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.

Scottish believe it or not my XH did haven't heard from ds but am going to phone for casual hey how's you chat on the weekend! Confused

corgi88 · 10/11/2016 10:49

Oh wise viroids. Thanks for your advice and kind handholds! We have rearranged to next wed when I'll be 7+2 so hopefully better chance of seeing a hb... Will keep you all posted. Going to bury my head in the sand until then!
Also fairly slim but I think our unit always always use dildocams. Bah. I don't actually mind them too much though!
Chat I don't blame you for wanting lots of scans - I do wonder though as medics if we get too much access to them? Do they help with anxiety at all? Was it Scottish or canters who said that regularly scanning women with recurrent losses improves the outcome?
How's it going Scottish?
Awaiting zy/tink 's poas with much excitement!

ScottishLady7 · 10/11/2016 11:32

Oh cori good luck for the weekend chat!!!

To those of you asking, still no witch. And still getting a BFN on a FRER this morning... I'm now 9 days late... I just want to know, one way or another!

ScottishLady7 · 10/11/2016 11:35

And corgi it sounds like a good idea to me to delay the scan by a week- hopefully by 7+2 you will see a lovely heartbeat and it will set your mind at rest a bit.

coribeth · 10/11/2016 22:40

Scottish that's so frustrating I never got a bfp with my ds so had to have scan confirmation but got bfps with both my dad's I'm at a loss as to explain why! So gx! (fuels the crazy!)
corgi for what it's worth I think you made the right decision as if it was to early and couldn't see hb possibly make you more anxious I know it would me!
Nfmt (twot) and still completely devoid of anything remotely like a symptom which is seriously frustrating as I am still trying to symptom spot! Hmm

coribeth · 10/11/2016 22:41

Haha dd's not dad's ConfusedBlush

blackcherries · 10/11/2016 22:44

I'm new to this thread but the first post makes me laugh and you ladies seem great... anyone got a quick link to where I can get the links that don't work IYSWIM?

I'm back to normal now after my 3 weeks of craziness (week-late AF), how could I have ever been so obsessive??
(see you in two weeks for more of the same...)

ScottishLady7 · 11/11/2016 01:15

Oh cori that is both welcome and unwelcome info- we have very good friends staying who we don't see often so I have been indulging a bit, safe in the knowledge that I have been having bfns. In all likelihood my womb is just playing silly beggars but now I'm a bit worried! The fact that I'm the last one up and cleaning means that I might have held back a bit and not indulged as much as the others so hopefully if there is a secret bean it is ok!

Welcome black! I saw your message before and I wondered if I had missed your intro! Stats please Grin I can't find the links just now but hopefully a more techy viroid will pop along and help with the links in the morning. Hopefully you're not here for long and move on to the grads group before too long!

Ditsy79 · 11/11/2016 06:39

Hi all!
Been off this group for a while as ttc sent me a tad crazy. Also been undergoing investigations at the fertility clinic. Turns out I am not ovulating and one of my tubes is blocked.... I have been given Clomid, to start next month - has anyone here had it?
Hope you are all getting on okay, I haven't had a chance to catch up with the whole Fred.
Anway, stats:
Name = ditsy
Ttc = for 18 months
Dc = 1 + a crazy cat

ZylaB · 11/11/2016 07:19

CD 10/11 and another bfn, I'm actually in tears because I'd convinced myself I was pregnant this I'm and it looks like I'm not. It's always shown up by now previously. My best friend is having her baby today too.

ZylaB · 11/11/2016 07:19

*this time

ChatEnOeuf · 11/11/2016 08:29

Welcome back Ditsy, hope the Clomid does its job and your BFP comes soon.

I think it does help, Corgi - but I'm one for whom more information is always better than less.

Sad Zyla. I'm still hoping for you.

Hi Black! Come on in, sit down, have a cuppa. Stats please! Sorry about the lack of links, I think Tink was a little bit excited when making the Fred Wink

Welcome blackcherries!!!

kwick · 11/11/2016 09:46

Nice to see you again ditsy!

zyla do you mean 10 days after icing? Cos CD10 is well early!
Anyhoo sorry for your BFN Flowers

Just had cd15 scan- 3 follicles, 2 @ 10mm and one smaller... next scan monday... or earlier if I get a positive opk. I am not surprised everything is taking a long time - work is very stressful right now

kwick · 11/11/2016 09:54

So cd15 scan 2 follies @ 10mm and 1 smaller... lining good. Next scan Monday... did anyone bet right?

blackcherries · 11/11/2016 13:52

Thanks for the nice messages! My stats-
Age: 35
DC: DS 1
Ttc #2 cycle 9

Been on other ttc threads but thought I might not be allowed on this one due to my occasional use of opks...
Getting desperate and miserable tbh as rest of NCT gang have had/are having no2. Conceived DS on first cycle so waited until we were REALLY ready to try again, now kicking myself. Have had a couple of those months where I just KNEW I must be preg... only to see the horrible BFN.

Looking into private consultation to check if anything wrong as already past my age gap that I really wanted and would rather be doing something pragmatic...

DrRBannerx · 11/11/2016 14:01

Hey, mind if I join you?
Name: Dr.Banner (not a doctor just a nerd)
Age: 24
DC: 1 DD
TTC: #2
CYCLE:?? Not sure how to word my cycle, been trying properly since February, fell pregnant in July, but lost the baby in November at three months and now trying again.

Fleurchamp · 11/11/2016 18:16

zyla I got a bfn at 10 dpo - I didn't get my bfp until 14 dpo (when my frer shipment arrived Grin) you're not out yet

Welcome to the newbies! I may have used opks too

kwick · 11/11/2016 18:56

Welcome Dr!!!
Very sorry about MC Flowers

Well I do not know about you viroids but I have been TOLD by my FC to use OPKs so there Halo

ZylaB · 11/11/2016 19:01

fleur these are early tests. I dunno, it's shown up for me by now both times before and I think I've lost hope.

So fuck it, I'm drinking wine tonight.

Welcome to everyone :)

Tinkfromlovejoy · 11/11/2016 19:46

Evening all.

zyla me too, Wine and Martina Mcbride up very loud. No af yet but she's brewing. After about 7 years you'd think I'd give all this up as a bad job Confused Thank fuck for pets, going to dance with tinkdog in a bit!

Welcome noobs Smile

Tinkfromlovejoy · 11/11/2016 19:49

Actually, all out of wine Shock all I can find is a bottle of last years ginger mulled wine. Balls.

ZylaB · 11/11/2016 21:49

Yay tink. We have wine, come round to mine and we will drink 😂😂😂

coribeth · 11/11/2016 23:34

Welcome to all the newbies!
ditsy I've tried clomid the side effects were horrible but then some one suggested taking at night so I would sleep through them which was much better although it didn't eliminate them all they were manageable at least I only did three cycles as I then decided to save the other two for after I had lost sufficient weight to get my bmi under 30 last week it was down to 30.1 so I'm starting my last two cycles as soon as af turns up!

Ditsy79 · 12/11/2016 05:44

Cori I've heard taking it at night is the best plan. I'm trying to be optimistic about it, but I know the success rate isn't great (FC Dr said 10-14%). Pretty much my only option though, and they've said they'll fund it for 6 months. Good luck when you start it again !!
