Good Morning Ladies
aalaa Have a look on Fertilityfriend.com , you can plot your tempertures on a chart for free. It explains everything on there, i hope tahat is hepful to you.
sarah Hope af stays away!
annalou Well done!, I have to do something and quick , I have put all my weight back on that I lost to get on clomid, I got my bmi down from 32 to 29, but its gone back up!
Meluv Well done to you too, you both put me to shame ! I need something else to focus on instead of ttc ! Good luck for your scan today!
A friend of a friend has been trying for dc 2 since having dc1 12 years ago was discharged from our fertility unit a few months ago saying that clomid, injections etc had not been successful and there was nothing else they could offer. However after three months later she conceived naturally! She said she had completely given up and didn't even realise her af was late! Just thought i would share that with you all.

Af arrived so starting round 5 today.

Hi meluv I got my 3 cycles from the doctors and they can't prescribe me with any more, so we went private and the consultant won't give me any more until I lose 3 stone. I have been clmid free since jan I'm still using opk's jan I didn't get anything but feb I got a positive but my day 21 bloods showed a score of 18 so not good really

Annalou84 · 07/03/2013 15:39

What cd are you on??

Meluv · 07/03/2013 16:40

An cd 12 lovely I was not expecting good news at all today I was so surprised by it thought I wud over react to 100mg so happy I can't do ok more than bed rock away x when do you girls think I will ovulate ?

Sarahb8990 · 07/03/2013 17:51

Hi meluv I had a 16mm follie at 12 days aswel I ovulated day 16 making my cycle 31 days but we all are different so try the opks they will be your best way of knowing x

Alexandra6 · 07/03/2013 18:45

Girls I had my 18mm follie on day 18 and think I ov'd on day 19 or 20, is that too late in the cycle for BFP, do you know? Sounds like you're growing follies faster than me (am just glad I am though!)

Sarahb8990 · 07/03/2013 18:56

No Alex that's not too late at all everyone is different it will just mean your cycle will be that bit longer

Alexandra6 · 07/03/2013 19:14

Hopefully nine months long Wink

Meluv · 07/03/2013 21:04

What cd r u Alex an Sarah now I can't do OPK it all stresses me out to much x

Sarahb8990 · 07/03/2013 21:07

Try and do what I do then, dtd every other day from cd 12 to cd 24. Or when would be best for your cycle. That way your giving it the best chance but not stressing about when your ovulating and if you have done it enough an around the right time etc x good luck

Alexandra6 · 07/03/2013 21:26

I'm on cd 21 but as I ov'd (I think/hope) on day 19 or 20 I guess I need to wait until day 34 ish to test?

Meluv · 08/03/2013 15:23

That's what I've started to do Sarah from cd every other day so hopefully fingers crossed this may be my lucky cycle ... Alex that is worst waiting for af or thinking will I get BFP hate that wait good look girlies x

Sarahb8990 · 08/03/2013 18:35

Well af has shown her ugly face a day early. Well onwards and upwards onto cycle 3 of 100mg
How is everyone getting in?

aaLaa · 08/03/2013 21:46

mumalah · 08/03/2013 23:18

Forgot to say night sweats very common!xxxx

Floweroct · 10/03/2013 18:02

Can I join in please I don't think I've posted on here before. I'm on my first month of clomid 50mg had my scan cd12 on Friday and have an 18mm follicle, had negative opks so far any ideas when I might ov?

Also told I had thin uterus lining and so have been prescribed oestrogen anyone else had this?

Alexandra6 · 10/03/2013 18:36

Hello flower exciting isn't it, I'm on my first cycle too. We're you ovulating beforehand, do you have PCOS? Your follie size is good! I had 18mm on day 18 so slower growing than yours. I think I ov'd a couple of days later as I had a positive OPK the day after the scan. One thing though, I did clear blue as you get a clear smiley face and it was smiley at 12pm but then negative in the evening so I could have missed it if I hadn't tested twice. Obviously look out for ewcm but I didn't get any, am hoping clomid just dries it up. Going to use conception plus or whatever that fertility lube stuff is called next cycle! I also got stomach cramps and hoped that was ov pain.

On the uterus lining, mine was healthy but I read it can thin so I ate Brazil nuts (heard pineapple helps too) and drank a glass of full fat milk a day (as a choc milkshake!) and ate lots of protein and fruit/veg. Don't know if that helped but thought I'd mention it!

Meluv · 12/03/2013 12:31

It's oh so quiet on hear lately come girls were are u all an what's the news xxx

aaLaa · 12/03/2013 12:39

Hey meluv, No news my way, have a scan on Friday. Going to use opk's thus month and my thermometer should arrive by post to tomorrow,

How is everyone else??
