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

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.

Hello all Smile

So nice to see so many newbies Grin

And woohoo looks like some bfp's are coming this way, fab news.

7 days late for me!! Nothing else really to say. Grin

IceNoSlice · 25/06/2013 04:30

Grin Grin Grin
Minion · 25/06/2013 06:38

ice
Wooohooooo congratulations! Awesome news... (I've been around quite a few Americans lately and this is definitely an awesome moment)!
Now, enquiring minds want to know... What symptoms you had, tell us, tell us, TELL US... So we can devour it all and point out fake symptoms of our own..
No really, a hearty congrats to you.

Writerwannabe83 · 25/06/2013 07:39

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! x x

frogchops · 25/06/2013 07:51

Congrats ice.... Get yourself over to try grads thread, there's baby's popping out left right and centre over there so they need more grads!! Wink
U can always, like me, never bugger off lurk here. (She says, 28 weeks later Blush)

EssieSaysRelax · 25/06/2013 07:53

Woohoo ice! Brilliant news!

cookie it's sounding promising for you too!

I am 3-5 days late (depending on how you calculate my average!) but another bfn this morning.

Rockchick1984 · 25/06/2013 07:57

Congratulations Ice!!! We can graduate together (although I'm a bit scared to for a while yet) Grin Thanks Grin Thanks Grin

Welcome to the newbies! MrsG I tried for about 5 months for DC2, MMC at 12 week scan in April then BFP a few days ago so hopefully it'll be quicker this time for you as well. So sorry you've been through it.

Cookie when are you testing again? Do u have any symptoms to spot?

My BFP is getting stronger so plucked up the courage to call the community midwife and give her my details - wouldn't normally bother this early but because of last time they will offer me early scans and I didn't want to be stuck in a paperwork queue!

Rockchick1984 · 25/06/2013 07:58

X-post Essie fingers and toes crossed! Will you test again tomorrow?

IceNoSlice · 25/06/2013 07:59

Thanks! Grin

I'll check out the grads thread. Just had a go on the NHS due date calculator and it says late Feb 14... I looked on the antenatal board for Feb and there's a group with 853 Shock messages. No way can I get up to speed with that Sad.

Still a bit shocked as no symptoms apart from missed AF. Except maybe feeling cold a lot yesterday - I remember I was very susceptible to temperature changes last time round.

Good luck everyone!

Rockchick1984 · 25/06/2013 08:09

Ice when was your last ERTD? I've calculated my EDD as early March Confused

EssieSaysRelax · 25/06/2013 08:20

Hi rock good to see you! I'll probably try to wait til fri or sat to test again if no ertd. Boobs still hurt, have done for a week now and still got ewcm which started yesterday, so not sure what going on! A wee bit weird!

Yay for the bfps though! You give me hope! Fx cookie!

Xx

DulcetMoans · 25/06/2013 08:48

Yay ice! Amazing news! Did you do anything different this cycle to get the BFP?? So pleased there is a BFP at last too!!

More peering on sticks please, I want more good news!

IceNoSlice · 25/06/2013 09:40

Rock - 22 may?

Dulcet - no just lots of DTD Wink

EssieSaysRelax · 25/06/2013 10:25

This week I will mostly be wearing tampax :-(
Better luck to everyone else xx

frogchops · 25/06/2013 10:25

Cannot actually believe your Edd predictions of feb/march. Where has this time gone? I honestly thought, ah rock and ice won't be far behind Shock but I'll have a 6 month old by then. Scared beyond belief!

Rockchick1984 · 25/06/2013 10:46

Eeek Frog your little one could be crawling by the time me and Ice have ours!!!

Oh Essie I'm sorry Thanks was so hopeful it was your month Sad

Ah, ok Ice mine was 28th May so that explains the gap! Went to check out the March 2014 thread and there's someone due end of feb on there, so maybe come into that one if you prefer?

Minion · 25/06/2013 12:50

Afternoon viroids.
My gawd I'm exhausted. I've woken up, gone straight back to sleep and had an afternoon nanny nap already, now Ive had my lunch and can honestly say there's nothing I want to do more than crawl back under the covers.
Now I usually have a afternoon nap on days off but this is something else. The most part of me says it's just pmt mixed with jet lag but there's that niggling 'ive never been this tired' doubt.
And the usual cramps and sore boobs I get a week after OV, started 4 days after, and not as painful as usual. Plus husband had a right good gawk at me norks yesterday and proclaimed 'they're huge love'.
Lovely. And they're a bit veiny....
No. Must stop symptom spotting! Arghhhh

Minion · 25/06/2013 13:42

Oh and to top it off.
(maybe TMI) but I've just been to the loo and shed loads of lotion like cm... I've never even noticed this stuff before other than in pants.
What do you all think? Eeekkk

Rockchick1984 · 25/06/2013 13:46

Lotion like CM can be a pregnancy symptom..... When are you due ERTD???

Minion · 25/06/2013 13:58

ERTD due around a weeks time. I'll drive myself cuckoo at this rate.

Mehrida · 25/06/2013 14:48

Congrats Ice, good to see there's hope for us all!

Well, my ERTD has just departed so I guess it's time for us to start JSing. It took over 2 years and a dose of Clomid last time so I'm not getting my hopes up while trying to stay positive.

If anyone has any tips on how to do that they'd be greatly appreciated!

cookielove · 25/06/2013 17:23

Hello all Smile

Well congratulations ice so happy for you!!

Erm well I don't think I am pregnant as I this has happened twice before and ended up with af. So not holding out much hope. Also tested this morning and it was a bfn.

Although I did dream I was pregnant and was suffering with morning sickness then woke up feeling sick which stayed with me all morning Confused

cookielove · 25/06/2013 17:34

Sorry just wanna try something Grin

♥ ♡ ☆ ★

Also merhida wine and chocolate will help Grin

Minion · 25/06/2013 17:45

cookie
I'm sending you positive vibes, but I think I'm the same as you. This morning the niggling doubt was there but through the day my sore boobs have gone down so prob just pmt, looking back on previous months my boobs went normal after 4 days and it's happened this month.
Booo

DulcetMoans · 25/06/2013 17:55

No idea what those things were there cookie but sending you positive vibes too! And everyone else of course!

Who is next to test??

Producing more CM here than I did through the rest of my cycle and ERTD due tomorrow so god knows what is going on! Did contraband, just to be sure you know, and not ov so... Who knows!
