    sounds like lots of new cycles starting. I'm probably going to have to primolut an AF since I'm guessing I didn't o, so won't get one. I really have to ring my FS!
    Tammara- I hope little Dylan is bringing you as much joy as you deserve hon. Silly u/s people think they know everything! I'm sure it was a shock, but it sounds like you're excited regardless which is awesome. I was watching this thing on Foxtel about this lady that had like 6 boys and everytime she got pregnant she cried at the u/s when they told her it was another boy. I was literally yelling at the tv "Ungrateful!!!!!". But I guess until you're in our shoes you take it for granted! I'm glad you're going well, and I hope you are coping ok with the sleep deprivation

    Liz & Tasha; onto a new cycle! Liz- it's great that you o'd on your own this month, and tash, I hope the 2nd round is easy for you (and your last!)

    Hi to everyone else. Not much to report here. No symptoms at all, except maybe a hyper sense of smell. No sore bb's, no real niggles or anything. I'm having a relaxing weekned of not worrying (except about writing reports!).
    Enjoy the sunshine Melbourne-ites!

    Hi ladies, im hoping to join this group and get some great advice from you laides.

    Well I have been trying for bub num two now for almost a year. Went to see the fs a few months back and gor perscribed pervera and clomid.

    Anyway I have been delaying taking pervera due to many reasons. On cd 124 (no you have not misread this lol) I thoguht af came and got very excited. I was bleeding and wiping red. However, this stopped and I slept with a clean pad. Yesterday the same thing happened.

    So question is, do I still count it ad cd 1 or I have to wait for full blown bleeding before I can count it as cd 1?

    Thanks in advance

    hi mum2onesweetbun. Is your FS contactable? Maybe you could get him/her to give you a call and advise what to do? SOmetimes if you haven't had a AF for a while it can be all over the place! I hope your AF starts properly so you can get started on your clomid. GL!

    Mum2onesweetbun~ My OB/GYN told me to count any type of bleeding as CD1 onwards. Even if it's only spotting. Hope this helps in some type of way but if you can call your FS that would be great , good luck hun and praying you get your answers soon.

    Thank you ladies. Unfortunately my FS is no help at all. She doesnt take phone calls because she is "TOO BUSY" and i was talking to the nurse on Friday instead.

    Ive been reading up and they said day one is suppose to be full flowing bleed?

    Im so confused, i think i will have to ring her "nurse" again Monday.

    Liz - I posted in the other thread. *Hugs*

    Tasha - GL with this cycle, I hope it is more positive.

    Bec - lol@ still not calling your FS! I am hopeless, in fact I leave messages on the answering machine when the clinic is closed - I am that impatient! They must think I am the patient from hell! I hope you got to enjoy a little of the sunshine this weekend & not spent the whole time writing reports.

    M2OSB - I think you'd better call your clinic or make an appt with the FS. GL

    Hi to everyone else & sorry if I have missed someone.

    AFM - CD 1 today :-( so IUI was unsuccessful & I am facing the reality that we may not proceed anymore. DH says its up to me. I want to keep going but emotionally I am over ttc - ffs it's been 25 months and three m/c. I just don't know what to do.... I don't think the clinic will let me do a cycle this month b/c they will be closed from about the 18th onwards & I need to be monitored. uggg! I don't want to fall pg next yr b/c I am in my sisters wedding & I don't want to be pg as I am the only bridesmaid, so will be doing everything for my sister. Why is this so hard?

    Oh god I feel your pain. At the moment I am cd 73. But before that I got to cd 234 and then I got AF!!

    Hope everything works out.

    AFM - I am seeing my FS tomorrow and going to be speaking to her about taking provera and then starting clomid. I want to get this rollercoaster moving!!

    Sorry for no other persies.. Dont worry though I will hopefully be joining here completely in the next couple of weeks.
    Have a good week everyone

    Hi All,

    I don't seem to be getting the emails, so I merrily go along thinking no one is posting and then come back to check and there are so many things happening, I have lost track of everyone!

    Still no BFP's in here it seems though?? What's with that, surely someone is due!

    Lots of newbies - welcome to you all!! You will find the advice invaluable and the support of these ladies priceless. Somehow knowing you are not alone in your sometimes seemingly crazy pursuit of procreation, makes it all so much easier. There are girls at so many different stages in here, and there is almost always someone that knows how you are feeling at any point, and even if they don't, they all sympathise with you all the same.

    AFM - Appointment at my OB/GYN on Thursday, so hopefully will be off to the FS before the end of the year, or even more hopefully this cycle of Clomid will work and I can go back to the OB/GYN before I even get to the FS! One can only dream!! Not sure if it's the changing weather, but this cycle I seem to be the incredible hulk. I swear sometimes I must have turned in to a big green monster, because my moods swings are insane and I just feel like crap most the time... *sigh*

    Lots of dust to everyone!!

    Thanks ladies!

    I got a blood test done today by my FS nurse just to make sure I am not currently pregnant then i can start Clomid.

    Its so hard to determine when to start it isnt it!??! Ive had bleeding since Friday now but its more spotting than full bleeding so its getting me all confused.

    Waiting for FS's nurse to get back to me with the test results now (highly unlikely im pregnant as i have been POAS everyday! with BFN)

    OMG Tash, I just read your threads and you are in the same situation as me!! AF came on Friday but stopped during the day and only have managed a 50 cent piece of bleed everyday (no bleeds over night)!

    All the best at your GYNO appointment

    ShanShan - Thank you heaps for your tip i think your right it is easier to excercise with someone and to vary your workouts i do get sick of doing the same thing all the time, Thanks

    RhiChiChi - Thanks i do agree with bec and your self you do have to be in the right head space i was about 7 years ago and lost 30kg in 3 months and kept it off for years. Its so easy to lose the plot its so fustrating and so hard to get into that right head space again goodluck. I'm really really sorry IUI was unsuccessful. I understand completly about being over TTC but please please dont give up i know its so dissapointing but it will happen. Yeah i seem to say that alot it just should not be this hard. Lots and Lots of baby dust to you.

    Epayne - Your right we have everything going on with weightloss and TTC it just kind of gets too much sometimes. My mum is usually really supportive she helped me lose the weight before but its easy for her she weighs 50kg. So sorry AF showed up it can be very dissapointing. My hopes and prayers are with you to get pg by xmas.

    Tamara - Congratulations on your little boy what a wonderful suprise even though you had to return all the pink, boys are so amazing i thank god everyday for mine. Congratulations again

    Keli - Not long to go now its so exciting cant wait for the birth announcement. Wishing you an easy fast labour.

    Tash - I agree with nothing2lose i would talk to my FS first. I take mine days 2-6 but my FS has said it did not matter if i started a bit late. Goodluck

    mollie86 - Oh my goodness you poor thing i could'nt even imagine how fustrated you must be. Goodluck with FS today hope you get the provera so then you can start clomid. Hope it all works out.

    AFM - My eldest son graduated high school on Friday it was so sad (pleased i was not the only one crying) i just cant believe or understand where all the years have gone its really sad. Then i think i will be doing it all over again in 14 years with my 3 year old and that thought just makes me feel really old!!!
    HOPE EVERYONE HAS A WONDERFUL WEEK
