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.

Yup Norf, it's clomid or bust! not that the damned drug as done me much good

Managed run. Now trying to haul my arse out to town. Can't really be arsed. Sigh. Ghj away on stag. I'm lonely.

There's not a what a loser emoticon, but there should be.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 14/04/2012 12:39

Woo Kat is a Mummy :) that's awesome. Douze points!
Oooh more fresh meat! Bonjourno shredders. If you've been lurking since Kat got her bfp you've been around even longer than me! Sounds like you'll fit right in.
Intros to be newbies: I'm faith though I had a name change to phoenixfromtheflames so sometimes I still get called phee Been ttc 26 months, about 30 cycles I think lost count. Rare male fertility ishoos - Mr Faith, aka MSB - Mr Squidgy Baybee was found to have a teeny growth on his pituitary gland causing high prolactin levels, which decreases testosterone levels which in turn causes slow swimmers but not til I'd had.bloods, Hsg and fanjo cam to check my plumbing is ok . Started treatment at Christmas so we should be in normal realms by now. So 80% chance of conceiving within a year.
Norf now remember your mantra for next week: I'm not leaving without the clomid!

lovesLemonDrizzleCake · 14/04/2012 11:51

Oh and woop-die-doo (ripping off of clothes and cheesy dancing for kat) CONGRATULATIONS.

Btw dot, still diffed? I know you're lurking!

lovesLemonDrizzleCake · 14/04/2012 11:50

Morning contenders, I am all ready with scoring cards (and the assignment-to-do)

Welcome shred. Two newbies - I am an old hand now :)

And insensitive as it may be, I agree with you sink and I am dedicating my rubbish paper to norf for effort. I am lemon and been trying for a measly Wink 22 months to win a baybee. The only thing that gets diffed is our fridge and we are unexplained and outsourcing (like euro, second iui this cycle).

sinkingflameofhilarity · 14/04/2012 11:42

salamlamaq shred (google translate tells me that's welcome in azerbaijani)

Sorry to say, but you sound like you'll fit perfectly here. Having said, there is a mini run of diffedness of late, so this could be the Fred to get in on. Just sayin'..

I'm sinky/flamey, 31. TTC for >24months (stopped counting- don't make me. ). PCOS, no natural cycles. I'm post ov drilling, just finished cycle 7 of 9 clomid and have a appt on may for the 'IVF chat'. Again, . GHJ is the other half. He's sickeningly healthy with an alarmingly high swimmer count.

Northy, bloody hell, this might be a v insensitive thing to say, but I hadn't realised how long you've been on this shitty bandwagon. I shall dedicate my out of tune entry, sung in Portuguese, with dubious ice skating backing dancers in your honour.

And, kat (although I joined the BESH after she left...) - yay! Do BESH births get twirled nipple tassels, or do we break out the big guns?

Northey · 14/04/2012 11:36

Next week. Not last week.

Northey · 14/04/2012 11:20

Hola, shred. As far as I can see, the verdict from the judges from the BESHerlands seems to be dix points, so draw up a chair.

I'm northey, 34 in the next few weeks, unprotected sechs for 7 years, trying for, oh I can't remember, two or three years, in which time I've only managed about four droids. And one ectopic proto-baybee, which got hacked out avec tube last year. Hopefully being prescribed Clomid last week (cue mucho ranting about the stupidity and meanness of doctors for not giving it to me before EVEN THOUGH THEY PROMISED).

ShredniVashtar · 14/04/2012 10:18

Fanx for the welcome. Shred is fine by me: am sure I'll be sharing tmi in no time :-)

I'm 31, ttc for 16 months now. In that time have had one early mc (in June) and one ectopic ( just before Christmas) so am now minus one tube. Other half is having SA soon to see if there are any ishoos and I'm resisting the urge to go and weep at my doctor until she refers me or summat.

CaveMum · 14/04/2012 10:10

More fresh meat?! Welcome Shred (do you mind if I call you Shred? It is a tad over familiar seeing as we've only just met!) Your BESHtionnaire looks good to me, tell us a bit more about yourself.

Oh, and we're going to have to ask all newbies to put together a Eurovision-style dance routine for our amusement approval Wink

For the record, I am Cavemum, 30 nearly 31 years old. Technically TTC since June 2010, but due to PCOS only had 8 cycles of trying in that time. Currently on cycle 5 (out of 6) on Clomid.
My husband, also known as HWHNN, is in the RAF so lives away from home during the week, which means sechs takes a lot of logistical planning!

In Egg news - still nothing, nada, not a sausage. Day farking 26 Sad

Guten tag, BESH! I humbly present my BESHtionnaire for your approval:

  1. Do you like gin? yes. Back on the gin now after months of abstaining in hopes it would win me a baybe < deluded>

  2. Men - are you a gold digger or a cradle snatching cougar?
    Gold digger.

  3. Baybee-making - to put a baybee in your tumtum, which hole do you use:
    a) weewee
    b) poopoo
    c) foofoo
    d) none, you just pray to the baby Jebus.

c. Though the sonographer got so flustered during emergency dildo cam that she went for b until I yelped gently corrected her...

  1. Testing - when someone wonders if they should test for updiff (pg), do you: a) bellow 'POAS!' at them non-stop and punch them repeatedly in the kidneys till they wet themselves anyway. b) Sprinkle them with babydust and send them hugs and kisses on lickle baby angel wings.

a

  1. Is R2D2: a) an adorable robot from Star Wars. b) the source of all evil.

B

  1. Number of pets? None.

  4. What are your views on camping?
    Only to be tolerated for one night at a time, and only if I can bring a air bed and feather duvet.

  5. How much money have you spent on sticks you then urinate on?
    i) Oh nothing, I'll probably catch first time and then get the doctor to confirm it.
    ii) Over 100 quid
    iii) I opened an account on ebay solely for the purpose of purchasing sticks

iii. I now cannot go on Amazon at work because all its recommendations are for pee sticks and TCOYF

Finally, tell us how you found the BESH and why you'd like to join us pliz.

I've lurked since Kat got her bfp so seems only fitting that I should join now! I think you peoples may be my kinda peoples.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 14/04/2012 08:54

Good luck flamey!
Tres amusing euro Grin
Gah, my friend is coming over in half an hour and I'm still in bed...gonna make it 10!

sinkingflameofhilarity · 14/04/2012 08:49

Bonjour mes amies.

Euro great Wogan quotes. What a man.

Off for a run. First in a week. Wish me luck.

Northey · 14/04/2012 00:42

:o euro

eurochick · 13/04/2012 23:14

I just posted this on another thread but it is amusing me so I thought it was worth repeating sharing here.

We were discussing earlier after what was probably our last swi for this cycle (cos we need to make sure that KFZK has something left in the tank for the procedure) that IUI is the ultimate in outsourcing - "I can't be bothered to spaff in my wife. Here's the goods. Plz deal,"

Back on the theme with a couple of Wogan gems:

?There's not enough silliness in the world. Eurovision helps to keep it balanced.?
Terry Wogan, BBC.

Who knows what hellish future lies ahead? ? Actually, I do. I've seen the rehearsals," - opening remark for the 2007 show in Finland.

"That's the same song the French have been singing since they hung the washing up on the Maginot Line,"

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 13/04/2012 19:15

How old iz you pliz winkers? That impacts on the length of time trying to win a baybee but don't worry I think you're in
I don't judge your dinner northus, I would have added some cheese to the top to be fair. I've just scoffed a gluten free pizza whilst watching Big Bang myself. Yum!
and er yes it worked a treat Wink

eurochick · 13/04/2012 19:02

Norfy, men just don't GET it do they. Meh.

KFZK has a mancold but is going to get jumped anyway. So I should probably leave work and get on with it!

Nice shoehorning, sinking

Dor do stick around and judge us score from the sidelines!

FriendofDorothy · 13/04/2012 18:55

Just go for the nipple tassels faithy.

Have just found out that my cousins' wife is expecting too. Still finding it oddness.

sinkingflameofhilarity · 13/04/2012 18:33

Bon soir mes amies, je suis tres joyeux a la fred nouveux! Le topic est excellent, felicitations Euro

All I'm going to say is I'm v glad it's the weekend, ooh, agh, just a littlebit. (was that shoehorned in ok?)

Welcome winkly, already this Fred is a better new blood lure than the prev. I blame those foul mouthed parrots (but I do miss, er... Bob). Personally, I always preferred the second in command to jl Picard. Even with the dubious facial hair.

Northey, nil points the AMNH. Poor form. GHJ's off on a stag doo, but think ov has come and gone so I'm just abandoned, rather than Angry

What's weekend plans for all? I'm getting my hair dyed. about bloody time When's the next kidney poking/menkulling dueto start?

Winkly · 13/04/2012 17:59

Maybe I have not been trying to win a baybee for long enough to be here as it has only been 6 months. Got married 2 and a half years ago and waiting Til The Time Was Right, as Johnny Logan sang in 1980 "what's another year" - well the two years waiting were a Mistake, and most of my family now think I am a child-hater or barren or just a selfish caaah and have given up on my uterus.

If I am not being kicked off I will say that I would be Angry too Northey, and that greeting a man in undies with a beer sounds like Just Enough.

I am willing to answer any and all questions raised by my BESHtionairre! What boggling is there to be done? JL is a plummy voiced prince of a man!

Northey · 13/04/2012 17:55

Undies and beer? I'd do you.

Northey · 13/04/2012 17:54

I was extremely Angry , faith. Simmering down a bit now after putting an early dinner of garlic bread and chips (dont even think of judging me) and settling down for the Big Bang Theory. Soft Kitty makes everything better.

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 13/04/2012 17:17

I would be a tad Angry in your position Northey. I think it's nearly sechsing time so I am contemplating greeting MSB in my undies with a beer tonight - too much?!

Northey · 13/04/2012 16:49

Allison Janney. She is epicmazing, faif.

AMNH will not now be stopping in to diff me, because he has fannied about all morning and missed his train and therefore will be late for his party if he pauses further for sechs on route. Right. Nice to know that this whole doomed baybee project is lower in his priorities than one extra hour at a party that will probably last seven.
