    Hi everyone,

    Thanks for your reply Wantbaby#2, LSK & BEE!

    I did a HPT this morning and got another BFN, Today is CD 28, and since about an hour ago I have been getting AF type pains, so i think its safe to say we wont be having a bubba this year on the bright side there is always next month!

    I was going to try taking clomid at night this time and since you have all recommended it I def will. My side effects are horrible, I am as vauge as hell, coming out with some doozies of sayings and doing really weird things and i get light headed and feel preety flat so if i could sleep through the worst of that i would be happy.

    Thanks again I really appreciate it - Avonlea

    Hey Girls - wow I have missed a lot over the weekend with the posting!

    Well AF arrived on Friday evening - I knew it must have been coming because I was feeling ready to k... someone in the afternoon!!

    Anyway, so starting my next #5th attempt at clomid tomorrow, my FS cannot understand why I am not BFP yet, as I have been Oing every month BD when supposed and extra! and releasing at least 2 eggs each time. They have a feeling my tubes could be blocked or have endemetri (can't spell it!)...... So I have this attempt and if I am not by a certain date I have another appointment with my FS and he will do the dye blast and schedule me in for exploratory surgery - laprocomy or whatever. Anyone had one of these? How full on are they?

    Welcome to the new girls. Good luck to everyone this month!!

    Hi Girls,Referring to Bec asking about the dye blast known as Hycosy (for short) i had one done and it kinda hurt! They usually give you some pain killers before hand.It showed up on me that one tube was clear and the other had a slight delay (time of when the dye flows out the other end of the tube but nevertheless they told me thay were both clear.......NOT correct. 2 years later i had my Laparoscopy (last August) and was found to have had BOTH tubes blocked and Ashermans syndrome (scarring in the uterus and adhesions caused by sons caesarean 12 years earlier).Lap wasnt too bad...bit uncomfortable from all the gas they put in your abdomen but felt ok 4 days later.( i react to anaesthetic)
    Anyhow i am upto day 19 and think i ovulated 4 days ago.Had tender nipples for 2 days but now nothing except a bit of tearfullness which hubby is annoyed with.
    Well at least the sickness,headaches and sharp twinges at ov have stopped.Now it is the long ttw.

    good news for once yay

    Rang up the gyno today and clomid payed off- ovulation score of 105 so I may even have more than one egg- not sure how they test but the nurse said the sore was really high. So HPT next week and I should know for sure if it really really worked. Fingers and toes crossed

    Afternoon ladies,

    First up I'd like to thank everyone for the advice about taking clomid at night..... I'm on day 4 ( cycle day 6) of taking it and have maybe had 1 hot flush, that's it. To be quite honest the whole clomid thing has been a complete non event!

    Ellianna- fingerscrossed for a bfp!

    Tammara- good luck for Thursday let us know how you go.

    Wantbaby#2- thanks fir thatbit of info will keep that in mind when I have hsg.


    Arm- waiting for hsg on Friday afternoon and am looking forward to all the bd'ing that has to begin next week, haha whatever gets me closer to a bfp!!!
