    Should I try a different OPK, since all last month I never had a positive one? I was just using cheapo ones from Amazon. I'm on CD29.

    Littleme82- did your GP prescribe you clomid? I was just wondering as maybe I can go and strong arm my GP as a last ditch attempt before IVF...

    Morning Teacake - my GP has been fantastic - especially as we went to see her on cycle 8 but I went armed with graphs, charts etc.

    She referred me for bloods, SA test for DP and a scan. Following results she then spoke to the consultant at the hospital and he confirmed Clomid and she prescribed them to me. I have to take them for 3 months and if that doesnt work then she will refer me to the consultant.

    She did say that the consultants new procedures are not to have blood tests and scans in the first 3 months of taking Clomid.

    I would definitely go and see your GP - print everything from FF out, have all your cycles listed, when you used pre-seed, slept with your hips in the air etc.

    It worked for us, I know we're not out this month yet but knowing after all the results that its likely i am not OV, AF arriving this month wont seem so bad as I can start Clomid on CD2.

    There is nothing wrong with me physically, just chemically.

    fingers crossed for you x
  • CD3 for me please :)

    this is the first and only time that you will see me smiling about AF arriving, we haven't tried this month I just wanted a break off and I am pleased that I've had a 'regular' 28/29 day cycle this month rather than a long one like last month which got my hopes up way too high!!

    On holiday around time of ov this month so got my fingers firmly crossed!!

    Miskate - It is possible to have a very long cycle and not ovulate until very late if at all!! so frustrating, It happened to me last month but give it another week or so, if still no AF or positive OPK try a Pregnancy test?

    Catching up after the weekend:

    Birdie and Lilmissmup - wishing you sticky beans and a healthy 9 months

    Part Mouse are you feeling any better?

    Code - hugs. Chin up for this month x

    Angeltreats thanks for doing the lists this weekend and becca did you have a lovely anniversary?

    Everyone, I too have hairy toe syndrome, gross isn't it? What I object to more is the ONE stray long dark hair that occasionally appears on my neck and the ONE stray long dark hair that occasionally appears on my nipple. Gross.

    Afm - SIGH the 2WW really is tedious isn't it???!!!! I actually just want AF to hurry up and arrive so I can get on with a proper month of trying.

    In the ongoing saga of my ridiculous body, I've gone from cd16 to catching the with. No idea what is going on, I seem to have two ordinary cycles then a really short one, almost the opposite of everyone else with PCO. So it's Cd3 here, lucky old me. :mad:

    Becs feeling a bit better today thanks, trying to get hold of FS, would be good to have some idea whats going on.

    Rouge hairs are horrid arn't they lol despite an awful lot of laser treatment the hairs are still very much a prob.

    CWTW Naturally I have a constanly very short cycle, my FS said it was due to me not ov, the only time I have ever had a 'normal' cycle was on clomid.

    I'd go to the dr if I started bleeding that early, especially if its not the first time.
