Morning everyone, just let me wolf down this amazing meal of tinned tongue, hardboiled eggs and ginger beer (don't you find food always tastes so much better outside?) and we'll toddle off on our latest adventure. We'll make sure Anne does the washing up (you'll make a proper little housewife and no doubt the fecund mother of four fine sons one day Anne ) and us boys can have the proper adventures! No, not you George - you're nearly as good as a boy but not quite. Leave the actual procreating to me and Dick. Woof woof! Shut up Timmy!

Well done for self-stabbing Norfy. I find the first one is odd - it's the psychological barrier of piercing your own skin - bit once you are past that it's not too bad.

I hadn't self-injected since last June when I had to do my trigger shot on Monday. I was quite blasé about it by the end of downregging in the summer but had to sort of brace myself on Monday. Luckily I was a bit pissed as I'd been out for drinks and firm gossip after work with someone visiting from our head office, so I just got on with it. :)

Have a Google, I'm sure someone will have put something up.

We're going to keep doing the sechs for the next day or two and then it's blood test on 11th to confirm ov and POAF on 20th if no droid.

I was also a bit pissed and I think it did help. Though also made me worry I had forgotten something!

Good work with the stabbing. I found mixing the Menopur a bit of a faff the first couple of times but found having a routine helped ( that's my OCD creeping in).

How are you feeling after ET Euro?

Norfy I made KFZK prep it for me cos I really was half cut.... I had wine without food and I am out of practice so it went straight to my head. Oopsie.

Jeff I am feeling fine. Not physically different from normal apart from the nasty leaky shyte up my foof. How are you doing? Still in shock?

JethroTull · 03/02/2013 15:26

Ah the foof tablets are a joy aren't they? One positive is that I take mine at 6.30 am so have to take the other ones 12 hours later which means I get to sit down with my feet up for 20 mins when we get in from work. Yes, still in shock. POA digi S this morning as I wanted to make sure it was real. Fortunately it still was. I'm definitely not ready for graduating to PESH yet so if it's ok with everyone will just lurk here for a bit.

Lurk as long as you like jeff. It's good to have a mascot in here!

Good luck all stabbers (and well done of the first self-stab norfy)

Good luck WOOFLING frank and euro. I think I am a cycle twin. Not doing and AC so not really menkulling, but we are having plenty of SFF.

Still not emailed frank, I am pathetic

Come on drizz, where is your Famous Five spunk?

I had SFF this morning but am now concerned that perhaps I'm not meant to. Off to google again..,

Maybe I am Anne at heart Wink. Today I am cold, and sweetly doing my homework (bloody assignment number 2, should come to 4000 words, just over 2000 now).

I am sure you're still allowed SFF, norf. How else will you clean up His Contribution?

Action hero suits me, just so long as I'm not the girly "heroine" that actually just gets in the way/gets herself kidnapped/screams all the time.

I'm with you Frank. No screaming and no swooning. Did anyone see Angelina Jolie in Salt? Awesome. Not a catsuit or a weep in sight.

Jeff stay as long as you want. I can't imagine not being part of this board. It has been a part of my life for so long.

Action movie thread is a good idea. It will mean I won't need to reread loads of trashy 80s chicklit to have some idea what is going on (although that could be fun too)! I love a good action film.

I'm just back from seeing an inaction film - the Life of Pi. I saw my friends with the IVF 4 yr and 2 yr old twins. When we mentioned the word "cinema" they looked wistful!

I've felt a bit crampy and odd this evening. Trying not to menkul. I've noticed one odd thing - despite the extra progesterone, my boobs aren't hurty. They normally start getting sore within 24 hrs of ov. I'm 4 days past egg collection now and have been on the progesterone fanny bullets since Wednesday. Puzzling.

HavingALittleFaithBaby · 03/02/2013 21:33

jeff that's totally normal and understandable. PESH is moving quite slowly at present (not that many differs) but when you're ready, poke your nose round the door.

euro it's such early days, Tis impossible to tell and impossible not to menkul

Well done on the stabbing norf, sure it'll get easier with time :)

Second meet with MIL was easier. She didn't touch the bump once!

It took me a good while to go to the PESH. I felt like I was going to jinx everything!
