We're not obsessing, we're Just Shagging! Part III

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

Oh goodness Takethat I don?t think I?ve counted hallucinating as a symptom (of the pg I?ve not yet had), so --far?Grin

Yes Snowpea that sounds exactly right! Though my DH is a rugby fan so I can amend it to fit! Grin

baby2b · 16/09/2010 12:10

snowpea awesome...will be using that later! Grin

Truffkin · 16/09/2010 13:34

Snowpea great analogy, am impressed with your creativity! I've not had what seems to be know as the chat with DH so far, partly because I don't 100% get all of the biology myself yet and luckily he has happy to JS pretty much whenever I feel ike it so doesn't take much convincing! (I say pretty much because within 24 hours of my implant being removed my sex drive went through the roof, so an be a bit of a sex pest from time to time)

So my iphone app actually says that Saturday is OV day so for the next few days I shall be randomly initiating as much hot luvin' action as I can reasonably get away with in the hope that the big bang occurs and results in duffedness.

TakeThat I have a large frozen snapper here that should do the trick, come on, take the hit if only for convincing yourself you are imagining small insects Wink

Josie I would say that extreme fatigue is definitely a pg symptom so bring on the mentalness until Saturday!

In other news, I have just had to eat a snickers as my lunch dessert as I read something that suggested I should abstain from eating peanuts when pg as I am asthmatic and have eczema so the sprog would be highly likely to have a nut allergy if I ate nuts whilst hatching it. So not only wine, shellfish and runny boiled eggs but bloody whole nut as well Sad Confused and Shock all at once

BrassicaBabe · 16/09/2010 14:36

Love the analogy snowpea Hopefully it hit the target Grin

Sorry for witch AF b2b

My 2WW "symptoms" at 7DPO for your delight and delectation:
Extreme tiredness (I have a 2hour each way commute, go figure Grin)
Twinges "inside" (Recent curry side effects?)
Shooting pains in my boobs (much pokidge goign on)
Skin breakout (had a facial last week)
Nausea (too much haribo)

Bought 2 cheapy pg tests at lunch today. I wonder how long I can keep from peeing on them Hmm Hopefully I can hold out longer than takethat Wink

I am mental!

BrassicaBabe · 16/09/2010 14:40

Some stats for you takethat Wink Something to help you stay strong Grin

Average Day Past Ovulation (DPO) for the first positive pregnancy test: 13.6 DPO

Average DPO for the first "false" negative test result: 10.3 DPO

Percentage of pregnancy charts with a positive test at 10 DPO: 10%

JosieSmith1 · 16/09/2010 14:40

Oh Truff, join the club hun! I have a nut allergy so have never even tasted whole nut! Blush

My best mate is coming over for tea tonight so that'll take my mind of it for a while (although I'd quite like to just go to bed), and then I'm busy doing horsey things on sat which will be very distracting so hopefully I won't even notice yeah right until it's officially late!

nickelbabe · 16/09/2010 15:37

can I join in?
I've tried to read as much ofthe thread as poss, but i'm still a little bit confused as to the terminology....
:)

hello, everyone!

we've only had sex 3 times since we started (two might have been just before ov, but not sure, because i haven't a clue what's going on in there! Blush )
but i might have AF now - it's hard to tell, cos i always start with a couple of days of splodges/drippage then it starts.
pretty sure that i'm breaking all your thread rules behaving like this, but i can't help but think "what if..?" not likely, but it's interesting for me to see the thought process!
Grin

JosieSmith1 · 16/09/2010 15:49

Welcome Nickelbabe!

We're all mad very sane people in here, come on in! Grin

Don't worry about breaking the rules, I'm probably number 1 offender!

milanomum · 16/09/2010 16:55

Rules? what ruwels? :o

Join in the fun Nickelbabe!

Brassica I love that the rational thought is in brackets in your message... says it all really Wink

snowpea that's genius - but my man is more of a Formula 1 man so I need to think of something similar.

grabs some popcorn and takes a seat to watch takethatlady go completely bonkers< :o

takethatlady · 16/09/2010 17:02

Thanks for the stats brassica! Haven't hallucinated anything today, despite even more dangerous consumption of lemsip, so that's good. Had to do a presentation with snot running from my nose to my lip at work today. Literally had to lick it off part-way through and hope no-one noticed Blush

Already plotting my next pee Grin

snowpea that is an amazing analogy. I am SO using that later. Welcome nickelbabe. Quick run down of all the thread jargon I can think of:
pant snot - egg white cervical mucus (EWCM)
vag sneeze - release of aforementioned pant snot
PIAR - pee in a ramekin
PIAJ - pee in a jar

These last are activities we are not meant to partake in until at least 14 days past ovulation (DPO). Few of us make it.

Shag capes, shag boots, and all other shag-related-clothing - self-explanatory

Dildo-cam. You'll have to ask vallinna and brassica for details but it's basically a scan up your fanjo.

Viroids - what we call ourselves.

These have evolved through months of all of us pretending to be pretty damn laid back about the whole ttc thing. Some of us have clearly been on here waaaay too long Grin

Welcome, though!

takethatlady · 16/09/2010 17:07

Also, in addition to the snot-licking episode the only other productive thing I have done today is to wedge an armchair in the stairwell. It's well and truly wedged. I thought I could take it upstairs and put it in the nursery spare room. I couldn't. I spent half an hour trapped on the stairs trying to dangle myself off the armchair and into the living room. After 30 minutes of grunting, heaving and dangling, I managed to wedge myself free. The armchair is still stuck though Shock

I've also eaten all DH's choc biscuits. He's going to be so happy when he comes home and finds his treats gone, his wife covered in snot, and half the furniture stuck up the stairs Grin

Anyone else losing their marbles?

nickelbabe · 16/09/2010 17:09

i like the idea of a shag-cape.

you should sell those Wink

we do the cycling our legs in the air - but it's usually not after sex Grin - we do that for fun!

I am laid back (so far!), i'm in danger of becoming obsessed with it, so i'm pretending it's not happening.
Blush

nickelbabe · 16/09/2010 17:09

tell me, please, takethat, this time you're taking about real snot, not pantsnot?
Confused

takethatlady · 16/09/2010 17:11

PMSL nickelbabe. Real snot, real snot! Good God I should be more careful with my words!

nickelbabe · 16/09/2010 17:12
Grin
BrassicaBabe · 16/09/2010 17:43

Welcome nickelbabe I would suggest you aren't laid back at all! Otherwise you wouldn't have joined our ranks Wink But we'll go along with your "laid back" idea for now Grin

Loving takethat's summary of our jargon. You missed:
JIAR - jizz in a jar
furkle (verb) - as in I furkle, you furkle, he/she furkles, they furkle Grin - what you might have to do to work out the position of your cervix. Although I don't think I want to hear about any episodes of he furkles and worse still they furkle Grin

PMSL @ your "stuck in the stairwell" episode Grin

takethatlady · 16/09/2010 18:16

Ha ha, thanks for filling in the JS dictionary brassica. DH got the armchair out. Just gotta convince him to shag me now Grin

Truffkin · 16/09/2010 18:20

Oh em gee TakeThat the snot licking tale did make me chortle, I'm sure it only added to the professionality of your presentation!

Welcome Nickleback and pray tell us your tale, how long and in what guise have you been actively tying to make babies just shagging? What is your tipple of choice? Do you have any interesting (read weird, crazy, entertaining!) hobbies?

I'm off for a date with my luscious hubby (we're going to see Inception complete with hot dogs, ice cream sundaes and a disgustingly large bucket of pepsi cola!) so happy Thursday evening to all my lovely viroid pals and here's to TFIF tomorrow (and I have the afternoon off so double yippee) Grin Grin Grin

baby2b · 16/09/2010 21:35

Day two of AF in the baby2b house and all is quiet. The gu jars feel abandoned. There are two pg test with the cellophane still on. Shock The shag cape and gadgets have been hidden away as have lots of visitors this weekend including the mil. :(

Decided I will use opk tests this month again, though the month I did get pregnant was the month I did nothing but js Hmm

Loving hearing your symptoms Brassica, which do sound very promising if you ignore the brackets :) PMSL at the chair being stuck takethat Grin Hope everyone is busy jsing this evening, I want to hear lots of crazy symptom updates and jsing capers!

baby2b · 16/09/2010 21:37

How rude...I meant to say hi and welcome Nickleback :):)

Miffles · 16/09/2010 22:42

Hey guys,

This feels kinda strange... introducing myself. As I have actually been following your antics religiously!! It is the evening highlight to catch up on the days events (MN blocked from internet at work ...grrr) I am the biggest lurker of them all! Blush

So - I feel like we are already friends, but I ought to introduce myself properly. Smile

DH and I have been JS for 9 months, but I'm in the same boat as Vallinna and maybe a few others. PCOS - although I get AF every 2-3 weeks. The good thing being there is no time for a 2ww!! No madness - or at least it's not concentrated into 2 weeks Wink Waiting to have an appt with consultant - NHS so LONG wait. In the meantime, really am JSing!

I regularly pmsl on comments - esp tonight, real snot vs pant snot takethat Ha ha!! And the correct use of furkle brassica - how about he/she/it furkles??!! Confused

Look forward to sharing the madness with you all.

Roll on the weekend!

Truffkin · 16/09/2010 23:53

Welcome MiffytheRabbit to the JS gang!

Am home from cinema date and have to say, Inception was pretty awesome. I like that kind of film anyway (action / suspense) but it was really clever, edge of my seat stuff. Right then, just a flying visit. (got to get the JS in Wink of course!

JosieSmith1 · 17/09/2010 08:39

Welcome Miffy!

Had very much fun enjoyed reading back through last night's comments! Grin Hope your armchair is comes unstuck TakeThat!

Had a horrendous night and a bad morning - DH and his little bro went out for little bro's birthday last night. DH phoned at 10.30pm to say little bro was absolutely off his face and he had to get him home, so, conscious ridden (only because I have a soft spot for little bro) I got back out of bed and picked them up. A stranger had to help us get him in the car (after he flashed his cheeks to the whole of Newcastle Blush) then when we got him home PiL were up waiting and DH got him to bed (I'd have just shoved him on the bed and left him to sleep it off Grin), so it was midnight when I got home, after 1 when I finally got back to sleep, then awake at 6am with next door's crying baby! This morning I woke up to ink leaked over my over £1000 suede settee from DH, who was "very sorry" Angry

All while suffering with a cold! Sad[need hugs emoticon]

takethatlady · 17/09/2010 08:47

Welcome miffles! I'm sure I've seen you somewhere else on MN :)

And big hugs Josie. I've got a cold too and it sounds like you had a rubbish night. Wanted to put a word in for your bro though, who probably has a cracking hangover right now. Also because I share has flashing pain. A couple of years ago I had too much to drink in the Wetherspoons on Margate seafront and my halterneck top came undone and fell down. I had no bra on, and I was totally unaware until a man came over to DH and said, 'oi mate, your bird's got 'er tit out'.

I am one classy lady.

takethatlady · 17/09/2010 08:48

I share his flashing pain. Doh.
