Round up your ghosties and ghoulies and long legged beasties, the BESH are going to scare out the BFPs!

[sinkyroselee]

Its true, NGCECOAWT, so the BESH move on.

Join us in spooky October, for a different sort of Pagen fun. Sod the lentil weaving and organic bean bags, we're channelling pointy black hats, green tinged foundation and probably a bit of Harry Potter.

Join us for cursing of the insta-diffs, moments of pure love and the horrors of the cam of the fanjo - post the Beshtionnaire and the coven will judge you.

This is not a woo thread (TINAWT)

My courageous and clever pals.

What time is scan tomorrow fishyfaif?

Scan is 2.30. Job interview at 10.30

Busy day! Good luck.

I have drugs people! Just back from consultant appointment and they suggested Clomid 50mg for three months as my cycle is a bit all over the place, maybe extended to six if necessary. I'm going to be scanned with each cycle and I have to have my day 21/23 tests done as well to make sure ovulation does actually happened. They took some blood today but no dildo cam thank god, really wasn't in the mood for that. So.....that's me up until February at which point it will be a year from our first consultation appointment. Where does the time go.

Ariel sorry hubby is being a nob, can't you slap him with something? Then slap SIL with it too?

euro I've sent lots of fanny healing vibes your way..... hope you received them and that the medical went well.

Evil I have a mooncup. I just never quite got on with it for periods and when I suggested to MATV we use it to keep the sperm up there he laughed at me so it has never been done

Hi everyone else!

I do have sudocrem actually bugs if you need some. I have a sore fanjo. I'm suddenly suspicious of my easing liquid and tumble dryer sheets. Hope you feel better soon. Plenty of fluids!

good news raspberry! Let's hope it kick starts your egg releasing :)

washing liquid, no idea what easing liquid is?,

Clomid is great stuff for the fucked up cycle. I luffed it.

What is GP sad about, bugs?

Draf when it comes to taking it out, don't forget you need to break the seal. Or you will give yourself a DIY hysterectomy. Or something. I think almost everyone panics a bit the first time they have to get the thing out. My top tip: squat on your haunches, push a bit with your pelvic floor muscles and you should be able to reach it easily.

Thank you for all the fanny healing vibes ladies. I should get my health report with the smear result within two weeks. I also added in a thyroid test as an extra because I am a bit worried that the IVF messed things up (although my weight does seem to be mocing back towards an even keel now). I am really, really hoping that 4 months of exceedingly clean living and antioxident eating will have made a difference and they won't need to slice bits off my cervix. Bizarrely, I am the picture of health. Blood sugar normal, kidney and liver function good, cholesterol fine, etc. In fact my only black mark was for my core strength (which has always been sh1t - I'm very long bodied like my mum and her dad and we all have weak cores and lower backs) and hopefully the pilates will help that. But in all other ways apparently I am glowing with health! I had even improved since my last medical (although that was done straight after Xmas) in a number of areas despite being two years older. As I commented to the dr, unsuccessful ttcing is not good for stress levels but otherwise great for health! My alcohol intake is down, my diet is better, I'm exercising more, etc.

Norfy as always, the BESH give good advice.

Rie that sounds horrible. I'm so glad we have told the people we are close to. It stops them putting their foot in it almost all the time. Although a friend musing recently about family names dieing out was not welcome!

Good luck for scan faif. It will be amazing to see your baby on the screen.

raspberry hurrah for drucks. Even if they are not the really fun kind.

Easing liquid? Sounds, umm, specialised...

X-posts. Sorry to hear about the sore bum bugs. Better out than in. Just keep telling yourself that.

faif I think thrush is really common in pregnancy from the hormone changes. I've had it a few times BUT only ever on the Pill. I've been on the Pill for 18 months in total. Never had it in the other 34.5 years of my life. So I'm seeing a pretty obvious correlation there!

It's crap when you never see each other. You are not alone here in having a hard time with that. Not that that is much comfort.

Thanks chaps, I'm hoping it'll even me out although I'm not getting hopes up as I read loads of stories about people getting diffed easily after a lap & dye but no such luck for me. However, we are now determined to shag like the proverbial rabbits every other day from now until February to give it our best shot.

Sorry to hear things are shitty bugs, hope it's a fast passing phase. It's so friggin hard to fit all the necessary bits of life in all the time, nothing ever seems to give but you are definitely doing the right thing trying to get loads of nice stuff in.

northy easing liquid sounds VERY specialist I reckon faith is letting us know something a little too personal there although on a serious note, I can only really use persil or really cheap stuff or I come out in a rash faith so may very well be the easing liquid!
Used to get thrush terrible while I was on the pill to. I don't think I'll ever use contraception ever again! Probably won't need to either by the look of things :/

Chatty bunch aren't you?!

Rie, sod the kippers, etc for Mr Rie have a instead. He is a twit

Well done on the stabbing, fsr. How did you make yourself bleed? Is there a big artery in the stomach fat?

I have drafted the email in a separate document. I now just need to screw up the courage to open my email and paste it and send it. I have no idea how I have ended up so wussy about such a trivial thing

When I say "bleed" I mean there was a teeny tiny speck of blood after taking the needle out. Wasn't gushing Monty Python-Stylee

Send the bloody email woman! Don't make me come over there!

Frankel that tiny prick would be enough to send me into a tizz! I'm such a wimp

I have emailed work.

Well done norf. Have a bucket of prawns as your reward :)

Ouchy fsr. It will get easier!

Fanks. Good luck at scan.

It's pouring here.

Here too. I have dreamt about the interview all night! Irony is not sure I really want the job, just want it over with. Ah well, will keep me distracted.

It's always good practice to go through an interview every now and again.

I was vaguely wondering about trying a run this morning. Maybe not...

Only hardcore runners go out in the pouring rain! What about a swim? Is there a pool near you?

Yes good practice to be interviewed, however it's 'informal' so I'm not sure what to expect...I did it 5 times in my sleep! :)
