The BESH Eurovision Song Contest eva

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.

Hurrah for your follicle! Very well done. Your womb lining reminds me that mine has thickened too, which is a good sign.

eurochick · 11/05/2012 12:40

Fanks.

I'm sure KFZK will be grateful for that.

The worst thing about IUI is that it is very, er, frustrating. I have mega pre-ov horn now and we have to abstain for a couple of days so the IUI sample is in good shape. Thank F* for rabbits!

Shock

I must say, AMNH is getting a bit fed up of my texts reminding him not to fill the lonely hours of my absence by sitting around and, umm. diminishing his sperm quality.

KatAndKit · 11/05/2012 12:58

euro that is frustrating. Can't win really - enforced sechsing is a passion killer and enforced abstinence is frustrating! Remember when sechs was fun?

norf that sucks about the follicles but glad there are some good signs all the same.

sinkingflameofhilarity · 11/05/2012 13:05

Salut BESHes.

High five to caves womanly bits. Cinq point for northy lining (lazy follicle? It it just slow to ripen?)

Northey · 11/05/2012 13:35

Ah, crap, hilarity. What a pile of poo. And the doctor that said "relax" quite frankly deserves a swatting with a freshly used dildocam. How soon can you get a GP appointment?

sinkingflameofhilarity · 11/05/2012 14:28

Fanks. Got one Monday.

ShredniVashtar · 11/05/2012 19:39

Hola BESH! I iz a tit bipsy. I recommend it!

Hope GP appt is good, sinky. And sending a speshul pep talk to northey's follicles. C'mon guys!

sinkingflameofhilarity · 11/05/2012 19:52

shred, I can't even begin to tell you how envious I am. Just about to go and start a night shift. Not sure pre work drinking is the best idea... But I really really want a glass of wine!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 11/05/2012 22:16

Always tempting sinky, but not wise...you have sympathy. I hated nights, especially on the weekend. I hope you have some goodies to take with you. Just think of your nice warm bed when you get home in the morning. I'm sorry you're having such a confuddling time with the ivf service. It does seem logical that they sort it out but I guess therein lies the mystery of the NHS, anything but logical!
shreddie sounds like you're having fun?! Since I've been ill I've not been drinking much. Put it like this, my family have been lapping me and I've had quite a few cokes! I've had a couple of ciders and am just about to crack open another but that will be it for me today. Any more and my pain seems to flare up!
I started my smiley POAS regime today. No :) yet but I expect I'll get a smile in the next few days. My charts usually show an average of cd13 for ovulation and I'm only 9 now. Have told MSB we need go crack on though, he agreed! Grin
Sorry about the follicles norf, sending growy thoughts your way!

eurochick · 12/05/2012 11:08

Morning ladies. I am still waiting for my surge. KFZK just gave my ovaries a Churchill-style pep talk. Hopefully that will do the trick later.

Is he going to try Lord Haw Haw next? There's a rich seam of fertility research waiting to be done here.

CaveMum · 12/05/2012 17:20

Afternoon all. Had a lovely birthday dinner last night with HWHNN who has now headed back to base for tomorrows flight Sad
We didnt manage the sechs so I'm hoping I don't lay my egg in the next few days. It is unlikely, earliest has been Day 14, which would be Wednesday, when he gets back.

I'm thinking droid is on the way anyway. Ive had off and on cramps today and a teeny bit of brown spotting this afternoon. If it is droid it would fit in with when I thought I ov'd, which means the clinic got it wrong and I've wasted a batch of Clomid tablets Hmm

So, tonight it is me, the cat, and I suspect several glasses of wine. I'm going to take myself off shopping tomorrow. I'm putting together a hamper for my best friend, full of lots of useful baby stuff like cotton wool, wipes, muslins, baby shampoo etc. I can see I'm going to spend a fortune on this baby already!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 12/05/2012 17:46

Love the pep talk euro. I do it to MSB's swimmers.
I'm glad you had a luffly burfday cavey but :( for HWHNN leaving and to possible droid visitation! If it was all one long cycle, what cycle day would you be?
Well I've got my first :) . Seriously, this is flipping awesome! I want smiley face everything, why have I put off using them before?! I've told MSB it's game on. oh we're back from holiday by the way. Quite good really, we weren't comfortable sechsing in the room next to my Dad! although we may have once or twice

Northey · 12/05/2012 17:52

Was it a good holiday? Apart from the need for suppressed sechsing... And how are you feeling more generally? You sound really perked up for having been away.

Gah about blasted maybe-droid, cave. It's so bloody complicated with wonky cycles :( By the way, your honeymoon sounds fab (just caught my eye on the other thread)

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 12/05/2012 18:03

It was a nice holiday. Felt really long. My Dad did play up a bit, he seemed to keep trying to stir! But managed a few short walks and got some sunshine. Dreading going back to the 'w' place but have realised this week only I can change the things I dislike. I might buy a Paul McKenna positive type book. Also our house is really near completion, light fittings in, fire in, doors replaced! Even though MSB has had some wobbles he was grinning when he looked round! I just can't wait to go home.
cavey the shopping sounds luffly. Make sure you treat yourself to something for you too!

CaveMum · 12/05/2012 18:14

If it was all one cycle, this would be day 54 Shock Cramps have gone away but I feel "off", if you know what I mean.

Thanks Norf, it was an amazing holiday Grin

CaveMum · 12/05/2012 22:23

[bottle of Wine later]

Oops, I've killed the fred Blush

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 12/05/2012 22:49

I fink peeps are just busy cavey. bugs is sunning herself Envy, moi?! I travelled home and have essentially been lolling on sofa since. Am full of cold :( Have retreated to bed with hot chocolate. Got cider but just didn't fancy it!
How did the Wine go down?

CaveMum · 12/05/2012 22:54

Too easily! along with 2 slices of carrot cake

eurochick · 12/05/2012 23:00

The pep talk was surprisingly effective. Who knew my ovaries needed to be told to fight them on the beaches to pop an egg, eh? Anyway, we are booked in for outsourcing at stupid o'clock tomorrow morning. Clearly the dr has lunch plans.

cavey it would be very annoying to have wasted the Clomid if you are right.

Faify the smiley faces are cool aren't they? I got mine this afternoon too. :)

I went shopping today and saw myself in changing room mirrors (we don't have any full length mirrors at home). Eugh, I look vile. I blame the Pred.

OP posts:
HaveALittleFaithBaby · 12/05/2012 23:00

Mmm I miss carrot cake

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 12/05/2012 23:07

X-posts euro but yes, best thing since ttc sliced bread!
All the best for the morning's outsourcing. Tell his swimmers to go UP!
I am mizz with my appearance currently. Too many sweets and lack of exercise make Faith a bloated fatty! Health kick resumes Monday. Back to work, less opportunity to snack, well enough to exercise! Got a ball in 4 weeks and I want to look as good as I can!

CaveMum · 12/05/2012 23:07

Evidently I have had too much Wine to notice!

Yay for Smile faces for you both.

CaveMum · 13/05/2012 06:45

[sigh]

I was right. Droid is here. Bloody clinic and their, I quote, "infallible" blood tests Angry. I should have listened to my body, droid is exactly on time for when I thought I has ovulated, but the bloody nurse said it was impossible Angry

[insert string of expletives of your choice]

I'll have to leave a message on the clinic answer phone and hope someone calls me tomorrow and that they can sort me out with an emergency prescription because I have no Clomid left.

I suppose, on the upside, at least there is no chance of me ov-ing while HWHNN is away.

Hope everyone else's day gets off to a better start!
