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

[BrassicaBabe]

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

Shout if I've missed anyone.

crow that is a total joke. How dare somebody make assumptions about how many children you should have or about your perfectly healthy weight? I am the same as you though - sometimes I'm not even annoyed when people say these things, and it only occurs to me afterwards that I should have got . When I was 16 I went to the family planning clinic to get the pill, and I put on about just over a stone in the first three months. I'm in between 5'3" and 5'4" and I weighed 8 stone to begin with, so I was hardly obsese. The nurse went nuts and kept asking questions like, 'I take it you eat pudding every day? You're going to have to put a stop to that', and she got all these leaflets on healthy eating and gave them to my friend and told her to try to help me! I went from never having thought about my weight to thinking about it every day from then on until now. It is a joke what they think they can get away with.

Rant over. brassica that sucks. I'm with you on the and about BFNs. Don't be embarrassed though, they're so hard to interpret when you're looking for the faintest of lines. I know it's a BFN for me this month and I'm pretty pissed off. Ovulated on a Wednesday, and JSed Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. Thought you were meant to be more fertile after a mc too. As soon as AF comes I'm getting pissed. Want to join?

Takethat, I will certainly be joining you in a drunken-fest! Af is due on Friday. Mood of doom should descend on about Wednesday.

Why are you so certain of BFN this time? Things were sounding positve for you I thought?

We website of which we must not speak, says only 46.6% chance of a positive test at this stage.

Shall we just get drunk now or hang in for a few days?!

Brassica I thought we were cycle buddies - my ERTD isn't due until Sunday? Are you on a 26 day cycle? Like Milano says - it's too early to test!!! Kipper alert for you . takethat I echo Brassica - why so sure? Still time to hope isn't there?

I officially hate google. Having been a bit bemused by the on/off splodges/bleeding I've seen today/yesterday, I only went and googled it; and the first link I clicked matched exactly - description of timing, colour, consistency etc. I was doing so well being calm, and now I'm not. I won't be doing any rule-breaking early tests though, due to afore-mentioned holiday/language barrier (I'd probably find I'd tested negative for an STD or something ). Haven't shared my worries/teeny tiny excitement with OH as a) his Mum ended up in hospital today, though we think it's not too serious and b) I had bargained with him into starting ttc, due to my age and how long it was going to take. Not that he's not ready, but he's not expecting it to happen any time soon. I worry he'd think I tricked him - like any of us have that much control over the process .

Anyway am off to the rooftop bar for a GnT which will keep me in denial. I'm probably just being optimistic, and really it's just my period arriving early to stuff up my holiday. No doubt I'll be sheepishly sharing that with you all in the next couple of days (but moodily of course, as I'll have PMT too).

Oh Milano just realised I'm closer to you just now than the majority of the other JS'ers

Yep, we are cd buddies nervous. I'm usually on a 26 or a 27 day cycle it seems. Def ov'ed on cd12 though. Very jealous of your holidaying!!

I cannot lie, I am having a lovely time! But if it makes you feel better, I have loads of mossie bites including one under my bra strap, one on my foot, and one on my face - nice.

nervous

I'm sure because my sore boobs have totally vanished - they feel like regular boobs today, instead of boobs of fire like yesterday. And I thought I had a pink line on Saturday but it would be getting stronger by now and it's gone gone gone.

I reckon there's a 1% chance I'm pregnant. Can't get drunk now brassica as I've gotta drive home from work (yes, I'm here bloody late!), but any other day this week works for me

Hi all,

Crow - sorry to hear about your woes. Completely uncalled for comments. I'd have been too shocked to react too.

Brassica - bastard sun induced line. Whole new meaning to ray of hope...

I've had a day of it

Kept waiting for a hour for my scan. Completely lost it. Not really like me at all. 'Reasonably' ranted at the receptionist then wrote an email of complaint while I continued to wait, so it is all official . Then was rude to the sonographer as she didn't acknowledge the wait The got pissed off as she had no idea about me treatment plan. I said I refused to pay for this appointment. Was just a horrible person. No real follicles growing and thin lining Back on Thursday for another scan.

Then had a 'mare at work. Big meeting tomorrow with people from all over the world coming. My big showcase and I find the meeting room hasn't been booked. Had to hang up on the booking lady as was going to cry. I am not a crier. Had no idea how I was going to tell those involved. It wasn't my fault but it would have been perceived to be. They finally resolved it.

All in all very

Snowpea ? glad to hear your body is behaving itself. I got excited when AF turned up giving me a 23 day cycle. That is my personal best since off the pill in January! Otherwise it has been CD 17 ? 21. So gained a whole 2 days!! Sigh....PCOS....

Crowette ? the medical profession have got some answering to do. Well done on venting here and not at the doc....although some well placed put downs would probably have made you feel better.

Oh ? Takethat, I like your names. Kinda old, but would be cool. Like Edith Bowman. I do wonder sometimes how a 40 year old called ?Daisy Boo? will get on...
Can't believe, at 16, and 9 stone, you were lectured on being overweight. That is shocking . I'm only 5' 3' (ok, actually 5' 2 and half) and would dream of being 9 stone! We're a lot of short arses on here, aren't we!?!

How were the sheep Brassica?!

Nickelbabe ? my parents had chickens. They were called Sam and Ella. (salmonella....geddit?) Poached. Fried. Boiled. Scrambled. And the cockerel was called Paxo (cos he stuffed the chickens! I so didn?t get that joke til I was about 18....I was about 8 when I went to school, saying we had a cockerel called Paxo. I wonder what the teachers thought of my parents!!)

Off to my legs/bums/tums class now. I always enjoy it when I'm there....got to get there first though!

crossed posts with you vallinna

You deserve one of nervous's G&Ts on a rooftop bar!! Sounds like you had a rotten rotten crapperty day. Well done on doing an official complaint. What makes it worse for you, of course, is that this is the 2nd private place you've been to for treatment, isn't it? Let's hope they pull their socks up for Thursday.

Glad things have been sorted out for tomorrow, but not the stress you need is it. Hope it goes well. x

Thanks miffles - resigned to the fact they are all shite

Absolutely LOVE the chicken names!!

Sorry, the boobs are pain free takethat I'm just having a quiet glass of wine tonight. Hopeing to apease the ttc gods with some good behaviour Clutching at fecking straws me!

Well, the sheep are a PITA. The ewe lambs got in with the rams, so the vet was coming down for the "morning after pill". I've had chooks before too. They are most fun to have around the place.

Like the rant vallinna. And why not! You don't mind the occasional wait, but when you are paying privately, you expect at least an apology and for the treating professionals to know what they are treating you for. You are still Queen of the Diodocam!

vallinna you were entitled to get a bit arsey. for how difficult things are proving to be at the moment but, like brassica says, you are Queen of Dildocam and you'll get there!

I know miffles! That nurse was pint-sized bitch.

Loving all the farming that's going on on here. Hopefully we can take a leave from the animals' books!

In other news, my BFN was positive when I got home tonight. Must read peeonastick.com/hpt/cautionary.html

Struggling to keep up with all the posts at the mo :)

Still nothing to report here. AF is nearly finished so js will be commencing soon . Mooncup is best purchase in ages. A little practice and I was wondering why I ever used tampons!

Takethat if a kipper could be a website it would be the peeonastick website - really helpful. I have looked at it a couple of times when I have pulledapart been unsure of tests results.

Woah - googled 'mooncup'. Had no idea!

Boobs hurting again. Think they are connected to the appearance of late lines.

Sorry for all the dreadful typos in the last post. 'Take a leave'? That just shows I'm either pregnant, knackered or drunk. And it definitely isn't the latter.

Hope everyone else is holding up after crappy news and crappier doctors. Except for nervous that is, who should just pour herself another gin :)

Vallinna and crow, sorry you are having shit days. I prescribe G&Ts for everyone (trust me, I'm a midwife)

I'm thinking about last cycle and my horrendously achey boobs from day 21 onwards. As it turned out I wasn't upduffed, I thought perhaps it was imaginary. But I've just done a fair bit of pokidge and they are completely fine - I KNOW I wasn't imagining it, they fucking hurt! And they have never done that before, and it was for so long, well over a week. What does it meeeeeeeaaaaannnnnnn, viroids.

(Nothing of course, I know. But it's so infuriating when your body decides to do random stuff when you are TTC).

Ok, fucked off with this TTC lark good and proper now. To think 7 months ago my head was full of normal stuff! Where had that normal stuff now TTC has pushed it all out?!

CD24 for me out of about 26/27. Another BFN.

Oh, and this month I'm def going to be one of those women who cry when AF arrives

Brassica from someone who doesn't test positive until well after AF due date has been and gone, step away from the pee sticks!!!

Right logging myself out of MN before leaving DH alone with the computer for a week. He does not need to spend his time reading about all this!!!

Are there really no other viroids over 5'4? I feel all tall and giantish now.

I'm 5'7 is that helps?!

Nope, we are a bunch of short arses. Maybe that's why we're so mental relaxed.

Oh brassica I'm sick of sticks, aren't you? This morning I woke up knackered, but the thought of peeing in a ramekin got me excited enough to drag myself out of bed (I just polished off a jar of nutella so I have a lovely new container). Then I went into the bathroom and totally forgot and wasted all my FMU down the toilet. Now I have to wait another day to get a BFN

On the plus side, I'm finishing six years of work today. Vodka beckons ...

Whoops, cross-posted with someone of normal height

Oh, sorry Takethat! Must have got confused somewhere down the line. Sorry for BFN but yippee for shorter cycle!

Sorry for your BFN too Brassica

Oh god Crow that is absolutely disgusting!

Sorry you had a crappy day Vallinna

Hope everyone is feeling better today?

takethat's "wasted all my FMU down the toilet". In the cold light of day this just sums up how nuts we've all gone. Wasted wee down the loo?! Who'd have thought it!

PMSL

I am only 5'2! Hate being so small but my friends aren't much taller and DH is only 1/2 inch taller so not much of a problem. Mam is only 4'10 bless her! I feel like a giant when we go out!

I have horrendous toothache today - wisdom tooth coming through, is killing me!

And JSing will probably not happen this month as DH appears to have decided to live a life of celibacy!

Has he Josie? Why?

JSed last night, twas lovely. So much more relaxed this cycle with the fricking OPKs (having said that I am only CD11 so plenty of time to go bonkers).
