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

Ghost jizz/goat jazz - When the amazing foof sucks up all the jizz - achieved when coming at the same time/nearly the same time.

WouldRatherHaveWine · 12/05/2015 18:18

Another congratulations! Gx for you jane

5hell you do make me giggle.

I would be screwed if I had twins (runs in my family) I'd have to put one on ebay Wink. At the hospital before I had DS there was a woman leaving with twins - I felt utterly heartbroken and jealous that she had 2 and I "just had one that didn't want to come out". Hormones are strange things!

pretzelpieces · 12/05/2015 18:39

Ah thanks lil I'll try ff :)

Congrats valancy

ThursdayLast · 12/05/2015 18:39

Woop jane!

ChatEnOeuf · 12/05/2015 18:55

Ooh congrats Jane too! Busy BFP day :)

Hobbit19 · 12/05/2015 18:59

Congratulations Jane, you must be very excited! Stats please!

justtheonethen · 12/05/2015 19:00

Woo valancy! Hurrah!

So many bfps!

I can't read back at the moment as I'm cooking 30 lamb shanks! Literally up to my elbows in onion

justtheonethen · 12/05/2015 19:01

Yes stats please, with vs scale obvs

FeatheredTail · 12/05/2015 19:03

There's a trend emerging this month: first response is pulling it out the bag!

Congrats Valancy - gx it's a sticky one!

runs and hides lest I'm held responsible for early testers merrily pissing away

FeatheredTail · 12/05/2015 19:06

5shell - you are seriously cracking me up!

Would - 30 shanks? Chuck us one over?

justtheonethen · 12/05/2015 19:16

lobs shank at feathered

CountryGal4 · 12/05/2015 19:23

There's a rude joke in there somewhere ....

SunshinePickle · 12/05/2015 19:25

Congratulations Jane! Looks like another lucky fred!

Just why 30 lamb shanks?!

ValancyJane · 12/05/2015 19:51

Thanks ladies! Stats etc: OH and I are both 28, been trying for six months now, was told last year that I might have fertility problems so it's been in the back of our mind throughout that it just might not happen for us... So even if this doesn't stick (though I really hope it does!) am just incredibly relieved that I actually seem to be able to get pregnant if that makes sense in a weird way?

Now on CD27; ovulated on CD16/17 (got strong positive OPK both days, but no EWCM this month - TMI but had a yeast infection and imagine it just didn't get noticed). We dtd on CD7, 10, 12, 14, 16 - then had a week long break as OH was really ill.

This was the first month I'd tried seriously cutting down my caffeine intake (had 2-3 per day before that, now I just have 1 coffee in the morning and decaf the rest of the day). Also have made OH take vitamins for the last three months, and I've been on them since the start. We've also been using Conceive Plus lube, and used it quite a bit this month.

It totally hasn't sunk in yet, I kept looking at the photograph of it at work just to check there was still a line! I am also super paranoid about AF being due tomorrow and worrying that I'm having crampy pains - but know that's normal so... Gah! Am happy but cautiously so :)

janey15 · 12/05/2015 20:01

Blimey this Fred moves fast! Had things to say to people but can't remember who or what now I've caught up 4 pages!

Most importantly major major congrats valancy and feathered !!!

valancy do you mind if I ask why you might have had trouble conceiving?

Viroids, I am definitely not symptom spotting but I am feeling so emotional. Had a disagreement with OH and ended up sobbing because everything seemed ruined. Totally irrational behaviour as if AF is about to start but not due yet. Need to drag myself up now and do something useful Confused

Lookingforadvice123 · 12/05/2015 20:05

Evening viroids just popped on to say hi [waves] big congrats to feathered and vancy on the BFPs!

Hope everyone else is doing ok?

justtheonethen · 12/05/2015 20:10

For a catering job pickle!

sarah1391 · 12/05/2015 20:44

Hi everyone! Wow i've missed a lot the past few hours. Congrats valancy. 2 BFPs in one day stays away from the pissy sticks whilst thinking things come in threes

I dont have any of these first response things. Pretty much the only shop i have here is tesco and my options are tescos own brand or clearblue, i have tescos own! Decided i should maybe try to test on Saturday Confused

FeatheredTail · 12/05/2015 21:17

So within 12 hours of BFP I just wiped and there was (tmi) pink-red mucus. Don't know whether it's AF or not. If it is, the red slag is early - but I usually come on in the morning with quite a lot of blood.

Feel deflated - DH isn't even home yet so haven't told him.

I'd like to think it's an implantation bleed but I read that only 1 in 3 women get that.

Off to uselessly google stuff.

eats shank gratefully - ta Just

Moral of the story - don't POAS stupidly early....

ValancyJane · 12/05/2015 21:25

:( Feathered I heard quite a lot of women get spotting around the time AF is due. Gx for you that it stays as just spotting.

FeatheredTail · 12/05/2015 21:27

Thanks Valancy

I just feel like a massive knob now. Gx.

fallenstar27 · 12/05/2015 21:31

Nine pages since yesterday morning viroids!

Congrats feathered and valancy. Gx for sticky beans all round Flowers

I'm a crap JSer, have gone contraband-free this cycle but am also so busy/stressed at work I have no motivation whatsoever to shag. Pfft.

sarah1391 · 12/05/2015 21:44

feathered i'm not sure when implantation spotting happens or what its like, would it be that?

My mum is staying tonight (long story - shes moved house and shes only staying one night as its easier for her to get to work) so i've hidden any pregnancy tests, folic acid etc...not telling anyone we're ttc

Hobbit19 · 12/05/2015 21:47

See how it goes Feathered, it could be IB or just some random spotting. Gx for a sticky bean, let us know how you are getting on in the morning. Hugs.

Hobbit19 · 12/05/2015 21:49

Sarah, if you don't buy pissy sticks, you can't piss on them! CB and tesco both notoriously rubbish. Order some ICS or frers from amazon, but set delivery as Sat so you are not tempted to wee early!
