllll about the realities of all our journies?? No rose tinted specs here! Only Mumsnet complaints. Like @DKDK123 says here we are wanting to be tortured, in so many ways 🤣😝and @Catherinettc im really not sure he does have a healthier diet 😝

Sorry about that ladies, I got a firm slap in the wrist email from MNHQ

@notyetamumbuttrying @blackcurrantqueen
@clolo @paintfairy I will be behind tonight on MAFS cos I'm in a mates zoom call then need to be 🍆🍆🍆🍆🍆so I will be like LA LA LA LA LA NO SPOILERS LADIES 😭😭😭

Hey @BeastOfBODMAS welcome!! If you wanna test then go for it especially if your boobs are looking grand but pms can give the same bitchy signals as the witch depends if you want to get it outta your system xx

@Tornado2Inc I can't even remember what the yoga slurping was for can you remind @2020mission?? And ahhhhhh yes you got the actually shit tasting one 😝🤣what happened to the seeds?! I mean organic baby but shit 😂
