Ski Sunday music ready, the BESH are Bobsleighing their way through the icy slopes of hope and despair to win their medals

[cherrycoconut]

If you’re over 30, ttc over 12 months and wearing nipple tassels under your snowsuit then this just might be the thread for you - if you can prove yourself bitter and evil enough. We’ll be the judge of that. Don your snowsuit , cowbell ready - fill in the BESHtionnaire and prepare to meet our icy glare. This is a marathon, not a sprint.

I misread "bobsleighing" as "blowjobbing" - probably not the way to end up diffed...

[MyNameIsWinkly]

Gets the party started though draf :)

[FriendofDorothy]

I am just here for the apres ski.

[FrankelInFoal]

Dammit, I had a link fail on the final post of t'other fred

[ControlGeek]

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

[eurochick]

Nice new fred, cherry.

geek 16 eggsies is brilliant. Well done.

[maamalady]

Hopefully they've managed to catch it in time to stave off OHSS :)

Marking my place.

Oh Bugs, try not to stress. They've given you advice and options so at least you've not been left to it by yourself. Dairy Milk is definitely a good thing in these circumstances.

[Bearfacedchic]

We're with you Bugs. Glad you're feeling a bit better about it. Of course you can do it because a) you're a BESH and b) you're you. Here, have the cod of comfort. I've had it for far too long.

[eurochick]

EC is the most stressful bit bugs and that will be over and done with very soon. I guess you are triggering tomorrow?. Once you are past that it is just a fancy smear (ET) and some menkulling.

[ControlGeek]

bugs sorry you had a shitter of an appointment, and on your own at that. I'm glad the lady on the other fred, and the nurse at your clinic, was able to give you some additional advice. The hard part's nearly over now, then it's just the menkulling you have to worry about.

AFM, after the excitement of getting 16 eggs they then came in to tell me that of all the millions in MrG's deposit, they were struggling to find 16 that actually moved, like, at all. So would we mind hanging fire as MrG might have to go again. God, the poor love. Thankfully we were told about an hour or so later that they had managed to get all they needed. So this is it, definitely our last shot at having 'our' baybee. Bricking it about fertilisation, but it's all out of our hands now. Just got to keep drinking the water, eating the salty stuff and start with the bum bullets tonight. Doner kebab and chips for tea tonight

Hold tight Bugs. If it's only "a risk" then there's a good chance of it not happening, I guess. Do they not put embies back into someone who has had that? Is that the form?

Geek, how stressful :(. At least they got some in the end. Would there have been any more if he had had to perform again? Doesn't matter now, I guess.

We're going out for someone's birthday this evening to the Chinese. Will I be able to abstain? Hopefully everyone else won't be wasted. Maybe I'll try some of that alcohol free lager. The days of Kaliber are long gone.

[eurochick]

hest HCG (if a pregnancy results) can worsen OHSS so if it is a real risk, I think there is a preference to freeze and put the embies back later.

geek what a stress! I'm glad you got there in the end.
