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!

this pregnancy is so different already! ERTDs have been irregualar since DS and all been different lengths so i think its mainly for that. will also be very reasuring and seem "real" i think.

yeah we had a lot of problems last time but so far so good! what gave my BFP away was wanting coffee. i hate coffee and only want it when im pregnant.

Hmm, just went to the loo and had some bright red on the paper. ERTD normally starts dark browny red so no idea what this is. Was going to PIAR in the morning but probably won't now unless I see no more blood :(

babyjames · 19/06/2012 18:43

Sorry South :(

southlundon · 19/06/2012 19:52

I know. I kept telling myself that it would be fine but of course I'm gutted. Haven't had the balls to check again but it's always better to assume that it's ERTD, right?

On a completely different note, I found THIS in Classics and it had me crying with laughter. If you need a laugh, go and read it :)

fryingpantoface · 19/06/2012 20:23

I bled several times with ds, went to the hospital and everything was fine. It wasn't until I was in labour I was told I have something on my cervix which means I bleed if it gets even slightly irritated. I wish they'd told me sooner!

I've read that thread before and just howled the whole way through.

fryingpantoface · 19/06/2012 20:25

Poas south. If you are pregnant, it'll show now won't it?

southlundon · 19/06/2012 20:37

Thanks Frying, yes I will still PIAR (only got cheapy Internet ones so can't POAS!) perhaps in the morning if nothing else happens down there or Thurs.

Have been googling - dangerous I know - and I'm wondering if it's just spotting. I'll know more in the morning though.

Hope you're all having nice evenings :)

Oh and following on from the thread I sister above, I wonder if this still works... Bear

southlundon · 19/06/2012 20:37

Yes! Bear [bear

southlundon · 19/06/2012 20:38

Dur, meant to say that that was [ bear ] Grin

I wonder how many other 'secret' emoticons there are out there?

fryingpantoface · 19/06/2012 20:43

There really should be a cake icon

southlundon · 19/06/2012 20:57
Cake
southlundon · 19/06/2012 20:58

Hmm, I should have known that would happen. Hmm

(Yay Rooney!)

NicolaHazel · 19/06/2012 21:06

Half way through that thread now...I keep snorting with laughter!

Bloody turps to a tombola?!

babyjames · 19/06/2012 21:11

South- there is still hope. Fingers crossed for you.

I'm going to check that thread now :)

Yay Rooney :)

Just been past that...I snorted again. Much to H2B's derision!

babyjames · 19/06/2012 22:02

lol lol lol Bear

I so needed that laugh. DH keeps saying whats so funny :) :) :)

thanks for the link

fryingpantoface · 19/06/2012 23:26

Pombear anyone? Ha ha ha

Well, we js! as it's not ov time, he felt less stressed. Apparently he's been keeping track on an app. God knows where he's.getting his data, as my period hasn't started yet! At least he's keen

southlundon · 20/06/2012 07:42

Morning all. A bit more sporting so going to keep an eye on it but I fully expect it to turn into ERTD. I don't want to PIAR as if it's a BFP and ERTD comes I'll think of it more like a MC than a late ERTD, iykwim? Anyway, focus focus focus on my DS is my mantra.

Hope you all have lovely days.

southlundon · 20/06/2012 07:42

*spotting (of course)

fryingpantoface · 20/06/2012 09:55

I. understand what you mean south. Fingers crossed it's just the baby getting settled, if not, then you stay with us a bit longer :)

AWomanCalledHorse · 20/06/2012 13:37

south, I understand what you mean. Hope ERTD has sorted her(?)self out & it's not the other thing.

frying, My DH has been keeping track on when we've JS..I think we should leave the thread & let our OH's take over as they seem to be more into it! Grin

Hope everyone is having a nice day, we've got glorious sunshine (and a ratty, teething baby)!

southlundon · 20/06/2012 14:18

The sun is hiding now :( But I'm working anyway so it means I am not longing to head outside :)

Nothing much happening on the ERTD front. Still spotting but brown not red, which is a good sign I think? Will probably cave in and PIAR later but I think you have to wait 4 hours after the last wee for the hormone to concentrate if you're not testing first thing in the morning? Or is that just when doing an early test and now I'm 8 days late I should be okay after a couple of hours??? WWYD? Confused
