LT TTC & Taking Clomid/Metformin #6

Hahahaha! How could I not read this and not post!!???!!!!

That's why they call it the "work bench" lol

But to answer your question, it is definitely possible. I have had 6 cycles on clomid now and I have had some variation on what day I ovulated (between cd16-cd21). So it's definitely possible! My FS says BD for three days after the positive OPK.

Hope this helps

Perhaps you could put in for annual leave??? Or at least a sick day

**Williever** · January 22nd, 2011, 09:10 AM

I'm gonna need more then one day

Girls,
I just wanted to let you all know I lost the baby. Pip was ectopic in the left tube, and I underwent surgery to remove left tube and pregnancy on Wednesday night. I'm feeling pretty shocking both emotionally and physically, but I'll get through it.

All the best girls,
Bec

Bec i am so sorry!!!! Im bawling for you hunni!!!!!!!! Rest up

Im

for you. xoxoxoxo

Oh Williever, I feel your pain! It just gets so robotic. My first cycle of clomid I took it days 5-9 and O'd on cd22 or 23. Every other cycle I have done days 2-6 and it's nearly always O on cd18 and a 32 day cycle.
I don't even know exactly when i O, I just go by the pain and AF arrives 14 days after the pain so I figure it has to be the day with pain.

mum2onesweetbun: do you mean you are cycle day 14 since ovulation ? i hope af stays away for you !

tasha: sorry to hear you got a bfn, hopefully that changes in the next few days !

williever: you poor thing, i'd still keep going until you are sure you have ovulated, i know its difficult though, we are going to start the bding tonight and im not exactly thrilled about it

i think my boobs are starting to feel tender and im day 12 so im hoping i will ovulate earlier than day 24 this cycle !

I was just taking a sneaky look at what everyone was up to. Bec, I am so so so sorry for you honey, you are in my thoughts during this very tough time. Take care of you xx

I have a question also, this has been driving me nuts every cycle!

When do you start cycle day 1? I have light brown spotting for anything up to 5 days before i get any kind of red. And even then sometimes it doesn't even get to red before it's gone again!

So should I start counting from when the spotting comes? (usually 14DPO) or wait until red? (If any)

My Fs says start counting whenever I see any spotting, but it just doesn't seem right IYKWIM

**Marley&Me** · January 22nd, 2011, 07:18 PM

Just ignore this post

**Mum2SweetCs** · January 22nd, 2011, 09:08 PM

Sorry was in a rush. Im currently 14dpo.
Tasha my fs said first day of full blown blood is cd 1.

Do you chart? I find that helps pinpoint o.

**Maruschke** · January 22nd, 2011, 09:13 PM

Tascha, my FS says full flow as well. HTH.

I went back to the clinic yesterday and spoke to the nurse, she let me trigger so long as I accepted that their formal advice was not to TTC this cycle. Well we are anyway, after much googling etc. So today is O day (36 hours post 10 000 miu pregnyl should be 3 am!) and we have BD. I hope we get just one. We are also over the moon today because we finally sold our unit! Woot! Now to buy a house to fit (hopefully) two kids.

Have a great Sat Night

Good luck Maruschke!

M2OSB - I don't want to chart. Ttc is enough on it's own, I worry that if I start charting it will be consume me! Did AF show yet? FX she doesn't.

What if I never actually get FULL brown flow? I could use a panty liner all day!

**Mum2SweetCs** · January 23rd, 2011, 07:17 AM

I'm so confused! I'm 15 dpo with a lp of 13 days. Did another poss with FR and FMU and bfn still. Anyone with charting expertise please have a look

It's a good lucking chart. Are you sure you O'd on the day it said you did? Perhaps you O'd a bit later and that explains the longer LP? Your temps haven't dropped as expected the day before AF.

Best of luck hun

That's what's been keeping my hopes up no temp drop. Maybe I'm relying way too much on ff. I had no other indication of o tbh

**Maruschke** · January 23rd, 2011, 07:54 AM

I meant good looking, not good lucking. Sigh, caffeine required.

**Maruschke** · January 23rd, 2011, 08:03 AM

I've given up on watching temps. I pretty much just use FF now to collect my drugs info and BD info. Its a personal thing... temping each day just makes me obsess (not saying you do, it's just what it does for me) only to discover that the temps aren't super meaningful (other than ovulation, which doesn't matter since I trigger). I am happy to make TTC something we do now around O day rather than all month long as was the case when I was temping.

Hope this turns into a BFP tomorrow!
