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!

phew. we made it with 4 mins to spare!

thanks misshobart

beetle is it spotting or full on bleeding? I've read that some people get spotting around ovulation, could it be that. I would see how things go over next few weeks. doctors wouldn't do anything for me after 5weeks of bleeding!

Thanks lillady x stupid body !

Yay lil! Glad you made it. Was DH with you? I thought my DH would struggle to look the nurse in the eye when we handed it over but he dealt with it well. Proud almost - haha! I though it was awkward but he didn't...

beetle - could be ov bleeding? Not sure why if you've not had it before but perhaps having lots of sex has made it more obvious than before?

Thanks lillady x stupid body ! Somewhere in the middle like the start of a period.

I have never had ov bleeding though I never had pain either till ttc! Thanks for your help how the hell are we ever meant to get pg! Sex and bleeding just don't make u feel like there is any point in trying.
So now - do I stay up till half 12 tonight to wait for DH to come home or give it up for this month? I'm away from fri till sun (cd17).
Aargh! Should have got knocked up at 16 !!!

Ladies. Hot off the press...bfp! I had the doc this morning and poas before going just so I had bang up to date result and holy shit did it not come up positive. It's a faint line but it's there for sure. I am now terrified, not really believing it but excited too.

Woo hoo Latium !
Congratulations xxx

Wooo latium! What a lovely surprise! Did you go to the docs anyway?! Congratulations!

Yay Latium that is fab news!! Can we have a pic i do love looking for a line!!

yeay!! late-i'am! ! that's awesome news. so who will be the third and make it a hat trick?

congrats Latium that's excellent news!

dulcet dh drove and was going to come in but we had such little time we didn't want to waste time parking. he dropped me at the door and I ran! felt weird handing over dhs fellas to a girl with a nose ring!

Blimey Latium that's fantastic!

So all that time you were late, and testing BFNs.... and you were pg all along. It was the metallic taste in the mouth that made me think you were - just goes to show eh viroids, it aint over till the fat lady sings!

Lovely to have some positivity on the thread!!

at Lil handing DPs little fellas over!

I felt a bit like that after DPs SA - we had to drive a long way to the clinic (part of the vas reversal package was having SA done at their clinic), then when we drove home we passed the clinic and I felt wrong just leaving a part of DP behind! I waved goodbye and wished them well (and they did us proud )

I'm on day 1 of JSing week. Going to try, try, try for EOD at least for as long as we can possibly manage this month. I'm hoping my positive mental attitude now that we know DP isn't infertile might make me more fertile!

Thanks ladies. Cautiously excited now. Dh is delighted and full of it re I told you not to worry etc etc. I went to the doctor anyway and showed her the pee stick as well as my one side of a4 symptoms and differential diagnosis!!! Mow I bet that's not annoying for a doctor! You're right cosy it just shows you it ain't over until she shows up. Keep the hope ladies. Best wishes to all going for SA and tests etc. Keep up the shagging x

Love that you took a list of symptoms to the GP.

'Look, here's my positive pee stick. and if you don't believe that, look at all the other evidence!!'

Did you get any indication of how far along you are - i.e. did you work out whether you did have a lave ovulation, or whether you ovulated when you thought you did, and have just taken ages to show up a BFP?

(I'm showing my ignorance here, no idea whether they can tell you that from a pee test at all)

latium that is excellent news!!!

I wonder if you could turn the pineapple and core into a smoothie in a blender and drink it through a straw to cut down on the mouth/tongue pain? Same benefits would still exist I would imagine. Pineapple is definitely acidic and even though I love it, too much can definitely sting!

lil been there, done that re: frantic drive with the love cup between my boobs! Ha! It's a roadtrip we will never forget. Glad you made it in time.

Good to hear from you, bear - pop in when you can! I am keeping my fingers crossed that you get your letter soon.

I am still feeling sick, I can't shake this cold. Throat is sore, sore, sore. I did a bad thing and dipped into leftover antibiotics, but of course I was punished with a horrible stomachache. I might cancel this work from home day and just crawl back into bed. Today is DH's birthday so I want to be a bit more festive than this when he comes home!

latium excellent news, congratulations! I always thought that people saying it took a while to get a BFP while late were making it up so I'll adjust my thinkin on that. Brilliant news!

Sorry you're ill red hope you're better soon.

Congratulations Latium Wonderful News xxx

Congrats Latinum !! Fx for sticky bean!

I'm really glad you've said that beetle - I've been having random spotting this month and last for no good reason!
Last month it was around OV time, so thought it might be ovulation spotting (tho never had it before!, but this month I finished AF on day 6, then shagged day 7 & 8, started spotting again day 8-11! Just like you said, it's sort of like a period starting, dark CM rather than blood... It's getting up my nose! Decided to get the cape on tonite regardless!

Grrr, my congrats to Latium has vanished! I said:

Well thank goodness for that Latium! That was the best possible reason for a late AF!! Congratulations!!!
We're on a roll viroids!!

It's getting up my nose! god I hope not, that's the last place you want it Nessa!!!

Ha ha my thoughts too cosy. you don't really want that up your nose. To all of you having strange symptoms I would say try not to worry. That's rich coming from me I know. Me that was in the doctor with the full side of a4. I always tend to think the worst but this has shown me not to worry so much. Thanks all.

I will be keeping everything crossed for furthe BFPs from you all x

Haha!!

It does look like a nose bleed to be fair!!!!!
I am peed of as never have mid cycle bleeding and have heavy ish but reg periods. Since ttc I had a scary big bleed 3 days after a period and I honestly thought he had damaged my foof from ttc !! And then spotting a few months ago and now this. We aren't consistent but as soon as we try I go and bleed.
I have given up Poas ing as expensive and cheap ones didn't really show me anything though cheap ones darkened in col but not enough. Poas today and the whole thing went pink wtf!
Nessa you have inspired me my cape was def in the wardrobe but have decided to wait up and risk falling asleep at work tomorrow!

I still think I may need to order a cute one from the internet at this rate ; ) x will have to go to docs but that's like admitting you have a problem : (
