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

hi Thursday!

fun fact for you, sperm count is slightly higher in the morning. if you're struggling with EOD/ed then try and get a morning spoon in to get some extra swimmers!

Hi janey, krissy and Thursday.

Hobbit19 · 04/05/2015 10:53

Ooh 4k to spend on clothes Lil, now that is a lot of shagging motivation right there!!!

WouldRatherHaveWine · 04/05/2015 11:36

So let's just go with a hello to the newbs, Flowers for those who needs them, gx for those who want them, and Cake for me because I'm a fatty and I'm tired.

boddess14 · 04/05/2015 11:58

Hey shaggeroos!
lil I'm so happy to read what u said about sperm count this morning!

Think I've just finished my marathon! Managed to shag every day for the last five days with a little bonus one this morning. Lots of ewcm and cervix is totally ready! Been lying with legs in the air!

Thanks for the shagging inspiration girls!
Please gx for me! Grin
Hope this is a lucky fred!

Hobbit19 · 04/05/2015 12:07

Ha ha good effort bod and gx for you!

Hobbit19 · 04/05/2015 12:08

Sky, any sign of AF?

honeysucklejasmine · 04/05/2015 12:09

We are off here this afternoon. Yummy yummy yummy!

Bodess I think you need a medal after all that shagging! or an ice pack

SockQueen · 04/05/2015 12:14

Good work boddess!

I stuffed myself silly at the British Street Food Awards yesterday. It was pissing down with rain so I had to keep eating to keep warm, or something like that...

Supposed to be going out leafleting for DH's friend later, but haven't heard any definite plans.

WouldRatherHaveWine · 04/05/2015 12:57

sock a day dedicated to eating food?! Why did I not know about this?!

Fabulous effort bod!

MyBlackCat · 04/05/2015 13:20

Happy bank holiday viroids, sun is shining here, hope it is for all of you.

Welcome newbies..

I've just tried to invoke the law of sod by entering the ballot for next years London Marathon. I did it last year and a week later got a bfp - shame neither happened Sad

I can only aspire to some of the shagging exploits on here. We have done it 3 times this fertile period and I am now around 3dpo, patiently waiting...

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 04/05/2015 13:57

Afternoon all! No sign of the witch over this way. I had a slight backache earlier which is sometimes a sign and nothing. Had a big cry on DP and a long nap. Going to blow off work I planned to do today and go to HomeSense instead.

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 04/05/2015 13:58

honey that looks delish!

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 04/05/2015 14:04

Also Cake Flowers Brew and Wine for everyone. Also GX for lil and everyone else twotting.

ThursdayLast · 04/05/2015 14:44

MyBlackCat I too have attempted to wind up Sod by entering the ballot. Sorry for last year, things can only get better right?

Yes pretzel and fallen v much a Fforde reference - some bugger had already taken thursdaynext though I've never seen them

Congratulations janey. I hope you have as wonderful a day as we did!

ThursdayLast · 04/05/2015 14:46

Just checking 'dpo'
Days past ovulation??

pretzelpieces · 04/05/2015 14:50

Yes that's right, days past ovulation. Thursday Last is morning original anyway! Smile I like it!

pretzelpieces · 04/05/2015 14:51

More original. I can't type today.

Ain626 · 04/05/2015 15:09

You lot have definitely been chatty this weekend!! Grin

Yay to Niff that was a fantastic line. Hope the bean sticks!

Sky I hope you get some answers soon.

Hello to the newbies that have joined.

I'm in the feeling crappy club too atm. Though have just eaten some Ben and Jerrys and been reading through the Fred which has made me feel a bit better.

Who was it that was talking about soy? I've decided I'm going to give it a go... see what happens and all that. Whatever happens this month has to be better than the ridiculous 9 month cycle (can I even call it a cycle???). Anyway I took 120mg on CD3 and 4. Today is CD5 and I'm going to take 160mg, will probably take 160 on CD6 and maybe 200 on CD7.

stoatystoat · 04/05/2015 15:21

Hello janey krissy and thursday

GX for you lil

Hope everyone having a lovely bank holiday.

Ours has been lazy. Trying to work up the energy to go for a run and I'm in two minds about shagging, we are CD15....I'm a bit crampy today so not sure (it across my tummy rather than at the side) I fancy shagging or running tbh. But I will probably regret not doing come CD28. I wish I knew my DPO!

WouldRatherHaveWine · 04/05/2015 15:49

OMG I have just checked FF. Fertile days Thurs through to Sunday, ovulation on sun. OH is on night shifts. Bollocks

WouldRatherHaveWine · 04/05/2015 15:51

I have 3 apps, ff and 2 others. They all give different ovulation dates!
thank god for contraband
