Just thought I’d pop in for a bit of a whinge. A girl at my work yesterday announced she’s 9 weeks pregnant, she’s 22yo and got married 7 weeks ago. The first time they had unprotected sex was on their wedding night, and surprise…they’re UTD. Seriously????? What is the deal with that. Arrrrrrh!!!!! Sorry just having a bit of a moment. I just keep trying to tell myself that I will be a better, more understanding person because of what I have been through and I know that if DH and I can get through this struggle then we can make it through anything.
Anyway, enough of that. AFM – Took day 5 of Clomid last night so am now starting OPK’s and will hopefully ovulate in the next week and a half. I have always been told not to DTD everyday but to do it every second day. But you know what? That hasn’t worked for the past year so DH and I have decided to DTD everyday from day 12 until I O. Fingers crossed all that sperm will get into just one little egg.
Is anyone still on there 2WW? Or are we all into our new cycles now?
My thoughts are with you all on this amazing struggle.

That just plain sucks! I'm happy for her that she doesn't have to go through what we are/have but for pete's sake, why is it soooo easy for some and not the rest of us?!
I start Clomid tonight. We are taking a similar approach to you & DH- not DTD every second day... Again, it hasn't worked for the past 5 cycles, so why would it for this one?! I am going to use OPK's too and then go for it! Most people not on Clomid use OPK's and have success!
Anyway, better go and do some housework or something.....
Yes totally sucks I know. Whilst I would never wish this journey upon anyone I also don’t like having it shoved in my face how easily some people get preggas. I hate it when people say “All I have to do is lie down and I’m pregnant”. Oh well, I’ll cheer up and stop being such a grouch soon.
Wow so you’re starting Clomid tonight? That must mean that we are very close in our cycles. GL I hope you don’t have too many side effect this round. And yes I agree DTD everyday sounds like fun for us too. I have a few friends that have had success on OPK’s so I’ve been using them for the past few months also, they’re just hard read that’s all.
