I know its only just the start of August but my next AF is not due until 5th September ish.

Sorry to hear AF has arrived for others that have to join me but here's hoping for lots of BFP's this month.

SOrry to hear that DD1 how many DPO was that. DO you think it is the clomid making your cycle longer?

ANyway baby dust to you and all of us in this positive thread, even though i want my AF to come so i can start clomid.

Natty, according to ovulation sticks, I ovulated on CD12/13. Then af arrived on CD30, so thats about 16/17 dpo. Yes I defo think clomid extended cycle. I spoke to a friend today who was also took clomid and this happened her too. It was my 1st cycle, so at least this cycle I know this might happen, so wont get so excited if I go over 28 days. Lets hope your af arrives soon so you can at least get started.

Hi I'm still in the august tread at the mo but need to know some info, when do you take your temp? what is the temp all about? I know abit but not as much as you knowledgeable people and is there anything else I should look out for about ov-day time? I've been using ov-test for about 13 months now and not got any where!

andi0411 · 10/08/2006 02:03

Hi Babymad- i don't really know too much re: ov kits but i know that when my cervical mucous- nice term i know- becomes egg whitey then i am getting ready to ovulate and i bd then more than ever. I think with the temp thing that when it rises you are actually ov then and that, i think, is the prob for some people as they are actually ov then and it may be too late. People on here will know loads more than me and be able to help you more. i just bd reg from cd 8 to cd 20- that covers all bases as i'm not a late or early ovulator- just bad at getting pg!!!! xx

Hi all

Hope everyone is planning a bd fun filled weekend.

Planning on it every second day nw as advised by specialist.

Apologies for tmi, but here is some more.

Apparently dh has some odd shaped 'lil' guys...lol... doc said nto to worry though.

I am imagining them swimming around with square heads or something. Would love to look at them under a microscope!

ROFLMAO

WantAbabyNOW · 11/08/2006 08:56

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 16:39

Hi

To be honest i have not been good recently as i was getting bored of taking folic acid for nearly a year. As of next AF though i am going to go back to taking it plus EPO and Zinc.

Babymad4num3 · 12/08/2006 00:40

Just been reading the "Graduates from the positive" and it's been comfrimed i'm doing it doggy this month. Thanks Natty1806 it's been really useful reading. Also been getting some pain so i think on monday i will be joining you and i tuck a test (couldn't wait) this morning BFN CD26 (which i did CD25 with my 2nd DS and it was a pos) But i will take one on Monday CD28 then too, but not holding out any hope 13mths of neg what makes this month any differant

andi0411 · 12/08/2006 06:23

Hi babymad- sorry for your bfn- but don't rule out a bfp yet- no 2 pg's are the same- so i'm told!! This reliable source was my best friend and mother of 2- her first pg went un-noticed for 5 months as they weren't ttc, she had periods and no symptoms and only slight pot belly, with baby 2 she did ttc and her periods stopped, she was very sick and got massive at 8 -12 weeks!! crazy.

andi0411 · 12/08/2006 06:24

ps I forgot to add- i am on the doggy- god i hate that expression- band wagon too!!!

Sorry to hear Af might be on her way for you, but good news is your going to gp on monday and he may be able to help you.

Glad people are reading the graduate threads, doggy seems the way to go.

at your mum's friend Andi. I think it is true that every pregnancy is different however i don't really know as i have never been pregnant this is just from things i have been told.

Hello all, I am coming over from Positive August today as AF showed her ugly face. Looking forward to going back and reading this whole thread to see how everyone is doing. Have a great weekend.

coggy · 12/08/2006 11:53

Hey MrsMc....you, me and wannaBe are all cycle buddies this month.

desperate2bmum · 12/08/2006 14:41

gonna be doggy all the way for me too ohh cant wait lol.
have stocked up on some sexy undies for this month so dp is in for a real treat
i want to try and make it fun and not a chore...i know after a few more months it probably will be but hey from experience of being pg before..i went right off sex so gonna cram as much in now as i can

trace2 · 12/08/2006 17:06

Hey MrsMc....you, me and coggy and wannaBe are all cycle buddies this month, mine came last night

muminamini · 12/08/2006 18:47

Hi Ladies

Not been on for ages I know because I decided not to think about it all this month as I was getting so stressed out...and I was obsessed last month with reading on here and thinking about ttc constantly!

AND IT WORKED!!!
BFP!

Tested today and there it was - am in total shock. (Clear Blue Digital)

When I get some time I will read back to see how you all got on this month as I have wondered but just had to try not to think about ttc so much.

Chilling out about it obviously worked for me...I was convinced there would be no way this month as DH and I hardly BD'd at all as didn't feel like it what with all that was going on at the time but the time we did do it was doggy and legs in the air after....so it must be THE way to get PG

Well here's hoping it's sticky and all the baby dust in the world to you all
