Miss Flick these are definatly PMT signs big time hot flushes last night and AF due today, that is the sign I get when its on its way. Every month at this time I am a mess!

Nonu How are you, last month was awful for you and it is good and encouraging to hear that you have got through it. Sometimes the future just seems to bleak! Totally sick of day counting and blood tests, peeing on sticks etc!! Good luck to you this month, keeping everything crossed for you x

Thanks Stac!

Jobob big congratulations you must be on cloud 9 right now! Good weight too!! xxx

How exciting, congratulations jobobpip08, it must have been such a wonderful moment to take him in your arms, sending lots of to both you and the little angel, hope he gives u all the happiness that you deserve...........

Congratulations jobobpip08! Hope you're all settling in well at home :)

Hope your AF doesn't show up today confu3ed. I am feeling very emotional and hopeless today which are my classic PMT symptoms and my AF is due tomorrow so I'm not holding out much hope.

Big congratulations jo, hope you're settled at home with your LO.

I'm doing okay stac thanks for asking, dragging myself through the days and falling into bed at the earliest opportunity :) Not managing to get on the computer much at all to keep in touch here and nothing is getting done round the house. We're hosting Christmas this year and I haven't anything organised yet!

MissFlick sorry about PMT signs :( Sending hugs, wine and chocolate your way.

Confu3ed so sorry you're still having a rough time. Sending hugs and goodies your way too.

Waves to everyone else.

Hi to all my old girlies,

Need some advice, cos I didn't take my own advice!!!!

I've just taken an OPK & it's got two lines & I know PCOSers shouldn't use then but... - the story goes on day 22 I bled a little so thought I was on early - which also is a miracle I made it that far into the month going by my recent experience, then day 23 I didn't bleed at all, today I have EWCM so thought what the hell, I'll take an OPK - now have two lines - does it mean I'm ovulating or am I getting my hopes up???

Thanks girlies

BTW - Congrats Jo but you know I've said that aready! xxx

Fairy never had any luck with the OPKs myself but I'd say the + result combined with EWCM sounds promising. You can ovulate at any point with PCOS (as my body proved to me!) and I had EWCM for a few days before the time when I must have ovulated. Now get off the internet and get shagging! Fingers crossed for you. xx

Thanks highheels!!!!

Congratulations jo!

Hugs to confu3ed and nonu, we are all here to support you. x

Hello everyone,

nonu and confused sorry to hear you've not been having a good time recently, it's really hard but there are lots of women on these threads who thought it wouldn't happen for them and it has. Fingers X it will be your turn soon.

I've had a rather odd week, felt v ropey but had had a BFN on sun then DH persuaded me to test again on fri and there was a v faint line, tested again today and it was there again. I'm going to test again tomorrow but it looks like it may be a BFP at long last. It wouldn't be possible for 2 tests to give false positives would it? The lines were faint. I don't want to get too excited about it though cos I'm worried about having another mc.

Oh wow reallygrumpy it definitely sounds like you're pregnant! I don't think it would be possible for two tests to give you lines and don't worry about how faint they are either. One of the girls on another thread I am on tested a couple of days after she had her HCG shot and the line she got on her test was very faint and only appeared after 4 minutes and that's with her knowing that she has had a big dose of the hormone injected into her.

Sorry fairy, I can't be any help with the OPKs as I have never persisted with them due to my irregular cycles. The EWCM sounds like a good sign though.

Thanks Higheels!

Wow really that sounds very positive, a line is a line, maybe try to test again first thing in the morning.

Fairy I use OPK's some months and have PCOS I generally get a positive on more than one day. However the month where my bloods showed no ovulation the tests said I did twice! So how reliable they are I am not sure.

No sign of AF only 2 days late now but I am always on time. Bit confused as I had all of the signs but nothing has happened. I still have very sore boobs though. I am a bit worried now and don't kn ow whether to POAS or not, another BFN would make me feel awful. That said not knowing is pretty bad too! Dilemma!!

xx

let us know how you get on really sounds promising though hun

fairy when i got bfp with rileigh i had ov'd late so get to it lol

high whens your scan? Early pregnancy is knackering isnt it

Hows everyone else? nonu and confu3ed are you feeling any better? X

Just had my HCG blood test- 0 HCG in my blood :( first month of Clomid has officially failed :(

Miss flick are you on 50mgs? It wasn't until my dose was increased to 100mg that my results increased. I know it must seem really bleak at the moment but my consultant told me when my results were low that clomid can take a few months to work as your body is getting used to it. Have you been given 3 months worth? X

I gave in and poas and bfn :( it was a cheapo test from eBay though but even so if I was pg surely it would show up? My dp seems to think it's too early to tell. I just don't know what to think I guess I am just having a month where my af will turn up really late??????

X

Sorry for your BFN confu3ed . I always doubt how reliable those ebay cheapies are though and your DP might be right too that it is just to early to tell. I am on 50mgs but my progesterone test showed that I had ovulated so was hoping for good things. Today was the pregnancy blood test which showed that I am categorically not pregnant. I have to make an appointment when my period arrives to see my doctor and discuss my next cycle.

Miss Flick apologies I misunderstood the test.
It's rubbish every month finding out that again it didn't work! I know too well the sinking feeling you get at that time of the month. Have to keep on saying it just wasn't the right time and it will happen.
When af starts it will be month 6 for me on clomid feels like years!!!

IF af starts you mean, all is not lost for you just yet xxx

Hey all, thanks for all your love and support...

Really this is just great news, hope this one sticks and fingers crossed.....

Cd-27 today and af should be there in the next two days, dont feel pregnant at all and we will just have to wait and see

Hello all, well POAS this am, a ££ one this time and it said PG 2-3 weeks so officially a BFP. I'm feeling a bit freaked out to be honest, can't believe it's true and v worried it might end in another MC.

stac when you got pg on metformin did you immediately stop taking the met? I'm trying to get hold of my cons cos I'm not sure whether to carry on taking it or not.

miss flick clomid didn't work for me 1st time, cycle 3 did so don't lose hope.

confused I didn't get a BFP until cd35 so it may still happen, fingers X'd.

Jo sorry, I was v self absorbed last time I posted and forgot to say huge congratulations on the safe arrival of your little one

Yipeeee huge congrats reallygrumpy! Everything crossed that you have a sticky bean there :) Glad the Clomid worked for you xx

Fingers crossed nonu x

congrats really, I know how worrying this time is but try to stay positive.

Hugs for Miss Flick

Everything crossed for those waiting for AF, hoping it doesn't arrive for you!

stac I had my 7 week scan last Monday and all was well (after a horrible fortnight of scans and blood tests when they first thought it was ectopic then they thought my HCG wasn't increasing enough then they thought there wasn't enough to see on scan for dates) but can't help still panicking that it will all go wrong. Am still waiting for appointment with midwife and date for 12 week scan. Am going to phone Drs and chase it up if I don't hear soon as I really want to get it before Christmas!!

Thanks miss flick hopefully the next cycle of clomid will be lucky for you

Congratulations really I can't imagine how happy you must be right now!!! :)

No happy news fir me this month, period pains and spotting have started so it's on it's way :( really gutted as I seemed to have symptoms should have known better! Just hope that this month will be a good one for me or af will be here at Christmas which will be awful! Especially with my sister and her bump coming down trying not to be envious but it's not working. Month 6 of clomid starting in a couple of days. Has anyone had it work for them after such a long time? Most people seem to conceive in the first few months.

confused I've had 4 cycles of clomid, 3 of 50mg and got pg on cycle 3 (then had mc), had a break then 1 cycle of 100mg which didn't work (no follicles seen on scans) so then the cons put me on metformin for a month and then I was going to do 2 cycles of met plus clomid. It was during a month of taking just met that I got pg. What I'm really trying to say in a long winded waffly way is don't lose heart, it can work. I think stac also got pg on met after quite a few cycles of clomid.
