Put on your capes and rub the Unicorn belly aka "my dear, please pour baby gravy on my egg!" - JUST SHAGGING PART 18!

[ZingWantsCake]

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 envy 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.

The link to Part 17 is here

Happy shagging shaggers!

no grad thread link sorry, can someone else add this please?

Ill take your place in the pity pool pizza cos I feeling pretty damn sorry for myself. ERTD arrived. Again. 1 day late so did a pg test too so that's wasted. Even got excited cos I only had a sainsburys digi so did that an said not pregnant but there were two lines when I ejected it. Turns out that's normal though.

I'm just so angry! Why won't it happen?! What are we doing wrong?! I normally don't react so badly, after this long I expect it, but today I am mad. Plus I have a headache which is probably related. Now need to get clinic appointment! screams

Totally selfish post I know but where else can I go?!

Giving you ladies a hug - sorry you're all having a hard time.

I ended up crying and arguing with DP the other day about this pregnancy stuff and now he knows exactly what I'm doing

Theres another pregnant lady in the office and one on the low carb thread. Its just not me :(

hi all, I haven't been around for a while. It was all getting me down too much along with trying to carry on with life/study/work etc. I feel a lot happier when we're not trying but that's not going to get us very far...so waiting for ERTD this month then back to JSing.

Really sorry for everyone who is still waiting and finding it hard. It's so hard when so many people seem to get there so easily and the months slip by...I wish I had some answers but I hope when we all have our BFPs and then babies all the sadness and worry will be seem like a bad dream.

have lovely weekends, x

Coming to the end of our week off, been Jsing despite massive temptation to OPK . Actually had to dtd less than we wanted so as not to have sperm dust each time! A week of no work def boosts the libido

Think ovulation is due around tomorrow.... Currently feeling more casual this month so hopefully if ERTD comes it won't be too crushing. Fingers crossed it doesn't come at all!

Sounds like everyone is still having a bit of a rough time

Hope the sperm meets egg fifi

I've name changed as if you knew me in RL and read my threads recently I've really outed myself and I know some friends are mumsnetters.

(it's pizzaQ shhh)

Feeling sorry for myself tonight and no wine in the house so drinking DPs last beer mwahaha!

thinking about this baby we lost and how much I wish I could have her back made me realize again that although I can't have her back I still can't say "we are done".

she can't be here, but someone else possibly could.
I can not just give. However this is possibly the last time we are trying.

I'm 40 next August and have it in my head that unless I have another baby by then it is not meant to be.
which is fine. I want to have another baby, but I can't keep trying forever.

so here is to all of you, let's hope this is the month of productivity!

I can not just give up*

I am so sorry that lots of you are waiting and waiting for that first ecstatic moments when you can finally shake your heads with disbelief and utter "I can't believe I'm pregnant"

I really do wish from the bottom of my heart that it will happen to each and every one of you asap.
I know you wish it more.

and waggaQ you are not a cow for feeling the way you do!

I am one of those who pops one out every other year (not rubbing it in!!!), so I can not imagine how hard it must be to watch EVERYONE and their dog get pg and give birth, several times, while you are biding your time, biting your tongue and want to scream "when is it going to be my turn?"

I understand that it is stressful and heart wrenching.
And your feelings are totally valid. I'd be feeling like that.

I know it doesn't work that way, but honest to God I'd give up longing for another baby if it meant that any of you could be pg tomorrow.
I swear I would.

(I now actually feel guilty for wanting more. like I'm greedy when I already have so much )

My heart aches for your pain and all who are on this thread, waiting and struggling and I wish I could do something.

Aww zing you are just too lovely . I hope you get another beautiful baby, it doesn't matter how many you have already.

Just entering my fertile window and last night dp wanted to erm finish somewhere else....what a flippin waste of good sperms. Didn't want to ruin the moment by mentioning baby making.

Ladies!! I have been MIA for a month, hope everyone is ok my phone won't let me read all the way back, last time I posted I said we were giving up for abit...well sod really does strike we got a BFP last Sunday! Completely shocked as has taken a week to sink in

Curly

that is fantastic news! Congratulations!

Thanks mr curly is over the moon despite him being a prick previously about making babies!

curly that's fantastic news! you give me hope that my new found "its not happening so whats the point worrying about it" attitude might work!

zing u are such a wonderful person. And your children are so lucky to have such a lovely mum. fx u get Ur bfp soon!

hi to everyone else. been very quiet here lately. hope everyone is OK.

curly
What lovely news on this grey drizzly monday morning. A hearty congratulations to you and mr curly.
Looks like te BFP dance worked!

Sorry for radio silence here. Been busy and done masses of decorating over the weekend (thats not code for anything sadly!).

Absolutely delighted for Curly! Yay! Massive congrats.

Lets hope its not so long til the next BFP on this fred.

It's raining cats and dogs here and my boss is being a cock which is why I am rebelling and posting on mn when I should be running about after him. So need to get a BFP and get out of here. I've been in this job nearly 6 years, which is tooooooooooo long!

Congratulations curly! About Time there was a bfp around here!

In my fertile window right now no hopes for me this month because you actually need to have sex to make a baby . Only 6 opks left out of a pack of 50 so i'm going to tell myself once they're finished i'm quitting and going to relax for good old jsing.

4 months today since my miscarriage, feeling a bit down with it all the moment.

Go curly! Let the avalanche of BFPs begin!

Try to think positive waggamamma

Congrats Curly! Finally, we are at a bit of a drought in here. Tell us your stats then! How long? Due date? Do anything different this cycle?

Sorry you are feeling down Wagga. Can you treat yourself to something fattening to cheer yourself up? Hopefully a BFP will be the best way to cheer you up!

Just this second got the news one of my besties has had her baby. So pleased for her and actually feeling quite excited!

Congratulations curly

wagga isn't it annoying when they want to waste sperm?

Just waiting for ertd to arrive so i can hurry up and try again.

Congratulations curly, great news.

ERTD is here so the countdown begins, DH has been told when to prepare and I'm trying to get into the headspace...may be using some contraband this time too. The deadline of February to go the GP is getting closer which is some ways is rubbish but in others not so bad as at least we'll be getting a bit of help.

Best of luck anyone still JSing this month, hoping for a wintery avalanche of BFPs. xx

Hello all, congratulations curly

I've been mia for a while. Been super busy!

Sending out lots of baby dust and good vibes to you all.

Hi everyone.

I'm a bit sad. A girl I know just had a baby this morning. She smoked all through her pregnancy, and the baby was overdue but still weighed just 4lb. This baby was the product of a one night stand and the father is engaged to someone else. Howcome they manage to bring a baby into the world and I can't bloody well do it?!

Hey folks! Sorry I've been MIA too. Looks like it's a busy time of year for us all.

Sorry to hear that lots of us are feeling down and/or angry and frustrated ATM. It's so hard because you don't want it to take over your life but you just want closure too so you're hanging on and on waiting for something to happen either way and that's no good to anyone. I don't know what to say for all those waiting and grieving for MCs except I'm thinking of you and am feeling it too. I'm with you all.

Mr bear is away with work this week just in my fertile time. Great. We managed to do it twice at the weekend but I don't think we've got the timing right. Plus we've got our results appointment coming up at the start of November. I'm pretty sure they'll refer us for IVF but I just wish it would happen naturally before then. I might book myself in for acupuncture as a last resort. I'm not sure what else is left to try on the natural front. I'm also pretty sure though that the sperm are the issue. Any suggestions are welcome though!

Oh and congrats to Curly! Well done!

I often think the same myself Essie. It's just so unfair and no matter how many times people say that we should be grateful for what we already have, you can't compare yourself to others, blah, blah, the arguments start to wear a bit thin. Every time I hear something like that I feel smaller somehow. I've started actively avoiding situations with children or seeing friends with children as then I can cope a little easier with it all. I guess I've just run out of ideas. and need a break from it all which us kind of what I've been doing and burying myself in work, but it always comes back somehow.

Ps. None of us should apologise for these kind of posts on here (I know someone did recently but can't scroll back to see who). This is tough and this ha the place to vent so font feel selfish anyone for doing it. It's good therapy and we are all allowed some vent time.

Sorry for typos!

essie & bear

(hugs)
all those things feel incredibly unfair.
I'm learning not to question why, that's the only way I know I can cope with "injustice".

bear how far is Mr bear going? any chance you could go with him or visit him - so you can DTD in your fertile days?

I do hope you can conceive naturally, but if IVF is the route I hope you won't be too disappointed.
