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 OPKs or temp charting. They are Contraband.

Happy shagging shaggers!

ooh we've crossed the 900 post mark, nearly full! how does setting up the next fred work? who does it and when?

Bearfacedchic · 24/07/2013 16:41

We usually wait until we get to the last ten or so and there's a mad scramble to do it because lots of people who've started the Fred have got their BFP quite soon after except me you just copy the rules across and put your own bit of jazz on them and make sure you change the links to the correct 'previous' and 'grads' threads.

lil1ady · 24/07/2013 18:22

beat I think you should start it again. some good luck to go with tomorrow's appointment Grin

lil1ady · 24/07/2013 18:22

that was supposed to be bear stupid fat fingers on phone keypad!

fifi669 · 24/07/2013 18:24

I agree, a bit of extra luck wouldn't go amiss eh?

EssieSaysRelax · 24/07/2013 18:30

Yes agree, bear should do the next fred. I've got chocolate pretzels (I know they're not everyone's bag but I love them!) for the coach. We could go to Leeds and see the boss, he's playing there tonight.

choc I dd biology a level too. Pretty much all I can remember now is the anatomy of the eye. Rods and cones and aqueous humor. Grin

I have done so much housework, I'm sweating like a beast. Mil, fil and sil coming to stay this weekend so I have to iron bed linen. Snore.

EssieSaysRelax · 24/07/2013 18:31

I DID biology a level. Idiot phone!

Alohomora · 24/07/2013 18:53

Ooh, I love choc pretzels, Essie - they're weird but really work for me, but I also like that Lindt choc with salt in it.

I did my oral exam for my Abitur (A-Level) in biology, but I don't really remember much. We did dissect a cow's eye in year 10 or so....

cookielove · 24/07/2013 19:05

choc I didn't feel pregnant, still don't! !
There is still hope

fifi669 · 24/07/2013 19:34

Have been really good for ages now, super healthy eating all week, letting it slip at the weekends.... Just bought a cake and two packets of chocolate digestive biscuits on the way home..... Oops.

I suppose all this TTC business does mean I need the extra energy.... Wink

Alohomora · 24/07/2013 19:41

I'm sitting here with a bag of counters and a coffee Brew .... oops? The choc is a big exception for me but I've been craving caffeine all week, whereas usually I avoid it as it makes me twitchy. But then, if you can't sleep it gives you more time to practice.

DulcetMoans · 24/07/2013 19:55

I love chocolate pretzels too! They were flipz in my day, think they are still called that in US.

Thanks for the encouragement downstairs and bear. I will get a grip of myself and wait another week!

Baby royal got a name then. I totally guessed George. Although I first predicted girl so not that good!

Writerwannabe83 · 24/07/2013 20:27

All this talk of chocolate is making me hungry Grin

lil1ady · 24/07/2013 23:31

I've got about 9days if the twot left too dulcet and downstairs hope I got right who that was

mmmm chocolate. but I'm a galaxy girl over cadbury. chocolate body paint to go with the cape perhaps viroids?

Redshoes56 · 25/07/2013 02:39

Agree, bear gets the next fred (and if I am still barren, I'll start the one after that). My appointment is August 15. Sounds like it should be pretty entertaining, two hours of talking about my hoohah and our sex life, plus: "The physician will look at the cervix and will check for any visible abnormalities. The physician will then perform a vaginal baseline ultrasound to obtain measurements of the uterus, endometrial lining, both ovaries, and a baseline follicle count. This is done by projecting sound waves, through a probe inserted into the vagina."

Send in the sound waves!

I am dying for chocolate. Or maybe a banana split Smile (And I do still think you can get Flipz here in the States.)

downstairs I am not feeling particularly positive about this cycle. Just perplexed. Would be a nice feeling to have to call and cancel my freshly minted appointment though. Just saying. Let's go law of sod!

lil1ady · 25/07/2013 07:23

Good luck with the appointment today bear. will be thinking of you.

Rockchick1984 · 25/07/2013 07:39

Good luck today Bear will be thinking of you Thanks

EssieSaysRelax · 25/07/2013 09:07

Thinking of you today bear xxx

EssieSaysRelax · 25/07/2013 09:22

p.s Glad its not just me with the choc pretzels then, hopefully that means they will keep selling them cos the flipz didn't last long in the UK did they?

ERTD due any day here. Tested yesterday = bfn. Got another camera up foof appointment next Weds cos my smear was inconclusive (I think I shared my trauma of the nurse not being able to 'find' my cervix last time). Hoping ERTD shows and gos before then because I don't want to have to put that appointment off any longer than I have to. As long as its all ok then I should then be able to go back to having normal smears. Albeit every 6 months for 10 years, but thats better than the stirrups and camera and bow tie wearing doctor with a head torch. Hmm

not a fan of choc pretzels, prefer just chocolate.

Does anyone on here take conception vitamins? I started taking pregnacare conception vits a week ago and my wee has turned bright yellow (think high vis jacket yellow),Blush just wondered if it was related and anything to be worried about?

Bearfacedchic · 25/07/2013 12:24

Hello. Off to appointment in a bit. I think mine is going to be a bit like yours Red. Confused Thank you for all the good wishes. I'll report back as soon as I can.

Don't worry about me starting the next Fred. Tbh I think I might be away on holibobs when it comes up so you might have to go without me anyway. Thanks for the thought though. Smile

Bearfacedchic · 25/07/2013 12:26

Have you had a look at the side effects on the leaflet Pizza. You can get that with high dosages of vit c I believe.
