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 <strong>Kitten</strong> = 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 <strong>something</strong> = JSing like a teenage nymphomaniac.

Giving a <strong>hooya</strong> = 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 <strong>Lemon</strong> = 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.

sofie

Oh, that makes sense Blush

I think I'll let DH do that when I ice next month. I mean, in the name of Freiheit, Gleichheit and upduffing. Of course!! Not because I like oral... of course not 😂(was that tmi?)

Unless I'll be doing a kitten, of course Wink

justtheonethen · 03/01/2017 21:42

Welcome spud Smile

Yes dtd every other day for greatest jizz potential, but only beneficial really if there is a jizz problem.
Definitely orgasm - either just before, same time or just after!

coribeth · 03/01/2017 22:45

kwick amazing news so happy for you! Gx for a sticky one! Grin

kwick · 04/01/2017 18:05

Understood zyla... I have definitely run that risk this last cycle...Confused

Thanks coribeth Smile

Feeling womble heavy again... trying to keep telling myself: " today I am preggers" but I would be lying if I did not say I am shit scarred about hcg retest on Friday...
I also cannot help but think that previous generations had it easier with less tests... but I am thankful for the progress in treatments.

corgi88 · 04/01/2017 21:57

Ahhh kwick I had so much cramping in the first few weeks that I was convinced af was about to pitch up.... I know what you mean about test-anxiety, sometimes I wonder if it would be easier if we had no tests available and had to sit back and wait for 9 months for a sproglet to pop out? But I have found the scans really reassuring this time around so I am glad of them. Hang in there, today you are pregnant!

ZylaB · 05/01/2017 08:39

kwick early pregnancy often feels like AF is coming, cramping and heavy Womble. Please try not to worry!

1horatio · 05/01/2017 10:40

I currently feel super pregnant. But not because I am but because I fell down the stairs and my left backside is black blue and hurts. But if we had been successful this cycle a fall like this would have probably... well, anyhow.

Good luck, kwick!!😊

1horatio · 05/01/2017 10:41

And btw, I second this. To me early pregnancy felt a lot like bad period pain, tbh.

Backache, some nausea, some cramps...

angelazul · 05/01/2017 14:59

Oh no Horatio hope you haven't hurt yourself too badly Flowers

Kwick totally normal in the circumstances to feel so nervous. Channeling some pma your direction & everything crossed for good news tomorrow x

Got my PMS head on, absolutely everyone & everything is bugging me today. And just had some light spotting, so I'd say the bitch is on her blooming way yet again. Someone pass me the wine ...

1horatio · 05/01/2017 15:41

angel Wine Wine

I'm fine. It's just bruising... and luckily DD is alright (I kind of curled up around her to protect her, so she simply felt a jolt/lurch, said the doctor. I was a bit hysterical, but I don't think he lied...) and the brunt was absorbed by my ass and backside. We were both screaming really really loudly, DH was really panicked. Poor DH and DH :(!!

angel what a bitch... :( I always drink loads of yarrow tea. Brew

1horatio · 05/01/2017 15:42

*poor DH and DD there aren't 2 DH's! 😅

1horatio · 05/01/2017 15:43

Wait... that still isn't correct
Poor DH DD and DH,..

I got some pain meds,,,😂

kwick · 05/01/2017 19:36

horatio!!! Are you ok honey? Flowers

Thanks for advice and PMA viroids - just what I need. Have blood test first thing.

Just to let you know that Boots has a 3 for 2 on all opks and hpts... I may have just bought up all FRERS from Kings X branch
I may also just POAS - very relief filling that test line showed before control line.

1horatio · 05/01/2017 19:44

kwick

I'm fine. Just a bit loopy and quite fascinated by the colour and size a bruise can be. But thanks!! 😊 And DD didn't get hurt at all! Which is the most important thing.

But according to the doc it's just a lot of bruising caused by blunt force. And DD is fine, so it's all good. Although, never again just with socks on the stairs. Or we need a stair carpet...

1horatio · 05/01/2017 19:47

And thanks for the boots tip! :)

SofiePendragon · 05/01/2017 20:05

Oh no Horatio! Hope you recover quickly! Flowers

Thanks for the boots tip kwick will head there tomorrow to stock up Smile good luck tomorrow!

I got my second progesterone result today. Before Xmas my progesterone was 1 and now it's 28. Not really sure if that means I've finally ovulated, or not Confused I did have ewcm over Xmas so I guess that fits, but Dr Google suggests 28 is too low Sad

kwick · 05/01/2017 21:17

horatio hope you are using loads of arnica!!!

sofie cannot help you on the numbers - sorry!

1horatio · 05/01/2017 22:00

sofie

I'm sorry, but I don't know enough to help you.
And thank you for your well wishes 😊

kwick
Yup, I'm making DH apply it ;)!

SofiePendragon · 05/01/2017 22:32

Thanks kwick and Horatio - I think it probably means something is happening and I'm now in the luteal phase which considering I'm on cd91 is something at least. So hopefully af will arrive at some point in the next week (or I'll get a bfp, but I'm not very hopeful about that) and I'll take things from there.

angelazul · 06/01/2017 16:34

And the witch is in the house AngryAngry I was expecting her anyway, very annoying all the same.

Horatio hope you've plenty of bad ass pain relief.

Sophie sounds like maybe you have iced. I wouldn't worry too much about info saying it might be too low - that's more of concern if the test was def done exactly 7dpo. And 28 is way better than 1, so you're heading in the right direction.

Kwick what news??? Been keeping everything crossed for you today.

ZylaB · 06/01/2017 18:09

Sorry angel Flowers

kwick · 06/01/2017 18:16

Frickerty fcuk angel Flowers I am so very sorry.

NFMW: My HCG was at 887 - from 187 on Monday - they are happy with my progress Grin
Progesterone at 164 - my highest level EVER - even when I was on 3 different types of medication!!!
This is good news!!! I am going to break out the 🍾 (sparkling elderflower cordial).

cookielove · 06/01/2017 18:45

Oh wow kwick great news!

1horatio · 06/01/2017 19:14

kwick that's awesome :)!!!

ZylaB · 06/01/2017 19:43

That's brilliant kwick!!
