    Although, today I have mostly been giggling at the buttergate thread if I'm honest.

    Hi everyone thanks for all the hugs.

    We had a good visit to the specialist. He was really helpful and understanding. His advice is for us to carry on with a further 3 cycles of clomid at 100mg. He doesn't want to monitor.

    If we're unsuccessful he wants my GP to email him and he will book me in for an HSG. Depending on what the HSG shows he may recommend a few more clomid cycles or IVF.

    He doesn't want to go down the super ovulation and IUI route. He referred to some studies.

    So all in all it feels like we are going somewhere. Guess it paid off going private initially. He is happy for us to be referred back through the NHS. From how he spoke he will deal with the HSG as soon as he hears from my doc. I won't have to wait for a referral per se.

    I have a private prescription for clomid I can get tomorrow. He even told me which chemist to use so it's as cheap as possible. We should also get 3 funded cycles at our trust.

    So he's to waiting a few more months. Any further treatment will be 2014.

    Have a good evening xxx

    Can you please update me:
    Seen FS. Advise 3 further cycles of clomid. If unsuccessful then book in for HSG and possibly IVF.

    thanks x

    Updated littleme. What's with the duplicate posting today? Everything I post then says 'you can only post once every 30 seconds', and it looks like it hasn't posted.

    Hey ladies,

    Sorry for the bfn little me - I had crap news today too :-( AF showed her horrible ugly face. When I had been doing blooming tests all week, because my boobs were sore :-(

    This sucks.

    Can I join the dodgy group hug?

    Good luck with the new ICSI cycle tea.

    Part mouse what's your update?

    So we are now about to start cycle 3 of Clomid and now on 150mg. This will be cycle 16 since MMC, and 33rd month trying overall. I'm so fed up of this.

    I think come January when our review is, if we aren't pregnant I'm going to have to give up for a while. Can't keep dealing with the disappointment every month. X

    Can I be updated to say -

    Cycle 2 Clomid 100mg - possible Ov - BFN
    Cycle 3 Clomid 150mg - bloods 23/10.

    Sorry can't change the colour - on my mobile xx

    Can I be updated please?

    Next step; pelvic scan 24/10/13 & waiting for AF for GP to do more bloods on CD3.

    Thanks x
