TWINS?! Oh f**k! 😱 avoiding those 🧀🍆& banging in camper vans; it’s TTC bus 42

So ladies. You thought you got rid of me eh? Like the omnipresent flashing smiley face on the joker clear blue sticks you can’t get past I’m BACK! 🤡😄

The agency driver did the most amazing job I tried to offer a permanent job but apparently temping is much more lucrative & she’s got a gig elsewhere much better paid than driving you reprobates so you a stuck with me I’m afraid, like that rash you’ve been meaning to go to the doctors about or a guy with a cheesey dick you really need to have a conversation with but can’t bring yourself too 🤪�hthank you so much @larrythelizard

We’ve reserved a bench seat each for our newest 2 sets of bus twins, but don’t worry there’s still room for more!

So get those cheese dicks 🧀🍆washed & prepped, park up the camper van, ditch the whey powder & join the team for the banging game!

The price of your bus pass is an embarrassing story please, doesn’t have to go be TTC related and nothing is TMI here so let’s hope the ride (bus not banging) doesn’t take long 🤞🏻🙌🏻

This is where dogs, dicks & chat go hand in hand as we navigate the stormy seas of TTC.

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

Thank you so much everybody, I can't tell you how much it means to have you all behind me 💞

@Catherinettc ouch! How did you manage that? You poor thing!

@Franklydear @Lexber so sorry AF showed up

@paintfairy OUCH! I saw that on Instagram it looks soo sore! 😥

@Vil10 so glad albert looks like he's settling in well with your mum, he is adorable 😍
Sorry about the house that's a shitter but hopefully it just means it's not the right house for you and something perfect will come along 🤞🏼

@larrythelizard hope DS is feeling better and you managed to get your feet in that paddling pool! 🤞🏼

@notyetamumbuttrying im impressed with your managing to stay away from the POAS but I also totally get it 💕

@Lexber minster is the queen of all things menstrual cycle but I also did the grapefruit juice and the evening primrose oil!
I'm an absolute heathen though and could absolutely not stick to one coffee a day 😂

We've had such a busy weekend which has been brilliant as I've been so distracted, but I feel like it's all just about to hit me you know.
In bed with cold water and a bit of rocky road, must remember I'm not eating for two 😂

Catherinettc · 13/06/2021 19:04

@blackcurrantqueen new carpet, 4am...running for a pee before feeding the baby. Nightmare 🤦‍♀️ x I saw ur news! I'm so so happy for you ❤❤ xx

bez91 · 13/06/2021 19:39

@DKDK123 ahh we've had a few of those clear outs and are due another, would be nice to keep things to save money but if no baby is coming along it's bloody hard 💕

@Catherinettc he's such a little cutie 🥰

Mega routing for you @blackcurrantqueen yes!

Lost another 0.3% body fat this week, I'm not counting lbs, doesn't work for me as I was same weight I am now at my fittest and was so much more toned. Although today I'd say I'm pretty inebriated now after watching the football and too much food 🐷 on CD13 already which has wizzed by with no tracking 🥳

Dollybird89 · 13/06/2021 19:46

I'm here for a rant again 😂 ment to be going away to visit family on Friday until Sunday.. I've had the dog booked into kennels nearly a month ago and OH STILL hasn't booked anywhere for us to stay FFS... Now he's getting all stressed as most of the decent places are full and only the dingy air bnbs are left or really expensive... And he's the one complaining when it was his idea! But coz he's the one paying Im not the one booking so god help me where we will end up 😭🤦

Sorry for always ranting .. seems to be all I do these days 🤷🤦

larrythelizard · 13/06/2021 20:30

Thanks @blackcurrantqueen he perked up for 30 mins or so but then crashed again, high temp when calpol wore off so that means no nursery and a covid test tomorrow. Can't wait to try and juggle work and poorly boy (he never wants DH when ill). And i obv can't go to the gym. Humph.

Beautiful boy @Catherinettc, your tailbone sounds sore!

That's a decent fat loss @bez91 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Always here to listen to a rant @Dollybird89!

I'm now accidentally falling into the trap of dreaming of giving DH a positive test for Father's Day next Sunday...AF probs due on Thurs...! 🤦🏻‍♀️

feliznavidad2 · 13/06/2021 20:50

@larrythelizard sorry to hear little one isn't well. It's so hard when they're poorly, let alone now when you have to isolate etc.

AF not due until a week on Weds here. OH would probably think it's an OPK if I waved a positive HPT at him on Fathers Day and thought he'd got lucky 😂 (no, but seriously, good idea if the stars align etc etc and give me a BFP.) Otherwise at least I've ordered 'Father's Day cupcakes' see: any excuse to eat cake. 🙄

feliznavidad2 · 13/06/2021 20:51

Have to add, that isn't my usual tactic of letting OH know it's FW - 'waving a positive OPK at him' 🤔😬🤣

Kirky658 · 13/06/2021 20:54

Ranting from me too sorry.... Had my parents round for a bbq this arvo, had a lovely time. My brother waltzes in back from a house party which he shouldn't have been going to in light of covid so I said to him hope you've been careful, dead flippantly he replied he'd done a covid test I said well it wouldn't come up after you went last night. I then got upset and cried (hormones) and I said he didn't care about his unborn niece due to risks of covid etc, he got all snippy with me and my DH told him to go home as he'd upset me then my parents buggered off home and sided with him!!!! Fuming

Minster2012 · 13/06/2021 20:55

Wait hold on Father's Day next Saturday??? Errrrrr DH sorted but not my actual father 🤪thanks for the reminder @larrythelizard & I hope DS feels better & not the plague 🤞🏻

@Dollybird89 I have to say I would be fuming 😬bloody men & that what we are here for 🤣

@bez91 that's great on the loss you go girl & I couldn't log on Friday night as I was getting absolutely wasted I'm afraid with our neighbours & NO FOOD 🙄

@Catherinettc your gorgeous boy look at him but falling?! Eeek hope you are ok! Has the reflux improved?

@DKDK123 thank you hun, I have put my Amazon order into "important items" folder on my email but here's hoping I don't have to use it😬

@Vil10 there will be a better one, remember how I was distraught about the other one & getting gazumped? It ended up working out better 🤞🏻I'm really hoping it's the same for you guys

@paintfairy you were 3 hours away? Jesus. Glad youve got a new too bit sorted though

@blackcurrantqueen I've been thinking of you all day darling I'm so pleased for you. Honestly you give hope 🥰

So I've been cramping today, low cervix it was super soft earlier then got firm so I think AF will be incoming

Circus was fab earlier just the right length for 2 toddlers though it was HOT in the tent 🤣🙄🤡🎪the circus picked on nephew to stand up & do something, he promptly burst into tears 🤞🏻

TWINS?! Oh f**k! 😱 avoiding those 🧀🍆& banging in camper vans; it’s TTC bus 42

@larrythelizard sounds exactly like what DD and lots of her friends have had in the last couple of weeks! Her covid test was negative so hopefully he has the same virus and his will be the same! 🤞🏼🥰

@Minster2012 circus looks good fun! You are a wonderful human being 🥰 let's get this AF out the way and get you firmly back on the bus!!! X

larrythelizard · 13/06/2021 21:12

Thanks @feliznavidad2 he doesn't usually cuddle and I had the best cuddles so not all bad! I very much doubt it's covid (not a lot of it round here atm) but can't be too careful! Waving an OPK is about as subtle as I get...although more just generally being naked and waiting than flinging wee around!!

It's hard @Kirky658 when people are just thoughtless.

Love the neon lights in the tent @Minster2012! And yes, Father's Day on Sunday. I always have to be organised as my parents are abroad!

Tornado2Inc · 13/06/2021 21:27

@Amy00 what a line!!! Even on the cheapie! Huge congrats!!! Oh, it's applied from the other end? I thought you'd get some sort of thing ills or something!

@Catherinettc what a handsome little guy 😍 that made me all broody 😂

@Dollybird89 ah, he sucks! Honestly, men can have the best of intentions and still end up so thoughtless!

@Kirky658 oh, that sounds so stressful, they really should know better ☹️

@Minster2012 wow, that looks amazing! Loving the lights!

Wait, I thought Father's Day was today?

notyetamumbuttrying · 13/06/2021 21:30

@Catherinettc aww look at the little man! So cute 🥰
@Haiyaa haha thank you! I really want to give you all good news! Both sets of parents know and sisters, sil and a few friends so we've got a few to tell with either outcome 😬
@blackcurrantqueen I just don't want the bubble to burst just yet, a few more days of ignorance might be on the cards! 🤭
Aw bed and rocky road does sound good tho! 👍🏾
@bez91 good going on the body fat! Sounds like a fun day for you today 👏🏾
@Dollybird89 eek that's frustrating! Hope he gets somewhere sorted soon! 🙏🏾
@larrythelizard ahh we've all been there! Keep strong 😘
@Minster2012 pics look awesome! Glad you had a good time 😊 ah your poor nephew 😂 it's actually awful being picked out of a crowd in front of ppl tho, I would've cried too 😆 shame you think AF is on her way merry way! Stay away wench 🧙
@Tornado2Inc Father's Day is next Sunday x

Minster2012 · 13/06/2021 21:48

Father's Day today 🤔nope you gotta week @Tornado2Inc! What does OH think of the positive test?!

@notyetamumbuttrying are you still waiting for 15th at least? Honestly my poor nephew was like 😩😬eek! It wasn't a scary clown 🤡though!

@Kirky658 eek that's not ideal but honestly you should be ok, sorry the hormones made you down 🤨🤗

@feliznavidad2 waving a positive OPK in his face 😂🤣😅noted for potential titles 😋

OP posts:
bez91 · 13/06/2021 21:50

@larrythelizard missed your DS unwell ☹️ really hard juggling work and childcare, hope he's better soon! I always fall into that 💕 Father's Day, birthdays etc -you're not alone.

Oh your poor nephew @Minster2012 I think I'd do the same - hate attention. Hope it's not AF, what CD are you?

@notyetamumbuttrying love your ignorance approach 😊 mega routing for you 🤞🏼

Tornado2Inc · 13/06/2021 21:53

@Minster2012 he doesn't know yet!!! I was thinking of telling him on AF day just to be sure it's not CP (as I do like to have those). Not like he knows we've been actively trying for a year... 😂

Minster2012 · 13/06/2021 21:53

@bez91 I'm CD30 after MC so it's all bets off really. I've had a cycle of 36 days before then got my BFP from ovulation around CD21/22 so in theory there's time. I had some OV pains last Sunday Monday but I don't think it's actually "popped" so f knows 🤨🙄

OP posts:
Vil10 · 13/06/2021 22:11

@Catherinettc oh it was so sad watching thst yesterday wasn't it!! Caolan is beautiful!!

@DKDK123 I think you should definitely get a pup!!

@blackcurrantqueen that's definitely what we're thinking, it obviously wasn't meant to be and something better will come along!

@bez91 well done on the body fat loss!! And yasss to your cycle flying!!

@Minster2012 everything definitely happens for a reason and the right house will come at the right time! So glad you had a nice time at the circus! Af can do one! However if she does arrive, we can move her swiftly along after a few days and you can be back on board raring to go🍆

Catherinettc · 13/06/2021 22:27

@Minster2012 no reflux here, must have been someone else. Just bad bad Nappies 🤦‍♀️🤣🤣

@Tornado2Inc he's a wee cutie. I can't even moan during the night cos he's so cute 🤣 although he did pee on me today so wasn't so cute then 🤣🤣

@Vil10 was the most horrific thing I've ever watched. I was shaking like a leaf 💔 really puts it all into perspective x

I still can't get who everyone is on Instagram 🤦‍♀️🤣 whoever had a free up today at 10dpo I'm so so excited for you!! Also the person I thought was @Juno231 isn't so now I'm totally confused 🤣🤣 I know a few for sure but the rest I'm just guessing lol. @paintfairy I realised today because of her injury xx

notyetamumbuttrying · 13/06/2021 22:35

@Minster2012 yeah that'll be the absolute earliest yeah. Ah poor lad, I'd be distraught tbf. It'll build character 😉
Really hope AF stays away and you get another bfp! 🤞🏾

@bez91 cheers chick! How's things with you?

@Catherinettc the 10dpo frer was @Tornado2Inc I won't say who Juno is as I'd be writing her name on here. If you can tell who I am, send me a msg and I'll let you know who I know 👍🏾

Catherinettc · 13/06/2021 22:40

@notyetamumbuttrying nope no idea who u are 🤣🤣 I will try figure it out though 👍 will keep me amused 🤣🤣 xx

blackcurrantqueen · 14/06/2021 06:08

I am the person who is not Juno if that helps anybody figure out who I am 😂😂😂

Minster2012 · 14/06/2021 07:35

@Catherinettc aghhhh sorry it was @Ltay2 with the reflux, well not her obviously, her wee boy, hope he's feeling better. God the nappies, we had 2 years of that 😬loving the Insta games ☺️

@Vil10 no you are totally right, it's fine and a step towards getting back on track. I had a spot of blood last night and bad cramps all night so was fully expecting AF to greet me this morning but nope so I def think on the way

@notyetamumbuttrying character building! Yes should be! That's how I should've described it to SIL! Any more nausea? Anything else to report? So that's tomorrow then....are you gonna or stay til the end?

Love that @blackcurrantqueen "I'm not Juno" 😂

OP posts:
Ltay2 · 14/06/2021 07:53

@Minster2012 It was me ☺️ he has everything going haha, cmpa and reflux. Gaining loads of weight now and although the reflux still flaring up he's generally a lot happier.

notyetamumbuttrying · 14/06/2021 08:32

@Catherinettc I'll give you a hint. I really like lavender 😉
@blackcurrantqueen haha 😂no help at all!
@Minster2012 didn't have any yesterday, we'll see what today brings! Nothing else to report. So yeah could be tomorrow but I'm
So scared I might put it off. Suggested the same to Dh and he was fine with it so we'll see if I feel the same by tonight.
Bummer that AF is on her way! I suppose the only up is that your cycles aren't too out of whack!
@Ltay2 aww good to hear he's doing well! So cute 🥰
