    Hi rai, you may still O without clomid. They say it stays in your system for a while. I would still look out for O signs and give it a go

    Well for the last couple of hours I have had O pains. Not as bad, but definitely there. I don't understand what's going on, since clomid every cycle has been pretty consistent. I have a 32 day cycle, I O on CD18 and have pains that day, then 2 days later I have lots of creamy cm for a few days. But this is CD21 for me, I already had creamy cm yesterday so why am I having pain today???

    So confused! it will be good if I am ovulating late because then we can BD tonight.
    Anyone else had this problem??

    Tasha, last cycle i ovulated CD25. That totally shocked me too as i thought clomid would have regulated my period.

    Rai - DONT GIVE UP!! This cycle I went el naturale without clomid and I think i still ovulated! so keep trying hun!

    Bec - thinking of you as well

    Mollie - I use temping and the clearblue fertility monitor to determine ovulation.

    Minimouse - yeh it is so frustrating that i dont get monitoring but seriously i cannot afford $190 to visit my FS anymore (I only get like 60 back).

    BABY DUSTTTTT TO EVERYONE!

    P.S if anyone is interested here is my cycle this month 2c22e4 Ovulation Charts

    They were definitely O pains, just can't explain the creamy CM the day before. I was looking forward to not having to stress this cycle with no chance at all, but now I guess I will have to! And it could be all for nothing if the pains just came late!

    Actually, I just called my FS, my progesterone levels were only 9, BUT I had my BT in the morning and later that night the pains started. So i would definitely say it was late O.

    mollie: did you start your blood test today ?

    tasha: i know what you mean about looking forward to not having to analyse every symptom, oh well at least you are in with a chance now !

    mum2onesweetbun: im pleased to hear you ovulated so late in your cycle too, i was thinking i was the only one who ovulated so late !


    afm: day 7 and nothing to report, waiting waiting to ovulate

    Tasha.. Yup BT's are like that every cycle.. first one today.

    Minnie - Day 8 BT, and levels are looking good.. or so I am told.. Another BT on saturday.

    afm. Nothing really to report, just the fun that is taking place with the BTs. FS thinks I will ovulate earlier then cd16 this time. So see how I go... Im just taking it one day, one BT at a time.. and letting Mother Nature run her course.

    Hope you are all well...

    Mollie, I hate blood tests! I have "jelly/curly" veins all the nurses tell me so it makes it hard to get a good one. Quite often they have to try both arms. Lucky I only have CD21 BT's. I couldn't imagine having so many!

    AFM, ovulated on CD21 this cycle instead of CD18. We BD only once on CD21 so there's a slight chance I guess 4DPO today and I feel absolutely nothing. Wondering why my cycle was messed up this time. My FS said I if I suspect that I ovulate late again I can have my BT a few days later.

    Does anyone know how fast your progesterone levels rise before you ovulate? My levels were 9 at about 11am and at about 2pm that same day the pains started and my levels are usually very high 3DPO

    Good luck to eveyone
