Helen - With the clomid, as far as I am aware, the later you take it, the later you *should* ovulate... I think you usually O 5-9 days after the last clomid tablet. I always O on day 9 after the last tablet. IMO I'd take it on days 5-9 again, but it might lengthen your cycle a bit (which could be a good thing)

As for Panadol/Nurafen thing... unfortunately we've used far too much of both of these products due to X's ear infections. I don't like using the stuff, but there isn't much else to offer him when he is screaming in pain. For teething I just use SM33 unless it's bad and then a half dose of panadol. Nurafen seems to work better and for longer than the panadol. I've got no dramas using Nurafen, but I know a lot do.

Nelle - I too couldn't give a monkeys' bum about the footy tomorrow. At least the shops will be nice and quiet.

Shell - Great to see you back. Love the new ticker.

Thanks Anna, I dont think I will mind having a little bit of a longer cycle. I have gone from one extreme to the other since starting on Metformin.

Panadol/Nurofen-We have both in our house as they work in different ways. When Eithan was really unwell he had both at the same time. I was very worried about his, but the dr assured me it was ok. This dr felt the same about nurofen as most people, that it is not that good due to stomachs but it is reccomended at times as it does have its place as panadol does not always work.

Anyways I really must get myself off to bed.

Jodi and Maz I hope that you are feeling better.

Love
