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

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!

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 11/09/2010 08:07

BFN. WTF?

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!

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

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

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! :).

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!

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.

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

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

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!

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 :)

crowette · 12/09/2010 07:38

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

HarderToKidnap · 12/09/2010 07:51

Weird, crow, I was just about to post something similar! AF "arrived" Friday in the form of some brownish discharge. Would usually expect full flow to follow but now Sunday and nothing but a bit of brown discharge still. Thought I'd give it today and test tomorrow but have just changed my shifts to nightshifts until Thursday so will wait and if no proper AF will test Thursday.

crowette · 12/09/2010 08:36

Hi HTK

On Friday I had what looked like fresh blood spotting, hence me thinking AF was here ... it was only when I wiped. Had panty liners in since and later on Friday it died off to the brown discharge, mainly when I wipe again. Was still very pale brown/peachy yesterday morning and so when OH got frisky and suggested JSing I thought it may well get AF going properly if she was lurking Grin but absolutely nothing since then - just loads of clear CM, so much so (TMI alert!!) that I feel like I'm blowing bubbles haha!!!

Got pelvic cramping, which now I think about it, isn't really like AF cramps - similar, but just don't feel 'right' IYSWIM?

I'm wondering if the stress I'm feeling at the moment is holding AF back.

BrassicaBabe · 12/09/2010 09:26

Hmm, sounds promising crow and harder

Am I allowed to get my hopes up this month? First month of clomid, def oved on Thursday. JSed on Tues, Thurs and Fri. Surely there is NOTHING more I can bloody well do?! [grrr]

OP posts:
NoMoreChocBiscuits · 12/09/2010 10:22

(Self indulgent sulk alert) Still no fecking BFP so still no admitting for real that I am totally and comletely up the duff and wanting to throw up all over the keyboard.

Now waiting til Tuesday to test again as hubby couldn't even imagine the faintest of faint, can only be seen at a certain angle line on the test this morning. Actually if hubby has his way I'll be down at the Drs first thing tomorrow asking for a blood test. Gah!

crowette · 12/09/2010 10:49

How frustrating NoMOre! Fingers crossed those pregnancy hormones are just being lazy!

I've told my OH what's happening - not wanting to raise false hopes, but to let him know why I may seem a bit preoccupied and maybe quiet ... but he's gone and got himself all excited!

takethatlady · 12/09/2010 14:53

brassica you can definitely get your hopes up - but only a little bit otherwise you may turn into the wailing banshee I turned into last month Shock

nomore how frustrating. But you say there's something on the test, so perhaps by Tuesday it'll show up good and proper.

I'm symptom spotting like a maniac today. I feel all achey all over my upper back, and pretty lethargic, which is exactly how I felt 6 days before my BFP last month. Plus those Montgomery's tubercles thingummys are up on my left nipple (nipples looked like the Peak District for the few days I was preggo last month, but then I'd never even heard of this Montgomery person before then, so have no idea if they've ever gone like that before!)

Even if I'm not pregnant I'm going to console myself with the fact that nipply bumps have not been named after me. Poor consolation, I know Grin

takethatlady · 12/09/2010 15:04

Oh God now I'm prodding about again. What I need is more jiggery, less pokery! (But the boobs do hurt when I press them Hmm)

vallinnapod · 12/09/2010 15:34

Ladies!

Too much to catch up on but I see cowboy has her BFP. Muchos congrats!

NMCB sorry AF has gone missing...please don't read on as I am sorry but....

I GOT MY PERIOD! Oh yes....it's a crappy, light flow one (not surprising as no lining to get rid of!). Totally drug induced and not even a real period (withdrawal bleed) but who cares!!!!!!

I reserve the right never to be pleased to see it again though!

Northisterone is horrible. Lost 8lbs in 2 days from all the retained water it caused.

Gotta go, at airport...delayed...but in VIP lounge with free WiFi hoping my mum doesn't spot my obsession. Back to full force tomorrow.

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 12/09/2010 16:27

AHA! My period has run off on holiday with Vallinna! Hope it brings you a BFP soon Grin

Looking forward to the madness Brassica

And all positive noises from you lot, TTL, HTK and Crow :o

milanomum · 12/09/2010 16:28

HURRAH vallinna glad you've got a starting point no matter how drug-induced it may be!

I have exactly the same signs as you Crowette - this morning i got the slightest sign of AF but nothing since then... WTF?? i am exactly 15 days dpo so it is due but i was secretly hoping... will hold out for a few days and see what happens - I remember someone saying that they had spotting at 2, 4 and 8 weeks of pregnancy as if her body 'remembered' AF. Fingers crossed!
Of course i have just ordered pre-seed as I said i would at the first sign of AF this time so maybe that 'reverse psychology' will kick in now Hmm

choc that's just weird. What's going on??!!

takethat bumpy nipples??!! :o

milanomum · 12/09/2010 16:29

brassica bring it on!
