We laugh in the face of OPKS and stomp on our thermometers! Don your customised shag capes, ladies; it's Just Shagging Thread 15

[Bearface]

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 OPKs or temp charting. They are Contraband.

Happy shagging shaggers!

oh and bear j-lo and Beyonce seem to get by just fine with massive arses...I have one too and im sure u and I will be just fine too!

POAS today BFN. Boo. just tried the 1st one of my amazon pee sticks. so, am fat and feel shite because am eating shit and am unhealthy. not because pg. dammit.

Sorry choc. whereabouts are you in your cycle though? Sorry if you've said already- I can't scroll back.

Thanks lil. I don't think it's that big either actually but it's just rude and humiliating nonetheless.

I managed to cycle 15km again today. Yay me! why am I not getting thinner?

Aww, that sucks Choc
And I'm wishing bad vibes to all the meanies who have been casting aspersions on the waistlines/bums of the Fred girls! How rude!!

Morning ladies - apologies in advance for mememe post! I think I have got the faintest tiniest hint of a line on a test.... Not due ERTD til Tue so more than likely I'm imagining it, can't even get it to show on a photo and not convinced my eyes aren't playing tricks, but I will test again in a few days and see what happens so please keep fingers, toes, everything (except legs) crossed for me!

Oh yay Rock keeping everything crossed for you, this is great news!
We need another bfp around here, even if it is a teensy faint one at this stage. Yay :D Keep us posted!

Think the bully manager thing is sorted, I went to my manager and complained about him and the MD got involved. Bit embarassing, but I'm glad it was taken seriously cos I was worried about the lad being bullied. Dulcet hope you are ok.

to all the 'fat arse' and 'you've put on weight' comments. Not on. People can be so insensitive.

2 days to ERTD for me. Not feeling very hopeful really. I guess after 10 days of daily shagging on hols at ov time I'll be pretty gutted if we didn't pull it off cos there won't be another opportunity like that for a loooong time! Anyway, it's not over til ERTD sings! (repeat all day until I actually believe it!)

realistically I'm new to this charting cycle stuff, but ERTD due roughly towards end of month, next week after wed/thurs ; how early can the early testers pick up HCG? was more testing the sticks were OK as they were v cheap

yes fingers crossed Rock oooooooh!

Choc, I think it varies a lot in how early the testers, cheap or otherwise, can pick up a bfp, some people get it days before ERTD due, and some not til days after. I try and hang on til ERTD due just so I don't have to see bfn's and not know if they are real or not, but I sometimes cave like this month, and last month, and the month before .

Ooooh, fingers crossed Rock
Choc Sensitivity varies from test to test and hormone levels vary from woman to woman.

so according to the science there is no chance of getting pg late on?

Depends on your literal (luteal) phase and your cycle. If your ertd due end of next week, in theory you could be up duff now but getting false negative tests. Do you use contraband?

Good luck Rock!

Oooo Rocky! I really hope it's positive for you. Squeeeeee!

Ok, I'm super confused. This month we just dtd a bunch of times throughout but because I wasn't really paying attention I didn't know when I ovulated.
I thought perhaps I was ovulating late as I started getting cramps around cd 18 and that's what first alerted me to the fact that we may have missed the window.

Anywho, fast forward to yesterday and after dtd last night, I noticed the "afters" were tinged with blood and there was some on the sheets. It can't have been from my sensitive cervix because I'd definitely know if it had been knocked enough to bleed (and the bleed wouldn't come for a day or so after) so I'm a little puzzled. Implantation bleeding perhaps? Also had been having mild cramps the last few days which have largely disappeared except feel a low dull cramp on the rh side every now and then.

I don't recall any of this from DS1, the only reason I knew I was there was something up was because I couldn't drink the second glass of wine because it tasted funny (he was a little accidental) the night before I was due on. I don't recall being tired, sore boobs, cm, cramping or anything like that though. So now of course, I'm drinking copious amounts of wine to see if it tastes funny. Much better test than peeing on a stick right?

I'm due on on Monday, not going to poas before then. But if I'm not pregnant, I find it strange that I've all of a sudden started spotting when I've never spotted before in my life. Most weird.

Good luck Rocky, keeping all crossed for you!

Essie how are you feeling with AF being 2 days away?

Bear you're making me feel very guilty with all the cycling you're doing, bloody well done! I really need to get off my arse and start running again.

Hello all

Waves manically at the newbies!!

How is everyone, stepped off mumsnet for a little bit there.

Crap about the bullying at work makes me and for you!!

Rock a line whoop whoop. Hope that it sticks

I was due on on Monday, and still haven't come on. I broke and tested this morning a BFN. But still no ERTD. Any who what will be will be.

Stroke the signs look good!!

no contraband. feel like HMRC saying that

wow cookielove are you usually regular?

Choc i was regular mostly 23-28 cycles. And then a couple months back i had two extra long cycles one at 38 and the other at 40, of course i thought we'd cracked it but no but the last 3 cycles have been pretty regular. Who knows really

Good luck Cookie! It's sounding good. Same for you Stroke. It ain't over til it's over!

Thanks Bear that what my theory is

oooh faint and potential bfps. a good day on the js thread id say. fingers crossed for more lines and darker lines! i think contraband may come out next month if no bfp just so I can poas and see 2 lines!

why is there more hcg in morning wee? surely evening wee if you hold it all afternoon would be the same?

choc fmu is best for hpt cos u haven't drunk or oee'd all night so hgc concentration will be higher. Dr goofle suggests u can hold off going for a wee for 4 hours then test as long as you don't drink excessive amounts that will dilute the sample

interesting. I like this Dr Goofle ;-)

Dr Goofle is very brainy. I bet he even wears a bowtie.

So, I just had to sling away a glass of wine cos it tasted of manure. It could be and is more likely to be cos it was languishing in the fridge all week because I was trying to abstain. Then I log in here and stroke says pooey wine is a symptom! I know being 2 days from ertd I shouldn't be drinking but I'm not feeling very hopeful. Got ertd-y twinges this evening and about forty thousand spots on my face. :(

bear your exercising is very impressive. You are doing my share!
