Apologies if I've missed you or got something wrong

twinkle sorry to hear you are feeling down, I feel like crap after 8 cycles so it must be so tough for you and everyone who has been trying 12 months+

Trying to look at the positives here today which isn't like me as I'm usually little miss negative! Our house is so very nearly finished after 5 months work, yay maybe no house stress will help me and DH. Also it's my birthday sat so deffo having a few drinkies, maybe an appletini or two

Thx bunny, it's very very tough.

[ducks to avoid sausage wanging]

Viv that advice about not being jealous of a whole pregnant lady (so to speak)... That's some really helpful stuff. I wouldn't trade my life for my pg friends' but I do get so jealous.... Probably also need a good slap round the chops [stands up and gets in the queue]

[runs in and retrieves mangled, carpet fluff-ed Cumberland sausage and slinks away for some solo sexy time]

[returns shame-faced...Cumberland sausage too small for Viv's wizard's sleeve]

Oi, Viv! I was eating that! Hang on...solo sexy time you say? You may keep it.

Right, I'm off to steal a pavlova off Pip and then I'm bringing it back for a food fight!

Lol, viv! You've actually just made me google 'large sausages' to see if I can come up with a better suggestion for you. (Makes note to delete browsing history...)

All this sausage wanging is making me peckish

(wonders if we've all lost the plot now)

I am laughing my fucking head off..

[jots down 'must buy marrow' on to-do list]

The Elderly Sausage-Wangers.

Bunny, I think we just may have! We're getting close to the end of this thread now...I wonder if we can fill the remaining 84 slots with sausage wanging!?

Viv at marrow!!!

Thoroughly intended on spending this evening doing some reading around thyroid and fertility issues so I could go to the doctor tomorrow armed (and dangerous) with knowledge. Instead I shall go, sit in her chair and start tittering about sausages, growling captain and viv's prize marrow.

Can that be our new, extended name? The Elderly Sausage-Pavlova Wangers? Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?

[runs in, hoys pavlova, runs off giggling]

Thanks for that twinkle hope it's helped you feel a bit better too

No use shoving the sausage up there viv. It won't get you pregnant!

Out of limbo here, af arrives! Roll on a successful February bfp!

thunder signs that AF is coming any day here too! If it comes for my birthday I will be most annoyed, no birthday shag

Oh bollocks pants bunny, hope she doesn't get in the way of birthday frolics.

On the very selfish plus side, does this mean you and me are cycle buddies? I could do with someone to share the insanity!

I am screaming laughing at these sausage and pavlova shenanegans! Boodle, I love your new name suggestion...the word 'sausage' gets me every time [childish snigger].

Thunder, I'm sorry about AF. Can anyone cycle-buddy me? I'm 2DPO.

Twinkle, been thinking about you, missus. Do you feel maybe your fella's 2% morphology is problematic? Mr. Viv's is 3% and, although I've been told this is 'low but fine' I simply don't believe it - which is why I'm looking forward to IUI where the sperm is washed and the top-dollar stuff used. I think you'll feel heaps better when you get to see a fertility consultant. Have you considered a lap & dye to see what's going on inside? I can't bloody wait for mine - I'm hoping they'll rescue this marrow.
