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 <strong>kitten</strong> = 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.

Jizz in a bra = how we transport the jizz to the Sperm Queen

Shagging like <strong>Something</strong> = 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 <strong>Lemon</strong> = 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.

Tink I'm really glad you got answers and that you've got a good consultant. Hopefully things will progress a bit more now and you know it's nothing sinister so can put your mind at rest.

Ill I hope your egg and DH's sperm are getting jiggy with it as we speak

I'm assuming no one has heard from Lil? If you're lurking Lil I hope you're ok Flowers

jellypi3 · 02/09/2015 08:40

i'll tag lil on fb to see if she's ok

Keepatit · 02/09/2015 08:56

pee do you normally spot prior to AF?

How long has everyone been ttc for now? In the forever I seem to have been a member for JS we've had so many new people join up!

I forgot to mention earlier, I dreamt a BFP and joined the grads!

JustMeAndHim · 02/09/2015 09:08

Keep maybe it's a sign! I dreamt last night that DH wanted to leave me...hope that's not a sign Confused

We are officially on cycle 2 but I've been off the pill since Oct 14 and we've not been hugely careful. What about you?

Keep us updated Jelly

Keepatit · 02/09/2015 09:11

Oh I hope yours isn't a sign justme !

I love dreams... I used to have a book that translated what dreams could mean. No idea where that book got to. Mine is probably because of the tests we are having and struggle ttc that it's subconsciously and very much consciously playing on my mind.

I've been off the pill since August 14 and we started ttc straight away practically.

Peenut · 02/09/2015 09:55

Keep I do have a few days of false starts before AF properly arrives. Started tracking it in more detail so normal for me but could totally be implantation bleeding 10 days PO, not that I think that every month!

Also, got up to wee twice in night last night but sure that's nothing related to being upduffed though symptom, a symptom!

I came off the pill in a 'we'll just see what happens' approach to baby making Dec 14. Then about three months ago readdressed our approach having not made a baby by randomly having sex on a Tuesday.

JustMeAndHim · 02/09/2015 09:55

I definitely find things in my subconscious play on my dreams.

It's quite hard keeping optimistic about it all I think. I naively thought that when I came off the pill it would happen straight away. It seems to be in my thoughts all the time and I'm not sure how to avoid worrying about it to be honest although I know everyone says that makes it worse!

Peenut · 02/09/2015 09:57

Just I know what you mean, I thought I'd look at DH and end up preggo not taking the pill. Not as easy as they lead you to believe in GCSE biology!

Keepatit · 02/09/2015 10:04

JustMe it is very difficult trying not to think about it. I'm home alone today and I'm literally going to the loo 3-4 times an hour, lower back pain, boobages hurt and veiny, tired - literally can't be bothered to move now I've sat down, bloated, and a head that feels like it's made of wool Hmm had some twinges but not like my typical AF ones.

If DH was home and I was keeping busy doing stuff I would be fine - but because I'm alone and not busy, I'm stewing on it. I caved this morning and did a test but it was bfn again... It wasn't fmu.

I might just go to sleep.

JustMeAndHim · 02/09/2015 10:16

No not at all. I was also never told that the pill could mess up your cycle to badly. The last one I was on wreaked havoc with mine Angry hey ho, nothing can be done now!

JustMeAndHim · 02/09/2015 10:18

Keep this was exactly what I was like last month. It's horrible I totally sympathise with you. I wound myself up to a right state. Be kind to yourself Flowers Sleep sounds like a good option to me!

CarrotPuff · 02/09/2015 10:50

Tink glad to hear you're feeling positive after your appointment. Hopefully they find something easily fixable!

Keep gx you're just one of those who don't get a BFP until you're 6 weeks gone.

Can't remember who mentioned cycles being short after bfing - mine were 21-24 days for first 3 or 4 cycles but then they went back to normal.

Right, so I've tidied up the Stats sheet a little bit. I've removed months TTC from the upduffed ones as the count just carries on so it's inaccurate. I will ask some of the Grads of their BFP dates so that we have some more months to BFP numbers.

I think we are missing quite a few new people on there - if you could have a look if you are there (it's in alphabetical order), and either add yourself to the list (please copy the formula in "Months TTC", don't just put a number in there) or post your stats here and I will add you.

JustMeAndHim · 02/09/2015 11:45

Carrot can you add me please? I don't want to fuck up the sheet

My stats are:

Name: JustMeAndHim
Age: 30
DC's: 0
TTC since: July 15 - cycle 2

Thanks!

Keepatit · 02/09/2015 12:20

I've just started crying watching fucking HOLLYOAKS!

ChatEnOeuf · 02/09/2015 13:15

Tink that sounds fab. Mole with a hat +/- a laser might be just what your insides need. Good news MrTink's swimmers are good 'uns too.

Oh Keep, not out yet lovey. Sleep sounds good, or a long walk. What are you watching Hollyoaks for? Can't answer your 'how long' question without the necessary background: I've been here 15? months - since the days of the Jason Donner Van (think only Lil will remember that one). Started TTC number two in Jan '14 - miscarried March and August (twins) then conceived DS in Sept...nicknamed Indestructabean/TinyChat he was stillborn in May. Been TTC DC3 since just before our consultant gave us the green light in July.

Ill hoping there's a disco going on in your womble right now!

Keepatit · 02/09/2015 13:34

Hey chat I have no idea why I was watching HOLLYOAKS. I used to watch it years ago and due to boredom decided to see what's kicking off. It just happened to be when a teen was giving birth Hmm

Just getting ready for my interview... I'm actual nervous!

justtheonethen · 02/09/2015 14:05

Will catch up when back from work but just to let you know I've heard from lil and she's fine. Just can't keep up without app!

Good luck keep

lildottie · 02/09/2015 14:26

Awww you all missed me. Have just caught up on 4 pages over my lunch so forgive me for not replying to everyone. Ice now flipped the mobile sight back to earliest first in the hope it will help me keep up!

tink so glad it was relatively good news at fc. I know you aren't keen on ivf bit its worth having the conversation. And if adoption is what you decide if tubes are blocked at least you'll be further down the road before the end of this year.

chat I do remember the Jason donner van. I believe we had dulcet to thank for it?

I've been ttc since Nov 12 so 2years 10months. And been here since js14.

Ill glad all going well with you. Hopefully I'll only be a few weeks behind you joining the grads. What was your trigger? Mines pregnyl.

justtheonethen · 02/09/2015 15:20

Glad your appointment went well tink. Thank you for sharing, that's put my mind at ease.

Flowers for all the viroids feeling down today.

FeatheredTail · 02/09/2015 15:56

Tink - fab attitude and glad you have a consultant that you're happy with!

FeatheredTail · 02/09/2015 15:57

Yay, Lil's back! I was getting worried that there would be no one around to talk me down from testing stupidly early.

JustMeAndHim · 02/09/2015 16:07

Glad you're ok Lil we were all worried about you!

Feathered I hope Lil will still come back from the grads for the occasional hooyah!

justtheonethen · 02/09/2015 16:09

I will take on lil's hooyahing duty when she goes to the grads.....I can be mean Wink

CarrotPuff · 02/09/2015 16:09

Good luck with interview Keep!

All done JustMe.

lildottie · 02/09/2015 16:34
