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.

Hi kwick, of course you can, especially as you have read every page! Ooh how exciting is this our first js'ing non shagger? We will keep you sane, but I'm totally intrigued about the process you're going through so expect lots of questions Wink

justtheonethen · 31/12/2015 19:00

You don't have to have a cat, but you do have to admire ours Grin

justtheonethen · 31/12/2015 19:01

And I use all the contraband!

Kwick709 · 31/12/2015 19:33

Thank you ever so much honeysucklejasmine and justtheonethen!
Feel free to ask away! No egg collection just magic potion inserted at oportune moment. I did chat with consultant though and given my one ovary state, plus advanced years and will likely move on to ivf if this round of iui does not work.
I went on the wagon on the day of my first iui (4 sept) and have stayed on it. Given that I am defo over weight and the sauce was a major source of nutrition I decided to stay off to try & lose weight... No joy so far though Sad
I will certainly admire other jsers cats :)
PS I wish I was shagging...

corgi88 · 31/12/2015 19:40

Welcome kwick! I don't have a cat either but I do have a corgi...
Also very impressed that you are doing this alone, hope you have some support though! And of course we will support you through the crazy too. The viroids are bloody brilliant.
Sorry about your bfn London but if no AF you're not out just yet right?
Nfmv: had a bath last night, got into bedroom just as cramps got really bad and felt something come away, caught it in towel and realised it was the sac 😞 dh was rather traumatised bless him. Cramps not as bad today and bleeding not as bad either. Really hope my womble has managed to empty itself. Want to get back to shagging!
Happy new year for later viroids, hope you all enjoy the champers. I've had a g&t already .... Thanks for all your support over the last few months.

justtheonethen · 31/12/2015 19:49

Love rhubarb corgi, gorgeous! Oh you poor thing, that must have been very traumatic for you too. I hope you're okay, enjoy the g&t and come and talk if you need us.

kwick I too think it's awesome you're going it alone, must have been a hard decision though? I never thought I would find someone who I would want to spend my life with stupidly high standards so I always imagined having kids alone. I'm glad I met dp obviously but I am a strong believer that just because you don't have the traditional set up it shouldn't stop you having a family. I think it's amazing, how could a baby be wanted more.

I'm drinking a pouilly fume and have a bottle of champagne chilling. Alone though as dp is ill, surprisingly unbothered about missing party at the moment but there is still time for me to sob into my wine!

justtheonethen · 31/12/2015 19:50

Grin at magic potion

Kwick709 · 31/12/2015 20:42

corgi apologies if question is i but how did you know it was sac? Lovely doggy btw.
I have always wanted to have babies, a hubby too... Not sure why I waited so long to go it alone but really hope I have not missed my chance. It will mean big changes if I do get bfp... Will need to change jobs for starters...
Lucky baby dust to us all!
Happy New Year!

Kwick709 · 31/12/2015 20:50

Oops typo alert! Should have read "Apologies if question is too tmi but.."

To add: are any of you doing the pineapple thing? Or keeping feet warm? Or visualisation/affirmations? Cayenne pepper? Cinnamon? No red meat? You see I am the craziest!

lildottie · 31/12/2015 21:19

Hi kwick 16w pg after 3 years jsing yeah right I'm contraband queen! and 2 rounds of ivf, 1st ended in mc. I was lucky with menopur as I didn't really get any side effects except itchy legs! Big praise for you going it alone. Girl power! Gx you get your bfp this time, but if you do end up heading to ivf I've done ivf and icsi so am happy to answer any questions you may have.
As for pineapple, don't bother, warm feet -more about eating warm and warming foods as this improves kidney health which is key to fertility in Chinese medicine (also done 12m of acupuncture). So hwb on your lower back to warm kidneys rather than on feet, add ginger to your diet, and the warm feet will follow. I've always had cold feet but the acupuncture has definitely helped.I really believe acupuncture has made a huge difference to me. Even my sceptical dh was shocked by what his treatment did aslady didn't tell him what the needles were for but they did what they were meant to!

corgi that must have been hard for both of you. Hope you're OK and suitably pissed on gin. Flowers

just lap and dye achieves same thing in different way. Have you checked waiting list at your clinic?

CountryGal4 · 31/12/2015 22:16

Lovely pussy just Grin

Welcome kwick - first rule of JSer club. Nothing is tmi or off the table here

justtheonethen · 31/12/2015 22:28

Why thank you country, I'm rather proud of my pussy

lil do you mean waiting for ivf or lap and dye? Assume ivf? I'll check though. Didn't think to which is rather lax of me. I've checked finding criteria and success rates though.

To add: are any of you doing the pineapple thing? Or keeping feet warm? Or visualisation/affirmations? Cayenne pepper? Cinnamon? No red meat? You see I am the craziest!
Oh you aren't the craziest kwick by a long way, I've done pineapple, warm kidneys a la lil and if by affirmations you mean desperately pleading with my womble to do something, anything, then yes to those too Grin

What is the cinnamon/cayenne thing? Although I already hate myself when I'm forcing down pineapple core I can always find room for more crazy!
Not this cycle though, I'm having a month off from it all ready to start 2016 healthy and positive. I needed a break and dp has been rejecting my advances because he's ill as I'm losing my mind. I need to have one cycle of not losing my shit during the 2ww. Preserve what little of my sanity is left!

justtheonethen · 31/12/2015 22:29

country I think the first rule has to be about shagging surely! But yes nothing is tmi. This lot know more about me than anyone Blush

CountryGal4 · 31/12/2015 23:14

Or maybe it's that we don't talk about js club? There's no hope if we can't remember our own rules

Screaming at your vagina definitely works

lildottie · 01/01/2016 00:12

Happy new year all! Hope 2016 brings many bfps.

just yeah sorry I meant for treatment. I assume lap and dye will be a month or so after first appt depending on your cycle and when they have space! I had to delay my hsg as we were in Cyprus on cd1 so couldn't phone.

SanPellegrini · 01/01/2016 00:17

take a sip from my magic potion

pretzelpieces · 01/01/2016 00:29

Happy new year! Wishing all JSers and viroid science bitches their bfps in 2016 Star

fruitlovingmonkey · 01/01/2016 09:54

Happy new year viroids! I hope this is the year you get your babies, in womble or in arms.

CoffeeandStitches · 01/01/2016 12:12

Happy new year JS-ers. Off to catch up with Fred.

Still no witch!

corgi88 · 01/01/2016 12:56

kwick nothing is too TMI for the viroids haha! It was def the sac as I hadn't had anything else like that, not even any jelly clots. Was just period bleeding and then this thing which was a few cm long, felt like a little pouch or bag. I could tell there was something in it but couldn't bring myself to investigate further....
Bleeding has been a bit less since then so gx this is it.
Already annoyed by at 3 or 4 fb updates either announcing babies due in July (when I would have been due) or banging on about how excited they are to become parents. Maybe I should quit fb for a bit.... grumbles in corner
The worst thing is before all of this I would probably have been exactly the same! Uuggggh
Happy new year viroids, 2016 will be a good year! positive vibes

LondonGirl83 · 01/01/2016 15:36

Welcome Kwick!

LondonGirl83 · 01/01/2016 15:47

Happy New Year Viroids. Had an amazing time at NYE party but am now hungover and AF just started (joy). Bedding down to write my new year resolutions and then plan my ideal holidays.

ChatEnOeuf · 01/01/2016 18:32

Happy new year viroids!

Corgi that must have been rough. I knew as well when it happened but didn't investigate. Hopefully the worst is over.

Magic potion Grin

Welcome Kwick! Think you'll all find the rules in the first post Wink

I've got my rota until summer. Holiday planning time!

Kwick709 · 01/01/2016 18:32

Thanks for all warm welcomes - I am feeling very loved Grin

Corgi you are so brave... I never look too close. How sad - big hug coming your way.

I HATE fb - You see things that hurt... That is why I so rarely go on there and am only friends with very few people.

Okay so cinnamon is supposed to increase fertility - so I add it to porridge in copious amounts). But jsers BEWARE - cinnamon needs to be from Sri Lanka (Ceylon) NOT most commonly found type (Cassia) otherwise the overdosing can result in liver damage.... !!!

Cayenne pepper is advised on day of IVF/IVF as it encourages blood flow to womble. I ate a large quantity on IUI 1... It tasted really musty then saw that it was about 3 years after best before... Then bought new stuff for 2nd IUI but nearly burnt my mouth off... Did not do on 3 & 4.

May I please keep my kidneys AND feet warm?... Both are like blocks of ice currently so have hwb on both areas.

Just I do hope the first rule is not shagging... That would disqualify moi Envy

So with the pineapple how much should I eat? And is it only the core?

I heard laughing is good too during 2WW?

MyBlackCat · 01/01/2016 19:16

Happy new year viroids - may it bring everyone lots of shagging and bfp's Smile

Today is my birthday, another year older and childless Envy I did two parkruns this morning and have packed a suitcase for my ski trip. Sadly I had to drop my furbaby at the Cattery for the week, she wasn't happy.

Happy Shagging x please do some funky snow dances for me Grin
