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.

Thanks euro. Went for a run. Almost vomited. Now had bacon sarnie and a cup of tea. Not sure if I'm going to move off the sofa today. Blush

But cycle was 32days. Post ov drilling have gone from 44-60-37-35-34-32. Shortening cycles have got to be good, no?

sinkingflameofhilarity · 21/04/2012 11:56

Morning BESHes.

Have fun with the fun shopping faith. I'm going out later to try and get a new red lippy if I can be arsed

Norf, try not to stress. All the best people fail first time Wink (eek, not that you will, but if you do, but sure you'll be fine )

Droid has mounted a successful surprise attack here. Boom, the fufc win out he window. So my Saturday is going to be spent in a cd1 strop. Hence the hunt for a new red lipstick. Screw you droid.

Well I'm a happy bunny cos I've ordered my iPhone. Get an NHS off my bill too so essentially I'll get more minutes and data per month for less on my monthly bill Grin with cashback for my old phone that covers the cost of the new one I'm essentially quids in!
We're off now to spend MSB's bonus and my tax rebate: replacement necklace for one I lost for me, dart board Hmm for him.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 21/04/2012 10:39

NHS genius innit?!
norf it's understandable since your cycles are so variable!

eurochick · 21/04/2012 10:31

Faithey that is quite spectacularly sh1t.

BFN on CD30. And yes, I know that testing now is v v silly :)

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 20/04/2012 18:47

Jeepers creepers!

Northey · 20/04/2012 18:19

Someone has started a thread asking if 33 is too old for her 3rd child. Fuxache.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 20/04/2012 18:08

Ps winkly has gone a bit quiet, iz you ok winkers?

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 20/04/2012 17:29

Close cavey but just that bit more ironic. Twas for 20th April Hmm Probably arrived about 3 hours after the appointment time...
Annoying as it is cavey, I guess all you can do is chalk it up to experience. I'd be miffed in your position too!

CaveMum · 20/04/2012 17:16

I'm going to punt for 19th April???

If I had gone for the bluddy Day 21 test I'd know at least whether I ov'd before that or between that and Day 30! Ho hum!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 20/04/2012 17:08

Norf I failed at least two mock tests and then I passed first time!
cavey that's rather unhelpful! I will hold hands with you as you menkul.
Here's my NHS humour for the day. Received a letter for my follow up gynae appointment. Letter dated 29th March, posted 18th April. Who wants to guess when the appointment was for?!

CaveMum · 20/04/2012 16:38

Just got off the phone to the clinic, I had too many questions about my dodgy cycle.

The nurse said they can't tell when I ov'd as they don't know if they caught the progesterone on the way up or on the way down. But there is no doubt that i have ov'd.
She said to wait at least a week from the blood test (Weds) before even thinking about peeing on anything and told me off (nicely) for using OPKs. She said she doesn't recommend them for PCOS as sufferers tend to produce iffy levels of LH. That's me told!

So, Menkul Town here I come!

CaveMum · 20/04/2012 15:34

Boo to failed test Norf. I'm sure you'll ace the real thing.

Northey · 20/04/2012 14:40

Weird chart, cave. It looks like some of my old ones, with that massive pronounced dip, then nothing. I think someone told me that it might indicate a progesterone deficiency in that cycle. But I might not be remembering right.

Northey · 20/04/2012 14:34

Shameless mememememe moment and plea for comfort. I just had a mock driving test and FAILED. Woe!

Going on jeans tightness, I should still be within half a stone of my pre-Christmas weight, which would bring me in at just under bmi 26. Fingers crossed.

CaveMum · 20/04/2012 14:01

Thanks all for confirming that my chart does indeed look nuts! I don't think my thermometer is broke, I bought it when I started the Clomid so it's only 5 months old!
Hmm, I shall wait it out for a week or so and then think about POASing if no droid. Thankfully I have no pee sticks in the house to tempt me Grin

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 20/04/2012 13:46

Yup these April showers are getting annoying!
Good luck with the old wait Shredni! I think I'm there now too, though my temp went up a bit this morning which confused me a bit!
Might be worth replacing your thermometer batteries Cavey?

lovesLemonDrizzleCake · 20/04/2012 13:45

Oh no about your not-quite-fanjo-cam experience shred! Yes, I did go back and found it, because I was to curious. When they do it right, it is MUCH better, I assure you.

Oh and progress: douze points for laundry done and dinner-with-friends over the weekend; minus zirteen for efforts on assignment and job application. Giving up on the latter (no clear deadline= fatal) and focussing on the former. So will be back SOON :)

lovesLemonDrizzleCake · 20/04/2012 13:35

Still unmedicated (except for the trigger) and two reasonable follies in the right ovary. Neither big enough yet and one with a 1-2mm advantage. The lady could not tell whether both of them would be ready or just the bigger one. I scared the hell out of SB with a quick mention of twins :)

I just found my logging in stuff for FF and my charts were odd too (not much temp differences, but crosshairs at roughly the right time. No point now, as a) I don't temp, b) the big O-date is known (you get an override option when you enter a trigger shot) and c) it scares me more than the fun and games at the clinic (which does not bother me, apart from the will they won't they about eggs and follies etc).

Getting a new thermometer would also be my first port of call with your chart, cavey. And where is you Beshtionaire shred, I must go and look back.

Btw when is spring coming back? Sick and tired and cold and rain now!!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 20/04/2012 13:32

Yes I agree, weird chart! A couple of dips that could have been pre-ovulation dips but not peak that could pinpoint your ovulation. Sorry cavey.
I am 100% certain I will be seen. Last time we went to see a comedian, well comedienne, it was Sarah Millican, I saw at least 6 people we knew! Exciting stuff doesn't happen often in our little city so people make the most of it! Also, almost everyone I know from work is going out for someone's leaving do and they won't be far from the theatre. I would be seen! I think I'm going to push MSB to go anyway. He needs a good night out!
I'm optimistic you'll be ok Norf, when did you last weigh yourself? I dread to think what I weigh now with the lack of exercise and excess chocolate. Trying not to think about it and know it'll come off when I'm well enough to exercise again!

eurochick · 20/04/2012 13:23

lemons are you medicated? Good luck!

Cavey that works but is bloomin' odd!

OP posts:
ShredniVashtar · 20/04/2012 13:19

Flipping heck cave that's an odd one! Assume you've checked that you thermometer isn't worn out broken?

Good news about the dildocam lemon . I have bad bad memories of the only time I've ever had one (cf beshtionnaire) but glad it was all ok.

Well we did der sechs and will do so again tonight, though cm has dried up again so I'll be using the age old fertility method of crossing my fingers!
