Looking for others who took clomid & hcg. I'm currently 4dpo & could really do with some sucess stories or anyone in a similar boat to me, to help me stay positive!

Hayzee - how sweet and romantic - hope it went well.

Nicci - glad you had a lovely evening, enjoy your birthday meal tonight.

My AF finally put in an appearance yesterday afternoon, so I have my AFC scan next week. Not quite sure when as the clinic rang to say they can't do the appointment they gave me and offered me 4 alternatives, but when I rang back there was no answer so left message saying I'd turn up at the first of the 4 (tomorrow 11:30) unless I hear otherwise. Will call first in morning to double check.

I wouldn't call myself fit - I have to do the first session of the second week later and am dreading having to run for two minutes at a time. I went to our new local goth night last night. Was really nice as no Valentine's theme whatsoever, but I was a bit naughty and stayed at my ex's afterwards. Life would be so much less complicated if you could choose who you fall in love with, but then I wouldn't choose him and he would choose me, so it still wouldn't work .

well your more fit than me issy. Anyone got any plans for tonite, im cooking hubby a candlelit dinner for 2 at home then after im taking him on a trip to the london eye and its all a surprise. Hope you all have a good nite/weekend. xxx

Issy42 · 13/02/2009 18:25

Hayzee - you got AF in the not being pg sense, but really glad she arrived of her own accord for you and your body is working properly again IYSWIM.

Mine is dragging her heals, had some colour this morning but hasn't got any heavier, so presume will be here tomorrow. Need to do my third run (well mainly walking at this stage) of the week tonight so best get off home now - just on at work whilst waiting for the traffic to clear.

How's everyone else?

hayzee · 13/02/2009 15:40

hi started bleeding his morning quite heavy. But i know this is going to sound really weird but im glad i got my period for the fact that at least i got it as you know b4 i had 2 take provera and after that i had to wait 2 months so at least it is all working. I wont be taking clomid this month as hubby is working away but will still come on here to see how you are all doing. xxx

Issy42 · 12/02/2009 18:24

you got BFN Hayzee, but increased CM is a pg symptom, so really hope that's the reason AF staying away. Keeping those fingers tightly crossed.

Mine not arrived either, but temp still low and have that wanting to burst into tears for no reason feeling so sure she's on her way.

hayzee · 12/02/2009 15:51

well im sorry to hear that your bleeding nicci but think i might be joining you soon. I done another test this morning using first response and it was neg, been getting cramps pretty much all day cm very increased have to wear panty liner yuk, so just waiting for my period to arrive.

Issy42 · 11/02/2009 23:15

Nicci. Really, really sorry AF got you.

Hope AF is staying away for the right reasons this time Hayzee. Fingers crossed you get that BFP soon.

My temp dropped to coverline today too, so probably getting AF tomorrow. I wasn't expecting anything this month though. Trying to focus on my aim of getting fit before IVF instead. Have done two sessions of the couch to 5K programme so far (running from the back of my house to the front and back again), but got my new treadmill this morning, so can do it properly from now on.

no i done another test this afternoon and it was - but had no af cramps, and my boobs are still tender but just have to wait and see what happens im on cd 28 but not sure if i have to go by period 14 days after jab or by the way my periods were b4 the clomid as ive never had a proper period since starting the clomid (1st go had to take provera and b4 that my period went from 8th nov - 13 jan).
issy thanks 4 the hug makes you feel good talking to people who actually understand people just say never mind theres always next month grrrrrr.
nicci hopefully thats a good sign if your never this moody b4 a period im like a bear with a sore head usually.

hopefulnicci · 10/02/2009 16:57

Issy anything going on ur end?? I have been SO incredibly moody today, anyone that's come within 5 inches of me has had there head bitten off, i've never felt like this before, i feel like i'm going insane!

hayzee · 10/02/2009 09:42

thats all you need when u have done a 24hr shift is someone shouting at you. Hope you managed to get lots of sleep.

Issy42 · 09/02/2009 22:11

(((Hug))) both. Sorry you got BFNs but it is still early, so don't give up hope.

24-hour shift Nicci, crikey! Amazed you could stay awake that long. Surely that's against H&S regs. Sorry your boss shouted at you.

hopefulnicci · 09/02/2009 21:16

Don't feel down Hayzee, i did one today too at 11dpo and it's BFN too. Everyones different though & u've already said urself u don't show up till ur a week late. Keep ur chin up! Nothing much to report my end. Other than i just finished a busy 24hr shift to be shouted at by my boss in the 24th hour! last thing i needed! X

just a quick update i couldnt wait naughty i know but i done a test and it came back - so looks like im out for this month. im 13 dpo. Wont be taking clomid next month as hubby is working away so no point wasting it. I will do another test on sat as by my period and not the hosp 14 days after ovualtion im due on well between 14-21. I know i might have done it too early and so it might not show up but cant help feeling that it hasnt worked. The hosp have told me not to do one till thursday so will test maybe then but getting fed up of seeing neg. Sorry i know i feeling sorry for myself but on a bit of a downer today.

hayzee · 09/02/2009 12:01

yeah lets hope so. The cramps have stopped now, although my boobs are still quite tender although this does happen occasionally before a period so will just have to wait and see. How are you all doing nicci any more symptoms yet?

Issy42 · 08/02/2009 17:34

Fingers crossed that they're implantation cramps and not period ones Hayzee.

hayzee · 08/02/2009 17:07

well not sure whats going on but since last night ive been getting cramps a bit like period ones so not sure if im going to get my period or not, im 12 dpo

hayzee · 07/02/2009 11:03

hi going 2 test next week as not due my period yet and dont show until usually week late so there aint no point. My boobs are quite tender but i do get that when im due a period my cm is normal so just have to wait and see.

Issy42 · 07/02/2009 02:00

I'm not testing Hayzee because I have more chance of winning the lottery than being pg from one BD using withdrawal method even if it was on the right day . I'm not even temping - just did the week of ov to know when to expect AF and will start again Monday to see drop.

I didn't have any cramps when I was pg nicci, so don't worry. The last cycle (without clomid or trigger) I had quite thick, white cm during the first week after ov but then thins out to more watery consistency and less and less of it until AF arrives. That's what I seem to have again this time. When I was pg last time, AF was due at weekend and had the really thick CM from the Wednesday before.

hopefulnicci · 06/02/2009 18:06

I STILL DON'T HAVE ANY CRAMPS! MAYBE VERY VERY MILD ONES FOR A SHORT WHILE TODAY IF I THINK ABOUT IT REALLY HARD!! STILL GOT THE OCCASSIONAL SHOTTING PAINS IN BOOBS ANYONE ELSE GOT THAT? HAYZEE/ISSY WITHOUT GROSSING YOU OUT TOO MUCH WHAT'S UR CM LIKE? OPPS JUST REALISED I'M IN CAP LOCKS! hAYZEE YOU MUST BE CLOSE TO TESTING RIGHT? HOW MANY DAYS NOW SINCE UR SHOT? MUST BE OUT OF UR SYSTEM BY NOW X

hayzee · 06/02/2009 15:59

Issy42 · 05/02/2009 11:57

Great news ttcbby2, that must have been so reassuring to see. Hope the other thing goes away for you.

Fingers crossed for you nicci and hayzee, but don't abandon me when you get those BFPs .
