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.

LondonGirl83 · 13/01/2016 10:30

justtheonethen · 13/01/2016 10:43

No pics. Threw it away in disgust!

I got a positive opk on the 28th December.

justtheonethen · 13/01/2016 10:51

Actually positive opk on 27th I think

Kwick709 · 13/01/2016 12:52

just hang in there! Try again in a few days if witch not arrived.

My globetrotting is work related and sometimes conflicts with my iui attempts...

justtheonethen · 13/01/2016 16:42

cd1 Sad

Illiria · 13/01/2016 16:55

Just sorry that the witch has got you.

Day 29 of wtf cycle, had ewcm on the 28th of December and the 6th to 9th of January. Need to email by reproductive endocrinologist on the 16th to discuss starting again.

angelazul · 13/01/2016 17:10

Awh Just sorry the witch got you, she's such a bloody tease sometimes Angry

LondonGirl83 · 13/01/2016 17:18

ChatEnOeuf · 13/01/2016 18:46

Sorry just Sad

justtheonethen · 13/01/2016 19:47

To prove I'm not insane there fucking was a line on this mornings test. Why does my body do this. Or am I mad? I could just be imagining it but I can see one really faintly on the top one which is yesterdays and one on the bottom which is the one from today.

Now I'm not insane and harbouring any fantasies I'm pregnant despite period but there is a fucking line, it came up straight away and its pinker in real life. I know if it was a real line it would be darker by now. You don't need to send for straight jackets just yet Grin

Fucks sake. I am not testing again until I'm a week late. Clearly waiting until 15dpo is not long enough to avoid disappointment. Angry

Ooh my double posting phone might be losing it though!

CountryGal4 · 13/01/2016 20:01

Today's is definitely a line your not mad. I inverted it and it's even more visible. Wtf to your piss? I just don't get it????

justtheonethen · 13/01/2016 20:10

I know. I really don't know. I swore off ics as they gave me constant faint lines but apparently every test does Sad
I just inverted and it's totally there. I'm fed up. Clearly my body is mental.

CountryGal4 · 13/01/2016 20:16

Did you mention all the faint positives to gp?

justtheonethen · 13/01/2016 20:27

No, should I have? I imagine they would think I'm delusional! Got fc app on Friday so could mention it then I suppose but won't they just think I'm mad?

CountryGal4 · 13/01/2016 20:31

But your not! That is a ruddy line. I'm deeply confused....

CountryGal4 · 13/01/2016 20:32

Have you got another to pisss on the morning of the FC app to take with you to show them?

Ain626 · 13/01/2016 20:34

Just Sad maybe do what country suggested and tell your gp about all the false positives...they could mean something?

I got a really sharp pain on my left side earlier. Didn't last very long at all, but really fucking hurt for a few minutes. Pissed on an opk this evening (no fucking clue why!) And of course there's nothing there. A faint line, but lines were darker earlier on in my cycle, and I'm yet to see a positive opk in my house. sigh getting fed up of analysing every little twinge.. just kick out an egg already you stupid ovaries!!!!!

Hobbit19 · 13/01/2016 21:10
FeatheredTail · 13/01/2016 21:10

Just I saw a line on yesterday's tests too. So sorry af came. I agree with what the others have said - might be worth mentioning to your gp? Sending hugs Flowers

justtheonethen · 13/01/2016 21:47

I will mention them then, I thought I would but then worried they would think I'm crazy, especially as last time dp couldn't make it last minute so they probably think I'm making up a boyfriend! The nurse whispered to the consultant as I went in "her boyfriend had to leave for a work emergency, he was here" Grin
Probably all thought, poor love, she needs a boyfriend first!

It's so upsetting, I just don't get it. Do you think it's happening but not implanting, although then there wouldn't be hcg. Oh I don't know.
All I do know is it's killing me to keep getting false hope. It's so bloody heartbreaking. And it makes me sad that I don't even get excited to see a faint positive anymore as I just expect it's false. Especially when everyone else posts a squinter then next day a bold as brass line.

Sorry, indulgent.

come on ain's ovaries, pop an egg out. Grin

justtheonethen · 13/01/2016 21:48

I don't have another but I can get one, but I'll resent the cash! Might be good to have evidence though
