You know the drill by now ...

Rules of Entry - must be over 30, TTC no. 1 for over a year, be suitably evil and Hag like, willing to shout Cunt at the moon on regular occasions, consume extra gin when our fellow hags are unable to, and to get the nipple tassles out for any successful Hag ...

and now we've been trained by the government in our new MI5 roles, we are likely to get a little Ninja on your ass if you babydust round here ...

No admittance without a complete BESHtionnaire - see below.

more dwarves, sympathy menkul and sticklebacks of stickiness barking. Will be refreshing like mad!!

Erica no d&c - it was spontaneous. Glad it seems you guys drew the same conclusion from that study I did, although now I am wondering if I should badger for another tube flush while we wait for IVF as it seemed to do the job last time. Can't see that bring an option but bloody hell, if I haven't been able to get diffed for three years because of 'mucous plugs' (gross!) I an going to be annoyed!!!

blue another German word - mittelschmertz it something like that isn't it? Anyway, it can just fuck off.

bad I hope the wedding isn't too much if a drag. You should totally make up an amazing cover story for your bruises. Fighting off ninjas or some such. Grin

barkingtreefrog · 28/03/2015 08:51

bad you have to use that inspired line from fab. Ooo, I'm almost wishing for someone to ask me an inappropriate question so I can throw that at them Grin. I would too Grin .

chez is cutting the family trip one day short an option? Sounds like a good suggestion if it's possible?

Thanks for the emotional dwarfs but if it's all the same to you, could I leave them outside the room? There will be enough people in there digging around my nether regions without a load of hairy men staring at me and shuffling around Hmm .

So, news just in. We have one good quality blastocyst that will be going back in at 11am Grin Grin Grin .

We also have one that is ok to freeze, and she said an 80% chance it would survive the freeze. There are two stragglers at the back that still have potential to be freezable, but they're slow developers and not ready just yet. I'm not sure how much time they will give them in the race before removing the finishing line!

Blue2014 · 28/03/2015 09:00

Whoop! Grin

I'll hold back the dwarves while you get that little fella/lady in your womble - settle in well little one, that's gonna be your home for the next 9 months Smile

Fab, what a lovely message. That is exactly what I'll do. I wish I had the balls to say those exact words to the aunties who unfailingly ask me that every.single.time we meet. Maybe I will this time, I'm cross and menkul enough.

barking, I really hope you get good news today. I'll be refreshing like bejaysus in the hope of a good 'un.

blue, did you hear back from your friend? People can be so weird about it. I have one friend who is brilliant, having been through IVF (and of course you hags), but the few others I've told either sort of ignore it, or pat me awkwardly saying "it'll happen, I just know it". My sister is one of the ignorers, but that's a whole 'nother post.

And yes - TCIF means exactly as you thought!

cherry, German's not pretty, it's true, but I love how direct it is. No fucking around. My favourite word is fremdschamen (it's so onomatopoeic), but I also like kummerspeck (grief bacon - weight you gain from menkul overeating). We hags also know all about torschlusspanik, which is a fear of time running out before you achieve your life goals (literally means panic about the gate closing).

I should get up and start getting ready for this wedding rather than lying in bed, lazing about. Sigh.

barkingtreefrog · 28/03/2015 09:10

I think I'm really lucky with my friends, I've had 6 friends (including my SiL) who have been in touch by text all this week, responding to every follicle/egg/embryo update!! One has already texted this morning to wish me luck Smile . Only one has been through IVF themselves but they all kind of understand for different reasons - one has had a mc and an ectopic, one had failed ivf (not enough follicles to proceed) but then a bonus natural diff, my SIL is incredibly close to her bestie who had ivf twins, one has a SiL who went through failed ivf, one is going through the adoption process having been diagnosed with so many fertility problems it was better to stop trying, and the other is my best mate who is trying hard to empathise but generally sticks to 'it's going to work! this is your time! I have a great feeling about this' etc.

Part of me thinks I'm lucky. The other part of me reading that back thinks it's horrible that there's so much of this pain going round Sad .

FizzyFeet · 28/03/2015 09:14

Just poking head in to say whoop whoop for a strong blasto!

Re tube clearing - the increased fertility is A Thing but I wouldn't pin hopes on it. I know of quite a few people (other posters, natch, as we are in the Do Not Speak Of Such Things camp irl) who have been really upset when they haven't been updiffed 3 months after the procedure. FWIW I got diffed 2 months after lap and dye (after 18 months of nada) but it was ectopic. I I was always minded to get the big ivf guns out BUT it's a very personal decision.

Blue2014 · 28/03/2015 11:27

Oh bad, I love love love the German words. Thanks Thanks hope the wedding doesn't suck too much.

Did hear back from friend, I think I had been a bit too cool "hey everything's fine and I need ivf and that's cool" and she hadn't realised I had wobbled - she replied soon after I posted about it. She's very stable and well balanced and helps me logically plan my way out of a wobble so looks like all will be fine. I do wish I could just speak openly about it, I actually want to smash the stigma to bits but Mr Blue would be mortified so I'll keep quiet.

This mittlesmertz is a bitch this month, feels like the worst it has ever been. Fucker.

Hope it's all currently going well barking Thanks

Blue glad your friend got in touch Smile.

I'M PUPO!!!!!! Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin

Blue2014 · 28/03/2015 11:39

Woooooooooo!!!!!! GrinThanks

(I don't actually know what pupo means but I know it means the transfer went well)

I've got a good feeling about this all hags, I think there is a chance that our magic number may be more than 3 - I think we gonna loose a lot of hags to the PESH this year Smile

Yay PUPO Barking!!

Blue I'm pleased you heard back from your friend Smile

TheRainDrops · 28/03/2015 12:53

PUPO!

TheRainDrops · 28/03/2015 12:54

err, gay abandon obviously. Not sure who Gary Abandon is but he can be a mascot too!! Grin

FizzyFeet · 28/03/2015 13:55

Hooray! Two PUPO BESH and two differs!

Is Gary Abandon one of those German dwarves?

cherrycoconut · 28/03/2015 19:30

Ha ha, you beat me to it Fizz, go on, stick it Gary! Get back wiv yer dwarves where you belong mate. Hurrah for being PUPO Barking, hope you're doing some good old resting up and being well looked after?

I am so bloated ATM it's ridiculous hags, I've got a serious pot on me and am dreading a BFN because it's gonna mean serious weight loss required to get in any of my trousers. I keep trying to remember whether I felt this 'full' and twingey last time or whether I just need a good poo

cherrycoconut · 28/03/2015 19:42

I'm so undecided about testing hags. Much as I'm quite enjoying the denial of the PUPO state, Monday seems the sensible option an awful long time to wait. Do you think I'd get a result if I POAS on Tuesday 11dp2dt? Or am I being ridiculous?!

Blue I'm so glad that your wobble fixing friend has been in touch, just what you need! I'm not really sure what I'd do without the BESH through all this shit. ROCH is eternally grateful for all the ear assigns you have collectively saved him from!

Loving the German vocab Bad, I never knew how many cool words they have, definitely a language, of a people, that call a spade a spade!

barkingtreefrog · 28/03/2015 19:44

chez according to the early response tests they are 98% accurate on 13dpo, so yes, you should get a result on Tuesday.
but we all know I'm not a great example when it comes to testing on sensible days

Hmmm I'll see how the menkul is looking... I could be cracking open an HPT this week at some point. I've got this weird pulling sensation in my belly. It's very odd. Either I've eaten too many eggs or it surely must mean I'm diffed right? Confused don't answer that hags.

cherrycoconut · 28/03/2015 20:15

The ones sitting in my bedside drawers are tinter web cheapies Bugs, if I use any it'll be them... I hate the finality of the CBD tests. Reading 'not pregnant. BARP!' was a bitter blow last time. I'd like a little more subtlety I think, squinter or not Wink

I always thought the internet cheapies weren't as sensitive? I have a bag of those in the bathroom....
I hear what you're saying on the CBD ones, the 'not pregnant' is worse than the absence of a line.
So, Superdrug then....?
I got my iui bfp on 13dpo but there was a squinter on 12dpo. That was with first response. And then I did the CBD on 14dpo......

I hate this bit. Even a bfp isn't going to mean much to me until the clinic have done the blood test and told me the hcg levels, given last time I got my bfp but they weren't high enough.

barkingtreefrog · 28/03/2015 22:33

Has anyone else seen obsessed over this website?

I think a frer, a super drug one and an internet cheapie will be my plan of action. Just dip 'em all them sit back and panic as I wait for a line.....
