Thanks for your reply Michelle. I can see why you are on clomid with your level - I am sure you will find success. I am crossing fingers for you! I hear you about the nurse thing. I just wanted to be sure you didn't feel intruded on!
It's so nice to be able to share this journey with you and the other women in here. Otherwise it would be a lonely journey.
Well I just hated (she laughs raucously!) to say I told you so but my prog. was only 16. Indicating that I have not ovulated or I have and it was poor or I have only JUST ovulated. Surprise surprise!!!!!
I still have positive opk this am but this evening it is a touch lighter than positive. Indicating that the surge is coming down. So I would say I o'd last night but we'll be at the 'work bench' again tonight just in case!!!!!!!!!!!!
I spoke to my ob on his take on the late ovulation thing. He believes that yes science says that we 'should' o around 14 days after our last bleed for optimal eggs however that often doesn't happen and more often than not healthy babies are conceived.
As for me he says there is a very small amount of women that clomid will increase the follicular part of the cycle as well as the luteal and perhaps I am one of them! He said it would seem that the clomid has affected my cycle as I have ovulated later than normal for me.
I will have my prog. level done again on Monday. We should see a significant rise to say that I have ovulated well - over 40. Keep your fingers crossed for me that the clomid has increased my luteal phase otherwise if I caught the eggy it may not stick.
Well, I have to let it go for now as it's out of my hands!
