Hi everyone,

So sorry I have not been on for a while, my stupid work has blocked this site so I can only read and not respond whilst I’m at work, will have to send replies at home from now on.

Also…hubby and I just bought our first home and moved in over the weekend so the past few weeks have been crazy for me with packing and moving.

Hey Jess,
Oh bummer, I’m sorry your period arrived, no fun. That’s no good that you had no support at work, hope hubby was good to you Friday night. That’s great news that you are starting round 3 though, I have everything crossed for you. I have just finished my 4th round, only 3 of which worked (I ovulated). So a Laparoscopy is a procedure where they put you under a general aesthetic and insert 2-4 instruments into your abdomen to have a look around, they also check to see if your fallopian tubes are block and if so they attempt to unblock them. They will also have a look at my cysts on my ovaries and maybe try to remove some of them. A Lap is the only way of testing for endo which is what I am beginning to think I may have with all the pain that’s been going on, if they do find endo then they can clean it out for me. This procedure substantially increases your chases of fertility so long as it all goes smoothly. The flip side is that the fallopian tubes are blocked and cannot be cleared, in which case you then jump straight to IVF. Hope that helps to explain it a little. Try google’ing it. No I don’t see my gyno after every month, she told me to come back if we weren’t preggas after 3 months because we have been trying for 2 & ½ years and she can tell that we are over it. Emotionally I am doing better this week, I really feel that it is in the water at the moment, everyone around me is pregnant, and hopefully it will be our turn soon. How about you gorgeous? How did the shower go? I have my friends on this weekend J Also did you end up asking your specialist if you could get the dye test done again? Hope you are feeling better chick.

Hi 31Becc, Just a quick question about your Lap, did they find anything? Did they have to clean your tubes out etc? And how long after your lap could you start TTC again?

Frustrated, I am so glad everything is going well for you. Please continue to keep us updated. It’s so good to see “One of our own” preggas and all going well. I love it J

Emily ttc, yes I get a little sick of people asking that question. Sometimes I’m polite and just answer with “soon”, but sometimes (on my moody days) I respond with “we’ve been trying for 2 and half years and we’re having some complications”, that tends to shut people up pretty quickly.

Good luck Tamara, everything is crossed for you, please let us know how you go.

Hi Mez Moz, welcome to the forum. I also have had extreme pain on Clomid and am now off to have a lap done. Not sure if the pain is related to the Clomid but I’d prefer to know, at least this way I will know if anything else is wrong. I too have had hot flushes, they’re not much fun you feel like you’re going through menopause.

As for me… well I saw gyno on Friday morning (before settlement of our new house) she has booked me in for a Lap and because I have been having pain with my periods she was able to upgrade me and I am on a waiting list that is no more than 3 months (the other waiting list was 6-12 months), so I’m reasonably happy about that. Also I am on a last minute notice waiting list so if someone cancels there appointment (get’s preggas in the mean time) I can be called in with 48 hours notice and take their appointment. So I should know by the end of the week (I think) when I am booked in for. I have decided to give myself and hubby a rest this month, so no clomid for me.

So I am going to get graphical for a sec here (sorry) just need to ask some questions though. The last 3 nights I have been sweating like crazy and my mucus has increased heaps, but I’m not on Clomid. Is it possible that I am ovulation off the clomid even though I never have before? Has anyone heard of this happening?

Sorry this is such a long post, just had a lot to say.

Thanks to everyone for all your support, I don’t know what I would do without this forum.

Love & Support to you all.
