Doff your top hats, lean on your canes, 'tis a Victorian Christmas for the BESH. Baste those turkeys in Victoria & Albert style, and maintain a stiff upper lip when you fill in the BESHtionnaire to see if you are cynical stoic enough to win a Baybee.

Yes, good luck Jethro

This morning I declare:
The famous five and the adventures with the Dildocam.

Thinking growy thoughts to your ovaries jeff and also that they show themselves well TMI when I get scanned early morning my bowels are clearly waking up to which means a lot of grey blurriness in front of the ovaries, which makes it harder to see properly

Massive well done for telling your mum norf, if I hadn't said so before (I've been reading but not have much chance of replying).

Hope you're getting better faif. Sorry you've been in so much pain!

SB has just gone to the clinic to do his bit and bring me back croissants for brekkie :)

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 09/01/2013 08:16

Good luck our Jeffers x

maamalady · 09/01/2013 08:20

Good luck, Jeff!

Northey · 09/01/2013 08:48

lem, are you basically saying that all the sonography could see was poo?

lovesLemonDrizzleCake · 09/01/2013 09:09

I am saying she had to push through the developing poo, particularly on the left side

lovesLemonDrizzleCake · 09/01/2013 09:10

Btw I just caught up on the ivf-prep-thread. Massive good luck for tomorrow, take a list and you'll be fine!

HavingALittleFaithBaby · 09/01/2013 10:06

So bloody luffly to sleep in our bed, with my MSB and my maternity pillow! I feel tonnes better!

Norf I can imagine saying a tad sarcastically, Well, Dsis still has a 50% chance of conceiving naturally in the next 6 months. However, I wonder if your Mum is worrying that she's to 'blame' in some ways? Did it take her long to win you and your sister?

Thinking shimmy thoughts for SB.

Sending all kind of positivity, horseshoes, four leafed clovers but not rabbit feet cos that's yucky to Jeffers for today :)

lovesLemonDrizzleCake · 09/01/2013 10:16

SB is back, croissant finished and I am ridiculously nervous. Why? It is my bloody sixth IUI...

lovesLemonDrizzleCake · 09/01/2013 10:17

PS great you had a good night sleep, faif!

EuroShagmore · 09/01/2013 10:56

Jeff good luck for scannage!

Faif I can imagine that you are relieved to be at home again.

Norf I find the comment by your mum intriguing. It does suggest maybe she had difficulties too-?

I had acu this morning. I'm 6/7dpo and we both agree that there is nothing going on this month. So there's no avoiding the IVF then.

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 09/01/2013 10:59

Good luck lemony too. Legs in the air girl!

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 09/01/2013 11:03

It's definitely Five Have a Dildocam Adventure round here this morning.

Euro that's a curiously flat feeling isn't it? That despite your best efforts and your most strong of wills, that you will have to have AC after all, even though you knew really anyway xxx

I have finally finished SWI despite knowing it's pointless. The reason I was startled at the day 16 egg white was because I am usually more of a day 13 kind of gal. But we'll see. It burned off some calories anyway.

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 09/01/2013 11:42

Oh how I am laughing at this

And not in a mean way, in a genuinely perplexed and amused way Grin. The thing is, they will probably get diffed in 2 months or so. Bless.

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 09/01/2013 11:46

I am dying to write "Good luck girls! lol!" but that definitely would look bitchy.

HavingALittleFaithBaby · 09/01/2013 11:51

I didn't feel justified in joining MN til we'd been trying to win a baybee for a year...

Too many lils and lols for me. They'll be throwing babydust around next...

maamalady · 09/01/2013 12:53

I don't think I ever felt like that, really. Aside from first sechs sans contraceptives when we thought "no going back no", it's been fairly even minded.

I joined MN a month before we started TTC, but that was because I got seduced by the TSA over on adult fiction Grin

EuroShagmore · 09/01/2013 13:04

Draf I think I felt the same.

I joined MN about 4 months into ttc. I think I was googling about acu or something and stumbled across the conception boards.

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 09/01/2013 13:12

When I started musing about having a baby and secretly knowing for some reason it would be hard for us, God knows how, I googled, is 35 too old for your first baby or somesuch shite and found my way here. I'm afraid I was guilty at first of putting little winking faces at the mention of "trying" Blush

Evening all. Consent consultation was quite pleasant really. Did forms, drug mixing and stabbing lessons, a baseline scan and a trial embryo transfer (ouch). AMNH very much enjoyed the latter, involving, as it did, a beautiful young French lady doctor burrowing between my naked thighs. Pervert boy.

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 09/01/2013 18:01

Glad it went well Norf, though definite ouch to the trial transfer!

Any news from our other scanners/appointments?

JethroTull · 09/01/2013 18:08

Scan was a bit rubbish. Only 4 follicles. I have to go back tomorrow & see the consultant. Please pray, cross fingers, send positive thoughts etc
Sad

EuroShagmore · 09/01/2013 18:10

norf I'm glad it went well! I've never had a trial transfer. I can't see that it can be much different to what goes on with IUI though, and I had no problems with that. In fact, everything seems to find easy access to my womble other than KFZK's swimmers.

Rie please tell me you didn't post about wanting a "lil bubs" too or I might have to rethink my opinion of you....

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 09/01/2013 18:17

Sorry to hear that Jethro Sad
