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)

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.

Oops. It's 4.00am, my bad! Meant Blush

oneyorkshirepud · 25/10/2015 07:08

I know it has gone really fast, quite scary now!
Just baby pud is due on the 19th Dec.... and first babies are statistically most likely to be 6 days late! Ha ha! I've told baby to come at the beginning of Dec otherwise no one will come to its birthday parties and it will feel as though it has no friends. Grin

I still lurk on here and have everything crossed for all of you for bfps, I know that some of you have been trying for a long time now... I know Lil has buggered off for a little bit due to general busyness but I hope her bfp gives you all some hope too. Keep shagging lovely Viroids!!

MyBlackCat · 25/10/2015 07:38

Just checking in from saga land, sorry just if I'd known you were having a pity party I would have invited myself Wink

I'm 9dpo boobs are killing and the cramps have started so just like every other month really so all not that it was much optimism gone. Have to get my appointment for HSG when she arrives which I expect will be wed/thur Sad

LiL if you are lurking I hope all is ok xx

KeepTheHope · 25/10/2015 11:43

AF is here, panic over!! I did get my hopes up for a moment there as she's never late but no, just a tricky little bugger. Might treat myself to a Winelater.

KateBeckett · 25/10/2015 12:24

Boo sorry the witch has arrived keep what a tricky bitch!

KeepTheHope · 25/10/2015 13:12

It seems she's messing us all around this month. Gx for some bfps next month to show her who's boss!

justtheonethen · 25/10/2015 14:53

Oh sorry hope Flowers

KateBeckett · 25/10/2015 15:24

Oh god. In need of massive hooyahs...

So, Friday morning I felt slightly nauseous, yesterday I felt the same. My boobs have expanded (even df noticed that!) and were sore for a few days. I've had af type cramps but no spotting, which I usually get about 3/4 days before the witch arrives. Yesterday and today my mouth has tasted like pennies. I've been swinging between starving and nauseous and bloated. Today I burst into tears for the most ridiculous of reasons.

I've just been to assa and nearly threw up in the fruit aisle because of the banana smell... So i bought a few cheap tests while I was there Blush just done one, and now think I can see the faintest of lines which is so faint it is 100% possible that I have imagined it. I think I have in fact imagined it.

I'm going fucking crazy. Blush Blush Blush

KateBeckett · 25/10/2015 15:30

Df 'can't see shit' Grin and said 'wait a week and we'll do another one. A week?! Angry

honeysucklejasmine · 25/10/2015 15:32

Kate where is the picture?! We need to see this!

Peenut · 25/10/2015 15:34

Kate ... can you really see a faint faint line? You know a line is a line right even if it's very faint? Can you other half see a line?

Maybe test again tomorrow, or in a few days? ! I don't know if I should hooyah you as those symptoms sound very pregnancy like! Remind me how many days PO you are?

KateBeckett · 25/10/2015 15:35

honey I'm almost embarrassed to post it because I'm fairly sure the line exists only in my head! But it's here...

KateBeckett · 25/10/2015 15:37

Peenut, df can't see anything, but refused to come too near something I'd peed on!

Don't know how many dpo, but I'm on cd27, and my cycle varies between 27-31 days.

jellypi3 · 25/10/2015 15:42

Erm I can see a line...

KeepTheHope · 25/10/2015 15:44

Kate I'm pretty sure I can see a very faint line. I think you're going to have to do fmu tomorrow to be 100% though. Others might disagree! Gx for you!

KateBeckett · 25/10/2015 15:47

Eep.

justtheonethen · 25/10/2015 16:14

Can see something too. Get a frer to do now in the morning! Gx

KateBeckett · 25/10/2015 16:15

just they didn't have any at asda, but the ones I bought said 'can be used up to 4 days early' or something like that. I have a few more so will be able to test in the morning if af hasn't shown up!

Justalittlebitblondie · 25/10/2015 16:35

Hello - can I possibly join you - we have decided to go for it again having had a mc (which was result of reckless shagging)... Thought we'd go with the same tactics again - a bit of lovely hand holding would be good

oneyorkshirepud · 25/10/2015 16:37

I can see a line..... Grin

Welcome Blondie

justtheonethen · 25/10/2015 17:37

Welcome blondie we are expert hand holdersrs

kate definitely something there. Did it come up in time frame? Gx tomorrow it's a big fat line!

justtheonethen · 25/10/2015 17:40

honey can't remember if I said thanks for the tip. I think that's what we will do. Tres romantic Grin

Justalittlebitblondie · 25/10/2015 17:51

Thank you - fingers are crossed and see what happens...

honeysucklejasmine · 25/10/2015 17:55

Kate I could see that without even zooming in. You're not imagining it, sweetie. Grin

Just oh yes, it really is!

jellypi3 · 25/10/2015 17:56

Welcome blondi, sorry about your mc.
