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!

OH MY EFFING GOD LA!!!!

I'm crying for you lovie...Congratulations!!!!!
Will keep everything crossed for a sticky bean xx

KatoPotato · 03/09/2014 10:59

La, I am genuinely so happy for you, even with my bfn! You do deserve yours, I can wait a little longer!
(But I love this lucky thread number!)

AF due tomorrow assuming a usual 26 day cycle...

fattycow · 03/09/2014 11:33

I have decided that this month is my month. It would mean a bfp right before my birthday, announcing it during the Sinterklaas festivities and due on the day DH and I celebrate being 10 years together. Nicer dates than those I cannot imagine.

chat I absolutely love baking, but when reputation at stake I quote the great Helen mirren (calendar girls) 'if its a special event get it from marks and spencer'

laurenamium · 03/09/2014 12:02

Congratulations la!!! GrinGrinGrin

teejayem · 03/09/2014 12:07

OMG LA wooohhoo!!! xx

jellypi3 · 03/09/2014 12:08

What's the very earliest you can POAS? Is it two weeks after icing?

Pisghetti · 03/09/2014 12:58

I take it you mean POAS and get a true result? Depends - I remember Zyla getting her BFP with afternoon urine a few days before AF was due whereas I had BFNs for days after AF was due. I've been getting BFPs ever since but then I have the POAS crazies and can't stop myself

Roughly speaking, the fertilised egg implants somewhere between 6-10 ish days after fertilisation. It then takes a couple of days until you have enough HCG in your urine to show a positive on an HPT. As you have the difficulty with calculating where you are in your cycle, I would wait until 14 dpo from your symptoms and then test daily after that (with the cheapies).

Pisghetti · 03/09/2014 13:01

Oh and La I first saw your pictures on the iPad and the lines came up lovely on that. It's harder to see on the PC but there nonetheless. How are you managing to concentrate in work Grin

also 2nd pic - errrr you appear to be in my bathroom......

jellypi3 · 03/09/2014 13:18

Thanks Pis :) Appreciate the advice.

BertieBotts · 03/09/2014 13:26

8-10 days after implantation for the most sensitive urine test according to wiki. Implantation can be anywhere from 6-12 days after fertilisation. Of course if test is not as sensitive it won't pick it up until later. Wiki suggests the chance of a false negative is low 14dpo +.

BertieBotts · 03/09/2014 13:28

I didn't realise implantation happened that early Confused With DS I didn't know I was pregnant until about 6 weeks and I'd been smoking and drinking pretty heavily :( Doctor said that the egg wouldn't have implanted at the time I was doing that, so it wouldn't have had any effect but now I think that might be wrong! He seems fine, though.

Pisghetti · 03/09/2014 14:18

The placenta takes a while to develop following implantation Bertie so the baby doesn't get anything from you until a bit later on so the doctor was right in as much as there wasn't anything to worry about but his reasoning was a little askew Smile

I'm still reeling from Kato's revelation that she found out about her DS at 20 weeks! That must have been a shocker! There was a girl I work who found out at 5.5 months (25 weeks ish) - she found out just as she was due to come back to work after maternity leave.

BertieBotts · 03/09/2014 15:23

Ah well perhaps I remembered what he said incorrectly - it was nearly seven years ago now!

gaggiagirl · 03/09/2014 15:41

LA I'm bastard weeping for you! You did it! Go on lass! Yaaaaaaaaay!
Good afternoon lucky Fred viroids!

I haven't done enough shagging this month so I'm counting myself out. Due AF in 9 days.

KatoPotato · 03/09/2014 17:55

You do have a frer in your posession yes?? X

Pisghetti · 03/09/2014 18:00

Stuck on the M25 needing a wee? Cos if you have to hold it a while it might get nice and concentrated..... We need an excited emoticon!

Leela5 · 03/09/2014 18:04

Confused Needing wee face.
Shock No frer yet face

KatoPotato · 03/09/2014 18:08

Or If you really gotta go. Go into a receptacle!

honeysucklejasmine · 03/09/2014 18:13

Yes Kato, great plan!

Good luck La! So exciting! My friend showed me hers today and it was much fainter than yours. It was only that she showed me the next 6 (!) that i knew it was true! Fx!
