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.
  5. Thou shalt not be offended by the word vagina.

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

Fingers crossed for you Niff, also - pretend you're drinking? A fake G & T perhaps?

Stoat great link! Loved it.

Honey that Fred link has seriously brightened my morning! Good to see la getting involved in the discussion too. Grin

All ok here...although now think my fertility app is completely wrong. Ahh. I wish I had carried on temping - beginning to think it was probably the most reliable contraband.

My CB monitor is now saying I'm low fertility. My cheapy sticks gave a big positive line yesterday but a fainter one today. According to CB I was icing Thursday and Friday. According to my app icing wasn't meant to be until Monday.

I've shagged Thursday night, Friday night and this morning. And last Sunday.

Going to shag again tomo and Monday to cover all bases but really think I should have been boning on tue and wed.

Moral of the story: JUST SHAG. AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. The irony of being on a JS Fred isn't lost on me Wink

honeysucklejasmine · 02/05/2015 11:40

Niff congratulations!

Jizzy douche?! What would our "how wuuude!" friend say to that?

FeatheredTail · 02/05/2015 11:41

Still chucking at sacred cunt washes mouth out with soap

pretzelpieces · 02/05/2015 11:41

Cake for you sky sorry you're feeling rubbish.

nutellawithbananas · 02/05/2015 12:43

I can see something so going to say congrats nifferti!

All is not well in the nutella house - supposed to be a shagfest weekend but DD has ended up staying home so only opportunity now is evenings once she's asleep and for the first time in ages DP couldn't do his bit... Arghh we did it loads last week when it didn't count...

fallenstar27 · 02/05/2015 12:45

Tentative congrats niff, chuffed for you Flowers

God, that sounds like such a faff feather Sad

I'm kind of glad I do horrible shift work/pee all through the night so I know it'll never be worth temping.

I'm patiently waiting for ewcm, refuse to do an opk until then (even though I know I could miss peak) because that 41 day cycle nearly turned me into an obsessive psychopath.

Hobbit19 · 02/05/2015 12:54

Niff, eeeeep! Getting darker is good! I am getting quite adept at pretend drinking - pour my own small glass, wet my lips with it, drink lots of water, wait until DH has almost finished his glass, both put our glasses down in the same place, pick up each others, I refill all the glasses including mine, DH gets pissed! Smile Pretty sure MIL has cottoned on but we aren't going to tell them for a little while still as FIL is a horrendous gossip!

jellypi3 · 02/05/2015 13:32

Oo niff tentative congrats!

jellypi3 · 02/05/2015 13:37

Love that buzz feed article btw :)

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 02/05/2015 13:49

I am having a hard time getting a decent pic of it but I swear I can see a hint of pink on this test. My ipad takes really shit pics but here it is in black and white where you can maybe see something? I am really hoping that I feel this shit for a good reason... Thoughts?

It is the goat jazz we seek, but the twee monitors have too much opinion on getting between the sheets, sexpests writing notes we may be, but at least the bins go out! We're all praying our uterus won

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 02/05/2015 13:54

Shag feather shag!

Hobbit19 · 02/05/2015 13:57

Think I can see something Sky, (Eep!) do you definitely know when you iced? Get a Frere for FMU?

Hobbit19 · 02/05/2015 13:58

That should say FRER

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 02/05/2015 13:59

Too scared to get a frer. Will wait until i get a stronger line on an ic. Now off to try and find this mornings fmu test... I threw it away thinking it was bfn!

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 02/05/2015 14:04

Rats. Dp and dsd have cleaned out the fridge... Going to have to wait and see tomorrow. Ahhhhhhh

justtheonethen · 02/05/2015 14:05

Ooh sky! This looks v promising

justtheonethen · 02/05/2015 14:05

You put your tests in the fridge?

picklethistle · 02/05/2015 14:06

Congratulations niff get yourself to the shops quick and but some non alcoholic kopparberg cider, they will never know the difference!

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 02/05/2015 14:10

Ha ha just no I slip them back into the packet and put them in the bin. I was hoping it was still sat on top but it is now buried in old stuff from the fridge. Oh and DP being nicer to me now and work stuff has been relatively painless.

pretzelpieces · 02/05/2015 14:14

GX sky glad things are better with DP too

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 02/05/2015 14:14

pud Glow suggests two weeks ago Sunday as icing. Had ewcm that Thurs and a temp spike I think the Monday? I'm not so good with contraband except pissy sticks which I am obsessed with

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 02/05/2015 14:16

Thanks pretz

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 02/05/2015 14:42

Different test at 10min mark. I am not imagining these am I?

justtheonethen · 02/05/2015 14:48

Can def see something pink there sky might be easier to see if you put in b&w?

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 02/05/2015 14:54

Better?
