Just Shagging Part 10; No science or skill, JS at will!

989 replies

AWomanCalledHorse · 27/06/2012 14:03

Welcome to the lazy way to make a baby, part 10!!

Just Shagging (JS) is ttc using ye olde shagging & crossing fingers methods, our tools are your body, OH?s body..urm some wine & lots of finger crossing.

All are welcome, most leave happy & upduffed! The last two threads have been very successful; thread 8 had 5 BFP?s, thread 9 had 6 BFP?s....so we?re due 7 BFP?s here, which means we all need to get shagging.

We don?t ?do?; OPKS, taking temp or harcore charting...although it is nice to know when ERTD is due.
Which brings us to acronyms & slang;
AF=ERTD (Evil Red Tide Of Doom).
EWCM=Pant Snot
Getting a BFP soon after joining thread= Doing a kitten
You=Are a viroid, no idea why but it goes long back to the dawn of time.
DTD=JS or donning the Shag cape.
POAS=Sometimes referred to as PIAR (Pissing In A Ramekin), as we?re such classy ladies

Here is last thread for proof that it works, and that you can't shut us up Grin

Here is the Graduates thread!

Whoops this is 'showmethemhappyfeet' btw! Felt like a NAND change Smile

ChristineDaae · 14/08/2012 14:41

Ok just want to start this with a TMI warning Blush

I just got home from work and have had quite a lot of brownish googey... Leakage.Blush
I had this a lot with my last pregnancy but not till about 16 weeks. Or could it be ERTD finally arriving?

Grannyapple · 14/08/2012 14:10

Ha ha kitten, DS is usually a 7pm-7am kind of boy, but recently been up at all hours. I thought it was the hot weather but not so sure now.

Just back from taking him swimming...hoping it's tired him out enough for a decent sleep tonight...

Kittenkatzen · 14/08/2012 11:58

Oh no frying, can't you get your DH to agree to something less disruptive than the pill if it's a postponement of ttc rather than a cancellation? It can take a while for the pill to leave your system so you could be causing unnecessary delays in future....can't you get him to use condoms for the time being? Or just careful timing/withdrawal if an "accident" wouldn't be the end of the world?

granny 3.45am!! ShockShock i might be going off this having kids lark after all.....! Wink

fryingpantoface · 14/08/2012 10:21

I'm sorry apple but well done on the lie in!

DS (11 months) was up then as well. Must be something in the water

fryingpantoface · 14/08/2012 10:20

kitten I know it's early, I guess i just thought it I was it would tell me. Will hold on until Sat before trying again.

Nothing PMSY. I'm all spotty, so very tired and just feel totally gross, but it could be either a pregnancy or pms thinking about it! :)

I really don't want to get my hopes up, but I can't help it. I know that if i'm not pregnant this cycle, i'm going back onto the pill as dh is panicking and wants to wait a bit.

Grannyapple · 14/08/2012 10:13

Ach...stoopid phone...primrose oil tablets that should say!

Grannyapple · 14/08/2012 10:11

Morning ladies....POAS'd this morning & bfn so defo out this month. Now feels like ERTD is finally on its way & I feel loads better too...think it might be the vit supplements that have messed my cycle a bit (i'm same with prrose ools tablets too). Hurry up ERTD so we can get on with cycle #2!

Shattered today...ds been awake since 4.30am....slight improvement on yesterday's 3.45am Hmm

Kittenkatzen · 14/08/2012 09:52

Morning girls

frying sorry about the bfn :( but if you're not due till saturday it could well just be a bit too early - it's only just 10dpo which I think is the earliest time for implantation to have taken place isn't it? Don't give up hope just yet - are you feeling pms-y at all?

fryingpantoface · 14/08/2012 08:28

I caved and piar today, first morning pee, it was negative. So I don't think this is the month

fryingpantoface · 13/08/2012 22:49

Practising, I ovd on 4th, so due on sat. Did I read that right? You're the same as me?

frustratedpants · 13/08/2012 21:59

Blush * drips

frustratedpants · 13/08/2012 21:59

Hi swimming. Blush JS leakage drops and pant snot doesn't Blush certainly not something I'd say in RL

Practisingparent · 13/08/2012 20:39

Its pretty erratic! oh well.... now calm down!!! Hmm

Practisingparent · 13/08/2012 20:30

Hmmm, I have often wondered the same thing swimming, but for me I tend to give it atleast 12 hours to drain, unless you have been lying down for most of that time (night time), It can only drain properly with gravity to assist! HTH

Welcome newbies!

Desperately trying to keep my mind off wondering whether this could be my month...blasted 2ww, however pretty sure when I ov so ertd should be here by end of this week, testing on saturday if not! Will go check how long my luteal phase is normally is... (have been charting ertds for last 6months!)

swimmingnotdrowning · 13/08/2012 18:57

Jeepers-oh you girls can talk - I've been away for a week and it's taken me nearly forever to catch up with the chatter.

Thoughts are with those with sad news and those with uncertainty. And also hello to the newbies!

Gross question (actually Hooya's originally so you can blame / credit her Wink) - how do you tell the difference between pant snot and, erm, post-JS leakage? How long after JS do you think the leakage lasts? (things you can't ask in RL!!!)

Good to be back Smile

Dysgu · 13/08/2012 16:08

Gosh, the weekends go by so quickly! The girls had a fabulous time at the (sandy) beach with DP on Saturday and then swimming on Sunday as the sea was a bit too cold on Saturday! It's all very busy here now that Cowes Week has started - lots of fun stuff in town and perfect excuses for ice cream on the sea front.

I am doing really well with my 'healthy' eating. I have lost a few pounds this week just by not snacking between meals. We went to the local shop this morning (on way back from Docs re constipated child Hmm ) and girls spent some of their pocket money. I looked at the chocolate - even checked out the calories to see if there was a 'low' one and then decided not to have anything. I did buy a frappuccino mocha drink instead but that was low fat! I have never paid much attention to such things before but I am heading towards a size 16 and I was size 10 before DD1 so I want to get back to a healthy weight/healthy eating. The evenings are the hardest - I think I eat when I am bored - so I have started my planning for the new school year! Boring but keeps me busy!

Toby congratulations - hope the wedding plans go well. Probably a good idea - we got engaged before we had DD1 but have never done anything about getting married.

apple thanks for mentioning the folic acid - I have forgotten to take mine for the past few days. Will go catch up now. Good luck with POAS tomorrow.

Show any sign of two red lines yet? My ERTD is due on Wednesday but I am not feeling too hopeful. This is cycle 5 for us and we caught first time with DD1 and DD2 - of course, we are that much older now. We did quite well on the JSing earlier in my cycle tho so perhaps...

Showmethemhappyfeet · 13/08/2012 13:16

No sign of either. Worked out last night, 9 weeks since last ERTD, 3 weeks since stopped taking pill.
Fingers crossed for BFPs all round Smile

AWomanCalledHorse · 13/08/2012 12:58

Congratulations Toby!! You know this means you'll get pregnant this month Wink

Frying, sounds promising! Happy belated anniversary!

Welcome Pineapple & apple...we've almost got a fruit basket now Grin

kitten, enjoy!

ERTD is on its last day & I've just started supplements to help my PMT so looking forward to this month...DS is at PIL this week, missing my bayyyybbbbeeee. :(

happyfeet, fingers are crossed for you!

hooya, hope you had a great holiday?

Dysgu, did you have a good weekend? I'd go sandy over pebbley anytime, spent childhood on Brighton/Hastings/Eastbourne beaches...pebble castles aren't as fun!

Hope everyone has a great week!

Kittenkatzen · 13/08/2012 11:57

Wow congratulations toby how exciting!

Morning all, and welcome to the newbies :)

happyfeet any sign of ertd or a bfp yet? It's crap when your body plays games on you like that - hope you get something one way or the other very soon.

frying belated happy anniversary! Sounds very positive for you this month, will keep my fingers firmly crossed for an anniversary bfp for you! :)

CD15 for me, so we are shagging like something at the moment :o

TobyLerone · 13/08/2012 10:16

Thanks :) Not the kind of congratulations I expected on this thread!

Showmethemhappyfeet · 13/08/2012 09:36

Congratulations Toby!

fryingpantoface · 13/08/2012 09:03

Congratulations!

TobyLerone · 13/08/2012 08:01

Ladies, I'm probably the shortest-lived member you've ever had, but I shall be taking my leave of you temporarily.

On Saturday, my lovely DP proposed to me, and we've decided that we don't want to get married with a small child in tow. Neither do I want to have to go without alcohol at the most expensive party I've ever thrown :o
So we're going to get married soon and then get back to JSing.

I will be back! Good luck, all. And thanks for the undeserved welcome :)

Grannyapple · 12/08/2012 22:15

Cheers frying. I'm still not convinced tbh...have had cramping on & off since Thursday which is unusual (normally only on the day for me), but I'd be shocked if it happened 1st cycle....we were just enjoying the intimacy of the 2 of us again Wink. Just occurred to me that I'm wondering if taking folio acid/multivitamin has mucked up my cycle a bit, tho I switch from sanatogen to sainsbury's own brand this month?? Hey ho, we'll see what this week brings...

Good luck to all the js-ers, those on 2ww & impending testers!
