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.

Woohoo fleur!!

Hi to everyone else, sorry I've been absent but there hasn't been much to report.
Currently CD38 which is my longest cycle since TTC. I'm not sure exactly when I iced but normally it is CD21-23 with a 12 day LP. I had some pink cm at CD25 so, even if I iced later than usual I should still have started AF by now... Gx!

corgi88 · 04/11/2016 11:38

Omg Scottish when are you POASing?!

ScottishLady7 · 04/11/2016 13:34

I might have POAS already a gagillion times but have only had bfns but I haven't really known when to test - I have been on nights this week and so was confused about fmu etc. The test today was when I got home from work and it really hadn't been long since I last peed. I'm not sleeping today to try and get into the rhythm of things so I can't test later on which is frustrating!

I'm popping to boots so might get a FRER for the morning. Big question is, do I risk a Wine tonight on the back of my bfn???

corgi88 · 04/11/2016 13:51

Yeah it can't hurt Wine especially so early on I had multiple margaritas the weekend before my BFP

Fleurchamp · 04/11/2016 14:23

I would be tempted to poafrer tonight but I may be obsessed

kwick · 04/11/2016 17:16

OMG scottish LSGX!!! why not do one ce soir and another FRER tomorrow?

angelazul · 04/11/2016 19:41

Scottish this sounds very promising indeed, everything is crossed for you.

One of my close friends had her baby today, so so happy for her, but feeling rather sad for myself.

ZylaB · 04/11/2016 20:57

Congrats fleur!!

justtheonethen · 04/11/2016 21:18

Congratulations fleur Smile

I'm annoyed with myself, thought I was 7dpo on weds so went for progesterone test, spotting (well not spotting but pale pink on wiping) and cramping today so af is on way.

I've clearly fucked up dates somehow.
Consultant will try and give me clomid based on low progesterone but I was ovulating before and I'm sure I am now. Should I go to GP and arrange to do the progesterone test again next month to get an accurate result? I have just enough time before my appointment if I ice early enough.

I'm so annoyed, I thought this was just the last hoop to jump through before IVF and I've fucked it up.

I have no idea how I went on wrong day, I used contraband as always.

angelazul · 05/11/2016 09:19

Hmmm Just that's a tough one Confused How long is your lp normally? If you've time for another progesterone test it might be worthwhile arranging that of course I won't mention the other reason why you might be spotting at 9dpo, not at all, not ever

ScottishLady7 · 05/11/2016 11:56

Oh just I'm sorry, I would definitely book a test for next month so if you have time you can repeat it and if the spotting is for some other reason you can cancel the appointment

BFN on a Superdrug early result test this morning. Still no AF. I had my HSG at the start of this month- can that affect cycle/LP length? It might have been an anovulatory cycle but the pink spotting with a fleck of black in it on CD25 is something I haven't had before so I don't know how that fits into it all. DH is upset- to him late AF means baby.

Tinkfromlovejoy · 05/11/2016 14:58

Hello! Congrats to all those with bfp's, I've missed a few but am very pleased for you and hope you are ok. It's slightly freaking me out that I'm reading about some people getting their second bfp on these Fred's and they joined after me! Grin

just congratulations on your wedding!!! Don't worry about the tests, I think (no expert) that your progesterone will still be high enough a day or two before af for them to be able to see if it's too low or not. I'd definitely get them to redo next month too though.

scottish I often get pink/brown cm at icing. Maybe you iced late?

Sorry to all of the bfn brigade. Hope next cycle gets you all where you want to be Flowers

I'm about a week off af and have all the same symptoms I did before my cp in July. Going to sit on my hands and think happy thoughts until Friday!

Fleurchamp · 05/11/2016 16:00

How frustrating scottish - I have no clue at all. Maybe it is the HSG? Any way you could ask?

tink it would be the most amazing news if you do have a sticky bean in there - sending every positive thought your way and apologies for the queue jumping

justtheonethen · 05/11/2016 18:30

Annoying scottish Angry

It's definitely af AngryAngry

This month seems to have hit me extra hard, I'm so gutted. Why can't I get fucking pregnant?

justtheonethen · 05/11/2016 18:31

GX tink sending positive vibes your way

angelazul · 06/11/2016 08:42

Sorry Just that's so shit, I was getting really hopeful for you Sad Pos cp do you think? Take some time to wallow, have lots Wine Wine & ChocolateChocolate, & then dust yourself off & back to business cos you are going to be on that ivf waiting list & you blooming well are going to have a baby!!

Scottish very confusing indeed, though you're not out til the witch arrives.

Tink sending positive thoughts your way.

My cm is all over the show, so I think my body is still trying to ice. Don't think I'll manage it this cycle, gx for next cycle though.

corgi88 · 06/11/2016 17:25

Ah just it's hard to not to get your hopes up especially with wanting a wedding baby etc. Hang in there pet, we all know you will get your delicious pink cuddly baby eventually! By hook or by crook.
Scottish hope you are OK, hate the repeated bfns and no af .. any updates?
Angel good to hear about your friend but I know that bittersweet jealous feeling!
Tink sounds promising, will keep my gx for you!
Nfmv: Am just lurking here for now, no way am I going to grads yet i don't dare. Cramping a fair bit on and off, no idea if this is normal or just the way my stupid wonky womble copes with pregnancy?
Cori spa sounds amazing! Have you been yet? I am jealous, craving a good massage here!
Hope you have all had lovely weekends x

NameChange30 · 06/11/2016 19:21

corgi I had bad cramps at the beginning of my pregnancy, felt like period pain - apparently it's normal as long it's not too severe or accompanied by bleeding. Anyway all is fine for me so far (23+6) touch wood! I have everything crossed for you too.

Sorry to those of you who are struggling - hang on in there Flowers Wine

ScottishLady7 · 06/11/2016 20:32

I'm so sorry just - Wine and Chocolate for you!!

Corgi I hope your crampy glad I foiled my autocorrect's attempts to say crappy, how rude wobble settles down and behaves itself. Where are you at with scans etc?

A highly scientific literature review with Dr Google has shown that, although not a recognised side effect of a HSG, many women have wtf cycles following on from it. Equally quite a few seem to get pregnant the very same cycle...

So confused! No AF yet and still BFNs... I will report back.

kwick · 06/11/2016 20:33

scottish sorry about BFN Flowers I am sure I am supposed to know but what is HSG?

What a fcuker just Flowers

corgi I do believe cramping is perfectly normal - your womble is adjusting to baby Grin

So I had my day 9 scan yesterday - 2 follicles both a bit on the small side... lurgy probably set me back a bit - milk binge pn its way! Next scan on tuesday.

ScottishLady7 · 06/11/2016 21:59

Get guzzling that milk, kwick!!

An HSG is a hysterosalpingogram- speculum in, catheter passed through cervix and dye injected, X-ray of pelvis taken to ensure dye passing to the end of each tube and spilling out, i.e. No blockages.
The consultant said afterward that I have an increased chance of getting pg for the next 5 months as, even though there were no blockages seen, it often has a cleansing effect like blowing away the cobwebs... time will tell!

coribeth · 06/11/2016 22:44

Hoping everyone had a good weekend Wineand Flowers for those who did not!
Spa was amazing came back totally relaxed until ds phoned and dropped bomb shell that he has decided that he is going to quit his job and join the bloody French foreign legion Wt actual F! I am hoping that it's a passing whim and nothing will come of it but still concerned to say the least SadHmm
So back to work tomorrow still should take my mind off the whole twot! Confused

kwick · 07/11/2016 07:57

Hmm thanks scottish is that the same as a hycosy then (which is what I had last cycle and was fricking painful!!!)? Hmm

Um cori is the French Foreign Legion an actual thing? Confused FX for you BFP!

coribeth · 07/11/2016 08:48

kwick unfortunately yes it is a real thing did a lot of research on it after he told me and it sounds awful basically made up in the most part of thugs and thieves who France seem to use for there dirty work and pay them an appallingly low wage (1200 euro) the average age is about 35 so at 20 in a well paid insurance job I'm at a loss as to why he'd want to go he's really stubborn so I'm just trying not to mention it so as not to make it a thing! SadConfusedHmm

ChatEnOeuf · 07/11/2016 09:13

Wine and Flowers for you Just and GX still for you Scottish

Enjoy the milk binge Kwick, hope this time is successful.

Cramping can be very normal ,Corgi. Think of it as the little bean burrowing deep and safe. Pop over for hand-holding when you're ready :)

Tink as ever, GX.

Spa sounds lush, Cori - FFL not so much. I honestly thought that died out after WWII!
