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!

Happy shagging shaggers!

MichonnesSamuraiSword · 22/03/2014 09:22

At least you get all birthdays and Christmas out of the way in one mad busy time Something Smile

Wil I use 'Fertility Friend' to track ov signs, although it works best when temping, there's also space to note all other signs, and for the first month you get a trial of the 'full' paid app, which is great. Now I'm on the limited freebie app there's less space to note signs and symptoms, but the temping chart is v useful.

Before that, I used to write it all down on an old calendar. You could even use an electronic calendar (as long as it's not your work one which all your colleagues can see... that could be awkward!!). I found it really useful to look back and see a pattern of symptoms before ov and also before ERTD. It really helps rein in the crazy when you go "Oooh, oooh, sore boobs could this be a sign I'm pg?" then you look back at your calendar and see that you had sore boobs every month before ERTD.... been there done that

ohfourfoxache · 22/03/2014 10:03

Erm, ladies, can I ask a very stupid question?

I feel as sick as a dog. As in almost to the point of vomiting and it's coming over in waves.

This is not a symptom, is it? I'm literally 2 days post ?ov - I've got a bug, haven't i?

RPopz · 22/03/2014 10:11

Bug? Hungry? Any new food?

I wouldn't have thought you'd have symptoms so early but you never know! Really hope you haven't got a bug in anycase, there's nothing worse xx

lil1ady · 22/03/2014 10:12

fox I'm sending a mini hooya. I going to say bug. its hcg that causes symptoms and at 2dpo there wouldn't be any. although there are always exceptions to the rule, but I'm saying bug. feel better soon x

ohfourfoxache · 22/03/2014 10:53

Aw, thank you! I needed that!

DH has got a bloody cold as well, so we're both the absolute picture of health ATM Hmm

Might be a day to snuggle up with the cats..... Grin

somethingwittynot · 22/03/2014 11:22

fox people say you can get symptoms before implantation but i think you can. Maybe just all the hormone changes?

RPopz · 22/03/2014 13:55

So I am currently being held captive downstairs by an incredibly sloooow workman doing some joinery upstairs. There's a very real possibility I might have to PIAC (for comfort purposes only you understand ;-) ) In which case, it'd be rude to waste it, no?

Hmm
somethingwittynot · 22/03/2014 14:15

Do it Grin

RPopz · 22/03/2014 14:52

I'm not going to have any choice soon! crosses legs

RPopz · 22/03/2014 18:06

I dippy dipped! Neg predictably but as am only 3-7dpo I'm not too devo'd yet! Practise go ;-)

Thank god that joiner has finally gone...

somethingwittynot · 22/03/2014 18:08

Did you PIAC?

somethingwittynot · 22/03/2014 18:08

Ah your still in the game till ERTD or BFP shows

RPopz · 22/03/2014 18:14

I peed in a plastic pineapple cup I stole from a cocktail place one. I'm keeping it in the bathroom from now on as my designated pissy pot. PIAPPC.

MichonnesSamuraiSword · 22/03/2014 19:14

PIAPPC Grin love it!

Did you do this out of desperation downstairs while the workman was upstairs? What if he had come down and caught you in the act?!

Sorry its a BFN, but still early days yet

RPopz · 22/03/2014 20:04

We've had no bathroom door for the last few days so I had no option... plus I kept an ear out for him coming down the stairs! I'm not proud, but I have a miniscule bladder ;-)

Kinda wish I'd resisted cos I feel the teeniest bit deflated even though there's no real reason to yet. Going out for tea so that should cheer me up!

somethingwittynot · 22/03/2014 21:04

RPopz hardly anyone could see my line yesterday and loads of people ( im in a big facebook group) have said they can see todays one. Dont give up hope!

Wilhelminanevillesdottir · 22/03/2014 21:23

Aw That's shit rpopz. Hide those sticks woman!

something what has she done that she wants a pride of Britain for?

Hope you feel better soon fox.

I also want hooyad out of this funk I'm in. I seem to be having more pg symptoms than I had when I was actually pg. Feel constantly nauseous and at night it's really bad and have a dull headache all the time. These hormones need to piss off quick. I'm also completely over emotional and being a moany whingebag. Although did find out my bf is pregnant and past the 12 weeks stage which is happy news.

RPopz · 22/03/2014 21:36

Hidden Wil! I wouldn't usually test so early its just that I happened to have a spare cup full of pee... Grin

Not totally given up hope yet, but not feeling quite as positive as I was earlier in the month!!

Gentle hooya wil. Hope you feel better soon x

lala5 · 22/03/2014 22:26

Gentle hooya also wil I think you're allowed to feel shite.

PIAPPC made me laugh for the first time today - thank you! Such a shitty day today someone took out their Shit mood on me in front of loads of people.

Rpopz - still early. Mini hooya for you too :-)

DulcetMoans · 22/03/2014 22:44

Congrats something, have I missed an updated stick photo? We like them! Any tips for how you got there this month?

Where did this wee take place Rpopz?! Which room? I understand the bladder thing, mine is tiny! But I can't picture the logistics. Well done on getting it done though.

Back pain has thankfully moved aside and JSing has commenced. He's even promised he will wake me up for a seeing to after MOTD if I want to go to bed now. Romance!

somethingwittynot · 23/03/2014 06:37

So ERTD is due today. Another faint but pink line on the test this morning.

As to how I got here- lots of shagging lol. We JSed the 3,5,7? 8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15th I got ovulation signs on the 11th so on the 11,12,13,14 we did it twice a day. I had a pillow under my bum and I put my legs up the wall after Grin

somethingwittynot · 23/03/2014 06:43

Not sure if you can see here but I will put in on can you see a line to Grin

Its pink in RL the camera doesnt pick it up very well
