Confused by all the TTC talk? OPKs? Taking your temperature?! Then this is the thread for you! We want babies the good old-fashioned way - through drunken, spontaneous shagging at any time of the month Grin. All you need is a man, Wine, ramekins and a batch of cheapo pregnancy sticks, and you're good to go! (Shag-capes and actual Sex optional)

The group is so successful that you can see the results for yourself in our graduates thread full of mamas who JSed their way to motherhood. Getting a BFP within a few weeks is known as "doing a kitten", and due to the secret and magical powers of the Just Shagging thread, this happens from time to time.

We have our own TTC language - EWCM is now known as "pant snot", AF is now "ERTD" (Evil red tide of DOOM!), OV is ovulation, and of course, JSing is Just Shagging!

Viroids is our name of choice, the reason is long since lost in the annals of time. If you really feel the need to take a test, Gu Ramekins are what all the classy birds are using. And of course, drinking is essential. Sometimes, we even remember to have sex Wink

Old thread is here if you want proof it works!

Come join us!

Hello Abernethy! Feeling hopeful?! You're going to pull a kitten on us! Grin

Kittenkatzen · 23/05/2012 18:03

Hello abernethy :)

Is anyone taking the Pregnacare Conception tablets? I have a question if so, but it's a bit TMI so I won't Blush myself until I know there's someone to actually ask!

mandasand · 23/05/2012 18:12

hello aber and welcome! fancy a brew, anyone? Brew

i am sat here with my laptop on my knee looking at my fat belly. I swear I look 6 months pregnant but there's nothing in there but coffee and bloatedness! :(

nice that you understand the full siblings thing, woman :) it's also being close together in age too. I love the idea of three kids out in the garden, causing small bits of havoc and learning to socialise from each other, while DH and I look benignly on, wondering at our luck Grin hmm, remind me of that idyll when it (hopefully) all comes to pass and I'm tearing my hair out, hehe!

HPT and FMU ... more acronyms to learn! I really must keep up Wink

off to the lottie for a couple of hours later. if we shag in the shed again (ever, hehe!) I've been thinking that I'm really going to have to get a stool. DH is about a foot taller than me and the vertical shagging logistics are awkward to say the least! :)

mandasand · 23/05/2012 18:13

hello kitten, I am taking those! (and surely nothing is TMI on here!)

somethingwittynot · 23/05/2012 18:18

im taking those and my DP is taking folic acid i read somewhere it does something good! so whats the tmi question then? Grin and like mandasand says nothing is TMI here!

Kittenkatzen · 23/05/2012 18:52

I guess it's not that tmi, but.....have they made your wee go really bright?! It's exactly the same as when you have Berocca....but then Berocca is pretty much fluorescent so it's kind of expected...but these seem to have the same effect on me! So yeah, was just wondering really....Blush

Enjoy the lottie mandasand :o

mandasand · 23/05/2012 19:06

Yes, it's yellower! I've never taken Berocca (had to look it up!) but it was the same with a veggie/vegan supplement I used to take so am not alarmed. You too, something? Or do we just have weird wee?! :)

Frakiosaurus · 23/05/2012 19:20

Hello abernethy

Yep nothing TMI, nothing sacred!

lottie I hear you on the vertical shagging logistics.

I'm still feeling a bit wobbly - although pragmatically speaking conception is highly unlikely given that I have no periods. I just knew that today I needed to pack the baby stuff away and part if me was sort of hoping that the maternity clothes might need to be air freighted (just in case I develop a huge bump before September....) rather than put in the container. But no.

Oh well. I have a new polka dot bikini to cheer me up Wink

Frakiosaurus · 23/05/2012 19:22

Oh I noticed yellower wee when I starts taking supplements. I suppose when I stop the wee will go back to being less bright!

babylann · 23/05/2012 19:46

I am doing the same think Frak. Got a big pile of stuff "for ebay". We were about to put on some of DD's old clothes a few months ago thinking "By the time we have another baby, we'll just buy new, it will be better to de-clutter" but then, we decided to start ttc again now they're just there in a huge ugly box by the window. It'd need to be a girl for them to come into use again anyway!

OP posts:
Kittenkatzen · 23/05/2012 21:37

Oh good, very glad it's not just me then, thanks ladies :)

frak sounds like you're taking an exciting journey soon then?

Persuasion · 23/05/2012 21:50

Oh that's rubbish frak Sad

kitten I'm on those too, my wee is also flourescent.

something you don't have to answer if you don't want to but I'm desperate to know what poisition you JSed in in the park so as not to get caught?! It's been a while since I had sex outside and think I'm past it now but would like to know just in case the opportunity arises Blush

In terms of kids, I'm also an only child, and would really like more than one. Ideally 3 but who knows what will happen. May change my mind after the 1st one!

No JSing for me today, have been at work late and am not home yet, and way too tired anyway.

Kittenkatzen · 23/05/2012 22:07

Hurray for the fluorescent wee gang! :o

Ooh something I was wondering that too but didn't want to ask!

somethingwittynot · 23/05/2012 22:37

ok ladies i will give details Grin well we did it twice. one very classy shag against a tree and then another with me on top i will add we were in a shady corner.

havent looked at my wee but i will look before bed and report back! this actually reminds me of something i read on MN. Apparently if you wee standing up through the toilet roll tube its like pissing like a man Grin

SunshineandChoccy · 24/05/2012 08:16

Hello to abernethy hope you enjoy the banter and sisterly love on here.

High five to something I did wonder what position you were in at the park Grin super super brave of you!!

On the amount of kiddies front, I'm from a big family of 6 mostly half brothers and sisters but it always felt good knowing you had so many people to share your life with so on that front I want a big family too but since the cost of living is increasing I'm hoping that 4 won't be too far a stretch, poor OH doesn't know the master plan eheheheheheh but I think he will enjoy it since he really loves children in general

somethingwittynot · 24/05/2012 11:01

right yes i have fluro wee Grin

im the middle of 5 two older brothers 2 younger sisters! getting back in the saddle tomorrow i really cant wait

RIBS · 24/05/2012 12:29

Hi Ladies, I thought I might join in for a cuppa and a chat.

Loving the out door nookie malarky, last time I tried that I was in a car and got found by the police. Fortunately he found the funny side and didnt cart us off. Oh happy days!!

Im 37 nearly 38 have 1 DD who's 3 and been trying for #2 since jan last yr had a mmc last dec (Friday the bloody 13th!!!) due date would be 30th June but still not up the duff. Have pcos, but think its just the cysts not the syndrome if thats even possible, and on clomid at the mo - but 3m on no joy. I also have fluro wee!! .. And it smells of sugar puffs a bit!

So we're just banging away this month like a couple of teenagers. It sounds like im in good company! On CD9, got jiggy last night and gonna go right thru til BFP or ERTD arrives. God knows what letters il be sticking where im shit with acro doo da's as it is!! Grin

topbannana · 24/05/2012 13:59

Welcome ribs you should feel at home here :)

something and manda get you and your outdoor JSing!

DH and I (well DH anyway) are quite conservative and tend not to do "things like that" though our "first time" was an ever so romantic JS in the back of the car, in a field in the middle of nowhere. To this day when we drive past I always point out a gap in the hedge and wonder aloud how many people saw DH's white arse bobbing up and down on that fateful day :o Come to think of it thats probably why he stays firmly indoors with the curtains tightly drawn now! Hmm

I am one of two, though my brother and I were never close so I don't feel DS is really missing out on a strong, lifelong sibling bond. I always saw myself having one son, which is what I have, and never envisioned I would ever be frequenting a thread like this, nor becoming irrationaly annoyed everytime I have to buy tampons. As they say, you should be careful what you wish for Hmm

I think ERTD must be on the way :( I had not had any feelings (and therefore already worked out my due date and dusted off the baby names book) but managed to have an argument with DH last night, bizarrely about Horrible Histories (wtf?!) DH came home in an "antsy mood" which I normally just ignore and leave him to recover, which is normally reasonably quick. Last night though I found ignoring the niggling very hard and we ended up arguing and me then becoming upset and huffy that I am neglected etc etc. (wtf again?!) So today I feel a little crampy which all bodes quite badly really, though does fit in with my rough estimates of the dates so I may actually be getting somewhere. And it will also mean I can eat, drink and be merry (and JS of course!) while on holiday :)

babylann · 24/05/2012 15:39

Welcome RIBS

Sorry to hear about your ERTD on the way, but yay for holiday and cycle making a bit more sense :)

Not much to add here. Didn't JS yesterday and phone app says I've got 22 days left before my next ERTD, which assumes I'm going to have a 42 day cycle, which I bloody hope not! I have told DP I will be testing next Saturday.

Oh that reminds me, need to go buy some tests from ebay.

babylann · 24/05/2012 15:40

Oh, that second sentence was aimed at topbannana, just forgot to "tag"

Kittenkatzen · 24/05/2012 15:57

Welcome ribs - to the thread and to the radioactive wee gang :)

Sorry to hear your having a hard time TTC at the moment, hopefully we can help keep you focused on the JSing for a bit!

I was just about to say that DH and I don't do "things like that" either, but I've just remembered the time we dtd in a tent on a busy campsite with the door open (think we got caught in the moment)....we had to freeze and pretend to be reading a magazine as an old couple walked past haha :o

topbanana boo to ERTD possibly being on the way, but hurrah to unrestricted holiday fun!

topbannana · 24/05/2012 16:02

kitten do you normally read magazines naked with your DH on top of you? If so that was a cunning disguise, if not well............... Wink :o

somethingwittynot · 24/05/2012 16:04

welcome ribs i to have done it in several cars once on a bridleway near the local dogging spot Grin

having a lazy day today got a takeaway from the local harvester even though its only 2 mins away

Kittenkatzen · 24/05/2012 16:06

haha actually no, funnily enough! we were mostly clothed and spooning so a quick shuffle and everything was hidden :o

Kittenkatzen · 24/05/2012 16:06

and now my colleague wants to know what I'm laughing at......shall I tell him?! :o
