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!

Will catch up properly in a bit. You lot have posted alot tonight!! :)

OP posts:
lildottie · 13/08/2014 00:22

phew all caught up!

sorry, I posted new thread in such a rush to try and beat la that I forgot to do them. I don't think I can change it now can I?

welcome to the newbies. get comfy, stroke the full moon unicorn, design your capes, and get stuck in.

my cape is going to be a mural of a calm meadow scene this month because I'm keeping calm and not letting it get to me. I'm not living month to month any more, I'm working on a five month cycle to until we get to the ivf and praying for a miracle bfp in the meantime

i think it has literally just hit me posting that that we are infertile. I'm going to have to have science put a baby in me. this happens to other people! I remember joining this thread a few months after we started ttc and thinking I'd be next after every bfp. how the absolute fuck did I get here.

OK moment of panic realisation over. just gotta keep on keeping on I guess! sorry for the mammoth me post, and if ur still reading thanks for listening lol

OP posts:
laurenamium · 13/08/2014 07:00

Oh lilSad fx that you get your miracle baby this month!

My cape this Fred is going to have NO BLOW JOBS written on it in huge letters. We keep getting carried away and DPs soldiers are being eaten Blush

JS quite a lot over ovulation time though so still in!

Leela5 · 13/08/2014 07:13

Morning viroids
lil you'll get there - stay positive the ivf has worked for so many people who had otherwise given up. Think you make a good point about living month to month though. It's a crap way to live for a long time - I am not as far down the ttc road as you and I'm fed up with it so I can only imagine how much more frustrating it is for you. I have two friends who, like you, thought it was never going to happen. Thankfully they are both now mothers through ivf.

Hugs lil

Have a good day everyone. I'm still in no man's land, but the healthy eating and no drinking has commenced. Let's see if it makes a difference!

Leela5 · 13/08/2014 07:15

Yes Lauren try not to eat the jizz too much, that's definitely not going to make a baby Wink

Still - at least you're having fun!

lildottie · 13/08/2014 07:41

thanks viroids. I don't think I'd cope without you lot to vent to.

la I think being where you are is harder. once we got tests and had a reason, and more importantly got into the system, it got easier in a weird way. fx all of us who are stuck in limbo get that miracle bfp soon!

as for eating jizz...that has to go in the next Fred title!

OP posts:
jellypi3 · 13/08/2014 07:55

Morning viroids! :)

Quick question for you. Is having pants snot an indicator of icing? Or can it occur even when not icing? (I have no idea if I'm icing or not!!)

lildottie · 13/08/2014 08:01

jelly pant snot is most definitely a sign of icing! go get shagging!

Hello all!

cookie are you still in hospital? How's it all going?

cookielove · 13/08/2014 08:29

gaggia still in hospital, waiting for the dr's to come release me to the ward, have been on drip and monitor for 48hrs!

jellypi3 · 13/08/2014 08:49

hope you're ok cookie!

I didn't know that about pants snot! Wow! I thought that I'd be waiting for a while until my AF returned (bloody Depo injection) but I have been getting pants snot for the past two months around the same time each month :O I really need to read up more on icing! lol!

Fx to you all for lucky fred! :)

CurlyJay19 · 13/08/2014 09:17

Hiya Viroids, I'm sort of a newbie to MN but have posted here and there Smile.

Name: CurlyJay
Age : 44
TTC : Feb 13 started IVF journey as DH had vasectomy. 3 cycles; 2 successful but sadly m/c and 1 BFN. DH reversed his vasectomy on
May 14 and by June I had a BFP but sadly m/c again. TTC naturally until both of us can't take it anymore and will go down IVF route again.
DC : Take home babies none, but I have 3 angels.
Taking supplements everyday like there is no tomorrow!

Just wanted to say to Lil that IVF does work. I know many people that it has worked out for them and now have beautiful babies. It is not as romantic as TTC naturally but when it's month after month of disappointments even naturally turns out to be as unromantic as IVF lol.

RPopz · 13/08/2014 09:25

Hugs Lil Thanks x

RPopz · 13/08/2014 09:28

Lol @ Laura!! Grin You must be too good at it Wink We have to have a No Blow Job cape if I want the actual jsing to last more than two minutes haha!

laurenamium · 13/08/2014 10:04

I feel a bit periody today. Like AF is about to start Sad I know I'm not out until AF rears her actual ugly head but I fear it is any time soon!

patientlywaitingformymiracle · 13/08/2014 10:05

leela a plastic fork?! lol bet she was well chuffed with herself as well. Sadly, my bad kitty is a bengal and so a natural killer. All purrs one minute, rabbit the next.

lauren all respect to you, JSing every other day is all my man is going to get at the moment! tired out as it is.

jellypi I'm interested.. do you think you are icing even without periods? I have this month started foolishly hoping that I might be but wasn't sure if I was just fooling myself.

finally.. lil huge hugs to you. No science, is not the romantic way but neither is drunken sex in a park which also brings about a lot of babies in this world. I met Prof Winston last year and as he said- as creatures it is our instinct to procreate and even if the original theory turns out not to work we will find another way, it doesn't mean one way is less natural than another; it's just evolution. xxx

minimooo · 13/08/2014 11:14

Just popping in quickly to add stats:

name: minimooo
age: 30
TTC: since October 2012 (mmc in April 2013) been jsing ever since but not even a sniff of a bfp
Current status: twotting (7dpo) but not holding out hope as this was officially a not-trying-cycle.
DCs: none (but have two bunnies)

Hi everyone, hope you're all having a lovely day. Will be back later to catch up and comment properly.

laurenamium · 13/08/2014 11:28

I really need a hooyah please!

Symptoms:
Mood swings
Some bleeding yesterday (only enough for on tissue- put in tampon thinking it was AF- none on tampon after an hour. AF normally heavy)
Cramping- mild yesterday. A bit worse today.
Everything smells really strongly. Things I've never even noticed before. I've just thrown the front room rug out because it stinks Blush and booked a carpet cleaner. DP thinks I've gone mad
I'm very very tired by about 8pm.

AF is due Monday. So tell me off please everyone!

jellypi3 · 13/08/2014 12:01

Ooo fx for your Laura I have no experience but it sounds positive doesn't it?

patiently I have no idea if I am icing. I just know I've not had a period for 5 years due to the injection and since coming off the injection I've been having icing "symptoms" but it could be anything I guess?

I'm seeing a doctor Friday for totally non-baby related things so I might ask them then :)

wilmabedrock · 13/08/2014 12:38

Hi curly. That's quite a journey you're going through. Hope it happens for you soon.

Can't hooya you Lauren as I am hopeful for you.

With regards to pant snot and ovulation, it depends on the type of pant snot. Also it is possible to get ewcm without ovulating although usually it is a sign. clearly spent far too long examining my own secretions.
