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!

You dtd'd the day before and after! Judging on the lifetime of sperm and egg, I'd say its pretty likely your egg tripped over a few thousand sperm on its journey! Stay calm. If anythings not going to help its stress! Smile

The stupid bum-face witch arrived in full force yesterday Sad I would have been alright if it was on time like usual, but 4 days late is just cruel! Angry and it's been a particularly horrible period too (really painful, heavy and clotty - Sorry, tmi).
DH suggested stopping ttc for a while because he can't bare to see me so sad when AF arrives each month. Please tell me the disappointment gets easier?!

Oh well, onwards to the next cycle!

honeysucklejasmine · 26/08/2014 07:43

I'm sorry RM, that sucks. Sad

gaggiagirl · 26/08/2014 07:59

Morning viroids!
Thanks to this new wanky mobile site I can't click on threads I'm on or the bookmark button. I have to wait for you all to pop up in active convos.
la does b6 increase your ttc chances?. Might give it a whirl.

Sorry rm Hmm we x-posted there's me banging on about stuff.

It doesn't get easier but you do learn more about your cycle and it's easier to understand why it might not be working (eg my short lp)

Flowers and Wine

Leela5 · 26/08/2014 08:04

gaggia it helps to regulate cycle and increase luteal phase if it's short. Mine was 10 days so I presume now it'll be a more normal length.

It is in your pre conception vits if you're taking them but at low dose 10mg. I take another 50mg on top. Have also been taking eve primrose oil and noticed it helps to spot ewcm.

ChatEnOeuf · 26/08/2014 08:47

Congratulations tee, classy 'action on return' promise. I like it Grin

Aw rm I'm really sorry. Brew now, Wine for later.

La you're still in the game. Nothing deserves a bfp like a broken bed! Try not to stress.

Kato I'll be sharing that award...this wtf cycle has dared to throw pant shot at me for the best part of a week now. Got me some sciatica to throw into the mix just for good measure and can't think about making babies with the amount of drugs I'm on. Feeling a bit [sad, I need a slap.

Leela5 · 26/08/2014 10:09

chat I'm sending you a hug - after this cycle hopefully things will get a bit easier x

jellypi3 · 26/08/2014 11:17

:( Sorry to hear that Rm Hopefully it gets easier if you don't think about it.

Seems like a lot of low moods on this fred at the moment! My month of destitution torture saving up starts today, so it's tuna sandwiches for lunch and soup for dinner. No going out, no buying clothes, no spending money except for where needed. If we can save £1000 by the end of the month (ie spend £1k less than we did this month!!) then we will start DTD without protection. If not, it's bye bye to the idea of babies until we get a pay rise. So I'm a little anxious about it all and trying to keep optimistic but a month of basically not going out or doing anything is going to drive me mad!!

Anybody got any funny / happy stories?

KatoPotato · 26/08/2014 17:14

Is 10 days a troubling luteual phase? I think that's what mine is based on my cd16 ovukatuon?

Leela5 · 26/08/2014 18:04

Not troubling so much but just trickier to get upduffed. 9 is short, 10 can take people longer. If you can get it up to 12-15 that's ideal. B6 is recommended for it. If you have short lp you can get spotting after icing (happened to me last month) and the lining hasn't built up enough, so mc can happen.

honeysucklejasmine · 26/08/2014 19:53

I am i such a foul mood today for some reason. Poor DH, he's like a wounded puppy. I haven't been mean to him, promise, but I'm just... Bleh. Either the worst PMT ever or boooooored to tears of sitting in with the builder all bloody day for 6days and counting. Gragh!!!

honeysucklejasmine · 26/08/2014 19:55

We have a rather small living room so can't really have friends (with toddler DCs) round either!

Just passed the remote a bit aggressively. Oops. Confused

honeysucklejasmine · 26/08/2014 19:57

Watching Lord of the Rings. (in order of course.) I can pretty much quote it so it should cheer me up. Smile

jellypi3 · 26/08/2014 20:59

Love LOTR. Not so keen on the hobbit.

Regarding contraband, will I get my JS'er status removed if I used it one to determine if I am even icing? Without AF visiting I have no idea!!!

KatoPotato · 27/08/2014 08:22

Jelly, if I have the cheek to call myself a js'er then anyone can!!

Leela5 · 27/08/2014 08:43

Ditto!

DulcetMoans · 27/08/2014 11:10

Oh most of us are rubbish JSers! But the spirit is still there!!

honeysucklejasmine · 27/08/2014 11:19

5 days till POAS day. Trying distract myself with chrochet. Currently about to make the 4th foot of a platypus. (Request from a friend.)

Builder finishes tomorrow... The dishwasher is in place... So excited. I'm never washing anything again, ever. EVER!

callipygian00 · 27/08/2014 12:28

A PLATYPUS!! Amazing! I think a platypus picture will be required upon completion! Good idea for taking your mind off the twot, perhaps I should get my knitting needles out again... New family baby in America due so I probably should actually, as I knitted a hat for his big brother!

Was going to POAS on Saturday but realised DH will be away in Englandshire, so will have to wait til Monday - fx for another day of multiple BFPs honey!

gaggiagirl · 27/08/2014 12:50

afternoon viroids!
DP claims i sometimes make him feel like a piece of meat! cheeky bugger!
whats a girl to do? I dont pester him for sex purely for TTC purposes. I pester him because hes sooooooooo beautiful and i love him and want him all the time. I feel like I should do something to make it up to him though. I would hate to feel like a piece of meat.

honeysucklejasmine · 27/08/2014 14:45

Ha ha ha callipy POAS buddies!
