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 Envy 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.

The link to Part 16 is here

The link to the latest grads thread is here

Happy shagging shaggers!

Okay- just been researching into the small hours and I'm pretty sure now that my bleeding was icing. (Ovulation for any newbies!) I've got other signs like ewcm and positive contraband so it must be. Really hoping so anyway! Phew. Exhausted now. Night night.

Thanks alomohora and good morning to you cookie!

I have just woken and upon wiping, sorry if tmi, a teeny bit more brown stained discharge. 8 dpo so pretty sure this could be af??? Booo.. :(

downstairs I have no idea when I last ovulated. because of the miscarriage my cycle will still be messed up. Let's see if anyone can help me make sense of it:

6th HCG levels still up at 132
9th scan showed very tiny piece of 'product' remaining
13th negative pg test Smile
16th started spotting which turned into full blown AF a couple of days later and it lasted a week

been spotting on and off since af went (teeny tiny bit).

There's a big chance I didn't even ovulate amongst those dates but if I did I'd guess between 10th and 16th...but no idea what that means for this cycle

So confusing!Hmm

Bear, good news, hope you didn't stay up too late so that you are too tired for jsing!

downstairs could that be implantation? (I don't know much anything about the subject so I'm just speculating?)

pizza, were you fairly regular before mc? Hope your cycle settles down soon.

STILL no ertd here. Now 4 days late. Weird thing is though, I am pretty sure I iced 18 days ago and previous couple of cycles my literal phase was bang on 14 days. So something weird is going on. BFN again this morning though. Confused.com

God, we've all got to the important bits at the same time! Icing or testing all round!

I'm due today, tested this morning and BFN. I am usually quite regular (someone asked that below) so shouldn't be too long a wait if I am out. Although was like 6 days late last month so who knows!!

DownstairsMixUp · 29/07/2013 09:27

pizza I'd say your body is still just trying to settle back into it's normal pattern. I had a very early miscarriage earlier in the year and I had weird symptoms like that for well over a month. Even now my periods aren't "settled" as such, the cycle varies from 28 - 40 days and my periods can't decide whether they are heavy, light etc! But I defintely have ovulated since, maybe you should have some contraband near by as I think they help after M/C for comfort for yourself really, to see your getting back to normal business. Hope you're ok. X

essie I thought it could be that but then woke up this morning and yet more so thinking it's just the starting of AF. I'm trying not to be upset as it's my first cycle trying so I'd be a spoiled little witch if i whined too much! Just willing it go sod off now so I can BD on the next cycle :) I don't want to put your hopes up lots but if you iced 18 days ago, there's still a chance your pregnant? With my first LO i didn't get a positive pregnancy test till 20 days past ovulation. So fingers crossed for you!

bear, that sounds promising, you'll have a sleep deprived week ahead of you!

downstairs I came off Cerazette in March and my cycles are still quite doolally, you're right it is so tricky
to know when you're ovulating! In the first month I tried contraband but didn't get any decent results and the thought oh sod it. I do have the usual of symptoms, twinge left ovary and lots of fantasies about shagging Cardassians. (Wot?)

Hi quack

Aloho Cerrazette was awful for me, really messed my cycles up, think I non stop spotted the whole three months I was on it! But yeah your right, I think most pills totally mess with your cycle, I won't go back on them if I ever do fall pregnant ever again!

essie Yep. I have all my fingers crossed for you though! It's a horrible wait. I was kinda upset at the so called IB turning into a AF at first but i'm kinda like oh well, the TWOT is over now! At least thats one positive! ;-)

EssieSaysRelax · 29/07/2013 10:06

downstairs I hope you are right. I'm not going to test again until the end of the week. Trying to put it all to the back of my mind! Slight problem is that on Weds I have a hospital check up following the abnormal smears and treatment I have had in the past, but its meant to be done post ERTD which I would have been if my body wasn't complicated! ARGH! Going to phone them today and ask them what to do.

quark, yes, I do feel a bit like I am scaring my body by obsessing over it so it's got stage fright!

I have no idea what implantation bleeding is (I didn't know about ewcm til you ladies told me) I was thinking it was probably my period although a very light short one. My cycle has always been erratic and I came off the pill last month so I have no idea when anything should be happening... perhaps I need a biology lesson!

Report
DownstairsMixUp · 29/07/2013 10:14

essie def don't test till the end of the week, you'll more than likely just get false negatives and end up feeling more poo!

auntiemaggie implantation bleeding doesn't happen for all women but it's when the egg burrows in the lining and a small amount of blood can come away. Apparentely it's meant to be very light brown or pink in colour and doesn't last for more than like 2 days i think i read.

I was on the previous thread but didn't contribute much, just lurking - how many BFPs?! Smile

Been a crazy symptom spotting fool for this TWOT - im sure its all in my head. I think I've even convinced myself into uncomfortable boob pain, but will be POAS at the end of the week of AF hasn't shown up.
Anyone fancy a synchronised wee? It might stop me wasting a stick testing too early!

essie every time I ovulate I turn into a randy cow with a head full if sexual fantasies. Sadly they're not about my DH but about all kinds if fictional characters I've fancied since my teens - am a bit if a geek, hence this month the Cardassians. I don't even get to pick!

I spotted the first three moths in Cerazette but then had no periods at all while in it. Didn't have much sex drive either, and put in weight, but was otherwise fine. Have a history of depression so I'm glad it didn't trigger anything there. Had a pill break last year and cycle was 30 days on the dot so really annoyed it's so all over the place this time whn it actually matters!

Aloho- Who are the Cardassians? More explanation please.

Hmm Essie- all sounds rather spish to me. I think a BFP could be on it's way to you. yes, hopefully it's on its way. Smile

Fifi- you can get a BFP as early as 12dpo. If you dr Goofle clear blue pregnancy test positives how soon after ovulation or something like that it gives you a chart to show how many people got a BFP on which dpo.

Hi Quark- was wondering how you are?
