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.

Thanks la!! Enjoy donning the cape this weekend Grin

DH was pissed as a fart when he came in- he was making me giggle but I decided not to tell him... I'll do another test in the morning to show him if he seems awake enough- might have to wait until he gets in tomorrow evening though- I suspect he'll be in a foul mood in the morning!

Ooh go away for a few days and come back to this!! Congrats scottish!!

FC appointment tomorrow, fingers crossed they put me on IVF list.

Baby bomb today, and accidental at that. How does that happen?! I can't believe I bothered with contraception for years! Bloody close family too, feeling irrationally pissed off but know I'm just jealous! Am being very judgy as they are not in a position to have a baby, and they annoyed me more by saying "no one plans for a baby do they, it just happens" Confused

Pos opk yesterday, dtd yesterday and today but DH away now so no chance until Sunday so no more chance. Although I'm not sure it makes any difference to me now anyway so I'm not going to stress lies.

Haven't read back, just flicked for line photos! Hope all well?

kwick stabbing away? Growing some massive follicles I hope!

Evening Viroids,

Hugs Zyla, and a sly bum squeeze to cheer you up. You will get there.

Hooya La! Despite your most excellent efforts you are not allowed to be disheartened after one cycle!

Scottish Woo!! Remind me, are you TTC #1?

Corgi, you made me actually LOL picturing you randomly shouting ANXIETY at your petrified DH! Hang on in there.

So, if my body has magically reset to to 28 day cycles post pregnancy then AF is due this weekend. It would make ttc much easier if this were the case!

I've done some googling and it looks as though I wouldn't get travel insurance after 28 weeks of upduffedness so may have to put off actually ttc until the end of Jan. MEH. You know I'm going to end up with another Xmas pudding don't you?

Too excited to sleep- can't wait to tell DH this morning!!

Ooh cori how exciting!!! POAS POAS POAS

Pud we are TTC #1 and this is my first ever BFP!

Does anyone know why you shouldn't have a smear if you are pregnant? Do the hormones change the nature of the cells?
I'm due a smear today and want to have it as I had a 6 month recall for abnormal cells but I'm not sure if it's a bad idea... I have a wee lump on my cervix which is probably nothing but which I'd like them to reassure me about!

Happy Friday everyone!!!

Scottish I'd go anyway, particularly if it's a recall. Better safe than sorry! I had one when I was 6 weeks pregnant but hadn't pissed hot yet, no issues.

Yay just! So excited for you. How do things happen - do you get called in when it's your turn?
Also cannot believe baby bomb and that twit at your work - well done on your restraint!!!
Scottish eeeeeeeeee! Cannot contain excitement. Are you coming to grads soon or being a wimp waiting til scan like me?

Report
ScottishLady7 · 16/12/2016 18:39

Just that's great, did the appointment go well? Did they give you an idea of timeframes?

corgi I am majorly being a wimp. My anxiety is preventing me from getting excited and I have faint pink cm happening which is making me wonder whether AF is about to arrrive... Obviously this could all be normal early pregnancy nonsense but it looks like it's going to be a looooong 40 weeks!!

So in answer to your question, I'm waiting until I've had a scan. I also think I'm going to organise a private one at 7 weeks- has anyone else done this?

Report
justtheonethen · 16/12/2016 18:55

He said it should start in 2-3 months. Feeling a bit more positive now there is a plan.

Was speediest appointment ever, he sighed at my totally normal test results and said "well we've tried everything, IVF it is" and started filling in the form. I'm happy, I think, having a 'shit's getting real' moment!

Congrats kwick and just!

I saw my GP today. He said theres no point in doing blood hcg if hpts negative but he is arranging for me to have a load of other blood tests to check my hormones and an ultrasound. Next appt for blood tests is next weds so not expecting any results until the new year, but at least I've started the ball rolling

Good on you just bloody cheek and just so insensitive!
Yay you are on the IVF list!!! Let me know if you have any questions - happy to share what I know/experienced. What type of IVF are you going to do?


scottish my FC do a 7 week scan and then an 8 week one - then you go into the usual NHS cycle. They look for the egg sac and yolk and heartbeat. I have had both. Let me know if you have any questions. Grin


Great progress sofie

I am all set for my IUI tomorrow - I injected the ovulation trigger a little while ago!!! May just have my last slurp of milk... and must remember to get a pineapple!!!

Corgi, I just saw your DH's FB post and thought something bad had happened. I came screeching over here to see if you were okay and you posted at 6 o clock so I think his post must be referring to your other tiny babies? You are okay, right? .
