Afternoon lovely ladies,

Kris, yes I am with the other ladies, a little confused how you were told that Clomid didn’t work but you ovulated on one side? It is perfectly normal to O on one side. I actually have a blocked left tube and I find that my right ovary compensates for that and ovulates more regularly than the left (only on Clomid) but at least it still works.

N2L, so sorry you didn’t O hun, Mel is right though, at least you O’d, I’m sure it doesn’t feel that way but at least now you know what dose of Clomid you need to take and now you can concentrate on other thinks like temp taking, OPK testing and DTD. Thinking of you hun!

Mel, sorry I have no idea what is going on with your AF, sounds a little bit strange, hopefully the OPK’s will work and you will know exactly when you are O’ing. Fantastic idea about DTD every 36 hours I think. The month that DH and I finally did conceive (after 38months of DTD every second day, cos that’s what we were told to do by everyone) we decided to DTD everyday, and whilst it was not easy I honestly believe it contributed to a BFP, so if you have the stamina (and so does your DH, it can be just as draining for them too) then I say go for it. HUP.

Shan, Yey for O’ing, very exciting! Hey if you do happen to need the lap I highly recommend it as would plenty of other women that have graduated from this thread. So many of us have fallen PG within 3 months of the op, so fx’ed you wont need it but fx’ed that if you do then it will be your answer, IYKWIM!

Bec, GL on your dieting hun. Totally sux that so many of you have to concentrate on dieting an TTC all at the same time, can’t be much fun. You have my full support though. Do you think you could continue to take Clomid whilst doing your diet? Or was that totally against your FS’s rules?

Porsche, if my memory serves me correctly today is BT day? GL hun. How’s the POAS’s going? Getting any darker? Everything’s still crossed hun!

Jules, I totally think you should keep taking Clomid (unless you find the SE’s unbearable), that’s what we did whilst waiting to start IVF, BEST decision ever.

Liz, YIPPEE for ripper follicles, glad to hear your put the workbench to good use. FX’ed this is your month, I have a good feeling about this one for you, not sure why I just do. PS: Happy anniversary, maybe you can conceive a magical baby whilst away, made with LUUUUVE, lol sorry I can be a twat sometimes!

Hint for anyone that is interested. I was a maniac looking for O signs, I took temps, used FF, OPK tests and even checked my cervix. For anyone interested (and not too grossed out) it can take a few months to get used to what you are feeling but I found checking my cervix very helpful, it wasn’t a guessing game in the end, I just KNEW when I was O’ing. If you’re interested I recommend googling how to do it (or let me know and I will post a link), I checked my cervix every morning in the shower, it opens when you are about to ovulate, then closed after woods.

Sorry to those I have missed!
Xxoo
