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!

The link to Part 25 is here

The current Grads Fred is here

The rather nobbish article in which we became a little bit notorious is here

Happy shagging, shaggers!

BertieBots you made me lol. Grin

Speaking of tmi, after we DTD tonight i elevated my pelvis on my pillow for a bit. DH must have used more lube than normal, there is a wet patch on my pillow! (Guess it ran down my crack?!) Blush I just flipped it over! I'll change it tomorrow! Grin

Leela5 · 18/08/2014 23:05

Jeez I go to the cinema and you all start comparing mucus! Grin

kato sounds like ewcm, have you see the frankly puke making photos on baby centre of the differences stages of pant snot?

lil squishy cuddles are amazing, I got to cuddle my friend's 4 month old on Sunday. So cute til he started wailing not my fault honest

Temping is really interesting although obviously contraband I knew ertd was coming last month coz it dipped, that's why I gave up hoping just before witch came

I'm afraid I should really be kicked off this Fred, I'm terrible. But in defence I didn't use any for 7 months which is why I had no idea I ice late.

My temp goes up and down and I get a surge before the real surge

Leela5 · 18/08/2014 23:07

honey I have my pillow under bum as we speak - dh long gone I'm elevating now more coz I can't be arsed (ha ha!) to get up

Leela5 · 18/08/2014 23:08

kato sounds like perfect timing last night!

Can you do it again tonight to be sure to be sure?

KatoPotato · 18/08/2014 23:14

I quite enjoyed getting a sleep then a shag then a Sleep again, also was a bit fuzzy like we were a bit drunk... I'm going to be a sleep creep again! And this fits perfectly with my plan to cover CDs 10,11,12 I made last month!

BertieBotts · 18/08/2014 23:15

One of my friends got really into temping at the same time as I was looking at it too, she knew she was pregnant before the BFP because her temperature pattern had changed.

I need to go to the chemist tomorrow to buy toothpaste and dental floss. Nobody would mind if I picked up a thermometer I'm sure? I need one just in case DS ever has a temperature, you know. Definitely not going to play with my app

BertieBotts · 18/08/2014 23:17

Sleepy sex is really nice. Obviously as long as you're into it. But when you are it's lovely. Really dreamlike and no annoying thoughts getting in the way making you worry about your legs or whether you really ought to be doing this because there are a million other things that are more urgent.

KatoPotato · 18/08/2014 23:19

Absolutely bertie think this could be the way forward!!

Leela5 · 18/08/2014 23:19

You need to get a basal one it's more sensitive. Not advocating contraband of course oh who am I kidding My life revolves around my frigging stupid gadgets these days

BertieBotts · 18/08/2014 23:21

Any idea what that is in German? Grin

Leela5 · 18/08/2014 23:29

Just looked it up and actually both words are the same!

callipygian00 · 19/08/2014 00:27

Kato did you see the lovely guide to cm that somebody (sorry, I forgot who) posted before? I found it pretty helpful. Gross though.
www.babycenter.com/101_what-cervical-mucus-looks-like-through-your-cycle_10351429.bc

Anyone use fertility tracker apps on their phone? Just started using Ovia, finding it pretty useful to keep track of cycle days/what's happened when/how many days left til AF (poor memory).

honeysucklejasmine · 19/08/2014 06:43

Thanks for the link callipy, really interesting. Can't say i get all types, but i do get ewcm so that's all good!

I'm not sure this temping thing is for me. I don't want to wait months for a pattern, i'd rather just shag every/every other day. I am the least patient person i know. maybe in the future if AF keeps visiting I also don't think I'm human... Still 35°C, I should be hypothermic!

Anyhow, my ewcm has all gone now, so i guess the icing has passed. My uterus twinges a bit. good sign? Now i shall be tortured by waiting until Sept 1st to see if AF turns up.

I never considered myself lucky with my cycle until recently. My cycle is only 27 days, like clockwork. However, I have pretty severe endometriosis on my lower uterus exterior vaginal walls, ligaments, bowel cavity, every bloody where so a short cycle has been the bane of my life. I have huge respect and sympathy when people talk about a cd40 or the like. You girls are heroes. Flowers

ChatEnOeuf · 19/08/2014 07:34

Morning contrabanders viroids. Missed a treat what with the time difference last night! Confused It's certainly not for me, I'm far too lazy - JSing for us all the way, if we go a bit beyond the ice and into the TWOT I shan't complain.

I used to tricycle and some the COCP to help me miss out on some of the joys of endometriosis honey. Fainting every month was such a PITA...thankfully this year hasn't been so bad, but I've probably only had about three normal cycles.

gaggiagirl · 19/08/2014 08:14

Morning viroids!

calli I use a period/fertility tracker app its marvellous.

Im on CD2 cos the witch got me. She's a heavy cow this month too. Fat bitch!

rm00054 · 19/08/2014 08:17

Callipy I've just started using Ovia too. Not sure how many cycles I need to use it for before it becomes accurate, I've only been using it for 3 weeks so far. It is helpful though. Saves having little shorthand in my main calendar!

AF shall be arriving tomorrow (I get warning cramps the day before her arrival!) so I'm out this month. Bring on the Wine

lildottie · 19/08/2014 09:05

well i missed a hellofa convo last night. i would just add i get the "lump" ewcm on icing day so sounds goid kato fx for you.

I couldn't get on with ovia app. I use fertility friend. nothing to do with the excellent contraband parts

in my defence I was a scientific nightmare about my cycles before I joined this thread. that was why I joined, and I am now much better and calmer about it all. I only temp from about cd10 until it confirms icing then I stop. I can't deal with not knowing when I'm due control freak so couldn't bring myself to stop completely.

lildottie · 19/08/2014 09:06

oh and RM cramps don't mean you are out. if I had a £ for every viroid on here who'd said cramps I'm out, then got bfp I'd probably have at least a fiver Grin

patientlywaitingformymiracle · 19/08/2014 10:25

lil you're temps sound a little like mine hurrah I'm not as weird as I thought...

It was 37.2 this morning!! could have been due to waking up with a kitten draped round my neck HOPING I iced yesterday ... dtd every day last week and last night just to make sure :) out of interest I felt rather fluey and hot faced yesterday (which is v. unusual for me) ?? sign of ovulation?

honeysuckle I have only just started having temps above 35.2, I was starting to think I was constantly hypothermic... I too was against the whole temping thing, was all for a nice romantic baby that was born from us wanting to shag each other .... then it got to CD 90 and I wanted to find out what the hell was going on with my body and got really tired. I guess control science just has to creep it's way into my life in all areas.

CD124 and we have shagged every day for the last 2 weeks. My bloody sister got upduffed from a one hit wander! Envy

oh and kato -- I don't think I've ever had proper EWCM but I do get a lot more cm in general making an appearance in the knicks after exercise. It sounds good to me - go get your cape on!

minimooo · 19/08/2014 11:10

morning viroids! I've been a crap about posting lately as had family in hospital, so been a bit all over the place this last week. All caught up now (congrats lauren!)

kato that sounds like ewcm to me too. Perfect cape timing!

calli I use Fertility Friend really useful for storing contraband results

I need a massive hooya! I'm 13dpo today and stupidly poas on an internet cheapie this morning. Within 1 minute it was completely negative so I shoved it back in the packaging, threw pee sample away in a huff, and did usual morning routine etc. About 10 mins later (so prob about 10 -15 mins after taking the test) I looked at it again and there was a second line. It's very faint but I think it is pink in colour. It is probably just an evap line isn't it? Or invalid test because of the timeframe? Please talk some sense into me, my mind is going into overdrive!

jellypi3 · 19/08/2014 11:17

Morning :)

I'll send a hooya your way Minimoo but also fx for BFP!!

I have a question, I am hoping to shed some pounds before getting upduffed, so have started a couch to 5k excercise regime and am considering the 5:2 diet (I want to loose quite a bit of weight) but I wondered if anyone knew if the 5:2 is recommended for people TTC? My DP isn't too happy with me doing it whilst trying just in case I fall, or if there are any other negative side affects?

KatoPotato · 19/08/2014 11:18

Well my cape did not see any action last night, we went to bed and fell asleep watch thundercats on the ipad...

KatoPotato · 19/08/2014 11:19

but still hopeful the 2am swimmers got to it!

Leela5 · 19/08/2014 11:34

Boo rm and gaggia stupid bitch witch uninvited flange wanker

gaggiagirl · 19/08/2014 12:53

*Grin flange wanker!
Yeah shes a bitch but I'm more annoyed that I can't DtD til Friday cos of AF and DPs shifts.

I don't mind dtd while the witch weeps but its so messy its not worth the extra laundry.
