ugh. I've just been sent home from work. Feeling sick and dizzy and headachey and everything goes black when I stand up. I'd better not be getting the flu.

Hello girls, CD17 here:wave:
OPKs are getting darker, I'm hoping I'll ov on Sunday or Monday, so that I don't have to tell DH about ov:o

amyloofoo, I've used Preseed, but I don't anymore as I'm usually quite wet down there:p
Good thing about Conceive plus is that you can get it at Boots, and you can use it in 2 ways, inside you or on DH (unlike Preseed where it has to be in you). Don't use too much though, he'll drown:D
MV, yay!!! You are back!!!:j:j:j
Sequeena, massive (((((hugs))))):(
Leopardlady, have you tested?:)
Lilymay, :dance: Another digi?
Chocolateislife, agnus castus can regulate cycles and hormones. Never tried it myself but sounds interesting. Some people stop taking them after ov.
atton, (((hugs))). Why not just get married the way you want to and be happy?:)
As for being sick, have you eaten anything? Like codemonkey said, you should take sudafed with food.
codemonkey, hope you'll get better soon:kisses3:
You should think TTC in longer term, say pg by Christmas?
Tumbleweed indeed:rotfl:
tea lover, (((hugs))):o How big were the lead follicle? Did they do any blood test?
Flee, yay for the wedding in August next year!:j:j:j
Have you got the dress yet?

thanks qq. Last year I made a wish on a christmas star that i would either have a baby or be pregnant by Christmas. I meant properly pregnant though with a huge bump. Hope that eggy pops out soon and Mr Q is in the mood.

They did measure but they didn't tell me how big (or not) it was. I looked on the screen when I was leaving and it said 3.4..., 3.4 what I have no idea. Is that little??

They printed off a picture to put on my notes. It's heartbreaking. Every week they print off a scan picture of my crappy ovaries and I just want the picture with the baby on.

You have to watch the screen when they measure the follicles. My first FS didn't tell me the sizes so I had to keep my eyes peeled and ears like dumbo.

The smallest ones would be about 3.4mm. My 1st FS won't measure anything smaller than 8mm.
Once the lead follicle has past the 8mm mark, it usually means the ovary has awoken:o

It needs to reach about 20mm to ovulate. Follicles grows about 1-2mm/day, but can grow faster near the end (like 5mm in one day).

Bl00dy hell, she measured the biggest one and that was only 3.4! This could take ages. How can clomid have made me ov later than I was before??

Well, you don't know for sure if it was the follicles she measured. It could've been something else, like the lining?

Also the lead follicle could've been hiding on the other side.

In my case I took 50mg twice I think then went onto 100mg, but the doctor said 100mg didn't work and gave me norethisterone to induce AF. Clomid works in mysterious ways...

Hi, sorry to just arrive unannounced :-)
Hoping to start TTC over the next few months, and wondered if anyone could recommend any soluble / chewable pre natal vitamins / folic acid?
I cannot swallow tablets, so need to look at alternatives!
Thanks in advance xo
