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

Hello, please can I join your thread? I am totally new on here and have just started "just shagging". Feeling quite nervous about everything that might happen or not happen! Really love all the new phrases I have just discovered from reading this thread Grin

BrassicaBabe · 16/10/2010 11:45

Morning lovelies

I'm sat in an organic cafe having a bacon and egg roll and reading the paper.

Fingers crossed for you takethat

can't post much cos of stoopid phone. Just "checking in" Grin

Miffles · 16/10/2010 11:20

Have a great time - keep wearing those white jeans, HTK

HarderToKidnap · 16/10/2010 11:18

Off now on hollibobs. A little heavier discharge for me but still no fucking AF, tres pissed off. It's so strange because I KNOW I oved this month and I know it was 2 and a half weeks ago so where is the bitch????

Josie, will keep my fingers crossed for you, and for sticky ones for TTL, milano and NMCB. Hugs to BB and lurve and copious pant snot for everyone!
xx

Miffles · 16/10/2010 11:18

Crap crap crap. Cross posted with TTL. Please don't say your AF is on the way. Please don't. That is not fair for you. So not fair. I really hope that your symptoms don't mean what you think they do.

Miffles · 16/10/2010 11:16

Congrats TTL!! Really pleased for you - amazing that you managed it again with a super long cycle. Maybe NMCB has some of those staples left over for your cervix?! Confused

Brassica - huge un-MN-y hugs to you and arse biscuits all round. To be treated that way about something so tender and emotional. Take your time and really be nice to yourself over the next few weeks. I?m glad I didn?t take that clomid from you.

Sorry that you?ve been got, b2 - can totally sympathise with crying in the toilets. Sad Hope you?ve got a good boozy w/e planned ? with Daniel Craig perhaps?! Certainly no kipper-slapping. You?re completely normal to feel the way you are.

So agree with you, hedgeblunder, I love the fact that despite my chunky thighs, his are bigger!! Feel proud of my rugby man, although it is annoying not having him for Saturday afternoons during the season and Saturday evenings are a write off too ? too tired for any hanky panky!! Oh, and PMSL at furlking someone elses womble!!

Josie - it really isn?t over yet. Hope your haircut is what you wanted ? we?ve got to enjoy the little things and spoils ourselves. TTC is stressful!!

KC - I love being an auntie. Unfortunaltely I am about to be an auntie twice more ? so even more practice!! Would like the real thing myself, but being an aunt is something special ? I love my niece way way way more than other babies i see around. Actually, it really surprised me, how much I love her, wasn?t expecting it at all! But so agree with the frustration of others getting there and not you.

takethatlady · 16/10/2010 11:08

Okay so lower backache is now compounded by loss of sore boobs. They're only sore if I poke them all of a sudden.

I know what this leads to, and it isn't good. Just snapped at DH because he told me I shouldn't have tested early, but even if I lose it I want to know if I'm pregnant. He doesn't exactly get it.

Trying not to be too negative but the pattern is exactly the same as last cycle. :(

We'll see. Have a good weekend guys. I'll let you know if anything else happens.

takethatlady · 16/10/2010 10:28

Good 'cos licorice tea sounds vile! Another incentive to keep the bean stuck.

Glad your cat is okay nervous :)

Hope the temps hold up josie

Boobs no longer hungry, just burning. Hope you're all having a nice hungover lazy start to your weekend. You're going to have to drink on my behalf for the moment. I've got spare vodka if anyone wants it :)

OP posts:
NoMoreChocBiscuits · 16/10/2010 09:15

Ohh TTL the licorice tea isn't for a sticky bean. It's to bring ov forward if naughty bean doesn't stick. It apparently has phyto-estrogens in it. Either way I drank it every day and ended up ov'ing 2 days early. Have stopped now though.
Obviously I hope it doesn't come to that though!

Have a good holibob HTK (envy face) Grin

Josie it takes until 18DPO to have something like a 96% chance of testing positive, so don't dispare to much.

JosieSmith1 · 16/10/2010 09:08

Thanks, I'm still holdin onto a shred of hope too. Never bn a day over 28 until now so u just never no!

Enjoy ur sticky foods and nuts TTL! I have a confession 2 make though, I started takin my temps 3 days ago Blush although they're no help at this stage but hav bn droppin Confused which I don't think is a good pg sign but not sure.

Off 2 get my hair cut now but as I can access MN on my mobile now (yippee!) I can let u all no wot I think of it, and if re-fecker arrives

NervousNelly · 16/10/2010 08:56

Treacle's quite sticky Wink. Sorry TTL that's not v helpful is it?

Pleased to report the cat is fine. Slept the night fast asleep beside me (awww I love my cat) and no bonbons, creme brûlée or ribbons to be seen :)

Josie sorry no BFP yet. I have read on her of plenty people who don't get a bfp until a week late or more. So still holding out hope!

takethatlady · 16/10/2010 08:29

Oh josie how annoying. Really sad for your friend's cat :( I definitely recommend rule-breaking and temping if your periods do start to go a little out of whack. It really helps (although it hasn't worked for me this month as I think I'm way past 11dpo, which is what I think I should be. My boobs have been hurting worse and worse each day for 4 days - last time on the 3rd day (day the red fecker was due) they started to get less bad.) Anyway, in general they make it much easier to predict when you're due.

Anyway, it ain't over til it's over.

Brazil nuts and licorice tea - I'm off to get them right now! Yesterday I bought pizza (inspired by you lot), preg tests, and a Turkish delight. The girl at the till kept shooting me meaningful looks and two kids from DH's school spotted us. Today I'll go back in and confuse the crap out of them with nuts and icky tea :) Any other sticky substances people?

JosieSmith1 · 16/10/2010 07:44

Morning everyone.

Still BFN this mornin 4 me. No signs of ERTD but not gettin hopes up jst in case. Officially my first 29 day cycle since comin off the pill, the other 4 were 28 like clockwork, hope I'm not gonna hav funny length cycles now?! Gettin hair cut then ridin 2 day so hopin 2 b thoroughly distracted

frakkinstein · 16/10/2010 06:02

Oh wow TTL. Fingers crossed for you :)

Your poor, poor cat, nervous! Not much you can do for a cat really - can't tell it to sit with its tail in cold water Grin

:( for your friend, josie.

I am supposedly second trimester NMCB but still no sign of any wanting to! Am feeling a bit better - thoroughly reassured after the rocky start as apparently everything is fine and I'm back to low risk. Baby was sleeping on both scans though :( everyone else says it was jumping and bouncing around for them... Absolutely knackered, no nausea - never really had any - but incredibly hormonal.

Reverse psychology works! Book a 6 week holiday and test the day before you go. Spend those weeks surrounded by family and friends unable to tell anyone. It's foolproof I tell you... That and having just landed a new job work like a charm so tell yourself 'this is a really inconvenient month to get pregnant' and it'll happen.

Hedgeblunder · 15/10/2010 23:44

Takethatlady - wow that's fantastic news! I really really hope it sticks for you, I read somewhere that brazil nuts have some enzyme or something in them that helps stickyness, might be worth a go at least?

Hope you get a result soon josie

Do we all have cats then? I have one yay! He didn't come with any bonbons attached though, humph.
Mines currently flat out on his back dreaming, nice life hey?

Hope everyones having a good night x

JosieSmith1 · 15/10/2010 22:14

Ha ha NoMore, I'm playing freecell! Great minds think alike! My friend saw her cat get knocked over too, said he had awful head injuries and there was blood everywhere (sorry if TMI!)

At least he's at peace and not suffering now.

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 15/10/2010 22:12

Ah Josie that's horrible for your friend. I saw a cat get run over earlier this year. My poor DH had to finish it off as it was so badly hurt Sad

Nervous, is you're cat's name Creme Brulee? Grin

So many spelling mistakes in this (Nercous?!) time for bed me thinks (wanders off to play solitare instead).

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 15/10/2010 22:06

there are a few. Opps, to busy watching TV while typing.

JosieSmith1 · 15/10/2010 22:05

Nervous mine normally lives out till november but because last winter was so bad the grass never really recovered and now with the rain it's being churned up and she's hungry so she's coming in for 3 nights this week, 5 the week after then it's 6 months of early mornings Confused that's my queasy face Grin I chose weekends for her to start coming in though as I can't cope with the 6am starts before work just yet Grin

JosieSmith1 · 15/10/2010 22:01

I am imagining a litle cat with a pretty bon bon tied to his tailwith ribbons Grin

Not to put a downer on things, but my friend's cat was knocked over badly this morning and we've been following his progress all day but sadly he has passed away Sad She's absolutely heartbroken bless her.

I am now going to stuff my face with pringles and angel cake seeing as my tea (yes you guessed it, mushroom pizza yet again, about the 5th time this week Shock) didn't fill me. I'm actually sick of mushroom pizza finally! Blush

NervousNelly · 15/10/2010 22:01

josie it ain't over till the red fecker sings, or something! enjoy the hack and the new hair! Going to try to get up early and hack before OH comes home. luckily my two are still out so I can still have weekend lie-ins (for about 2 more weeks :( )

NervousNelly · 15/10/2010 21:56

There are A few, or there are few??? .

(that's reverse psychology doncha know?! Like buying a years supply of tampax Wink)

Haha maybe his singed tail has caramelised into a bonbon:) (for legal reasons I am joking, he's fine!)

JosieSmith1 · 15/10/2010 21:51

Evening everyone

BFN so far SadSad but despite my best fanjo-furkling Blush still no sign of ERTD so waiting for the morning. Only got tescos cheapies as didn't have enough money for a digi. I have to admit it's weird for ERTD no to have arrived by now and for there to be no cramps Confused

Anyway, will allow myself to be distracted with thoughts of new hair and long ride out with a friend tomorrow in the hope that it keeps me sane untileither I get ERTD or a BFP [frazzled emoticon]

Congrats TTL by the way, sending lots of stickies!

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 15/10/2010 21:48

don't worry there are few familiar faces on the graduates thread. You'll be there before you know it.
Is a tailbon like a sweet tied to the cat's tail?

NervousNelly · 15/10/2010 21:43

Tailbon???? No idea. iPhones eh!
