    Sweet of you to drop by Hollye - good luck with your u/s tomorrow. I bet you are so excited, you're going to see bub for the first time! Enjoy!

    Mel - glad you got confirmation of O. Good luck for testing on Fri. Sounds very promising for you this month, sending more .

    Twomums - how you doing? Any symptoms,

    I'm not really feeling anything either way, I do actually mentally 'feel pg' kind of all calm and relaxed (which is unusual for me) but I don't have the metallic taste that I did last time. My breasts seem quite plump, have been a little more tender than usual but am just putting the changes down to the clomid. I guess my strongest symptom would be that twinging pulling sensation across my lower abdomen. i had this last time I fell pg and do get it most months just not this intense. Have been peeing alot lately too but again putting that down to a clomid side effect. Oh, well if it's not to be then next month isn't too far off now. Being pg at Christmas would be just as nice as having a bub for Christmas.

    for all and for the pg ladies.

    Bugger....af is here

    Yep - the witch (or should I say b***h) is here. I'm not so much disappointed about not being pg I am just so disappointed about a 10 day LP!!! I'm starting to think that I really do have problems now, won't jump to conclusions - will see what ob says on Mon.

    Spotting started at lunch time (sorry for TMI but not just the brown spots, fresh red spots too). So is today cd1, do I start clomid tomorrow. Or would you wait until you have an actual normal flow & count that as cd1. Last month I started spotting late at night and af arrived in normal flow following morning so I counted that morn as cd1.

    well af now here full on so I have decided that today is cd 1 so I guess it's back to the clomid tomorrow. Have decided I need to do something else to try and help my short LP so am going to try vitex. It's natural so surely it wouldn't clash with the clomid? Any thoughts. Sorry if I have been overbearing with all of my posts today but it's really been a struggle today. Bumped into a colleague from my old work (who doesn't know my ttc history or even than I'm ttc) but all she did was talking about who's pregnant, blah blah blah. I'm really happy for them but hearing "she fell straight away" didn't exactly help considering the frame of mind I was already in. Ok off to the supermarket now to get some vitex - going to turn this bad day around. Hmmm, might get some Thai take away and a bottle of wine on the way home. to you all.

    Mel, here's some more .

    I generally count the first day of red as CD1. Big to you, I don't know anything about vitex, but I generally call OB on those things. God luck I hope your Clomid symptoms are few and easy.

    Well, I caved this morning. . It is only 12dpo so AF is due between tomorrow and Tuesday. (LP has never been regular) Will wait untill i can't stand it any more and do another test or AF turns up. Good sign though, Temp went up again today. \
    So hope is not lost.

    hey girls,

    sorry been so busy with work and my new scooter... nothing is happening... kim is now 9dpo and is having zero symptoms... complete opposite to last cycle. She had that sicky feeling by day 9 and tired and also very sore boobs etc, but alas BFN... This time she feels completely normal... no sore boobs, not tired and not sick. Be interesting to see what happens. She normally gets AF on 12 days post IUI so if there is no AF on 12 dpiui we will test on 13 dpiui... hope everyone else in the tww is hangin in there...

    AJC - Sorry that witch showed up, good on you for being proactive about it tho...

    MelA - We got a BFN on day 12 and a BFP on day 14 the time Kim got pregnant...fingers crossed big time for you!!

    DrGirl72 - Hows the clomid treating you this cycle??
