I think there are a couple of other people who have the same problem on here, is there something about it a page or so ago?

I am now 24 hours on from when I though AF had started and still nothing more. My tummy is so full of butterflies, daring to hope that I may have been sucessful after all. Just wish I ahd a definitive answer, its horrible being stuck in limbo. Should I test tomorrow if it still hasn't started? My CM is pretty much normal again.

Fingers crossed for you Laura.

What DPO are you, do you know?

It is due tomorrow (if my cycle is running normally, my last one started on 30th June) It definately looked as though it started yesterday and it didnt surprise me it was 2 days early because last cycle it was 4 days earlier than expected. I hadn't been checking temps or using OPK's so I could be out?

If AF is due tomorrow then I don't see any harm in testing in the morning if she hasn't arrived.

Fannyanna, glad your appointment went well:)

Yes I've tried 7 clomid cycles:o, last 3 with IUI. I think it's ok to continue after a bit of a break. I had a cycle without clomid in between too.
What you do is pop the pill for 5 days starting between CD2-5. I started mine at CD2, but CD3 is the most common. Earlier you start, more eggs, later better quality.

You should take it before you go to bed, but make sure you had a good evening meat beforehand. I took it on empty stomach once and got dizzy:o

Good luck:)
2522Laura, that's a good idea too thanks (antibiotics):)
lisa26, to shorten cycles, Clomid is good but need prescription, there's an alternative which is Soy Isoflavones which you can get at health shops like Holland and Barrats which can do similar thing. Otherwise Agnus Castus to regulate your hormones? I'm not an expert at this, and I recommend you do your own research, it's not medical advice, it's just an idea:)

If AF doesn't appear tomorrow, I'd test, with a cheap hpt:)
Fingers crossed:)

I haven't been prescribed it yet and I'd like to lose a bit of weight before I give it ago.

I'm also thinking I should maybe find out whether my tubes are blocked before trying it. I just wondered whether my Doctor would suggest that before prescribing it to me.

Also do you have scans whilst you're taking clomid?

Sorry if it feels like I'm interrogating you

Ok, if she isn't here tomorrow morning I will test. Its the other half's Nan's funeral tomorrow morning so would be quite nice to find out that we have a new life begining.

That reminds me, we still haven't heard back from Praline have we? Hope she is ok? xx

Don't know why, but I've just got a good feeling about this cycle. Fingers crossed I'm right.

Bigzippy I hope you get a sticky bean soon so you can be a little family. Your due date would be the day before my first wedding anniversary.

Thank you

Oh that is so lovely!! I really really hope it happens to you, by the sound of it, it couldn't happen to a more loving, happy couple xx

Thank you! That's a lovely thing to say! :A

Bigzee, you have a lovely DH and MIL:o
Medicash sounds great, just had a lookie. My medical plan doesn't pay for anything, unless I have to be hospitalised. I realise it's not the same thing, I see one needs both:cool:

Lol - they each have their moments
Yeah I really need to sign up for it, but I keep forgetting! If I go through my dad's referral he gets a £15 love to shop voucher I think, but that means ringing up (instead of just clicking send on the computer lol) and I'm not much good on the phone

Well.....................CD1 for me

BUT I am happy because

1) my LP is 14 days which is good
2) my cycle went from 73 days to 42 days so a whole month shorter
3) a little longer to save some money!
4) I get to join the club for this month!

yay!

Boo for AF, but :T for the PMA!

Had my follow up appointment with my GP this morning. She's inspired me with regards to the weight loss. I asked her to weigh me and make a record of it in the hope that it will incentivise me - aim to have a loss when I see her next in 4 weeks time.

She's also said that she is happy to break the rules for me and prescribe me clomid. I am very, very surprised about that but obviously happy.

:T Yay!!

So.... before anyone waves a at me...

it's DH's bday tomorrow...and I'll be 10DPO...and I still have nausea, sore boobs, knackeredness, and far too much hope...

So....should I test? (and no you can't tell me I'd be naughty to:p, or wasting money (I have ICs):p, and I'm not that fussed by BFNs cos I regularly do them every so often just cos of the monster PCOS cycles I have )

Go on bigzee TEST
