Rhi - Hoping and praying AF does not show. Good luck and wishing you all the best with taking a break, and i agree with bec hopefully you will conceive naturally and wont have to do IVF.

Keli - Congrats on your beauitiful little girl. What a wonderful christmas you will have.

AFM - AF due tomorrow i know she is going to show so not happy. I had to change my appointment so am now seeing FS on the 7th Jan and will be doing IUI for my Jan AF in Feb if that makes sence. Got to go wish you all had a great christmas.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVRYONE, hope you all had a great day.

I just wanted to ask a quick question. Has anyone else experienced light / short AF whilst taking clomid? Last cycle i barely had any red, mostly brown, and only for about 3 days then gone. This cycle it's the same, but had one day of almost all red, little bit brown, now it's gone again after 3 days. It's also really light, no need for a tampon (barely a liner!) I tested 14dpo BFN, then Af started at 16dpo so I'm pretty sure I'm not pregnant.

I also had progesterone level of 203 on my day21 BT, so thought i would have had a decent Af this cycle. Anyone know why? I worry that my lining is not thick enough

Tasha - Yes i have really light and short AF on clomid. What you had sounds like mine only think mine was 2 days. Really sorry i have no idea about the progesterone or lining thickness i know my FS checked my lining thickness not long ago but honestly not sure about it. Sorry AF arrived :-((

[Marley&Me]

Thanks rai,
Good to know I'm not alone. If your lining is ok and you have short light AF then hopefully mine will be too. Bit of a bummer AF came, but oh well next month i guess

Hi rai and Tasha,
I also have a really light AF on clomid. It might be worth mentioning it to your FS. Check them to check your lining (they will do this anyway if you have follie scans).

Thanks Becnxavi, I have no scheduled appointment with FS. Wont I need to get referrals from him so they can do the scans? Then I would have to make an appointment (and pay $80!) Or can they organise it over the phone?
I'd really like to know whats going on in there.

Tasha - Once you see your FS they should be able to do the scan in there room. Yes you will have to pay extra for the scan not sure how much i know my app, scan, and injection cost around $150 but i get around $90 back from medicare but there all different so not sure about your FS. The scans dont hurt at all and its good to see whats happening in there and its great to see how many follies you have and there size and to check the lining. Good Luck :-))

[becnxavi]

tasha- I just ring my FS when it's coming up to possible ovulation (about CD12 ish). My scans cost about $35 on top of my appoinment cost. If you already have a referrel to your FS it lasts a year so you shouldn't need another one. It is your right as a patient to gte information or another appointment if you need one. But my old FS would ring me back if I rang the receptionist and asked him to, and that is free! He might want to see you though. Don't stress there are things you can take that will help. HTH

AFM: 4 more days till testing. Still extremely sore BB's, nausea, tired, although most of grumpy me is gone and I'm on to weepy, which is normal before AF comes along. I not really feeling it, to be honest. I think AF might be here on Saturday But it ain't over till it's over I suppose. Ordinaerily I would be testing already (POAS-aholic, I am), but the pregnyl booster on SUnday would still be in my system and I don't know that I could deal with a false positive!

I hope everyone's ok, and busy enjoying holidays!

Bec

Becnxavi- How exciting for you! Good luck! Hope AF doesn't show on Saturday
I will ring my FS before O day and see what he says. I can call him any time. Thanks again.

new symptom- I can't stop crying! I've been teary all day! My husband now officially thinks I'm a psycho after walking into the loungeroom to find me blubbering over a tv show about babies...

Thanks rai, didn't see your post earlier. I will just call him and ask how we go about it and what cost.
