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.

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

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.

I'm going to announce my pregnancy with my scan picture and that text, that'll keep them guessing! Haha!

Ain626 · 28/09/2015 04:09

Haha Lil!

Need to go back to bed. Got up to watch the lunar eclipse. Anyone else see it? Was beautiful.

YogaPants · 28/09/2015 04:47

ain I'm up and thanks to your post looked out the window to catch it around 4:30 when the moon was just showing a sliver. It's a gorgeous night for a lunar eclipse!

bellybuttonfluffy · 28/09/2015 06:33

Love that facebook post Lil! Hadn't seen it until you linked. I wish I was brave enough to share it, but I think it would just end up bringing it to the attention of those who haven't yet been nosy or asked.

The clouds covered the eclipse for me Sad. Woke up at 2.30am after a nightmare about beads Blush Reference to my jewellery making class yesterday, which was within a shop with far too many beads. Ended up feeling very overwhelmed in my dream last night... when shopping for beads. Could not get back to sleep, so I'm up for the day. Showered, dressed, washing on, ironing done, kitchen scrubbed.

POAS again, thank god IC arrived. It's like pringles for me, once I start, it's impossible to stop! Definitely out of the running this month. I'd be showing positives by now, going by our last shag. Checked the app, and turns out we went through a bit of a dry spell - 3 and a half weeks without a shag! I had my hopes pinned on the date I thought I ovulated, which has ended up being wrong through lack of AF. I'm pretty shit at this ovulation guessing thing, and I've now got the fear I'm not ovulating at all!

YouBastardSockBalls · 28/09/2015 08:23

I've been thinking hmmmm, js hasn't been updated for ages.....totally missed this new

Just realised I'm on CD26, and usually have 23/24 day cycles, however they've been a bit all over the shop since last baby. Should I POAS???? Absolutely no symptoms whatsoever, zero, nada. So fully expecting witch any time soon.

Will go rtft Smile

bellybuttonfluffy · 28/09/2015 08:27

POAS Sock!
Very jealous of your 23/34 day cycles Envy

YouBastardSockBalls · 28/09/2015 08:34

I'll go stock up at the pound shop in a bit Grin

Unless ttc they're the bane of my life belly Grin

bellybuttonfluffy · 28/09/2015 08:36

Gx Sock! Yes there is that I suppose. Smile

lildottie · 28/09/2015 08:55

Morning viroids. Not feeling too bad considering dh had us up for the blood moon!

Had final call from embryologist this morning. The final 4 are all not progressing as they should now so are not worth freezing. Bit sad we don't have any to freeze, and a bit concerned over what that means for the transferred ones (though of course they were better quality than the others) but there's nothing more I can do now. Just wait!

bellybuttonfluffy · 28/09/2015 08:58

Sorry lil, but as you say, the ones growing in you now are the best ones. When's the TWW up? It's an awful game this waiting business.

ChatEnOeuf · 28/09/2015 09:01

Oh that's a shame, Lil, but as you say, you have the best ones nestling in your womble right now.

Yes YB, pee!

Fluffy - hopefully not out yet.

LondonGirl83 · 28/09/2015 09:07

Sorry lil

Gx socks!

That article is great. I don't mind close friends asking, however the day I turned 30 it seems like it became the first thing even virtual strangers would ask about!

FeatheredTail · 28/09/2015 10:25

Sorry you didn't have any left over to freeze Lil. Good news that you got the best ones! When do you POAS? Hope you're feeling ok and taking it easy.

Without wanting to be all "I've had a BFP/I know the light and the true way" blah blah blah, I can now confirm to anyone who was wondering, that the TWW is a piece of piss compared to the 12 week wait. I don't know how I'm going to wait another 5 weeks to know whether everything is fine or not.

Rarghh.

5hell · 28/09/2015 10:50

gx lil
I'm sure your top of the class embryos in their rightful intended destination are much happier than those in a (albeit very nice) petri dish, so worry not Flowers

KeepTheHope · 28/09/2015 11:04

Lil I agree with 5hell, the best ones are in the best place, gx for you.

POAS socks!

jellypi3 · 28/09/2015 11:15

sorry to hear the other embies aren't being frozen lil :( but agree with others, the others are in the best place! still keeping everything crossed for you!

lildottie · 28/09/2015 11:17

OTD (official test date) is Thursday 8th. Haven't decided when I'm actually going to test yet. Not testing daily like last time.

feathered one thing I'm grateful for doing ivf, if I get s bfp I have a 3ww for first scan as they do a viability scan at 7 weeks. Then it should "only" be a 5ww to 12w scan. It's like a staged waiting process! (I'm so going to end up paying for a private scan in between!)

ChatEnOeuf · 28/09/2015 11:34

Think I'll be camping in the scan dept if I get one!

lildottie · 28/09/2015 11:57

I think you deserve your own exclusive rights to the scanner in the commune chat!

fruitlovingmonkey · 28/09/2015 12:03

Lil I'm with the other viroids, the best ones are inside your womble right now. Throughtout my tww I had the Wombats song "Let's dance to joy cell division" in my head. That's what's happening inside you!
Feathered my dear are you going for an early scan? No idea how you can manage until 12 weeks, unless you're superwoman.

ChatEnOeuf · 28/09/2015 12:06

Lil Grin I'll share.

Feathered you should totally ask if they do reassurance scans given you've previously MC'd. If not, can you afford a private scan?

YB Any news?

Hope the witch stays away Just

bellybuttonfluffy · 28/09/2015 12:22

Let's dance to joy division
and celebrate the irony Grin

Love that song Fruit and I forgot it existed! -away to download now-

Feathered 12ww is such a long time. Hopefully you will have access to a reassurance scan like chat suggests.

AreYouTheFarmer16 · 28/09/2015 13:04

Hi Chat

Sorry I don't mean to just lurk but I'm not sure I'm qualified to join in! I stopped my pill in June and haven't really had any sign of a proper AF, just some random spotting so I don't feel like I have much chance of getting upduffed at the moment. Hmm

Have any other ladies had experience of this? I know it can take a while to get back to normal for some people so I guess there's not a lot I can do but wait.

Any advice would be very gratefully received.

Keepatit · 28/09/2015 13:14

lil sorry the others aren't freezable X

just me liddle cycle-sharer - have you POAS yet? And yb any news?

DH and I had a huge argument this morning so I am dreading the atmosphere at home later. But I'm in a foul mood so no doubt it'll be me that's caused it all.

Decided I'm ringing the doctors today and I'm going to ask them for a print out of our results. It's still pissing me off how shit they have been at giving us all the info. lil had helped me more than they have Grin

YouBastardSockBalls · 28/09/2015 13:20

It's not quite sheep scanning season yet, so it's been chilling in the attic, with the odd outing to do a few pigs or a dog, but by all means form an orderly queue Grin

I really feel for you though feathered, it feels like such a long time to 12 weeks doesn't it?? DH wouldn't let me scan before ten weeks in case it didn't show up and I worried, so although I had a bit of a head start it's still weeks to wait. Will you do a private scan do you think?

I've bought some cheapie sticks in tesco, might try one later then one in the morning if AF doesn't turn up!
