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 and with your fredmates where needed.

JSing lingo;

ERTD = Evil Red Tide of Dooooooommmmmmm. Or AF to most others.

Pant snot = Egg white cervical mucus.

Doing a kitten = Getting upduffed soon after joining (warning: may induce in other posters).

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!

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 opk's or temp charting. They are Contraband

Hello Wingdefence ! So good to hear that you have your beautiful baby now and thanks for all the encouragement. You are the first Just Shagging success story I know of, which is amazing and I really hope your tips work for the rest of us. Hopeyou have a wonderful time loking after your new addition.

Happy Easter everyone else! [busmile] Hope you all had a lovely weekend.

I don't think it matters too much with the whole 'backwash' thing. [bugrin] Even after the backwash, there's still some left up there IYSWIM as it comes back down later, so I'm never too bothered, but maybe that's why I have no BFP! [bugrin]

cookielove · 02/04/2013 22:39

Hello all, wingdefence ahhh a new baby. Lots of snuggles to be had!! Congratulations Grin

Hello hello hello twas my birthday today, still don't feel old yet Wink

essie81 · 03/04/2013 08:48

Happy belated birthday cookie! Flowers for you.

Bearface · 03/04/2013 09:52

Happy birthday, Cookie! Wish there was an emoticon with a party hat - in the absence of this you'll have to have Wine instead! Grin Hope you had a lovely day and got spoilt rotten.

notsoold · 03/04/2013 10:19

cookie happy birthday!!!! lots and lots of cake and may the sun shine always on you!!! xxxx

bear totally agree with you regarding "bachwash".

have a wonderful day ladies and now I am going back to my lurking cave .xxxx...

Redshoes56 · 03/04/2013 15:37

Popping in .... Happy Birthday, Cookie! I have a lot to catch up on. Big wave to new folks!

cookielove · 03/04/2013 16:28

No one celebrated my birthday at work today, we usually put up banners and balloons around the time of someones birthday and they get a gift (we do a collection) and a card from everyone!! And they've done nothing, i haven't mentioned it cause they always forget and i feel i nag so i thought i would give them the benefit of the doubt, but nope still nothing and my shift finished in 2 minutes. I am Sad Dh says they are shit, he says all the right things.

essie81 · 03/04/2013 19:09

Oh cookie sorry to hear this. My birthday passed unnoticed at work last week too, but then I work almost entirely with men so they do have that as an excuse!!! Hope you are ok and DH made up for it. He is right they are shit.

I've just found out were going to the outlaws this weekend Hmm. Ov day is about Sunday/Monday ish so I'll just have to pack my new cape! Gives me the creeps dtd under the same roof as them. Dh thinks I'm neurotic.

cookielove · 03/04/2013 19:17

It wouldn't bother me to much if nothing was usually done, but for every birthday we put up banners, balloons, a card goes round the nursery for all the staff to sign and the rooms make cards from the children for the birthday person, and i was off yesterday so they could have set it all up. But there was nothing, i don't know why but they always forget my birthday and its rather upsetting!!

frogchops · 03/04/2013 20:36

Oh cookie that's horrible. I work in a similar environment to you, the place is full of women....lots of which aren't very nice! There's usually cliques of people that would never be forgotten on their birthdays! Go and get a bfp and hopefully you won't even be there next birthday!! X

MrsAVB · 03/04/2013 20:57

Hello! May I join you? You seem like lovely ladies with no scary thermometers and acronyms...?
Am 30, have been JSing since September 2012.

cookielove · 03/04/2013 21:06

Hello MrsAVB nice to meet you Smile

frog a bfp would be the best, i would give anything to see two lines Grin

frogchops · 03/04/2013 21:17

Haha... Mrs avb.... Not scary at all, but they do have a cave, a unicorn, a communal crown and wear capes :-/

Rockchick1984 · 03/04/2013 21:19

Aww, sorry they missed your birthday Cookie Sad

Hi MrsAVB - Spurs fan by any chance???

Same here as Wing re the JSing during the 2WW - I was trying Sept-Jan and stopping when I thought I'd ovulated - Jan we carried on and got BFP in Feb... Definitely keep the capes on longer ladies!

MrsAVB · 03/04/2013 21:34

frog I think I am more open to capes etc than I am to thermometers... sounds like way more fun. Can I wear my pants on the outside too?
rockchick not so much a spurs fan as trying to embrace handsome ginger role models resign myself to ginger babies

Rockchick1984 · 03/04/2013 21:55

Nooooo, no pants outside OR inside, you can't shag in them!!! tries not to imagine 1960's batman having sex FAILS :)

My DH is a Spurs fan, I put up with watching the matches since AVB took the helm there - he is a yummy ginger...

Hi all.just checking in. Af has gone so free to js. Managed last night but dh has come down with a vomiting bug overnight so this may rule me out this month. Hopefully its just a24 hour thing...

MrsAVB · 04/04/2013 08:27

Morning all!
rockchick Am not sure I can fully sign up to no pants at all... It's WAY too cold atm. Seriously, has no one told the weather it's April? Pfft...
Any attention I pay to anything football is generally linked to whether there are nice looking boys on the pitch...

essie81 · 04/04/2013 09:50

Deffo too cold for no pants, brrrrrrrr. Tights, pants, thermal vest and a fetching knitted cape being deployed here today!

DH is tennis mad. I can't usually get that excited about it on the TV but there is a new tennis player who caught my eye last week, Grigor somethingoranother? Yummy!

Minion · 04/04/2013 10:36

Morning girls, minion joining.
I'm on another Fred I started but hubby quite rightly pointed out I'm starting to obsess already so am looking to JS till the sun comes out!
Started to TTC 1st jan, thought I was oop duff last month then ERTD showed her ugly mug, currently on CD3 and raring to go!

MrsAVB · 04/04/2013 10:49

Shortly after my last message it started snowing... Grr!
essie I am with you with the knitted cape. I feel that the fleece top I am currently wearing in bed (known as "that horrible thing" by DH") is acting as a contraceptive.
My massive obsessive teenage crush was on... err... Tim Henman...

HumptyDumptyBumpty · 04/04/2013 11:56

Hello wingdefence and congrats! Great news!

cookie so sorry they were totally rubbish about your birthday - if it's any consolation, the same happened to me last year. I always organise a card and cake, and mine was totally ignored...Hmm

essie I find DTD at 'rentals or outlaws creepy as anything. You are not neurotic. What if they HEARD? Ewwwwwwwwww

at Mrs AVB and Minion - hello hello!

coffee hope you feel better. Hugs and chocolate to everyone I've missed.

CD 34 here, no ERTD, a few faint brown stains on wiping (TMI, sorry, Blush), but BFN on CD30. May PIAR later on... Never been this long before.

Minion · 04/04/2013 11:58

< waving back> hi Humpty!

AQuarkTooFar · 04/04/2013 12:30

Hi essie, minion and Mrs AVB lotsa newbies to keep this place going!

Humpty that sounds exciting! Fingers and toes crossed for you!

Happy belated birthday to you Cookie!

I am in my ov week accoirding to my app so me and dh are happily jsing away. I had my first weigh in this morning for ww online and I have lost 4lbs! Grin. So worth it! I am just thinking of it as every pound I lose is a step closer to getting a BFP!

On more annoying news. Was out on site at a meeting with a work colleague this morning and the whole way there and the whole way back I got to hear about all the prep him and his dp are doing for their baby due in a month! Envy.

MrsAVB · 04/04/2013 15:18

Hi minion, humpty, quark and anyone else I've forgotten...
My approach to "dieting" while ttc:
AF week: poor me, I have AF, my tummy hurts, I'm sad
Shag week: oof, all this shagging is exhausting, I need more energy
2ww: ooh, I might be pregnant, bean will be hungry
