Just Shagging Part 10; No science or skill, JS at will!

AWomanCalledHorse · 27/06/2012 14:03

Welcome to the lazy way to make a baby, part 10!!

Just Shagging (JS) is ttc using ye olde shagging & crossing fingers methods, our tools are your body, OH?s body..urm some wine & lots of finger crossing.

All are welcome, most leave happy & upduffed! The last two threads have been very successful; thread 8 had 5 BFP?s, thread 9 had 6 BFP?s....so we?re due 7 BFP?s here, which means we all need to get shagging.

We don?t ?do?; OPKS, taking temp or harcore charting...although it is nice to know when ERTD is due.
Which brings us to acronyms & slang;
AF=ERTD (Evil Red Tide Of Doom).
EWCM=Pant Snot
Getting a BFP soon after joining thread= Doing a kitten
You=Are a viroid, no idea why but it goes long back to the dawn of time.
DTD=JS or donning the Shag cape.
POAS=Sometimes referred to as PIAR (Pissing In A Ramekin), as we?re such classy ladies

Here is last thread for proof that it works, and that you can't shut us up Grin

Here is the Graduates thread!

Hi Orange, i agree it can be overwhelming. This thread is very non-scary though! Just the right amount of useful info, minus the mental!

Off-topic, how many breakfasts can one person reasonably eat in a day? Already had one on the first flight home, and another in the lounge, but now the muffins are calling again!

Practisingparent · 18/08/2012 07:13

Hi girls, have not been feeling very positive here, I said I would test this morning, but the last few days, have felt its just too early to test as ERTD is only due on Monday. And Iv been going a bit mental every time I go to the loo, thinking ERTD is here already. Iv been trying to stick to a healthy diet, but cracked the last couple of nights cos I felt ERTD was definately on the way with cramps and stuff.

on a funny note, at work, my colleague (male) said there was something different about me, that I was glowing, and gave me a knowing look, I joked it off of course, but I couldnt help but get a little excited. (Random men must know what they are talking about, right?)

Anyway so I have PIAR this morning, cos of my pact with frying but dont expect any magic! Will go check....

Practisingparent · 18/08/2012 07:16

Oh. My.... There are 2 lines! one faint, but def where it ought to be! Am in complete shock!

Practisingparent · 18/08/2012 07:17

i cant kid myself, that thats an evap line, its a proper looking line jst fainter than the other one!

Practisingparent · 18/08/2012 07:21

Ok, now I can congratulate everyone I missed, river, dysgu, frying, and feel really happy for them!

By the way frying you let me down, we were meant to find out together! But very happy for you and the others, 4 in a row! Grin

Ok will have to get a CB digi today!

Practisingparent · 18/08/2012 07:23

Im clearly having my own little conversation, and you lot are still in bed!

fryingpantoface · 18/08/2012 07:56

Practising! Congratulations!!

Woo! So, we'll have the same due date? Oh my gosh!

I'm genuinely thrilled for you. Grin

I'm sorry I caved, but yey!

fryingpantoface · 18/08/2012 07:58

Boots have £2 off clear blue tests

Practisingparent · 18/08/2012 08:28

Yay, will get down there!

WingDefence · 18/08/2012 08:51

BLIMEY!!!! Practising that is wonderful news!!

I can't believe how lucky/blessed this thread has been these past couple of weeks in getting so many of us BFPs!

The EOD JSing method really does work!

You and Dysgu, come over to the grads thread ASAP!!

Grin Bear Grin

Practisingparent · 18/08/2012 11:36

OK, I POAS too, but it was a clear blue plus one, and line came up within a minute, so pretty sure now, still feel like I have to go out and get a digi one tho, just to graduate fully!

good luck the rest, your time will surely come!Wink

Grannyapple · 18/08/2012 11:40

Wow...this thread moves so quickly...& huge congrats on all the BFP's..& gives the rat of us hope Grin.

Right EPD for us this week from Thursday...DH won't know what's hit him Grin

Grannyapple · 18/08/2012 11:41

Grrr...EOD, that should say! Heat is obviously getting to me...

Hooya · 18/08/2012 11:52

Woohoo practising that's just brilliant - this thread is doing a lot to help beat my post-holiday blues with all these BFPs!!

notsoold · 18/08/2012 16:33

Loving the bfps.....

Dysgu · 18/08/2012 22:00

WOW - we have really started something with this EOD JSing!

Congratulations to Practising and Frying - you must be in that little pocket of "I can't quite believe it" that I am in!

I am phoning for a doc appointment on Monday - my doctor has been away on holiday but my clearblue digi said 2-3 weeks which is 4-5 weeks, I think! I still keep checking each time I go to the loo though as I keep thinking it hasn't really happened IFKWIM.

We had my family round last night for the fireworks - end of Cowes Week and we can see them from our garden overlooking the sea (with a lot of the town in between!) and DP and I were sitting round the table with my parents when everyone else had gone. I kept wondering whether to say anything but we haven't told anyone yet. (Although DP is in the pub with his best friend right now so not sure if it will slip out!)

Fingers crossed for more BFPs for everyone left.

Hooya · 19/08/2012 05:42

Hello all! Any more BFPs since the last time I logged in? Probably! Grin

So after getting my ERTD 5 days early, it stopped after 5 days, we got back from hols yesterday and resumed JSing today - and DP got a (TMI alert) nasty surprise afterwards... now ERTD seems to be back, what the hell is going on? If this cycle is anything to go by, I am going to spend 6 or 7 days every 23 days having ERTD or something like it. After 16 blissful years of perfectly timed ERTDs every 3 months, I am Angry and Confused.

Sorry to bring down the happy tone on here... hope everyone is having a lovely weekend!

swimmingnotdrowning · 19/08/2012 13:01

Congratulations practising!

And hooya - i guess it is a bit early to know how your cycle will be once it settles down (mine was whacky for a few months when I came off the pill years ago) and maybe you can look at it that shorter cycles means more opportunities (if it is a 3 week cycle then 15 weeks you'll have had 5 shots at it and people with 5 week cycles will only get 3) so there might be an upside??

33andTTC · 19/08/2012 19:00

Weird. Had first AF since coming off pill wed 8th. Just been to loo and seems AF is back again? Whats that all about?

33andTTC · 19/08/2012 19:00

Sorry ertd!

fryingpantoface · 19/08/2012 19:35

How odd 33! is it a proper ertd or could it be implantation?

I've never had implantation bleeding so I don't know how common it is

Hooya · 19/08/2012 23:18

Morning all!

swimming that is true, there could be an upside, if my cycle is long enough to actually ov and get things ready in there! Plus less waiting around to find out, I suppose!

33 I've just had something similar - first ERTD off pill was fine, second one was after only 23 days, and then more bleeding 2 days after it finished. I was a bit worried and very grumpy (after the pill, who wants ERTD half the time?) but I think people here are right, give it time and hopefully it will sort itself out. I am trying to ignore the concept of implantation as apparently only 25% of people get any symptoms of it at all, so don't want to get my hopes up!

notsoold · 19/08/2012 23:23

hooya morning???
Whereabouts are you???
People I am lurking and reading as even jsing is out of the window with the stents in place.
That upset me... but poor dh needs the treatment....

33andTTC · 20/08/2012 07:32

TMI for a monday morning but it was very thin a almost pink. Wore a tampon overnight in case. Will see soon. Not sure what is is. Dont know now even what cycle day i am on. Grrrr

ChristineDaae · 20/08/2012 08:28

Hi all and congrats on the latest BFPs.
I'm now up to 4 weeks off the pill, 11 weeks since the start of my last ERTD!! What the heck is going on?!??Angry
