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.

Welcome back cookie!

fleur next scan next Monday, then probably daily until egg collection.

Viroids I need your advice: have neighbour who is constantly smoking dope and unless I close all doors and windows it permeates my whole flat. What to do?

Fleurchamp · 16/08/2016 20:02

I think that's the thing chat he wants to do things way above his ability - like stairs - he wants to walk up them like an adult. He refuses to crawl up them and it leads to a meltdown every time we go up the stairs (which is often as I live in a town house) as he wriggles and writhes to get down out of my arms.

Maybe a bungalow is the answer Grin

Will be thinking of you tomorrow and keeping all my gingers crossed.

kwick do you have a landlord or managing agent who you could give an anonymous tip off to? It's probably a breach of the lease to cause a nuisance/ do anything illegal in their flat. Might be easier than getting personally involved.

kwick · 16/08/2016 20:37

Thanks fleur - landlord for neighbour is the council. I bought my flat 9 years ago: at that time a lovely couple and a small baby lived upstairs - they then had a further 2 children (it is a 1 bedroom flat) and finally got rehoused, then came single man who was clearly dealing, the Police kept on trying to catch him and he was finally evicted, now it is current dope smoking male - who BTW is also prob dealing...

NameChange30 · 16/08/2016 20:40

kwick You should definitely report it to the council.

FuzzyOwl · 16/08/2016 23:01

Corgi I get positive OPKs for three days usually and ice on the second one. Good luck.

CannotEvenDeal · 16/08/2016 23:18

I agree with the reporting kwick. Good luck.

Name: Cannot
Age: 33
Ttc #1
(Very lucky ft stepmum to an absolutely adorable 12yo boy since he was 2 though, hence why I genuinely don't mind if the bio baby never comes and I know that I'm in the minority in this respect.)
Cycle #1

So.... I'm very excited to have found this thread. Dh and I are definitely the 'not preventing' type as opposed to actively trying. I had to Google what a OPK is, I have no idea about temperatures and I don't know how long my cycle is Blush

What I do know is that I fancy the pants if dh and I'm happy just to see where that gets us Wink

Tinkfromlovejoy · 17/08/2016 07:10

Welcome cannot! Totally refreshing attitude right there Smile

kwick we used to have people next door that smoked weed in their garage all the time. It was the parents and 4 teenage kids so the smell was strong. It didn't permeate our house as detached but I couldn't garden out the front or have front windows open due to the stink. The more stoned they got the worse the language and fall outs would be. We often had police round there as they would call them for assaulting each other. They'd also be running up and down the road naked (dad was the worst culprit) and throwing loud parties occasionally.
They were fairly friendly the rest of the time and would bring us bags of fruit from their orchard and the kids would wash our cars for pocket money occasionally. Such a tricky situation!
It culminated in kids in cars turning up late at night and we got the feeling they were dealing. Before we were forced to make any reports the for sale sign went up, thank God. They said they wanted to "get back to civilisation" (it's very rural here).
Not sure how that helps you but wanted to share your pain, it's so tricky because you have to live near these people. I think if I could smell it in the house I'd have complained to the council though. When your baby is here you will not want him/her exposed to that stink. Also, you could call the police helpline for advice, I did once and they were aware of the family.

Sorry for the long boring story, been awake for hours very bored Grin Hoping it's pregnancy insomnia Wink

Hey cookie! Long time no see Grin good to see you back on the JS train. Remember DS was conceived on my lunch break ;) skills

Chat good luck today lovely! We are there holding your hand and keeping our gx for sticky bean

Fleur ffs if you are a crap mum I'm frigging adolf hitler. You've gone through so much with S - he was in no way an easy baby and you've doggedly dealt with everything. The underlying issue is that you don't get enough support from Mr Fleur, who needs to stop blaming you and take responsibility for his half of the load.

Temp back up and no trace of af. Wtf?

Corgi yes that can happen but which brand are you using? What's happening with job?

Finally cracked at work yesterday and told boss that my mat cover needs to be gone permanently (she's been hanging on in there trying to do volunteering because she desperately wants my job). He said he understood so hopefully I've finally got through? Told her last week there's nothing to give her to work on and she responded by saying 'can I come in next week?'. Me (confused) 'why?'. Her 'because it's nicer to be in the office where I can sit and chat'. Hmm

Fuck...off. Found lots of emails where she's told people she thinks some of my decisions are not right and 'I would have done it this way'

Kwick yuck! I would report him to the council. Gross

Cannot hi!!! Welcome! Nice to hear from a hopefully actual proper JSer! Some of us looks sheepish cheat a bit but I've got short LP so have an excuse, honest!

Tink what's the current situation? Are you twotting?

angelazul · 17/08/2016 08:00

Kwick great news on the ivf front, not so good news on the neighbour front - I'd def report him to the council.

Welcome cannot, & welcome back cookie

Corgi sorry the job's not going well.

Gx for scan chat

kwick · 17/08/2016 08:04

Welcone cannot!

tink thank you so much for sharing :) lucky me that all they are doing is smoking and always banging their front door so hard the whole house shakes. I think I will contact the Council.

lala how unprofessional!!! Clearly jealous and insecure.

ChatEnOeuf · 17/08/2016 08:52

Welcome, Cannot! Best attitude to have, enjoy!

Thanks for the good luck wishes. Quite weird, first early scan I've had that's not been for bleeding. Quite a novel feeling - still bricking it though!

Definitely report him, Kwick - especially if you think he's dealing on the side.

Pregnancy insomnia would be brilliant Tink.

cookielove · 17/08/2016 09:04

Is the scan today chat? Ooh I am sure it will be fine but sending a good luck squeeze to you 💕

la my first thought was wtf how frigging unprofessional. Not sure why your boss feels the need to pay two people for the same job Hmm

Hello cannot :)

kwick our inconsiderate neighbours below us, smoke weed underneath ds's window I cannot tell you how made I get!!

CannotEvenDeal · 17/08/2016 09:36

Morning all, thanks for the kind welcomes. Seeing dh for the first time in two weeks tonight so I'm very distracted today ha ha ha!

Good luck with your scan chat!

Lala the 'cheating' admission made me smile. At this stage I'm very much a JSer... dh teases me that it's my favourite hobby Blush But after 10 years together he shouldn't be complaining right Wink

Tinkfromlovejoy · 17/08/2016 10:18

Good luck chat Flowers

Yup, af due this weekend and currently feeling like I did last month when I got the very short lived squinter. A bit sicky, a bit dizzy and very nervous Grin Currently eating all the pineapple, Brazil nuts and baby carrots.
Although this time I have the skittle tits (didn't last time) so am trying to convince myself this means more progesterone.

Hobbit19 · 17/08/2016 13:34

All of the things crossed for you Tink. Baby carrots though???

Cannot, excellent work on the true JSing. We are also devout JSers, not like some of the heathens on here! (Joking! I know we have been lucky that we can just JS.)

Corgi, sorry that the new job is pants. What rotation are you on now?

La, your mat leave cover is a fruit loop.

No NFMV, ovaries are still on strike. Meh. In other news, I've just eaten an entire bag of liquorice allsorts and feel a lot better about life.

ChatEnOeuf · 17/08/2016 16:32

GX for you Tink!

Scan good - tiny little bean in there with a HB! 6+0 today :) Bonus: no dildocam!

Tinkfromlovejoy · 17/08/2016 16:35

Yay! Grin Cake Huge congratulations xxx

pud the baby carrots thing is something to do with beta-carotene in luteal phase for egg health. Crazy? Me? How very dare you all...Grin

cookielove · 17/08/2016 17:36

Yay chat BEST news ever Grin

corgi88 · 17/08/2016 17:37

Congrats chat , so good to hear!
New job isn't that bad, have just moved into my last year of gp training and it's proving hard to get my brain back in gp mode and of course the computer system is impossible to use... Having a bit of a worry that I'm not cut out for this and that I should be doing something else not medical at all. We'll see how it goes - mainly because I have no idea what else I would do! Haha.
Had positive opk for 2 days, negative today. Got the cape on dutifully. Starting to get a bit miserable about it all especially as I should be on mat leave by now if the first pg had stuck. I know i shouldn't think like that but it's hard sometimes isn't it.....
Moan over! Hope everyone else is ok. Just is it weird that I'm very excited about your wedding and js photographer?!? [Grin]

angelazul · 17/08/2016 17:40

Yay chat, fantastic news Star

Got letter in to make appt with fc - totally bricking it now

Fleurchamp · 17/08/2016 17:45

chat so pleased! Grin

NFMV - nowt. Had a Superdrug early detection test left over from last time - BFN. AF due Friday

CannotEvenDeal · 17/08/2016 18:17

Congratulations chat lovely news Smile

I know what you mean corgi. It's our first time ttc but a couple of years ago we lost an unexpected baby. For a while I placemarked everything by (what would have been) the due date but it does pass Flowers

ChatEnOeuf · 17/08/2016 19:16

Thanks, viroids!

A lot of people thought I'd have been well-suited to community doctoring, Corgi - but I just can't get along with it. It is a different mindset, and one that I just don't get. I think it's hard not to think of the 'what ifs', it's a part of the grieving process in my head.

Make the call, Angel!

kwick · 17/08/2016 20:17

chat I am so happy!!!! Well done Grin

kwick goes off to eat LOADs of carrots
