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.

keep I don't drink anyway, so it's not an issue for me Smile DH has cut his intake down though

AmeliaNeedsHelp · 22/08/2015 21:22

Thanks keep. I'm cutting down cos I'm getting married in dec and want to fit in to my dress. I don't drink to excess at any one time, it's more like a glass or two most days.

AmeliaNeedsHelp · 22/08/2015 21:22

Sorry, that should say WE are getting married. DP keeps raising eyebrows at me every time I say 'my' wedding.

MyBlackCat · 22/08/2015 21:27

Hi amelia waves

I think the pg tests I have must be out of date now, I won't test until the witch is late and she hasn't been for months and months Angry

I've now not had a drink for 35 days Smile never drunk loads but worth a try as nothing else seems to work Wink

Keepatit · 22/08/2015 21:30

amelia I used to refer to it as my wedding Grin

Maybe I should stop drinking then. I drink waaay too much I reckon (and so does my mum).

It's diet coke with my Malibu though Grin

I'll finish this bottle of Malibu off then I might consider stopping!

ChatEnOeuf · 22/08/2015 21:42

Welcome Amelia - it's definitely your wedding :)

Wait4nothing · 22/08/2015 22:07

Welcome Amelia
I will try on the shagging front! He reckons he is warn out from the holiday wuss but I can be consistent.
Due to the holiday I haven't restricted drinking but I'm going to cut back now (prob let myself have a cider at the quiz and a glass or two of wine at the weekend)

Keepatit · 22/08/2015 22:11

See I will have to stop completely because I can just have 'a glass' mine is normally a bottle, or two and half bottles as most recently has been (wine, of all things)

YouBastardSockBalls · 22/08/2015 22:23

Can I join?? I'm sort of dreading being pregnant again (if it even happens) but we do want a third DC so I suppose there's no way around it.

I have a 2 year old and a 1 year old, both EMCS so yes I'm probably mad but I just want to get it over with! Grin

YouBastardSockBalls · 22/08/2015 22:24

Reading that back - I'm not really so negative and moany, honest! Grin

Ain626 · 22/08/2015 23:34

Hello amelia and you! (Did I miss someone?)

Nfmv: still pink tinged cm. Had some sharp pains low down earlier. Mood = grumpy, but then I have been up since 4am, and I think it's now about half 11 UK time.. (its only half 5 here, supposed to be going out for dinner in an hour)

ill (think it was you who asked) I'm currently in memphis, TN)

lildottie · 22/08/2015 23:49

keep I gave it up completely, along with caffeine when we started ttc. I wasn't a big drinker but would drink a couple of times a week and some weeks a glass or 2 of wine a night after work. I barely drink now, and won't be until after the ivf bfp/pg/birth/bf it gas been linked to failed implantation I. women and affects sperm quality in men so of strongly suggest you cut down if not stop. maybe do the caner research dryathlon in September and help a good cause at the same time?

Hi amelia and you

coribeth · 22/08/2015 23:54

Evening viroids, well Lil my daughter getting pg was deffo accident however it's a baby what's not to be excited about! And yes Pretzel would be funny if we were both pg at same time as it would be history repeating itself as my mum and I were!
As for alcohol I'm not really a drinker so just don't bother dp enjoys a can or ten but has gone cold turkey since we started the Clomid as doc told him it might be affecting his motility reckons he's not missing it in the slightest but does now have ice cream addiction!
Gx for you Wait! Hi and welcome Amelia and you!

AmeliaNeedsHelp · 23/08/2015 00:15

A brand new baby is exciting no matter why he/she was conceived cori. Is this your first grandchild?

Maybe cutting out alcohol might be a good plan. Fertility wise and general health wise. I start back at school in a week, that seems like a sensible time to start.

ChatEnOeuf · 23/08/2015 05:59

Welcome YouBastard Grin

On the way to Spa for the GP, excited!
Congrats for your DD Cori

MyBlackCat · 23/08/2015 08:02

Wellcome youbastard great name Wink

NFMV: none - got 5 shags in this fertile window which is good for us and now twotting

Off to body pump shortly - must be mad Blush

coribeth · 23/08/2015 08:10

Amelia yes first grandchild excited!
Thanks Chat!

Mermaid36 · 23/08/2015 08:25

Meh. Didn't even get chance to POAS. The bastard witch arrived this morning. Angry

Tinktheterrible · 23/08/2015 08:53

Huge congratulations cori one of my friends is 39 and her eldest is 19 and 6mths (ish) pg!! It was planned and alot of women in their family have their babies young. My family are all age 30 plus mums. As I will be. Isn't it funny how it follows on the generations. Flowers hope you get to go through it together this time! The Jaggers did it recently didn't they, and said it was an amazing experience.
Hang on, she isn't laindon is she? She was 21 and due to poas this weekend!! Grin

Welcome you bastard just go for it, less thinking, more shagging in that situation I think! Great name btw Grin

Welcome amelia congrats on the wedding. Smile

ill hope you're managing to keep your shit together on the clomid?

lil nearly there!

ain wow Memphis! Are you a country singer in rl? Grin I get pink slime on icing if that helps.

mermaid Cake Brew

Have fun chat

My GP prescribed me wine and fun times actually, so there you go, must do what the good lady says! Wink although keep I think if I tried to keep up with you I'd make myself very very ill! Complete lightweight over here Blush

SockQueen · 23/08/2015 10:01

Congratulations cori! How exciting for you.

Keepatit I haven't stopped drinking alcohol, but I'm not a big drinker anyway. Given how long it's taken, it would be a big pain to think of sufficient excuses for all that time!

Mermaid36 · 23/08/2015 10:07

sock I gave up drinking way before ttc, mostly because of all my fitness training. It's meant that no one has cottoned on to the fact that we're ttc Grin

Wait4nothing · 23/08/2015 10:39

Pin still waiting for the witch - managed a shag last night but she hasn't appeared yet - I'm sure she will tomorrow morning before I buy a test!
Congrats Cori - gx for a mother daughter pregnancy (like father of the bride 2!)

coribeth · 23/08/2015 11:20

Haven't watched that one Wait, maybe it could be my day off film this arvo! And yes my g's are very tightly x'd my opk had faintest second line today so think that follie might be about to pop!
Tink I was 17 when I fell pg with my eldest if only it was as easy these days! and really enjoyed growing up with my kids but really looking forward to having a little one now too when it eventually happens don't suppose there is any right or wrong age there are pros and cons to both!
Thanks Sock!

Keepatit · 23/08/2015 11:29

Looks like I'll be stopping drinking then!

What me get my bfp just a month later Confused

Welcome youbastard - loving the name Grin

tink it's only been recently that I've been drinking so much! Normally I'll probably have 1 bottle that lasts me the weekend... But in recent weeks I've been having 2.5 bottles in one night (not every day Grin ) I don't drink during the week.

What can I say, I loves wine! I guess I also see it as a bit of a release - work is manic all the time and with TTC being unsuccessful thus far, it's a way of me forgetting it for a bit I suppose. Until the next day that is - when the hangover kicks in!

Where is laid - she's gone quiet, have I just missed her posts?

justtheonethen · 23/08/2015 11:39

Welcome youbastard and Amelia!

mermaid Sad

I don't drink that much so I'm not giving up. Quite frankly I need some fun in my life!

laindons disappeared, wonder why? Hoping she's Cori's daughter too!
