    I'll be even more stoked if the I'm pregnant Lol.. 2yrs in May it will be since I have been off contraception.. (I was only on it cos doctors said it would be very risky for me to fall pg so soon after a classical cut c-section) Almost 2.5yrs since I lost my twinnys A little bit emotional thinking about them lately.. I wish they were here.

    Tash - I just wish I would stop getting my hopes up.. I think yes, then no.. As I have said before going by my chart, my temps are so erratic it's not a pregnant looking chart, but the doctor kept telling me to think positive.. I felt like she thought I was but didn't want to say anything.. Oh well, as long as AF stays away there is a chance..

    Gecko - Sorry for the loss of your twins too I will be interested to see what your levels are this cycle..

    Sorry ladies... Oops. I just kind of plodded along and expected you all to know it was me lol. For those of you who don't... Melzi19...

    Well, my temp took yet another dive. Definitely didn't ovulate. I've put the opks away as I've nearly used 2 months supply just on this month alone. Don't let me pick another one up lol!!!

    Roll on af! I'm not going to repeat my cd21 bloods this cycle as I know the numbers will just put me down... Not going to do that to myself.

    Hope everyone's well... Brewing up lots of big sticky eggies!!! Ready for a bfp! Xx

    Hi girls,

    BAL - my first progesterone test was 85, apparently that was very very good too! I too dont know what is considered the norm.

    Tasha, are your BD chores over for this month yet? heheh they are chores arent they

    Hope you ladies catch the egg this month, I mean easter is coming up, there should be plenty of eggs!!!!!!!!!

    AFM: Went to see GP yesterday has ive had spotting with red blood since CD23. She kept going its AF. I said I dont think so because AF has NEVER EVER came this early for me.

    In the end we did a blood test to see if i was UTD or not but i doubt it as POAS all BFN.

    She said the spotting could be due to ectopic pregnancy which got me all scared

    she wasnt very nice =( as she didnt even hear me out about my cycle.

    Grrr

    Will keep you guys up to date when i get by test results at 12

    Well ive been spotting since CD23 and went to see the GP yesterday. She was no help at all,

    LynsDan - I bought 50 tests off e bay.. 40 OPK's and 10 HPT, it was only $20.95 Lol.. Not sure how accurate they are but at least it can satisfy my poas addiction..

    M2OSB- Bummer about your doc.. I hate it when they don't listen.. You know your body.. (well sometimes Lol)

    Tash - I hope you don't mind me asking, but if your progesterone is so high, that means you are ovulating right? Does your doc have any idea why you are not pregnant yet? The only reason I'm asking is because my doc seems to think that if I'm not pregnant in 3 months maybe my tubes are blocked.. Thing is, I can't afford to have a lap with her as she is private, so I am going to ask if I can do clomid for more cycles, if I don't fall pg.. Does your doc have a plan for you?

    He is only an OBS/GYNO so he called an endocrinologist (who are have more expertise) and she said it was fine to have levels that high, unusual, but fine. After this next cycle I will go back and then we will discuss what to do next. I don't think my tubes are blocked because i did fall PG 8 years ago. But I have heard that if clomid doesn't work in the first 3 cycles then it probably wont, but I have also known of ladies that have got a BFP on their 4th or 5th cycle, so who knows. My problem used to be that I wasn't ovulating enough and I have ovulated every cycle with clomid, but no BFP! Maybe I will have more tests when I go back to see him.

    Bal- I have brought opks off eBay. And the digital ones too. Can't wait to get the smiley faces once I ovulate!!

    I go through so many!!!! The digi ones from the uk are about 50 including postage for a 20 pack!

    Oh m2osb- I hope it's nothing serious and you get some answers as to what's going on. When is your ultrasound? How is the PCOS on Clomid? Does it settle it down or make it worse? Wouldn't the dosage be kept at a minimum as to not over stimulate your ovaries? Do you have constant monitoring or unmonitored cycles?

    Hope the bleeding stops and hope it's not af. Nor anything serious. Xx big hugs

    I have unmonitored cycles but i want to switch FS as I dont feel my current one is doing enough to be honest.

    I am not sure what clomid has on PCO, but i guess we'll see.

    Ill try to get my U/S done tomorrow during lunch.

    Hi girls, I need to ask a question. In your 2ww is anyone good and not eat deli meats or things you are not supposed to? I have some ham in the fridge from the deli and would love a ham and cheese sandwich. Sorry i know very basic stupid question.

    Rai as long as the Ham or deli meat is well in it's date then use it.

    You're in you're tww so you don't know if your pregnant as yet. A lot of women who are pregnant and don't know do silly things like go out on alcohol benders the night before they find out they are pregnant and doctors advise that it will be ok.

    So eating a bit of deli meat or cheese shouldn't be a problem in my opinion. But that's just me. If your not comfortable. Then don't!

    LysnDan - Thank You i agree makes me feel better though. I'm off to have my sandwich

    Sorry another question does anyone or has anyone tried the fertility diet? I'm curious because i think i can get DP to agree to 1 round of something either IVF or IUI in July but i will only have that one chance as his pig headed and that's all he will let me do. So it's like it will be 3 years of trying then and if its ment to be then it will happen or if it does not work in July i will give up trying altogether. I need advise what would you do to give you a better chance of getting that BFP? Is there anything i can do? besides losing the 20kg's i need to.
