The BESH Eurovision Song Contest eva

Good sechsing cavey, let's hope you lay tomorrow so the timing is right. Definitely call the clinic - it's a waste of everyone's time to do blood tests when you're confident you've not ovulated yet!
Shred good effort in the garden. Definitely worth the effort/reward isn't it? You deserve the chocolate.
Well before I got ill I was reading Winter Solstice so I should try to finish that first!
I'm cd11 and should ov soon. Not easy with not being well but will have a crack at this month!

Excellent seching efforts cavey. My clinic were fine when I just turned up for my day 21 bloods on day 28. Also, I don't get monitored on each cycle, but also they don't mind when I just ring and ask for an extra blood (quite rightly, give others seem to get monthly uss and bloods etc)

Glad you've had a tears free day, Cave, and good work with the shagging! Am on CD 6 here so commencing operation sechs fest soon.

Today I am feeling quite proud of doing some gardening and justified in eating remaining Easter chocolate while watching Homeland.

Do you have any good books lined up, Faith?

Evening BESH, how are we all this evening?

Today I consider progress - no tears!

In EggWatch news, CBFM has now downgraded me to 1 bar again, but I'm sure the second line on the cheapy OPK was darker today, compared to yesterday's. However we have diligently done the sechs and HWHNN has decided he will stay to it and head back early tomorrow morning. That means an early session tomorrow!

Going to phone the clinic again tomorrow to find out what I should do re blood tests. Technically I should be having another one tomorrow, but again I don't see much point when I know I haven't ovulated. Don't want to piss them off though!

er I don't know meself
That's luffly pone about little foal although sympathies for the lack of sleep. You do sound like a busy bee! Sounds like things are generally quite good though.
I think I need to watch less day time tv this week and read more. Cunning plan.

Hey, a mention from old-time BESH! < proud>

What is all this about carrying cakes? I've made some heavy fruit cakes in my time but I dont think any of them would, y'know, cause a nasty strain [ confused]. Pliz to explain?

I've seen every episode of Thomas though. :(

Hellooooooz, life is good - I'm all in a spin trying to fit it all in. Trying to set up new business, got a new riding instructor, went skiing with browncups on Friday, going to the seaside this week viz see boys. Bizzee! The foal is a cutie-pie waging a one-baybee war upon sleep and frankly he's kicking its arse.

euro is right, read books whilst you have the chance, watch DVD's. In the last month I've not even completed a Marion keyes, fell asleep for the last 20 minutes of The Wire (second series), fallen asleep during the girl who kicked the hornet's nest and the first episode of the killing.

pone! Long time no see! How's the foal?!
I really didn't luff Transformers though actually it wasn't quite as bad as I remembered and MSB insists it's the worst of the three which implies he'll make me watch the other two! Yup Coyote Ugly is awful but I feel it falls into the cheesy chick flick genre that I'm entitled to watch since my brain is turning to mush. Also Adam Garcia gets shirtless in it and he is hot!
ashamed to confess I've never seen the Rocky films but it's on our list of things to watch. I'd never seen the Die Hard quadrilogy which MSB soon corrected! I actually didn't expect to enjoy them but I luffed them!

Humm, we could have a stonking BESH film punch up debate.

Transformers and coyote ugly both trash (but not unpleasantly brain numbing).

I raise you both Rocky I through IV. And Rocky Balboa.

And if that doesn't float your boat, Kickass...

I'm sorry faith but I can't let this go - you slate Transformers (which is great aside shia and Megan), yet you'll voluntarily watch coyote ugly, possibly the worst film ever made? Egads!

PS shred welcome and fear not, you can eat blue cheese. You're just not allowed to carry cakes.

I think you might be over thinking that film faithy..

I've just picked up ghj from the airport, and am now watching reruns of man v food. Quality tv.

Toying with the idea of going out for some food later. May have to, cupboards as bear as mother Hubbard. slovenly wife

I think lulls just happen sometimes! What you up to flamey?
I'm watching Coyote Ugly. The cynical part of me wonders how on earth anyone gets served if they're always dancing on the bar?!

Phew. Thought I'd broken fred

V quiet.

Quiet in here today!
I've had a super lazy morning. Somehow we ended up staying up quite late watching Transformers which I didn't think was good the first time! and I woke today feeling like crap with a bad head. I'm fed up of feeling ill. I'm sure you're fed up of hearing about it!
MSB has gone off on a cycle ride, despite the variable weather, which is good cos it'll blow off some steam.

God morgen BESH.

My pill usage in the 12-18 months pre 'TTC' was pitiful. Take a week. Miss a few. I'd often have a pill free month rather than week. Can't imagine any effective contraception other than my shitty ovaries happening around then. But that would have me at 4 yrs TTC. And that's not something I can deal with..

Bit tired this morning after staying up to watch rocky IV. which i have on DVD

Yes progesterone only pill. Combined wasn't an option because I get migraines.
I get what you mean northey. If you'd officially been ttc, you'd have recognised and raised the problem sooner yes? Whereas while I came off the pill to try for a baybee, not all the cycles really count since some were so fraught we didn't actually dtd much at all. Lack of frequency was a cause of rows. I did when our GP asked how long we'd been actively ttc and explained people are vague. He'd had one couple who said they been ttc for 2 years but the DH had been posted abroad for 18 months of that period in total!

Progesterone only pill. I think.

I just wish I'd counted all the previous years of contraceptionless sex as actual trying and therefore evidence of a problem. I could have gone to the doctor years earlier and even if nothing had worked out of the same list of treatment at least I would be in the same position as now but with more youth on my side.

If that sounds incomprehensible it is because I am channelling a foreign eurovision contestant. Not because I actually am incomprehensible.

That is :( euro.
We were a bit paranoid I'd fall pregnant when it wasn't convenient ha When we got married we were in a small flat, .1st floor, no lifts. We could have had a baybee there but it would have been a nightmare. We were cramped anyway. So i religiously took the POP, only missed two in two years. Had a couple of times when I thought I might be diffed, feeling queasy and light headed but obviously not. I didn't have proper droids on the POP just a touch of spotting so I tested about once a month to be sure. In retrospect, I think MSB had the ishoos from before we got married, we just didn't realise. In some ways, I think we should just have never used contraception but we had no idea we'd have ttc ishoos and we didn't want a baybee straight after we got wed, especially since we hadn't had the sechs before we got we'd. Having dnephew around gave MSB confidence that he'd be a good Dad :)

Being able to go to bed for the sechs whenever you fancy. Actually, just going to bed when you fancy. MSB and I still revel in that.
