Last thread was here

The (updated)(again)(again) 'rules' from our Just Shagging Originator for the Viroids:

Maintain a relaxed attitude at all times - drink if you want too, especially on your birthday (or when you've had bad news). Thread precedent dictates if you drink to excess you will get a BFP (but not recommended). (It just takes longer to get in the mood

Afternoon

Vallinna thank god everything is ok!

I have had plenty of made up symptoms over the past few months GrinBlush

Not a lot going on here today. Had training this morning and actually enjoyed it Shock, and then visited a friend who works in the training dept while I was there and it was fab. I was star pupil and got to leave the training early but ended up leaving the building after every one else had gone as I was chatting to old friend too much Blush and DH was sat waiting outside for me, hee hee Grin Was actually a fab morning though!

Glad you had a good morning josie. I'm marking essays, and it started off fun but now I'm going to slit my throat the next time I see a semi-colon in the wrong place or see someone spell Shelley without the 'e', as if he comes from the beach ...

cheeser my last job was fixed term and I looked into maternity pay just in case (and my friend at the same place had a baby). I think you get exactly the same pay/benefits as if you were on a permanent contract. I'm not sure how that works if the leave goes over the time of the fixed term. It's either

a) you can take the leave/benefits up to the point at which your contract would have ended. Or
b) they are obliged, if possible, to add on the remaining months/years of your fixed term to the end of the contract (so if you had a year left, took a year off on leave, you'd still have a year left afterwards).

For some reason b) rings the most bells but I don't think it can be right ...

Will check.

Great news Valinna, whoop! Have some very exciting lemonade, or something to celebrate!

Thanks for spotting me NoChoc, should've really got rid of the festive name. But then should've really got rid of the Christmas cards too by now!

In all seriousness, is anyone here left of the old guard who's been trying for about 10 months??

We've had quite a few 'missed' months where we've got too drunk or been too cross on the right days been apart etc, but obviously it has actually been a while. NOt hte year that doctors suggest you try for before getting concerned, but a while. Am pondering a doctors' appointment with added lying about the amount of JSing we've done...

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 13/01/2011 19:27

Blush sorry 30 didn't twig it was you under festive guise.

aStarWithHerOwnWays · 13/01/2011 19:52

vallinna so glad things are okay :)

to everyone else, hope all is well and there are lots more BFPs flying out of the collective ramekin. All okay here: I have a scan in 2 weeks so still feeling cautious till then, but have a noticeable bump already and still feel like crap one way or another.

DH has been job hunting and has just been offered a really good job, yay :) So we will hopefully be moving from E Mids to somewhere around Sutton in the next 6 weeks or so. Anyone have any location-based advice for me? I'm from SE London originally, not familiar with Surrey.

crowette · 13/01/2011 21:32

Good evening ladies!! Glad everything is ok with vallina and that everyone else seems to be in good spirits :)

Am now just on the 2WW and already symptom spotting Hmm have felt queasy the last couple of mornings, which only goes after I'd had lunch - I can eat before that, but still feel icky. Waaaay too early for anything yet anyway! Also felt very tired today (too many late nights, sitting up in bed til early hours playing sudoku with OH - shows how old we're getting :() Boobs feel tender (but I did tighten up my bra a notch today) Clumsy as anything and not being able to spell/type/function (again, due to tiredness)

I am not going to POAS until I'm at least a week late, just to make sure ... hahaha, will I stick to that??? Going by the above, that's a resounding nooooo!! Grin

deemented · 13/01/2011 21:39

Smile I can do shagging!!! Or i can when my legs better..

Anyways... does anyone know how long it might take for my periods to return after coming off cerazette?

My last one was in september time, iirc, but have been on pill for about ten months or so, since DS3 was about 6 weeks.

Been off pill for about three weeks now, so getting impatient - want ERTD to arrive so we can get shagging!!

Truffkin · 13/01/2011 21:40

Hi viroids, Vallinna so pleased all is well, the pod obviously likes it in there far too much to be going anywhere for a while!

Merkin we've actually been TTC for almost 8 months but I've only been on here for about 6 I think. If nothing happens for us in the next couple of months we may need to take a break anyway as the original plan was to move back to the Midlands whilst I was on mat leave, but now may just need to look for a new job and make the move before TTC again. I hate grown up decisions Smile

DarkStar great news about your DH's job, things are really coming together for you!

PissOrnMoiStick · 14/01/2011 09:38

Hello everyone. Please can I join this thread? I used to be called GetOrfMoiLand and you may have seen my POAS thread (which was neg).

Talked about a baby last year, but me and DP had our practical heads on and decided no to ttc. However these past few days have made me and DP realised that we would love a baby, so we are going to try.

But dd is 15, I have NO IDEA how to try for a baby, when I ovulate etc, so need an idiots guide to ttc really!

hiddenme · 14/01/2011 09:43

As POML and Reality have been so open I feel I should out myself as FoghornLeghorn. Have already mistakely outed myself twice so was rubbish at being inconspicous anyway

panpipe · 14/01/2011 09:47

Well the results are in for me and........computer says 'no'. Boo. Now I just need to wait for whenever the feck ERTD decides to show up - we're 5 days over at the moment!

JosieSmith1 · 14/01/2011 10:56

Morning everyone

Not much to report here except very upset with DH. He complained this morning that he was tired and hadn't had a lie in all week as he's been off work but taking me in and doing horsey for me in mornings. I told him to do it twice a day for 6 months, whilst working full time and doing all the housework, then he could complain about being tired Grin

Anyway, I am currently at work awaiting an apology Grin It had better come in time for JSing....

vallinnapod · 14/01/2011 11:18

Welcome all you newbies in disguise Wink

Josie - I find apologies are always very forthcoming when there is the promise of sex!

nickelbabysnatcher · 14/01/2011 11:23

Aw, hello GOML!
Grin

to be on this thread, you're mainly disencouraged from knowing when your OV date is, how long your cycle is, how much of this that and the other you might need to do to ttc, all we do is JS and not worry. Confused

although, we all break the rules.
apart from me, because I genuinely have no clue about my cycle Grin

and thanks hiddenme for outing yourself! Grin

nickelbabysnatcher · 14/01/2011 11:24

sooooooo very glad i read it again! GrinBlush

vallinnapod · 14/01/2011 11:40

Speak of horny things...randy sex dreams last night Confused

nickelbabysnatcher · 14/01/2011 11:44

ooh, tell all!
my only dreams lately have been of the roof leaking/collapsing and costing me lots of money. :(

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 14/01/2011 11:48

I knew GOML was going to end up here! Grin My poor DH must have thought I was being right anti social last night waiting for that BFN! Grin (honest I have a life, really)

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 14/01/2011 11:50

I dreamt a fellow upduff viroid was telling the rest of us upduffers to bugger off to the grad thread BlushBlush

Vannilla's sounds much more fun

GoldFrakkincenseAndMyrrh · 14/01/2011 11:59

Popping on to catch up and my oh my is there catching up to do.

Congrats to all the BFPs but special meantion to:

Brassica - WTF? twins?! Double congrats!

Vallinna - huuuuge congrats too! My heart was in my mouth reading the posts midway up the thread.

I clearly need to come on here more often....

This is becoming the MN Royalty TTC thread, isn't it?

GetOrfMoiLand · 14/01/2011 12:12

Thanks Nickel - I should fit in then. I have no idea about my cycle, I have a period every 4-6 weeks, but only am on for half a day so it is pretty much blink and you miss it.

When I had dd a lifetime ago I was't actually ttc - so to actually try for a baby is really new for me.

All this ovulation stuff I have no clue about - i said to DP last night 'you pee on a stick and it changes colour and then it means you are ovulation so you have sex...' and he looked at me as if I was making it all up Grin. Perhaps I am, god knows.

GetOrfMoiLand · 14/01/2011 12:13

lol at MN royalty TTC thread - hardly! I still feel like a newbie and am pathetically delighted when someone like Custardo, Expat or Aitch answers me on a thread Grin

Reality is royalty, though.

OOOOH

I have just been on the ovulation calendar (I never knew such things existed in life) and put in my approximate dates (even though they vary I based it on 6 weeks).

So - my fertile days were end dec/beg Jan, which fits in with (ahem) drunken new years eve sex.

Apparently though according to that I am not due on til 17th Jan. So period is not late then. But I still have fizzy tits so will wait til next week to see if I come on.

nickelbabysnatcher · 14/01/2011 13:21

Envy at your half day period though. Envy

STEP AWAY FROM THE OVULATION CALENDAR!!!
