We are Barren. We are Evil, on account of having left procreating until our 30s. We are Selfish, thinking only of careers and money and cars and holidays. And lastly, we are Hags. Welcome to the BESH gin palace. Babydusters and instadiffers need not apply.

draf have a lovely time in Wales and I hope this shitty weather picks up. All I ask of summer is to not need a coat, and so far it's let me down badly.

norf did you always have such long cycles or have they changed?

Is that for the start of your next cycle norf? If so, that puts us in a similar position.

drizz will you test before the scan? They won't do a baseline scan before droid has arrived, will they?

It's scan or official test day. I have a fairly reliable 13day LP. So if no droid on Wed evening, things are exciting. If droid on Wed, it's start of the new cycle and baseline scan on day 2 or 3. And then on to the pill Hmm

I am through with today, not that I have done a thing. Except from book a trip towards some of you :) but I can't say more for fear of outage.

Your cycles sound crap norf. Where they always thus?

OFTD=a typo, but I can be mystifying if I try Wink

Norf, your cycles sound deeply annoying. Is that a pcos thing or just contrary womble?

Drizz - oooh, you get more mysterious with every post! Trips, eh?

Moll, I'd be very happy to let you do the new fred.

drizz at least you are reliable! I seem to be a bit less so since the mc. It's annoying. Meh.

Cycles have always been mad - 100daysish when left to their own devices, but have managed to get them down to 33 days over the years of ovarian drilling and metfirmin and clomid etc. They got screwed up again by the second ectopic and last cycle was the first post ivf, so I'm not surprised they were long. The interesting thing will be how long this one is, as that will be an indication of whether they are just settling down, or are on a track to being totally out of control again.

Good luck with c25k. I've been spectacularly lazy and need to kick myself up the arse.

It's tricky kicking yourself up the arse. The angle's all wrong.

I'm working all weekend too - heading after a day of customer service with hangover..

Frank, I'll be popping by your place tomorrow then. Grin

Good luck with the running moll. Every time I restart, I am amazed at how quickly I improve. (So if you find it tough at first, it will get easier and probably sooner than you would expect.)

I need to get back to the gym/running. Between the mc, working crazy hours, headbump op and fanny biopsy, I've been kept away for far too long and it shows.

frank I made chocolate muffins this morning. They are really rather good, if I do say so myself.

I've had quite a pleasant day - brunch out with some friends, a trip to B&Q for plants and new hanging baskets, sorting out the garden and then swi. Now KFZK is busy in the kitchen making salt and pepper prawns. I heart long weekends.

Evening hags!

I had a day without any TTC misery :) a 10km run, followed by lunch, a museum, a brief bit of vegging = SWithoutI, huge dinner and stinky cheese and wine for desert. Now I am knackered and feeling very pleased.

PS start C5K tomorrow, it will make it easier moll.

On other news I am squiffy quite a bit of wine with the illegal cheese so I cannot remember what else I needed to tell you!

Can I have some cheesecake and some muffins, please? I burned 700something calories and SB told me I lost weight when I paraded round sans clothes to try and convince him to come back to bed. So I need to top my intake up Wink

Drizz I'm starting C25K til Tuesday because I'm still waiting for the laparoscopy wounds to heal properly - the main one hasn't yet, it got slightly infected and has been all weepy and sore and smelly. I'm having what I hope will be the last dressing change and dissolvable stitches out on Monday, so I'm thinking positive about going for a run on Tuesday without opening everything up again.

Fair enough, in squiffy state forgot the lap-wounds moll. Let them heal properly first and then get diffed immediately accidentally, if your not TTCing-- so you get the C2TB (toilet bowl) to an absolute minimum.

I had something else witty to say, but it is gone, so I'll save it for tomorrow!

C2TB! Haha!
