Come and join us on the brand new, rather fabulous, and very slightly notorious (or so we'd like to think!) JUST SHAGGING PART 19!!

[Nessalina]

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 with your fredmates where needed.

JSing lingo

ERTD = Evil Red Tide of Dooooooommmmmmm. Or AF to most others.

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!

Pant snot = Egg white cervical mucus.

Doing a kitten = Getting upduffed soon after joining (warning: may induce envy in other posters).

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.

Icing = ovulating. Another autocorrect development!

Getting your Cape on = planning some serious pouncing on DH/DP

TWOT - Two Weeks of Torture!

Happy shagging shaggers!

Ertd got me today arghhhh wishes this was easier

Sorry Cookie. sending you a sly hug.

ah cookie on the bright side you can drink and eat brie over crimbo!

bear your positivity is inspiring. its ok to go and have a little cry in the loo. sometimes its just necessary! especially when idiots with big gobs are involved!

mornin lovelies!!

mr rach got his groove on last night (bloody hell AF has only just departed and he is on it like a car bonnet!)

he is planning shagtastic shenanigans all over chrimbo so even if we don't get bfp in jan, we will have had fun practicing.

I am wishing (so so hard) for a bfp though and i know what you mean about sneaking off to the toilets for a cry. sometime it all feels a bit cruel.

right! off to ammend my tesco click and collect order for the umpteenth time.

Hello, i have finally got to a real key board

I thought it really would have been a long shot to get pregnant this month as we only really dtd two times, i am in two minds of what to do.

I have managed to track down the number for my consultant, who is on annual leave her Pa was able to give me info on whether my and dh's results had come in, they haven't. So even though the midwife said that they no news most likely means its a negative, i know the results not being in means that it could still be a problem.

For all the newbies or anyone who is unsure what i am rambling on about, i had a miscarriage in September and the baby had fluid on the abdomen and neck which they said could of been the cause of the baby dying, i had a ERPC and requested Genetic testing, which revealed the baby had died as a result of a chromosome defect on chromosome 1. The Midwife said it is an extremely rare complication and because of the rareness they tested to see if DH and i are carriers, its these test results we are waiting for.

The major problem is, i don't want to run the risk of getting pregnant again and not seeing a hb at the scan. I hope its just a one off and we were just unlucky. So i guess the results will be through in the new year.

Bear i am so hoping you get your BFP!!

Furry Is it just a thicker syringe, does it feel wierd putting it in? How far up do you put it?

lentil everybody else I read that Brussel sprouts are supposed to boost both male and female fertility, i assume that is down the the green veg if your eating spinach and kale.

Quark please POAS!!

1974 i don't have heating

cosy my sister has been banging on at me to get a bbt for ages, when she conceived both her boys she was tracking from day 1, i was more on the let see what happens road. Any who 6 months later i still hadn't bought the thermometer but had cracked out the ovulation sticks and was trying the sperm meets egg plan (and it worked) so even though this is the just shagging thread, i say meh i doesn't matter

Re, people getting pregnant unfortunately i see it all the time, i work in a private day nursery and parents, work colleagues are always getting pregnant, well it feels like that any way. I also work with the babies, so there is no escaping it really

Well i guess i should get back to work

Epic Post!!

Um i just got an early Christmas present ........ A BFP!

Sitting here sobbing like a loon, the dog is looking at me like I am crackers!

Just want to say a massive thank you to you all!! I have been on here over a year and had a mc in sept so i just hope this one sticks! Fingers crossed, I am already further on than last time!

Hope everyone is ok.

Whoop whoop! Massive congratulations to you quark! What lovely news! All things crossed for a very sticky BFP! xxx

Dr lurking to say a huge congratulations to quark!!! Hope you all get your bfp's in your Christmas stocking! Xx

Coffeewineandchocolate (aka butterytoast)

Cogratulations Quark

Quark congratulations!

Congratulations Quark
BFP's on here really do make you
I hope this means the droughts over & the BFP's come flooding in

cookie preseed applicators are like tampon applicators. You sort of put it in as far as it'll go, no idea if I'm doing it right but its making DTD more fun!

massive congratulations quark what a fab xmas suprise! x

I checked in just in time for a BFP! quark what awesome news! Fingers crossed for the happiest, healthiest 9 months as you deserve it.

I have been super busy with work (today is day 1 of my week and a half vacation, woo!), writing out Christmas cards, etc. - but I haven't forgotten any of you! Keep up the positivity and holiday spirit.

Yay
Et the BFPs fall like Christmas snowflakes.
So so happy for you quark, lots of tissues and caffeine free drinks being sent your way, that's so lovely! Have you told DH yet?

Well I'm back from fabulous NYC and t was fabulous, it really was! Freezing tho! Snowed whilst I was the and didn't get any warmer so froze on the ground. Central park in the snow is lovely. I've come back with blisters on the sole of both feet, a knackered back and legs but some wonderful memories!
Managed to bump uglies just twice as we were so very tired, and was on an aircraft all last night and in an airport all today waiting for connections, app says today/yesterday is the magical day so we've missed that boat... Again!
Grrrrrr
Oh well.
I've read thru the fred, everyone seems a bit down so I'm sending lots of PMA and christmas cheers first class to all us JSers, in the immortal words of buddy the elf (ish), the best way to spread BFP cheer is to sing it loud for everyone to hear!

Thanks so much all, keep looking at the pee stick to check its real! Not told my Dh yet. He is out with work on mad Friday. He will be back late and drunk. Should I tell him then/phone him now or tell him tomorrow morning?

minion I am very jealous, sounds like you had a wonderful time! Get JSing tonight! It might not be too late.

Baby glitter and Christmas sparkles to all! Hope everyone can have a nice chilled out weekend!

Quark- I am soooooo happy for you!!! Huge congratulations! I am so excited for you. I'd tell him when he gets home or ring him- I wouldn't be able to wait. Sending you a big furry Christmas hug!

Woooooooooohoooooooooooo! so happy for you Quark a jsers bfp was just what I needed to lift my mood. Sending you hugs and virgin eggnog

I'm sure it will be hard after mc but try and enjoy this and not worry too much.

as for telling your dh if he'll be drunk I'd go out and get a digi to do on the morning and show him that...it will spell it out for him then!

Cookie- in my absences I somehow missed your news. I'm so sorry to hear that and everything you must have been through. Really hoping that your tests come back ith the right results for you.

Oh Quark I'm so thrilled for you!!! Amazing news. You really deserve it after last time, so sending lots of sticky good vibes your way!
Hurrah for festive BFPs!!
Me & DH got our festive capes on last night - first proper TTC shag, so here's hoping my insides are sorted out and ready for it! I'm feeling really good about it at the moment, really excited to be back on the baby wagon

woop woop quark

massive congratulations on your bfp

how did mr quark take the news?

xx

Just catching up - Congratulations Quark!!!

I had a little sob at the thought of you sobbing like a loon! Lovely news

Cookie so sorry to hear what you have been through, and it must be frustrating to still be waiting for the test results. I guess they won't come in until after the Christmas holiday now eh? Grrrrr.

I'm having a lovely lie in (well everyone says it's something you miss when you have DCs, so its one of the things I take pleasure in as a compensation for being childless!) and feeling positive as I'm entering JSing week. DP and I had a talk about how we didn't try hard enough last month, only DTD about 2 times. So he's under strict orders - Must try harder!

Hope everyone else is having a relaxing weekend and not feeling any pre-christmas stress.

Thanks again. I managed to get Mr Quark on the phone last night and he didn't sound too drunk so I told him. He is chuffed but too hungover to really show it this morning. Did a digi for him to see the word "pregnant" and everything!

Stressing over how I am going to get through Christmas Day with his alcohol loving parents but it's a nice problem to have!

Fingers crossed cookie for some good test results and I hope they don't keep you waiting to long in to the New Year.

Good luck to those getting your festive shag capes out. I might have to add some tinsel to my sick bucket, I am spending way to much time staring in to the thing just now!

Delurking.... Congratulations Quark!

Congrats Quark what a lovely pressie for you

Cookie I hope your test results come back with good news

I was contemplating my guilt over feeling annoyed at folk in RL getting pg when we're trying and came to the thought that surely at every stage of life we get this, so there's no point feeling bad. For example a single friend of mine was stood up last night so came to our house for a few drinks. DH was being quite the lovely bloke he is and checking if we needed drinks and snacks etc and I thought "I wonder if she looks at us and feels annoyed that we're so far on with the romance and marriage thing and feels like she's at square one, much like we do with being parents"

Wooly comparison but made me think!
