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.

We are all a bit bonkers, worshipping the travelling womble conker, we rub the grad's bumps for luck and shag without scientific schmuck (Most of the time!) Its Just Shagging 56!

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.

Welcome San Pelligrini, that was all I could drink in the first trimester, can't even look at a can now ha ha! Hopefully that is some kind of good omen for you!

EllaBella07 · 14/12/2015 17:04

Welcome San Pelligrini! We are newbies together Smile

ChatEnOeuf · 14/12/2015 17:20

Welcome, Pelli :) 11 months! Good stalking not freaked out by that

honeysucklejasmine · 14/12/2015 17:41

Welcome Pelli! 11 months, cor blimey!

Just get in bed and stay there. Flowers

LondonGirl83 · 14/12/2015 20:42

Welcome Pelli

Catscatsandmorecats · 14/12/2015 20:48

Oh just! I've had both in the past but not together, you must be feeling horrid Flowers for you. And I echo everyone else, you must, must rest, your health is more important than work.

Welcome pelli gx for you.

justtheonethen · 14/12/2015 21:12

Thanks all, I'm snuggled in bed with the cat. Any good suggestions for trashy tv? I'm feeling too shit to read.

Welcome pelli

SanPellegrini · 14/12/2015 21:53

Thanks for the welcome. Seems so bizarre to be finally having a go Wink

Hope you feel better soon Just x

honeysucklejasmine · 14/12/2015 21:56

Just do you have Netflix?

LondonGirl83 · 14/12/2015 23:05

Good tv-- Orange is the New Black

Trashy- Million Dollar Listing NY which should be on catch up ;)

justtheonethen · 15/12/2015 07:32

Yep got Netflix and Amazon prime. Thanks for suggestions!

fruitlovingmonkey · 15/12/2015 09:11

Poor you just, sounds horrible. Hope you get a lot of rest. I recommend The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt on Netflix.

honeysucklejasmine · 15/12/2015 09:18

Yy to OITNB and Kimmy Schmidt. Also Scorpion is pretty good for a bit of nerd/crime drama and there are loads of silly shows like Gossip Girl and Once Upon a Time there too.

honeysucklejasmine · 15/12/2015 09:19

Oh, and White Collar is good and bonus is the lead, Matt B... Something is very very hot.

fruitlovingmonkey · 15/12/2015 09:41

Ooh I'll have to try White Collar. I got quite into Suits, it's a bit goofy but there are some great one liners in it.
Does anyone know when the next series of OITNB is coming out?

EllaBella07 · 15/12/2015 09:50

I really enjoyed Jessica Jones and we've just started watching The Man in the High Castle

justtheonethen · 15/12/2015 10:32

Doctor just called asking me to repeat the blood test I had yesterday, sounds ominous right?

justtheonethen · 15/12/2015 10:42

Loads of good suggestions, thanks viroids

justtheonethen · 15/12/2015 10:43

Got my progesterone results though and they were 44, that's ok right?

LondonGirl83 · 15/12/2015 15:52

Sounds good just. I think anything over 30 is considered very good.

NFMO (ovaries)- I did an OPK this afternoon (still negative) but I can feel my left ovary hurting. I'm due to ice tomorrow based on my normal cycles. Going to shag tonight and test again in the morning. If I can sneak in an extra shag tomorrow, even better!

justtheonethen · 15/12/2015 15:59

Go you, keep shagging, sounds like your ovaries are gearing up to do something.

NFMV: af not here yet but I had a bfn yesterday so it's only a matter of time. Can your period get delayed by medication? I am taking a crazy amount.

SanPellegrini · 15/12/2015 16:13

I heard Jessica Jones is supposed to be good Ells. Think we maybe have to invest in Netflix in the new year

Got ewcm so best don the cape tonight. Midweek so DH will wonder what's going on!

angelazul · 15/12/2015 17:01

Welcome Pelli

Just I'd second The Man in the High Castle - only watched a couple of episodes, but so far it's amazing. Atm I've been watching The Bridge & Homeland. I hear good things about Narcos too - started to try to watch it last night, but fell asleep almost straight away lol.

London keep shagging!!!

NFMV: the witch has done one, date night with hubby tonight, so time to get the cape on Grin

MyBlackCat · 15/12/2015 19:03

Get well soon just sounds rubbish.

Interview done today so I'm back in the real world Grin hello newbies, hope your stay is short.

Zero chance of upduffness this month, no sperm has been near my eggs, going to get pissed over Christmas and hope that 2016 will be the year.

BRING IT ON

Hiya - newbie here!
I'm 34 (just)
Cycle #2 since coming off the pill but 1st TTC.

I am also on the 'we were waiting until January but now we aren't' thread but trying not to descend into the madness of OPKs and the like just yet! So I hope it's OK to sneak in here too..?

Somehow I am supposed to be fertile around my 35th birthday and on 2ww over Christmas and New Year! I have absolutely no idea how I am going to manage to abstain from alcohol or even if I actually need to...
