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!

My ROC is a mug with my name on [ grin]

Wilhelminanevillesdottir · 23/03/2014 18:02

Aw crap Zyla Thanks. Although I quite like the sound of chocolare. Sounds like posh chocolate.

Kat you can't pee on the really cheap sticks - you have to dip them.

Did you get it made specially for that purpose something? because that would be dedication to the cause.

I had a three course lunch 2 hours ago and I'm already thinking about what I can snack on tonight.

somethingwittynot · 23/03/2014 18:24

Course I did ;) well someone got it specially made for me ( unusual name) just not for this purpose Grin
But its just the right size and fits in my bathroom cabinet lovely. After its washed.

lala5 · 23/03/2014 19:07

At work my ROC is a plastic water fountain cup - try sneaky those into your handbag - noisy!

RPopz my Sanctuary b.bath is massive, but I've had it by the side of my bath for about 15 years so probably doesn't actually foam anymore.

Zyla booooo...ERTD....booo! Chocolate fixes all. Unless it's cooking chocolate, which does not fix anything (I discovered this earlier this week)

lala5 · 23/03/2014 19:07

sneaking not sneaky

RPopz · 23/03/2014 19:16

Sorry to hear Zyla :-(

I'm going to post a pic of my PPC when I figure out how so you can all see what your ROC has to live upto Grin

MissHobart · 23/03/2014 19:26

ROC - orange plastic Ikea kids cup! Grin Sits on top of the radiator on the bathroom so it's doesn't get used! Confused

Katgrant30 · 23/03/2014 19:52

I didn't realise you couldn't poas with the cheapies, Whilemina... I learn something new everyday !

I tend to buy the tescos own brand - £3.75 or so for 2... Didn't say anything about needing a cup? Oh well...

Sorry for the ERTD Zyla. I came on a day late a few days ago so am feeling your pain!

Another pregnancy announcement today too, from someone who had their first at the same time as us...

RPopz · 23/03/2014 19:56

I suppose you could just pee on them Kat but the really cheap ones are just a thin strip of paper, they don't have the plastic casing around them or the thick bit at the end to aim for. Its literally just the test strip.

Katgrant30 · 23/03/2014 20:15

Like litmus paper testing at school chemistry lessons! :)

Wilhelminanevillesdottir · 23/03/2014 20:25

oh RPopz I'm going to have ROC envy. Envy

ZylaB · 23/03/2014 20:45

I use the lid of an old hairspray can... But now I want to go find something more impressive for next month!

Nessalina · 23/03/2014 20:48

Love the variety of ROC! I use a little ikea Tupperware Grin

DulcetMoans · 23/03/2014 22:36

Yeah, I am disappointed in my ROC now. It's just an old cotton bud top lid. My one before was the pot that some promotional highlighters came in, but was an odd shape. I'm going to find something better this week!

lala5 · 23/03/2014 23:05

My other half has just said that women make getting pregnant far more complicated than it's meant to be. My other half is now weeping in the corner due to the amount of 'RRAAAAAAAAH' I just unleashed. Apparently according to him all we need to do is JS.

My god....how silly of us all...the answer was there the whole time.

Loving the ROC chat - Ikea tupperware appears to be popular. Loving the idea of a cotton bud lid - quite shallow, no? Perhaps I use a different brand. Other half also just questioned need for ROC - I've just explained about different brands and different lengths of time needed for peeing i.e. need for ROC. Think his head may be spinning slightly.

SOTM - who's it going to be?

ZingSweetCoconut · 23/03/2014 23:11

Let me know if your other half is starting an AIBU about "was IBU to say thay women make getting pg more complicated that need be" - public executions are rare these days!

Grin

he is a wally

lil1ady · 24/03/2014 00:03

a wally or brave? lol

well I use a green plastic cup. its quite big cos I'm not stopping once I've started! oh god mine sounds like a penis beaker ITS NOT!

OP posts:
ZingSweetCoconut · 24/03/2014 00:33

correction - he is/was being a wally

I'm sure he is not a wally all the timeSmile

MichonnesSamuraiSword · 24/03/2014 01:07

My ROC is a mini travel shampoo bottle

Anything non-bathroom related (such as a pineapple cup) in the cabinet would attract DPs attention and I would have to explain my
POAS obsession. I prefer to disguise the crazy.

Minion · 24/03/2014 07:31

Minion sings lils got a penis beaker, lils got a penisbeaker.

Wilhelminanevillesdottir · 24/03/2014 07:43

Mich I'm in awe of your fantastic aim. I can never cope with the urine sample bottles that you get from the doc so I'm impressed with the shampoo bottle.

Come on Lil, fess up to owning a penis beaker.

somethingwittynot · 24/03/2014 07:47

BFP today. Dont want to leave you lovely lot

aylesburyduck · 24/03/2014 07:54

I knew Mondays can't have been all that evil! Congrats something, stick around for a while till you feel safe enough to leave the bosom of the JSers. And tell us all about your symptoms so we can liv it through you!
