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.

London I'll be checking in in the morning to see the result! GX!

My close colleague (not so close that I've told her we're ttc) came to talk to me in a rare quiet moment earlier to tell me she's pregnant (she's telling as few people as poss at the min as she's only 7 weeks. I'm honoured she chose to tell me). I'm so excited for her! Though the selfish part of me now wants me to get upduffed even quicker so that I don't have to watch her bump grow without having one of my own...

In other news, my observation that I was stressing over turned out okay. Grin

corgi88 · 25/01/2016 22:06

huh. AF is here. grrrr pours wine

corgi88 · 25/01/2016 22:10

Dang was going to write a bit more but posted early by accident!
Keeping my gx crossed for you London
ill good to see you, I don't really know what the WTF cycle is doing because my AF is a good week earlier than expected! oh well...
kwick you are doing so well to do all this by yourself, I at least have DH to cry on/yell at when ridiculously hormonal. So remember how strong and wonderful you are. Hurrrgh!

LondonGirl83 · 25/01/2016 22:23

The hormones are crazy. I started tearing up talking about Selena Gomez having lupus. I'm not even a fan of hers!

cirgi could it be implantation bleeding? The timing would be exactly right. Sorry to stir the crazies..

Ain626 · 25/01/2016 22:25

stumbly Grin

corgi88 · 25/01/2016 22:30

hahaha stumbly

< now in full viroid war regalia with feathered headdress and wine paint on face, waving crudely carved cocks fertility symbols around >

don't worry London my crazy is already wondering that. Suppose will find out in the next few days...

FuzzyOwl · 25/01/2016 22:48

I have everything crossed that it is implantation corgi.

Glad to hear that Ain.

coribeth · 26/01/2016 02:01

Well first day back wasn't to bad in fact quite enjoyed it tbh and matron mentioned that she has a clinic job going that I might be interested in could of kissed her! but so tired that I pretty much went to bed at 7.30 due to not being able to keep eyes open upshot of that is I'm now wide a bloody wake grr!
just yes new job is in same hospital it's a kind of cobbled together trial ward which is open till March atm! So pretty temporary but will see what happens gx for clinic job would be beyond perfect!

Gx London
Flowers for cats and canters and anyone else having a shit time of it!

Illiria · 26/01/2016 06:21

Thanks fuzzy and corgi

Well I seem to have started spotting, I haven't been this happy to have a period in years.

We have decided to ignore doctors and make a js attempt this cycle and then next back to the iui, if it doesn't work we don't need to tell them and if it does we won't care what the docs thinkGrin

LondonGirl83 · 26/01/2016 07:57

Okay tested again this morning and again a super faint line. I think something must not be right for the line to be so faint 😔

I've attached a photo though I can't really see it in the photos. DH can see it in real life though so I know I'm not mad.

Canters15 · 26/01/2016 07:59

Sounds like a rubbishy day kwick! Will join in viroid warrior woman cry, I feel like I need a good scream in a corner somewhere. Though I did properly guffaw out loud at the image of corgi with carved cocks in hand....

Corgi I really hope this is implantation bleeding!! This would be such good news.

My bleeding seems to be easing off this morning, hope this is the end of it now. Good news that many people conceive soon after....quietly hoping that's the case here.

Glad all ok ain! My silly iPad keeps wanting to autocorrect to Ian which makes me chuckle....

LondonGirl83 · 26/01/2016 08:00

This might be better. iPad is hard to focus

LondonGirl83 · 26/01/2016 08:04

ill glad your bleeding is starting and canters glad your is easing off

ScottishLady7 · 26/01/2016 08:05

Gx London, I can definitely see a line!!!

Canters15 · 26/01/2016 08:06

I can see it London. How many dpo are you? I'd test again in 2 days as line should be darker then.

angelazul · 26/01/2016 08:12

London I can see a line!!! Grin

LondonGirl83 · 26/01/2016 08:19

I am 13 or 14 days post ovulation I think. Hopefully it's still this faint because of late implantation...

Not going to get my hopes up. Clear blue digital said I was not pregnant!

My temp is still up so I'll test again on Thursday and hopefully it won't be a squinter anymore

honeysucklejasmine · 26/01/2016 08:24

There's a line there London for sure. Gx for a retest in a few days. Buuuuut, hooya for using a clear blue! Surely it is in JSing rules not to use those over priced pieces of crap until you have had at least 2 very dark FRER lines? (CB are no where near as sensitive as a FRER. I believe FRERs are 2.5 times more sensitive.)

Catscatsandmorecats · 26/01/2016 09:12

London definitely test again in a couple of days' time gx and everything else crossed for you...

Viriod way cry for Kwick l hope today is better for you Flowers

Ain you are just lovely being so happy for your colleague, envy is always there but it is a great thing if you can avoid being bitterly jealous.

Cori well done on your first day back, it sounds like you habdled everything brilliantly.

Sorry to those AF has got (or should it be yay for ill?)

Viroids I am loving the war cry this morning. I have woken up a lot happier and am determined to start afresh with a more positive outlook. It's a new day and all that HURRGH!!!

Catscatsandmorecats · 26/01/2016 09:14

Did someone say carved cocks.....

ZylaB · 26/01/2016 09:31

Lol cats

Now I know ICs are naughty..but for icing...mine have been getting lighter since day 8, is this normal? Will they get darker again or has the baby messed me up and I'm having no more cycles ever again?

Canters15 · 26/01/2016 09:32

My what an impressive carved cock you have there cats!

FuzzyOwl · 26/01/2016 09:32

Congratulations London that is definitely a line. I also agree about Clearblue not being as sensitive.

5hell · 26/01/2016 09:38

there's something there london Smile ...ignore the crappy CB digi, they should be banned, and retest on thurs/fri with a trusty FRER :)
