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

Well ladies, today is the day when ERTD is suppose to put in an appearance.
Not feeling any different to how I've been for the past 2 weeks so reckon she's going to pull a late one again this month.
mrsAVB I now have images of hoarders of broody women rushing to YouTube to rewatch the Boob warble his magic upduff tuneage... turns on laptop

essie81 · 30/04/2013 11:44

Hi everyone!

JSing going quite well. Managing every day at the moment. App says I'll ov on Saturday but I'm trying hard this cycle to pay attention to cm etc and see if I can tell roughly when it occurs.

Still no sodding broadband at home. Over a week now. V annoying and DH having to work from home at a mates house today so he can actually log in!

Minion, fx and tx for you!

Get well soon lil.

MrsAVB · 30/04/2013 17:27

minion I now have images of crazy hoarders (like on those Britain's Biggest Hoarders programmes) with rooms full of broody women playing Boob clips Grin.
FX for your peeing...
High five on the JSing essie
Hope you're feeling less poo lil
Xxx

Minion · 30/04/2013 19:56

Are people who follow The Boob, called Boobies? boobers?

cookielove · 30/04/2013 21:04

essie what app do you use?

AndieDisestablishment · 30/04/2013 22:33

Hello Viroids!
I see new names and fresh BFPs. Lovely! Smile
Sorry I went AWOL, was getting a bit obsessed. Just thought I'd check back in and see what was happening.
I start my new job in just under a fortnight and have this nagging feeling that, as is Sod's law, I may have caught this month! Wouldn't that be typical?! So, ordered myself some tests from Amazon as a 30th birthday present to myself.lol
Hope everyone's well. Hi to everyone that's come along while I've been hiding.

Redshoes56 · 01/05/2013 00:23

Ha, yes rock - ?School?s out forever!? What a feeling!

Hmmm, so how long.... Off the pill for a year now. JSing for about 10 months. To be honest, yes, have used contraband here and there over the last maybe, 6-8 months. Not obsessively, but I?m sort of glad I have so I have a bit of a sense of what?s been going on if/when the day comes I sit down to talk to some fertility doctor with a million questions.

Because of the contraband my intellectual prowess as a newly graduated MBA, I can say with almost 100% certainty that I ovulate every single month! But where that egg goes when his little friends come swimming up to play, nobody knows?. Grin Maybe they?re not listening to enough Boob MrsAVB I love your story! How magical! And funny.

Andie, good to see you ? I hope you?re right that this is your month! Keep us posted.

Minion · 01/05/2013 07:32

Just like Duncan bannatyne, I'm out!
ERTD has shown her mug, but kind of thought she would today as when I got up for a wee this morning my boobs had stopped hurting.
Ah well.
Redesigning a new cape for spring as clearly the pimp one isn't working for me.
Maybe covered in faux grass and daisies with little toy sheep sewn onto it?
Hope everyone elses capes are a bit more magical than mine..
Afterthought... What if I just imprinted a huge pic of the Boob onto it?
Probably result in multiples. and heckling

AndieDisestablishment · 01/05/2013 12:36

Oh no, Minion, blummin ERTD!! I hope you've got lots of colouring pencils out for that cape redesign, I love colouring. Smile

Well, happy birthday to me, my pee sticks have arrived. I just PIADL (pee'd in a detergent lid) and got a BFN. Sad I'm convincing myself that it's because it wasn't FMU so as I have 24 more in the cupboard I'll do another in the morning (when I will be a week late by me but due by my app....confused!)

Red Hooray for finishing your MBA. Bet you're thankful that's out of the way now?

essie81 · 01/05/2013 16:56

cookie I use the originally named period tracker?! It was the first one that came up in the apps list that looked half decent and was free!

So the broadband saga continues and apparently we are not going to be connected until 15th May!! Very very annoying. You'd think we'd moved to the depths of no-where!

Sorry Minion that ERTD has shown up. Will you have those little toy sheep that go 'baaaa' when you tip them up on your cape? Could make JSing quite hilarious!

Andie got fx for you.

I am on ov week and predictably DH is now away for the night on a flipping conference. Will have to pounce as soon as he gets back tomorrow!

Minion · 01/05/2013 18:25

essie Fab idea! Lord knows we could use some laughs at the moment.
I'm having a weird AF, usually really heavy on day 1 with lots of cramps. Today, pretty light flow and the sorest cramps to boot... But you'd think with really bad cramps it would be heavy.
Confused much x

Totesamazeballs · 01/05/2013 22:06

Hi all,
May I join this thread please? I am TTC #2 but according to blood tests I didn't ovulate last month due to low progesterone, but my temp charts said I did so, screw it all, I have chucked the thermometer into a deep cupboard and am trying not to count the days too closely. No point anyway as my cycles are inconsistent and I suspect LP is 8 days.

This is my first month of randomly throwing myself at my DH.

lil1ady · 01/05/2013 22:51

hi everyone

feeling better thanks to those who sent well wishes. just can't shake this cough now.

Hi Andie happy birthday! loving that your present for yourself was pee sticks!

Sorry your out this month minion I was sure you were going to bring another bfp into thread thus week. I'm not sure about the sheep...you won't get Ur bfp if Ur dh starts counting them and falls asleep Grin

Red congrats on the MBA. what is it in?

Essie boo to the missing broadband. but maybe this is a good omen the house is bringing you... today missing broadband...next 9 months missing ertd? Wouldn't that be a nice house warming gift!

Well ertd has now left the building and I think I may be in need of a hooya. I'm already flapping about when will I ovulate, will I ovulate at all this "month", why is my body still so unpredictable 7 months on.....and so the list goes on. Do I sound like a nutter? I hope not. control freak yes, nutter no!?

lil1ady · 01/05/2013 22:53

Hi totes missed your post sorry. welcome aboard :)

Minion · 02/05/2013 07:19

lil hooya! And I too, thought that this was it. For gawds sake I was getting cramps and everything, what am I gonna be like when I actually am pg?

A warm hearty welcome to you to totes, now please tell us the design of your shag cape. I need inspiration x

Totesamazeballs · 02/05/2013 11:44

Hi all! Well my magical one has been stuck at the dry cleaners for ages so I am using its less fancy cousin, no bells, frills or anything I am afraid. I am thinking of turning the sewing machine on it though and doing a bit of embellishing. Think something summer related..beach balls?

On another note, I have an embarrassing question to ask, so here goes...

Regarding pant snot. So if, in theory, you DTD last night and then had what seemed to be the right kind of pant snot this morning, despite the fact that it is really early in your cycle...is the pant snot actually pant snot or is it something to do with errr...the snot that happens when you DTD?

It's all a bit perplexing and well, snotty panty. Confused

AndieDisestablishment · 02/05/2013 13:11

Welcome totes there are no embarrassing questions here! I think we've all asked this one at some point. DTD snot will be absorbed more by tissue but pant snot will sit more on top. Hope that helps? Also hope I'm right.lol Beachball embellishment sounds ace by the way. My cape is a rainbow one in honour of my favourite My little Pony.lol

BFN with FMU this morning. :( Not having my usual PMT though (flu like, spotty back, hideous cramps) so will give it another week.

Totesamazeballs · 02/05/2013 14:04

Thanks Andie. I will investigate at next toilet trip. Sorry to hear your BFN. It's so fricking frustrating to not know as soon as you DTD if you are going to be with babe or not. I will keep my fingers crossed for you.

Oh and rainbow was my fav my little pony too!

essie81 · 02/05/2013 15:06

Welcome totes, good question too and one I've wondered about so thanks andie for answer (and Happy Bday btw too). I'm supposed to ov imminently but cm doesn't seem to have changed. I'm supposed so be monitoring as I want to get some understanding of my cycle but currently nothing much to monitor and I can't be arsed with contraband yet!

Applejack was my favourite MLP. What was the baby dragon called?

Boring day here. No jsing as DH away with work on a team building conferencey thing, he's back tonight though but stayed up til 3am last night (or that's when I received drunken good night love text!) so won't be up to much tonight I doubt!

My new spring cape is going to be in a lightweight summer cotton (so easily washable!) with a hawaiian shirt type pattern on it. Grin

Minion · 02/05/2013 15:30

Applejack was mine too!
Apparently the difference between the ahem, leftovers and CM is that one floats when you drop it into water. I'm not entirely sure which one though.
Can't see me teaching that particular science expirement to the kids though haha x

Totesamazeballs · 02/05/2013 17:05

Blimey, no! I wouldn't even try that experiment at home!

I remember Applejack. I still have mine and the dream castle somewhere in the loft and now I want to get it out and play

Totesamazeballs · 03/05/2013 07:36

Gawd. Had stupid argument with DH last night and didn't get to sleep until four. Partly that and partly the fact that i had TWO coffees yesterday. I must be getting old - can't hold my caffeine! [ hmm]

Hope the sun shines on everyone today! I am off to slap a load of cold water on my face!

essie81 · 03/05/2013 10:00

Oh no totes sorry to hear that. Hope you are ok. Hate the feeling you get after an arguement with anyone. xx

My grandparents were involved in a horrible car accident last night and got airlifted to hosp. Both are stable, but looks like Gpa caused the accident. We've been worried about him driving for a while but he wouldn't listen to any of us. They are a 6 hour drive away and I feel so helpless and sad and guilty cos we've all been worried something would happen and now it has. Sad

Minion · 03/05/2013 11:00

Of god essie, I hope they are ok and not too shaken, sending lots of love and healing your way x

Totesamazeballs · 03/05/2013 13:25

Poor you and your grandparents Essie. I hope things aren't as bad as you fear. Good luck x
