    melzi: my luteal phase was normal until i had the miscarriages but since then it has been 9 or 10 days every cycle and unfortunately clomid hasn't helped that at all, this cycle i have progesterone to use from ovulation in the hope that helps
    Minniemouse - I hope the Progesterone support from Ovulation helps, praying you get your BFP very soon! And a nice sticky bubs at that!


    Well I just got my day21 (which I did on day24) progesterone results, 24.5. What a difference to the last 4 cycles being 180+. So I did ovulate, but I still don't know when as I had no signs what so ever. We managed to squeeze in a few BD, but we didn't cover all bases

    How the hell are we supposed to cover all bases every month?!!! Gosh it's so hard! Especially when you work and have a million things to do. If I am too tired, I am TOO tired! And if we force BD it's not fun and it just hurts! sorry if it's TMI, but this is just so frustrating!!!
    Anyone else have this problem? Or am I alone on this one....

    Tasha and Rai - I am the same lovelies, I feel like BD-ing is SUCH a chore now that we are ttc... Big hugs to both of you..

    AFM- Well after seeing the new doc, she has inb fact given me clomid. I will be on 50mg when I get AF. I have to have ultrasound ovulation tracking every month to check what is going on. And the usual cd3 and cd21 blood tests to make sure everything is normal.

    So now its just the long wait for AF. I know i havent ovulated this cycle (so i know there wont be a bfp this month for me!) and it will show on my cd21 progesterone bt which I have to have on the 5th April... (Why do they call them cd21 tests... I have a 28/29 day cycle and the 5th april is cd23 for me...???)

    Hope everyone is well.

    Now to google all about Clomid...

    My doc said take it on the first day of full flow ... but Ive previously been told its days 2-7??? So I think Ill stick to that!

    Glad to know I'm not alone. When you've been together such a long time the honeymoon is over. literally! Don't get me wrong, I love my DH more than anything, but it's just so hard when you have a job, a house to run, washing, banking, cooking etc.

    Melzi, great news. Usually yes it is days 2-7 and cycle day 1 being the first day of red flow. Take them at night, because if you do get side effects they will be at night. I get night sweats, but they didn't start happening until the third cycle. Good luck!!
