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.

chat i'm still at the "too tired to even think about opening my legs" phase! my bed time is about 8:30-9:00pm these days! How i'll cope with a baby I don't know! And yes, feed her lots of waffles. To be fair she actually lives in Paris so she probably eats more pate than waffles!

Man I miss pate...

Sorry about the BFN chat, still got my gx for you. And how about marmite, salad cream, baked beans?

fruitlovingmonkey · 11/08/2015 09:10

Hello everyone

jellypi3 · 11/08/2015 09:27

HP sauce, good shout! And bacon, can't beat british bacon!

Laindons · 11/08/2015 09:40

Ladies, I need a slap on the wrists, but I just want to let this out..

I've 8 days until AF is due and I don't feel pregnant one bit, I just feel completely normal and as if I will just come on. Is there any hope?

jellypi3 · 11/08/2015 09:45

there's no point dwelling on in lain, if she comes she comes, and if she doesn't she won't. I can't really remember how I felt before my BFP, but I don't remember feeling "pg".

lildottie · 11/08/2015 09:52

lain my one and only bfp I was testing daily from embryo transfer. no actually from hcg trigger shot so I could see it go negative and believe a real bfp. I got my first squinter of a line at the equivalent of 10dpo and my only symptoms were wierd smelling wee and a lump in my chest sort of feeling. I definitely did not feel pg. and unfortunately what gives u pg symptoms is the same thing that gives you f symptoms... progesterone. chill, ul drive urself mad!

honeysucklejasmine · 11/08/2015 09:59

I didn't feel pregnant at all when I got my bfp. I was actually on my way to the gynae to discuss possible interventions to help me get pregnant.

jellypi3 · 11/08/2015 10:04

so was i honey Grin DP Had his jizz in cup appointment the next week and I had my smear test booked in later that week (first ever one!).

But as lil says, the hormones that give you pg symptoms, ie sore boobs, bloating etc. are the same hormones that surge post ovulation. The only exception is the sickness that is caused by HCG, but I found my nausea didn't really start properly until about week 7 (what I thought was sickness in the early stages was waaaaaaaay of what actually hit me later on!)

TriJo · 11/08/2015 10:05

Looking back I had a few signs but I just never joined the dots! Was a bit bloated, boobs getting bigger (as in it looked like boob was trying to creep out over a middle seam on both sides of a bra that had been a perfect fit at Bravissimo in May) and my husband says he noticed a change in my mood in early-mid July, I was feeling a bit tired but just put it down to tri training etc.

FeatheredTail · 11/08/2015 10:39

I had no symptoms whatsoever until I had my BFP Lain. Just felt very mildly premenstrual.

I now feel WILDLY premenstrual and am getting annoyed waiting for AF to arrive.

FeatheredTail · 11/08/2015 10:40

Chat - earl grey.

ColdFeetWarmHeart · 11/08/2015 10:57

chat get plenty of tea bags!!

When I got bfp with dd I didn't have many symptoms. Just cramps or "period pain" with no bleeding for about a week. I just felt like af was coming. I didn't really get any other symptoms until after bfp - bloating, tiredness, sickness etc kicked in about week 5 or 6.

Well I now feel deflated. I had bought some nice stuff to wear in the bedroom; a babydoll and a chemise type thing. Look sexy in theory, but awful on me. My breasts are just spilling out of them! ! They're too big for anything other than reinforced industrial type bras!!! Grrrr!!!!
Dh has got no chance of me wearing anything sexy ever again!!!

bellybuttonfluffy · 11/08/2015 11:29

WE HAVE TAKEOFF!

AF is fully here. I'm so relieved I don't even feel disappointed. Gx for a short one so we can get back on the horse!

Woo Hoo!!! passes out party hats and doughnuts

I'm still really unwell. The fever had ravaged me yesterday before I quickly developed an incredible chill. Boiled myself in a roasting bath for 45mins last and still felt like I was streaking through the Antarctic. Back to the fever today, and I have no energy to shower but I stink! All this sweating is not pleasant Hmm

ColdFeetWarmHeart · 11/08/2015 11:57

Oh poor you fluffy - hopefully the fever will break soon and all this sweating will soon end!! I prescribe lots of fluids, and 2 paracetamols every 8 hours (DISCLAIMER: I am not qualified - all medical training comes from watching episodes of ER, 24 hours in A&E, OBEM and other such programmes)

Laindons · 11/08/2015 11:59

Thank you ladies, the only thing I feel is this gut feeling of paranoia.. Like I'm about to walk out on stage or something..

I forget I'm TTC so I know it's not the pregnancy wait, I was at my desk earlier and was thinking 'hold on why you nervous?' My life is mediocre and boring.. So it's not excitement.

Laindons · 11/08/2015 12:01

Sorry to hear Fluffy, but at least you're positive about it! Roll on next fertile period Wink

lildottie · 11/08/2015 12:12

can't comment on campiness with bfp as the egg collection made me feel like I'd been trampled for about a week!

lain I think best thing i s to try and focus in what you are doing, and on one thing at a time when ur feeling like that. hope it passes Thanks

cold he's going to take it off, so dies it matter if the girls are spilling out a bit?

Mermaid36 · 11/08/2015 12:13

coldfeet big boobs don't need sexy undies to be alluring!

Laindons · 11/08/2015 12:17

Thank you Lil hun Smile

ColdFeetWarmHeart · 11/08/2015 14:29

lil to a degree no, it doesn't matter if they are spilling out a bit. But they are spilling out A LOT! I'm sure hubby won't care, but I would like to feel a little sexier if you know what I mean. These puppies are too big and heavy so are dragging down the chemise thing....not a good look!!

mermaid it gets to a stage where big boobs need help lol. I'm 28 but weight/gravity and breastfeeding is taking its toll a little bit.

I miss my old 34DD boobs.........(wistful emoji).....perhaps if I lose some weight I will look more like Kelly Brook than Jo Brand!! Hahaha

ChatEnOeuf · 11/08/2015 14:37

HP sauce! Great call. I have a catering pack of PG tips already, and Marmite is the work of the devil. Excellent ideas, amazed none of you have suggested a FRER - keep them coming Grin

Lain honestly, just keep shagging and forget which day it is.

Lil of course you can hop in - there's room in the footwell...?

Woop for CD1 Fluffy!

No BFN Jelly, I'm not testing for a week or more

Laindons · 11/08/2015 14:42

Chat, please advise me how when OH doesn't want sex Hmm :(
