    minnie, I've got the 500mg tablets and I'm supposed to have half a tablet twice a day for one week then 1 tablet twice a day after a few days (which I've started)
    I'm still having the nausea, but I'm dealing with it cause it doesn't bother me too much. AF has almost left, here's hoping this works for me! *crosses fingers*

    Utterly devastated. After your reply lynsdan, I did some research and found out that pcos is likely to cause high estrogen levels. So my reliant on the monitor has totally been a waste.

    now I dont know where I am in my cycle to start clomid or provera.
    60 days with on and off spotting and one day blood clot.

    I really dont want to go bacl to my fs because I cant afford it at the moment.

    im going to see gp tomowwor torequest an ultrasound.

    do you know if a normal gp can tell where in the cycle I am?

    nothings happening for me this year, I feel so devastated esp when all my friend are having their second child already when dd is the oldest in the group.

    M2OSB, use the script for provera! Hugs to you, I know how you feel, nothings happening for me either and this is my final clomid cycle. Been laying low as I have nothing to say really. Really, use the provera. At least then you will know where your at in your cycle and not be left in the dark. If you are unsure, ask your GP.

    I am a sucker for romance.. Long story short (x?) DP and I just had the most romantic weekend.. He booked a room on the 18th floor Ocean view of a motel here on the Goldy, when I arrived after work on Sat night there was a bubble bath and a bottle of champagne ready... Anyway, looks like this cyle of clomid wasn't wasted after all. I had a positive OPK yesterday and I was with him from Fri night til today.. So maybe baby?? If it doesn't work this cycle though it'll be on the back burner for a while, I know TTC is not the most responsible thing to do with the way my relationship is ATM, but heart or head?? It's hard.. Plus I had already taken clomid.. Didn't wanna waste it! I also know if I did get a BFP, I would love my baby no matter the circumstances and I would manage, single or not.. Not ideal I know, but I have always had it in the back of my mind that I would absolutely be willing to be a single Mummy if that's what happened..

    BAL - I hope you become a mummy again soon xoxo. I agree with your decision, there is never a "right time" to have a child, life will adjust itself when it happens.

    So i went to the GP and getting an ultrasound done this afternoon. She said that blood tests wont detect anything, what a load of crap =(

    I hate pelvic ultrasounds because i have a weak bladder and need to drink 1 litre of water!

    Thanks for your support M2OSB.. FF detected O on Friday and technically we DTD on Sat, it was about 2am though.. My opk was positive Saturday so I am not sure which one to go by! If I did in fact O on Friday the chance of conceiving would be low Anyway, just have to wait and see I s'pose..

    Still a high chance, The egg would have been able to survive for 24 hrs if O was detected by FF, and if your OPK was right then the sperm would have survived for 5 days! Ill shoo AF away for you, she can come visit me instead =)
