Asseyez-vous mes amies and ready yourselves for the BESH Eurovision contest ever. Get ready with your Central European fashion, transvestites and inability to sing anything in tune. Get ready to rip your skirts off and leave your other halves no option but to make their mind up (do you see what I did there?) to get down to some swi and do your best not to think of Terry Wogan at any point in the proceedings. Finally, get ready to yell ?nul points? at the evil Droid should it dare to make an appearance.

Newbies, approach in high euro-camp mode, find and complete the BESHtionnaire to let us judge whether you are cynical and menkul enough to join us.

I had a break for a yoghurt and a pint of water (ignoring the plaintive faces of cats who hoped my presence in the kitchen might mean a second breakfast). I also booked all my train tickets back and forth for scans. And now I am reading faithy's recommended BBC pages. V helpful.

I am not occasionally pausing to fantasise about holding a baby. Definitely not.

Yes northey you're due a Brew by now! You can only concentrate for 45 minute periods at a time!
euro you're right. It's like it jumps out at you. I remember after a bereavement death seemed to be everywhere. All over the tv, any film I watched! Stuff I'd never really connected with suddenly felt poignant. Then again birth and death are simply a part of life but heightened when you're experiencing or not in the case of ttc! them?
I've managed to shower and change the bed. Definitely better - last two weeks I could only strip it and got MSB to help me put the fresh stuff on. I've just done it all myself!

We are working our way through 24 on Netflix. There was even a pregnancy on there in the episode we were watching last night. There is no escape.

Can I have a revision break yet? (ok, ok, I know I've only been doing it for an hour...)

How about a bath, fee? I find that's a nice halfway house to being up.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/05/2012 09:43

Ha Dor I think I'd need that many to convince myself too! I need to think carefully about the tv I'm watching - in Glee there's teenage pregnancy along with a hysterical pregnancy and in One Tree Hill Haley has just announced she's diffed! Not helping the menkul!
I should get up to distract myself!

FriendofDorothy · 02/05/2012 09:28

I stopped recording after 7 - I think I tested for 12 days straight!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/05/2012 09:22

Yes, that's what drew me to buy a twin pack dor, I thought it would be easier to read. I looked at your chart the other day, made me Grin to see 7 positives recorded in a row!

FriendofDorothy · 02/05/2012 09:16

I like the Boots ones that gave a cross. Found them easier to read not that I have done 15 tests or so and I am an expert.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/05/2012 08:54

X-posts. Well done norf. If you want any more advice, or want me to look at the job description let me know!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/05/2012 08:52

Thanks blondie! I don't think much could fuel my menkul any worse than it already is! Currently browsing pregnancy test galleries to see ?BFPs and how they came out. Annoyingly most people don't update! Shame I'm not working really, would benefit from work disctrations! Instead I will be exchanging two curtain poles I got in the wrong size and asking the beauty lady who does my eyebrows her advice on what to do about my fingernail - I removed my cuticles and painted my nails on holiday. When I took the nail vanish off there was big gap and the top half has since fallen off. Nail bed is quite sore, wondering if having a gel nail over it will give my nail/ the bed time to heal?

Northey · 02/05/2012 08:50

Laptop is ON. Job description is FOUND. And I am not at all tempted to fanny about trying on interview outfits rather than revising. Not at all.

blonderthanred · 02/05/2012 08:40

Keeping everything crossed for you Faithy. not to add to your menkul but my first BFP was the faintest of faint lines that appeared after longer than it said on the packet

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/05/2012 08:29

Ah, start browsing missy!

Northey · 02/05/2012 08:23

My laptop is within arms reach. I just need to give myself a mental slap in the chops and start work.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/05/2012 08:19

I've had one evap line on a cheapie before - this is a Boots one where you'd see a cross for a BFP and I can see a thin line. Told MSB who after last time simply told me not to get my hopes up but test again tomorrow....
I'm really pleased to hear timing will work out for next cycle cavey :)
norf do you have a laptop and you could work from bed?

Northey · 02/05/2012 08:11

Hurrah for supportive sums!

I must start interview prep this morning but just can't lift my head off the pillow.

CaveMum · 02/05/2012 08:04

Norf, I get the Clomid sweats - very unpleasant but they only last for a few days.

Faith, I have been known to take sticks out of the bin several an hours later, but have never seen an evap line, so fingers crossed its a good sign for you.

We've "done the math" and if I take a test on Friday and, presuming it is negative, start the Clomid straight away HWHNN will be back from a certain sandy place before I ov.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/05/2012 07:56

Oh and sorry you had such a pants night's sleep norf.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/05/2012 07:55

since I fished it out the bin an hour later (like an idiot who really should know better) and found the faintest of lines Will do an FMU test again tomorrow assuming temps stay above the coverline!

Northey · 02/05/2012 07:45

Hmm. And no droid either. When is next stick planned for?

Woke up several times last night, really hot. And am shattered today. Must start sechsing again soon.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 02/05/2012 06:26

I was roasting last night too despite being freezing all day Hmm
Ok so, I POAS. BFN. But my chart shows my temp is still above the coverline so I'm a bit Confused Just a case of wait and see I think!

FriendofDorothy · 01/05/2012 23:17

Me too Northey and I have just got up out of bed cos I can't sleep. Bloody annoying as I have been comatose all day!

Northey · 01/05/2012 23:13

Don't know if this counts as a night sweat, but I'm absolutely boiling hot...

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 01/05/2012 20:12

Well boo! Nil points to BFNs and sludge all round!
bugs enjoy the vino and cheese. Not long til you're sunning yourself and fully enjoy the all inclusive [grin ] Envy Jealous? Moi?!
Lors it's been so luffly to have you around again to menkul with and good to know you're lurking still! Especially brilliant to hear shout the progesss with TOM. Are you under a specialist for all things baybee making? Definitely important that you get things. Investigated further.
Yes to clarify, my cervix is definitely less hairy than a sleeping bear!
