EWCM? BBT? OPK? WTF?! We’re just not using contraception!

[frakkinaround]

So a slightly lighter and less scary thread for those who are chucking away the pills and the condoms and hoping for the best!

Oh cock, I forgot my folic acid this morning. Thanks for reminding me, notso.

Do you want to hear my latest baby-crazed lunacy? Wandering around having imaginary conversations where I tell DP I'm pregnant. Please tell me I'm not alone (lie if you have to).

notso I've got an A4 printed 2010 calendar folded up in my purse with AF day 1 circled and shag-events (!) marked with an X. So I'll join you in that madness

pipi Yep! Done that! You are not alone. My top working script at the moment is "You are going to be a daddy" rather than "guess what, I'm pregnat".

Hey-ho. We're all proper mad.

BB

pipi you are not alone I do that, I also indulge in homebirth fantasies, and ones where I out Mum SIL who will be starting ttc in June.

I am clearly a loon.

Hello all and welcome franken!

Pipi - you are so not alone, I do that all the time. I even had a dream about it, but it movesd onto telling my mother who told me I'm ruining my life and nothing will ever be the same

I love this thread. There really is nowhere I else I can confess to wanting-yet-not-wanting to be pregnant, hide from taking a pregnancy test and have people understand! Or snigger at boob-poking in the office and secret fumbles.

It's Time Of The Month for me, which may explain the utter crapness before....

I need to slither over to living overseas to get advice about folic acid here. Apparently you can't just buy it off the shelf.

brassica - I have an iphone app which tracks my periods, I can say whether I took my pill or not and I can mark shags on (protected vs not protected)

It's a habit from being a reeeeeeeeallly bad pilltaker.

That's getting dangerous close to obsessing isn't it?! But I did it before TTC so that's my defence.

ROFL @ iphone period tracking app

Hello ladies, sorry I've missed you all, I've been, erm busy...
scary stuff

Very sad I missed this thread being most active. We NEED to get just shagging into 'Discussions of the Day' though!

Anything else new? Hope everyone's got a fun weekend lined up and not entertaining in-laws/planning a DIY-fest/anything else that will interfere with shaggy fun!

The carb craving just won't go. I'm seeing holes in the ovulation bleed theory.

Welcome back 30

Hi 30, you terrible hussy! Good stuff with the shagging as it was meant to be !

any more of you up the duff yet ;)

hope youre all ok - im in uni, putting off writing the bibliography for my mammoth essay that I have to hand in today... how are we all?

Still shagging away? xxx

Morning shaggers,

How are you all?

30 love your scary thread, I know what you mean about the first time, it feels so dangerous!

I am almost certain I ovulated yesterday at about half past 3, had period type pain and have been rather... moist, apologies for TMI.

Didn't get any though, had a bit of a row with dh. So hoping that the sexploits from day 11,12 and 14 will be enough.

Lingered far too long around the opk's in Boots too when buying more folic acid.
Although ds started taking an unhealthy interest in the "loooo-bri-cunt" (apparently he likes the word) and started saying it loudly, so I got out of there ASAP.

Lovely n sunny here. Feeling very spring like and surrounded by fertility, hope that is a good sign!

Kids on holiday for Easter so long lie ins all round, more time for mum n dad to play Easter bunnies in the bedroom

Really trying to not get hung up about dates but think missed ovulation window this month as we both got Thrush from over-shagging and had to miss a few days.(sorry for TMI)

OH still not admitting he is definitely wanting to make a baby but is enthusiastically embracing the condom-free sex, so I think he is taking the que sera approach (I hope).

30 loved your "Scary" thread- really funny.
notso hope you got to have make- up sex, isn't lube bad for the swimmers tho?

Happy Easter bunny sex to all.

Hey all. Only, well done on getting that essay away - good timing for a little easter break. What are you studying?

Notso I'm loving the pinpoint ovulation accuracy - who needs to spend £££ on a prediction kit!

And franken, you are clearly winning the shagging award of the month, impressive! HOW much are you getting?!?!

you can by swimmer friendly lube... look on lovehoney.com so you dont have to purchase it with delightful DS spelling it out

OWO you managed to get your word count down then. Thanks for the lube tip although I think I've got enough of my own at the mo'!

Frank or should I say Shagger of the month I'm going out with friends tonight so hopefully might have a drunken shag afterwards.

How are you today Brassica?

Nope Notso word count is still 3,467 instead of the 2,500 +/- 10% so I will just lie, grin and say the word count is 2,749...

So bored at work today. Loads to do, not much inclination. Supposed to be losing a few pounds, but had lasagne and chips for lunch and now just feel sleepy.

@ notso shopping in boots. At least the embarrassment kept you away from the OPKs.

owo Maybe you can translate your work into text speak?! Should save on a few words

Oh and the two days of v light bleeding has stopped. no idea what that was all about. Guess I'll just have to be patient and wait. A concept that anyone who knows me in RL would find hilarious! I have no desire to beat the thread target of £50 on pg test sticks in a month

£50 on tests?! Wow that's bulk buying...although I can forsee that when/if it happens I won't believe it until I've done 10 tests at least! And then I shall go to the medical lab and have a blood test done

Brassica - DO NOT WORRY. JUST SHAG. Here endeth the lesson

OWO - I haven't even started my next assignment yet. Suffering from severe CBAS (can't be arsed syndrome). I'm sure you can edit it down a little more. What are you studying?

30 - know what you mean about the scariness. We freaked out and went back to using condoms for a bit! I suspect we'll be giving it a rest this month as well after my 'oh shit I might actually be pregnant' meltdown .

franken - owwwwwww passing you the cannesten!

Getting more into this, therefore have worked out am a week ahead of myself, AF not due till next week. Can't work out if that means we are in luck, ovulation wise, or not. And puts paid to holiday fun.

Thanks for the Canesten, frakkin, tis great stuff but OH is NOT chuffed about having to use it too.

Thanks for the Award, folks . But to be honest, any shagging at all is a lot to an old "married" couple with 3 kids. Still, I reckon 2/3x a day recently, well, until got sore, is not bad considering.

Who is ovulating right now?....And the Shagger of the Month Award goes to....

2/3 times A DAY! And you have children....

What HAVE I been doing with my 20s?!

Right, nowt like a challenge...!

Hey 30, didn't say it was normal . Spring fever + condom free bliss, perhaps?

Mostly quickies anyway....

And our kids are plugged in to electronics quite a lot....

Tho I'm sure my 14 yr old is wise to our excuses. He once found a used condom in his bedroom, think the dog had dragged it out the bin . But he turns a blind eye, so to speak, and we don't need to know why he wears 2 pairs of pants to bed.

Think I am supposed to make some crass joke about trying to keep up, about now.

Rofl frank

Evening, hope you are all having a good Good Friday.
I had a really great night out last night but have been paying the price today by being good for nothing.
Did manage a shag this morning though.

Any news anyone?

Blimey frank. I've only been managing 3 times a week recently! Am going to have to up my game, I think!

Is everyone away shagging?!
