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

swimming & kitten - we will be on holidays during ov as well! I'm hoping the holiday mood will help us relax etc! It'll be our first go at all if this, so I'm a little excited and nervous

Evening all

swimming I'm doing that too - trying to focus on the shagfest not the other rubbish bit of this adventure! DP and I didn't do it yesterday so managed some cheeky fun before we left for work this morning - we seem to be going for every day at the moment, though surely that will get tiring!

Thanks all for the reassurance re random bleeding, I agree re hormones, hate them! My skin has got worse since going off the pill, and my boobs have shrunk at least one size

Hello Andie it's all fun in here! I know we'll have our tough times but I like that this thread celebrates the fine art of shagging

Loving the positivity here today - I am so determined to keep this feeling of shagging is fun and it will all work out in the end!

Oh and welcome Andie, wishing you a speedy bfp! :)

I'm convinced swimming! In fact I've been doing the same thing - we're away for a fortnight the week after next, happily coinciding with OV, so my shag cape will be first into the suitcase :) and I'm not even thinking about next week's bfp ERTD at all honest.

Also I have standing/mosh pit tickets to a rock concert at the end of October, which will obviously be better enjoyed if not upduffed.

Unfortunately, that's where my positive planning ends as after that I have my heart set on breaking pg news to my family by putting scan pics in Christmas cards.........

Hi Ladies,
Can I join? Just had my evil Nexplanon implant out so starting JSing as of now...I know it's not likely I'll get a BFP very soon with the way the bloody thing screwed my hormones up but it's bloody good fun!
Hope everyone's well today.

That is a lot of BFPs on this thread already! Although I'm really sorry that they haven't all worked out as the ladies would have wanted. I can think of at least one - thinking of you x

Glad you're feeling more positive hooya.

I've recently started to try calculating when next month's shag-fest is due rather than concentrating on when this month's ERTD is due which is helping. I'm also planning holidays that would only work if we are child-free so that there are positive things to look forward to. Between looking forward to the holidays and looking forward to the JSing, there's plenty to be happy about!

Hooya..
Excellent idea to plan ahead. Those sort of conversations always have helped us to feel more in control.
Parents surely will understand???

Nicola I agree with you re hormones... I had a mirena fitted for 9 years and although very helpful with the ERTD it messed with my skin. I am treating it with dermo rollers and hoping it works....

Morning girls...bfps today, ok????

Glad you're feeling better about it all, Hooya. :-)

FWIW I used to bleed after sex while on the pill, which was a hormonal issue. And it was why I got put onto the injection all those years ago.

Hormones are, by and large, shit! :-/

Morning all, quiet around here!

Feeling a bit calmer as DP and I hatched a plan last night re where we want to have baby, where to move to if we don't get pg etc... It's been a bit stressful, and though we haven't figured everything out, feeling a bit better!

Also very exciting the thought of having a baby here! We are a bit worried about what our parents will say (they have no clue we are trying)

popcorn with chilly sauce or jalapenos is my downfall hooray

I also think that we are one of the most sucessful threads I told you I am competitive.

I think we need a stentnoon (instead of a babynoon) in our house. I am freaked by the stents so completely celibate. DH is freaked out too...

Well back to work (spend my life here)...

Evening all!

Oh notso I love popcorn. I have to avoid making it at home as I inevitably eat the whole lot!

Nicola I think it must be just post-pill weirdness, that and the rough sex

Nothing else new to report here, I do believe we've gone a whole day without a BFP, what's going on? Get shagging, ladies

Congrats, guinea :-)

And bleeding after sex can be hormonal (what isn't?!), Hooya...maybe a coming off the pill reaction?

Thanks hooya eating popcorn was my consolation that day! tea and a biscuit as we sit until our turn!
swimming we knew that rubbish times always comes and I just had a wobble.
Thanks everybody for your kind words and patience. I cried a awful lot with a big box of popcorn.
Until I saw knicker watching....very funny. :)
Another days ladies, another day.
As some of you sleep , jsi, pregnant or not yet, I hope that tomorrow will be a better day.

Congratsguinea...great news...
11bfps means that we are doing so well...:)

wow to 11bfps!

More JSing last night - that's 3 in a row and no bleed after, so hopefully whatever that was is cleared up! We googled bleeding after JSing and one of the potential causes was 'rough sex' ha ha

Hope everyone else (who is not already bfp) is having an ok 2ww / JSing / waiting for stents to be out!

Thanks for the congrats all. It's obviously very early days so don't want to count my chickens etc. I rang the Drs and they booked me in for a midwife appointment on Thursday so not long to wait. My friend found out she was pg yesterday - must be something in the water!

Hello all!

Woohoo congrats Guinea that's brilliant!!

Thanks Horse and kitten (blimey it's like a farm around here with all the animal nicknames), I'm going to persist this week and go to docs next week if my bits don't start behaving! Bit of an anxious time, finding out whether after all these years on the pill I am actually not fertile after all... but it's early days and I must not indulge the mental!

notso I hope you're feeling better, but if not I am joining you for some and sympathy, as I'm already thinking this is going to be a long haul...

Right, time to get DP off the PS3 and onto some, erm, me!

omg Guiea thats amazing, congratulations! :o :o here is the grads thread link that's at the top of this one, assume it's still the same. Come back and visit us won't you!

hooya i second horse's suggestion about seeing a doc, sound nasty hope it goes soon!

Congrats guinea! That's great news.

Does anyone know how many BFPs that is on this thread? Horse said that we were due 7 on this thread - are we up to that yet or is there a spare or two left for the rest of us?

OK. Just to continue the run of BFPs I got one too today!!

Not been on for a while because I wanted to really chill out this month. I thought I'd missed my chance this month with DD being in hospital over what I thought was my fertile weekend. BUT... I got a positive OPK test today (I've been doing them daily throughout my cycle this month) and it was positive. I read the other day that LH and HcG are almost identical so I did a test and got two lines! Just drove to the shop to get a CB digital and it says PREGNANT...trying not to get over excited but absolutely failing miserably.

Congratulations to all the BFP recipients this month - see you on the other side thread (btw which is the other thread?)

Good luck to everyone trying and hello/goodbye to all the newbies.

horse boo to UTI, I thought I was dying the first time I had one but then I am a hypochondriac. I hate drinking water too which doesn't help!

kitten and swimming good luck with knicker patrol ha ha - hope two more bfps are coming your way!

I don't know what to do. JSing last night and the night before, both resulted in bleeding afterwards, which then turns into brown / pinkish stuff, not enough for a tampon. If my cycle is as short as last month, I am due to ov this week, but don't see how if I keep bleeding

I know I shouldn't say this, but I miss my pill!

Thanks kitten that made me laugh! Knicker patrol indeed!

And it sounds like 33's maths is mind-boggling - poor you.
