Congratulations winky, lovely news.

thanks ladies for all your nice comments-mrh is delighted with himself and I'm back to see FS on Monday to get things moving along

Oh, I meant to ask, does anyone have a windows phone? I got one the other day and can't get FF on it-not that I use it much on the phone, but I like having it there, any ideas-or is it just on android?

Congrats to Winky! And well done to Mrs Happy, nice to see good news.

I'm alright thanks BZ, and you? Still shilly shallying? :-) I spent a few days with the inlaws and despite the Kate news we managed to dodge the baby talk. AF came Monday, really horribly, and now I'm just mopping along until babydancing starts. CD21 falls on xmas eve, so that'll be fun at the hospital. Worried that the clomid is going to give me horrid cramps and heavy flow for the next 5 months :-( But at least it worked, a 30 day cycle. Had some other good news and may be moving soon, so thats given me a more positive outlook.

SA details were interesting, going to get hubby to dig his out for me when he's back from hols, see how he compares :-D His count and mobility were low but cant remember figures.

Teamlowe, having a nice doctor makes such a difference, I'm sorry you've had a bad experience. Do you think it was a one-off or would it be possible to see someone else?

Hugs to those in need. V xx

Hi, second post here. Went to the doctors today to kick off investigations as to why nothing is happening. Blood tests are scheduled for over Christmas and Mr P needs to give his permission for sperm tests. I won't hold my breath. I've been trying to get him to go for one for over a year.

The Dr said as I have endometriosis my hormones could be at the incorrect levels. I asked wouldn't it be simple to have a hormone injection instead. But apparently its a case of having too many hormones. I wish he said which one.

He also said the extra hormones are foreign bodies and (could?) mean I produce more white blood cells to fight off the hormones. But they also fight off another foreign body - sperm.

Been reading on my phone over the last few days, but not had time to comment.

Hope everyone is keeping warm.

After a slow start to AF, it came really heavy. Must be the impact of Clomid.

CD6 here so Clomid finished for the month, having scan on Tuesday.

MrsH, can't help you with the phone, I've no idea what Windows version of the android market/itunes situation is. I'm an android convert these days

V, I think the shilly-shallying is over for now AF wise The clomid definitely affects my hormones and stuff though, so still plenty of shilly-shallying going on

I now have the first "high" on the cbfm (cd8) but despite planning to, we've done nothing about it tonight. I think it's a preemptive "high" induced by clomid, so not worried yet. I might have a shower and change all the sheets & pjs & maybe tidy the bedroom too, if I'm up to it, before dh gets home tomorrow though - help set the mood


I'm loving that we've had 2 bfp's recently :j

I need some sympathy ladies.

Not only have I been having loads of AF cramps and muchos EWCM and watery CM at 5/6 dpo...(which obviously means theres loads of estrogen being produced...)....I went for my appointment at 9:30am this morning only to be told it had been moved to the 21st December. Nobody thought to tell me though I got very angry and shouted at a lot of people which I now feel guilty about because it isn't their fault.

I also have a bloody chest infection which, coupled with my badly managed asthma, means I am quite a poorly person.

So yeah...any sympathy would be appreciated Feeling very sorry for myself and PMA is at all alltime low :(:(
