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.

That's so exciting just Smile And coribeth too! I just read Sally Donovan's book No Matter What and found it excellent.

stumblymonkeyagain · 02/07/2017 21:20

Exciting times for you Just!

Cori...for you too! How long does the process take?

My honeymoon is a luxury safari in South Africa and then 9 nights in Mauritius next May, verrrrry excited!

I did two tests last week that I still had lying around from last year and both negative. Boobs still very sore but I do feel like I'm about to be paid a visit by AF, in which case we will be trying to keep a lid condom on it until next April.

justtheonethen · 02/07/2017 21:41

Honeymoon envy -> Envy

Rubberduckies · 03/07/2017 06:52

So it turns out I'm a better lurker than contributor!

Congratulations Just :)

I caved and bought some OPKs. Not so we can get all stressy about when to have sex, but I wanted to check my app was calculating things right! And it is. So I should stop.....

Hope every ones doing ok :)

honeysucklejasmine · 03/07/2017 19:23

FuzzyOwl · 03/07/2017 22:37

I hope the process speeds up for you cori.

coribeth · 03/07/2017 23:03

Think it takes between 9. To 12 months on average or so we have been told spoke to the social worker earlier and we are going on our prep course now in just under two weeks so at least feel like things are starting to move forward again at least
stumbly wow well jel your honeymoon sounds amazing!!

user1494935220 · 04/07/2017 22:09

Thank you Flowers

Thank you for this thread. Thank you for making me realise it's going to be ok. It's made me smile for the first time in days. I'm miscarrying my first pregnancy at 12 weeks and I'm devastated. I've spent the last few days in a huge puddle of tears.

This thread has made me realise that there will be light at the end of the tunnel, there can be excitement, laughter and joy around pregnancy and that we will try again.

Good luck ladies, enjoy trying and enjoy your pregnancies. Flowers

Elbi · 04/07/2017 23:39

Aw hi. I'm so sorry to hear what you're going through. That really really sucks Flowers But yeah there is light at the end of the tunnel and there's always us bunch of dickheads. Hope you're doing ok.

user1494935220 · 05/07/2017 10:42

Thank you elbi ❤️

stumblymonkeyagain · 05/07/2017 14:03

So sorry to hear that User...

Is there anything you can do to be extra nice to yourself at the moment?

stumblymonkeyagain · 05/07/2017 14:08

So it's very, very, very early days (today is due date) but of course having tried for months last year with no success...this just happened which will totally bugger our honeymoon plans.

Still a good thing though, will just take some adaption of plans and maybe the deferral of the amazing honeymoon until our 20th wedding anniversary!

Will be hanging around for a while on this Fred as anything could happen in the next few weeks as we all know...

Just looked up James Spader and couldn't work out what I knew him from but remembered him looking stern... Then I was like ohhhh, Secretary Grin

Congrats stumbly! I might book hubby and me a glorious second honeymoon to see if we can tempt sod's law....

BlueSky1980 · 06/07/2017 17:53

Hello viroids, I've been lurking on here since starting ttc 3 months ago. It's the only thread that seems sane! Thought I'd introduce myself...

Name: BlueSky1980
Age: 36
DC: None (took ages to decide we wanted / were ready to try!)
TTC: 3rd month

First month convinced myself I was up-duffed stopped drinking completely & did a lemon got bfn then AF'd. More chilled now but suprised at how much it takes over your brain (who knew I wanted a baby this much!!) Taught DH about ghost jizz which he now finds hilarious & spends time texting me pics of him eating dark chocolate & bannanas making sure he gives me 'quality jizz'!
About to start getting my cape on in super style. Fingers crossed third month lucky & good luck all... have fun!
