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.

Well....I miss one day of the Fred and it gets all exciting!!!

I definitely saw a line Just so gx for the FRER tomorrow!

Black cat....that's an absolute blinder! Enjoy your skiing and try not to think about it too much not that I would be able to take my own advice at all!

No news from TTC as we're stressed at mine and have only shagged once...both of us losing our jobs means my TTC obsession has cooled from batshit crazy to fairly normal. Sure normal batshitness will resume soon Grin

justtheonethen · 01/04/2016 18:15

black I've got actual tears, I'm so happy for you, it's been one hell of a journey for you. Congratulations my lovely Star

NameChange30 · 01/04/2016 18:17

stumbly both of you? Didn't realise that, sorry Sad you will both find something and if not you will find a way to manage!

ChatEnOeuf · 01/04/2016 18:23

Black that's a beauty of a line! Brilliant! Come over to the grads when you feel brave enough (there's loads of newbies!). Do look back through the Fred for pictures of peesticks, it's been a bumper one :)

Kwick709 · 01/04/2016 18:47

canters I am still alive!!! I injected into the side of my upper thigh like the picture showed.

Please can a viroid medic explain what drawing back means ? Do you mean that I pull the needle out a little and check for blood? how the hell am I supposed to see this when doing in my bum what is the risk if I do not do this?

stumbly this a defo sign of respect that you have been elected! What is your manifesto? I am sure you will handle the burden of responsibility with flying colours.

okay on to next page

Kwick709 · 01/04/2016 18:49

Just loving the photo!!!

OMG Just I can see the line!!! Blimey this is more gripping than Eastenders but I am going to resist the urge to jump ahead. I will keep my gx for you!!!
Just one comment: how can you not have had a FRER handy???????

FuzzyOwl · 01/04/2016 18:51

Kwick glad you are still alive and I wondered that about the FRER as well, but then I realised what a POAS addict that made me!

Kwick709 · 01/04/2016 18:55

Thrush is the worst!!! I had that during my first IUI - not pleasant. Plenty of live yogurt for everyone!

just will keep my gx for your BFP with a FRER tomorrow. Enjoy some drinks tonight - they will do not harm.

Way to go myblackcat!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! This is fab news.... now breathe!
Remember (please change to PMA "I am"):
You are preggers and everything is going great
You are in perfect time
You are nurturing a healthy and happy baby

Kwick709 · 01/04/2016 18:58

stumbly I did not realise is was the both of you either. What a f**ker! But I am sure there are 2 amazeballs jobs on the the horizon - one each.

MyBlackCat · 01/04/2016 19:02

Thanks everyone Smile just I've got tears in my eyes too, I scarcely believe it. I hope you get your line on the frer in the morning, it would be great to graduate together, I feel like I've shared this journey with you more than anyone.

Never thought I'd get to write my stats in this way but I'm going too.

TTC since dec13, bfp april14 mc @10 weeks June 14. 22 barren months since, all the tests and nothing wrong, had to wait until June for IVF referral but we've beaten them too it Grin

Dtd on cd16/18/19 and 21. Ovulated on cd20/21 according to pissy sticks.
Bfp cd34 13/14 dpo.

I had all the usual pre af symptoms, boobs are killing me and I do feel like I need the loo every few mins, I've also been crampy which is a concern. Still expecting af to arrive but I hope I never see blood again.

Thanks for all the support everyone Smile

FuzzyOwl · 01/04/2016 19:10

I didn't realise that either Stumbly and I hope it works out for you and you still get your BFP very soon.

Kwick I know I have said it before, but I really love your PMA and I have taken note.

MyBlack I am still getting cramps now (9 weeks) and feeling like AF is about to arrive sums up the first couple of months of all of my pregnancies. As worrying as it is, it is perfectly normal.

YouBastardSockBalls · 01/04/2016 19:17

MyBlackCat I'm so happy for you!! That's a beauty of a line! Star

just I'm fine thanks. Had 20 week scan today, all seems fine but it's a girl and I was convinced it was a boy so a bit shocked! But pleased. DS distraught - 'but we've GOT a girl baby!! I want a BOY baby!'

Sos mate. Grin

I'll be checking in in the morning! Will go visit the grads too, fallen off the fred as I've been on Facebook.

lildottie · 01/04/2016 23:05

Omg black congratulations! Please try not to worry about cramps. I hascas many in my mc cycle as I did in this bfp cycle. Just drink plenty of water to help ease them and take things easy.

just I can definitely see a line on that test. What dpo are you? I can understand you not wanting to get your hopes up but I really hope this is it for you.

Ain are you still about? Hope you're OK too.

Does tink ever check in these days?

waves to everyone else and offers up bump for rubbing for luck.

justtheonethen · 01/04/2016 23:36

Me too lil! No idea on dpo as not tracked this cycle and can't remember when we shagged/had ewcm. Somewhere in region of 10-12 I think.

black that would be amazing if we could graduate together, we have shared this journey for a long time so would be nice to share the next phase.

I'm swinging wildly between optimism and total pessimism! I'll see what the morning brings.

tink checked in when chat got bfp,

ain we miss you!

coribeth · 02/04/2016 00:17

Kwick drawing back just means instead of pressing down on the plunger when you are injecting just pull back on it slightly whilst keeping the needle in place if you see a little bit of blood in the barrel of the syringe then you are in a vessel so adjust needle accordingly obviously when giving an im injection we do this as a matter of course but when you are injecting yourself in backside I'm guessing it's easier said than done! Grin

Catscatsandmorecats · 02/04/2016 06:50

Congratulations Myblack that is amazing news! Gx for the stickiest of beans for you.

Just g and everything else x for your poafrer this morning. I so so hope this is it for you.

YouBastardSockBalls · 02/04/2016 07:03

Black I also had period type pains throughout first trimester with each pregnancy. More on the right side but all mine have come from the right so maybe that's why? Anyway it's normal apparently!

justtheonethen · 02/04/2016 07:14

Bfn Sad and as soon as I started to poas got the most horrible cramps so I can only assume af is on the way. Trying to tell myself I shouldn't be upset as we weren't even trying this month etc etc, it's not working!
There is a definite line on yessterdays test, I just don't get it!

WellErrr · 02/04/2016 07:20

Oh just Sad

I don't understand it. How does this keep happening?? Getting BFNs is bad enough but to keep getting faint positives first must be unbearable.

Still keeping gx Flowers

Catscatsandmorecats · 02/04/2016 07:21

Oh just Flowers

justtheonethen · 02/04/2016 07:28

Quite frankly it's fucking shit. It's so devastating every time. I can't cope with this Sad

lildottie · 02/04/2016 08:49

Oh just I really hoped this was it as that wasn't an IC. Sad I so wish I could come and take you out for lunch and give you a massive hug x

MimiDiddy · 02/04/2016 08:55

Just Flowers, it is fucking shit, sending hugs and support your way.

NameChange30 · 02/04/2016 09:01

just Hugs and Flowers and Chocolate and Wine

corgi88 · 02/04/2016 09:19

just my love I am really sorry, I was so convinced this was it for you this month. It's so fucking unfair especially as the faint bfp yesterday got your (and all of our) hopes up! [Flowers] hang in there lovely. You WILL get your baby. HURRRRGH! Xxxx

black congratulations, so happy for you :)
