The (updated) '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). Horse-riding and other dangerous activities are also actively encouraged.

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

Keep acronmyage to a minimum! EWCM is now to be referred to as 'pant snot'. Try not to get sucked in by Fertility Friend (at least for a while), but knowing where you are in your cycle and furkling for pant snot is most definitely allowed. If you're a midwife, you can even get other midwives to furkle for you Grin

Keep us up to date with gossip!

Most of these rules are well and truly broken!! But we try to chill - honest

miffles my first ever post on MN was on that thread. I was pissed off with DH about saying he might not be able to come to a ttc doc's appointment because he might have a parents' evening (even though he knew he probably didn't have a parents' evening). He loves the old parents' evening excuse, and I stupidly thought (having read the MN conception pages) that we were both meant to go and have some sort of full medical before ttc Grin

Obviously I was wrong, but people went crazy, like I was planning on murdering him in his sleep or something.

That thread is bonkers. Ignore them!

Yum i don't care if the apple shot isn't classy its lovely and hits the spot thanks for the shot TTL
Miffles my eldest son is away with his dad til friday been gone for a week and a half now. Im always a moody mare when one of the kids aren't home! Please excuse my ignorance but what on earth is clomid?

Miffles · 02/11/2010 18:47

(I've been wondering about Josie too - and Eskarina)

Miffles · 02/11/2010 18:47

Welcome back gormers! And yes, in time for our party. Glad you brought champagne cocktails - bit more classy than TTL's apple vodka shots. Wink

The other BFPs seem to be staying with us too..and why not? I hear they don't chat quite as much as us on the other side. Smile

why so gloomy 321? Hugs your way. Gormers - you'll see we've utterly flaunted the normal MN no hugging thing. We're free and easy with the PDA now!!

Clomid is sitting by my bed - waiting waiting waiting for the smearing to become spotting to become slightly heavier until I think it might actually count as AF and day 1. Bit worried I won't know when it really counts. Does it really matter, do you think? May google it....

Oh - viroids - please don't let me do this again. I think we need a new thread kipper for this misdemeanor....
I posted on "am I being unreasonable?" about something completely un-conception related. They were HORRIBLE!!! Totally vile! I was in tears - they were calling me a bitch Shock. Only read half of the messages and got so upset I shut it down. Don't know what overtook me to do post there - but I do not recommend it!! Wolves! Come over in a cold sweat just thinking about the experience Sad

You lot are way nicer than that Smile

takethatlady · 02/11/2010 18:37

PPS (sorry). WHERE is josie? Hope she's okay ...

OP posts:
takethatlady · 02/11/2010 18:37

PS, 321, here's your shot ... down it, down it, down it!

takethatlady · 02/11/2010 18:36

gormers do hang around. Nowhere else is as good as here :)

I had a period-style cramp in my lower back so bad in my seminar that I was trying to talk to them about a stupid poem and nearly crying as I did it. They just stared at me ...

Obviously have now googled this but it was actually a google that set my mind at rest, for once. Lack of ms though, so still denying that I don't really belong on this thread.

I do occasionally retch, about an hour after eating, and especially if I think of creamy stuff or milk. But I think this may just be the memory of the McDonald's milkshakes, raked up from the depths of my memory ...

miffles woohoo! Does this mean you can start the Clomid in a few days' time?

OP posts:
321sanitygone · 02/11/2010 16:56

I'm moody as hell so getting very drunk sounds good to me...now who had those apple shots?????

gormers · 02/11/2010 16:38

And milano - posted on the other thread, but glad to hear you're feeling a little more positive about things, thinking of you, and know it'll work out for you soon.xx

gormers · 02/11/2010 16:36

Hello Hello Hello!!

Have taken a few days off work (semi-emergency planned sick leave/annual leave for incessant vomiting!!) and have spent a large part of the day so far catching up on all the JS threads from where I left off. Blimey - you chicks can chat! And I miss you!! Grin

And look, I've walked straight in on a party! Such timing!! Before I don a party hat, blow a streamer, pick up my first alcoholic drink in far too long, and change the party music to Living On A Prayer (Ultimate Choone!), I firstly must say a massive "Whoop Whoop" to Vallinna!! Grin Grin Grin

Hello to all the new faces, good to see that our JS antics don't scare off all the fresh-faced triers!! Although would Frak really approve of the escalation of rule-breakage?! Wink I'm sure's she mellowed now, as the relaxin hormone kicks in - allow those rules to bend and stretch a leetle more!!

takethat - I am LOVING the fact you got sacked from MaccyDs!!

And Miffles, love your party dress!! Wear it now whilst you can!x Ahh, for a slinky dress...

Anyhoo, some exciting news is that after vomiting every day (sometimes 8 times!) for over 10 weeks, I now haven't been sick for 2 days Shock (well, such a small amount this morning that I barely count it compared to my now normal standards!). Maybe, at 17 weeks, just maybe, the 'morning' sickness is over, and I may be about to start glowing???? Crickey, pass me a champagne cocktail and a party popper someone!!

Good to catch up with you all, might hang out here a bit more if that's ok.x

Miffles · 02/11/2010 16:03

Definite spotting when I just went to the loo. Whoop whoop! Never have I been so pleased for my short cycles! Only 12 days since last AF, and I'm not complaining!

Is no one else joining the thread party? Grin

BrassicaBabe · 02/11/2010 14:51

miffles I'm normally an information monster, but I didn't read the clomid leaflet Confused

Miffles · 02/11/2010 14:35

Apple shots sound great - pass me a couple! Not sure whether BB can be trusted with alcohol though, not when sending those IM to her boss!

takethatlady · 02/11/2010 14:30

Grin bb. If you're not careful you'll get the sack. Take it from me Grin

The best thing about the thread party is that I can drink. Woohoo! Apple vodka shots all round ...

OP posts:
BrassicaBabe · 02/11/2010 14:27

Oops, just made my manager actually LOL on a conf call with big-wigs by sending him an IM "You just agreed to do something illegal with a donkey!" because he wasn't listening.

Miffles · 02/11/2010 14:26

BB - just read the info leaflet on clomid - flipping scary!!

Miffles · 02/11/2010 14:26

Yay!! Party!! I'll bring helium balloons, so we can all talk in squeeky voices. And Sour Cream and Chive Pringles. Love them at the moment. And lots of wine. And anything chocolate. Maybe some Maccy D straws to make TTL feel at home!! Wink

BrassicaBabe · 02/11/2010 14:25

Boring conf call! So boring I can MN at the same time! Grin

Grin for "Don't cry! When I was your age I got sacked from Dreamland". Shoot me now then eh?! Wink

Yeah for thread party! There are certainly enough drugs going around!

takethatlady · 02/11/2010 13:41

Good luck with the bleeding and the sniffing vallinna. I hereby declare a thread party in your honour :) Oh, and for miffles and her Clomid, and for 321 as a welcome party. Good to have another one in our clutches midst...

crowette that is so shocking from QEQM. What an utter joke. Can't believe your SIL worked in the same Maccy D's Grin I got sacked by a man. He actually said 'Don't cry! When I was your age I got sacked from Dreamland [crappy seaside funfair, for those few members of this thread not from Thanet!]. And now look at me! [40-year-old Duty Manager at McDonald's].' I cried even more.

I did used to hide in the straw cupboard under the stairs though, in an attempt to pass the time ...

vallinnapod · 02/11/2010 13:12

Am bleeding!! Wooohooooo!! Dancey Dancey!! Wooo hooo!! Grin

Going in for a scan tomorrow. Now told being told on short protocol Hmm....oh well. Off to sniff Grin

Welcome 321!

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 02/11/2010 12:49

Hello and Welcome 321 (great name BTW) I won't wave as I'm likely to inadvertantly throw something at your head, but please come in and make yourself comfortable Grin

Crow which part of Scotland did you to live in?

One thing I've learnt now matter what they're called (chav, bogun, ned, feral, westie, yokel...) these people are the same the world over .. and honestly not sure where I'm going with this, just loving the term judgey pants today. Hmm

BrassicaBabe · 02/11/2010 12:43

Welcome 321 Maybe you can be the one to bring some sanity to this thread? Wink

Yeah for cramps vallinna Grin

Hmm At 3DPO I wonder when I can start working through my 100 internet pg tests Grin

321sanitygone · 02/11/2010 12:32

Thanks miffles. I started reading through it and got to page 2 and realised that child number 2 was not gonna let me read 23 pages! I'll catch up tonight once he's in bed!

Miffles · 02/11/2010 12:11

Welcome 321 - sounds like you'll fit right in here. Although, if you've read through our thread, you'll realise we're not as sane as we like to make out. Hence the thread kipper!!

Vallinna - glad seems liks AF is on the way. Send her my way, will you! Sounds like she's doing the rounds and bizarelly, we're all pleased to see her!

321sanitygone · 02/11/2010 12:03

Helloooooo. I love this thread! Only joined MN yesterday and have been scrabbling round to find a good TTC thread that was supportive but not tooo serious and here you all are!!
We started working on number 3 officially last night i guess lol. I am absolutely determined bnot to calculate my ovulation or take pregnancy tests really early. I did all that whilst TTc number 2 and fook me it got so emotional and when i finally did get that positive test i found out so early i felt like i had been pregnant for 3 years by the time he was born! So hopefuly i'll be able to do it and avoid being slapped with the kipper!
