Thread for the fanjo-furkling, red-fecker-hating, ramekin-peeing JSers

[takethatlady]

The (updated) '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). Horse-riding and other dangerous activities are also actively encouraged.

Covet thy husband and enjoy every minute. Shag at ever opportunity - shag-capes and awesome superpowers optional.

Keep acronmyage to a minimum! EWCM is now to be referred to as 'pant snot'. Try not to get sucked in by Fertility Friend (at least for a while), but knowing where you are in your cycle and furkling for pant snot is most definitely allowed. If you're a midwife, you can even get other midwives to furkle for you

Keep us up to date with gossip!

Most of these rules are well and truly broken!! But we try to chill - honest

Cross-posted with TTL. It is not you developing an air of general lunacy - it is defo DH, he should know to tell you non-preg things at least 5 or 6 times before expecting you to remember

Thanks mog, you're right. I knew he was to blame

Quite right to kipper miffles. Sounds like you're perilously close to a kipper yourself.

I did another test today. I LOVE tests

tee hee - testing on CD2 mog!! Who would be that silly....Ha ha!!

So know what you mean about them calling to you. TTL - if I remember, you'd finished yours, so you must have bought MORE if you were testing again today!!

Agree - your DH is completely in the wrong. Totally. He should have known the dating scan was going to be booked then, and re-arranged the trip before you even had to tell him about the scan!!

And withdrawal method, I'd say, mog

Evenng everyone
I'm so with the whole pregnancy tests making you want to pee on them! Not this time round but when i was trying for baby 2 they were shouting that loud i could hear them in tescos never mind the one si had at home!!
Ok pant snot ladies...talk me through it (dear god not in too much detail though!) i ask because i've always ahd icky time sof the month where i've thought i was just a bit of a dirty bitch and needed to wash better cos it was rather horrid down there. Right now is one of those times. So pant snot is a sign of what exactly? Does it mean i have to take my husband upstairs and jump his bones like now?!

stop chatting on here, 321 and get shagging!!!

Oh Miffles haven't been on in a couple of days and just catching up and saw your post about you AIBU post and wanted to give you a HUGE hug. I posted in there once after my first MC and also ended up in tears. Honestly I believe that the people who frequent the board do it to get some kind of sadistic kick out of kicking people when they are down. I hate it and try to avoid those posts because of all the nasty hate filled replies.

Dyna I'm from NZ and living in Stirling. lived in Edinburgh for a short while though (now wonderng if I know you, hmm ) Also DS is proof that quite a bit of wine in the early weeks of pg is okay.

321 pant snot is a sign of ovulation, so i hope you've jumped your DH's bone well and truely! ...

well my excuse for not being about yesterday is that as soon as I saw the party mentioned on Tuesday I downed a bottle of my Russian Friend (vodka) and spent most of yesterday in bed feeling VERY sick. Okay so the first bit is wishful thinking a fib, but not the second bit.

I've never seen so many viroids so pleased to have the periods arrive. Roll on the madness huh?

Good moaning

In the office today, but boss is working from home, so might manage some sneaky MNing.

AIBU is a dangerous place miffles Poor you.

CD5 and I've managed not to pee on any sticks yet.

I'm a bit worried that DH is a little too keen this month. After being a bit oblivious to the "how, what and when" aspects of TTC he seems more cluded up now. (finally listening?). But this means I've had jokes about eating for 2 and peeing on sticks. All very lovely, but there is no reason this month should be any different to the others and I don't want him to get too excited. However I fear it's too late.

In other news, my baby sister is pg. She's only 5 weeks. But her and DH are staying with mum and dad for a while so they didn't think they could keep it quiet. A bit scarey though as I and others on this great thread had MCed at weeks greater than than. Fingers crossed though.

Hey girls,

Congrats to your sister bb. If you get your BFP soon you and your sister can go through it together :) MN really makes you feel much more precarious about pregnancies though, doesn't it? On the June thread it feels like every other person who's had their scan is coming back with bad news. I'm sure there are just more of us on these threads who've had problems than not - remember kitten? Those who haven't got probs tend to be on here for a bit but then be off and away. I'm sure your sister will be fine.

My my mum is driving me a bit mental because she doesn't get it that the pregnancy might not work out, despite what happened last time. We asked her to keep it low key, but she's texting and phoning all the time with excited pregnancy-related messages, trying to get us to go to her house in Christmas 2011 so she can see the baby at its first Christmas (never mind us or the other grandparents!), engineering ways to be at the birth, and has blatantly told people we asked her not to tell ... she also thinks I'm being over-anxious. Maybe I am, but I know nothing is set in stone yet. That's why I'm still loitering about on here driving all you guys nuts!

Anyway, really it's lovely that she's excited, and I am being a big mean grump.

nomorechoc good work with the gag reflex vodka :) Hope you are having a ms hangover-free day :)

321 hope you successfully wrestled your DH to the floor.

I made mine a lasagne, got him a beer, watched the footie with him (before Apprentice) and generally resembled a nice wife last night in the hopes that acting like one will actually turn me into one No shagging though. At first I was irrationally afraid of shagging, then it turns out he is too in case it does any harm. We both know it won't and that this is ridiculous, but somehow we've restricted ourselves mainly to other stuff since the BFP. Getting a bit silly now, so roll on the scan and a post-scan shagathon!

How's kitten takethat?

It's nice that your mum is excited. But I imagine it can get pesky! Yeah for wifely acting!

I don't know - I think she must be on the April or May boards. But I just meant we barely got the chance to get to know her because all was fine :)

We all know each other so well because we're a bunch of freaks

Yep, I second the "bunch of freaks" sentiment!

When can I poas?! I love the whiff of 2WW mentalness in the morning! It's setting in viroids!

Well technically you can POAS any time you like

How many DPO are you? I say 9DPO is the earliest I'd test ...

Hope frak doesn't come checking up on us otherwise I'm getting kippered ...

Only 5DPO. Going to have to wait a bit longer I guess (4 days and counting ....

Feel a bit weird this month. Feel caught between "it's never going to happen and I need to make an appointment for IVF" and "we did everything right, doubled the clomid dose and have an Ov temp spike, it's got to be this month". TTC proper fecks with mind doesn't it!

Yep. It does

Just had to rebook my scan for 25th November. The woman at the hospital was NOT happy and said I can only change it if I don't have the nuchal scan!

But I suppose the dating scan is the most important and the fact that DH is there - both because he wants to be there and because if something is wrong it would be bloody awful if he was stuck in Dublin and I was on my own.

Now just got to bloody get through to the midwife! Lucky I'm off with a cold. Also had about 30 seconds of feeling like I was monumentally hungover earlier, and was about to throw up. It's gone now though, so I'm wondering if I made it up ...

Hugs to BB. I really, really hope it works out this month for you, not that I'm God or anything like that, but I just think you deserve it! That's great news about your sister too!

TTL Fab news about scan booking! This stage is all about waiting and it's head-wrecking, isn't it? I remember with DD I was on another site and it just seemed like everyone had horrible things happening, but then you have to put it into perspective - there are hundreds of people on these sites and someone is bound to have problems unfortunately. You just have to believe everything will be ok. You could always get a private scan to put your mind at ease, but I don't know how much they cost over there.
Nomore sorry about the ms hangover!

I am having a bit of a moment - I have to fly to the UK in December for a wedding and, if this cycle is successful that would mean that I'd be pregnant then and I'm really worried about flying because I heard it's not recommended during the 1st trimester, so anyway, I was thinking of not trying this month. BUT there's the issue of my dd who, next year will go to pre-school and I don't want to time the birth of a 2nd with that, but I don't want to wait ... wahhhhh! Someone slap me with a big kipper. I might not get pregnant for years FFS, so I suppose you just have to deal with whatever happens, right?

Hey milano, glad you are well.

Get your head out of the fridge, get shagging and book that flight though!

Read this

You'll be fine :).

Morning all,

Not really sure if I fit here or on another thread...

I post regularly on another forum but am sick of being there as such a fecking misery guts.

My stats - cycle 5 TTC #2. Not able to udnerstand the fertility (un)friend website, nor wish to if I'm honest. Finding myself turning into a BFP hater. I get horrificly envious of anyone's BFP's IRL mainly or other online 'friends' who were pregnant with #1 same time as me. I am fine around bumps or even new babies but luckily whenever a friend has recently announced a BFP it has been via text/email etc.

2 of my NCT group are 20ish weeks pregnant which hit hard as I wanted to TTC from when #1 was 4 weeks old and they all thought I was bonkers.

#1 was conceived very quickly without even having reached the decision we were definitely TTC. A fab surprise!

Not sure what route to go down here now as getting worse with my miserable mood each month that passes.

Apologies as I have come here to indulge my bitching, whining and downright miserly self for fear of ruining my friendships!

Off to browse other threads to see if I should be elsewhere but hi!

Just wait til you're sleep deprived with your new born baby Brassica then all the fun and games of TTC will seem like a gentle game of go fish Totally worth it of course though.

twowoulddo we can cheer you up.

Firstly five cycles is nothing to worry about. You were lucky before and you'll get there this time.

Secondly we allow drinking, flying on aeroplanes, al fresco and otherwise risque shagging, the eating of pate and runny eggs, and all the other stuff you're not meant to do while ttc but which makes you feel better anyway. And we haven't got a bad success rate :)

So I say the best cure for feeling fed up with ttc is getting your sparkliest shag cape on, downing your favourite tipple and riding your DP with randy abandon :)

Really really hope this is your month bb :)

takethatlover Thanks for your message, how many weeks are you? Sounds like a nerve wracking time.

I curse myself daily as I know that 5 cycles is nothing relatively speaking but am petrified of a.) wishing my life away, b.) a BFP not resulting in a baby... See I am mad...

I think sadly, sometimes too much knowledge can be a bad thing and in my case just now it certainly is.

Oops, faux pas already!!! I of course meant takethatlady

I am so worried about option b) that I'm refusing to leave this thread until I'm relatively certain about it.

Worry is a good thing - shows you are mental enough for this thread care :)

That's alright. Really I am the lover of all members of Take That and especially of Mark. (They are goooood, let me tell you). But I just call myself takethatlady as a cover for all the loving

Lots of cross posting there as I had to go play mega bloks train (oh the hardships of being a SAHM!).

Milano I've never heard that flying is bad during the first trimester. Only in the third (mostly because airlines don't want you giving birth mid flight!)

Twowould hello and welcome. Think I've seen you around on other threads. Sounds like you could use one of these ! There is plenty of self indulgent ranting in here, just be prepared for all the hugging too

My 'hangover' has eased off today and as long as I don't spend to much time standing up I'm okay. Fecking starving actually.
