    Hi Girls, Its really quiet in here hope everyone is well. I'm in my 2ww and very fustrated wish someone would invent a test to do 2DPO to tell if you were pg at least then you would not imagine every symptom under the sun then realise its all in your head lol.

    I'm still here. 11 DPO and BFN. Wondering also how much longer my FS will allow me to take clomid.

    maruschke - how long have you been on clomid for? I conceived DS2 on my first round but this time I've been on it with breaks in between about 15 months but have heard it's not as effective after a certain amount of time. When I finally did fall pg in dec it was naturally so go figure. What are you going to do if your fs won't give you more clomid any plans?

    This is cycle 4 about to end now. If it doesn't work I guess I go onto injectables and have a good cry . What are your plans? I heard I wasn't allowed more than 6 cycles but they think if it hasn't worked by 3 cycles it's unlikely to be successful anyway. Ugh.

    Are you going to do injectables than go home and BD or IUI. I would love to try injectables cause clomid is just not working

    Moving onto IUI with injects I think. We found a new FS and his out of pocket costs for an IUI is $170 plus drugs. Pretty good! So I guess we will try 3 cycles of that before thinking about IVF.How about yourself?

    I was really hoping not to have to think about this but clomid is just not working.

    maruschke - That's fantastic $170 for IUI great. DP had his SA done and all was good so we were going to do IUI then if that did not work IVF. But DP has changed his mind (dont think i can say what i think and not get into trouble) and he will now not do IVF and is only thinking about IUI so not very happy. I can honestly say not sure what i'm going to do now maybe try to convince my FS to let me do injectables then go home to BD but my FS was not keen to let me do injectables. Men honestly who needs them lol.
