Just Shagging - JSers roll up for fred 12

999 replies

Kittenkatzen · 01/11/2012 14:03

Oh, the other fred filled up all of a sudden! Oh well here's a new one....(horse feel free to replace if you want to be fred starter, just didn't want everyone in limbo!)

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 Brew 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 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 11 is [[http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/1553148-Just-Shagging-The-lazy-TTCers-heaven-this-is-Shaggers-Corner-Part-11 here]

Sorry folks- just got a bit overexcited with the possibility of POAS. My main problem Boy is that I have no idea when I ov and my cycles can be of varying lengths which is why I am not sure when to test, Confused but I'll work it out. I'm not going to test until DH comes home anyway so it'll be later this week now. Sorry if I hogged the fred. Thanks for the support. Smile

Here'smy hand Frog. Smile

frogchops · 12/11/2012 21:31

(Squeezes it very tightly) am getting cramps today so I think af mute be coming :-/.... I've also joined slimming world in a ridiculous attempt to think about something else!! Anyway.... Don't let go!! Lol

Bearface · 12/11/2012 21:43

I won't. Smile Am willing the witch away.

I joined the other one WW ages ago - I'm really rubbish at it, even though I exercise a fair bit. Must try harder.

Bronte41 · 12/11/2012 22:31

bear I lost 49 lbs in about 13 weeks before my wedding with one hour of exercise every day and 1200 net calories. I have since stuck to the diet but not exercised. I've gained 10 lbs in 4 months - exercise is clearly the key for me. So now I'm back on the exercise but only 30 mins daily. Need to lose what I gained before Xmas is here!

Bearface · 12/11/2012 22:36

Wow Bronte - you're amazing -well done on doing that. Total respect - that's hard to do. I go to the gym almost every day and I'm fairly fit. Did a duathlon the other week and done two 10k races since Sept. I just have no willpower although am trying to train myself.Thanks for the advice - I will see what I can do.

Bronte41 · 12/11/2012 23:26

Oh holy crap! You are way fitter than I could ever dream of! I don't run due to a very old knee injury (broken patella years ago) but I have a cross trainer. It's been perfect for me. I watch rubbish tv whilst on it and time flies by. I'm far too self conscious for a gym

Bearface · 12/11/2012 23:47

Oh no - I didn't mean that to be a big brag - really, I just about get round the races. I do it more for my chest because I'm asthmatic and it clears all the crap off. Sounds like what you're doing great Bronte but you shouldn't worry - there's tonnes of poseurs in gyms but also lots of normal people too. Only the younguns posture and look at each other, but they're not interested in anyone except each other. Anyway, your methid works so no need to change it. I just want to lose about a stone to a stone and a half because I'm small and it's noticeable on me. Might also increase my chances of TTC! Grin

Bearface · 12/11/2012 23:48

Gah - *method

Redshoes56 · 13/11/2012 02:14

Hello ladies, old and new! (Well old just sounds mean. How about existing?) Greetings from Arizona, where I will be for a few days for a conference. I just keep getting further and further away from your time zone Grin

boy men can be so childish, can't they? He'll get over it.
ding I agree with bear on the karma thing. There has to be karma; there just has to.

For those of you dying to pee on things, stay strong!

AndIfATenTonTruck · 13/11/2012 07:22

cd20 and I have nipples like bullets. That is all.

Kittenkatzen · 13/11/2012 07:39

Arf tenton that just made me lol on the train...got a couple of Hmm looks

Grin

Whoever's DH it was being an arse (stoopid iPhone app can't scroll back to check names soz!) I hope he got a grip and calmed down a bit. Bloody men!

Moooorning..... I just woke from about 4/5 really vivid dreams , I even dreamt I got a bfp!! Was gona get up and test (I know I know. Blush!) but I got up for a wee in the middle of the night. Was that my fmu?? What's the importance of fmu and am I too late today??

wavesandsneezes · 13/11/2012 09:37

Morning all - catching up after a few days in bed. Congrats granny fab news!

Hi frog - when is AF due? Might be worth holding off testing til tomorrow... I have no idea when fmu technically occurs. Everything makes me so Confused although I remember when I tested for DD (now 7), it was at lunchtime, so I think the fmu is only so important really early on.

I am well and truly lying on the train tracks with the JSing wagon speeding past me. Been signed off work for the whole week with bastard tracheitis. Cough from hell, fever and no energy at all Sad Me and DH tried to get it on Sunday, may have been Saturday, but everytime I coughed I kind of ejected him from my fanjo Blush! Hoping for lots of BFPs to cheer me up now

Bearface · 13/11/2012 10:32

Thanks and Brew to you Waves - hope you are feeling better soon. I know it sounds ridiculous but when I was ill with a terrible chest infection and I'd finished my antibiotics and they didn't work, I got some kyolic garlic in odourless capsule form and it really helped. Manuka honey (expensive though) is also meant to be great. I gave up milk and dairy for a few weeks too in order to stop producing so much mucus on my chest. I was so fed up of feeling ill (had been ill for about 7 weeks) that I went to a health food shop and asked if they had anything I could try and these things worked for me.
BTW - the same thing ejecting has happened to me before, both through coughing and sneezing. Sneezing was very funny . . . kinda spoilt the mood though. Grin

Hooya · 13/11/2012 14:04

Hello all!

Disappeared for a couple of days as my dad was visiting, and now no time to catch up! Huge congrats and a bfp happydance to granny and to any other bfps I missed! Welcome to bronte and badfurday and any other newbies I missed too happy shagging!

Big fat sweaty hairy bollocks to all of the following: ERTDs, mice, illness, skanky phone thieves, DH's being ridiculous etc etc.

I am now on CD41 and getting more and more worried about whether my mc has totally f**ked my cycle Sad

Still, loads and loads of shagging has been done Grin

Hooya · 13/11/2012 14:10

Just read back a bit more, livis so so sorry for your mc.

I didn't wait at all, doc said go for it and that the only reason they suggest waiting is it's easier to date the pregnancy like anyone gives a sh!t

frogchops · 13/11/2012 14:39

Ohhh. Cramps are getting worse today. Im sure it's a sign of af. :-( not due till Saturday but hurting none the less. I might test tomorrow and if its a bfn I'll be convinced I'm out I think. :-/
On another note, it's weigh in nite. I mite hve goodies afterwards. ;)

Bearface · 13/11/2012 17:13

Hang in there Frog . Go on Frog - if you've been good, then treat yourself to some goodies.

Good on you Hooya for all your shagging. . Do you think CD41 could mean BFP?

Hi Red - hope Arizona is nice and warm. It's cold and miserable here.

I've been good everyone and after my semi-meltdown yesterday I have not POAS and am feeling very in control. Hurrah! Really looking forward to DH coming home. Also, I have finished writing my short story that I started about a year ago. Very pleased with myself and just waiting for people to read it now. Yay!

Hope everyone is well. Smile

BoyMeetsWorld · 13/11/2012 17:26

Oooh where's your story being published Bear? Can we read it?

DH is finally speaking to me again. After ignoring me all night (didn't even say I Love You at bedtime) & yelling at me this morning until both me & DS were crying :( eejit. He says he's just scared of my ex (DS's father)'s relationship with me....but what that's got to do with me not realising he was outside to pick me up, I'm not sure!

Well done to all those refraining from POAS. Isn't it interesting that loads of us are due AF at same time - dyou reckon we've cyber-synced our cycles? Lol

Bearface · 13/11/2012 17:33

Oh Boy - it's hard to comment from the outside, so sorry if I write anything which sounds ignorant but it feels like he needs to sort himself out a bit and stop taking out his own insecurities on you. He's being really unfair. And making DS cry too? WTF? I don't know what advice to give you or if you're even looking for any, but maybe the other gals on here can help better than I can. I feel bad for you. Here - have some Thanks

Also, I thought that about cyber-syncing too. I reckon you're right. Grin

Bearface · 13/11/2012 17:44

Oh yes - forgot. My story is on my blog. I'd be thrilled if you read it Boy! (and anyone else who wants to) I'm just writing for myself at the mo and seeing what sort of response it gets. It's a ghost story and I've published it in sections because I was still writing it when I published the first parts. I'm not sure if I can put the link on here. Do you think it's okay?

AWomanCalledHorse · 13/11/2012 17:53

Bear, it's fine to put a link here, but not if you don't want someone in RL knowing your MN name (and that you're ttc), probably better to send link via PM (I wouldn't mind a read of it either, I'm always writing something & would be happy to give feedback).

Boy, glad DH is speaking to you again...although not so good that he's paranoid about your relationship with ex, just reassure him all the reasons he's your DH & your ex is an ex.
I'm really close with my most recent ex (no kids), it's a bit weird to explain it to people but DH knows he can trust me/ex.

I've lost weight!! I'm now a pound less than I was when I got pregnant with DS, hurrah! Good luck at the weigh in frog, although weds is still quite early to test if you're not due until sat...good luck!!

hooya, hope your cycle is back to normal soon & you're having fab sex.

Bearface · 13/11/2012 17:53

Boy - I sent you the link. Bit scaredy about putting it on here just in case I'm breaking rules or something.

frogchops · 13/11/2012 17:53

Oh bear, I'd love to read it, u could always put the link and if you're not allowed I'm sure someone will jump on it! Hadn't noticed about everyone's af due at the same time.... I'm due 17th.... Everyone else similar?
Thanks for the hand squeeze too bear, I'm out at fat club in a mo so this might take my mind off googling test results at 10dpo things. As I've said earlier somewhere tho I think af is on the way by the feel of these pains :-/

frogchops · 13/11/2012 17:55

does a little impatient sigh at being told by both bear AND horse not to test so early!!
