Drop all things contraband, we don't want you're OPK's here. Grab a cape, stroke the unicorn and reserve your spot in the pity Jacuzzi...It's JUST SHAGGING THREAD 21!!

[lil1ady]

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!

congrats ness! i had a feeling after the furst faint line. im so used to bfns on those ics urs had to be a bfp!

well if not min next I think I'm next due. AF due Friday. Send the will to min then me!

sounds nasty juniper I assume all sorted now tho?

unicorn is our lucky charm

Yay, brill news ness .. hope you've told hubby now tho!!

Woohoo I'm on the roll call! ;-)

Glad I'm not the only boycotting OBEM this time. Felt a bit silly trying to explain to OH that I just can't deal with it right now!! (Still skyplussed it though... just in case )

Aw lil the words "lucky charm" is sending me off to Etsy to try to find a unicorn pendant to wear. I'm such a magpie! The h pylori is cleared with "triple therapy" - two lots of antibiotics and two months of proton pump inhibitors - knocked two months off TTC over the summer as the PPI can cause birth defects. :(

Right, back to work! Have a lovely evening ness xx

oh my goodness ness

I am thrilled! Wonder what mr ness is gonna say!

xxx

I haven't said yet, not sure how he's going to react, the last experience was pretty stressful for him, and he suffers with anxiety anyway, so I expect he may try and keep a bit distant from it emotionally until we know it's a goer. It's what I'd do if I could, but I'm just not built that way - I'm already figuring out due dates and when I'll finish for mat leave

ness post a pic pleaaaasssee!! You know you want to!! Oh and congratulations :)

Ness you are making me want to POAS.... lol

Yeah, ness where's the photo?! When's the due date? Let me live my excitement through you!

It's JSing night tonight. Sigh. Ok, cape on, look sexy. Look interested! Haha.

Ness congratulations! That's fantastic. I have sore side boob.... (clutches bundle of straws).

Aw how lovely to have some positive news so quickly. AF still not shown up for me (but may not actually be due yet). Stupidly getting a bit hopeful, but thankfully have no sticks to pee on. totally ignoring the premenstrual cramps I get every single month

Can I please request a slap in the face? I was lost in a pregnancy daydream this morning and drove in the completely opposite direction than I was supposed to and was therefore late for work. I wasn't even heading to the right city.

Oh, was going to suggest roller skates for the 80s theme, but maybe not if that second line is definitely there!

Congratulations Ness

watching dh go around arcade with my 11yo brother....he'd be such a good dad "sigh"

I'm watching my dh attempt to clean tar footprints off my living room carpet !!!?! Not feeling quite so warm and fuzzy!

Now he's ironing the carpet!! (Are you cheered up yet? ;-) )

Ness!!!!!!!!!!!! Wahoooooo!!!!! Congratulations!

And only 2 shags this month.. Zita West would have a fit! Just proves it only takes one go if you hit the right day!

Yes please do post your pee stick pick for us all, there are so many BFNs on canyouseealine.com I'd like to see what a faint BFP on an ic looks like!

Well, if we're going to be superstitious... didn't Ness start the last thread.. So maybe that brings luck

My AF is due this weekend, but I've only managed 3 JSs this month, and I think they all missed magic icing day. So I'm mercifully free from symptom spotting hell. do have sore boobs, insomnia and mega hunger though

Gentle Hooya for Wilhelm - we've all been there though, so don't worry.

RPopZ could you send your DH over to my house please? I have 2 piss stains on my upstairs carpet from my darling aged dog, and this morning she added a puke stain to them. I forked out on special 'dog piss digesting magic formula' for them.. and it seems to have made it worse! Perhaps I should get the iron out!!!

Aaah gotta love the furbabies.

Will gladly send him.over... might want to remind him to take his f@#*ing shoes off before he comes in though!!

He couldn't make it any worse than it is now.

Love my furbabies though - I have two, and they make my heart want to burst when I cuddle them. not so much when they pee and puke on the carpet though

haha rpopz thank u that did make me chuckle! I have no fur babies. I did have my mums cat for a while once as I wanted a cat and thought we'd see how we got on with one first... it went back to my mum when it peed in the spare room! took months to get the smell out. needless to say when we do turn that room into a nursery for a real baby we will getting a new carpet!

Hey!
Ok ok! The positive stick is here It's a First Response rather than an IC I'm afraid Michonne! If you click on my CYSAL user name though you can see my IC from this morning which I think has the faintest of faint lines on.
ICs are so totally white when they're BFNs that I think even if there's something v.v. faint going on there I think it's a BFP. God, I didn't half stare at those ones over the last few days
Told DH! Dropped it in casual like after tea, and he was gobsmacked! If things go to plan, the due date would be 10th November.
Even if we're lucky enough to get a real baby, I still want a fur baby too! I've told DH it's either 2 house cats or a chihuahua

that is definitely a line! awww a real life bfp, so that's what they look like lol
so pleased for you ness praying everything goes smoothly for you this time, and I'm sure it will. can I just say...11dpo! that lines going to be so clear by the time AF is late!

DH hates chihuahuas he says they are vicious!!!

I have a little cocker spaniel, sometimes think I couldn't possibly love a hooman baby as much as I love him!!

I know lil! What's even weirder is that it's only cd23! My AF wouldn't normally be due until 3rd March
Early icing and super speedy implantyness - hoping that's a good sign not that I'm starting to worry irrationally or anything!!
I won't be able to relax at all until
AF day comes and goes, especially with this spotting going on, but trying to keep the PMA!

just try and stay calm, take things easy and avoid stress ness you have no control over it so there really is no use worrying. x

Awww a real life positive line! That's ace! Hope you slept well ness, and full of smiles today. As lil said, try not to worry, the internet is sometimes the best and the worst place to be. Just concentrate on the fact thousands of women have the brown discharge and gone on to have the rugrat.
Its time for pma! X

I think I'm out for this cycle. Got cramps - they woke me up this morning but no sign of AF. Chin up and knickers down for next cycle!
