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.

Canaries?

Tinkfromlovejoy · 17/08/2015 12:30

Canaries has my vote for Europe in winter too. Puerto Mogan in Gran Canaria looks nice, or maybe Cyprus but check the weather. Or you could try a weeks early season skiing somewhere with a glacier; Passo Tonale in Italy is ok year round certain years?

We've just decided on 2 weeks in Mauritius in October, can't believe my luck Smile those sorts of hols happen to other people!!

winterfellmistress · 17/08/2015 12:39

Ooh tink I'm green with envy

kezaroo · 17/08/2015 13:07

Hey viroids!

So I've been surrounded by babies, toddlers and teenagers this weekend with the odd "so when are you gunna have 'em" thrown in! Sad

Now on the 3 day countdown for the doctors appointment - actually nervous (I don't 'do' nervous normally).

Only DTD once so far this cycle (okay, since AF disappeared on Thursday). We were too drunk on Saturday night and too hungover yesterday! Blush

I'm away tomorrow night and he's away from Friday to Sunday so need to get as much in in between that time!! Why is it there always seems to be obstacles?!

FeatheredTail · 17/08/2015 13:08

Whoa, seriously jealous Tink ! Amazing!

All the Croatia talk has made me want to go back again and scoot around lovely Vis drinking home made plonk and grilled lamb.

I would like to go away for a mini break for my birthday in October. Keep dropping not-so-subtle hints hoping DH picks up on them. Luxury hotel in Scotland or an apartment getaway to Budapest, please DH!

FeatheredTail · 17/08/2015 13:11

I hear you Kez. DH's work hours are a serious obstacle. Looks like I'm due to ovulate next week - probably around Wednesday but anytime from Sunday through to Sunday looks like my fertile time.

Tuesday/Wednesday night shags are really not the best. I'm in between 7-8pm and DH will be home anytime between 830-1030. Phhh!

Mermaid36 · 17/08/2015 13:11

We're off for a week in Belgium in September...a small town called Mechelen.... supposed to be off the tourist track a bit, but still has nice restaurants etc and you can get into Brussels for the day on the train if you like...can't bloody wait!

lildottie · 17/08/2015 13:16

dh wants to go away Oct/Nov. I have to keep reminding him the plan is I won't be able to fly!

do you ever wonder if any of our dhs are lurking and reading all our madness?

jellypi3 · 17/08/2015 13:29

I've often wondered that lil, i choose to be of the opinion that he would be horrified if he knew what i put on here so is blissfully unaware of the going on's!

I'm jealous of all the holiday chat! I want to go away so badly!

5hell · 17/08/2015 13:52

having returned to work after a weeks hol, I already want to book another!

news from EPU - not bad (bordering on good!)...all appropriate structures seen, including embryo + heartbeat! measuring slightly small 6w3d, but not too worried as at that size the error in measurement must be quite large. i do have a perigesational sac bleed which probably explains the bleeds, so have been told to take it easy....no sex, exercise, heavy lifting, rushing around or even long walks.

kez i'm sure the dr will be fine, and will put you on the path to your bfp (or you'll invoke a law of sod bfp soon after the appointment). make some notes in advance to help you feel in control. gx

FeatheredTail · 17/08/2015 13:53

If the DHs do read this thread then I hope mine has recognised who I am.

Waves at DH

BUDAPEST or SCOTLAND or PARIS.

And a bottle of Chanel Chance please.

FeatheredTail · 17/08/2015 13:55

5hell I'm so pleased for you - a heartbeat at 6w3d!!! Take it easy - lots of pampering and not doing anything much Smile Star

ChatEnOeuf · 17/08/2015 14:15

Great news 5hell!

Mermaid that's right near me! Have fun :)

Mauritius you say Tink, I like his style.

winterfellmistress · 17/08/2015 14:46

5hell great news! So pleased for you

I have my doc appt on Friday, similarly nervous. Fully expecting to be told to go away.

If dp is reading I would like diamonds for my upcoming birthday please Grin

5hell · 17/08/2015 14:55

thanks feathered well i 'should' be about 8w today, so i guess you'd expect to see a hb by then, but measuring a bit small i guess...will try not to fret about it until 12w scan now Hmm

Peenut2000 · 17/08/2015 15:23

Excellent news 5hell! Take it easy ...

Kez I've just found out DHs husband's aunty and uncle will be joining us on family hol to a villa, with my yet to be born niece or nephew. (Sis-in-law is currently in labour! Can't wait to meet new baby/ hear groce and morbid details that I shouldn't ask about the birth.)

The last time I saw said uncle he asked me, about 5 times, so, are you jealous then? Pointing at sis-in-laws bump.

F OFF. If the words attempt to leave his lips on holiday I'll fling a sangria at him and cause a scene.

Great news 5hell Try to not worry until the 12w scan now - where of course I have my fingers crossed and I'm sure everything is going to be fine. Flowers

Pee I agree with winterfell - push him in the pool. Maybe just push him in the pool anyway for good measure. Grin

I am genuinely wondering if it is okay to nap in the middle of the afternoon when I have no reason to be this tired... Maybe I'll just go and read my book for a bit instead. Not quite as bad as having an afternoon nap... Smile

justtheonethen · 17/08/2015 15:36

Oops sorry that was me using non ttc nickname Grin

ain I'm feeling same, making some jam then definitely going for a nap/book read

Mermaid36 · 17/08/2015 15:41

Ooh Chat - what's it like? DH has travelled there on business a few times, but I've never been. Problem is all he ever see's when he's away with work are hotels/warehouses/offices....

Peenut2000 · 17/08/2015 15:42

Winter Excellent idea! But part of me would like to turn round and tell him the truth:

YES THANK YOU FOR POINTING IT OUT. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN MEEEEEEEE! I've had loads of sex for ages now and am not successfully upduffed, you nob.

But pushing into the pool is probably loads better, actions speak louder than words Wink

justtheonethen · 17/08/2015 15:43

Maybe you could do both Grin what a nob.

Tinkfromlovejoy · 17/08/2015 16:56

5hell phew! Must have been amazing to hear that little heartbeat after all you've been through. Feet up and legs crossed Brew

All those with apps coming up take it all with a pinch of salt. If you don't get the responses you want just change gp. If they make a hasty diagnosis or put the fear of God into you make sure you request referrals and don't worry too much. I've had millions of diagnosis over the years, all of which have been disproven over time. Fertility is a very delicate balance which can change very quickly.

Big cat just bought me a massive toad. It didn't seem to mind and has been rehoused in a field nearby! Big cat is now cross and taking it out on my tights Hmm

For the ardent cleaners out there Aldi have a steam mop in for just over twenty quid! Just got mine and am all of a quiver to get it plugged in!

As for Mauritius it's not actually booked yet so mustn't get too excited just yet. lil you not planning on flying upduffed then? I thought there was a recent report that actively recommended holibobs whilst with bean? Maybe I was reading the daily fail at the time though Wink

JustMeAndTheDog · 17/08/2015 17:33

5hell that's amazing, gx for you that it carries on going smoothly

Pee balls to that. Though hats are off to you for going on holidays with your sis in law and a new born. Not sure I could manage that at the mo.

We've just booked a hol too. In this country but will just be glad to get away. hoping to get all the jizz Mauritius sounds amazing!

justtheonethen · 17/08/2015 17:47

I love my steam mop Grin

Good point on docs app tink, will try not to worry about it too much.
