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!

I'm reaching the 2ww soon and will turn into an unimaginable nightmare obsessive of epic proportions Grin Just thought I'd give you all a warning! Grin

BrassicaBabe · 01/09/2010 14:03

vallinna will you come back and tell me all of the details? Mine is booked for next Tuesday. Are you going on your own or taking someone with you?

I couldn't manage a week with my mother. So good on you!

vallinnapod · 01/09/2010 14:33

Takethat I know what you mean about 'loving' DH being in the wrong. I am nearly always at the cause of our arguements therefore I absolutely revel in being in the right - how bad is that ;o)

Brassica the only danger with me is TMI rather than TLI (little!) after these things Grin I am going by myself. It's at 4:30 so I can go straight home afterwards. In my mind it really shouldn't be too bad. Just like a dildocam. I have been told to take a couple of painkillers about 30mins before and that there may be discomfort (period pain like) afterwards. TMI but I think the discomfort is because they have to 'force' a cathater through a closed cervix. I think this is also the reason they give you antibiotics. One hint I read on another site is to take a sanitary towel with you as some of the dye will leak out on the way home. Full report on Thursday evening - maybe I can try painting with my chuff? Like a potato print....not that my bits resemble a potato...not unless it's a weirdy organic one (potato not fanjo...)

baby2b · 01/09/2010 14:51

pmsl at organic potato fanjo vallinnapod GrinGrin

milanomum · 01/09/2010 16:58

LOL at chuff painting! You certainly keep a sense of humour in the middle of all the crap Vallinna - hope it goes ok.

takethat men are always wrong and it's our duty to milk it for as long as possible.

It's our 4-year anniversary today so am abliged by contract to shag this evening. I'm 4 days into my 2ww and remaining remarkably sane so far

I'm wondering if there is anyone here who is really just js-ing? Should we all admit it or just keep pretending we don't really care Wink?

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 01/09/2010 17:49

ROLF at your fanjo potato painting Vallinna

Milano I tried to woo DH into JSing last night and he said something about me not being fertile! Hello!? I reminded him that sex is for fun too and he agreed. Still had to do with out though Sad. Shall have to get me short skirt out tonight.

AF due on Friday. Am soooo pleased that the week is nearly over. Am feeling like I did last cycle pre AF due day, minus the crappy virus, so looking forward to a succesful POAS and no losing it (esp as I forgot to get my reverse psycology tampons in the shop today). Here's to setting myself up for a fall!

kat2504 · 01/09/2010 18:02

Boo back to work today after six weeks off! Will give me less time to obsessively google facts about fertility at least!

NoMore I like the reverse psychology tampons idea. I bought tampons and pg tests at the same time in Asda. Not anywhere near time to poas yet and I know having the things in the house will make it harder to resist. In middle of 2ww at the moment. But have tampons so like the idea that bfp more likely now :)

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 01/09/2010 18:19

Who gave me cakes? I've eaten all the damn things and now I feel bad sick (obviously good sick is pg related).

Kat I stole the idea from another viriod, but it was weeks ago so can't give credit where credit is due.

cowboylover · 01/09/2010 18:22

I think I did that subconciously last week as I bought more folic acid, tampons and a test as my AF is due on Monday so anything could happen!

I think this has been one of the longest months in ages so I just want to get on with September for either a BFP or not so I can get on with JSing at the right time all the time

NervousNelly · 01/09/2010 18:23

Blimey Viriods ? SLOW DOWN!!!! (on the posting at least, not the JSing!) I can?t keep up?

Milano ? I think I?m truly sticking to the thread ethos so far. I have not bought, never mind used, any PG tests, OPKs or anything. We have sex all through the month (well except for a few days Hmm) and I never hardly ever google random fertility related items. I do know where I am in my cycle, but that?s allowed! However, before you all throw heavy objects at me, it?s my first month of TTC JS so there is time yet for me to break the rules.

I too bought reverse psychology lillets the other day. At the same time as 3 packs of Mum To Be vitamins. Bless the woman on the till, she was a little confused Confused.

Vallinna your chuff painting really made my chuckle. Am at my desk so had to keep it quiet! A minute later my (male) boss also quietly had a wee chuckle at something, I do hope he?s not looking at MN too Wink

Josie thanks for the warning. Will use my shagcape as a defence shield.

takethat glad your DH has learned the error of his ways Grin

Brassica and Vallinna good luck for all the nasty sounding tests you have going on.

Can?t believe how quickly this thread is moving along, going to be time for a new one. I enjoy reading it though, as only on CD4 so can?t do much in the way of JSing, so I?m living vicariously through you lot :)

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 01/09/2010 18:43

Goodness someone is living vicariously through my need to wee on a stick all the time!

Right stepping away from the MN until later tomorrow.

Happy mid week shagging viriods Gringrin]Wink

BrassicaBabe · 01/09/2010 20:52

CD4 for me too nervous

Yeah, AF has left the building after just 3 days! I'm so going to get it tonight!

I'm trying to stick to thread ethos milano Ok, so use of OPKs, clomid and radio-active fanjo say otherwise Grin But just think how mental I would be if I wasn't at least trying to be calm about it all?! GrinWink

You lot on the 2ww seem remarkably sane so far.

HarderToKidnap · 02/09/2010 08:29

CD 20 here. Poking boobs like mad. Thought they felt a bit tender earlier but then realised I had been poking them, hard, for about two days. Otherwise nothing to speak of. Don't "feel" like I could be pregnant, just don't see it happening this month. I have three tests hanging around in the bathroom and knowing me there is no way I will be able to put it off past CD28, despite the fact my last cycle was 37 days long!

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 02/09/2010 08:36

Told DH I was feeling sick this morning and as he walked out the door he told me no peeing on sticks! It's to early to POAS anyway and besides, if this keeps up, the POAS will only be a formality.
Now how to hide a peppermint tea addiction under wraps. Hmm

HTK you and your over poked boobs are funny! Smile

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 02/09/2010 08:37

Now how to keep a peepermint tea under wraps.

That makes more sense.

BrassicaBabe · 02/09/2010 08:38

That husband of yours has got you bang to rights hasn't he nomore!! Grin

Funny harder poking her boobs

BrassicaBabe · 02/09/2010 09:56

Heavens, bored today!

SnowpeaWithEnthusiasm · 02/09/2010 10:38

Hello Shaggers! Well CD9 over on this side of the world, where I swear on our first day of spring all the jasmine blossomed! I was very excited, though I think that might also be some residual excitement that DP and I are actually, truly, and enthusiastically ttc. Although, since there's no sign of pant snot (repeat after me, I will not poas to see if ov, I will not poas to see if ov) I suppose we are JSing. It's been fun though! On a brief hiatus now, as DP has flown to Adelaide for three days to sign papers on some land he's bought with his parents. I wish I could have gone, but have a workshop this weekend. However, if my body is perfectly normal, he should be back for a week of ovulation shagging. Then again, my body hasn't done what it should since DS was born almost 4 years ago. Grrr.

Nelly I'll join you polishing my halo, but I think my obsession with reading this forum already shows that I probably won't have much discipline when the 2ww finally comes. I'm already impatient for the 2ww :)

takethatlady · 02/09/2010 11:02

Good luck POAS nomore. If I remember rightly you had (unsticky) luck last month, like me, so if you feel the same that sounds hopeful!

Reading through the recent posts I have realised that I have smugly felt I do live up to the ethos of the thread simply because I don't use OPKs. But I do pee on an average of about 25 sticks a month, I'm pretty sure I could take the crown for the most ridiculous google searches ever, and I'm SO with kidnap. I might even have to get me a sparkly boob poker to go with my shag cape. At least it might disguise all the poke-age as fun.

Grin at poke-age. DH is so apologetic and he gave me a bit of pokery himself last night. Now that's got to qualify me for the thread...

JosieSmith1 · 02/09/2010 11:17

Morning everyone

Loving the fanjo potato painting Vallinna though I?m afraid I won?t want to see the finished article Grin

Lmao Hardertokidnap at your sore over-poked boobs! Grin

Nelly I can?t polish my halo, still need to redeem myself from the last 2ww as I went a bit loopy! I will try much harder not to be obssessive a little bit preoccupied this time around!

Shag cape had to have a break last night as I didn?t get in the house until about 10.30pm and I was knackered after going to a showjumping competition (had to ride there for an hour, then back in the dark!) so that?s 3 of the best 5 days I?ve missed so far so not much chance of a BFP this time round.

milanomum · 02/09/2010 17:04

:) at you all trying to justify the madness! I think we've got a pretty good ethos going for people who would otherwise seem a bit mad are ttc-ing. I think we keep each other from teetering over the edge (or at least we teeter together with a glass of wine).
nelly and snowpea you guys are relative newbies...it doesn't count Wink

takethat Tell me about boob pokage! I used to convince myself it was because i was preggers but then i realised that i pretty much had them for the entire 2ww every month, but jey-sus they are sore this time round!

nomore your dh is funny - mine doesn't even know such matters exist. It's nearly friday though [excited face]!

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 02/09/2010 17:09

Gosh it's been quiet in here today. Must be all this sunshine that's going around Grin

Well went to bodycare to buy some hand cream and what do you know, as I was paying a pack of extra cheapie pee sticks fell onto the counter and into my shopping. Gosh darn it, what's a girl to to? Grin

BrassicaBabe · 02/09/2010 17:13

I've been bored working all day and it's def been quiet!

Nomore have you been practising your "name, rank and serial number" face for DH?! Grin

Are you testing tomorrow milano?

milanomum · 02/09/2010 17:18

no it's nomorechoc isn't it? I thought she said af was due tomorrow...

I think i'm going to crack next month if i'm not preggers this time - pee sticks might just fall into my letterbox...

milanomum · 02/09/2010 17:19

I've got 12 days to go...
