    Hi girls, happy new year to everyone and heres to 2011 giving us all our longed for and deserved babies!

    crafty-hows the temping/charting going? I was never very good at it- too slack to do it properly! Hope it gives you a picture of whats going on.x

    minniemouse- welcome even though you are probably wishing you didn't have to come here- we are a bit quiet at them moment cos of christmas but it will fire up again soon. How long is your cycle normally? FX for a bfp for you x

    hi matthewsmum-babydust to you for 2011- good luck for this month, hope you get a lucky break x

    Hi to Sunbeam, Porsche, possummagic, damprye, india'smum and alice (if you are stalking from afar)- best wishes for 2011 girls, thanks for your help last year through my ups and downs

    AFM- well I got a pos OPK yesterday so am happy as I feel we have done our best with the BDing this month- its in the hands of fate now! I am enjoying being a normal person for a while actually- not obsessing over ttc- having a drink-etc.

    gosh it is so quiet in here !

    saffy: i thought it was time i moved across here, i didn't ovulate til new years day which was day 24 for me ! i hate having to wait so long into my cycle to ovulate gggrrr anyway sounds like we are both close in our cycles, fingers crossed for both of us !

    craftymummy: i think i read you were doing clomid cycles, are you still doing that ?

    i hope things start to get busier in here although i know it would be best if there didn't have to be people in here at all

    Hi Girls,

    I am still lurking and reading, but not posting much as not much is happening. I had my first appt after the ectopic, the egg was growing on the side of the ectopic, so the doctor told me not to TTC this cycle for fear of another ectopic and schedule an HSG for next month. This is where they push the liquid up your tubes to make sure they are passable. So I am just waiting for the @ so I can schedule this. It is hard not to TTC... Especially that I usually get very clear ovulation symptoms.

    minniemouse - are you taking clomid now?

    I wish you all a happy and very fruitfull 2011.

    hi Luna,

    sorry to hear you went through an ectopic, i know what you mean about it being hard not to ttc, i waited about 5 months after my last miscarriage. i hope you can get on with the hsg soon and start again with cleaned out tubes !

    yeah im doing clomid, this is my 3rd cycle on it, the first ended on day 23 without ovulating, the 2nd was 33 but i only ovulated about day 22 so i started bleeding a few days before af was due, this time around im day 28 and 4dpo, im hanging in there hoping i get a normal luteal phase !

    i know this isn't the assisted conception thread but does anyone know what is the next step after clomid if that doesn't work ? it has worked for me twice before and i said i wouldn't go down the ivf road.......is the next things injections and still dtd ? or do you move onto iui etc ? thanks

    Hi minniemouse- my FS gave us a few options when I tried clomid, either have a laparoscopy ( checking if the tubes are clear like luna described and looking for endometriosis etc) or go staright to IVF. After the laparoscopy apparently you have a better chance of getting UTD naturally cos your tubes have been given a springclean. But if that doesn't work in a few months you go on to ivf anyway. I think because of my age he didn't bother with anything else. I didn't havethe laparoscopy cos I fugured I had gotton pregnant twice already so there was no prob with my tubes and i didn't want to wait any longer to start ivf. ( Meanwhile fast forward 6 months and I'm still not pregnant but thats another story!!)
    Hopefully you don't need to bother with any of this and the clomid does the trick. GL

    Matthewsmum- FX for tww, i'm in it too, have NO confidence at all that I can get pregnant naturally anymore so just killing time until the FET.
