    Have we heard from any of the ladies at the top of the list e.g. benhope & razwaz?

    Firefly - hope you caught it, have updated you on list :D x

    Welcome wigan, hope you get your little one soon x

    Angeltreats - added your * for CP - hope that works for you x

    Tinks- hope your cloud is gone now :)

    TeamLowe - really hope you manage to ovulate this month but if not then I hope clomid works wonders for you x

    Lemon - I was not offended in the slightest by your post and don't see how anyone could have been. You've been through a lot. We all bring our past with us in life xxx

    Does anyone know if there is a link between sugary diet and not ovulating? I'm trying to come up with some ideas as to why I am not ovulating.

    AFM - had a lovely spa break with DH. Looking forward to getting scan results and going to request day 21 bloods as am pretty sure I'm not ovulating. Feel positive with a plan!

    I did Insanity too! It's soooo addictive and I love it! I love it so much that it's been in a box for the last 18 months :o! Maybe I'll dust it off and get DH to do it with me again. It was amazing for toning up, but I didn't see any weight loss when I did it :cool:.

    I didn't see any weight loss either but I did have inch loss, got much fitter and got my Shaun T fix as well- he is SO fit... in every way! :D

    Just braved the supermarket- week's meal plan done, food bought, house cleaned (am CLEARLY nesting...lol). Sitting here a some sort of smug domestic goddess. I'll give it two days and it'll have degenerated into anarchy again!

    Hope you feel better soon an9i77- personally I can't think of anything worse than OH giving me a cup of his finest... :eek: ;)
  • I found this article Becca- it says there may be a link between refined carbs impacting insulin levels and hormones so in theory it could affect ovulation I suppose. I know there's a link with insulin resistance/ PCOS and ovulation problems- that's why low GI diets are always recommended for PCOS sufferers. :)

    Becca, I believe the link is that too much insulin can result in an excess of androgens and not enough estrogens, this can affect ovulation. Its important to remember that your body will produce insulin in response to all carbohydrates not just sugary ones, although sugary ones will often elicit more of a reaction. But things like mashed potato, cornflakes etc can be just as bad.

    I'm giving them all a very wide berth until I've got a proper bun in the oven!

    Thanks - that's really interesting considering that I'm undergoing tests for PCOS.

    Well it's make a baby week starting tomorrow for me and OH, this time around I am strangely not looking forward to it this time as I'm worried about whether I'll ovulate. I'm back at the doctors for another day 21 test the week after. I'm at the point now where I don't mind if I don't get a BFP I just want to pass the progesterone test! Although no weird mid cycle bleeding from the clomid yet (touch wood) which is what weirded me out last month, maybe I just had a weird cycle because of the clomid.

    Just a quick update - had little bit more brown spotting over night and cramps, but today again absolutely nothing....I was sure after the cramps last night AF would be here this morning, so didn't even think of testing...

    Am still teeny bit hopeful, but at same time dreading each time I go to loo in case the witch appears!
