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 known 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.

honey how does it feel not temping this month?

honeysucklejasmine · 31/05/2015 18:18

Jelly relaxing! Looked back through my charts... Except one month, I have had EWCM on CD10-14, and iced on CD14. So as today is CD10, looks right I'm dead on time!

Gosh, if my periods were irregular then I would understand this whole "not pregnant" thing. Another annoying thing.

wine happy anniversary! Flowers

Unmumsnetty hugs honey and a Brew

justtheonethen · 31/05/2015 19:08

Wasted Sunday, fell asleep by accident at about 3 and just woke up! Pah, going to assume I needed it.

justtheonethen · 31/05/2015 19:09

wine idiots! Happy anniversary Flowers

CountryGal4 · 31/05/2015 19:25

Took the niece/nephew out today. My womb aches humph

Hobbit19 · 31/05/2015 19:56

Could still be a good sign tee even if it not happening right now.

One of my 'cravings' has been Jelly, but I have just realised that might be because I keep reading/typing Jelly on here ha ha. Jelly your subliminal messaging is making me want to eat you!

Hobbit19 · 31/05/2015 19:57

Oh bugger, that was meant to be on grads! Ha, as you were Viroids, ignore my random post!!

Hobbit19 · 31/05/2015 19:59

Actually, since I am on here, I have all do just ordered pickled onions, pickled beetroot and pickled gerkins on the weekly shop - thistle and Sunshine you can take the blame for those! (Waves to Sunshine if you are still lurking, hope you are okay).

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 31/05/2015 19:59

honey when was the last time you had your tsh tested. I second what Illiria says about less than 2.5 being ideal. I have read that before. Getting mine checked Thursday and will talk to doc about increasing dose if TSH too high. I met a friends 11 month old yesterday and am determined to get pregnant...

jellypi3 · 31/05/2015 20:06

Haha pud baby brain lol. Also craving me you minx Wink

WouldRatherHaveWine · 31/05/2015 20:16

I keep thinking it's Monday!!! So anniversary is next weekend not this weekend but I appreciate the early condolences of my imprisonment ;)

What is TSH then and what does it do? Please forgive my ignorance of all things fertility!

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 31/05/2015 20:32

Wine tsh is thyroid stimulating hormone. If you have a tsh under 4.5 you are considered normal but for conception under 2.5 is considered ideal. It is a simple blood test your gp can order.

loveradleybags · 31/05/2015 20:33

Wine I was going to ask the same, what is tsh?

honeysucklejasmine · 31/05/2015 20:53

Sky in February, but I don't know the results, just that my dose didn't need to change. Will pop in to docs tomorrow.

Fivemonkeysjumpingonthebed · 31/05/2015 21:02

Lovely to read some relaxing weekends. I've spend weekend doing everything while DH put some bread in the toaster and strutted about like he'd actually contributed. Not feeling much love for men today.

Fivemonkeysjumpingonthebed · 31/05/2015 21:06

And interesting to read about tsh. Might look into that. Been trying for almost a year and have regular cycles although short. Also been looking at preseed, anyone not using it on this contraband thread?

Fivemonkeysjumpingonthebed · 31/05/2015 21:07

...contraband free thread that should have read. Oh I give up. Time to stop posting!

MyBlackCat · 31/05/2015 21:18

five I totally don't use preeseed and totally haven't used it for months. It helps with functional shags - no need for foreplay preeseed does the work for you Shock

^ can't believe I just wrote that - the shame..

MyBlackCat · 31/05/2015 21:19

And I got carried away the eeeeee's Angry

Niffertiti · 31/05/2015 21:37

I used pressed for the first time the cycle I got knocked up. I have no idea if it worked but I second black on helping with the functional shags hangs head in shame

WouldRatherHaveWine · 31/05/2015 21:47

OH asked if we could have non "just wanting the sperm" sex. I said yes but he will have to wait a week.

"Can't you just pretend?"

Bless

FeatheredTail · 31/05/2015 22:20

Also backing fertility lube - conceive plus helped with the couple of 'functional' shags we had on the first cycle we conceived. Again, no idea if it helped the conception but it helped with the friction burns

honeysucklejasmine · 31/05/2015 22:26

We don't use lube! Shock

We used to use conceive plus. when I got preg it was with "liquid silk" and had no success with CP at all.
