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.

Congratulations auf! Looking forward to seeing you on the grads.

chat that's rubbish, I'm sorry. Onwards I suppose. Wine

lil best of luck, great that the process is beginning now.

picklethistle · 20/07/2015 10:56

Congrats auf Grin this is amazing!!! Really hoping we all get our BFPs this cycle loving the Fred 50 crew chat! Also sorry AF got you but GX because you know where you are everything will happen quickly for you.

lil I am so rooting for you right now. I am here cheering you on from the sidelines!

NFMV: CD 14 over here and still collecting jizz. Still getting stabby O pains so not sure where I am, just gonna keep on shagging.

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 20/07/2015 12:47

auf I have Hashimotos Thyroiditis. Successfully treated. You'll need to have your levels checked every 6 weeks as pregnancy means you might need to adjust meds

FeatheredTail · 20/07/2015 13:41

Big congrats Auf really lovely news!

justtheonethen · 20/07/2015 15:23

Ugh a load of jizz has just fallen out of me. I haven't had sex since yesterday afternoon. Grim

picklethistle · 20/07/2015 15:35

I have exactly the same today just it's gross. It's not glamorous this TTC business.

jellypi3 · 20/07/2015 15:39

i hear pregnancy is even less glamourous!

CountryGal4 · 20/07/2015 16:04

Just agahahhahahahahahahahahaha

I'm sorry but that was just too much for me on a Monday afternoon!

FeatheredTail · 20/07/2015 16:30

MFMV: I think I have stopped bleeding. Feels momentous.

I usually ice very early in my cycle (fertile period cd 11-15) so already started peeing on my CBFM (not a fertile day) to see whether my cycle has normalised or not post mc....

Discofairypants · 20/07/2015 17:20

Congrats auf!

Sorry she got you chat!

Cd18 today ...jizzathon over as DH gone away for a few days so hoping I iced when I thought I did to catch the little eggy! Cycles normally 30/31 days so we'll see! Either way, if AF comes on time I'll be pleased I'm back to 'normal'.

Haha just ... Know the feeling ... And I was at a spa this morning Shock

FeatheredTail · 20/07/2015 17:23

Pahahahaha just caught just's jizz pants!

MrsTattoo · 20/07/2015 17:23

Congratulations Auf great news!!Smile
When are you due?
Another one joining the March Mayhem, theres something in the water with the last couple of freds Grin

I'm day 6 with no caffeine now due to BFP, the headaches and tiredness sucks. But has to be healthier than multiple coffees, cokes & red bulls Blush Also instantly quit the fags and I gave the bottles of wine that were chilling in my fridge to my sisterSad
But I have got a few weeks off work at the moment so don't have to explain the sudden 'health kick' just yet and I can nap when I want, I'm so sleepy!! zzzz

justtheonethen · 20/07/2015 17:50

Hurrah feather Star for you

disco gx you timed it right. Spa jizz!

Well done tattoo enjoy the snoozing!

Wasn't wearing pants so it just ran down my leg Blush

jellypi3 · 20/07/2015 17:54

mrs t I found decaf coffee was tolerable as a substitute to coffee. Decaf tea is just wrong. But well done you on cutting out. I had my first diet coke in ages today, didn't enjoy it. Gonna be buzzing now though.

MrsTattoo · 20/07/2015 18:06

jelly I will buy some decaf coffee but am most upset that they don't do decaf pods for my coffee machine Sad instant for me from now on I guess!

But on the plus side my DH did go to the shop and buy me 6 bottles (1.5ltr each) of decaf diet coke Grin
It made me cry. I blamed the baby Blush He looked very Hmm at me because of the tears while gripping a bottle and staring at him for about 10 minutes ha!

lildottie · 20/07/2015 18:50

I switched to decaff tea when we started trying. you get used to it pretty quickly.

MyBlackCat · 20/07/2015 19:25

Congrats auf that's great great news Smile

Back when I started ttc I treated every night out as if it was my last and promptly went out and got hammered. 18 months later I think I need to curb it as I am over doing it too frequently... you heard it here first I'm going dry for at least two weeks Wink

bellybuttonfluffy · 20/07/2015 19:30

Woohoo! Congrats Auf

Decaf coffee is so pointless! It's what we have in my work, and I have to bring in my own secret stash. I agree it tastes the same but still, the point of coffee is the buzz surely!? I'd rather just have a drink of tea or juice otherwise..

This is going to be a hell of a period. I feel like it's going to be more like 2 rolled into the one. There might be a repeat of the shining elevator scene in bed which happened during my last period. Ohhh god, it's not even going to be the witch, what's worse than a witch?

poppyseedbagel · 20/07/2015 19:32

BlackCat I feel the same! Not been as long for me yet, but I find myself celebrating a BFN with drinking anything and everything.. I also feel the need to give friends and family a great big hint that I'm not upduffed. Couldn't deal with the questions when it's not happening for us yet.

poppyseedbagel · 20/07/2015 19:36

Blush had to google caffeine in tea. Did NOT realise it was so high! Never even heard of decaf tea!

justtheonethen · 20/07/2015 19:37

poppy and black I do know what you mean but probably a good idea to curb it a bit!

poppy are you new? Or am I being thick?

justtheonethen · 20/07/2015 19:38

Think current advice is it's fine to have a bit of caffeine so I wouldn't freak out too much!

bellybuttonfluffy · 20/07/2015 19:49

Apologies! It is I! Poppy is my alter ego, for posting about things non-conception related.

Changed it to talk about something dog-related and forgot to change it back.

justtheonethen · 20/07/2015 20:05

Ah I see!

bellybuttonfluffy · 20/07/2015 20:06

Anyone in need of a giggle?
