Conception

When's the best time to get pregnant? Use our interactive ovulation calculator to work out when you're most fertile and most likely to conceive.

It is the goat jazz we seek, but the twee monitors have too much opinion on getting between the sheets, sexpests writing notes we may be, but at least the bins go out! We're all praying our uterus won

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 know 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, who wouldn't?

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.

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

Yay niff told you SuperDrug ones are the one!! You can officially graduate now

ChatEnOeuf · 03/05/2015 07:46

Wow, Niff That's a beauty! Congrats :)

honeysucklejasmine · 03/05/2015 07:52

Yes Niff, that's much more like it! Congratulations!

fallenstar27 · 03/05/2015 07:57

Congratu-fucking-lations niff ^

LaLaLaaaa · 03/05/2015 08:12

Yaaaaaaaay!!!!! Mfbfp!

Congratulations niff! Pop over and say hi on grads when you're ready

LaLaLaaaa · 03/05/2015 08:15

Just I read back through last nights posts. I would feel exactly the same as you. Can you have a quiet word with your DM and ask for your stuff to be kept for you?

Niffertiti · 03/05/2015 08:23

Thanks everyone. I'll hang around here for now if that's ok, given what happened last time I want to make it through the next few weeks before I get too excited about this one. Hope to come and say hi to the grads before too long tho La!

Just YANBU. Thanks I'm presuming your mum doesn't know you've been TTC? I know it's a very personal decision whether to tell people or not, but I'm very glad both our families know we've been trying for a while now. With two pg SILs it's meant they've all been really kind. I can't believe she would do it if she knew?

pretzelpieces · 03/05/2015 08:35

niff congratulations on your bfp!! Brilliant news.

Thanks for the replies re period tracker. I've marked AF as finishing today as is basically spotting and I get the impression all it would do is push my icing date back slightly so I'll just JS for a few days later to make sure I've covered it.

CountryGal4 · 03/05/2015 08:36

just prosecco? Once were both upduffed this cycle obviously let's run away together

niff today you are bloody well upduffed!!!!!!

CarrotPuff · 03/05/2015 08:38

That's a hell of a line Niff, congrats!

Just, no words, but Flowers

5hell · 03/05/2015 08:50

Nice line nif !! Very many lots of congratulations! We are on a roll :)

Just had first shag, no tears, very nice, used condom as couldnt cope with uncertainty of next period, so on a little break from ttc, but will hang around to cheer on all these bfps Grin

nutellawithbananas · 03/05/2015 08:51

That's a great line - congrats!!!

All is well again in the nut house ;-) managed to seduce mr nut and get what i wanted!!! Will try again next 2 nights...

pretzelpieces · 03/05/2015 08:51

Stats niff!! Tell us all the details Grin

justtheonethen · 03/05/2015 09:12

niff that is a massive bfp! Congratulations! This is a very lucky thread!

Unfortunately mum does know we have been trying! Think she's caught up in the excitement of being a grandma and not really thinking straight. Or maybe my family are just acting like cunts, my sis told me to "relax blah blah blah" last night when discussing my non upduffedness so I'll leave you to decide. You can't punch a pregnant can you?
Thanks 'internet ladies', you're all so lovely.

country I'm in! Do I need to dig out my passport?

7dpo, let the crazy commence!

jellypi3 · 03/05/2015 09:15

Yes niff congrats! :) we will need to recruit more newbies at this rate!!

5hell how long a break are you taking? Good that you didn't get upset though :)

Just it was Labour, our area is sickeningly one of the few UKIP hotspots so he's determined to do his best to stop them getting in power (sorry to any UKIP supporters but I can't stand them). I was asleep by the time he got home so no shag :(

Sky have you tested again?

CountryGal4 · 03/05/2015 09:19

We could go abroad... Yes you do.
Definately feeling the 7 dpo crazies right now. I just want to knooooooow

And yes you can punch a prego if she's being a cuntbag... Equality and all that

Hobbit19 · 03/05/2015 09:20

Yey Niff! it's official, how exciting! Everything crossed for stickyness.

5hell, well done brave lady and glad you are hanging around.

How are you doing this morning Sky?

Stoatystoat · 03/05/2015 09:25

5hell well done and with a condom too...we just took a break from shagging when we had the month break as I couldn't contend with a condom - you're very brave. It's amazing how quick you get back into it.

Happy Sunday morning all

picklethistle · 03/05/2015 09:27

just "you can't punch a pregnant can you?" For the greetings cards? Gentle warning card to be respectful of the non upduffed. Cake for you, I hope they come to they're senses soon.

Well done niff with the BFP confirmation!

county I am too stuck in the middle of the TTW, very annoying.

lildottie · 03/05/2015 09:39

just of course you can punch her, just aim for face not bump Wink

niff yay! gx for a sticky bean

jelly dear god is ur dh insane. who the fuck would, in their right mind, campaign for a total wanker like ed milliband?!! regardless of all the shit the labour parry created last time they were in office! think I'll go live with chat if labour get in. I think as much as the opinion polls show ukip are doing well, when it comes to putting the x in the box people will feel its a waste of a vote as they'd never get a coalition with labour or conservatives. plus people won't want a hung parliament due to the risk of an SNP coalition so the main 2 will get the votes as usual. IMO! gets off soapbox Blush

nut 10/10 for JSing

just ouch! I think (hope) it must just be over excitement affecting the empathy gland ?!!

jel just not trying until after AF returns, so 4-6weeks according to interweb.

We might be almost ndns jel?! ..ukip v active nearby, not my constituency which is "ultra safe conservative" apparently but several friends n colleagues getting bombarded with farages face Hmm

DulcetMoans · 03/05/2015 09:52

Congrats niff! Turning into a very lucky thread! Keep the nerves at bay and PMA!

Sounds tough just. Talking to her might help but depends on relationship. You can verbally punch a pregnant lady, or maybe an arm punch? Just avoid the middle!

UKIP won't get far. Two seats maybe. Farage just said on telly that they would scrap BBC entertainment so no strictly or Dr Who - need to get that message out as people will care about that! Haha. Good on your DP for campaigning jelly. Not my party but we campaign here and respect for anyone that puts effort in - elections are tough!

gaggiagirl · 03/05/2015 10:08

Oh niff congratulations! Lovely news and a lovely strong line.

jellypi3 · 03/05/2015 10:32

Haha my DP is very left wing lil, but he doesn't like red ed. I have no idea who I'll vote this time Round! I think all the parties (excluding ukip) are very much the same to be perfectly honest!

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 03/05/2015 10:53

Congrats niff you treasure you!

Have used an ic this morning and was same as yesterday, tiny bit of squint. The children leapt on me so missed getting a pic for you. After yesterdays optimism I am gearing myself up for a bfn. I do wonder whether all the hormones I take could be reacting with the ics. Also, I went off my megadose B supplement for a couple of months and have only just restarted it so my old womb maybe isn't too hospitable lately and I might be catching cps. I think we may get a fertility monitor if this isn't our month.

DP and I had a huge row last night which led into a good talk (eventually) and I think we have worked it out now but not before lots of tears and me running away to sit in the garden of the pub down the road for an hour because I lost my temper and screamed again. I just don't know what is wrong with me. I've always been emotional but not angry. I don't know why I feel so angry. Sigh.
