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

*once not nice

LaLaLaaaa · 07/04/2015 18:39

The b6 will extend it but as you said you need the b12 too - without it you can be deficient which can have fertility knock on effect

LaLaLaaaa · 07/04/2015 18:42

The thing is that the more pressure you're putting on it all then that's not going to help either. I know it's absolute cliche and hardest thing to do but if you can try to chill out a bit, let your cycles stabilise and shag eod then you should get pg naturally

justtheonethen · 07/04/2015 18:52

lil great news about the appointment, gx you don't need it. Did you do another ic?

aux I don't know anything useful about vit b but I would listen to la, she is the queen of this.

I am starting to think this mornings excitement was a bit previous - I think the frer was bfn, I think I was just trying to see something iyswim? I did another ic this afternoon and got another squinter. I am scared that the IC's are lying though. I have no more left now anyway. I have 2 frers coming with my shopping tomorrow morning so will use unicorn with one of those. Do you think I am 16dpo or 9dpo? I would guess 9dpo would be too early to get a line on anything but shouldn't a line come up on a frer by 16dpo?

Sorry don't mean to be all me me me.

Welcome Looking I am not always so nuts...just ignore today's posts!

TotallyAnonymousUsername · 07/04/2015 18:53

I've been busy with a couple of essays I've had to write for a course I'm doing, and I managed to miss all the last thread!

My light af last month was indeed af, so I had an 8 day lp. I'm blaming the mirena. So I'm now cd12 (I think) of cycle 2 ttc. No convincing ewcm yet and my temps are much more stable than last month. We've been jsing, but I'm not sure when I'll ice, it was cd18 last month.

Congratulations on all the bfps, and sorry to those with af and who are struggling. jelly I had a moment just like you when I was ttc last time. I had just talked myself into a lovely life without children but with lots of fun experiences and then I got a bfp. Keep the faith or lose it and tempt the law of sod

lil I have my fingers firmly crossed for you.

jellypi3 · 07/04/2015 18:58

just maybe give it a few more days before pissing on the FRER? Good luck though :)

totally hope the essays went well! I'm over my woe is me I think though still not shagged this cycle. feeling better though :)

I've got healthy chicken kievs for dinner but really fancy chinese

PS Disclaimer: I don't pretend to be a medically trained expert on this but I did a lot of research at the time and spoke to various people about it.

Dosage is important too. 50mg is best to start with to see if any difference. Mine increased with that dose. In USA they go up to 200mg for old but that's too much. I went up to 100mg before 2nd pregnancy.

LaLaLaaaa · 07/04/2015 19:03

To make ewcm more noticeable and help to know when to shag you can take eve primrose oil, just make sure you stop as soon as you get bfp.

CountryGal4 · 07/04/2015 19:09

just not saying it wasn't positive but don't hold a frer to the light. There's a plastic bar across the back the creates a shadow line where you'd expect a line if held up . I did that two cycles again hahaha. Unicorn with frer tomorrow pet. Gots gx cross for you

bellybuttonfluffy · 07/04/2015 19:17

Good evening all!
Congrats on the potential bfp's!
Hope tomorrows tests are more clear Just, even just to put your mind at rest!

bellybuttonfluffy · 07/04/2015 19:20

jelly I was so tempted for a greasy chinese- Salt and chilli chips, chicken chow mein mmm. Instead I ended up with a disappointing frozen pizza Sad
Homemade veg soup simmering now for tomorrows lunch and dinner.

jellypi3 · 07/04/2015 19:30

Ahh fluffy that's made me really want Chinese now. Darn it!!!

bellybuttonfluffy · 07/04/2015 19:33

Grin and I was hoping to convince you towards homemade veg soup!

WouldRatherHaveWine · 07/04/2015 19:45

I had pesto pasta for tea that I had to share with DS of course. Why is it he will eat anything if it originates from my plate?! Not I'm craving something naughty. A missive piece of chocolate fudge cake or something

honeysucklejasmine · 07/04/2015 19:48

Hi all. Lots of chatter here today! Its been such a nice sunny day! I've had a good one.

Dinner talk... We had lasagne and sat in hot tub whilst it baked. We'll be emptying it soon.

justtheonethen · 07/04/2015 20:09

Homemade calzone here. Delicious!

CarrotPuff · 07/04/2015 20:10

honey that sounds divine!

I'm doing 5:2 diet and it's a fast day for me today, so I just had scrambled eggs for dinner Confused

fallenstar27 · 07/04/2015 20:12

Yummmmm just!

BBC good food's aromatic prawn and cashew curry over here. Highly recommend. One of my favourite dinners.

jellypi3 · 07/04/2015 20:30

Man all your food sounds lovely. I've not cooked ours yet lol

MyBlackCat · 07/04/2015 20:35

Chill Con Carne then apple and raspberry crumble with custard for pudding mmmmm I love custard!!

lildottie · 07/04/2015 20:40

carrot fasting is not good for fertility. its more likely your reproductive organs will shut down when u have too few calories. I wouldn't recommend it when ttc. its not a healthy way to lose weight either.

I had leftover mince beef and sweet potato stew. cooked double last week and froze it so tea was very easy tonight! got a curry in the freezer for later in the week too Grin

jellypi3 · 07/04/2015 20:44

Ok I went for the healthy option. Homemade healthy kievs in the oven!!
carrot I tried the 5:2 a while back and it really messed my cycles up

So, all set to DTD and Dh hits out with 'you can go on top and have to do something for a change'. Promptly killed the mood. As a bit of a back story, I have a weird cervix which makes a lot of different sexual positions quite uncomfortable and sore yes, lots of fun isnt it? I'm happy to move about during, but a whole session in an uncomfortable position would be unbearable and would induce lots of bleeding.

He's been sent to his bed without getting any and frankly, he doesn't seem too bothered I should have just got on with it shouldn't i?

lildottie · 07/04/2015 21:04

ltb fluffy

fallenstar27 · 07/04/2015 21:12

:O what a fucker fluffy!

Dh is annoyingly polite when he asks me to go on top, but he'd get a punch in the nads if he ever said that.
