That's terrible poor Xavier. How is he feeling today? Really hope his not in too much pain :(
oh Bec your poor little man. Hey is he going now? Good luck for your scan on Wed hopefully it will be much better than what mine was and then yo can get down and get dirty :dance:
Rai, you aren't out until AF decides to show, so you never know you could have done it just at the right time. You are a very lucky person not to get any side effects.
N2L I so wish that our bodies came with manuals, or at least worked like they are supposed to so that way we wouldn't have to go through all of the emotional crap. You aren't out yet for this cycle and even if you are at least you have a plan of attack (so to speak).
Kristy that was so not what you were wanting to hear, but at least you know what is going on and hoping like anything for you that it will be easily fixed and you won't have to put off TTC for too long.
Hi to everyone else, hope you are travelling well.
Well I am starting to think that DH and I aren't meant to have kids. We went to our appointment this morning and I have no follies at all. So he has upped my injections to 112.5iu a shot and 2 500mg metformin tablets a day. I am going back on monday to have another scan. Also DH and I have had a big talk and as our next step is IVF we have decided that if we aren't UTD by xmas then we are going to have a break and just save our pennies. Sorry bout all the gloom and doom I seem to be posting lately, just not much good seems to be happening.
Babydust and stickyvibes to all
Hi all
Epayne - I also went for my follicle scan yesterday - CD 14 and none either!!! Absolutely gutted... I know my cycle can often be 35 days, give or take a few, but I thought there would have been at least some kind of evidence. We have our Assisted Conception on Friday, so I hope something happens soon, as I am starting to think I have wasted a year taking clomid!
Anyway, love and positive vibes to you all. I read this everyday, but don't usually have time to reply x
Claudette
epayne- I'm so sorry you had no follies. I really hope the scan on monday shows lots of big follies for you. This is so disheartening sometimes please dont think your not meant to have kids I'm sure there is one just wainting for the right time to come to you. It completely ****s me good people who would love a baby so much have such a hard time falling pregnant. Sending you lots of happy and sticky vibes and tones and tones of baby dust.:D
Clamgee- So sorry about you having no follies either. I really hope something happens soon for you too. I know the feeling about wasting time taking clomid but at least you are trying something which is positive just a pain it the butt when it does not work. Are you going to continue on clomid or what is the next step.
Oh Bec, Poor little Xavier. I hope he is feeling ok today and not in too much pain. He really know's how to break a bone when he does doesn't he! Hugs to him and yourself.
Epayne & Clamgee: Sorry to hear that you both had no follies. How disappointing. Just remember that this does not mean that you are not meant to have children. Hopefully the new doses for you Epayne do the job. Clamgee, GL for Friday.
Hi to everyone else. Hope you are all doing well and staying positive. Baby dust to you all.
Liz & Claudette - Just want to echo what the other ladies have said. *Hugs* I remember the FS telling us they go slow, slow with the meds then up them if they need to, so they might be just trying to figure out what dose is right for you. FX
Hi to everyone else
x
Liz & Claudette- I know what you mean! It's so disappointing! hugs guys* Just give it a little time and it'll happen :)
Thanks Jules, Liz, Hope & Rai on your best wishes to Xavi. he pretty good, my little trooper! He isn't in too much pain, which I am amazed at, and I really hope it's not becasue there is nerve damage or something! We have another check on Monday, so hopefully still going well.
AFM: My scan today was not all good, although not all bad. Nothing at all on my right, 1 biggy (not mature enough yet) and 4 smalls in the left. Up my dose to 112 (like you Liz!) and rescan Monday. Although my FS isn't working Monday so she is sending me to the u/s place at melbourne IVF, which also isn't open Monday! So I don't really know what to do. I'm waiting for FS to call me back. I'm feeling a bit niggly so I think I'm coming up for o, but we'll see, I've been wrong so many times before!
Enjoy the rest of the week!
Bec
Thanks everyone for the warm wishes, I think I have just gotten a little overwhelmed with eveything I think. Oh I don't think I have written it down bout I am CD22 for me today.
Bec that is good to hear the Xav is feeling better. Also great news about the follie. For the last week I have been getting niggling cramps and since yesturday having the larger dose it feels like my ovaries are having spasims. I think that is why I was disappointed at the scan, thinking that I was moving forward in the cycle from what I was feeling.
Hope everyone is travelling well and we get some good news on here soon, think everyone needs to hear good things can happen.
Hi all
I agree with you epayne. It's been months since we have had a BFP. I think Porsche was the last one. Unfortunately, good news isnt going to come from me this month. AF is definitely on her way :( I have cramps at the moment :(
I can totally relate to how you feel epayne. I feel the same way. It is good to have youth on your side though (sorry, you are probably sick of hearing that). But there are new processes and technologies being developed all the time at such a rapid rate. By the time you are my age (39) I think there will be a way to fix all fertility problems! Not sure if that helps at all, but keep your chin up and take care :)
Bec- hope you sorted out where to get your scan. I am kind of in the same boat. I was meant to have a scan on the first couple of days of AF (for the endometrial hyperplasia investigations) but because of FS being away on Monday and Cup Day I will now have to wait until next cycle. Very annoying! Good to hear your little boy is on the mend. I have had DD to the doctor this week too. It must be the season for it! Good luck with Monday's check up!
Everyone else, hope you are feeling well and not letting this whole LTTTC thing get you down.
Take care all x
n2l
Hey all,
Sending everyone tons of *hugs*
We definately need another BFP!
Not much to report here - had my first u/s to see how my follicles are coming along and they are about 10mm. She said that they should grow approx 2 mm per day, so it sounds like I am on track. Have to up my dosage to 67 and go back Monday for another u/s. Hoping that the follicles keep growing 2mm or more a day so they will be above 14mm when I go back.....
Hi to everyone else, hope you are all well
Hi everyone,
I am excited to start BD on my first round of clomid. I'm CD 14 today so now is the time to start!. Haven't felt any O pains yet, hopefully in a few days i will. So frustrating not knowing exactly when to BD as it is hard to fit one in all the time!:lol:
Wish me luck:D
And :bluedust: for everyone else!
Tasha- yah! GL with pinpinting o, I hope it doesn't make you wait too long! FX for this round
Jules- Glad things are happening for you! So they would be expecting you to o about Thursday? How are you finding the jabbing? I had a doozy yesterday; huge bruise! Other than that I'm not findinf them too bad?
n2l:bugger about AF, I hope she stays away!
Liz: I'm sure things will start happening, sometimes it just takes time. I wish we had some exacts!
How is everyone else? Porsche, how are things going? All good I hope? Claudette- how was your appointment? Shan? All our lovely graduates? Hope you are all well!
AFM: Well I haven't managed to sort out scans so I'm just gonna wing it and go on Wednesday. If I o before then, well so be it! I'm not sure how those of you who've done the FSH injections found them, but I've found my mood swings are shocking! I am a blubbering, angry, anxious mess, and I am barely managing to deal with even the smallest change in my routine! I feel aweful! I just want to o and get it over with so I can stop the jabs. I was like this when I was pregnant, but at least I knew I was getting a baby out of it! My FS said I may not even o this cycle, and she'll be happy if we get an o in the first 3 cycles! ah, no, I WILL NOT BE WAITING THAT LONG!!!!! Sorry for the rant, I'm hoping I can get on top of things this week!
Enjoy the weekend ladies,
Bec
Bec - Sorry to hear the side effects are really hideous for you. Must be the dosage??? FX you O straight up, bugger three cycles :S
I have no idea when they expect me to O. I assume I have to do the trigger then DH will produce a sample & I will O???? I am confused :/ I am really sick with a virus too, so I hope this won't affect my chances of falling pg...
Hello everyone
Sounds like everyone is having a downer ATM, hopefully someone posts a BFP on here soon (or baby arrival announcement). It sounds like we all need some cheering up.
Bec hope Xavier's appt went well today, maybe he just has a high pain threshold. GL with this cycle and I hope your moods improve soon.
Epayne I know what you mean about feeling like you aren't meant to have kid's, I have been having the same thoughts this month too. One day (hopefully very soon) we will all get our much wanted bubs and all this pain and torture will be worth it.
Claudette maybe they scanned too early? FX'd that it was just too early and you will catch that egg
Hope hello to you too, how are things going with you?
N2L how is everything with you? Did the dreaded AF arrive?
Hello to everyone else out there
AFM - I have had a crappy week and it seems to be continuing unfortunately. Have been feeling yuck for about a week now and the mood swings haven't been real good either. Have been trying to organise my new mobile and am getting constantly stuffed around and I am ready to snap. Was meant to have my new phone today (well I was meant to have it 3 weeks ago but that drama is too long to post), and when I rang to find out when it would be arriving they inform me that it was only picked up today and that it won't be here until Thursday, not much use to me as I won't be here. Currently waiting for someone to call me back, she has until 2:45 before I ring back and ask for her supervisor. Sorry for the rant but I am ready to start throwing things.
I am currently CD 44 and no sign of O'ing or even AF atm. I have no idea what is going on and I am getting very frustrated. Also strating to think that maybe it just isn't meant to happen.
i am off to Port Douglas tomorrow for a conference which should be good (except I will miss DH as he can't come). Will check in but probably won't be able to post. Hope everyone's week improves.
Hi Everyone,
So sorry that I have been missing for so long. I won't attempt to say hello to individuals, as I am so far out of the loop. I stopped getting notifications for some reason, and then I was just having a little break anyway to help me be less crazy! Well so the theory is anyway. I hope that everyone is well? Surely someone has a BFP due! I am beginning to think that they are just a myth!!
Well it turns out that last months AF, was just a light AF, not so sure that I actually ovulated last month though, but thankful that I wasn't stranded in no mans land and got AF anyway. I am in the 2WW of my third and final cycle with the OB/GYN now. I ovulated yesterday - CD18 (a day later than normal, but started my Clomid a day later too this cycle as I forgot the first day!), so now I am just waiting! Had positive OPKs for a couple of days and I could feel the pains yesterday, so lets hope it was a big fat egg! I was also a major cranky cow for the couple of days before and I actually had some CM too, so looks like the hormones are pumping!
I am hoping and praying this month (as always), but especially so because THREE of my friends announced they are pregnant last Friday! I couldn't believe it, all before lunch too and none had any idea the others were pregnant! One of the girls has been trying for 3+ years for #2 and she finally got her BFP, so I couldn't be happier for her. It was a natural cycle this month, but she has been on and off Clomid for a while. One of the others is having #1, but she literally conceived first time they BD'd! Her fiance is in Melbourne at the moment, so they know exactly when they conceived and it was the first time trying for a baby! The third is also having her first, but not sure exactly how long they had been trying, not very long at all though, maybe a few months at most. Why is it soooo easy for some? I always get this nagging feeling that maybe it's natures way of telling me I'm not meant to be a Mum? :(
Hi Ladies
Been a little quiet in here lol.
Mel - I'm so sorry your friends annouced their pregnancies. It's never an easy thing to hear when your actively trying and constantly getting no results. Do they know of your TTC?? You ARE ment to be a Mum. It's just taking a little bit longer than you would like is all. It will happen I know it will. It will happen for you all. It's a sucky journey that's for sure but I truly believe that some higher being has chosen us all for this rocky path because they KNOW we have the strength to keep going. The ones who fall at the drop of a hat don't realise how lucky they are.
Tammara - that baby must be due any day now!!!!!!
Hi ladies
Yes porsche she is very close, we are down in melbourne (clayton) just waiting for her to make an apperance. Ive not really had and signs that she is on the way except yesterda had a really sore back and i think my mucus plug is starting to come out but other than that just waiting. My actual due date is this sunday so any time i guess.
Hope your all doing well :)
Ohh, Good Luck Tammara! Can't wait to hear your birth announcement!
AFM: I don't know what's going on with me, I thought I ovulated Tuesday, but not sure. I can't get into my FS till Monday, but I've got a form for a BT for tomorrow, so I guess I'll get some idea! Even though FS said don't DTD untill I've seen her again, we did a few times to make sure that if I did o we don't miss it completely. May end up with triplets or something...lol
Bec
sounds like hubby has SUPER SPERM bec lol i think i would hve done the same to make sure :)
Hi Ladies,
Its been a while since i have been on here! I was previously stalking the thread but then the laptop got a virus!! *sigh* its all good now though!
So as i said last time clomid was a fail *thumbs down* so we are moving onto the next step.
Have an initial appt with Dr Bedson from Repromed on the 8th Dec. Has anyone on here used/using them?
We had a choice between adelaide and melbourne, however melbourne monash don't do visits to my town where as repromed in adelaide do!
Anyway, even though i haven't taken clomid in a couple of months i find that i am still having hot flushes and a few mini mood swings. Apparently it can stay in your system up to two months after taking the last tablet!
I have a lot of pain in my right ovary today and its making me wonder whats going on down there as i have never ovulated on my own before (like seriously never ever lol)
Hmm that would be it wouldn't it! Getting preg whilst waiting for the doc! :P
I WISH! :)
I also noticed since being off the clomid i am not as irrational, for example i just found out some old friends of mine are pregnant and i was so happy for them, i didn't cry or have a hissy fit or anything! :) *smug smile* so proud of myself *pats on back*
Also DH and I have been getting on so much better as we don't have that pressure of having to perform. I am actually enjoying the break before we move onto injections. Hopefully looking at starting them in march / april next year. But first, we have to save some money.
Hope you are all well, sorry for the no persies as its way too far back to find where i was up to! Lol! :)
Hi Ladies,
Hope everyone is doing well. I can't often read everybody's posts because my internet is wireless (no land line!) and it's really unreliable sometimes :(
I need some help actually, this is my first round of clomid and i am Day 21. for the past 2 days i have had really uncomfortable pains in my right ovary and some in the middle. The pains have mainly been at night and always worse in the morning (especially after i pee) Is it possible to ovulate this late? I took clomid from days 5-9 and it just seems too late to be ovulating. Is this normal with clomid? I'm getting paranoid that something is wrong! I had my Day 21 BT today so i can't call my Gyno till Monday to check if i have ovulated this cycle.
Any help much appreciated :)
Hi Tasha,
It sounds like it is ovulation pain to me. It definitely is not too late to ovulate. I didnt ovulate until cd21/22 my first round. I know a lot of girls here on clomid ovulate much later. So I wouldnt panic if I were you (easier said than done though!). Are you having scans to check follicle size or having trigger injections? Or are you relying on HPKs/charting, etc as well as the blood test?
Keep well :) and dont worry too much. I am sure it is fine :)
n2l
Thanks n2l,
Oh thank goodness! The pain is gone tonight, but had pains this morning. Do i still have a chance? we didn't DTD last two nights because i thought it was too late! No trigger shots and no scans have been ordered for me and OPK's always read positive so I'm totally in the dark about when (and if) i ovulate, always have been :(
Can you ever have pains and not ovulate?
At least i know for next cycle :)
I guess it's possible to have pains and not be ovulating as they may have nothing to do with reproduction (eg. you can get pain in that area which is muscular or referred pain, etc, etc). I would still put my money on the fact it was ovulation pain.
If I were you I would ask to have scans/trigger shots to determine when you are going to ovulate, especially as the HPKs dont work for you.
As for whether you are still in with a chance, they say the best thing is to DTD for three days (before, during and after) around ovulation for your best shot. If you are not sure when you ovulate you should DTD every second day over the second half of your cycle.
That said, "good" sperm can live inside you for five days so you never know...
Good luck :)
n2l
I will ask for scans next time. Af is due in about 2 weeks (i think judging on my last 2 cycles) When it comes they told me to call and make an appointment for after day 21 to discuss my Bt results. In the meantime i can call on Monday to see if i did ovulate this cycle (i can't wait!!) Unfortunately we havn't covered all bases this month though. The stress is just getting too us and causing arguments:(
Thanks again!
I have not been on for a while my computer is not working. Its still not working but am using DS1 lap top my computer has been not working since the begining of last week and my wonderful DS1 only just told me this morning his lap top is working then had an argument cause he did not want to lend it to me even though his at school not using it. Teenages are wonderful sometimes.
I will have to go back and read over everyones to find out where everyone is at sorry.
AFM: I got AF last wednesday but i did expect it this month. It's truely like a miracle has occured my DP would just not even discuss trying IUI or IVF he was just so stubborn but finally got him to listen and i told him we were doing IUI in Jan and Feb and if that has not worked IVF in March and April so i'm feeling alot more positive i can see a light at the end of the tunnel. Has anyone heard any good things about city fertility Robina? Also do you think its worth trying sharkeys and accupunture?? Thanks for listening to me ramble on and for any advice you can give me:D
Hello everybody! I have been trying to concieve no 2 for about 2 and abit years. I have actually concieved 3 times in that period, but sadly lost them.
So i have just started chlomid this month on days 2-7. I normally don't ovulate until day 22-23 of my cylce, which is normally 34-38 days, but what do you know, im on day 15 today and yesterday i got a pos OPK!!!! :D
I start progesterone tonight, as i have a really low progesterone which my OB thinks is causing my miscarriages.
GL eveyone, :bluedust::pink-babydust: to all!!!
ps the TTW is going to kill me.....
Yas,
How exciting for you! :D Clomid is good for speeding things up, i used to have really long cycles before. Everything used to be such a slow process. Have you had any side effects yet? I haven't had any, except maybe a bit moody (or so my DH says!)
Just try to keep yourself busy these two weeks, I know, easier said than done right?
Fingers crossed for you! :)
tasha- no, no side effects yet! :D the only thing i have had is Ovulation pain, and a little spotting in EWCM. This is unusual for me, i have only had it this month and last month. this is only my 2nd cycle since my m/c, could have something to do with it??
and golly gosh, 100+ day cycles? you must be so happy on chlomid! FX for you that you have O'd! (and NOT ) missed it!
praying for us to all have :bfp: this month!
You can get spotting when you ovulate so I'm guessing that's what that was. It's a good indicator that ovulation happened. My cycles started to shorten naturally before i started clomid, but i don't think I was ovulating all the time. At least now with the clomid i will be able to know if I am ovulating. Thats great that your not having any side effects, are you taking them at night? all the ladies here told me to take them at night to avoid the hot flushes, and it works.
I'm pretty sure I'm out of the game this month, but now i know what my body is telling me I'll definitely have a good crack at it next cycle!!
Make sure you keep us posted after the TWW :)
Hi all, I start clomid in a week so just popping my head in to say Hi :). Are you all managed by FS or Ob/gby or just a GP? My GP is managing my first clomid cycle ,is that a bit weird? FX for you all, I'm just going to lurk until I am on it for real...
Hi all
Welcome to the thread Princess Xanthe and Yas! I am sure you will find everyone here helpful and friendly...That's certainly been my experience!
I am currently on my fourth round of clomid and, for some reason, I am finding I am really in a *****y PMS-type mood. EVERYTHING is annoying me and I am very impatient and intolerant. Those that know and love me might say I am always like that but I feel much worse than I normally do! Not sure why...
To answer your question PX, my clomid rounds are being monitored by a FS (she is a reproductive endocrinologist with MIVF). GPs wouldnt prescribe it for me.
I am CD12 today. DP and I have a review appointment with the FS tomorrow morning to decide where to from here. I dont think we are bothering with IUI and we will just go straight to IVF. I think it will be for the best seeing as the biological clock is ticking.
Anyway, hope everyone else is well. Sorry for no persies. Just knackered. Apparently being a ***** is very tiring LOL!
take care x
n2l
Hi N2L,
Don't worry, I think it might be something in the air as I am exactly the same! Cranky, irritable cow one minute, sulky & sooky the next and very little inbetween!!
Tasha- no, i took them in the morning. It really sucks that u missed this month- next month? :D
PX- My GP sent me to my OB to get my pescription, but he will monitor me throughout the month. I have to go back to my OB to get my prescriptions though. GL :D
N2L- thanks for the welcome! I swear by BB now, i thank god every day that my friend who has been a member for ages told me about it after my last m/c!
AFM- I had alot of pain in my tummy last night, no idea what it was! maybe O pain?? anyway, if by some miracle i get a BFP after this TWW (:crossfingers: ) where do i post it? 12 days till testing aaaarrgh!!!!
Hi Ladies,
Sorry I haven't been on for a while, rest assured I check in to see how your all progressing. Every time I see a new post, I jump on and see if it is a BFP.
Yas, PX, Tasha - welcome! Starting on clomid is such a daunting and overwhelming feeling, there is so much emotion from frustration to hope that runs through your veins when you start off. Add to the mix the side effects that drive you insane. From my own perspective I found this forum and the group of girls who post here to be a godsend. Everyone is so lovely and supportive and really helpful. It's important to be able to vent and share your feelings with people who truely understand. There is no else out there that will understand as well as these lovely ladies. To give you hope I got my BFP after my second cycle on clomid, I was TTC for 12 months prior to this. I hope your journeys are as successful as mine! Good luck xx
N2L & WBM - I was a raging maniac on clomid, it actually reminded me of when I was on the pill Diane. One minute I was nice, the next minute a total b*tch, the next I was crying like a total baby. Clomid does this to you. I remember on my last cycle, DH and I had a massive fight about me going to Melbourne for his friends fiance's hens. We fought all morning and then we went to the movies with a friend of ours, and spent the whole time scowling at each other (our poor friend). It did settle down for me when I got my bfp - so something to look forward to. How are you guys going with other SE. N2L, how did you go with your specialist apt. Will be good for you to have a next steps action plan, although I hope you don't have to use it and you get your BFP this cycle.
Kris - was good to see you pop your head in and say hello, I have been thinking about you and wondering how your going. I hope that your next steps are succesful, but I am pleased to hear you are being kind to yourself and giving yourself a break. I know how much you want this. It will happen hun!
Bec - How are you going? How is your DS? You & Jules are always on my mind and I always jump on when I see you two have posted in hope that I see your BFP post. How is your weightloss going? I had a little giggle at your post about DTD and thought that would be murphy's law if you ended up with triplets!! Would be exciting for you though. How long have you got to wait now before you can test?
Liz & Clamage - I was sorry to hear that you both had no follies :( that must have been devastating. Liz, I know it feels like you aren't "meant" to have children, but believe me that isn't true. I honestly think that this all happens for a reason. For me, I was feeling really down about it, but when it happened looking back on it now the timing was perfect and everything fell into place it was like it was all meant to be. You will be a great mumma and this will eventually be behind you and it will just feel like a bad nightmare. Hang in there sweetie.
Jules - sounds like your progressing well, when is does your TWW commence? GL xxx
Kelli, Tammara, Hope, Porsche - How are you lovely ladies going? Kelli, haven't heard from you in ages. Tamara - I can't wait to hear how you go with the birth. Hope - I hope those two little bubbas are thriving (do you know what you are having, you must have had your Morph scan by now).
Shan - How are you doing darling? How did you go with your resistance training program?
AFM - I am well, I am 20 wks on Saturday, am already pretty big so who know what I will be like at the end! Take care ladies and I am hoping that you all get your christmas wishes of BFP's.
HI guys,
Sorry I haven't been in for ages! I just have so much on my plate at the moment. I won't attempt to catch up, becasue I don't know where you all are in your cycle. Welcome to the newcomers, I hope you all have a short and sweet journey!
AFM: Well after all the hoo haa with missed scans and the like I'm not sure what is happening with me. I think I ovulated last Mon/Tue, but who knows. I got a blood test Monday to see if I did, I'm just waiting for the results. I think nothing is happening, and it'll just have to induce an AF. I'm also sick with the flu, so I'm all over the place.
I will be in more often I promise!
Bec

Hey all,
Hope everyone is well, sorry I haven't been on posting - I have been stalking as such then run out of time to post! lol
Welcome to the thread Princess Xanthe and Yas, you'll find tons of information & support here :)
Tasha - Starting Clomid is a bit suck it see unfortunately :S It is hard to gauge what is going on without monitoring. I only had bloods taken on CD21 to confirm I had O'ed, which showed I did but I had no luck on Clomid, so that is why I am doing IUI (I just hand around here cos the IUI thread is soooo quiet plus I love all the gals here!)
The side effects I had on Clomid were insomnia, hot flushes & the really bad emotional stuff - I was particularly prone to 'losing it' at the drop of a hat :/
Pumpgirl - Glad to hear all is progressing well for you, 20 weeks has flown by :)
Gosh, I have just realised how far back I have to go for perssies.... crickey time flies
I will just post hellos to Tammara (Where is that baby!?), Kris, Liz, Bec, Claudette, N2L, WBM, Keli, Jope, Porsche & Shan plus any lurkers or anyone I have missed. Phew, there are alot of us :)
AFM -Tomorrow I get a blood test to see if I have ovulated and if so, back on the 24th for pg test.... I hate the tww :/
Hi all
Havent got much time for a post but thought I would stick my head in and give an update re: our review appointment with the FS yesterday. DP did an andrology test and the results were really good so that is a bit of a relief. We have booked in to start IVF in February (antagonist and ICSI) so that's a pretty big step. In the meantime, I will continue with clomid. The big surprise when I was there I had a scan to check follicles. Although I was only CD13 I had a 20mm follie on my right ovary. In a nutshell, this means my follies are getting bigger earlier. I am about to surge (according to HPK) so it will be a weekend of BD-ing for us ; - )
Anyway, just a quick update - as I said.
Write more later (or tomorrow)
wishing everyone well x
n2l
Hi guys
Just a quick question. What are the se of primolut? Just wondering what I have to look forward to because the dr prescribed 10 days of it at my appt today
Hi All,
Well I need some help (as usual)! Anyone have LPD? I realised that the two months that I have now ovulated, my period is coming way too early! The first month, my GP told me I probably just ovulated twice, once earlier and then the time I picked it up with OPK+ (which was a nice thought), but I don't think that is the case and the same thing happened this month. I got AF last night, and I was only about 10 DPO, maybe 11. It was exactly the same the last month I ovulated 10/11 DPO. I realise this is treatable, but I think it has highlighted the need for more a more hands on approach with blood tests/follie scans etc. I guess that's what I find frustrating about doctors. They love to give you some advice and a prescription and send you away for a few months and hope you don't come back! I have my next appointment with the OB/GYN in two weeks, and he said he would refer me onto a FS is I wasn't pregnant by then, and now I am definitely going to pushing for it!
I read too, if the LPD is related to a the Coprus Luteum, that a higher dose of Clomid may actually improve the follicle and there fore CL quality and fix the LPD? Has anyone here had success with lengthening their lutuel phase with Clomid? I am only on 50mg, thinking that maybe it's enough to get me ovulating, but not enough for good quality egg formation...?
