Welcome to the 2.30 from Mumsnet Towers. The fillies have been groomed to within an inch of their lives and are raring to go.

Late entries for the race are required to locate and fill in the BESHtionnaire so that their form can be assessed.

Bring on the stallions!

I am 18 weeks pregnant. BMI of 36 (to nicely match my age!) before I got diffed.

X posts kicster I wouldn't haven't invited you unless I thought you were ESH material! You are clearly bitter and twisted Wink with a wicked sense of humour. Plus you have not had an easy ride!
Some have not been so long.... alwyn is early days is she not?

KickTheGuru · 18/07/2012 13:30

faith

My BMI is about 27 or 28 so I need to lose a bit extra as well Blush

KickTheGuru · 18/07/2012 13:29

FriendofDorothy - how long have you been diffed for and CONGRATS by the way. Grin

I am happy here. Not filled with chippy people falling pregnant every month (not that I hope we don't fall pregnant every month but there you go).

I worked out that I may be able to start TTC again at the end of August. That's next month. It's very fucking close! dances (With vodka)

HaveALittleFaith · 18/07/2012 13:27

X posts cavey.
Ok, I'm known as faith (amongst many other names). Started TTC December 2009 - had been on pill to that point so no period of lapse contraception. I see it as such: one year futile sesching, one year of routine investigations. Main ishoo found to be swimmers going in circles due to a pituitary growth in OH - aka Mr Squidgy Baybee (MSB). Last six months waiting for that to come back to normal post treatment while I get ill. Next 6 months - project BMI baybee - me to lose even weight to get BMI under 30, see if that works for natural conception or get on IVF waiting list.

That is good news cavey! Will it mean less trips to lands afar?

KickTheGuru · 18/07/2012 13:26

Loving the bios. Allergy to sperm is fixable isn't it??? Easily fixable in fact (I thought?)

Rock in the English Channel sounds bloody brilliant!

I feel like a fraud with my measly year. :(

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 18/07/2012 13:24

If we're talking one upmanship, ok go ahead. Who's the most barren BESH?

My name is Ariel. I used to be called Aries. I used to come in here a lot, then freaked out as I realised how long it was taking and ran off in a sulk . Two and a half years in and no baybee. No discernable reason for that so far. I will be those women who is allergic to their man's sperm, you mark my words.

FriendofDorothy · 18/07/2012 13:23

No Ariel this is number 1....

Ok, here's my bio...

I am FriendofDorothy. Here under sufference as I am diffed. Took 20 cycles and one HSG and a few Clomid tablets to manage it, but I feel like I am one of the lucky ones. Apart from 3 weeks of bleeding early in the pregnancy I feel ok. No puking for me, just eating cake. The Mister is my lovely husband who is mega tolerant and we currently live with my parents on a rock in the middle of the English Channel. We are trying to buy a house. It's going badly, very badly!

HaveALittleFaith · 18/07/2012 13:20

Blimey they're all coming out of the woodwork now if only for one-upmanship
y viva Espana Boo!

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 18/07/2012 13:18

THIRTY SEVEN DOR I'M THIRTY SEVEN!!! Had you been diffed before this present one? please say no

MadameBoolala · 18/07/2012 13:16
MadameBoolala · 18/07/2012 13:16

Oh screw the lot of you, I'm 40 next month.

FriendofDorothy · 18/07/2012 13:15

I am 36. There is still hope.

HaveALittleFaith · 18/07/2012 13:13

Yup. Looks like a dildo but sounds back pictures of your ovaries. Not horrendous, just a little uncomfortable.

Always nice to get a ray of sunshine! Are you saving the pennies at the moment?

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 18/07/2012 13:13

When I said "sympathy" I meant purely on the age thing of course. I have obviouly a lot of sympathy for fellow-barrens Grin

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 18/07/2012 13:09

Don't look at me for sympathy SunnyD. I will give you some empathy though. I have been in and around these parts - ok, so not much lately - since I was thirtyfuckingfour and now I am thirtyfuckingseven! 37! 37! 37! .

I wonder if John Barrowman could win me a baybee? I did shag him last night after all ok he's gay and it was in my dreams but still.

Sorry for thread creash. As you were.

InTheSunshine · 18/07/2012 12:58

Oh fuck. Reading this has made me realise I am going to be 36 soon. Thirty-fucking-six and no sign of winning a baybee.

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 18/07/2012 12:55

You know. When they shove a ultrasound thingy up your fanjo.

KickTheGuru · 18/07/2012 11:47

Ahem...

Splutters

Dildocam?!!! Oh DO explain!!!

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 18/07/2012 11:29

Thirty is no age Think yourself lucky, oh yes.

Dildocam was ok. MrA seemed to be able to see more than I could - he was fascinated.

KickTheGuru · 18/07/2012 09:41

Yep that Southern drawl. And those muccles. Noice!

We've been trying nearly a year. By the time we will be allowed to TTC again, it will probably be well over a year. I am pushing for them to put me on fertility drugs. I hope we have an octopus.

Glad I said R2D2 isn't adorable then. Stupid bane of all my troubles now.

I am 6 days late today. This is NOT a good thing. Even while my body was crashing, I managed being 3 days late and then having some R2D2 lovin'.

HaveALittleFaith · 18/07/2012 09:35

Mmm with that sexy Southern accent. Why we were only saying on Saturday at the wedding would you? about him. Mine was a definite yes!

I am liking your answers! I too have a thing for Sandra Bullock :) before your pancreas went Squiffy how long had you been trying to win a baybee for? When can you try again? (R2D2 is the 'droid' or what we call AF btw so it's bad. Supremely evil).

norf I will be asleep for the cystoscopy so I am not too bovvered. I'm so tired today - tried taking drowsy antihistamines. Hay fever is good. Sleepiness is baaaaaad. Will take a half tonight.

KickTheGuru · 18/07/2012 09:13
