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!

Morrisons also shite.

The FRER seems to be the pissy stick of choice on MN.

laurenamium · 28/08/2014 22:08

Good luck with the interview tomorrow tee!

couldbeanyone · 28/08/2014 22:25

Honey I would go with superdrug own brand they are very high sensitivity (10 whateveritis which is as low as it goes) and much cheaper than branded tests. Roughly £4.50 for two. Also easy and clear to read.

teejayem · 28/08/2014 22:54

Thank you lauren! I'm a bit meh about it, so much other stuff going on, it's a good opportunity though, so worth a spin. Just found my lucky interview boots and the bit on the zip you pull has broken off, so I've had to improvise with a hair clip. Thank fuck I tested the outfit before tomorrow morning, I can't interview without the lucky boots! I've had two quite large wines, so maybe not the best prep, but on the upside, AF still hasn't showed up. :)

lildottie · 29/08/2014 00:25

no appointment date yet la. the system really seems to be designed to mock us. surely we've waited long enough!

good luck tomorrow tee

honey get on Amazon and buy yourself some ic's (internet cheapies) for pence each. they are 10 thingy ma wotsits but much much cheaper than supermarket. you can get a hundred for a few quid. and in my experience they are 100% accurate. always correctly bfn for me and never had an evap in 2years. and with what you save you can buy more wool to add to a mountain of it if you're anything like me!

Thanks for recommendations ladies. I don't think i'll buy hundreds yet... Feels like tempting fate a bit! But if I don't conceive this cycle then i certainly will. Smile

Best of luck today tee!

Leela5 · 29/08/2014 07:19

Good luck today tee!

lil it's not fair is it, when you've waited so long already. Can you prod them a bit?

Morning viroids!
I'm off on my trip today and I'm going to have a few drinks but not go mad. So excited to see my best mates after 6 months of not seeing them, it's been a stressful few months and I want to relax.

honey I buy the ics too - means you can POAS to your hearts content without the expense!

Pisghetti · 29/08/2014 08:32

I got about 15 ICs for £2 something.. means I can continue to sate my POAS urges Grin

Good luck Tee!

Have fun La!

Hope you get some news soon Lil

I'm doing bugger all this weekend and I'm really looking forward to it! I'm actually looking forward to cleaning the house even.

lildottie · 29/08/2014 08:34

I prodded them a few weeks back la. we should be seen end of sept/early October so I'll prod end of September again if nothing.

Morning viroids!

Anyone else thought this 4 day week has lasted blooming ages! I'm so glad to see the back of this week! This whole "cutting back" thing is going well for DP and I, we are saving loads of money which is good. Ashamedly we are still using condoms for the moment because we want to be sure we can cope with the financial side of babyhood, but we are getting more and more reluctant to use them! So I do honestly think this time next month we will be js'ing with intent (just practicing at the moment!) although I kind of wish we were not using them now but hey ho

Good luck Tee i hate job interviews! And enjoy the trip La :) Pis, doing nothing at the weekend sounds bliss

Leela5 · 29/08/2014 11:30

Law of sod has stepped in and my cat has been hospitalised :( I'm not sure I can go on trip now. Poor puss tat Hmm

cookielove · 29/08/2014 12:25

Lurks in:
Go for a pink/red dye test, super drug, first response, pound land are all pink/red!
Avoid anything blue dye like sainsburys or clearblue until you definitely know you are up duffed!

Good luck :)
Lurks back out!

callipygian00 · 29/08/2014 13:16

I caved too! Bfn on a clear blue digi (pissed off I wasted the money, off to buy some from super drug today)! 2 days before af due so if it doesn't arrive I'll test again Monday. Anyone else sign up for the free contraband reviewing thing on mn about a month ago? Got mine through the post today, aptly timed!

KatoPotato · 29/08/2014 14:00

Good luck Tee hope your boots serve you well!

la your poor cat, can you really not go?

Callipy I'm a piss by poster!

ChatEnOeuf · 29/08/2014 14:16

Ah, early days yet, calli. I've yet to splash out of expensive sticks too pee on, Morrisons and Boots gave me my bfps.

I hope the cat isn't too unwell, La :( I know how upsetting it is, I wouldn't go either, unless I knew she was getting better.

Tee, hope the interview went well. Is it for a job that rewards such creativity as using a hairclip to repair a boot?

La hope your appts come through soon...law of sod should be aware of the dates...

Pis, Tabby, hope you're keeping well, it's nice to see you :) cookie how's your little one doing?

Here's a pic of Umi - Zoomi is yet to be photographed in focus. She is VERY excited :D

VisualiseAHorse · 29/08/2014 14:17

Have officially started JS now! Have been lurking a bit...

We started at the beginning of August, I ovulated sometimes last week, period is due some time next week.

ChatEnOeuf · 29/08/2014 14:17

Ack. splash out on...sticks to pee on. Not even got my 'second language' excuse available!

jellypi3 · 29/08/2014 16:11

Calli do you know if you can still sign up for it?

callipygian00 · 29/08/2014 18:56

Jelly just had a look at the thread and it's closed now :( But there are always product testing things going on here www.mumsnet.com/Talk/mumsnet_product_tests

Lol at piss by poster Kato! Totally don't mind sharing contraband info here but will feel a bit weird in a new group of unknowns?! 'Eh so today I got a smiley face...'

AF showed her ugly git face this afternoon, so back to cd1 again! Never mind, will soon be back to jsing with intent, which will be a relief after twot. Just realised we'll be in Spain for most of predicted fertile time - bring on the holiday jsing!

callipygian00 · 29/08/2014 19:07

Chat - Umi looks fab!

gaggiagirl · 29/08/2014 19:13

Evening viroids. Just checking in. Im off for a jolly good JS now!

teejayem · 29/08/2014 19:14

In the same boat as you callipy ERTD showed up while I was doing the ironing, and about five minutes before mr tee called to say he's coming back from his work trip tomorrow, a week early. Classic bad timing. CD 40, which frankly takes the piss. I'm going to go back to yoga and meditating to control my stress, I think it totally wrecked my cycle this month.
Thank you for the interview wishes girls , it went well, but I don't think the company is for me, seems like they are in a bit of a pickle, going through a huge restructure, and with our ttc plans I don't think I want to chance something quite as unstable. My current job isn't bad, I just know I can do a lot (and am worth) a lot more.
Big wines tonight! La, hope your kitty is okay? Xxxx

teejayem · 29/08/2014 19:16

gaggia you go girl! Go get fertilised!

cookielove · 29/08/2014 21:29

chat he is wonderfully perfect, he has started waking up in the night for food which is good but hard work too!

Got my fx for everyone on this thread!
