    Keli- glad it's a healthy bub, twins or no!
    Nelly- with my scans if I was taking too long to ovulate I was given the trigger shot to make me ovulate. My FS was of the opinion waste not, want not! Can you ring your FS? Maybe you can ask over the phone why you haven't ovulated?
    Tammara- play went quite well thanks! I even remember most of my lines...
    Night night girls,

    Thanks for that Bec,

    I am now on day 22 of what the FS thought would be a 35 day cycle. So assuming it normally takes 2 weeks for AF to come after ovulation I should have ovulated by yesterday. Yesterday was exactly a week from when the FS said I would ovulate in the following week. Does all that make sense? Even I got a little confused with what I was saying. Anyway how long would you wait to call the dr? I mean I can't call him now until Monday anyway. Or would you leave it a bit longer?

    Hi everyone, sorry I have been MIA. I either have gastro or am having horrible side effects from the concotions the Naturopath has given me. I am still not well but am sick of lying around doing nothing! And tyo top it off AF showed today, 1 day early! I knew she would show this month but thought late cos I stopped Clomid. Gosh my body is confusing sometimes, but anyway at least she will leave mid week, in time for my DH b'day & our night in the City!

    Bec - Yeah, the taste of the herbs is awful & one time I didn't mix some of the powdered stuff in properly & it came back up (sorry if TMI)..... I just chug some juice afterwards and that helps get rid of the taste. Your FS sounds like you are just another number.. which was the same for my gf but luckily she fell pg on one cycle of IVF. I think a change sounds good. That bruise sure sounds nasty, I hope it settles down soon. GL for your scan on Wednesday. Can you jab yourself elsewhere so it can heal?
    What was your play about?

    Porsche - How are you going? Caved & tested yet? lol

    Tammara - It is truly awful what you are going through atm. I hope the bleeding subsides and stops. I know my cousin had bleeding on & off until about 16 weeks and she has a healthy little girl.

    Keli - Great news about your scan!

    Nelly - sorry n advice for you, just big hugs. I would call on Monday to see if you O.

    Hi to all the lurkers!

    Hi Ladies

    Tammara - Yay on the scan results. I knew they would be fine. It's still scarey when that happens.

    Rhichichi - Lol yes I did cave and I tested this morning being 9DPO. It was a BFN. Which is what I expected really. Dissapointing but I didn't have my hopes up. I think I've convinced DH to do IUI when AF comes instead of the stupid clomid. I'll ring Dr De Ambrosis's rooms on Monday and ask about the meds and when I have to start them? I have ths scripts I just can't read his writting. And I forget when he said to start them.

    Bec- Yay on remembering your lines. I think that's pretty important lol. I wouldn't have the courage to get up in front of people like that.

    Hi girls! Hope everyone had a lovely relaxing weekend.

    nelly- ring your FS tomorrow I reckon. My cycles are about 35 days too, usually, and I often don't ovulate untill day 21-23, so maybe you'll ovulate by yourself in a day or two. Do you get symptoms?

    Porsche- Do you have to change meds for IUI? I don't know much about that one sorry. Hope your convince DH! BTW- I forgot some lines last night in our second show! But it still went well. I actually enjoy being on stage as a different character, takes my mind off all the TTC stuff.

    Rhi- I will be changing FS if I don't fall pg this month. I am a bit sick of the philosophy of "here's your script, see you later"! Bruise is clearing up and I haven't managed to do it again since, thank goodness! I hope you are feeling better and the herbs are staying down. I used to chase it down with some cough medicine to take the taste away...probably not the best thing to do but I would have thrown up otherwise!

    AFM- well a nice surprise today: I ovulated! Sorry for TMI but EWCM gave it away (sorry!). So much for follie scans, although she couldn't find my left ovary, so maybe it was hiding on purpose so I could have a nice surprise. Now I'm worried because I assumed nothing would happen untill after my scan on Wednesday so now we're behind on our DTDing! Might have missed our chance...lol The good news is I won't have to take the gonal injections anymore, but now onto the Clexane injections, yah!

    Anyway, hi to everyone, especially those who might be watching and not posting (love to hear from you)

    Hi Ladies

    Well it's definately a BFN. Did another HPT this morning and there is no second line there. Oh well not to worry. Just waiting for AF not so we can start IUI.


    Bec - Yes I have to change meds. I have to take 2 different ones but I can't remember what they are. I think letrozol is one and I think the other is metformin but I can't be sure. I'll give QFG a call today because I forget when I have to start to take them and Dr Waz has shocking hand writing. We'll have to go in to QFG on Thursday to fill the script and DH has to give them a semen sample. He was supposed to do it back in Feb but we got pregnant so he didn't need to lol. How things change. Normally i would get the script filled closer to home but because his hand writing is sooo bad it was recomended by the staff at QFG to have it filled at the pharmacy there as they have experience reading the scripts.

    Yay for O! Get BDing! Gosh if we didn't know our bodies so well we could just miss O time. Good luck.

    Keli, MezMoz & Tammara Hope all is well. Any updates?
