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)

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.

Welcome Dr you don't need to abstain, no blood supply to any potential bean until 5 weeks. Good luck!

Well done black, I'm with you on getting hammered over xm although no af yet

CountryGal4 · 15/12/2015 20:01

44 sounds very good to me. Lil would be the expert though! Do you definitely know when you iced? All this illness could def have kicked everything back

justtheonethen · 15/12/2015 20:05

Only went by positive opk so not really, was wondering if tablets/illness can delay af? I must have iced when I thought I did if the progesterone showed it but could probably be a day out I would think?

MyBlackCat · 15/12/2015 20:27

just Over 30 for progesterone is evidence of ovulation, mine was 47 Grin yours is good news!

drwhy no need to abstain from alcohol during tww, don't go crazy but no harm done if you do get lucky first time and you have had a few drinks. This could take months years so be kind to yourselfWink

justtheonethen · 15/12/2015 20:33

Thanks black, thought so. Where the devil is my period then? I know I'm not pg as I used a frer yesterday before commencing drugathon so it's just dicking about

MyBlackCat · 15/12/2015 20:47

It's the fucking witch just she does whatever the fuck she feels like Angry

OP posts:
justtheonethen · 15/12/2015 21:09

That's true Angry. Not fair, ill and being mucked around by witch. Although at least it delays having another blood test. 3 in a week so far, I'm like a pro now!

FuzzyOwl · 15/12/2015 22:55

Hi again everyone. I think I ovulated today, so the long wait now.

Sorry for those with AF. Hope everyone is doing ok.

SockQueen · 16/12/2015 04:24

I didn't ice this month. Sad No idea why Clomid would work one month but not the next. Guess I'll have to wait for AF and ring the clinic to get advice for next cycle. I'm struggling at the moment though, contemplating stopping Clomid for a few months to try to lose weight to improve my chances, but don't know if that's sensible or if the clinic will be happy. Feeling crazy and sad.

justtheonethen · 16/12/2015 07:44

They might need to increase your dose sock, what are you on? There is some evidence that if you have a high bmi Clomid can be less likely to work. See what the consultant says. Flowers and [hugs]

Hi fuzzy

NFMD(drugs): high as a kite
NFMV: still no period. Could do without it buggering about really, I'm feeling too crap to be on pantwatch.

I'm going to try and finish Xmas shopping online today. Anyone know any good stocking filler type places like tiger but online?

SockQueen · 16/12/2015 10:38

Only 50mg so far - kept it the same for cycle 2 as it looked like I'd iced in the first cycle. So there's room for increase, but part of me wants to not waste cycles if my chances will be better in a few months if I can get my BMI down. I just hope this will be adequate motivation for me!

justtheonethen · 16/12/2015 10:52

This is great motivation, you can do it.

Canters15 · 16/12/2015 11:18

Can I join please?

Am 29, on cycle 2 (though pretty sure I didn't ice last cycle due to v stressful month so maybe I can count this as cycle 1? Maybe?!)

Anyway I'm normally super sensible and rational, but have turned into a CRAZY lady since starting ttc and think I need you guys for mine and DPs sanity....

8dpo today, did an IC and bfn....trying to look at the positives I.e. Booze over Christmas and also I'm getting married in two weeks so will be good to indulge in champagne at the wedding...but damn it I want a baby.

Random day off work today, plan is wedmin and Christmas shopping....

justtheonethen · 16/12/2015 11:28

Welcome canters 8dpo is way too early, most don't implant until 9dpo and then you need to wait for hcg. Hooyah for you!
And yes you are very welcome but only if you drop the phrase wedmin Grin
How exciting, Christmas wedding! Are you doing a Christmas theme? Xmas Smile

LondonGirl83 · 16/12/2015 11:53

Canters 8 dpo is way to early. 10 is typically the soonest you can test and even then, the tests are most accurate with missed AF. Test again in about a week Smile

NFMOvaries- more pain on left hand side!

NFMV- EWCM!

Shagged last night but should don the cape tonight again. I'm out of OPK sticks. Does anyone know where I can buy more? I'm pretty sure I'll get a positive today but I'd like to see the test anyway just so I can be sure.

justtheonethen · 16/12/2015 12:27

You can get them in boots/asda etc. They all do a cheap version that aren't that cheap!

Hurrah for ewcm Star

Canters15 · 16/12/2015 12:52

Seriously, just/London? will stop obsessing over lack of symptoms and back away from the pregnancy tests! Told you I needed this thread to slap me back to sanity.

Yup, Christmas themed wedding Grin mince pies, mulled wine, big old Christmas tree etc etc. Getting v excited but wish I could make someone else do all the last minute tedious bits and bobs.

FuzzyOwl · 16/12/2015 13:13

Hello and welcome Canters. I would have loved a Christmas wedding (especially if it snowed!) but sadly too many people were travelling from a long way away so we went for a rainy late winter's day instead. I hope you have a fantastic time and can remember all of it because you can't drink any champagne! Wink

Sorry to hear that Sock. Hugs.

Hope you got the sticks London and get your positive.

back at Just. I need to find some stocking fillers as well but am going to trawl around my local supermarket first and see what I can pick up there.

Does anyone know when you start counting your LP? Is day one the day you ovulate or the day after? I am trying to work out whether mine is quite short or not. I typically ovulate on day 21 or 22 and have a 31 day cycle.

MyBlackCat · 16/12/2015 13:19

fuzzy LT is from ovulation to the arrival of AF, so if you ovulate on day 21 of a 31 day cycle you have a 10 day LT, day 1 is first day of full af flow, 1dpo is the first day after ovulation.... I've been here way to long to know all this EnvyShock

OP posts:
FuzzyOwl · 16/12/2015 13:24

Thanks MyBlackCat. Smile I just managed to get myself completely confused with conflicting information on the Internet about when your LP starts and I knew someone on here would know for me.

justtheonethen · 16/12/2015 14:01

I'll be your wedding planner canters but only if I can have a Britney head mike? Sounds gorgeous.

justtheonethen · 16/12/2015 14:02

I'm stuck in bed fuzzy else I would be doing the same

FuzzyOwl · 16/12/2015 14:04

Online supermarket shopping, Just?

I think I might have to sit in the crazy corner with you Canters. I am 1dpo so need to get a grip!! Grin

justtheonethen · 16/12/2015 14:17

Good plan Grin

Throwing hooyahs out to the crazy corner

5hell · 16/12/2015 14:23

just are the drugs making you feel better, as well as high?

fuzzy hope you're going to squeeze in an extra shag just in case you ov'd a bit late?

what a nice flurry of newbies waves ...now about time some of you old-timers came over to grads - get shagging, lots of xmas/new year bfps would be nice
