Out with the OPKs, ban the body temping; here's Just Shagging thread 14!

Ladies, Fred title says it all; we are the ones who shag as much as our men can cope with in order to get upduffed without the stress of scientific whatnots!

Fred rules (copied from previous Fred)

  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 and 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. This is from the first JS thread when someone tried to type 'ladies' and it autocorrected to 'Viroids' - so there you go!

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). Or PIATLH (Tea light holder) PIAWG (Wine glass) or anything else you care to pee in!

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.

Contraband = Of COURSE none of us EVER partake of any silly opk's or temp charting. They are Contraband

Happy shagging shaggers

Good luck fish

I've only done a couple of POASs but Gonna resist the urge for a while.. I don't think it's doing me much good stressing!

LOL about the squirrel and it's nuts :-o Have a feeling I may be looking that up for the bottom draw!

Yeah I know the feeling being so tired after work. DH and I are like passing ships in the night sometimes so gotta grab every moment- phew.. Blush

CoraBear · 17/02/2013 22:08

I feel your pain about ships that pass in the night, DP is away a lot with work and it makes the baby making difficult when I'm home alone. I've convinced myself I'm having pregnancy symptoms (I'm not pregnant and I'm not wasting my clearblue digital on a wild goose chase). I think we need reusable placebo sticks we can pee on over and over again that say "Better luck next time" or "Step away from the sticks lady". A new MN business venture?

Cora like a magic 8 ball???? Grin

Evenin' all! Been busy like a bee the last few days. Congrats to all the newly BFP'd ladies, and hoping everyone has had capes on/nuts in cheeks/managed to step away from peeing on anything.

Managed to DTD on 2 days before, ov day and last night (ov +1), so fx for me. Now to lure Mr Humpty into bed for another go. x

CoraBear · 17/02/2013 23:13

Exactly! A polite yet non-commital way to appease the peeing on sticks instincts that we have post ovulation. Not as big as a magic 8 ball though - think of the mess Grin

Zumbasmyfave · 18/02/2013 06:48

cora, rock.. I think it's one for the Dragons den!

Humpty see thread about 1 liners to get ur dp to dtd :-D oh the hilarity

AndieDisestablishment · 18/02/2013 08:25

Welcome back Red glad to see your cape's back on.
Hi Zumba waves My DP works contracts so is either at home allllll the time or away/working all week. So it's either loads of JSing or complete drought. I've got an interview/assessment tomorrow for a job involving shifts so I'm hoping I get my BFP this month or I'll never get pupped up.l

fish88 · 18/02/2013 10:22

BFN this morning Sad, although no ERTD or cramping yet so will test again in a few days if no sign. This was my first negative test so feeling a bit glum.

Zumbasmyfave · 18/02/2013 19:25

Aaaw sorry fish better luck next time. Keep on truckin' (or something like that!)

Hi Andie! Good luck for the interview! I'm sure you'll be able to get some JSing in in the mean time!

cookielove · 18/02/2013 22:14

HumptyDumptyBumpty · 19/02/2013 13:19

Aw, fish and cookie bad luck lovelies. Good luck Andie for your interview/assessment!

fish88 · 19/02/2013 13:26

Sorry for the wallowing yesterday, forgot to say good luck Andie Smile

frogchops · 19/02/2013 13:31

Cookie and fish, you're not out yet!! Fx!

AndieDisestablishment · 19/02/2013 15:02

Sorry for the BFNs Cookie and Fish any signs of ERTD? Cling to hope it was a duff test.lol

Thanks for the luck ladies, I think it went well, find out tomorrow if I'm through to the next stage.

How is everyone?

cookielove · 19/02/2013 16:03

Hello all. Well I am off work which is shocking for me as I am never off, well for sickness anyway Smile

I didn't test today, but no ertd. I will hold out to fri to test again if no ertd appears.

Andie how'd it go?

fish88 · 19/02/2013 17:28

No sign of ERTD, will test again tomorrow as that will be DPO15. Hormones should be showing up by then if upduffed surely?

Keeping FX for you Andie

Hope you feel better soon Cookie Thanks

cookielove · 19/02/2013 18:20

fish fingers crossed for you!!

I've mainly been feeling exhausted with a incredibly sore throat but i am feeling much better today, it helps when i don't do much e.g lying on the sofa watching telly.

fish88 · 19/02/2013 18:28

Haha, I read that as "fish fingers" crossed at first. Glad you're starting to feel better.

fish88 · 20/02/2013 08:26

Another BFN for me this morning so I am going to declare myself out for the month. Just waiting for ERTD to start so we can get on with the next cycle.

cookielove · 20/02/2013 10:22

Fish Sad

Zumbasmyfave · 20/02/2013 11:19

sorry fish :-(

notsoold · 20/02/2013 12:43

Sorry fish!

Cookie hope you are feeling better!

Hi everybody:)

cookielove · 20/02/2013 13:12

I'm stuck at home bored out of mind Confused

I think the problem with this kind of illness (not that i know whats wrong with me) is that over all i don't feel sick just getting up and moving makes me feel exhausted, so really i am just sitting on my arse trying to build up my energy, i've been all over the internet watched so many films, and almost completely wiped out my pre recorded stuff on sky.

Also being at home means i am near my ic's, work usually distracts me from testing.

The only good thing is that i have lost 6lb's Grin, but now my appetite is back i can't see that lasting Sad

My pinterest board is looking nice and full though, and i've thought of lots of things to do when i am better and if i every do get my BFP.

Have i said yet i am bored!!

fish88 · 20/02/2013 14:22

Hi Cookie, I had a similar illness not long ago, was fine when I was sat/lying down but felt dizzy and nauseous every time I moved. Never found out what it was but felt better after a week. Wondered if it was a mild flu?

Had an odd thing happen this morning and wondered if anyone had any advice...

POAS this morning and got BFN, went back to bed for a bit. When I went up for a shower I realised test was still on bathroom cabinet and went to throw it out. Noticed this time that there was a VERY faint second pink line. This was a couple of hours after I first tested. Do all tests eventually show a positive result if left long enough? I know I'm probably clutching at straws but no sign of ERTD yet (2 days late so far). Anyone experienced anything similar?
