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. Also know as 'the witch', 'bitch witch' and 'that one with the red shiny convertible'

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! PONF = Pee on Nigel Farage. Self explanatory, who wouldn't?

ROC - Receptacle of Choice - what one chooses to use for the task of POAS. Optional decorations include photographs of controversial political leaders.

JIAC = Jizz in a Cup. Preferable to jizz on the carpet or jizz in the eye. 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. Warning - this may happen to you if you start trying to POAS at 5dpo. PUT. THE. PISSY. STICK. DOWN. IT'S TOO EARLY!

Contraband (or Cuntraband) = 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

SOTM = Shagger of the Month. Awarded with varying regularity to those viroids who go above and beyond EOD shagging in pursuit of that BFP

TWOT - Two Weeks of Torture. AKA Schroedingering!
TWPU - Two Week Piss Up!

Keeping your gingers = fingers crossed, yet another autocorrect development! Shortened to 'gx'

Doing A Lemon = Testing WAAAAAAAY to early!

Miroid - The male compadre of a viroid

Cat - Compulsory

Skittletits - Killer molten painful tits and nipples

honey, what on earth is a pineapple cup!?

5hell · 14/04/2015 12:41

stoat sorry you're feeling so down this month, no good advice except maybe Try to relax, take break away somewhere, forget about ttc?

Trip to EPU was inconclusive...saw teeny sac but not much else (possibly consistent with dates, tho I'm not optimistic) had blood tests etc, so more waiting for results and rescan in a week or so. Limbo :(

5hell · 14/04/2015 12:44

Oh and welcome city :)

I recommend a gu ramekin for ROC...nice and wide so easy to catch piss. Plus gu puds are YUM so good excuse to eat some one

ChatEnOeuf · 14/04/2015 12:51

Welcome City, enjoy all of the shagging!

Stoat I'm sorry you're feeling low. Like La I found the MC boards here a little bit helpful at first, but then just a bit too much. I feel a bit bad that I can't go back there to comfort others, but it brings it all back a bit. I think we build ourselves up for the wtf cycle to be a pain, to be unpredictable and unsuccessful - but then the expectations heaped on the next one are huge. I had massive tears with that one after my first MC. I was fortunate enough to get a BFP for the second, but it was very late (CD36) so I had a week of negative tests, where's the fucking witch and more tears beforehand...I think it's pretty normal to be honest. I firmly believe that a single MC only means that that baby wasn't to be (as humans we are spectacularly poor at copying our DNA correctly - most MC are probably due to that), not at all the case that all hope of babies is gone.

Mae have you used that lube before? Could be be reacting to an ingredient?

ChatEnOeuf · 14/04/2015 12:52

X-post 5hell (perils of MNing with a preschooler around). Sorry to see you in limbo too. GX for good bloods and a positive scan next week.

jellypi3 · 14/04/2015 13:10

Welcome city

Sorry you are in limbo 5hell :(

Fallen, well, a cup in the shape of a pineapple, obviously! Wink It was a grads... Not sure who's now!

5hell so sorry sweetheart. Hang on in there.

rehomedcitygirl · 14/04/2015 13:26

Thanks for all the welcomes! Used my husband's favourite cup the first time for ROC (purely out of badness). This didn't go down massively well unsurprisingly, so will pop out to buy some Gu now (both making this up to him and providing me with uncontroversial new pee holder). It has now been washed!

Fallen - think I am on CD 13 of a 28 - 30 day cycle...so this weekend would be too soon for POAS I think. Need to get into shagging much more regularly starting tonight, as I have to be honest, we have been mainly shagging once a week due to crazy year/work/big dinners. I just get so tired!! May well have missed the boat this month, but it has been a big step making the conscious decision that we are now definitely trying.

Also, very sorry to hear about mc's people have experienced and glad you have some big support from this board xx

fallenstar27 · 14/04/2015 13:54

Sorry you didn't get any definitive answers from epu 5hell, not a nice situation to be in. Gx for next week.

Oh city, I was speaking to stoat about pissy party on Friday. You would definitely get a gentle ribbing telling off if you poas at cd16!

rehomedcitygirl · 14/04/2015 14:01

Oops - clearly new to this game!!

honeysucklejasmine · 14/04/2015 14:42

City if I were you, I'd be shagging tonight! Cd13 should be near enough ovulation time for a cycle that length. Shag, shag, shag! Grin

I'm laying on the grass in the garden. This is the perfect weather for self employment!

rehomedcitygirl · 14/04/2015 14:57

honey lucky you...I dream of not doing my stressful, office based job. Thankfully am a bit quiet today, so am mainly on this and hiding with a two day hangover cold. Will have to man up and get shagging!!

maemay · 14/04/2015 15:20

Welcome to City! :)

Honey LOL - does that actually work?? (cutting off the tops of condoms) !! Funnily enough, DH actually suggested that, but I thought surely it will just tear then, or end up bunched up around the base??
Aux he's not circumcised, so could be painful due to stretching.
I highly doubt it's psychological though. He was the one who suggested we should start trying! (I also wanted to but hadn't mentioned it for a while, for fear of freaking him out), so he's fully on board with the babies-plan.

Having googled it (yes, risky I know!) it seems it's quite a common 'teenage' problem, for first-timers getting used to sex.
We both 'saved ourselves for marriage' (for want of a better way of putting it!) and have only ever used condoms from the start, so I suppose his little man has never actually gotten used to 'real sex'.
Hopefully it's something as simple as that rather than anything wrong with his equipment. We will keep trying (slowly and gently!) and if it doesn't get easier, maybe I'll suggest he gets checked out at the docs.

Bless him though, he was really upset last night after we had to stop, because he was disappointed that we might miss the window this month, and would be a long wait till trying again next month!

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 14/04/2015 17:44

mae just keep "doing it". It will get easier for him. I have a friend who has deflowered more than one virgin and they do get more comfortable.

I think I might be icing on CD6. AF was like 24 hours... Strange days.

justtheonethen · 14/04/2015 18:01

Welcome city

5hell sorry for limbo, bet you will be wishing this week away. Flowers

mae just keep doing it, will get easier also whistles innocently

jellypi3 · 14/04/2015 18:09

Why is icing so much torture for me. I'm so bloated it is ridiculous.

CountryGal4 · 14/04/2015 18:20

jelly I suffer too I feel on the verge of vomiting permanently when icing. What the hell is wrong with our bodies!!!?!

auxiliaryauroch · 14/04/2015 18:24

Sorry but have missed the explanation of a pineapple cup? Hmm

fallenstar27 · 14/04/2015 19:01

Hah yes aur, exactly what it sounds like... A cup shaped liked a pineapple!

MyBlackCat · 14/04/2015 19:15

Welcome city

I too have 29/30 day cycles and usually ice around day 17/18 so continue to shag for a few more days yet and drown the egg with sperm Wink

auxiliaryauroch · 14/04/2015 20:09

Ah. A pineapple-shaped mooncup? Grin

5hell · 14/04/2015 20:24

whenever you say pineapple cup all I can think of is one of those massive plastic pineapple ice buckets...but this set would be even better!! www.modernabode.com/sitebuilder/images/MVC-024S32-280x240.jpg

WouldRatherHaveWine · 14/04/2015 20:32

Evenin all, just caught up and now I can't remember who said what. Bah.

Sorry you're having to wait for answers 5hell

Today has been a step backwards for me, pain had gotten so much better and then kicked off again today so I'm feeling frustrated. But catching up on last night's GOT with a bowl of popcorn should help!

Hobbit19 · 14/04/2015 20:40

5hell, sorry that you are in limbo, a week seems so long to wait it didn't sound really negative though? Flowers for you.

For all of you crazies asking for symptoms, the only ones I had were the spotting, my womble feeling weird and not being able to sleep properly. I normally sleep like a log but since coming off BC I have struggled during icing and in LP. I also felt ridiculously protective of my uterus.

Still spotting today but less than yesterday and I've just done a massive poo, seriously, not sure where it all came from, so I'm hoping that has squeezed the last of the spotting out. And a darker line on the IC today which is really good. Not sure who showed the pic quite a while back of all the ICS lined up on paper with the dates on showing the line getting darker, but it was genius and I'm going to have to order more ICs do that.

Symptoms post bfp = still not sleeping and slightly sore boobs when I poke them

and the world's biggest poo #proud.Blush

honeysucklejasmine · 14/04/2015 21:08

Mae DH and I also waited till marriage! Grin high five First time wasn't fun. Or second, third, fourth.... We made Gaggia proud on our honeymoon as its all we could do. I had surgery and it sorted, but its still mildly uncomfortable in certain positions!

Watching OBEM. because I hate myself and will shag in a bit. Icing yesterday or today... Temp went up this morning but I had crappy sleep and got up about an hour before taking it to go to loo... I don't trust it!

City its great being self employed. Grin
