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!

Oh bugs you poor thing. Absolutely gutted for you that you're having to go through all this. Really hoping that this somehow turns out to just be a slow start... Thinking of you

Evening ESH! Sorry been so AWOL this last week or so. Combination of crazy busy work and trying to hump my way through week 2 of my cycle means there never seems to be any time! Think I'm gearing up to OV in the next 2-3 days. Can you believe I'm starting to feel nervous about BFN and I've not even bloody OV'd yet. Definitely not good.

euro glad you're feeling more positive after taking control sweety. Even if it just ends up being a break for a while. It must be right thing if you feel so much better.

Hope everyone else bearing up ok.

HaveALittleFaith · 03/07/2012 20:50

I'm a bit late posting this evening due to cleaning the carpets at the rented house (major ew) and getting a smear after a reality nudge from euro's circumstances Which I have come to realise is far less painful when you're having the sechs - disadvantage to being in the 'smear at 21+ generation' along with with waiting til you get married Hmm

bugs I guess while there's a heartbeat there you will hold on to hope. I think you need to bear what they said in mind and just take each minute day at a time.

[gives bugs a very un-MN squeeze] Keeping you in my thoughts.

Well, Droid has finally fucked off so I can get back to jumping CGH at every opportunity. Going for every day this time round (yeah, we'll see how long it lasts!!) and taking EPO for more CM!

lovesLemonDrizzleCake · 04/07/2012 10:12

So sorry bugs that is rubbish news. Keeping everything crossed for growth spurts and thinking of you!

Respect for everyday sechsing al, we used to do that. But TTC has taken the fun out of it all. And now if we want to SFF (sechs for fun) I need to locate the (nearly?) out of date condoms... Cannot be bothered.

Faif well done for getting your smear done. But (as I was a virgin at 21 too) you don't need smears until you start sechsing. So even when I was sechsing I denied for a while so I got out of it, until I presented with a suspected STI (was nothing) and I had to fess up Wink. Well done for clean carpets as well.

Still busy here and MN keeps kicking me out :(

eurochick · 04/07/2012 10:35

ARGH. Stoppid MN just crashed and lost my post. Dammit. Will post again later.

HaveALittleFaith · 04/07/2012 10:51

Ah yes but DMum made me go saying even nuns get cervical cancer Confused so I went.

We only managed every day sechsing one cycle. Quite telling really. MSB has recently done his jiap - oh the difference! Being told not to have the sechs has made him want it more! Grin I have high hopes for the results this time...

FriendofDorothy · 04/07/2012 11:02

Lemons is right Faif - no need for a smear until you are sexually active. I never got one done until about 3 years ago for exactly that reason. I was a Good Little Evangelical for many years until I saw the light and started shagging like a bunny.

HaveALittleFaith · 04/07/2012 12:35

Grin dory! Yes 3 presumably unnecessary rather painful smears in my early 20s, more tolerable now though they have changed technique too which helps!

I recall my sister saying I think when you get started they'll be no stopping you .... I think she was right! Wink

alwyn · 04/07/2012 17:47

I'm hoping one cycle is all it takes and then I can deny him again :)

HaveALittleFaith · 04/07/2012 18:27

Just one cycle of daily sechsing.....
Ah, I remember those days Wink

Just watching the tennis while dinner cooks. Come on Andy!

CamelKnees · 04/07/2012 18:53

Oh god. I'm definitely too tired for daily sechs. Good luck Alwyn!

Is it some sort of cosmic joke that I get such bad cramping at OV that it actually makes the sechs quite uncomfortable? Also boobies are enormous and super sore. Mother nature is a sadist cow.

Northey · 04/07/2012 19:54

Muggy London days + Clomid hot flushes = a nuclear combination.

eurochick · 04/07/2012 20:11

I get really bloated, Camel which can make the sechsing uncomfortable. Agree - mother nature is indeed a sadistic cow.

Northey I'm still getting a few hot flushes as an after effect of the evil downregging drugs. My cardigan has been on and off more times than something that goes on and off a lot today.

I went into the loo and partly undressed today! The cold tiles against my back were blissful. Are the effects receding a bit otherwise?

CamelKnees · 04/07/2012 20:16

Oh bugs I'm devastated for you Sad. I have nothing wise or insightful to say but I'll be thinking of you and am sending some very unBESHlike cyber ((((((((hugs)))))))). Take care of yourself x

Northey · 04/07/2012 20:18

Ah feck, bugs. I was secretly praying for a miracle next week for you. I'm so sorry. You probably (sadly) know how it goes this time, but there is a helpful thread in Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss with tips for coping with the practicalities :(

CamelKnees · 04/07/2012 20:18

northy the thought you half nekid in a work toilet cubicle is hilarious. More so because I can imagine doing it in about 2 weeks when I'm as hot as the sun at the end of my cycle Grin

CamelKnees · 04/07/2012 20:19

And yes euro I currently look 4 months diffed due to OV bloating -WTF?

HaveALittleFaith · 04/07/2012 20:29

I'm so sorry bugs. Thinking of you insufficient words

HaveALittleFaith · 04/07/2012 21:22

Oh no another FB pregnancy announcement. Twins this time. I suspect a hard fought win but still :(

queenrollo · 04/07/2012 21:24

bugs I don't really know what to say, except that I am sorry and am thinking of you x

FriendofDorothy · 04/07/2012 21:37

Oh bugs, I'm so sorry :(

blonderthanred · 04/07/2012 21:39

So sorry Bugs.

CaveMum · 04/07/2012 22:01

Bugs I am so so sorry Sad
