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 17 is here

Happy shagging shaggers!

no grad thread link sorry, can someone else add this please?

Ahhhh essie you'll see your bfp soon :)

bludgerwitch · 20/09/2013 15:25

dulcet DH, as always, has forgotten his mobile and he doesn't have a phone in the office, so he'll have to wait until he comes home!

My best friend knew I was hoping for news at the end of the week, and coincidentally she emailed a few minutes after I did the digi test, so I phoned her and we just had a nice long chat. I'm very bad at keeping exciting news to myself so I just needed someone RL to talk to!

Minion · 20/09/2013 15:39

Congrats bludger fab news!
Another BFP for the album.

I've been to Vegas a few times with work but this will be the longest stopover yet so, looking forward to it. Wish husband could come too though.
Tmi alert, EWCM has returned with a vengeance, so I assume it took approx 7 months to get back to normal after the pill. Husband is due home approx 4;15, so gonna get on it ASAP. I really don't want to have to be working Christmas day heehee. Do you think I'm too late? Ie, if EWCM is coming out does it mean I'm at the tail end of the icing? I still have the pain so hoping I'm bang on..

Congrats bludger

Still waiting for the evil red witch to arrive. 5 days late so far and 3 BFNs.

FurryScoob · 20/09/2013 16:52

Congratulations Bludger & fx for you Civic

Af's about to leave here, we've got the weekend off together for a wedding about the same time as ov this month so I'm off to buy some nice new underwear to persuade DP to leave the bar after the wedding!

Bearfacedchic · 20/09/2013 17:35

Hello! Been off for a while busy having a cold, working and having my HSG. And the news is my tubes are open and I'm all normal inside! Hurrah! I'm so glad it's good news. I wouldn't have been impressed if it wasn't as it was really painful for me. I know other people have it and say it doesn't hurt, but I was nearly sick with pain. The consultant even took my pulse to see if I was ok!

Anyway, lots to catch up on so off to read the last five pages it so.

Hi to everyone!

PrincessKitKat · 20/09/2013 17:48

Hi viroids, been catching up on your shagging news!

Bear, excellent tube news, but I'm sorry it was so painful for you. Hopefully a step closer to your BFP?

Furryscoob - that will give you something to do in the awkward lull between wedding ceremony and dinner!!

Bludger - congratulations!

Fx all Thanks

juniper81 · 20/09/2013 18:50

Congratulations bludger that's great news! And glad to hear all ok inside bear.

Commiserations dulcet, I'd also thought it was the month and AF is a bit early. It even started in a weird way which was like how people describe implantation bleeding! Grrrr! I got upset again this morning on the phone to my mum who then "cheered" me up by reminding me how long most of the women in our family have tried and we're talking years and years. Didn't really work! Ha. Having a Brew before going out for some Wine. Thanks for the kind words, it's so nice to have somewhere to talk about it all.

Am planning for the next JS'ing onslaught already. I hope DH is ready...!
Have great weekends all. xx

fifi669 · 20/09/2013 18:57

Congratulations bludger! Is this the start of a BFPathon?

Redshoes56 · 20/09/2013 19:16

bludger - HOORAY!!!!! I do hope it's the start of a BFPathon. Fingers crossed for civic! Who else is waiting?

bear I am SO glad to hear positive results from your HSG! And yes, it IS painful. I wish I could count myself among the women who say they have an easy-breezy time with it, especially as I have to face the similar saline sonogram next week. But we are tough, we can take it :)

I can totally relate juniper and dulcet. Outwardly did not get my hopes up but inwardly really wanted this to be the month we defied the odds, got the BFP and canceled the followup appointments. But ERTD pulled into the station right on time today. I was already feeling ill all day with a sinus headache and nausea, so the other unwelcome arrival I just packed up my desk at lunchtime and called it a day. In my pajamas now in bed. And I guess I can have a teeeeny bit of chocolate on my low-carb diet. Ahhh...better.

Redshoes56 · 20/09/2013 19:17

Should say WITH the other unwelcome arrival....

EssiesInvisibleLlama · 20/09/2013 19:53

Evening viroids.

bear lovely to see you and great news all parts are present and correct and no road blocks. That's ace.

Sorry for the ertds in attendance tonight though. Wine all round.

Fx for everyone waiting. I suppose I should count myself in the twot even though chances are slim after this weeks new. Still sperms are small so the gap only needs to be wee surely?!

DH is away so I'm watching crap on the tv and hogging the chocolate.

Do hope bluger has kick started the much needed bfp-athon! Surely all the sod tempting we've been doing is going to take effect soon?

There are people on tv spray painting actual poodles. Hmm

bludgerwitch · 20/09/2013 20:55

I'm going to continue hanging out here for a while, ladies, maybe I can be the bfp fairy?

I'm slobbing on front of the telly and buying PJs off QVC as I feel I am entitled. Grin Wine all around! (I have pomegranate in mine, though...)

EssiesInvisibleLlama · 20/09/2013 21:59

Yes, please do stick around, hopefully you might attract some other bfps!

ZingWantsCake · 20/09/2013 23:14

bludger

are you going to NC to bludgertheBFPfairy ?

let me see if I can do a fairy picture

Well, some Wine Winehas definitely been drunk. Not sure how it helps but it does.

DulcetMoans · 21/09/2013 01:10

Well today seems to
Be the day for answers either way. Sorry to red and juniper, stupid bodies! I had wine to as been to a wedding. Good dance has helped me feel better. Plus might get ERTD to pass through quicker. I find being active helps!

Actually googled fertility clinics earlier. Then felt silly.

Pick your poison, everyone! sprinkles fairydust, like BFP spores I'm on ginger tea for the moment.

BTW, I used pre-seed this month and I didn't use it in the other cycles, so maybe it does help if your foof is feeling unfriendly towards little swimmers.

AuntieMaggie · 21/09/2013 09:02

Congrats to those with bfps and hugs to those with other news.

How long should I lie in bed before giving in to having a wee after dtd? This making babies lark is messing with my brain Hmm DP has left the building and I'm led here legs in the air trying to take mind off needing a wee...

Where do I get this preseed stuff?

bludgerwitch · 21/09/2013 09:07

AuntieMaggie I bought mine off amazon!

Can't answer the other question, sorry, I was wondering the same thing...

juniper81 · 21/09/2013 11:42

auntiemaggie I read on another thread on here somewhere that women having IUI lie down for about 20 mins after the procedure and this has proven to increase success rates. I usually lie down for about 10 mins or so as lots of people also on here say it makes no difference! It's all so confusing.

We use preseed too which we got off Amazon. There's another brand called Conceive Plus which we didn't like at all.

My DH is not impressed by my lack of hangover! But that's the first time I've had a drink in a very long time so I think my body has decided to be nice to me.

AuntieMaggie · 21/09/2013 12:27

Ok looking on Amazon... whats with all the '9 applicators' bit?
