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!

Curiosity makes me want to google it but I know I will be scarred for life. Like that time I googled implantation bleeding...

Hope it's all gone well red. Positive vibes to you!

RPopz · 02/04/2014 19:53

Eurgh Dulce don't be putting ideas in my head!

Wil, its just a super fancy opk I think, it monitors another hormone along with LH so it tells you 5 fertile days instead of 1. Somehow. Another thing to pee on/ in basically!

ZylaB · 02/04/2014 19:55

The google image search is mentally scarring.... But I guess they say a picture's worth a thousand words....

ZylaB · 02/04/2014 20:00

And.. apologetic face I had good positive comments from my last visit to diabetic nurse so may have got the same contraband as RPopz which I started peeing on yesterday. It shows you a couple of days pre icing, then your most fertile time, so you can get some.. Erm.. Stuff up there ready I guess lol

Wilhelminanevillesdottir · 02/04/2014 20:08

Oh Dulce I've only gone and done it. Bleurgh. It's actually worse. Noone suggest anything else for googling.
Contraband sounds quite handy. Although I obviously don't need it now I am a secretions expert Wink putting it into Amazon shopping basket as I type

Wilhelminanevillesdottir · 02/04/2014 20:10

Oh and Zyla glad things are going well diabetes wise.

RPopz · 02/04/2014 20:23

Can you believe people actually take pictures of this stuff never mind post it online??!

Ebay Wil, s'cheaper ;-)

Wilhelminanevillesdottir · 02/04/2014 21:03

It's the descriptions too: re the CM: 'If you pull your fingers apart, it should stretch without breaking.' What? Ew. Sigh. I'm too immature to have children. Blush

ZylaB · 02/04/2014 21:07

Hehehee descriptions :p

DulcetMoans · 02/04/2014 21:17

So we are all ok with the piss stick photo site but not on board with the contents of knickers pics? It's good to have standards! Haha.

Got the drinking dilemma this weekend. Friends visiting, big night out, due Tues. some gentle drinking maybe, keep it low key!

There's contraband everywhere! Just a word of warning for those of you trying out the ultimate contraband - it doesn't always tell you the truth, particularly in the first cycle you use it so make sure you keep the JSing alongside.

Been hanging curtains with my mum today who was very disapproving of such activity in my "condition". I pooh-poohed her but of course, now I feel terrible. Time for bed!

RPopz · 02/04/2014 21:37

Dulce, I just took my folic acid with a glass of red so feel in no way qualified to advice!

That's good to know Juniper, thanks. I read it "learns" about your cycles which freaked me out slightly lol... Hope the curtains look nice!

RPopz · 02/04/2014 21:39

advise even

Redshoes56 · 02/04/2014 21:53

rpopz - I am completely in favor of taking vits with Wine! Especially today. I am glad I can always count on you ladies for TMI and a laugh. Very, very gutted after the only got TWO eggs this morning. Where the eff did they all go? What is wrong with me? The nurse walked away and I just cried and cried. DH was horrified, he had no idea how to help. I have so many questions now, but I didn't ask anyone at the time since I was all woozy from anesthesia and wanted nothing more than to get the eff out of there. So there's a little gray cloud over the Shoes household today.

I've done everything right this cycle. I took two friggin' weeks off of work so focus on this, to meditate, to go for acupuncture. For what? I know that these two could still be perfect and make great embryos (will get the fertilization report tomorrow a.m.), but the odds are certainly against me with only two eggs -- the worst cycle yet. I can't sit around and keep smiling positively when the world keeps giving me a big middle finger.

ZylaB · 02/04/2014 22:22

Oh red so sorry to hear it didn't go according to previous thoughts. My best positive thoughts are with you that the two from today are perfect and strong!

MichonnesSamuraiSword · 02/04/2014 22:27

Flowers for you Red I'm sorry it didn't go to plan, but two are better than none. Fingers firmly crossed for you xxxxxxxx

Wilhelminanevillesdottir · 02/04/2014 22:32

I'm so sorry Red. Keeping everything crossed for these two turning out to be perfect Thanks.

DulcetMoans · 02/04/2014 22:47

Oh red, so sorry it's not gone to plan. Hopefully these two can see it through though. More waiting for you now then. Bloody waiting! Wishing you good news tomorrow!

Oh Red Sad

Sending hugs and Wine

Fx for tomorrow, let's hope for superb embies!

lil1ady · 03/04/2014 00:08

red I'm going to be the voice of reason....stay Zen, stay calm, breath deeply. these 2 eggs were able to be retrieved because they were the bestest strongest ones there. and pretty soon you will I really hope be getting ready to have them implanted, so now you gave to ficus on keeping your uterus Zen! don't stress now, you've done so well and come so far. you can do it! its not over yet, you have frembryos too! xx

lil1ady · 03/04/2014 00:08

*have to focus

Redshoes56 · 03/04/2014 00:37

Thanks, ladies -- for the hugs and for the kick in the pants to pull myself together :) My uterus thanks you (returning to Zen state...after a pile of pasta and ice cream). Only a few more hours until bedtime, and then it'll be morning and I'll get the fertilization report. Hoping for the best! xo

MichonnesSamuraiSword · 03/04/2014 09:49

Thinking of you today Red

ohfourfoxache · 03/04/2014 10:47

How you doing Red?

Redshoes56 · 03/04/2014 16:09

I am impatiently waiting for the call from the lab! They say between 9 and 12. It is 11:07. So in 53 minutes I can really panic. I don't know if it is a good or bad sign they haven't rung earlier. Are they both duds or is the team making the "bad news" calls first? Holy mother of pearl, the waiting is brutal!
