TTC on the frontier of polite society . Shoot outs compulsory.

New joiners will be welcomed after completing the Beshtionnaire and showing us their blazing saddle.

northey yes, it's a trick question - camping should be nice, but experience has taught us that pregnancy and camping are incompatible. In fact I think all travelling is - at Denver airport I bought a copy of 'wtewye', by the time I'd changed planes in Minneapolis I was with Droid and sobbed most of the way through the red eye.

phoenix I'm fine, Knackered obviously, but fine. Hanging up my besh shoes because I'm shit at getting pregnant, staying pregnant, being pregnant and laying baybees. Ah well, in the next life I shall disobey my father and start at 14.

KatAndKit · 07/03/2012 17:38

pone you are far from shit - you have conceived, grown and laid two luffly baybees.

I'm delighted to hear you are fine if knackered pone. I concur that it is always nice to see BESH graduates to remind us that it happens. Not to diminish your ttc journey but you are preggers and will have a luffly baybee at the end of this process. If that's the end of your baybee making, fair play to you. I always, always wanted two but I'm really seriously thinking one would be enough after the last two years. It depends hw long it takes me to get diffed now the issues have been resolved.
Yes indeed camping with droid is the worst. We're meant to be camping for the Olympics in August. If by some miracle I am diffed, I am not sleeping on a blow up bed in the awning again!

PhoenixFromTheFlames · 07/03/2012 18:47

or am I being thick and forgetting that you laid your baybee?

eurochick · 07/03/2012 18:48

Pone it's good to see you back here.

fee I'm the same. As an only myself, I always thought it would be nice if I could have two because an only childhood can be lonely. At this point I figure if I manage to have one, I might just make sure it has lots of friends and a dog or something.

Droid just arrived. (That was me twatting the metal fvker, btw). Obviously telepathic colleague brought be a large bag of kiddie sweets about 10 mins later. Am now on a sugar high. fvk low GI.

KatAndKit · 07/03/2012 18:49

Yeah, she laid her baybee about three weeks ago.

I knew that....we threw kippers and stuff.
Commiserations euro my luffly. Thank goodness for the wise colleague. She must have seen your lack of iron sweets of course offer the iron you lose from the droid Feel free to wallow for a bit.
bugs futility fiend sez Sunday, based on last three cycles I'd expect it to be Satruday. Have a FRER at home and return Friday so will be poas at the weekend at some point.....

I like camping too, dot. Anyway, we can't be proper cowboys without camp out things. Where the buffalo roam. On the prairies. Or whatever. Possibly by a billabong.

I luff camping. But I cheat a bit because my.family has a camper van.
Will do bugs. I'd highly recommend it!

eurochick · 07/03/2012 22:22

Bugs next stop IVF. We start on day 21 of the next cycle. That's three weeks today then. Eek. I still hate the idea. I just need to do the mental equivalent of sticking my fingers in my ears and shouting "LALALALALA" really loudly so I don't think about it too much.

Dor I don't do camping. Holidays for me are about staying somewhere that is nicer than my everyday life - so I want flunkies to clear up after me and bring me stuff, bigger beds than my bedroom can take and nice things to look at. Although, I will be spending 3 days in the jungle soon. I am bricking it about the spiders. We're not camping, but how airtight is a jungle lodge going to be?

Northey · 08/03/2012 06:43

Morning. Awful night's sleep last night. Insomnia for a symptom, anyone?

[prods Norfs kidneys, just in case like]

FF is telling me I ovulated on Sunday, right in the middle of our sechsy weekend, so everything is now crossed. I've checked my stats and my luteal phase is always 15 days which means droid is due 19th March.
My Day 21 bloodtest is due over the weekend so I think I'll go tomorrow rather than wait till Monday.

Northey · 08/03/2012 07:09

Fingers crossed for you! You couldn't have timed it better, and ffs it's your turn.

OP posts:
Northey · 08/03/2012 07:10

Obviously it's also the turn of every other BESH. I meant out of people in the world, not out of those on this fred.

sinkingflameofhilarity · 08/03/2012 07:27

you folk havin' fun without me?

northey, I get the insomnia for a few days post ov for the last few cycles. Now 4dpo and ker-nackered.

cave I'll join you on the wait. I'm due 20th. But less well timed sech here however. Tired ghj not helped by me asking every night morning, evening if he wants to "jump on". Hummmm.

sinkingflameofhilarity · 08/03/2012 07:36

Oh, and Drizzle

And Euro can I offer you a manly cowboy shoulder pat? Am in denial about the whole thing. I was ment to be starting in April, but my massively long cycles mean I still have 3 lots of clomid to work through. Not entirely sure that's a good thing though.

Northey · 08/03/2012 07:47

Oh bum, in that case I should have made more effort to have sechs yesterday and the day before. Maybe Monday will have been enough. Hmm.

OP posts:
PhoenixFromTheFlames · 08/03/2012 07:57

I will join the insomnia section of the BESH. Took me forever to fall asleep then I dreamt the world was ending maybe cos we watched Independence day and all I was bothered about was that I hadn't won a baybee begin it happened!
euro I understand why you're lalalalala . It's a big thing to psych yourself up for.
cavey I actually think if you ovulated Sunday you'd get a better 'cd21' result Monday when you'd be 8 days after rather than 5 but obviously it's up to you!
It really is our turn Northey, all of us...

CaveMum · 08/03/2012 08:12

Phee I know what you mean, but my current rational is that I'll get the results back sooner if I have the test tomorrow Grin
