If you’re over 30, ttc over 12 months and wearing nipple tassels under your snowsuit then this just might be the thread for you - if you can prove yourself bitter and evil enough. We’ll be the judge of that. Don your snowsuit , cowbell ready - fill in the BESHtionnaire and prepare to meet our icy glare. This is a marathon, not a sprint.

OIC.

eurochick · 27/01/2014 10:06

hest I had 2 day 2 transfers and 2 day 3 transfers with my 4 rounds.

HesterShaw · 27/01/2014 10:16

Right. Fanks.

eurochick · 27/01/2014 11:30

I never had enough embies to try to get to day 5, but still managed 2 chem pregs and 2 BFPs, so my embies might have been few in number but they were trying hard!

Nice bugs. I'm very jealous. I really could have done with another sofa day but I had to come in to get things ready for my work trip. I leave tomorrow.

BTW, a couple of weeks ago I went to a topical comedy thing above a pub. It was generally very good but one or two sketches were a bit close to the bone and one of them was called "Germans can't ski". They focussed on Merkel's tumble rather than Schumie's horrific accident but it all seemed in rather poor taste nonetheless. However, they introduced the sketch with "Germans can't Germans can't Germans can't can't ski, Germans can't Germans can't Germans can't can't ski" set to the Ski Sunday theme music and every time I see this thread title it pops into my head.

Nausea seems like a reasonable reaction to Dirty Dancing, bugs. As for box sets, I've just started series five of Angel and am loving it Grin If you have Netflix, they have all of Buffy on there...

MyNameIsWinkly · 27/01/2014 16:19

Walking Dead is excellent bugs, but I have actual Zombie Fear so can't watch it on my own. I'm fond of The Wire, and Game Of Boobs Thrones is very good.

eurochick · 27/01/2014 16:24

The Walking Dead is excellent but perhaps a bit, um, gooey if you are feeling nauseous!

The Wire is also very good.

We are currently enjoying Hawaii 5-0 (the new one) as a bit of a guilty pleasure. Some of the storylines are ridiculous, but they don't require much brain power and the scenery is amazing. It's on Lovefilm I think, if you have that.

I love zombies and the walking dead is my all time fave. In fact I'm smarting at the fact I'll be in the middle of the bollocking North Sea during the airing of the next episode.

As for cabergoline (dostinex) - I am your go to drugs gal Wink and I've taken it after the birth of my youngest to stop my milk coming in. No side effects whatsoever, in fact I was less weepy than the first time around. Tbh if you're stabbing I can't see how another shot is going to affect you one way or another anyway.

Game of Thrones is ace, though I love the books more - think you get more out of the TV show if you know more of the background and politics. Having said that, Peter Dinklage is perfect, he is exactly how Tyrion is in my head. Definitely worth watching.

Sorry about Dirty Dancing, but I watched it for the first (and only) time last year, and I'm afraid it's one of the worst films I've ever seen. Maybe you have to watch it as a teenager The other night we watched my Christmas present from HOTB - if you haven't seen My Neighbour Totoro, you should! It's crackers and lovely :)

Adding my voice to the Game Of Thrones vote. The books are better, but confusing at times with all the different characters. The series makes it easier to picture it. If you need light relief can you get/do you have the Big Bang Theory boxset? I'm watching Babylon 5 again at the moment so would heartily recommend that.

Sorry you're feeling so rough with the tablets bugs, hoping they do the trick for you. In answer to your much earlier question, yes I got quite tender in the norkage department pre-trigger, and post-trigger my nips became incredibly sore (poss though this had more to do with me struggling to get my rings back in after EC).

My one little emby made it through the night. I am now PUPO with a 2 day 6 cell transfer.

HesterShaw · 27/01/2014 17:34

Hurrah for the embie making it through the night. Well done!

Except...what does your last sentence mean?

ControlGeek · 27/01/2014 17:41

Sorry hest I think the bladder pain must have gone to my head! I'm now pregnant until/unless proven otherwise (PUPO) and my emby was at the 6 cell stage, which is slightly ahead of the game, for a day 2 transfer.

maamalady · 27/01/2014 17:43

Excellent news, geek! Everything crossed :) (what does PUPO mean, again?)

My favourite film is Jurassic Park, bugs, it's a brilliant brilliant film but not quite what most people would call "classic"...

HesterShaw · 27/01/2014 17:44

In that case...yay!! :o

maamalady · 27/01/2014 17:44

Aha, thanks for solving the PUPO riddle!

FrankelInFoal · 27/01/2014 17:44

Hurrah for EOB (embryo on board) Geek Grin

Have you tried West Wing Bugs? Best tv show ever, with the possible exception of Buffy

JethroTull · 27/01/2014 18:01

Brilliant Geek - fingers crossed.
