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!

Congratulations Tabby!!

Thanks tabby I appreciate that.

I'm excited for you and Mr Tabs and the tabbies. Nice news to start the day!

That's 2 bfps in 2 days with luna as well.

congrats tabby & Luna x

Pisghetti · 08/08/2014 08:45

Congrats tabby ! Not faint at all Smile

Tee moving house is horrible and not at all horn-inducing. Hope your cape is easy to find once you're settling in!

BeforeIChangeMyMind · 08/08/2014 09:03

Congratulations Tabby
Congratulations Luna

First ever smiley! First ever smiley! This will be my one and only cycle with contraband, so let's see if it makes a difference. Added bonus, we DTD last night and when I showed DH this morning he jumped me again.

Then again, I have ovulation pain so kind of expected it. A smiley is not a BFP by any stretch. Twotting is going to be interesting this month, I 'd love another May baby though.

Sorry to hear about the diabetes Purple. I hope you get all the support you need to get it stablished. Thinking of you.

teejayem · 08/08/2014 09:12

Congratulations tabby! :D Loving the double BFPs!

Thanks for the sensible words ladies, I was feeling a bit sorry for myself last night, this week has just been skirtingboard painting, flatpacking hell, and I genuinely thought that I'd left my Cape in the old house, or packed it in a box somewhere..... I needed a bit of a slap and to step away from the wine bottle
Think OH has picked up on it, he sent me a text this morning 'Sorry I keep falling asleep, can we have it off tonight?' - bless!
In other news, hurrah for Friday!

DulcetMoans · 08/08/2014 09:33

Wow, what a flurry of postitivity! Congrats tabby and luna!

wilmabedrock · 08/08/2014 09:44

Congratulations Tabby!

I just read about some research in rats where they subjected them to stress during pg and the effects of this could still be seen 3 generations on. So I think any messing up of our cycles or tricksy pgs, we can all blame our great grandmothers Grin . But also it shows that stress can have a pretty big effect on things so I think moving house is bound to mess with your mojo Tee. Mr Tee sounds lovely.

Purplecircle · 08/08/2014 09:49

Congrats Tabby, lovely news xx
Fx Before. Get that cape on again :-)
Might be worth trying the buzzy thing after DTD too

KatoPotato · 08/08/2014 09:53

Tabby!!! Congratulations!!!

Stats please! I love pg stats!

Crotch watch for me today, AF not here yet on day 27, but has been here about 4pm on day 27/1

Lala5 · 08/08/2014 10:19

Ooh yes I love pg stats too!

Mr Tee text cracked me up!

could hooray for a smiley face Grin

Lala5 · 08/08/2014 10:21

Oh bugger sorry I meant before not could doh!

Another bit of good news - we've been waiting for market to pick up for 3 years to sell our place in Scotland. Just got offer on it for asking price and have accepted.

Happy Friday everyone!

BertieBotts · 08/08/2014 10:35

Wow that's a pretty strong line Grin Congrats! I wonder if he was expecting it to be just like the control line?

AF has finally arrived, unless it's spotting. Not sure which I'm hoping for, as I have a Gyn appointment on Tuesday. Not really sure what to expect. The doctor insisted that we get me all checked out to make sure Confused I've never heard of this in England.

I must say you bunch are quite knowledgeable for claiming to be Just Shagging Grin I don't even know what a luteal phase is. How do I find out how long mine is and why do I need to know? Do I need to know?

teejayem · 08/08/2014 11:26

Yeah, Mr Tee prefers to call Js'ing having it off.... (It makes us giggle - kind of thing I've not said since I was at school, not actually knowing what it meant.....)
I only know about my phases bertie from the Ovia App....

couldbeanyone · 08/08/2014 11:36

Congrats tabby!

wilmabedrock · 08/08/2014 11:48

I don't know too much about it Bertie but luteal phase is time between ovulation and AF -the TWOT basically. You probably don't need to know anything about it tbh, but apparently if it is short (i think less than 12 days but might have made that up), it can affect chances of getting pregnant. Assume it's something to do with implantation but don't actually know helpful. Lil will know though!

Lala5 · 08/08/2014 12:08

I've been reading lots about lp but probably lil knows lots more than me. It's the bit between icing and af/bfp so twot. During lp your uterine lining is building up to allow fertilised egg to implant. Longer lp gives more chance of successful implantation.

Lp less than 10 days means it's tougher for egg to implant. It's not impossible but it's difficult. 10-12 days is on short side and it may take longer for woman to get pg when ttc. Over 12 days is good, with 15+ days ideal. Mine is 10-11 which may explain both my spotting before af and how long it's taking for me to conceive.

Taking vitamin b6 and Agnes castus can lengthen lp by a couple if says, so now I know my lp is short (thanks to cbfm telling me I was icing much later than opks were saying) I will start to take b6 50mg to bump up lp.

Research is fun!

Lala5 · 08/08/2014 12:10

So although not upduffed just yet I can justify my naughty contraband use as I'd have blindly gone on JSIng at the wrong time of the month and wondering why nothing was happening. Will you let me off? Wink

teejayem · 08/08/2014 12:27

I'll let you off lala - my ninja contraband was purchased post bc because i thought I wasn't icing. Actually thought I had something horrible wrong with me the first time I eventually iced, the pain was as bad as appendicitis, but the Beaming smiley face on the wee stick reassured me that it was probably my egg trying to burst through my cobwebby ovary instead.
Any weekend plans anyone? Who's Caping?

lildottie · 08/08/2014 13:57

Bertie I have nothing to add re LP. My students have informed you well :) I would say you don't need to know it, but if you've been trying a while you may want to invest in some contraband to find out if that could be a problem. But beware, alot of GPs don't know leutal phase defect exists, or don't believe in it, so if it is an issue for you then be prepared for a battle.

When you've been ttc as long as I have you pick up a LOT of info along the way, jsing or not! although I should probably get kicked out as I never stopped temping, the control freak inside wouldn't let me!

Bertie Is your appointment to get referred? How long have you been trying? They do all sorts of tests on the woman before they consider fertility treatment. Men get away with just jizzing in a cup a couple of times!

laurenamium · 08/08/2014 15:35

Congratulations tabby Grin

Date night for me and DP tonight, and DD is away at the zoo with my mum, so I will be wearing my cape and disco pants tonight AND tomorrow morning Grin actually in twot territory so it's mainly just because its a shame to waste noisy opportunity!

KatoPotato · 08/08/2014 16:43

No sign of AF yet, but no symptoms of anything other than being so tired I can barely keep my head off the desk!

Not at all expecting a BFP this month, as it was spray tan weekend, but just hoping for a longer cycle than 26 days, which it has been for the last three cycles. Got my clear blue piss pots ready to take home to start filling and posting, and looknig forward to finding out when I do actually OV.

Positivity abound here.

lildottie · 08/08/2014 16:56

wow I really have been laid back this cycle. just went into my app and discovered AF is due Sunday... that twot went super fast!
