    Hi Everyone!

    Belinda, I think it is awesome that you have lost weight!! Congrats You should feel really proud of yourself. It is so hard to do so well done!

    ATT, how did you go at the grading? My FS said that I would only try Clomid for 6 cycles. However, it doesn't seem to be working for me so I dont think I will be on it that long. I have also read that if you use it for too long it can have an adverse effect on your fertility.

    Penny, how are you going? any more news after you O'd?

    Hope everyone is well

    Morning all,

    I passed my grading - yay! I now have a blue belt. It had been a long time coming. I got to the belt level I was at before last night four years ago, then work got too much and I gave it up. I had wanted to get back to it for the last couple of years, but had been putting it off until after we had a baby. This year I decided I wasn't going to put it off anymore and just went back (luckily they let me continue from my previous belt level). Also my DS wanted to start, so now we go together - He passed his grading too.

    Thanks everyone for the info on Clomid cycles. I have an appointment with my gyno next week, so I guess I will ask him about it also. We have already been given the forms for IVF registration. It always makes me laugh when I ring for my results and to find the next step because the secretary always says 'Oh you ovulated, so just continue on that dosage for the next cycle'. I was ovulating before the clomid, so I am unsure why they are pleased that I have ovulated and that the level I am on seems to be working. Although having said that, it has lengthened my luteal phase, so I guess it is having some effect.

    BW - I will email you as well as I would also like a copy of you document on exercise and diet.

    Sammy - How are you going with this cycle? Any results yet?

    Hope everyone has a lovely day
