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.

Kwick Cancelled Netflix! Shock How is that positive?!
Joking, joking.. Glad all is going well so far, may it continue!

AliceScarlett · 12/04/2016 19:47

Kwick, you're so organised Shock

Kwick709 · 12/04/2016 20:05

What I did not say is that I still have Amazon AND LoveFilm subscriptions.... Blush

Kwick709 · 12/04/2016 20:07

Just saw a trailer for new series about giving birth at Portland Hospital - BBC2 9pm tomorrow!!!

FuzzyOwl · 12/04/2016 20:08

Kwick, where do you get the energy to be so organised?! Hope you aren't too bruised and sore from all those meds.

NameChange30 · 12/04/2016 20:12

Kwick
Interesting - I think Netflix beats Amazon and LoveFilm hands down! But I'm glad you'll still have plenty of TV and films to watch Smile

Kwick709 · 12/04/2016 20:56

Have just done injections... I seem to be getting later and later each day as I am running away from the pain. I really have no free/unsore areas anymore... Upper bum and both thighs now have been used as stabbing areas... I also do not seem to be able to get the needle in first time anymore - either cos it will not go in or because pain too intense and I have to find a new spot... Only another 5 weeks of this....

namechange interesting.... All the things I want to watch are on LoveFilm... But then I have quite eclectic quirky tastes!!! When I first moved back to the UK in 2004, I rented things like Press Gang, Friends, Degrassi Street, The Waltons, and so on... Fings I remembered from my youff! My current list includes the Terminator franchise, Mildred Pierce, Bomb Girls and Moonlighting.... I just have not worked out how to have LoveFilm and not Amazon... Hmm

NameChange30 · 12/04/2016 21:21

Kwick Ouch! Doesn't sound fun but will all be worth it in the end Smile
I haven't heard of any of those shows (apart from Friends, obviously!) My favourite shows are things like Orange is the New Black and The Good Wife (which is dangerously addictive!) Also enjoyed Homeland (Quinn: swoon) and Broadchurch. I like good female characters as you can tell! But my guilty pleasure is First Dates on C4 Smile

Canters15 · 12/04/2016 22:04

I love first dates, is it back?!!

Sausagema · 12/04/2016 22:05

Chat and corgi I am so so very sorry. I cannot imagine how you feel just now.

Sorry I dropped off life has been crazy. Chipolata hanging in there, 8+ weeks now. I feel a bit crappy saying that after what I've just read, I'm genuinely sad.

ScottishLady7 · 12/04/2016 22:31

How was your scan kwick?

NameChange30 · 12/04/2016 23:03

Canters Yes it's been on for a few weeks now 😍

Kwick709 · 13/04/2016 07:51

In the end I had 3 up the fanjo scans and 2 on top of womble scans... Scanner could not get a clear view - it seems kwicklet is lateral??????? Anyway she did see egg sac, yolk and heartbeat but I am going in for another scan next week.
I am going to SW today and will have a chat with group leader to see what she advises for weightloss whilst preggers... TBH I already look about 12 months pregnant!

stumblymonkey · 13/04/2016 08:18

First Dates is a definite TV highlight in our house...even DP loves it. I may also have a crush on the Maitre D'

I've even found out where he works in real life and might go for dinner there as a treat when I get a new job!

MyBlackCat · 13/04/2016 08:20

First dates and goggle box are my tv guilty pleasures Grin

NameChange30 · 13/04/2016 08:57

stumbly Fred!!! Where does he work then?!
I speak French and think it's hilarious that Fred says such banal things but they're supposed to be deep and philosophical because he says them in French Grin
He is very handsome and charming though Smile

stumblymonkey · 13/04/2016 13:01

Name...he's the manager at Galvin at Windows.

What is the French for "I will be having a right old perv at him" Grin

Canters15 · 13/04/2016 14:48

Oh yay!! That's my TV entertainment sorted- so much to catch up on!

Hahahaha I love the maître d also.

NameChange30 · 13/04/2016 15:02

stumbly not sure that was an actual question but I'll answer it anyway! I'd say something like: "je vais le mater grave!" Grin

Canters15 · 13/04/2016 20:43

Also I missed sausage- glad all OK with chipolata!

coribeth · 13/04/2016 20:54

Haha kwick that actually made me Grin about a year ago I bumped into one of my gay mates who was a little merry at the time who started touching my tummy got very excited and asked when it was due most awkward but it did make me think OK maybe I need to loose a few pounds!!! ConfusedBlushHmm

FuzzyOwl · 13/04/2016 21:10

Glad things ok sausage and Kwick. Hope everyone else is doing well.

corgi88 · 13/04/2016 22:38

Viroids! Je suis revenu!! (i felt inspired by the French on the Fred. ooh la la.)
Opted for medical management in the end and after a truly grim weekend have finally passed sac and placenta type thing - the first in IKEA of all places - and while my cervix feels extremely bruised and sore I will be planning to get my cape back on once the bleeding has stopped.
Just been catching up on Fred - just you poor thing! hope you have recovered now. kwick canters and sausage delighted to hear of your good scan news. sending lots of love to chat thought I know you may not be reading, but I hope you are ok Flowers Hope everyone else is keeping well.... I am finally cracking on with the long-planned bar area in my kitchen and will be taking delivery of a wine fridge next Tuesday! cocktails at mine dahlings!

AliceScarlett · 14/04/2016 07:00

Good to hear from you Corgi, you sound like you're being ridiculously strong in the face of things. Flowers

AliceScarlett · 14/04/2016 07:04

The promotion I was once promised (Angry) has been put back another 6 months and I think there's a good chance they won't advertising for it at all. In my line of work we have a "shelf life" Confused it's very unusual to do what I do for more than 2 years, I'm now at 4 year's and would hand my notice in like a shot... If I wasn't TTC.
DH earns minimum wage and I'm the main bread winner, I am worried about not being financially OK with children. Well, we will be OK, it will just be a struggle.
Does anyone else feel they are putting career's on hold?
