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.

Eeeeeee pud!!!!! Hello! So excited about this RL knowing! Life is cool Grin
Hello fellow medic chat! Good luck in the march today sock! I will have to make a good placard for the Northerners march next weekend.... But also sending supportive vibes London-way (shakes fist at Jeremy Hunt)
Goodness it is a small world what with medics and Hodgkin's! I never got the chance to freeze any eggs because it takes too long to harvest them and they had to start chemo asap. But they have said I should be fine because my cycles returned to normal after chemo finished.
Beckett I know exactly what you mean about doom-mongering, I am very prone to it too!
Flowers and hugs to just too Flowers and welcome weather, love the name!
NFMV: The witch is here today after spending a week announcing her impending (though late) presence with cramps, BFNs and hideous acne. Humph.

oneyorkshirepud · 17/10/2015 13:42

Ah boo. Sorry about the witch Corgi, that is proper rubbish. Have a gin. Flowers

KeepTheHope · 17/10/2015 14:43

Good luck with the march sock I hope you get a result.

Ah corgi that sucks. Have some Wine and gx next month is the one for you.

NFMV: I've felt like af might start for the last couple of days, I usually only get this feeling a day at most before it starts and it's not actually due until next Saturday so fuck knows what's going on there. Also, TMI ALERT, just had a lot of creamy CM when I wiped.

Hope everyone's having a good weekend so far. I'm at work for a couple more hours then going to go into town to see some friends briefly and then a relaxing evening at home. So rock 'n' roll on a Saturday night!

LondonGirl83 · 17/10/2015 16:50

Corgi sorry the witch got you this month.

Illiria · 17/10/2015 19:39

Corgi - sorry the witch got you.

I am alone this weekend as DH has a meeting, DCat has been super clingy since he left.

Anyone doing anything fun this weekend?

coribeth · 18/10/2015 00:09

Dp has been putting dd new bedroom furniture together and I have been ahem helping Hmm directing hence row! Make up sex was excellent though Wink total jizzed up.
Good luck on the March sock us nurses are behind you!

Illiria · 18/10/2015 03:42

Grin excellent make up sex definitely classifies as a fun weekend.

YouBastardSockBalls · 18/10/2015 08:17

Morning viroids.

I'm stressing today. Totally iced this month, and been having a few twinges like with last 2 babies. Then this morning 1 year old DC kicked me really really hard right in the womble, low down on the right, and been having different pains ever since.

And now, I can't help but think that there was something sticking there but that she's dislodged it Sad

Ditsy79 · 18/10/2015 08:20

No jizz the past 2 nights due to OH' pesky man flu ??. To be honest he is pretty ill, but I feel a bit pissed off at him for 'choosing' to have the plague when I am supposedly fertile...unreasonable I know!!! Hope you're all having a good wkend. How did the march go sock?

justtheonethen · 18/10/2015 09:27

Morning all!

yb at this stage any bean will be well protected.hooyah!

Haven't caught up.yet but has tink been on?

ChatEnOeuf · 18/10/2015 10:25

Pictures from the marches looked ace yesterday, Sock. Media coverage was fairly decent but gave Jezza too much time to spout his death/stats/lies again. He also totally doesn't get the point that docs and nurses already work seven days a week - it's the rest of the services that don't!

YB your womble is entirely within the pelvis until about 10 weeks, so any little bean will be well padded and protected.

Tell your OH to man up Ditsy! Though this was not met with the response I desired last time I tried it. Apparently I just didn't understand how sick he was. Not very, didn't need admitting therefore fine.

Tink is sunning herself on her tropical paradise holiday, Just.

I love building furniture, Cori. DH hates it, but I need him to lift the heavy bits. He readily accepts that I'm the boss in that departent but he still gets so cross with it all. Quite funny really, though annoying at the time.

Ah yes, lucky cow!

What's everyone up to today?

Keepatit · 18/10/2015 11:18

hey viroids!

On our way back from Devon now. Gutted - had a brilliant holiday and the weather has been lovely. Luckily not back at work until Wednesday though.

I see we have some newbies - welcome to all whose names I have forgotten.

Flowers to those who's AF has turned up.

AF is due Wednesday for me. just how's the boobages? Mind have been hurting since before we went away!! And still are!!

KateBeckett · 18/10/2015 12:08

Happy Sunday lovely viroids!

NFMV- I was too much of a wimp to go to the GP, so I got a canesten swab test thing from morrisons! My ph levels are fine, so nothing nasty going on. Phew! I think it may have just been my body getting used to more shagging and no condoms. Tmi sorry Blush

It's a very busy day for me today just - I have watched an episode of OITNB, am just about to get dressed, and I'm going to re-cover our dining chairs. Living the high life! Still, I am enjoying being able to sleep til 8 whilst I still can.. If the js-ing goes well I'll be getting up early in a year or so!

FeatheredTail · 18/10/2015 15:08

Hello newbies!

Flowers for Just. I'm sure your ttc journey has nothing to do with the abortion you had. Don't let it niggle.

London ovulation tests pick up hcg, so it could be that your body still has a little pregnancy hormone left. That said, if it was negative a few days ago, maybe you're ovulation again. I got my hopes up very soon after my mc and it transpired to be the former, so sending hugs and hope your cycle gets back to normal swiftly. I'm sure it will.

FeatheredTail · 18/10/2015 15:09

*ovulating

LondonGirl83 · 18/10/2015 17:13

Thanks Feathered I tested negative on Thursday and tested negative today so I think the test picked up my LH surge yesterday. I did some reading and having a really short cycle post mc is normal. I had pain on my left side this morning around 5am that was sharp enough to wake me up and my basal temp spiked. Also, I've had EWCM so I'm pretty sure I ovulated. I don't normally use contraband just DTD every few days consistently but as the doctor warned us it could be hard to date any pregnancy I wanted to track everything this first cycle.

DTD with DH yesterday and this morning. We hadn't had sex since before the mc so I'm concerned the quality of the jizz wasn't very good yesterday but we'll just have to wait and see. I'm now in the twot...

LondonGirl83 · 18/10/2015 17:15

Ditsy I agree with Chat! Tell your man to get a grip and get to shagging. DH has had man flu since Monday. Yesterday and today we DTD with him covered in Vicks!

fruitlovingmonkey · 18/10/2015 19:26

Welcome new shaggers!
Glad you had a great holiday Keep, enjoy your days off.
Ditsy I agree, you need to jump your OH regardless of man flu. I got my bfp taking advantage of a poorly DH. He was whinging about being ill but still enjoying a couple of beers so I insisted he was well enough for shagging such a romantic conception
London wtf cycles are always weird but I think it's probably a positive if you're ovulating already. Good work on the shagging.
I had my 12 week scan on Friday and all is good with mini fruit. Such a relief. Hope to see some all of you joining us on the grads fred soon.

LondonGirl83 · 18/10/2015 19:36

Congrats fruit that's super exciting! What a milestone.

justtheonethen · 18/10/2015 19:41

Glad you had a good holiday keep, enjoy your few days off. Got anything planned? The boobages are still sore, but this means nothing to me as they usually are, apart from last month!

I am not totally convinced I have iced yet though...I have either iced really early on cd 10 or 11 and probably missed my chance (although dtd on cd11 and 12) or not yet. I have been doing opks since day 13 (when they arrived) and they were totally blank up to the last few days, normally I would have a near positive for a few days after icing. Anyhoo, yesterday and today got faint but building lines so maybe I am having a crazy late ovulation. Who bloody knows!

fruit glad 12w scan was good Grin

kate never heard of those kits - glad all is okay down there.....could it have been the unfamiliar smell and leakage of all the jizz?

ditsy jump him NOW! The viroids have spoken. Use all your womanly wiles offer him a starter bj

MyBlackCat · 18/10/2015 19:44

Good news fruit

Welcome to new shaggers

NFMV: none - the shagging is done for another month and I'm 2dpo

Had a lazy weekend, I've had the lurgy so not feeling the best plus I've hurt my foot so no running either Sad

On a positive I'm off on holiday Tuesday so need to pack SmileSmileSmile

LondonGirl83 · 18/10/2015 19:45

I read somewhere recently that saliva is a spermicide. Not sure its true but told hubby and so now BJs are firmly off the foreplay menu :)

justtheonethen · 18/10/2015 20:03

Ooh where you going black? Congratulations on completing this month's shagging Grin

Maybe that's where we are going wrong.... we does love a bit of oral! Ill tell dp. He may cry. Any grads out there that got upduffed despite slathering each other with saliva?

MyBlackCat · 18/10/2015 20:21
