    Hi ShanShan,
    i am on 50mg of clomid, and won't need to go up as i ovulated on it. However, i have lost my repeats prescription in case i need it again! Can't find the bluming thing anywhere!!
    Oh and that totally sucks about the blood tests!! I hate needles and i would have walked out if she couldn't find the vein first try!! *shudder* absolutely hate needles!!

    Keli I started on 50mg so up to 100mg next month. Just starting to wish something would go my way. Isn't helping that I have nausea today.

    Kris the nurse taking the blood is a friend and I actually felt bad for her cause I have dodgy veins. I usually leave with at least 2 holes. You get used to it and luckily needles don't phase me (must be all the blood tests I had as a teenager when they were trying to diagnose the fibromyalgia, lol). I used to donate blood and I am sure they used to shudder when I turned up with my dodgy veins.

    Wow, a new thread and already lots of posts.

    Pumpgirl a huge congrats to you, my fingers are crossed that you have a event free pregnancy.

    Bec, I was sure you were going to be posting a BFP this month. And it is so okay to want to have a baby now, that's want we all want and I think deserve. Like shan said, hopefully having a heavy AF is a good sign for this month. FX'd for you.

    Shan, looks like you are going onto the next step with your journey upping the dosage of clomid. My viens are dodgy as well, I have found if I make sure that I drink lots of water leading up to the test it is alot easier for having BT. Just a little question if you don't mind me asking, do you see Dr Watson at Northwest Private? IKWYM about people asking "when are you having a baby", everyone seems to be asking us and is just so hard not to say, well we are trying, but it just osn't that easy for some people. Hugs to you.

    Miss Kris FX'd that this cycle works, at least you know that you o'd on 50mg. GL for not needing the repeat script.

    Hope, can't say much, cause I have never been pg, but can't you sometimes, have a little bit of brown spotting at the beginning of the pg?? At least you were able to talk to your fs and the spotting stopped for you. FX'd that you have a carefree pg for the rest of it.

    sorry to anyone I have missed, babydust to everyone still DTD and best wishes for those UTD.

    AFM, day 5/10 of provera and already the wierd dreams have started, well not started as I constantly have them, they just seem to get wierder while taking provera. I have had the busiest weekend. We had a BBQ at our place for my b'day so we spent sat cleaning up the downstairs (luckly cause it rained sun) and went shopping for all the food. Sunwas good, as I only had to prepare a few things for lunch and got to relax before everyone came and then enjoy the afternoon with everyone istead of running around. Nothing else to report until AF ariives which should be in approx 15 days.

    GL to everyone

    Hi all,

    Am off for Beta HCG tomorrow, with follow up on Friday and u/s. I know that I am m/c (or have) due to blood loss, lack of pg symptoms amongst other things. So, I will be back to join you lovelies permanently probably next week if I feel up to it.

    Sorry for lack of persies.

    Morning all,

    ShanShan, not sure if you’re read what I’ve written before but both my sister and I found the grumpy mood side effects much much less on 100mg of Clomid than we did on 50mg, not sure why but hope that is the same with you hun. GL for this next round.

    Totally feel for all of you having ppl ask when you’re having a baby, I find it the rudest question ever (clearly cos of what we have been through). In the end I was just blunt straight back to people saying “we are trying and have been for 3 years, but it’s not quite as easy as you’d think, I have some problems”. I figure if ppl are going to ask rude questions then they are bound to get rude answers, maybe I am just a *****, lol! Sorry rant over!

    Liz, happy birthday, sorry we missed it. Hopefully you got to have a few sneaky one’s since you are awaiting AF at the moment. Hope it was a lovely day. You need to change your sign now, lol!

    Oh Rhi, that is just awful hun, I was so hoping that everything will sort itself out. It’s just not fair, this is not even your first mc either is it? Thinking of you and DH during this time, big hugs being sent your way.
