When's the best time to get pregnant? Use our interactive ovulation calculator to work out when you're most fertile and most likely to conceive.

You can do it by charting, analysing, testing, and worrying, but we prefer... JUST SHAGGING PART 20!!

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 with your fredmates where needed.

JSing lingo


ERTD = Evil Red Tide of Dooooooommmmmmm. Or AF to most others.

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!

Pant snot = Egg white cervical mucus.

Doing a kitten = Getting upduffed soon after joining (warning: may induce envy in other posters).

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.

Icing = ovulating. Another autocorrect development!

Getting your Cape on = planning some serious pouncing on DH/DP

TWOT - Two Weeks of Torture!

oooh oooh!!!! look how many posts were at!! nearly time for a new fred!!!

Think I may have overdone the exclamation marks a bit. Oh well! I am putting it down to the fact that thread 21 is just about to kick off.

whoop whoop Grin

JuniperJones · 23/02/2014 21:00

oh this lovely thread is nearly over! Sad
I did a "posh" test today and that was also positive which was nice for about ten seconds and then the craziness kicked in and I started worrying if the line was too dark (ie "too much" HCG)...Trying to keep it under control but bloody insomnia does not help!

On the legs in the air thing, I try to just lie down and keep still after for about 15/20 mins to give the spermies a chance to swim up, but not legs in the air.

Best of luck for this week minion and ness.

Good luck to TWOTters! xx

lil1ady · 23/02/2014 21:53

ooh that has come round quick! any objections to me starting the next thread? I'm hoping for some of the previous luck to rub off on me...ness if you could finish of the thread with a bfp duo with minion I reckon that'd help Grin

Nessalina · 23/02/2014 23:55

Go for it *lil - I'm happy to pass the responsibility over! Grin Still crossing everything that the thread-starting luck will have helped me this month!

Minion · 24/02/2014 06:54

Right, def icing late, opk says no today. Didn't get on it yesterday so I can guarantee myself out this month.
Bollocks.
All that effort.

Nessalina · 24/02/2014 07:47

Arg Minion that sucks!! Did you do a preg test today though? I wouldn't count yourself out yet...
I totally caved and POAS this morning Confused Am staring at preg test making up a line, so have posted on my new favourite website can you see a line! (Who got us addicted to this?!) - any and all judgements appreciated!!!
PS. I think I'm being mental. Also random confusing dark discharge today, day 22, 10dpo - wtf?

OP posts:
Minion · 24/02/2014 08:20

ness, no I'm saving that beauty for when it really is needed. So I'm probably going to have to add 10 or more days onto this month, go for another blood test as it has to be a week after OV, so I reckon it'll come out the packet in 2 weeks or so.
Your odd discharge sounds 'exciting', if discharge can be exciting that is! I'm off to look at your stick, brb.

Minion · 24/02/2014 08:22

I know what you mean, on the original one, I can sort of see a shadow, the invert and greyscale, no however.
I'd say, wait 48 hours yeah cause it's that easy and do again.
I hope it's a yes from pee!

aylesburyduck · 24/02/2014 08:26

c'mon lil

start fred 21!!! this will be the one where we get sprinkled with baby dust and have gorgeous bouncing babies Grin

aylesburyduck · 24/02/2014 08:27

Am gonna sit patiently and quietly in the corner...

-probably-

...while I wait for the new linkadinkadoo

MichonnesSamuraiSword · 24/02/2014 08:43

Ness It was me who introduced the addictive 'Canyouseealine.com' it's great isn't it!

I'm not sure about your pee stick if I'm honest - there does seem to be something on it, but on the invert I can't see anything. It's early though, so hang on in there and give it another go in a few days.

Your symptoms sound interesting....

Minion · 24/02/2014 08:46

I'm on a Fred roll now.
Just looked at opk again, another line. Not as dark as yesterday but there, and it was taken after a pee 30 mins before.
I couldn't see the line as only had the light of the iPad to shine on so I didn't wake snoring beauty next to me.
And I'm totally trying to tempt fate here but what the hell. I don't even feel like I'm going to ov any time soon.
Usually I can tell.
Nothing.

cookielove · 24/02/2014 08:52

minion fmu is best for poas especially if your doing it early!

ness its hard to tell but I think I see a very faint 2nd line! Poas again and show us :)

Minion · 24/02/2014 09:14

cookie, ai. I was just so bleedin' impatient. Haha serves me right!
I'll not be making that mistake in a hurry again.

lil1ady · 24/02/2014 09:18

Ok viroids, lets fill her up....thread 21 is HERE

DulcetMoans · 24/02/2014 09:18

I can't see much on there ness so I would call it inconclusive. I can see nothing when grey scaled or inverted but feel like there is something there when just normal photo.

Think you'll manage one more for luck lil?

Not ready for it to be another Monday. So tired. Always tired. God knows how tired I will be with a baby!

lil1ady · 24/02/2014 09:26

sorry dulcet you've lost me....one more?

ness I agree there us some sort of shadow but nothing on grey scale or invert. give it 48 hrs and try again.

DulcetMoans · 24/02/2014 09:53

Sorry lil, meant min to get one more shag in today! Got myself all muddled!

lil1ady · 24/02/2014 10:08

ahh that makes more sense. glad I'm off the hook!

Minion · 24/02/2014 10:11

He's buggered off out to work.
And I'm so tired I'm going back to sleep. Can you buy babies on the internet? I'm sure t hats a much easier way to do this thang!

I'm going to fuel the fires of the twot spot (symptom spotting), pee number 5 is just beginning to piss me off.

DulcetMoans · 24/02/2014 12:38

You must be able to buy them somewhere, and if you use a credit card you have all that protection if you don't like motherhood. Just send it back! I have a relative moving to China soon, thought I can ask him to get me one from there maybe. But then i'd have to tell him I was TTC...

If you nap now, you can get on it later min, yeah? Conserve your strength for now!

So, am on CD 17 which I think makes me around ov time, might have happened yesterday, who knows. Anyway, does that make it pineapple time?? or is it slightly too early you think? Still at the shagging, just in case.

Minion · 24/02/2014 12:53

2 hours later she wakes up. Oops.

If it wasn't completely illegal I'd start an online baby bizness!
Babies to you!
Babies to go!
Pick your own sprog.com?

DulcetMoans · 24/02/2014 14:29

Well babiesRus is taken so we need something different... something memorable! 'Bargain babies' - doesn't sound like quality though. I'll go with Babies2You?

I wanna be at home so bad. Fresh sheets. Can't wait!

Eating pineapple by the way... apparently a 5th of this packet is 1 of my 5 a day. I intend to eat it all!

JuniperJones · 24/02/2014 15:31

I like the sound of Babies2You! Sounds swift and efficient, much better than the standard process. Wink

Are we filling up this thread? I am itching to do some ramble-wambling about nothing, today is not very interesting.

DulcetMoans · 24/02/2014 15:35

Yeah, lets fill it. My productivity has taken a proper nosedive so I need distracting!

Shall we fill it up positively? How about, small things we are grateful for? Like my clean bed I mentioned just now. Fresh bed to get into. Love it!
