I hope nobody else has started a May conception thread; April isn't going to be it for me, so onwards and forwards ladies!

I thought that too....honestly I did..I'm not just copying!!

Didn't know if it was worth it before but after reading those notes I decided it would be for three months.

Do you have a web page for it?
There a thread somewhere here that I posted my very limited knowledge on ages ago...I will search it out!

trace2 · 27/04/2006 21:58

oh forgot to say am getting some pre-seed as we may need this as it drys up cm

coggy · 27/04/2006 21:57

.....you with the wipe-clean cover Grin !!

coggy · 27/04/2006 21:56

Okay...speak soon.

trace2 · 27/04/2006 21:55

yes, i think this is a good read too, and it also looks like i have a short luterl phase too, as i ovulated on day 14, which means that it short (10 or less days after ovu), which stops the eggs getting mature

trace2 · 27/04/2006 21:51

lol yes i gave my secert awayWink

my friend took it and had no side effects at all, good luck, we might catch on together.
going to bed now, chat soon

coggy · 27/04/2006 21:50

Trace.....I am here nearly in tears..(a side effect already she asks?!)
I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO pleased to read that it sorts out LPD..I can't believe it. Grin Grin Grin
I KNEW that was what had happened before but to see it written down makes me even more positive about going on it.
Thank you for this info.......it is fab!

Weird how the suggested days are so different isn't it?
Are you taking 50mg to start with?
It also says about a hcg which is my injectuon and that most people don't do this, so that explains why you are just bloods done.

It also says.....my new clomid Bible(!) that you can use OPKs with clomid although I thought you couldn't?

So much to learn.........Wink

coggy · 27/04/2006 21:40

Thanks Trace - have skim read the first bit about husbands trembling...doesn't sound too good...sounds like there are LOTS of side effects doesn't it?!

I have printed the rest off so I shall read it and see if it mentions wine anywhere!

Also noticed that this is the companion pillow site isn't it?!
Have you been looking at that?!! Wink

trace2 · 27/04/2006 21:36

look here under how do i take it

coggy · 27/04/2006 21:35

When I had it before I don't think I had any side effects - none that I noticed anyway. I was a bit moody maybe at times but I think that was more to do with the stress of having to be in the right place and the right time with dh who always seemed to be somewhere else! On a course, at work, asleep on night duties......

I was surprised when I read the clomid thread and people had said about some side effects.
I will notice this time - a bit more aware of what's going on this time round.

coggy · 27/04/2006 21:32

Also took it at night because my af was so light that I wanted to give it as much of day2 as I could - stupid? Probably!
I don't know why you take it on day 2 and not day 1...is it really significant?

Took tablet number 2 this afternoon and by the last tablet will probably be taking it in the morning - just because I will find it easier to remember!

Nobody's told me that it matters so I guess not.

trace2 · 27/04/2006 21:32

was going to ask if they have given you any side affects, but its to early i think

trace2 · 27/04/2006 21:30

lol

coggy · 27/04/2006 21:29

I don't know...took mine last night with a glass of wine!! Probably the worst thing ever to do I'll find out! But wanted to celebrate starting and also finish up wine as I am on a 100 day health kick from now!

trace2 · 27/04/2006 21:17

yes i know , been waiting for this do i take in the morning or night?

coggy · 27/04/2006 21:16

Bummer to hear that af is arriving...but here's to our new beginnings with clomid Trace.
You're only a few days behind me so it'll be interesting to see how we both go.

trace2 · 27/04/2006 20:49

well cd 24 and started spotting, also my temp went down today too, so af on her way

neolara · 27/04/2006 18:00

Just a quickie to say thanks to trace2 for giving me the link to the CM website and also to coggy for her thoughts.

Good luck to you all and I hope you all get your babies soon!

Oh no.....Sad

My apologies. Must be such a disappointment after all the symtoms etc.

Hopecat · 27/04/2006 15:40

A very early miscarriage.

maazaa · 27/04/2006 15:37

whoops meant eWcm.......

maazaa · 27/04/2006 15:36

Ladies, what's a chemical pg?

Am excited and for you hopeful ladies and sad for you wannabe - but at least if you see your gp, it might be something easily solved.

As for my CD - I think I'm on day 10 and definately had evcm according to the excellent website, so god knows what's going on. It's funny that I have never analysed by body or how it feels or how long my cycle is before. Wish I had been more observant!

Still, nearly the bank holiday weekend! Hurrah!

Hopecat · 27/04/2006 15:18

LOL at thrashing boobies lotta. Are people staring at you? Picturing them jumping about on their own.

There are precious few opportunities to get excited in life: enjoy yourself.

As you might have gathered from my recent posts, I'm excited too. I now have:

Achey boobs
Continued cramps
metallic taste in mouth
Starving hungry
Tired
Little white lumps on nips (TMI - I know)
Lots of weeing
loads of CM.

The only thing stopping me getting too excited is the chemical PG last month. This is all earlier and stronger, but it doesn't mean it won't happen again.

Wannabe, I'm sure it was the doggy hormones. It was faintly disturbing TBH. Grin

laughalot · 27/04/2006 14:46

Hi girls cd 23 for me and iv got thrashing boobies and loads of cm, trying to not get to excited but I cant help it.

Wannabe sorry about bfn hunny
