LT TTC & taking Clomid/Metformin #3

[Hope!]

lisi_lou85: Q - is AF now in full swing for you? I am asking this cause you said that you have started cycle 3 of clomid. If AF is now here properly it can be normal to get a couple of on off days before it starts (at least I think it is normal as I sometimes got this). If AF is not here yet, I cant really help as I do not understand the taking Clomid while there is no AF. I know some people do it though. Another Q - this is just for curiosity, have you POAS at all lately?

Hope just a BIG CONGRATULATIONS!

Tammara Wow a little princess. Congrats.

BEC!! We are TWW buddies! lol! My FF chart thinks i ovulated on Saturday, but i am sure i ovulated earlier then that!

Congrats on a little girl Tammara!!

Just a question, have you ladies ever heard of the chinese lunar calander baby predictor? It goes by your age and what month you conceived as to what you will have. I thought it was a crock buuuuut i have done all my brother and sisters any myself and my friend babies and its been right!
It has me intrigued!

[Hope!]

Nope sorry miss kris, havent heard of that. Sounds interesting though. WHere did you find that.

[miss kris]

my friend found it, and did it for her little girl and it was correct lol
you can google it and it comes up with it.

[Hope!]

lol, I had a go and one said girl and the other said boy

Hope - Congratulations on your BFP, awesome news and gives the rest of us hope :-) FX for a sticky one!!

Tammara - Great news on a little girl, little girls are so much fun, best of luck for the rest of your pregnancy, hope it goes quickly and smoothly

Miss Kris - Try not to stress hun, if you have been DTD you should be absolutely fine, unfortunately everything else is out of our control... Hopefully your BT comes back with a strong positive of an O

LisiLou - Sorry hun, I haven't had that situation either, probably best to speak with your FS or Gyno... It seems like from reading these forums the norm is that there is no normal... Everyone seems to have very different cycles??

Bec - Sorry to hear about your emotions hun, I know what it is like.. I really hope it settles down for you really soon, as for the EWCM do you always get it? I got it last month but haven't had it this month?? :-( I agree, good to be busy busy busy and focus on something else... It is hard when you are solely focused on all the little niggles (that's what I did last month)

Shan Shan - How are you going? Have the symptoms settled down yet? I hope it hasn't been too horrid this month

AFM - CD17, haven't had an EWCM this month like I did last month, which is a bit worrying :-( I was cramping at the back end of last week though... I don't chart nor did I get around to doing the OPK so have no idea if I have O'd... And to make it worse I picked up a gastro virus yesterday so DTD has been put on hold so who knows if this month is a write off :-( I am hoping to be 100% tomorrow so we can DTD then just in case... Otherwise all symptoms seem to have gone, really not feeling like this is going to be the month...

AF never came back just went for almost 2 days but the 2nd day very light... weird.. havent done poas yet but maybe do one later tonight... I just feel like crap and i have had a upset stomach for 11 days now mostly at night

Hmmm, not too sure if I can help you out there. Have never had that happen before. I've had it happen just before AF arrives but not just that alone. Was AF actually due than? Like epayne said, everyone's cycles are different. I think if you are really concerned about it you should discuss it with your GP/Gyno/OB/FS.

GL with the POAS if you decide to do it.

Hi girls!
Tammara that is lovely news! A baby girl. I would love a girl, but I'd be happy with either to keep DS company! Enjoy shopping for all things girly.
Liz- just wondering if you kept testing? i know my lines get progressively darker, but I always get two lines in varying darkness. I think that to be sure you ovulated, the 2nd line needs to be as dark or darker than the test line. Glad sorting your house out kept you busy. I love rearranging too!
Pumpgirl- I do always get EWCM, but I must admit this month it was less. That being said I think I get a heap of it (Sorry TMI) before I ovulate, and then it kind of tapers off. I guess we're all different. Sorry I can't be more help.
Kris- I have done that chines predictor thing and it seems quite accurate! I found one on one of the due date calculator sites I used.
Lisi-lou- I hope you managed to work out what was happening with AF. Mine is usually pretty much the same. You might want to get your doc to check that your lining is growing enough, becasue a thin lining can mean a short, light AF, and not as much chance of implantation. I don't mean to worry you, but if this AF is unusal it's worth checking.
Hope & Ahurani- Been to the docs yet? Can't wait to hear how you're doing!
Porsche & Rhi- how's it going? Where you up to now?
Keli, Tammara, Mez- Hope you all comtinue to be doing well.
AFM: We'll I feel aweful. I've managed to pick up a throat infection and it hurts a lot! on a brighter note, lack of EWCM seems to indicate that I've o'd, so at least I won't been required to DTD tonight! No major signs here. Still a bit of reflux, and my skin is AWEFUL! pimples! I'm 30 years old and I'm getting pimples!! Probably the change in the weather (we actually saw the sun for a few days!).
Anywho, I'm off to bed. Hopefully a good nights sleep will mean I can still go to work tomorrow.
Yah for the happy vibes in here!
Bec
