We're getting serious this time BESHies. Welcome to the Palace, where the emphasis is on sophistication. Cast your eyes over the plush carpet, admire the oh-so-carefully worn leather armchairs with sidetables and little green lamps. We have the Bonds of the ages as barstaff, waiting to serve martinis and the finest champagne.

To your left you'll see the Pit, which hopefully we won't be needing much. To your right the Cave of Gloom, and straight ahead we have our special space for the 2WOOFL. You'll find beanbags and gym balls there, the walls have been specially painted to allow you to write your symptoms up and wipe them off if they disappear. It's all the rage for Blue Sky thinking these days. And there are donuts and coffee to keep you going as you try to shift that paradigm.

VoilaAnotherGimlet · 06/07/2010 09:58

Muser · 06/07/2010 10:00

ginhag · 06/07/2010 10:05

Good luck Lyra my lovely.

And don't forget wildfig in your maffs or she may never come back!

I an trying to work but someone has replaced my brains with jam.

PerfectDromedary · 06/07/2010 10:11

Gin! Yayayayayayayayayayayayayayay. Nekkid dancing commences forthwith.

Good luck, Lyra!

Scorpette · 06/07/2010 10:12

GINBABY YEAH!!! Am abso-fucking-lutely ecstatic for you Did you think the BESH magick would fail?! I hope you can start to demenkul a bit and start to enjoy it and believe. Because we all do

And Lyricaldancer, good luck for the Hycosy. Gold star to HO for being such a sweetie. I have probably panicked more than any other BESH before having procedures done and I can shamefacedly tell you and others that having things done is never as painful as you imagine - the stress of worrying beforehand is always worse. I ain't had a Hycosy, but I'm sure you'll be fine and we all know you're a brave soldier. Want me to come and kiss it all better later?

Muser, it feels real because it is real. So happy that everyone's having tiptop scannage and I bet your family is over the moon

Needles Lady is back from hols and I'm off for lots of pricks later, yippee! Really want this cycle to be my winner

PS TYF told me teh secks was extra good last night, so clearly I am a comedy sexpot and no mistake. So booyah to the mockers!

laurielou · 06/07/2010 10:16

GIN That's farking ace news!!! Am grinning like a crazy fool. I really am so, so pleased. Has it sunk in yet? Do you feel a bit more reassured? I hope so, I really want you to enjoy your diff.

lyra God, so sorry for forgetting about your day. Glad you have company! I'm rubbish at hospitals / pain etc etc but I was totally fine with this. I cried a bit with relief but then the rest of the day I was on a total high. Still, its good to get it over & done with. Fingers crossed for you, x

Oh, this fred is bloody marvellous!!! Can't believe there are only 8 of us non-differs left. I think that's a fan-bloody-tastic record. Am so confident for the 8 of us with the MSDP I have the estate agent on stand by to put the Palais up for sale.....(or is the Deli in the grounds of the Palais? Should we keep the Palais as our bolt-hole?)

Either way, muchos nekkid dancing ahoy!

Cosmosis · 06/07/2010 10:23

ginnygingingin!!!!!!! fanblardytastic news!!

good luck lyra

HoneyPetal · 06/07/2010 10:40

Hey Gin-lady, I hope you don't mind me dropping in but I have been occasionally stalking lurking in the Palace since we 'met' at Christmas, you really stuck in my mind young lady, and I was hoping there would be good news from you ....and there is!!!

Many, many congratulations on the baybee!

Bessie123 · 06/07/2010 10:52

I haven't been around much lately, just popped in to see how Gin is. I'm so pleased to see everything is ok, and all the lovely diffments on the thread. We must be nearly at our quota of updiffs for this thread (MASSIVE YAY to Medee for yesterday's news), there must be about 8 or 9 places on a new fred for some evil, selfish stragglers... I nominate Scropey to start it.

iggypiggy · 06/07/2010 11:00

Fucking fantastic news gin

Scorpette · 06/07/2010 11:09

Fanks, Bessie

ginhag · 06/07/2010 11:10

honeypetal!!! That is so weird,I actually thought of you this morning on my way to the scan...thanks for stalking me

bessie nice to see ya!

everyone I HEART YOU.

gibber gibber gibber.....

PollyPoo · 06/07/2010 11:24

Just got in from shopping - Fucking YAY for GinFizz! How are you feeling now? This calls for champagne cocktails and nekid dancing all round

maswera · 06/07/2010 11:33

Yaaayyyy for gin. Great news my luvver. How far along are you now?

ChoChoSan · 06/07/2010 11:45

Ginster you are DA BOMB!!!

Lyra thinking of you, my brave soldier...hope al goes well this PM.

And to all the rest of you lovers out there, the next platter I'll be spinning on my wheels of steel is Moby's 'Find My Baby'...kicking off the summer diffment at B.E.S.H. Radio FM

ginhag · 06/07/2010 11:49

About 6 weeks by dates, scan not v helpful in confirming or denying this at such an early stage as 1 or 2 days make such an incredible difference...

As to how I'm feeling, shocked mostly I guess. Has been so long since I have had a dildocam that hasn't been shit news....and I really was prepared for the worst.

Mr gin reckons it was the beer I had after the bleed on Saturday that revived the BOC

am aware there are still beshies who are not sure where they are at with scans n bleeding so don't want to go on about it endlessly

and all the beshies waiting...when I can spare some vibes from willing my joe mangel to be made of Velcro I will be doing the voodoo for youtoo...

Aries you asked for conception advise. Drink far too much, stay up late and shag on the sofa with your knickers round your ankles

HoneyPetal · 06/07/2010 12:08

Couldn't be more chuffed, you are made of strong-yet-squishy stuff.

Glad you aren't scared by the stalking, BTW

Also, is that conception advice patented? I'm pretty sure its not in TCOYF...thumbs through pages.....hmmmmmm...

Right, I'll leave you beeatches to your bizzness now.

Orchid12 · 06/07/2010 12:28

Tentatively steps into the room. If you're on the lookout for new recruits to join you in the lovely Palais, then I offer you my services (whichever ones you would like!). Have been stalking keeping up with this thread for a while but not got round to joining.

All the good news on the MSDP front has enticed me out of lurkdom and I'm ready to be a fully fledged member if you'll have me? purleease?

Bit about me so you know who you're letting into the sacred Palais. Am 31, ttc number 2. Been at it since Dec 09. Had yukky scan and gynae appt few weeks ago to explore some pains I've been having. Found nothing! Have been offered a laporoscopy if I want one, but it turned it down for the moment. DH has got his first white goods test on Thursday . Am currently dreading having to do the whole pee on a stick business tomorrow morning as droid is due on Fri to make sure that DH is def going to the clinic. I have zero symptoms, not even my brilliantly vivid imagination can muster some up so inevitably it will be a BFN tomorrow and lots of pissedoffness from me (and from DH as will have to go and do his bizzness for them)

Am I in?

Bessie123 · 06/07/2010 12:44

Orchid there is a questionnaire that you must track down and complete. You must also tell us where you live (to be a proper BESH it should be East London, Bristol or the West Country but we do make exceptions). You must either be ginger or have a ginger family member.

Welcome.

slowshow · 06/07/2010 12:53

Did someone say new recruits? I am a long time lurker, haven't posted because my beloved and I have gasp not yet started TTC. We're abandoning contraception on our wedding night* in 7 and a bit weeks. Guess this makes me both a BESH and from the 19th century.

I will fill out the questionnaire as soon as I find it. I live at the arse end of the Northern line and my oldest friend is ginger. Does that count?

  • No, I don't think we'll manage wedding night secks either.
Orchid12 · 06/07/2010 12:57

will look for the questionnaire shortly! Have to go and see boss lady for a meeting now.

Heaven forbid, I am a Norvener living in't Midlands. Need my passport stamping to go further South than Brum I'm afraid.

Hair colour has been many, many things over the years. DS was a good ginger for about a year too, t'other half thought he belonged to the milkman for a good while.

laurielou · 06/07/2010 12:58

orchid as long as you do not get diffed before me that's fine . Surely, surely its my turn?

gin you mind if I stop nekkid dancing for a bit? My leg aches & I'm chilly
