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 current Grads Fred is here

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

Happy shagging, shaggers!

Chat thanks for the advice on football, I'll carry on for now then :) I think I will refrain from alcohol, I don't drink much anyway, only at work, and I have an event this week so will just have fake G&T's!

KatoPotato · 01/09/2014 10:46

Chat, try to chill while DD at nursery... much easier said than done!

KatoPotato · 01/09/2014 10:50

Wow, hunners o shagging!

splodge77 · 01/09/2014 10:54

Congrats Honey!

ChatEnOeuf · 01/09/2014 11:06

Good shagging honey!

I've been building a dining table, does that count? Wink I WILL get this house into a home! I have a hot date with 17 women in an hour, should keep me occupied until pickup time Grin I fucking love this website.

honeysucklejasmine · 01/09/2014 11:17

Gah, sorry! Iced on 18th, not CD18. X Cycle is 27 days. Started cycle on 4th Aug.

honeysucklejasmine · 01/09/2014 11:18

Those dtds are all dates, not CD's.

KatoPotato · 01/09/2014 11:30

I love stats, thanks Honey, how are you feeling? Sunk in yet??

KatoPotato · 01/09/2014 11:31

For your info - I am a GEEK! You are 15 DPO :)

KatoPotato · 01/09/2014 11:31

Have you had ANY symptoms?

minimooo · 01/09/2014 11:33

congrats honey! Grin

Sorry about the witch la. Sending you hugs and Flowers

teejayem · 01/09/2014 11:37

Can I join the hot tears of frustration club please? - Was totally fine that AF turned up on Friday, but when I told mr Tee when he got back from work trip yest I got a bit irrationally hysterical. :( comparatively we haven't been trying for that long either, but I feel so frustrated that we seem to be doing all the right things, but nothing seems to be happening. I didn't realistically think that this month would be a go-er anyway sa he's been away for most of it, but the disappointment was still as strong. Think i am going to give it one more cycle, and if I'm still around the 40 day mark again, will go and see GP to see if there's any particular reason why.

A close friend of mine had her DS on Saturday, and I'm upset with myself that I feel so envious. She's a SAHM and seems to get upduffed just by sitting on the same sofa as her DH. I love them both to bits, I really do, but I can't shake the jealousy. Honestly feel like ungrateful awful human being today, have health, wonderful fiance, steady job and am unhappy because no baby.

Whinge over. Lots of hugs to anyone else that feels a bit low with it all at the moment. xxxxFlowers Cake Wine

KatoPotato · 01/09/2014 11:46

It's shit isn't it? I am hating this. I didn't know I was pg with DS until I was 20 WEEKS! Always joked that no. 2 would be a different kettle of fish, but I'm running out of excuses now and it just stinks.

This was my first time with contraband aplenty. I'm scunnered too.

jellypi3 · 01/09/2014 12:04

awww Tee cheer up hun :( It'll happen in time, it just has to be right. Don't feel bad about being a bit jealous, it is a perfectly natural response. Just stay positive (I know that's a really hard thing to do), I do think stress is counter intuitive to the whole process.

Hugs from me too xx Flowers

gaggiagirl · 01/09/2014 12:57

Hugs to tee and la, chins up! and dont give up.

congrats honey, what a lucky fred.

im posting from work so maybe i wont post twice, lets find out.

gaggiagirl · 01/09/2014 12:58

yaaaaaaaaY!

honeysucklejasmine · 01/09/2014 13:24

Ha ha thanks for working it out Kato.

I am excited. Told my sister as she rang, and she gave me a two minute lecture on miscarriages before saying congratulations. Hmm She means well. Smile

No symptoms. Temp dropped this morning so really expected. A few twinges now and then.

teejayem · 01/09/2014 13:28

(and gaggia and jelly) -It is shit. I know that I am being a bit of a knob, don't usually wallow, this month's 'Failure' just hit me like a ton of bricks.

Normal service will be resumed shortly, and I will be back to 'Operation Christen every room in new house' shortly. (only managed 2 rooms so far!) - That'd be a story for DC. 'We made you on the stairs!! well done you!'

BothersomeB · 01/09/2014 13:49

Can I play? I've spent the last hour googling acronyms to translate what the buggery you're all talking about...and could do with the advice of some normal (?!) people in the same situation as me as I'm sitting at my desk at work thinking my brain might just explode, and I cried in Waitrose this morning because they didn't have the yoghurt I wanted...

Age 40
DC 0
TTC since June 2013
MC Oct 2013
Gave it a rest for 6 months, back on it from June 2014

I'm currently on CD 29 (16 DPO - I think - don't do tests) when mine are usually 26-28...have been feeling sick (I know it's early, but I was like that with the MC last year too), sore boobs, went right off coffee , and have been absolutely convinced that this morning's test would be positive...but no - negative. AF was due on Sat, so surely if I'm pg,it would show as positive? I did buy a really cheap Sainsbury's test, but surely they're all the same...

I suppose time will tell, but right now this seems like the longest, nastiest Monday EVER.

Tee - I know exactly how you feel - my BF has 3 kids and as far as I'm aware rarely even has sex with her DH! So hard feeling jealous of someone you love to bits. I feel you pain.

Thanks for listening - any advice gratefully received.

KatoPotato · 01/09/2014 14:01

Welcome bothersome!

If I were you I'd get a first response? I'm sure I've heard Sainsbos are rubbish?

The cleaner at my work keeps asking 'ANY NEWS YET HEN?' because when she bluntly asked me 5months ago if I was 'No going to have another yet?' I told her that was the plan, she keeps bloody asking me every 4 weeks, she's being VV Unreasonable! Apparently 'My Sharon's* husband just has to look at her and she gets pregnant!'

KatoPotato · 01/09/2014 14:02

Leela5 · 01/09/2014 14:09

Finally got to computer - I see a line too honey! Honey seriously - you shagged that much!?!?! I'm starting to see why perhaps I'm not getting sperminated. How the hell do you shag that much? How is that physically doable? I have DH's shifts to compound matters, but still!

So hang on - does that mean your lp is 10 days or sometimes 9 days? This give me HOPE!!!!!!! big smiley face instead of a weepy one for five minutes Oh no, hang on just read Kato's message. So you were 15dpo. Oh bum. So not lp of 10 days :(

Oh man..am I the only loser with a clearly useless luteal phase?

Hugs tee it's you and me on the pity train today - hopefully it's just us and everyone else gets to stay on the positive happy one.

honey my temp dropped today too - did yours go below cover line la pretending that she isn't talking about temping and hoping no one's going to shout at her

gaggia that made me laugh! Hooray for single posts!

bother hi! Welcome! You may not have enough hormone yet. Which test did you use?

Leela5 · 01/09/2014 14:11

PS stupid pissy witch is pissing about not coming properly and it's messing with my mind. Temp dropped this morning below cover line - this means it's definitely AF. I keep reminding myself of. this. fact.

wilmabedrock · 01/09/2014 14:11

God Kato, as Juni just said on the other thread, punch her in the face, with a hammer.

Hi Bother, don't want to fuel the mental but I was either 4 or 5 days late before I got bfp, could be you are a late ovulator. Apparently there is aEnvy difference between pink dye and blue dye tests - one kind is more responsive. Obviously I can't remember which is the better one but probably the opposite of whatever you have Grin helpful.
