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 and adapted 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!

JIAC = Jizz in a Cup. Preferable to jizz on the carpet. This one's for the lucky men in our lives.

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!

Hello, can I join? I am a bit scared of the other threads with all of their mysterious jargon.

We hope to start shagging with intent (isn't that a much better phrase than TTC?) soon, but are waiting on some tests for DH. Both feeling quite impatient about the whole thing. I've stopped taking pills because they ran out and I couldn't be arsed to get more and currently awaiting first period following this. Actually had a burst condom the other day Blush DH is riding on me not being pregnant though because, in his words, "That would be kind of disappointing" Grin

BertieBotts · 28/07/2014 09:35

Oh and I have a 5 year old from a previous relationship but he was sort of a not quite accident, so I have never done the TTC thing before.

TabbyTurmoil · 28/07/2014 10:29

purple I'm so sorry Flowers glad to hear yesterday was a better day.

TabbyTurmoil · 28/07/2014 10:31

Welcome bertie, what are your stats?

DulcetMoans · 28/07/2014 12:57

Afternoon all! I'm back following trip to the states. Little bit jet lagged, but amazing trip. Ate way too much though - detox time! So much washing!

Welcome bertie!

Sorry about your loss purple, agree with the others - it's mainly about dating that they say to wait. Being ready emotionally is important and don't expect things to be normal. If just started first cycle since MMC and it's not the same experience as before at all.

minimooo · 28/07/2014 13:23

So sorry purple Thanks take care of yourself x

Welcome bertie!

Ages ago I booked a visit to a spa day and it just so happens to be this Friday, right in the middle of my fertile time, grrr stupid wonky cycles messed up my planning! I'm worried that the heat from the spa rooms will a) kill off all the soldiers and b) affect potential cell division/implantation etc. I'm going with dh's cousin I don't want to cancel and let her down.
So, me and dh talked about it the other day and have decided to take this month off trying. Bit annoying but also strangely feeling quite relieved to have a month off and JSing just for fun Blush
I'll still hang around here though if that's OK, and cheer you all on from the sidelines!

RPopz · 28/07/2014 13:44

Glad you had a good time Dulce Was wondering where you'd got to!! Memory like a sieve... Wink

BertieBotts · 28/07/2014 13:51

Stats? What kind of stats? I don't really know what I'm doing. I feel a bit daunted to be on a thread like this. I can't quite get my head around the fact that we're just allowed to stop using contraception and try to have a child. Possibly why I want to push for tests etc whereas DH isn't bothered and wants to get on with it.

fattycow · 28/07/2014 14:42

We had a good long shag yesterday. Nothing that will lead to a baby, as I was on CD4. Still, we had good fun and I like shags like that. Grin

fattycow · 28/07/2014 14:45

In other news, I got invited to a baby shower somewhere at the end of October, start of November.
I don't like the pregnant lady. At all. But I will go to keep peace with everyone, as she is friendly with a lot of people I know and it would cause to much drama to refuse.
The others are thinking of things to do and so far they have:

  • letting the pregnant woman taste different pots of baby food (yuck)
  • everyone 'designing' a baby onesie at home to present to the pregnant lady (means I need to buy decoration stuff for just this one thing...)
Lala5 · 28/07/2014 14:48

Hi bertie welcome!

Don't be daunted lovely, we're nice!

Stats - age, how many dc (or animals if you like if you have no dc), ttc for how long

Welcome to the Fred of lovely viroids!

fattycow · 28/07/2014 15:17

Ooh, a lovely thought just occurred to me! If this is my lucky round, I will be announcing my own pregnancy around the time of that baby shower! Smile

RPopz · 28/07/2014 15:19

Haha, as long as you don't do it at the baby shower Wink Wink How much do you dislike her lol...

RPopz · 28/07/2014 15:21

Hi Bertie!

Haha it is weird isn't it that you can just start shagging with intent without having to ask anyone's position! Me and DH felt like naughty teenagers even though we've been together a decade, married, working etc lol x

RPopz · 28/07/2014 15:21

Or permission even! Freudian slip?

ChatEnOeuf · 28/07/2014 15:32

You watch it happen this month, mini JS's very own law of sod

Welcome, Bertie jump on board Smile

RPopz that did make me giggle!

splodge77 · 28/07/2014 17:58

Ha ha position/ permission. Brilliant autocorrect! Hi Bertie.

BertieBotts · 28/07/2014 18:14

Ahh! Okay, here you go.

I've just turned 26. I have one DC (DS) aged five from a previous relationship.

laurenamium · 28/07/2014 18:41

Hi Bertie Grin

I'm finally on the JS bus! Coil is out and the doctor said he hopes to see me back to get it put back in in 10 months Grin so in the spirit of not upsetting the doctor and the newness and excitement of it all I will be jumping DP as soon as DD is in bed!

callipygian00 · 28/07/2014 20:21

Hi Bertie! Smile

Yay Lauren! Get that cape on!

No relevant news here - still twotting - but currently reeling from the fact that my boss's wife just talked me into making a birthday cake for her soon to be 7 year-old son! WHY DIDN'T I JUST SAY NO?!?!

Purplecircle · 28/07/2014 20:27

Evening viroids. Thanks for the TTC advice. I'm not ready to start yet. They didn't scan me, they did a preg test and it was bfn
Those 5 days were the happiest of my life.
The parallel between last Sunday and this was hard to deal with.
Been working at home today and it's been hard. Supposed to be working away tomorrow to Friday and I don't want to go

fattycow · 28/07/2014 20:31

Ghehe, announcing a pregnancy at the shower would be pretty bad, wouldn't it? Although it would be the perfect excuse not to go: I'm sorry, I can't go, I'm feeling really really tired as I'm pregnant myself! Fingers crossed for me getting upduffed this cycle!

fattycow · 28/07/2014 20:31

purple big hugs for you!

RPopz · 28/07/2014 21:51

Oh Purple love. You will have those happy days again. Try and focus on the positives - you know you can get pregnant now. And two miscarriages in a row is massively rare, most ladies go on to have normal healthy pregs after an mc. Did you have any time off work in the end? Perhaps you still need time and a rest to get your head round things. Hugs x

Purplecircle · 28/07/2014 22:07

I worked at home today. It's hit me like a ton of bricks tonight. I'm not working tomorrow, gonna take some time off and get myself back together. Text my boss and said I'm not ready to face customers yet. I was panicking about getting back on the motorway too. I'm going to have a duvet day tomorrow and then see how I feel
Thanks for all the lovely comments. Hope I've not upset anyone, I prob shouldn't be posting in here about this
