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'm so happy for you! Sounds like this space was exactly what you needed. After everything you've gone through it was incredibly intense. I can imagine you meeting up and feeling like you're 'dating' again! Brilliant news :)
My temp has dropped a bit, not below the cover line but it looks like it's going that way :( I'll buy some tests today anyway. MSB has suggested we try OPKs next cycle too and agreed to the expensive ones! So if I'm not diffed we'll see if that helps.

It's going really well - thank you for asking! We're in month 3 of our 6-month 'trial separation to make the relationship work' thing and it's been very good for us. Have seen each other at least once a week, usually more. The best thing is that I finally feel re-connected with life again - I hadn't even realised how much I needed some space and time on my own. So I'm feeling optimistic that when we reach the end of this that we'll have worked through our pressing issues and we'll happily stay together. Smile

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 30/04/2012 22:59

Aw bless you :) How are things with TOM?

Northey · 30/04/2012 22:45

Ooh you great tart. Is sechsiness with TOM a regular sort of thing again?

LauraBunnyBoilerPalmer · 30/04/2012 22:42

What've I been up to...? I've been stalking you all religiously, mes luffly BESH! Grin And doin' a little sumpthin' sechy avec TOM. Without being particularly careful. (But honestly, I don't think it was at the right time even though I've been pouring over my calendar dates trying desperately to figure out if there is some wonderful way that it was at the right time !)

So, I've POAS daily since Thursday but I think that today is only 9 or 10 DPO. I'm
such a freak...

Forcing myself to lay off the sticks until Wednesday. I'm probably just confusing much-hoped-for updiffedness symptoms with delayed droidage anyway. (Irritating how easy it is to forget that they feel almost exactly the same...)

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 30/04/2012 22:24

Laura you'd need to NC before you can menkul on Conception boards without a BESH keeping their beady eye on you! Tis luffly to see you anyway. Do share what you've been up to?!

Northey · 30/04/2012 22:20

What have you been up to that requires a menkul, missy?

I am 7 weeks now. The time seems to be properly dragging!

CaveMum · 30/04/2012 21:34

Evening all. I've had a chat with HWHNN about everything and we've agreed to hold off on me testing/starting the Clomid again till Friday. That will mean CD14 (approx when I "usually" [ironic laugh] ovulate) will fall on 18 May, by which time HWHNN will be back from a certain sandy place.

Still keeping everything crossed for you both Faithy and Bugs

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 30/04/2012 19:55

I think droid is due Tuesday/Wednesday so maybe Wednesday if my temps stay up.
Envy about your holibobs! Lucky you. MSB wants to go abroad in the Autumn if I'm not diffed which would be nice.

Always the ironic way bugs. Glad to hear the boob grope made me feel better :) We have only had the sechs when I felt well enough this cycle and happened to time it well. Always helps when you ov over a weekend.
Still no spotting here despite obsessive knicker checking. Feeling very ropey, different to the recent illness. Seriously menkul.

Oh good, bugs, I was worried you were quiet because you were in hospital or something. Fingers crossed for a good resolution this weekend (by which I mean a bfp and instant confirmation it's all absolutely fine and normal. Even though technically I know they couldn't say tat straight away. But still.)

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 30/04/2012 18:55

Oh cavey luffly that's rubbish. Sorry it's not clearer for you. I hope things clear up soon. I think in your position I'd give it a few more days too. Fo you have any more sticks to pee on?
euro glad to hear this cycle is going to fit in with the iui. I bet it's difficult to decide with the travel whether it's easier to just have a rest, especially if you're gearing up for ivf.
dor rubbish that you're shattered but good because it means bean is sticky :) Are you still POAS regularly?!

Good point about manipulating cycles to match likely ov o'clock (love that, btw) with hwhnn's presence.

Is there no way with iui that you can do the same, euro to coincide with when you are not away with work?

eurochick · 30/04/2012 17:33

How confusing cavey. Will waiting a few days also mean that HWHNN will be back for ov o'clock? If so, I'd definitely wait.

I've just worked out that although the timing is fine for the next IUI cycle, for the cycle after that I will most likely to away for work over ov time. I am due to start downregging for IVF on day 21 of that cycle, so that really is out last chance saloon. In one way, I am sad that we will be missing it. In another, it will probably be good for us to have a cycle "off" - our first in a year and a half. And might mean that we stand a chance of going into IVF in a non-menkulling state.

Blimey, how does that work with people who get implantation bleeding and think it is droid?

I will test tomorrow before popping my first one, then!

FriendofDorothy · 30/04/2012 17:19

I am fine apart from feeling like I have been run over. Completely and utterly knackered.

CaveMum · 30/04/2012 17:09

Yes, taking Clomid while diffed can cause all sorts of awful problems so I need to be sure I am not diffed first. Hence why you usually take the pills after droid shows up.

Northey · 30/04/2012 17:01

You rebel!

What will the extra days achieve? Just a few more days in which to test?

CaveMum · 30/04/2012 16:48

Temps and pant snot are all I have to go on!
Nursey says "not possible" and that I don't need another blood test, so I have to go along with her.

I might be a bit naughty and just give it a few more days to see what happens before starting the Clomid again.
