You can do it by charting, analysing, testing, and worrying, but we prefer... JUST SHAGGING PART 20!!

[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!

hiya
Lil - hope you hear something sooner than later. I had tests done but chickened out to hear results as felt it was too soon to become scientific
minion - brill news about the water. This month i have been like the Sahara desert so will up the water
juniper - you are quiet today, have you poas ywt? Exciting!
geniz - hi welcome. really nice group here
cozy - good luck with temping I've heard you will learn a lot about your body. a little contraband is allowed right?
cookie- hope things are settling now
dulcet - good luck with everything.

I may get asked to leave for breaching contraband next month. witch is due Fri, and (if) when she comes thwn next month I'm going all out. gonna CBFM to find good days, take soy isoflavones from d2 to 6, wheatgerm (maybe) drink gallons and shag every other day. If that doesn't do it then I shall be having serious words!! lol.
anyone else any suggestions towards going all out?

Thanks saznut and Mrsb!

Some things others do saznut - evening primrose oil to improve CM before ov I think, pineapple eaten afterwards to aid implantation. Sex every other day is a must if you are going all out!

I am around! No POAS action yet. Waiting to see if AF turns up today. May test tomo. Can't decide if I prefer a BFN or ERTD to let me know After all this weirdness the disappointment will be hard to take

Good luck for next cycle saz, you sound well prepared.

Hello, joined on last thread so just checking in here
Don't know everyone yet but good luck one and all! AF due imminently so fingers crossed. Have no clue about symptoms, but from what I remember of last time round I didn't have any anyway.

hi northern

While we're on shout outs, where's latium? Any news? x

saz just whisper the details to us, that way u can stay I hope because I've bought cbfm for next month too re the pineapple I'd just add you eat 1/5th of a pineapple, including core for 5days only, 1-5dpo. after that stop as it can cause mc in large quantities.

cosy don't feel bad about the bbt. it is an eye opener. just don't get obsessed with it. the reason I joined this group was because all I was thinking about was what my temp was doing, what could it mean. its not worth it to stress. just be good enough to get a good pattern from it. when I do it now, like for working out day 21, I stop after my app confirms I've ovd so then I can't stress and imagine triphasic patterns and rubbish like that!

red I bet it's odd taking bcp again! good luck!

hi to everyone else

I'll try not to get obsessed with the bbt... just want to see proof that I'm ovulating, as well as timing that damn blood test right!

Hmmm is good food for fertility contraband? No? Good - because I'm going to try the Pineapple thing this month too. I'm also downing a glass of grapefruit juice every day, it's supposed to help CM I think..?

Re Pineapple - do you have to buy a whole fresh one, or will tinned do? Does it have to include the core, in which case it will have to be fresh.

DP is going to look at me funny when I come home with a pineapple tonight...

cosy it has to be fresh. tinned is heat treated which removes the bromelain which is the thing that's supposed to help. also the core has the highest concentration of bromelain. be warned though it will hurt your tongue!

I get the fresh packs in sainsburys to save the faff of having to cut it up at work but it doesn't have as much core in as you would if you bought one.

Agree with the tongue thing though lil. Sat here nursing mine with a biscuit now...

Hello all, things do seem to be improving which is a Yay!!

And also i got a BFP at lunch time today!!

cookie that is awesome, congratulations!

xxx

I can't believe it, we weren't really even trying this month and then what happened happened and now i am pregnant. I am due on, on Thursday but have been feeling really really tired this week so thought i would take a test yesterday, i got the faintest line a real squinter, all day i was like 'is that a line' was gonna try and wait till Thursday but cracked and tested at lunch time, and there is a line!! I really can't believe it! OMG!!

congratulations cookie that's fantastic! have you told oh? glad things are improving for you x

Yes, i have told him, he was like oh ok, well that's the decision made, (meaning he'll stick with me) and i was like 'Thanks' then he text later saying that it was great news and he was just in shock. I was like yeah me to mate!!

Wow cookie thats so exciting! Congratulations hun!

Hey girls, i disappeared for a bit so just checking in.

Wow congrats cookie, you have been on a rollercoaster ride recently. Make sure you take care of yourself. Good luck to all those waiting.

In late I am news... Still no sign of ertd and currently on cd40. But still negative test results so pretty sure am not PG. Just a little worried what is going on so have doc on thu and also dentist in case there could be something mouth wise to explain the metallic taste!! After that mot I should have a better idea of what is going on.

I'm ok with not being PG at this point as not long started trying. I just thought my regular cycle was the one thing I could rely on. Best laid plans huh?

Hi all, I was on the old thread and have been following this one also, no news here. Still just shagging !

Congratulations to Cookie , wishing you both all the best xx

Wow congrats cookie! Hopefully is the reality check he needs to get it sorted. So pleased for you.
