Just Shagging - The lazy TTCers heaven, this is Shaggers Corner, Part 11

Kittenkatzen · 31/08/2012 11:32

(sorry I know that's awful but seriously, can you think of anything else that rhymes with "eleven"?!)

Ladies, leave your OPKs at the door, and settle in for part 11 of JSing!

Fred rules;

  1. Thou shalt shag as much as humanly possible in order to get upduffed.
  2. Thou shalt not partake of OPKs, temping, or charting.
  3. Thou shalt keep symptom spotting to a minimum.
  4. Thou shalt share Wine and [tea] with your fredmates where needed.

JSing lingo;

ERTD = Evil Red Tide of Dooooooommmmmmm. Or AF to most others.
Pant snot = Egg white cervical mucus.
Doing a kitten = Getting upduffed soon after joining (warning: may induce Envy in other posters).
Viroid = This is you, dear poster. The reason for this is a closely guarded secret, known only to....er....well, nobody as far as we can tell!
POAS = Pee On A Stick (of the pregnancy detecting kind, not from a tree). Also known as PIAR (Pee In A Ramekin - cos we're posh birds innit).
Shagging like something = JSing like a teenage nymphomaniac.
Giving a hooya = Giving a much needed slap to a fellow poster in danger of slipping into ttc obsession.

The link to Part 10 is here.

The link to the latest grads thread is here.

So don those shag capes, we have standards to maintain - Part 10 saw an amazing 9 BFPs, including one set of twins! So - what are you still doing here? GET SHAGGING!!

:o

countrybumpkin, welcome & yay for your first anniversary!
Even if DH does get it on the first shot (ooh, if he does he'll strut about talking about his super sperm), you can have lots of lovely pre baby sex during pregnancy (until you're the size of a house & cba) Grin

retro, Moet? Hark at your posh phone!
Hope you get a BFP soon!

Granny, we've got a 2 bed (and no chance of moving in the next 5 years, negative equity yay(!), so we'd have the smaller one in our room for longer (hoping it doesn't wake DS).

Hooya, hope you don't have a wtf cycle (seen plenty of MNers who mc & then get upduffed within a few months).

Still cramping, but less so...have spent the day with a pad on just incase. I guess it's positive that DS's nappy this morning was so stinky I almost threw up on him right?
Thanks for all the positive vibes....wish I didn't test so early now!
Googled & it looks like 16dpo is around the time a line will go proper dark, am on 10dpo (probably) atm so will know within a week.

Hooya · 14/10/2012 14:54

Welcome country and happy shagging!

Horse very exciting! Cramping not necessarily bad, fx it's just things arranging themselves in there!

Lol about strutting husband - the first thing my DP said when I got my BFP was "my sperm works!!" then he did a little happy dance! I didn't realise what a big deal it was to him to know that his swimmers work Grin

Can't believe it's Sunday night already Sad at least it is where I am! Still, I might ov next week if my womb isn't broken as I secretly fear so there is plenty to look forward to!

Grannyapple · 15/10/2012 09:26

Morning ladies...did everyone have a lovely w/e?

horse any news (in a quiet way)?
Congrats again nic/MrsBri

No real news here...have family down visiting so dh & I are on the sofabed in ds's room..my god he's a noisy sleeper (ds, that is)..& he talks in his sleep! Think I'm going to be like a zombie come Thursday!

ERTD due this week...convinced its coming so looking like we'll be on to cycle 4 in the next few days...

MrsBri · 15/10/2012 10:50

Thank you, granny :-) We are just on the way to the airport to fly off to Iceland. So excited!!

Fx to everyone while I'm away.

Kittenkatzen · 15/10/2012 11:46

Morning all...welcome country fx for a first month bfp for you!

horse any news or are you holding out for a few days?

Well I'm out for this month, ertd arrived this morning Sad my cycles seem to be getting shorter and shorter - just 24 days this month. I've just broken thread rules and caved in and ordered some opks don't kick me off pleeeeease! I just want to try and find out if there might be a problem, not getting obsesses honest!

AWomanCalledHorse · 15/10/2012 11:52

Oooh MrsBri, have a lovely honeymoon! Hope you had a wonderful day!!

Kitten, sorry for ERTD Wine

I had a darker line this morning, so feeling more positive (pardon the pun), but will stick around here until I get a proper dark line...after which I'll stalk lurk.

Granny, fingers crossed ertd doesn't show up for you! My DS laughs in his sleep which is quite creepy!

MrsBri · 15/10/2012 12:40

I like lurking! :-)

Fx for a sticky bean, Woman.

Saturday was awesome. Utterly perfect!

notsoold · 15/10/2012 23:25

Excelent news Horse.... fingers crossed for you xxxx
Hi everybody....hope you are jsing away tonight....
Dh is getting physically tired of jsing eod...what to do? Sometimes I feel bad for him specially if he is looking at the pillow with love, and I am tired as well...( we old people... falling sleep during sex soon)

Hooya · 15/10/2012 23:57

Woop woop congrats MrsBri glad the day was perfect!

Horse very exciting!

Kitten bollocks to ERTD! I had one 28 day then one 23 day cycle off the pill, and I was worried about the short cycle but read lots of reassuring things, then got duffed!

Notso it's difficult isn't it - have you tried variety? Different times of day / rooms in the house / underwear etc? Or some help from the internet if you like or don't mind that sort of thing Wink

Well we're 5 in 5 in the hooya household my ladyparts are starting to hurt a bit I have a vision of the sperm getting up there and going "aw man, everyone else showed up too!" Grin clearly there is nothing so focused as a woman post mc who wants upduffed! ohgood and others who have mc'd, did you get that too or were you more sensible? I am worried my hormones are still a bit mental!

Grannyapple · 16/10/2012 07:26

Morning ladies..

Ooh encouraging sign horse....fx for you!

I'm out this month as I suspected....on the plus side, looks like my cycle is back to normal & I'm off work a couple of days during fertile time Wink

Kittenkatzen · 16/10/2012 07:27

That is good news horse my fingers are tightly crossed for you, I really hope it sticks!

Thanks hooya that's reassuring to hear! I'm not going to worry just yet, will just have to make sure we're JSing much earlier in the cycle than we have been. Excellent work on 5 for 5, I'm jealous why am I always horny on ertd?!

notso my ex did actually fall asleep mid JS once....that was an ego boost - not! Shock I agree with hooyas suggestion if a little web surfing to piqué both of your interests again if the novelty is wearing off Grin

Cheers kitten

V v tired today...ds woke up at 5 (yawn!)...thinking we're heading to London zoo today...wonder how long we'll all last given how early we've all been up Hmm

Rockchick1984 · 16/10/2012 09:17

Notso apparently first thing in the morning is meant to be the best time for JSing (hormones etc according to Dr Google) so maybe set your alarm a bit earlier? I'm often too tired by bedtime, so TMI alert we have taken to DTD on the sofa while tea cooks if DS is asleep Grin

AWomanCalledHorse · 16/10/2012 09:44

notso, is there a position that gets him off quicker...or could you fluff him almost to the point of no return before jumping him?

Hooya, if you're walking like John Wayne it's time to slow it down!! Hope all this JS gets you a sticky BFP.

Granny, boo! for ertd, but great that you're off work during fertile time. Looking at my dates, it would've been on that mini break that we conceived, feel like I should thank kitten for the recommendation!
My DS woke up at 5 too. I don't think they want younger siblings!!

I've order some of those digital tests from Amazon (£9 for 2, it's £13 elsewhere) so in 3-4 working days I should know exactly where I stand.

wavesandsmiles · 16/10/2012 09:46

Completely understand the too tired thing. Moving house has completely taken it out of DH and me. As an attempt to get back on the case, we synchronised our lunch breaks and shot home at lunchtime yesterday for some middle of the day JSing! Good thing too, I was asleep by 9 Blush

I am once again quite convinced that the witch is on her way to get me. 7 days late, but no pg symptoms and the ICs are still giving BFNs. Guess my cycle is a bit all over the place with just last month having the mirena out, and the stress of moving. Ah well, plenty of Wine and soft cheese for me for as long as I can Grin

OhGood · 16/10/2012 10:07

waves brilliant move on the old lunchbreak JS there, you do make me Grin

Sorry for the ertd granny and kitten . I am really not convinced that this whole bloody reproduction thing has been properly designed. It's so random. A child could design it better. Why not simply order from tinternet as required, then keep bean in a kangaroo-style pouch, which can be carried by either/both DP, and then when timer goes simply produce new cuddly baby in pain-free way? MN should start a campaign.

notsoold · 16/10/2012 11:46

Well variety and internet is not a problem. Privacy is....gosh it was so hard when dc were little but nothing beats a teenager. If we make any noise during the night he will wake and say" I can hear you, you know" or knock at the door and ask for us to go downstairs and have some food.
Dh gets up at 6.30am for work ( waaay too early for me) so jsing during weekends when ds is sleeping (or in comatose as we call it) is the way..
But defo dh is tired and ( gulp) so am I!!! Not young rabbits no more lol
Maybe if I am too old to stay Awake or to pursue sex I am too old to have another child.:( Or maybe I am a lazy lazy woman.
Gg laughing at the woman at the supermarket.
We have to let the dog out if we dtd in the sofa because she sits and there and watches us ...with distaste written all over her canine face...

wavesandsmiles · 16/10/2012 12:42

notso pre-move, we resorted to the garden shed to get some privacy from the DCs (7, 8, 8, 10). Oh, and the loft. It was REALLY hard to get ourselves up there, pull up the ladder and then shut the door (to be fair, it was quite a snazzy folding loft ladder) for a very quick quickie!

The dog can be pretty off putting for us too - we have just started crate-training her. She started looking on with a rather "intent" look, rather than distaste the only time we attempted it in the same room as her. I definitely do NOT wanting to be the object of canine fantasies.

OhGood - sign me up for your campaign to improve the reproduction process. Sounds far better (and would mean that JSing could be just for fun!)

swimmingnotdrowning · 16/10/2012 13:56

Hello. I'm back from holiday and what a lot to catch up on!

Hello to boy, bear and retro.

And smiling congratulations to horse and nic(twice over in your case!).

MrsBri · 16/10/2012 15:19

Thank you swimming :-)

AWomanCalledHorse · 16/10/2012 15:47

notso. You're a lazy woman, deffo not too old to have another one. Is DS happy to walk the dog whilst you too JS?

Grin Glad I'm not the only one who can't JS infront of pets!

OhGood, I like the old fashioned Stork delivery method, can't see why they had to change that.
The opening scene of Dumbo where storks are delivering babies to all the animals & Mrs.Dumbo is left out has me crying like a baby , and the part when she's rocking him to sleep . Now I'm in bits, cheers Disney AND I want a baby elephant.

waves, hope it's a late bfp not ertd!!

Have a Dr appointment for monday, so hopefully I'll have a proper bold bfp by then, if not I have some sticks GP will love looking at.

AndieMatrix · 16/10/2012 16:28

Horse You've just made me snort with laughter!

Everybody seems rather bright and breezy this week despite the ERTDs and threat of them!

I've got lots of EWCM today and DP is a hundred miles away til Friday. Just typical!

Anyone up to anything fun this week?

Redshoes56 · 16/10/2012 16:39

Hi ladies! Geez, avoid the Internet for just a few days and it is impossible to catch up. horse fingers crossed - so exciting! kitten I fell prey to opks for the same reason -- short cycles. Good news is, mine have been creeping back up a few days each month and are now at a solid 28 days. Lazy eggs still coming to the party a bit too late but doc will hear all about it when I see her next week Smile

hooya we are in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. We rented a house right on the beach and I can hear and smell the ocean as I type. Just lovely. Vacation JSing is a key component.

I will catch up with all properly soon. Keep up the positive news here!

BoyMeetsWorld · 16/10/2012 18:41

Lol love the fact everyone is now chatting about DTD In front of Ddog :p ours is a particularly slobbery breed so looking on is accompanied by rather lascivious appearing drooling...not horny-making.

Had an ultrasound and (TMI alert) TVultrasound today for stomach pains (not pregnancy related). Was sort of praying MrSonographer might be all "oh what have we here, you appear to be upduffed" (in those exact words Grin) but sadly none of the kind. DrGoogle informs me 2 weeks since JS began is far too early to tell so must just keep shagging & hoping
