The femmes fatales of the BESH are lying back and thinking of England

As witches and pumpkins become old hat, the BESH are scrubbing up well in salute to James Bond in general and Skyfall in particular. Put on your slinky cocktail dresses and stiletto heels, grab a Martini, and start schmoozing with well-dressed secret agents.

Insta-diffs will be shot with a quip but without a qualm. Anyone else wanting to join can dodge a few bullets post the BESHtionnaire.

I'm not entirely sure how the fanjo injury happened. I have done it before. I think everything is just a little tight down there... I can't even blame KFZK as I was in control of the session when the injury occurred....

Norfy you are sounding so much better. :) I guess you just have to click with the counsellor. I have only ever had one counselling sesh - the one I had in the middle of my IVF drug induced lunacy. I didn't find it that session, save for it forced me to articlulate my fears and the things I didn't like about the process and that consolidated our decision to go for natural/mild next time.

faif how awesome to hear the heartbeat!

I found that with counselling the first two sessions feel like dragging up stuff you don't want to talk about, the next few sessions are constructive and you move forward. I would encourage anyone having counselling to go to at least three. norf your doc sounds ace! Enjoy the walk.

I am trying to clean but doing one of those flitting round the house not really actually achieving anything whirl winds! :)

EuroShagmore · 07/11/2012 13:27

session=helpful. I really should proof my posts.

Northey · 07/11/2012 14:50

Arghh!! Just phoned up to check that the fax of AMNH's blood results had arrived, and asked casually if they could check they had everything they needed from me. You know what the answer was already... On hold to local surgery now to see if I can get a slot for everything later today. WHY didn't I phone a week ago when they contacted AMNH and not me?

Northey · 07/11/2012 15:31

Right. Back here for the second time today, this time being waved at by a most enchanting toddler waiting for his injections. I will win one. I will.

HavingALittleFaithBaby · 07/11/2012 16:32

This will be how you get your win norf, I am certain of it (brooking no argument for you!) :)

Northey · 07/11/2012 16:42

Ouch! Gallons of blood and some cervical swabs later...

EuroShagmore · 07/11/2012 17:25

The things we put ourselves through, eh?

HavingALittleFaithBaby · 07/11/2012 17:31

Well done norf.

Here you go

Northey · 07/11/2012 17:34

I had a gorgeous nurse though. She's pregnant but struggled for years and years for her win, and is so lovely.

Shit. I now basically have a crush on every single female healthcare professional at that surgery.

Northey · 07/11/2012 17:35

Do I get a lolly as well, faif?

HavingALittleFaithBaby · 07/11/2012 17:46

That's ok norf, you're allowed to have girl crushes :) and yes, have a lolly too. Cuppa chup? Strawberries and cream is my favourite.

FrankelDeBeauvoir · 07/11/2012 17:47

Grin @ Norf and her alarmingly large number of girl crushes Wink

I am feeling crampy today, suspect droid is en route Sad

MissWinklyParadiso · 07/11/2012 17:53

MissWinklyParadiso · 07/11/2012 17:56

Where the fuck has my sad face for droidy frankel gone?

MissWinklyParadiso · 07/11/2012 17:56

alwyn · 07/11/2012 18:08

A BESH FB secret group! What an excellent idea. Someone very clever must have thought of that! ;)

Northey · 07/11/2012 20:42

Although I love and rejoice for PESH I knew as BESH, I am not sure I want to be in a group full of people who have won their baybees already if I wasn't with them for the struggle, if you see what I mean. Otherwise it just feels like more of the same old thing of being confronted with mothers and baybees everywhere you go and less of the safe haven of barrens.

But then that probably isn't fair on those of you who have been here longer and therefore were with those CRESH for the struggle.

Hmmm. How do other people feel?

FrankelDeBeauvoir · 07/11/2012 20:52

I know where you are coming from Norf, but I do think it would be sad to throw someone out/lose contact just because they move from PESH to CRESH. I'm sure they will not post anything insensitive within the confines of the BESH group.

Northey · 07/11/2012 20:54

Fair point, frank. Their inner ESH will keep them true.
