    So sorry some of you ladies are having a tough time atm

    MM- So sorry AF arrived sweetheart. FWIW, my second cycle i had the exact same thing hun. I started full on bleeding at 10dpo...but at 11pm, so it wasn't counted as CD1. My FS was confused too...clomid is sposed to fix that! I got my BFP the nxt month though, so here's to hoping for next month hun xoxox p.s. what was your progesterone levels?

    Tasha- Huge hugs, O day is approaching!! I will be stalking xx

    M2OSB- Im praying it's not. I hope you O soon, maybe just a little later than normal on clomid? I didn't used to O until CD23-25 without clomid. Fingers crossed for you hun xx

    Gecks- Thankyou hun xx It drags doesn't it, it's not the exciting part of the month! Glad you got a regular cycle though, it's a step towards a BFP! Good luck sweetheart!

    Rai- it shouldn't make too much of a difference hunni. It might make you late by a day maybe. Fingers crossed that you O this weekend, and get BD'ing! xoxoxo

    Mollie- You sexy muma xxx

    thanks everyone: the last 4 clomid cycles i have done have ended 9 or 10 dpo and i have repeatedly asked my fs for progesterone pessaries but he won't give it to me because he believes in "supporting" the pregnancy once he sees a heartbeat, i can't even get close to that point, it is so upsetting to me that he can just say no and thats that. i am seeing another specialist next monday and i know that clinic give progesterone from ovulation, im hoping that makes a difference.

    yas: my progesterone was 19 so it confirmed i ovulated but it wasn't really high enough to support any possible pregnancy *sigh*

    thanks everyone for your hugs, i really needed them today

    mum2onesweetbun: i hope you ovulate soon !

    rai: i hope you are ovulating soon, you are lucky to ovulate so early in your cycle

    tasha: are you expecting to ovulate soon ?

    joeve: thanks for your hugs and the stalking

    i ordered some progesterone cream last cycle, intending on using it for the cycle that just finished to increase my progesterone (it is meant for menopausal women), anyway they told me they posted it two weeks ago so should have arrived in time a few days later, it didn't and i was so disappointed, can you believe it turned up today the day af did, talk about kicking me when im down, sorry girls i'll take my sad self away......

    MM- I have progesterone support during this pg, BUT my OB ordered me to have progesterone support AFTER ovulation. And i would ask for an upped dose of clomid, that level isn't high enough hun, thats what my FS was going to do if i hadn't fallen pg by 3rd cycle. Huge xoxoxo

    thanks yas, i was on a higher dose of clomid for this cycle, my progesterone for the last 3 rounds of clomid have been 29, 14 (50mg clomid) and this time 19 (100mg), thanks for your advice

    Hello girls,

    MM - so sorry about AF arriving, i know what you mean erg a too short cycle, that was exactly my challenge too since you are already taking clomid and increased it and it has not quite done the trick …have you ever considered acupuncture ? it works wonders just a shame that it is on the $ side of things…but maybe you have a health insurance where you may be bale to claim it back ? thinking of you.

    MSOSB - hope the egg is coming along soon so you can get down to business…and you know what if you would have decided to go with the drugs this smooth - you would be equally wondering if you should't have LOL its the beauty of the guessing game of TTC right ?


    Tai - hope the "slip up" of taking it a day late may just do the trick for you, who knows !

    Yas & Mollie - still thinking of you, hope you are well.

    AFM: went to the gym last night to work up a real sweat as it seems the hot flushes are a bit of a side effect from my clomid after all... but i have already taken my last tablet last night so its all good.
    well CD 8 for me today, i have a huge day at work and hope to still have the energy to seduce DH tonight as i will be trying really hard to do the recommended every 2nd day thing from now till CD 18 ...
