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.

Just lost a bloody long post.

Crux of post:

Hang in there Kwick - visualise the brand new bathroom! Brand. New. Bathroom. I'm so jealous. Are you keeping the wall colour? I like it.

Purple get a new GP. Yours doesn't sound helpful. How long have you been trying for no2? Sending you Cake and Brew and a class unmumsnetty js hug.

Choo try not to let brain weasels get to you. Shivers does not equal mc. It can't help if you're on your own this weekend (I'm assuming) but please try not to talk yourself into believing it's all over. I can't imagine it's easy with what's happened this year. Have you taken some paracetamol and if so, has it helped?

I'm doing another kitten - got a BFP at 10dpo. Not really sure it's sunk in yet/ I'm feeling quite guarded with myself about getting attached/excited yet.

Presh12345 · 24/09/2017 02:25

Update: up for work at 5, POAS, BFN.
AF due Wednesday. 😓

coribeth · 24/09/2017 10:24

So cd33 and no sign of af Hmm she's fucking with me I just know the minute I get slightly hopeful she will rear her ugly head! Angry

peachesarenom · 24/09/2017 11:36

Name: Peaches
Age: 34
TTC since Jan 2017

I think this is the fred for me!

Are you shagging everyday or everyother day???

Presh12345 · 24/09/2017 14:28

Do you reckon it is too early to test for me?? DTD 13th and 15th, AF due 27th. Am desperately hoping that my sore achy boobs and my starving tummy are not just AF en route.

kwick · 24/09/2017 15:23

feathered walls will be white (where tiles are not) and the "beam" purple.

Umm excuse me -feathered???? Are you with child????

presh Flowers may still be too early... did you use a FRER?

Have a lurgy 🤧🤒😷

kwick · 24/09/2017 15:24

Welcome peaches!

peachesarenom · 24/09/2017 15:29

Thanks kwick!

choochooo · 24/09/2017 20:04

Presh happy birthday!!
How many dpo? What day did you ovulate and what is your normal lp? I'd say it's too early. Not out til the red witch zooms in. Hooyah

LG I hear you - those are the hardest. I am particularly sad when I see the Facebook posts of 'only ** weeks to go!' And it's someone due at same time as one of my lost babies :(

Purple lovely Hi! You need to insist on referral. Change GP if you have to. Hugs Cake

Squidge I get so annoyed with GPS who spout that shite. It's completely over exaggerated. The specialist I'm seeing on Friday says it's completely scaremongering older women to point where anxiety is then such a major factor in them not being able to conceive.

Kwick a bauble?! Bring on Christmas! GlitterballGlitterballGlitterballGlitterballGlitterballGlitterball
Oh hang on! Is it the Strictly mirrorball?

Ffs Choo rtft they already said this

I love home improvement Blush I'm weird. Probably because I live in rented so can't do any

Feather WHAT?! You're upduffed?! You've done another kitten?! Get OUT! Points at door joking!!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!
Jeez I wish I had your ovaries. So how old will minifeather be? Are we due around same time? (22nd may)

Cori how many dpo?

Peaches come on in pulls up a chair welcome!
Do you have a cat?

I feel better which means it was flu not MS. Fuuuuuck. Scan thurs and RMC Friday. This week we shall know if we are having a baby this time or not. I'm fucking bricking it. Had my acupuncture yesterday

peachesarenom · 24/09/2017 21:49

No cat sadly. Just an annoying hubby!

coribeth · 25/09/2017 00:58

Hmm about 16dpo give or take I don't track js! She will probably wait for the most inconvenient moment to make an appearance so I'm betting it will be mid dinner at the nice little French place we are going to for my sisters birthday tomorrow!!! Trust me she has form! Angry

Rubberduckies · 25/09/2017 08:16

Peaches Hi! Welcome to the Fred. I don't have a cat either, but I'm still allowed in! In answer to your question - we're doing every other day. Mostly. Sometimes a bit more or less, we're trying not to get too stressed about it (Hahaha I wish)

Feathered Yay a kitten! This is a pretty lucky thread so far, I like it!

Kwick I feel for you and the house improvements! We've almost finished our kitchen and waiting for carpet upstairs. It's been a long time in the making!

Choo All fingers crossed for you, hope it all goes well

Someone asked about apps - I've got Ovia and Fertility Friend. I prefer Ovia but think the temperature graph in Fertility Friend is better. I need to decide which to use really.....at the moment, with me logging periods and temperature (and the odd opk just to check) they both say the same and are accurate when I check. I'm not a great jser as you can tell.....

kwick · 25/09/2017 08:19

presh Happy Birthday!!!

choo I absolutely concur!!! Fertility DOES NOT fall off a cliff at 35 - the study is about 100 years old and not at all representative of today's health!!!

GlitterballGlitterballGlitterball don't care what it is!!! It is silver and shiny!!!

Today would have been my due date Sad instead it may be the day my flat is finished.

kwick · 25/09/2017 08:21

peaches I don't have a cat either nor do I shag but the viroids kindly let me stick around Grin

Canters15 · 25/09/2017 10:14

It is indeed kwick mad snog right back at you!
Right, I have to shuffle off this fred. I'm Super broody and cannot TTC now oh no I can't despite having just stopped the pill due to constant bleeding will be back soon!

LG93 · 25/09/2017 19:59

Witch got me this evening. I'm down but not out - Roll on next month! Glitterball

peachesarenom · 25/09/2017 22:42

Rubberduckies,

Cheers every other day should be doable. I'm so tired of shagging. I think I should get a book or something and try something different.

I may not have a cat but I am friends with one, she's called popsey and she eats everything!

peachesarenom · 25/09/2017 22:43

Feathered congrats! I aspire to kittendom!

kwick · 26/09/2017 07:45

lg Flowers

Blimey just remembered have IVI appt at 9!!! Feel like shite with the lurgy 🤒🤧😷

coribeth · 26/09/2017 08:38

KWICK hope you are feeling better soon good luck with the appointment

Welcome to all the newbs!
So cd35 and still no visits from dear af Confused can feel her lurking!

kwick · 26/09/2017 17:57

Thanks coribeth
Appt went well. No shortage of donors - will hear more soon on timings. Probably looking at December though as I have decided to get both donors checked for genetic issues that could occur in embryos. The ball is definitely rolling!

Catscatsandmorecats · 26/09/2017 19:13

For those who would like to see, baby pic coming up in next post.

Choo I hope you're feeling better - FWIW, I got I'll early in all my pregnancies, I don't think it had a bearing on what happened

Feathered Eeeek!

Waves to Cori

Catscatsandmorecats · 26/09/2017 19:15
