    I conceived DS after 3 cycles of Clomid. From what I can remember I think Clomid should make you have a noticeable visit from AF. On my first round my cycle was tracked via regular blood tests so there should be a way your FS can answer your questions by looking at your blood work. But just in case a BFP is on the way check with your doc before your next cycle. All the best it sounds like this could be it for you, I send heaps of your way .

    Hi,
    I have no idea about clomid, but have a look at my FF chart below, I had spotting for DAYS before my BFP, and I have had a trouble free pregnancy.

    If your AF is normally a medium to heavy flow, I wouldn't count this spotting as AF, unless you know that clomid can affect it?

    Good luck!

    Thanks Kristin - that certainly is a lot of spotting in your BFP chart. Glad to hear everything is ok with your little one.

    I normally have a light AF which is why I have so much trouble identifying it over spotting. I think it's arrived now though as I have pain and there was more when I went to the loo. My temp was 36.61 but that was 3 hours before I was due to take it (snoring DH prevented further snoozing ).

    Macca - thanks for the baby dust, it's great to hear success stories

    I'll give me doc a ring this morning.

    Thanks everyone

    Kristin - I rang my FS this morning and he said I probably have a problem buidling up a lining (linked to oestrogen and not producing enough of it I think). The clomid this round should fix that as the amount I will take is going to be double from last time so hopefully the spotting will not be around next cycle.

    Fortunately by the time I called him, AF had definitely arrived and I'd now describe it as medium. I have an appointment for a folicle scan booked for 10.15am on Wednesday 4th June which will be my CD10. Fingers crossed

    I was of course secretly holding onto a small grain of hope that the spotting would have resulted in a BFP but I'm glad at least that it turned into AF instead of just vanishing completely. At least now I'm confident I've got my CD1 right.

    Thanks for checking up on me, it's great that everyone is so friendly and helpful on BB, I really appreciate it

    Sorry to hear you got AF Lou Lou, but I have my fingers tightly crossed that this cycle will be it for you
