The 'rules'

Maintain a relaxed attitude at all times - drink if you want too, especially on your birthday. Thread precedent dictates if you drink to excess you will get a BFP (but not recommended)

Covet thy husband and enjoy every minute. Shag at ever opportunity - shag-capes and awesome superpowers optional.

Resist the lure of ovulation predictor kits, Taking Control of Your Fertility and the dreaded First Repsonse. Knowing where you are in your cycle is entirely permissible though!

Going to the doctor is permitted if you've had a stupidly long cycle but beware of the dildo-cam-scan.

Keep acronmyage to a minimum! EWCM is now to be referred to as 'pant snot'.

Keep us up to date with gossip!

Yes, sorry to hear about your nan

But congratulations on your wedding. When is it?

OnlyWantsOne · 28/06/2010 19:49

hello all ladies, how are you all?

Dp longingly reminded me of when we were TTC and I through my legs in the air in wild abandon. Poor love. Now nearly 18 weeks (on wednesday) and getting lardy...

I wish you all well and send you all massively huge pregnant vibes, have some nork ache, and morning sickness too

vallinnapod · 28/06/2010 20:12

takethat ARRRGGGHHHH on your behalf! I can almost see why they didn't used to give results over the phone.

I just POAS - It was my 'allowed' fortnightly one! BFN. At least I have no guilt over the amount of booze I consumed over the w/e. Disappointing anyways. Huge boobs at the mo but not sore, still had glimmer of hope.

I have to wait until Wednesday evening to get the slide show that was my dildo cam moment. Am already bracing myself for the outcome. It can only be 'it's normal, let me refer you' or 'it's abnormal, let me refer you'

It's also the first time I actually meet this GP as all my hypochondriac moments with him have been over the phone. I will also have to refrain from hugging him and telling I love him for sending me for any sort of test in the first place

BrassicaBabe · 28/06/2010 20:22

Hiya only don't tell me JSing ends once BFP?! Blime that's gone quick too.

vallinna Do you get to take popcorn for your slide show?

Well my calness at my 2WW is still there but the mentalness has noticed up a semi-quaver since yesterday. There's time yet for full on madness. Still, we're JSing which is keeping me sane

JustKeepSwimming · 28/06/2010 20:36

Hi can I join in?

Have 2 boys already (4 & 2) and hoping to add to them at some point.

Am currently waiting to test/trying not to get tempted to test as our timing was much more JS than TTC

takethatlady · 29/06/2010 08:18

Thanks everyone for your messages of mutual frustration! But AF is finally f*ing here - woohoo! I should be down about this given I spent a lot of last week fully believing I was pregnant, but I am actually chuffed to bits because it means 1. I was spot on about the pant snot - 14 days ago exactly, and I wasn't charting or even looking for it. And 2. The gallons of booze I swigged on Saturday are 100% guilt free.

I am also chuffed because all that booze cheered me up anyway

Hello swimming, love the name [does the butterfly to welcome swimming to the thread]

brassica 'fess up! What levels of mentalness are you approaching now ?

vallinna GOOOOOOD LUCK for tomorrow If it helps, I was talking to my SIL on Saturday about my stupid situation and she said she came off the pill a while ago and didn't have a period for four months (not to ttc) - and then she went back on it. All her doctor would say was that this was normal. WHY don't they tell you this when you're on the pill! Grrr for sexist withholding of information ...

Now have to confirm to everyone I told I was pregnant that I am in fact an idiot, and clearly ttc is beyond the powers of my tiny little brain. But the super-shag-powers are coming straight back out of the closet!

shitforbrains · 29/06/2010 08:42

Hello ladies

Please can I join in and play?
been on MN donky's yonks but under other names.
TTC #3 but DS2 was a very nasty birth and I fear has left my insides not up to the job. I am on month 4 of TTC.

Am seriously broody and really hoping that 2 DS's, whilst gorgeous, are not the end of my little family

Can someone please tell me what 'JS' means?

shitforbrains · 29/06/2010 08:44

ah - Just Shagging.
Geddit.

GirlWithTheMouseyHair · 29/06/2010 11:05

vanilla hope all goes well today!

takethatlady sorry about period turning up, but glad you're receiving it well!

I have decided to ignore pant snot, sounds a bit too close to charting to me. Besides, my periods go between setting a clock by them then not having one for a month or two. Am just too lazy to even think about temperatures and ovulation....god and don't get me started on the whole when to try for a girl and when to try for a boy thing in terms of when you ovulate....I just want to have sex when I want!

Speaking of which I think it's all bullshit anyway because if you go from my due date for DS apparently I conceived him 5 days after coming off the pill.

in other news - we finally bought a bed this weekend and christened it last night! Spent the last 4 months on a borrowed futon mattress on the floor, glad to say the bed is sturdy

Lovemylulu · 29/06/2010 11:38

Hi all, I love these threads and the whole 'pant snot' thing really made me laugh! Always seems to be this time of the month that I come back and see what's going on... I think I kid myself that I am chilled out about it all if I don't follow the threads all the time!
I think we may have been JS at the right time this month according to the pant snot it's the first time I have really noticed it... so fingers crossed... let's wait and see...

shitforbrains · 29/06/2010 11:48

what does pant snot signify then?

takethatlady · 29/06/2010 17:56

EWCM shitforbrains. Nice name by the way . You too lovemylulu! Good luck - sounds very promising!

My thermometer came today . On the positive side, I had an argument with the ebay seller about it (it didn't arrive, I had my own shit for brains and couldn't see how to contact the seller so I just left negative feedback, then I worked it out, contacted the seller and said I would remove the feedback once I got the thermometer, and she was very . Then I changed the feedback to neutral, because she'd been a bit arsey, and then she was even more ) So although I have a thermometer it is angry and hormonal and will be used for shag-tastic purposes and not boring or obsessive ones (I promise!)

For a start you can do armpit, mouth, vaginal or rectal temps! Gross. Feel a bit sad for the other orifices - what's wrong with belly buttons and nostrils?! Going to start thinking of other places I can stick it (as long as I can sterilise it after...)

Apart from that, nothing to report. Have period pains which feel like someone is scraping out my uterus with a spoon ... can't wait for it to end so I can start throwing some shag-shapes!

JustKeepSwimming · 29/06/2010 18:10

Thanks Takethatlady & hi everyone else

i'm bored of waiting to test! only CD27 out of a poss 35 day cycle, can't even legitimately start thinking about maybe buying a test (luckily none in the house!!) for aaages!!

And fairly sure i'm not pg anyway so really it's a wait for af to arrive, leave, wait a bit more, then OV. Really this whole thing should happen faster!
And don't get me started on having to wait 9months to meet baby!!!!

takingtheplunge · 29/06/2010 19:46

Hello everyone! sorry to hear about AF takethat but at least you know where you are now.

JKS I know what you mean about the waiting...there's a lot of waiting with ttc, isn't there? At least once you're pregnant the bump grows and so on, so that's something to keep you amused.

I'm fairly sure I must be past ovulation now and have slight cramps but think it's just wind. Don't think I got pregnant this month. No point in testing for a good 10 ten days anyway and I'm going to try not to test til AF is late. (may well cave before that).

GirlWithTheMouseyHair · 29/06/2010 19:48

what is CD anyway? (have i honestly tried for a baby before???!)

takingtheplunge · 29/06/2010 20:02

CD is cycle day.

vallinnapod · 30/06/2010 10:04

Morning ladies!

Hope you all had restless nights for the correct reasons

Dildo-cam results this arvo...would it surprise anyone on here that I WANT THEM NOW! They are sitting somewhere and someone else knows what they say....ARGH!

Any whose, I am now on a count down I never hoped to be on. Today is CD93 (I know, I can't really classify it as a CD but I will) so I am 1 week of a century. And yes, it feels precisely that long.

takethatlady · 30/06/2010 10:19

Oh vallinna that's exactly what I would be thinking. I'm always losing things and thinking 'those keys (or pens, or important documents, or whatever) are sitting somewhere right now, really smugly, and they know exactly where they are, and I DON'T' so if it was dildo-cam I'd be tearing my face off by now!

If it's any consolation to your unbelieeeeeeeeeeeeeeevably long wait you have been the true spirit of JSing in all that time! How you keep giving us funny and upbeat posts I don't know! You are the Queen of JS in my book Good luck today. And if you don't get to hear what you want, just tell the doc where to shove her dildo-cam!

takingtheplunge · 30/06/2010 15:13

any dildo cam updates vanilla?

vallinnapod · 30/06/2010 15:59

5:50 appt. Will give you a Jonathan-Ross-Film-2010 style review on my return, providing it doesn't drive me to drink

JustKeepSwimming · 30/06/2010 17:44

Good luck

gormers · 30/06/2010 18:24

Good luck vallinna!

Anyone else a but tired from all the JS?! Feel like I need a break! Have to write a report tonight for tomorrow which will rake until late in the evening, and will have to get up at 5.30 in the morning; need to muster up some time and energy for a quick JS at some point tonight too! Quite fancy just a cocoa tonight!

Osch · 30/06/2010 18:56

ohhh can i join???
We've been trying for 3 months and am desperately trying not to get obsessed!So i think i need some of your way of thinking... i'm on my 2ww which seems to have been such a long time, according to pant snot (love that btw!) AF should be due next tuesday... maybe.... cycles seem to be all over the place at the mo!

takethatlady · 30/06/2010 19:21

Hey osch! Hope you're coping on the 2ww. I think I've got irregular cycles too - I've only had 2 since coming off the pill but one was 3 weeks longer than the other This time I'm hoping for a long one as DH is away from 9th-17th so I don't want that to be prime shagging time!

I'm on AF gormers so no JSing for me at the moment You could try a quickie before work in the morning?! That way you get your cocoa tonight too! (that, or build the cocoa into the shag ).

[Wonders how frakkit is doing with the in-laws around...?]

takethatlady · 30/06/2010 19:22

PS - any news vallinna?
