    Hey gals!

    This is cycle number 2 on clomid. day 2 of taking these pills...

    I have decided to go for the blood test monitoring so my doctor has 2 cycles recorded. Seeing as my cycles are only lasting 25 days at the most! (I'm pretty sure it's from the Chem preg)

    Anyway I broke down on the phone to dh yesterday and have decided this is going to be our last cycle on clomid for a while. Giving our body's a rest from ttc. (well not trying but not preventing either...the NTNP approach to TTC)

    So we shall wait and see how This cycle goes and if not successful we will just keep plotting along but I won't be temping or monitoring loads of opks or anything! Just dtd when we feel like it!

    Anyways I'd best be off. Getting teary writing this...

    Hahaha thanks ladies
    Wondering if anyone would really notice it.

    I'm not announcing anything just yet though. Waiting for first scan, and to hit at least the 10 week mark. I might change my ticker to an age ticker for William until the 10wk mark

    Congrats darkdreamer!



    Afm- spoke to hubby again and he's going to support whatever I would like to do.

    My gp will only allow us to do 3 cycles of clomid under her care. The rest is up to an obgyn. I've had a referral sent through but dh needs to go for a SA before the obgyn! Hmmm it's like getting blood from a stone! Men!!

    Hi girls,

    just checking in and to let you know I saw my gyn last night. He could see on the ultrasound that I had ovulated a week ago (which was why I had so much pain last tues) so that was day 65!!! so I should get AF in another week and then I am going to take 1/2 clomid tablet 25mg. He said even though I did finally ovulate given the length of my cycle clomid is still the way to go. I was on a full tablet when I fell with my DD, but am happy to start off on half of that to ease the risk of twins. So hopefully AF will come soon so I can start taking it again!!!

    lysndan, ouch blood tests I hate them, hoping you wont need to do anymore after this cycle and get a bfp.

    How is everyone else going?

    afm, Ii got my results back and looks like I did ovulate, my progetesterone at cd 5 was 20.5

    today is 11dpo for me. Did a test with clearblue digital and got a bfn.

    Gotta see if my temp stays up in the hnext few day but already having af pains.

    M2OSB- Hun give it a day or two test with fmu on a non digital test. The digital ones take a little longer, as they aren't that sensitive it's not over till af rears her ugly head. (keeping my fx for you babe!)

    BAL- how are you going sweetie? Big hugs to you and bubba! how are you feeling? Your in the same group I would have been in if my bubba was a sticky one! Say hi to the girls for me xx keep us updated

    Afm- blood tests start tomorrow @ cd7! And getting lots of creamy cm?!? Good thing dh is home tomorrow. My opk wasn't positive (there was a line, but wasn't anything compared to control line!) so i should have heaps of time before o! Naturally! Haha another 5/7 days yet!!?

    Anyways hugs to all you beautiful girls xox

    Still getting negative opks... They aren't quite positive. Hoping they show smiley soon. Dh is only home until Thursday morning. We have been bd-ing every second night. Will increase it now for 3 days every night. Cmon eggy. Get preggy!

    Not having the blood tests apart from day 21 as I fainted and bruised from the Thursday test. That and they don't get so much blood from me. (they got half a vial!)

    Anyways will do another opk later this arvo. Fx it gets darker! Or has a smiley face before dh goes to work!
