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). (But it does work).

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

Keep acronym-age 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.
OV is ovulation - I'm allowed to forget what date I've OVd, feel free to join me on that one!

Bunting is to be put out for any small victory, thread-parties are held regularly and hugs are always welcome! Grin

Once you have your BFP, feel free to hang around and share your wisdom and virtual cocktails with the JSers.

Keep us up to date with gossip!

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

Very very quiet around here today.

Come out, come out wherever you are viroids Grin

TorcherQueenie · 15/02/2011 15:16

Hello Smile hoping I can butt in with you all here. TTC for the first time (DD was a happy accident) never realised how bloody stressful it can be!

I have absolutly no clue what I should be doing beyond shagging obviously or if theres something that would help me get a little seamonkey in there Grin so if you'll have me I'm here to shag with you. Well not with you Hmm I'm terrible at introductions!

BamBam21 · 15/02/2011 16:13

LOL Torcher! Grin Welcome to our madness!

I'm in much the same boat as you. TTC for about 28 months now. With DS, I just came off the pill and that was that!

It has been SO quiet MrsDoll. Hoping all our viroids are too tired to MN after all that Valentine's JSing last night! Wink

MrsDollFace · 15/02/2011 16:36

Welcome to the madhouse Torcher :)

That'll what it is Bam We are going to have an influx of November babies all because of valentine's day

BamBam21 · 15/02/2011 16:54

Let's hope so Mrs Doll. Smile

TorcherQueenie · 15/02/2011 17:57

Thanks for the warm welcomes Smile no JS'ing for us tonight as DH's hip injury from a car crash when he was 11 is playing up and he can't move at all. Sad

LizzyMathsWhizzy · 15/02/2011 18:49

Thank you Nickel for the sensible slap back down to reality! Its all Crow's and BamBam's fault that I've been filling my ramekin early, they encouraged me. I hearby vow to avoid pissing on anything other than the toilet bowl until Saturday morning (I think I'm due Friday). Is it wrong that I've convinced myself that it doesn't matter, because I'm definitely pregnant, and will have 9 months to get used to it! Man I'm going to be upset if I'm wrong. fx

LizzyMathsWhizzy · 15/02/2011 18:49

Also welcome to Torcher Grin

caramelgirl · 15/02/2011 19:28

Hullo, would also like to join- have lurked for a while, but easier to read all your posts when DD is throwing gunky food around than to type my own.
She is 17m and was conceived instantly. I noticed my dates (for period) were same as for her conception as this year so thought it was Meant To Be. But it wasn't, or the next cycle and I have already convinced myself that I am doomed in Anne Boleyn way (or poss Queen Mary- am a Philippa Gregory fan) and will only have one daughter/lots of phantom pregnancy symptoms- constant prickly breasts now, pah.
Anyway, DH and I are both claiming that it is really great that we have to have all this sex all the time- even if we are both tired/wanting to read/bad backs etc.
Just come on (day early so didn't even get to POAS) and he is away from weekend for a while, so have now decided I'll prob be looking at a Christmas day baby - which I'd always thought was really cruel as all your presents in one go. Counting all my chickens, me?
Still, I am planning on enjoying drinking at hens weekend soon (whilst parents babysit), so there are upsides.
Sorry for essay, please can I be a viroid too?

LizzyMathsWhizzy · 15/02/2011 19:47

Of course you can be a viroid caramel, welcome to the madhouse Grin

babylann · 15/02/2011 22:14

Welcome caramel and Torcher.

How is everyone?

Still no BFP and still no ERTD. Though DP comments that I seem to have PMS as I'm constantly snapping at him. Maybe he's right. [grumble]

Went to view a lovely house yesterday that we're thinking of buying. We're not in the best position to buy, financially speaking, but we're fed up of paying our landlord's mortgage instead of our own. The house was really nice, I could see so much potential, but it's so much work because every single room will need decorating before we move in (hideous colours and a particular "smell" which offended my senses)... Hmm.. Feel like we owe it to DD though to have a house with a garden she can play in, and her own bedroom if we ever do manage to conceive DC2!

caramelgirl · 16/02/2011 08:37

Thanks Lizzie. Hope that you are holding off filling your lucky ramekin still. FX'd
Hmmm babylann, house wise, we are also renting, but have realised it might be an issue soon as we are near the Olympic area and a friend who owns has been promised £21k for moving out of her riverside flat for 30 days. It's a nice flat, but not super nice. So surely my landlord will be wanting to cash in. Tho' wonder if it will be a bit like the eclipse/millenium and people won't be as spendy as everyone is hyping it.
Sometimes a bit surprised that at 32, married, with a daughter, we are still living in someone else's house and occasionally renting a car.
Think I'd like the permanence of owning our own house and being able to escape magnolia walls. And I don't like uncertainty- which is why I find the whole pregnancy suspense thing hard too.
Oh well, sun is shining- wish you all a lovely day.

BamBam21 · 16/02/2011 15:19

Hi viroids! Welcome caramel!

That's great news nickel! How long (roughly) had your friend been trying for? At the rate this thread is getting BFPs, it will hopefully be all of our turns soon! FXGrin

Sorry if you thought I was getting at you Lizzy. Just get a bit over-excited, that's all. Blush

nickelbabe · 16/02/2011 15:27

about a year and a half, i think.
i cna't remember!
she came in, and normally, i say hi, and how's it going? any gossip? any news?
but this time i just went "hello! so are you pregnant?" and she said "yes" all matter-of-fact Grin

i jumped up and down and cheered!
Grin

BamBam21 · 16/02/2011 15:34

That's really great nickel. Hopefully she will be a fountain of advice when it's your turn - soon I'm sure! Smile

Lovely and peaceful at chez Bam today, as DS is staying with his gran, and DP is still at work. Reading my book and drinking coffee. Bliss! Grin

MrsDollFace · 16/02/2011 15:38

That's lovely Nickel :)

babylann · 16/02/2011 16:38

Congratulations for your friend nickel! I bet you're over the moon Grin

I completely agree with you caramel, but have to say if there was the option of 21k I'd probably consider sticking around for a bit longer too! I just really want freedom to decorate and garden, and it's got a huge kitchen which makes me swoon (I've always got the idealist view of me cooking away, watching the kiddies run around in the back garden, all of us coming around the dinner table in the evening - I'm sure it would be a lot more hectic than that, but still!)

I've had a tearful day today. I guess it confirms DP's theory of PMS. I got all moody thinking about not getting this new house, not being able to have a baby, and then my mum said something really quite offensive (though she alleges she hadn't "realised") and I just turned on the tear ducts and got emotional. And usually I'm very tolerant of my mum, who very often doesn't think before she speaks, so it was quite unusual.

However, last time I was pregnant I cried at a dance on Strictly Come Dancing so I guess it doesn't necessarily have to be PMS. I just want answers! Gaahh. DP says I can't take another test til Friday, which seems reasonable enough.

nickelbabe · 16/02/2011 16:53
Grin

it's not PMs!
it's POAS Grin

LizzyMathsWhizzy · 16/02/2011 18:57

I'm not doing great today, turns out I was pregnant, but I'm not any more. I had really horrific cramps in the night, and a terrible bleed this morning. My husband was so worried he rang an ambulance, and I've only just been allowed home. It was an ectopic pregnancy, so they had to do a little operation to get rid of it.

I don't really know where I am at the moment, I'll be back when I feel up to it. Its only been two months we've tried, but I'm so emotionally exhausted I'm wondering if I'm ready to have kids in the first place.

I rang up to tell my mum, but she wasn't home, and my dad told me she has OfSted in, so I can't talk to her about it, she's the head and will be ridiculously stressed.

Sorry about the long post, all I can say is thank fuck its half term next week.

MrsDollFucker · 16/02/2011 20:04

Oh Lizzy :( So sorry

NervousNelly · 16/02/2011 20:40

Oh Lizzy I'm so sorry :( We will be here whenever you need us, and whatever for. Be that Wine or Brew or an ear to bend.

Welcome to the Newbies Caramel and torcher. We're a bit crazy but I hope you'll like hanging around with us :)

Babylann fingers crossed it's not PMS. Grin

Does anyone know if I can take co-codamol at this stage? I'm, errrm, only 1DPO, but had this thought that ibuprofen wasn't recommended as it might inhibit implantation I have a very sore back, and am walking around like a granny Blush.

Anyway I'm trying wine for it's famous painkilling properties, so that might be enough till I go to sleep Wink.

babylann · 16/02/2011 20:41

Oh no Lizzy :( I'm so sorry. You must be so upset and shaken up. I can't imagine how you must be feeling right now but thinking of you and hoping you get all the support you need.
