The 'rules' from our Just Shagging Originator

Maintain a relaxed attitude at all times - drink if you want too, especially on your birthday. Thread precedent dictates if you drink to excess you will get a BFP (but not recommended)

Covet thy husband and enjoy every minute. Shag at ever opportunity - shag-capes and awesome superpowers optional.

Resist the lure of ovulation predictor kits, Taking Control of Your Fertility and the dreaded First Repsonse. Knowing where you are in your cycle is entirely permissible though!

Going to the doctor is permitted if you've had a stupidly long cycle but beware of the dildo-cam-scan.

Keep acronmyage to a minimum! EWCM is now to be referred to as 'pant snot'.

Keep us up to date with gossip!

Although all most of these rules are well and truely broken!! But we try to chill - honest

Morning ladies!

OK, not sure what is happening - thought AF had arrived on Friday, but it was hardly anything, just a bit of spotting like I'd normally get a day or 2 before the full thing, but still rather crampy. Had very light spotting yesterday morning, an unexpected bit of JSing in the afternoon which would normally bring on AF good and proper, but nothing since then!?

I've also got a dodgy tum still, and can't quite make out if the pains are AF cramps or my IBS playing up - seems to be a mix of both at times. Feeling very icky and hot this morning too.

I'm now at CD31, so if AF does not arrive/restart, I'll test again on Wednesday. Or, I'm trying to get to the doc tomorrow morning about being stressed out by work (hence the IBS playing up at the moment) and will mention it then and see if they want to do a test.

Grrrr I hate this already Grin

NervousNelly · 11/09/2010 22:43

Don't know what happened to my typing. Stupid predictive text on iPhone! That was meant to say zzzzzzzzz of course! Oh and hold should have read holiday. I'm not drunk, honestly! Though have managed holiday Js the day before ov, yeah :)

NervousNelly · 11/09/2010 22:31

Sorry for the late reply! brassica I don't get home from hold till 25th which would be 13dpo. Af due the next day, but doubt I can figure the translation of Poas??

Got loads of other posts to catch up on but pretty tired (4 hours sleep last night) so maybe tomorrow xxxxxxxx!

JosieSmith1 · 11/09/2010 22:00

Evening all, I know I am on late but I wanted a distraction! I am home alone now that Mam has been fed and gin-ed watered and I know there's a pee stick lurking in the cupboard I know this because I went looking for itGrin. Anyway, I know it's faaaar too early so it's pointless wasting it.

Just wanted to say hi and catch up with what I've missed

baby2b · 11/09/2010 18:48

Fingers crossed for you nomore. I have stopped buying clear blue tests as I found them unreliable, especially for the price, and have seen a lot of complaints about them on threads.

I have decided not to early test tomorrow, though my will power has been like a yoyo! :)

Brassica it will definately be our turn to listen! I have really struggled this month [Blush

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 11/09/2010 18:48

As I can't put this on my RL facebook with out giving the whole TTC game away, I would like to say I Dislike the Not Being Pregnant link thingy one of my much younger friends has liked.

Ah that feels better Grin

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 11/09/2010 18:38

Oh Gormers you're glowing Grin (ha ha)

I clearblue digi'ed this morning. Had a violently dodgey stomach last night, so wondering if that might have upset things a bit. Have racked up a few more Boots points on a double pack of first response, one of which I shall be peeing on first thing tomorrow. If nothing on that I'll just have to wait a couple of days I guess.

BrassicaBabe · 11/09/2010 18:36

Cervix pictures?! That's a step more than I need to see milano! Squeamish!

Glad you aren't too pissed about AF harder. Here's to some serious JSing in your future! Grin

WTF indeed nomore Hang in there. No AF either. Hope your mental faculties are still intact.

Yeah! Thanks for the visit gormers Let's hope you get a good few graduates over your side sometime soon

CD14 of 27 for me today. I'm going to drive you all myself bonkers in the next fortnight I can just see it coming!

baby2b · 11/09/2010 14:48

Oh dear nomore, there is nothing worse than a mia AF. What type of test did you use...wasn't a dodgy clear blue one was it?! Are you going to give it a couple of days before testing again?

Josie I'm the opposite...got all the symptoms of AF coming. I thought I was due on the 17th, but I am actually due on Wed 15th. Got sore stomach, munchies and am being hyper efficient. Does anyone else get super organised/burst of energy before Af? I think it is to make up for it being followed by a week of wearing jammies, cuddling my hot water bottle and generally being a slob Grin

Hope all is good on the grad thread and that we all get there soon! :).

gormers · 11/09/2010 11:30

Morning Viroids!!!! Ah, you guys crack me up - I've missed you all!! Just spent an hour in the bath catching up with about 20 pages of your latest thread!!

The April 2011 thread is good, but really nothing like my viroid soulmates on here - I don't think they all have our same level of 'sanity'!! Can't wait til you all move on to the graduate thread, and eventually our viroid childcare threads etc!

Cowboy, or should I say Coyboy, Congratulations! Great news, you must be sooo excited right now!x See you on graduates.

Nomore - I hope you're PIAR results soon match up to your body's symptoms.

Sorry to not be able to individually say hello to you all, but there is soooooo much for me to have caught up on. Can't remember who mentioned it a few pages ago, but the bulk buying tampons and signing up for a new gym programme was the reverse psychology my body needed to give me the BFP!!

See you all soon on Graduates!
xx

JosieSmith1 · 11/09/2010 11:10

Morning everyone

I don't usually get on here at weekends but DH is aslep as he's been up since 3am so I've got some time to myself. Also, he said he'd do the housework today as I've kept on top of it this week so I'm gonna take him up on that as I've been up since 6.30am bringing the horse in from the rain and now I'm knackered!

I'm praying it's implantation, have been having funny flutters in my stomach and just now some teeny tiny cramping but I refuse to get over excited and am supressing the rising hysterics! Grin Although I think I have some symptoms I refuse to let it get to me, also I think I have googled too much and could very easily now be imagining symptoms like last month

I watched some of 16 and pregnant this morning, my god some of those lads and lasses need a firm kick up the whatsits! Shock I got a bist upset though watching all the cute babies and so wanting one of my own, so now I've moved onto supernanny to try and put myself off slightly Grin

Shock at cervix-cam, love how they've got adverts for speculums at the bottom, I can imagine trying to explain that to guests if they discover it! Grin

takethatlady · 11/09/2010 10:32

Congrats cowboy!

Nomore that's weird. How late are you again? Didn't you say you don't get BFPs until late? Maybe try again in a couple of days? Fingers crossed it all works out for you.

WTF with cervix-cam? How did she get the camera up there? It must have had a powerful flash!

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 11/09/2010 08:07

BFN. WTF?

HarderToKidnap · 10/09/2010 23:42

Congrats cowboy! WOO!!

RTOD has arrived. Am completely relieved, weirdly - this cycle was getting too much for my mind. Going to enjoy a few weeks of not wondering whether I'm pregnant and no OPKs this month, just sex every other day or so.

However, my boobs have been hurting like motherf*ckers for ten days now! This is not on!

baby2b · 10/09/2010 21:46

Omg milano!!!! "Tasting your mucus"?! Shock I thought I was been adventurous considering furkling Grin

Interesting photos though :)

milanomum · 10/09/2010 21:07

here are those photos of someone's cervix - TMI alert!!

milanomum · 10/09/2010 21:05

congratulations cowboy that's brilliant news!

psml at josie and ttl - I think you can get pics of it on google - I know there's something about a med student who took pics for a whole month or something.

My stats:
ttc seriously for 4 months, no to opks because, like choc i almost always get pains so it's fairly obvious to me, js-ing about 2 or 3 times a week but every other day from day 9 or 10 until after ov. this cycle we managed 3 nights in a row up to ovulation so I am secretly hopefull...

I have been reading up on pre-seed and I'm thinking of investing. Anyone use it?

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 10/09/2010 20:39

If I get my BFP and make it through Sunday, I'll be there Cowboy Grin. Don't forget the JSers graduate thread too.

cowboylover · 10/09/2010 20:23

Im excited for you NoMoreChoc as would like a friendly viroid in the May 2011 thread.

Yes thats right I am now in the scary Pregnancy topic and even my clear blue said it in words! I would love to share with peole in RL but its just to early so just share with my DH Smile

baby2b · 10/09/2010 19:42

Stats for 30: back to first month of ttc, opks are my guilty pleasure, this month was productive and js at least once a day during ov time, normally every second day throughout the month.

Had a nice take-away and going to watch a movie now as DH is out tonight.

Sorry for AF crowette

BrassicaBabe · 10/09/2010 18:08

Enjoying the mentalness of this thread Grin

Hugs congrats not so coy cowboy!!

Sorry for bitch AF crowette You might need to wrestle the wine bottle away from 30

Cervix is high at fertile times (maybe so high you can't reach it) and low at others. I'm afraid you have to go furlking to find out. Bet you do too! Grin

Stats for 30:
TTCing for 7 months now, yes to the OPKs Blush, shagging more at weekends with an occasional one during the week (DH is busy at work!) and every day CDs11-13ish

Grin

Don't want to tell you my stats 30 I'm scared you'll slap me with a kipper!

Never used an OPK as have felt ov pains most months since my teens. DS concieved with out even trying Blush. On second month of trying, fell last month but lost it, am now 8 days late for AF (so CD36) and am weeing on another stick in the morning (and as I'm going out of town for the day, prolly won't get on the puter til the evening haha).

30andMerkin · 10/09/2010 17:53
NoMoreChocBiscuits · 10/09/2010 17:52

Ohh meant to say, Josie def sounds like could be implantation. The dates fit nicely. Enjoy your 2WW now we've planted that seed in your head Grin

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 10/09/2010 17:46

Crowette can I have some of your chips? Sorry developing a one tracked mind about food. Sorry about your shite day. Hope AF fecks of soon and you can get back to the fun stuff.

I think TakeThat takes the comedy award for her posts today. lots of Grins in your direction today.

Big Grin for you Cowboy Congrats!

When I get my BFP tomorrow and assuming this one sticks (it feels sticky, but still being a bit cautious) we'll be due to tell around the time of my Mum and FIL b'days (they're only a couple of days apart), so that'll make a good surprise for them (heh, we figure Mum'll be thrilled and FiL'll tell us off (rolls eyes!)).
