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

Happy shagging shaggers

Hello to MrsAVB and Minion - welcome, welcome!

I'm freezing my tits socks off here! How's everyone else? I don't know about knitted capes - I might need a full knitted onesie, crotchless of course.

Well done on the weight loss Quark! Annoying about the colleague wittering, but I have to say, I can't promise I won't do the same myself if and when the time comes. Hmm

Sounds promising Humpty - when do you think you'll PIAR?

MrsAVB · 04/04/2013 15:26

avoiding looking at bear's crotchless onesie, then marvelling that onesie is in the iPad dictionary Hi!

MrsAVB · 04/04/2013 15:26

Darned formatting grr...

Minion · 04/04/2013 15:29

Haha, PIAR. My receptacle of choice is PIATAD, pee in a take away dish! Cheap and you get a meal with it.. Eaten before obviously.

essie81 · 04/04/2013 15:57

Hi everyone.

Haha! A knitted crotchless onesie, what an appalling image that conjures up!

CD10 here. Trying to not really think about when ov takes place and js lots between now and ERTD. Inbetween that time however we are also visiting the inlaws for 3 days, DH is away on a stag weekend and we have the small matter of us moving house too. Think this cycle is probably a write off but we'll do our best! Must remember to pack cape knitted crotchless onesie in accessible box for continued use during house move!

Humpty got fingers and toes crossed for when you next PIAR!

HumptyDumptyBumpty · 04/04/2013 16:32

MrsAVB I have the same approach to dieting. It's a wonder I'm not Cindy Crawford...
bear, crotchless onesie is truly a revolting brilliant invention.
Quark woop for 4lbs, that's ace! I just didn't eat a choc biscuit that's been calling me, in honour of your achievement. Wittering is annoying, but you will have license to do the same when you get your BFP.
essie good luck with the move - new house, new person, fx!

I might PIAR/TAD tonight, prob wait until morning to get FMU though. Thanks for the fx everyone, have convinced myself it's just late, due to the very faint signs of ERTD, but we shall see.

MrsAVB · 04/04/2013 16:51

Good luck with the PIWCIC (peeing in whatever container is closest) humpty, fx!

cookielove · 04/04/2013 19:30

Fx humpty!!

Hello newbies

frogchops · 04/04/2013 20:31

Haha PIATAD!!

On the actual bfp event I PIAWPP peed in a washing powder pot. The one that comes with the powder. It was the only small pot deep enough to take my posh 'only open in case if strong bfp suspicion' test.

HumptyDumptyBumpty · 04/04/2013 22:26

I have a WPP. No posh test, but I may go to Boots tomorrow...

Redshoes56 · 04/04/2013 22:54

Humpty I am anxious to hear the results of your POAPS (pee on a posh stick). Pee! Pee! As far as I'm concerned here in N.J., it's almost tomorrow already in the U.K. Grin

Cookie your DH is right; coworkers are total shit for missing your birthday. Did they make up for it yet? Hope you had lots of cake.

And totally agree, essie, you are NOT neurotic, I won't do it in my own parents house, never mind his. Yuck.

I LOVE seeing the thread so full of life again! Cheers to all the fabulous newbies Wine

I am feeling like a huge cow lately, I need to shed some weight. I know the extra pounds aren't doing me any favors, fertility wise. It's just so hard as I truly love bread, and cheese, and booze....

Otherwise, things are fairly quiet here at Chez Shoes. We are doing a quick getaway to Connecticut next weekend for a nice dinner, Muse concert, and casino night. And plenty of JSing.

Officially in my last MBA class, and I am so looking forward to being completely done. Thinking a BFP would be a very nice graduation present! Come on, universe! I have been so stressed, DH thinks that once I put the books away, I'll get pregnant right away. We shall see!

Minion · 04/04/2013 23:00

Ooh a lovely little grad shag to get things started!
Good luck

MrsAVB · 05/04/2013 08:38

Morning all! Its F-f-Friday!
humpty FX and TX (toes)!
shoes cheers back, although a little too early here for Wine, not sure my boss would improve! Enjoy muse, am jealous. And totally agree with no JSing in anyone in the family's house [why is there no vomit face]
Today is the day I get back on the my fitness pal wagon. Now, why isn't there a JSing option on the exercises? Cleaning is on there FFS...

MrsAVB · 05/04/2013 08:40

approve damnit... Must've been that Wine Although I would like her to improve...

Bearface · 05/04/2013 09:39

Ha ha - sorry about the crotchless knitted onesie thing! You know you'd want one though . . . Grin

Humpty - what's the news?

Cookie - That's quite dim of your colleagues, but I guess it's possible that they don't know when it is if it isn't on a calendar or something. I often forget people's birthdays simply because there's so many of them to remember. This year though, I bought a birthday book so that I could write them all down and yet, I've still managed to forget one person's!

Definitely no JSing in anyone else's house except my own. Hotels and B and Bs are okay, but nowhere else. Ewww - esp in-laws. Imagine if they heard, or worse, walked in!!! Shock

Well done Red on getting through the MBA! Wine Hopefully that BFP is just over the hill and round Stress Corner.

essie81 · 05/04/2013 10:49

Re going to the inlaws, as previously mentioned, this jsing business is occasionally a bit erm, messy Blush? Whilst every effort is made to prevent spillage, the prospect of MIL changing sheets afterwards makes me almost turn inside out with cringyness (yes that IS a word, especially if onesie is now an official word too!) and that thought will act as a contraceptive all weekend without doubt! Still I can enjoy lots of Wine instead!

Red super news on the MBA! More time for JSing now!

Humpty still got everything crossed and struggling to walk and attracting strange looks as a result.

Eating healthily is going badly here. But once the easter chocolate is gone, then its gone and it is very nearly all gone. I have managed not to drink any alchol all week, and I've taken my vits every day and I've eaten fruit. and cake, and chips, and lots of easter egg.

Have a super weekend everyone!

Minion · 05/04/2013 11:08

essie cake has milk and eggs in it, which is so good for bone development, chips are carbs needed for JSing, much needed and Easter egg is religious and chocolate, Faith and endorphins... No woman in their right mind wouldn't be doing the same!

HumptyDumptyBumpty · 05/04/2013 11:36

essie - agree on the 'mess' front - we carry babywipes to 'catch' mess, IYSWIM, could help? Obvs non-perfumed ones, don't want to make lady parts unhappy.

I didn't have time to PIAR/WPP/TAD this morning - v late for work. Still only faint brown smudges (ewww, TMI), might treat meself to a POSH pee stick at lunch. Since it's the weekend and all. Will keep you updated - don't want people struggling to walk from crossed limbs! xx

coffeewineandchocolate · 05/04/2013 13:50

Damn this bug! Our fertile window starts tonight and dh is away next week. Both of us feel rubbish and jsing is the last thing on our mind...

cookielove · 05/04/2013 17:16

Red yes my work colleagues have made it up to me, i got given a giant strawberry cup cake Grin and i've just polished off my last french fancy Blush

Bear there is a huge staff birthday board in the staff room so nope they can't really forget!! But they didn't actually forget my birthday they forgot to do the special stuff we do for birthdays.

I feel like i keep going on about it, but its all actually ok now, they totally made up for it and now its all good in the hood Smile

Dh have failed alot in our jsing as we've both been so tired Smile

Redshoes56 · 05/04/2013 21:17

Humpty surely you've had time to pee on something by now???

HumptyDumptyBumpty · 05/04/2013 22:36

Nope. I think ERTD has arrived - went from little bits of brown to more reddish. And I am freezing - always an ERTD sign. Sad

cookielove · 05/04/2013 23:53

Sad humpty

Redshoes56 · 06/04/2013 00:40

Ohh, not nice Sad

HumptyDumptyBumpty · 06/04/2013 11:46

Thanks cookie and red - I was really really disappointed. Thought it was my time. Oh well.
