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 <strong>Something</strong> = JSing like a teenage nymphomaniac.

Giving a <strong>hooya</strong> = 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.

Thank you for the much needed hooyah viroids. I will seduce DH when I get in from work tomorrow as he will be home by then. Good excuse to not stay at work too late! I think I will don the sexy lacey outfit he bought me for Christmas. Wink

Wish it wasn't Sunday night already.. I'm not ready for another weeks work yet!

Catscatsandmorecats · 18/01/2016 03:16

Thank you for the hooyahs Viriods. I see there has been much pissing on sticks going on, so not just me. Ain your pissy stick is particularly exciting though, hope you collect much jizz.

I did poas, bfn, obviously. Still getting niggles and spotting so will see what happens when the witch is due on Thursday. Has anyone experienced this before, I seem to be spotting from about 7dpo until the witch is due a week later. What is my body up to?!

Canters don't feel bad, it does mess with your head Flowers

Kwick709 · 18/01/2016 07:33

Just sorry if I made you worry about choking potential... i did not choke nor did I cough. I did however get a bfn on a frer at 5am and then was very luckily able to go back to a deep sleep in my misery.

I feel yucky still in throat and nose & seriously considered working from home but I need to pick up my Boots online order which is going to the one near work.

Hope other jsers have a better start to the day than me!

Canters15 · 18/01/2016 07:33

Good luck ain!

Thanks all, didn't expect to go so wobbly over it all! Not helped my MIL telling me yesterday to 'give the good news soon please'- I did snap a bit- I'm fucking trying! In laws have now gone back to their home country and we are both back at work today so life is going back to normal- now the pressure of a honeymoon baby is gone I should start to feel better about it all!

Cats. Sorry about bfn. What is your body playing at?! How confusing for you. I hope its just too early to test and the witch stays away on Thursday!

stumblymonkey · 18/01/2016 07:46

Kwick....sorry about the BFN, you said you'd go and get IVF now...how long have you been trying? I'm a newbie so have only been following the Fred this month.

jellypi3 · 18/01/2016 08:50

Wow ain that's a beaut of an OPK! :) gx for you!

Just thought I'd pop my head in and return the kind gesture from ain :) so hi viroids! Gx for some bfps this month!

justtheonethen · 18/01/2016 09:20

Any babies over there jelly?

Sorry kwick Thanks

jellypi3 · 18/01/2016 09:27

Well gouda has gone quiet so we hope she's doing a baby. niff had her little girl last week and I'm due next Shock pret will probably pop before me though as she's being Induced on my due date. So it's all steam ahead on the Js'ing baby front!

Great news on your fc appointment just :) and lovely to see some old time js'ers back for round 2!!

FuzzyOwl · 18/01/2016 10:29

Sorry for those with BFNs or feeling unwell.

Hope your DH appreciates the outfit Ain. Wink

Thanks for the update jelly and hope all is going well with everyone on your thread.

Kwick709 · 18/01/2016 11:39

Thanks for commiserations. I am at my clinic now waiting to see consultant about next steps. I started last May but only did first iui in September - that was try 5 I just completed.

FuzzyOwl · 18/01/2016 12:23

Hope it all goes well at the clinic Kwick

justtheonethen · 18/01/2016 13:03

How are you due next jelly?!

Hope you get a plan in place kwick and aren't feeling too down Thanks

LondonGirl83 · 18/01/2016 13:14

Good luck Kwik Gx you'll only need one round of IVF if it comes to that.

Sorry to all the viroids with BFN's this week.

I hadn't realised that 10mlu was the testing amount for FRER.

stumblymonkey · 18/01/2016 16:39

Can someone give me a virtual slap around the face and tell me to stop symptom spotting?!?

Am bloated up like I'm five months pregnant, bloody ravenous and yet also a bit queasy today. It's still 10 days until AF is due so it's fair to say my symptoms are not pregnancy related but my tiny little brain keeps going back to that. Argh! Hmm

justtheonethen · 18/01/2016 16:47

Hooyah to you stumbly, ten days before af? You do need a slap! Grin

FuzzyOwl · 18/01/2016 17:32

No way I can give you a slap stumbly when I am only 3 or 4dpo and planning my maternity leave! Blush

justtheonethen · 18/01/2016 17:41

I've been planning mine for 18months now! Could have had it twice!

Kwick709 · 18/01/2016 18:41

Thanks for all well wishes. Feel like death but that us down to mega sore throat and cough - going home to take calpol!

So I am going to do stimulated ivf - it will be very intense but gives me my best chance and this last TWOT has shown me just how important this is for me. My next milestone is next Friday - 3d scan of uterus cavity. I am quite scarred but I am sure I will rise to the occasion. I told consultant that I need to win lottery (this will wipe out all of my savings) and she asked if I could split winnings with her!!!

MyBlackCat · 18/01/2016 19:55

That's good news kwick and no pun intended but quick too Grin

Massive hooyah and double slap stumbly Wink

A couple of weeks back I had my one year anniversary of mc due date, I should have had a child and been back at work now after a whole year of maternity. Glad no one told me it could be this long - not sure how I would have coped. BUT .....coped I have, feel in a good place right now, ran 13 miles today and entered a duathlon - exercise is giving me different goals to focus on Hmm

Ditsy79 · 18/01/2016 20:36

Big hooyah stumbly !
Am in the middle of twot - AF due on Sun, and have given it a good shot this month. Feeling a bit less stressed about the whole thing, we decided to just dtd every other day although we did get it on every day when the contraband had a smiley face Hoping this is going to be our month....

justtheonethen · 18/01/2016 20:54

Good for you black Smile

kwick that's great you have a plan, we are all rooting for you Thanks for your cough

justtheonethen · 18/01/2016 20:55

Well done ditsy, I'm trying to get dp to start this months shagathon tonight but so far not very successfully!

5hell · 18/01/2016 21:39

Black - you ran a half marathon! !?..on a monday....get you!!! :)

kwick does the bfn today mean you're definitely out ..is there no chance it's too early for detectable hcg? Get well soon Brew

Catscatsandmorecats · 18/01/2016 21:50

Kwick sorry for your bfn but that is great news you can get going so fast to try again.

Black what an uplifting post, you are doing brilliantly. I'm so pleased to gear you are in a good place and may your exercising help with the TTC too.

Hooyah Stumbly welcome to the mentalness. says she who when the spotting is slowing down at the end of every day thinks that it might be an implantation bleed rather than a week long spotting run up to AF This is why these Viriods are so brilliant and helpful. [Grin]

Ain626 · 18/01/2016 21:57

So I got home from work, DH was already back. Jizz has been received. Didn't even get chance to put on my outfit. Wink

GX I've actually ovulated, and there's some sort of meeting going on in there. But I doubt it's gonna happen what is potentially only my first actual attempt. I'm just still in awe of that positive opk yesterday. Been trying 18 months to get me one of those!!!
