First of all can I just say.....FAB link Natty!!
Welcome to The Linker's Club!!!

And thank you, thank you for that site...I've tried to get hold of the person who posted that but not heard anything back yet......that's excellent....I'm off to read....

BTW I did use agnus castus one month but got scared off it because it was the only month I didn't register on a opk.
If the clomid fails then I will go to a qualified herbalist (or whatever they are!!) and seek proper advice on it.

Thank yooooooooooooooooooooooooou!!!

Happy ironing!!!! [yawn emoticon]

Natty1806 · 10/08/2006 18:33

Right i really have to go now and do the ironing, but will be back on tomorrow. Fingers crossed for you.x

i have gone to cd 62 before getting af so might be in for the long haul and last af lasted almost 3 months so ten days late is only a guess i think it might be more, because of last af i was on lots of tablets to stop bleeding so i guess that might be why af is late. I am going on clomid because the doctor at the fertility clinic said i am not ovulating properly.

Natty1806 · 10/08/2006 20:52

3 months of bleeding poor you my longest cycle was 70 days so know how you feel.

Lets hope we get our AF's soon so we can start clomid and then get some BFP's

I am only on CD16 so a few weeks to wait yet. Going to make an appointmet on Monday to have a chat with gp and see if i can persuade him to give me the period inducing tablet on CD35, clinic said to have it if i go past 42 days but i really just want to crack on, i think if i take my chart to prove i have not ovulated he might let me.

Rachee - is this your month off clomid but first month of ttc since MC? If so are you allowed back on clomid after next AF?

WantAbabyNOW · 11/08/2006 07:37

Nat I asked the s pecialist about af inducing drug and they said it would not provide the type of period I was looking for (like how many are there??) apparently it brings on a fake period which can effect if you ov next time or something? Its like th period on the pill. Also told that it is actually a form of contraceptive?

When you go to gp pls let me know because I am almost on day 80 and this is driving me mad! Bonkas! Insane! Think of all that stored up pms!!!

Had athletics carnival today and am now crispy red all down one side and you can see where my sunnies have been on my face. Excellent! I now look like bloody ronald mcdonald!

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 08:12

LOL

Yes i will speak to Gp about this i am aiming to go in next week, i think yours is right that it is not a proper period but ffs we just want to start taking clomid and even if it messes you up for a month at least in 28/35 days we will be on our way to taking our 2nd lot and can go from there.

Did you get my e-mail the other day or have i sent it to some stranger?

WantAbabyNOW · 11/08/2006 08:25

I think that taking the whatever drug sounds good. I am sick of counting the days!

No, no email... send again!!! I will look for it to come in.

Spoke to my friend today who is due at xmas. She bought the lamp that matches the themed stuff I bought.. she is going to have it too...

Also, sister in law is donating eggs to her cousin and was just about to have eggs removed but not enough eggs and so she has to do whole thing again. I know this sounds terrible but I was kind of glad because I would at least like to be pg before she is able to assist someone else to be! Does that sound weird?

I think it might have smething to do with the fact that dh mother (mil) is focusing on the cousin getting pg and is keeping informed on what is happening. Parent in laws were visiting week before our first fertility appoint and they knew we were going and yet they have not even called to see how it went. She can be a bit like that. Unless something is to do with her girls she is not really interested or involved. Was the same with our wedding. My mum calls constantly though...lol

When are you meant to test? I had pains that I thought may have been ov pains last weekend and temp was up and also ferns. BD like crazy in high hopes. Now wondering when would be able to get accurate result. Prob nothing but can always dream.

Did to pg test at specialist and bfn. Not suprised though cause was only a few days after had pain.

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 08:35

try testing next weekends, you maybe well be pregnant.

What is you e address again so i can double check it?

Have you brought a whole nursery set? Does that not upset you seeing it sat there? I brought my friends baby a jumper but have not had chance to see her yet and know the baby would be too big for it so it has been thrown to the back of a cupboard.

WantAbabyNOW · 11/08/2006 08:52

lol...thrown to the back of the cupboard!

I think sometimes I get frustratetd... then I usually buy something else. We decided to paint one of our rooms like a nursery as it needed to be repainted. Then we decided to buy some furniture as there was a huge sale on and we got it so cheap. Then of course one does need to put little clothes in the little wardrobe...so I bought some. GOD I AM BAD!!!

Fortunately everything is unisex. When I am feeling like giving up out of sheer frUstration I go have a look and feel a lot better. In a way I guess it is also ushing me. I would have gone sorted this all out a long time ago but really chickened out!

Email is [email protected]

Will maybe test next weekend then. I thought maybe after smear test af would show up... now on day 76

I really dont want to get to day 100. I think I am scared of that.

Just found really cool computer that predicts ov and pg and a whole heap of other things. Is about $4000 though!

WantAbabyNOW · 11/08/2006 08:56

Does anyone here have a baby comp???

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 08:56

You are mad but if it helps you then thats fine, it would just stress me out even more i think.

Will e mail you later as i am at work. How long have you waited before ? Or do you lose count?

i have downloaded the TCOYF software that does all you charting for you as i can't seem to make head not tail of it, think it was about £30.

coggy · 11/08/2006 08:58

Hello all!!
I downloaded th TCOYF freebee...I've got 8 days left...I really like it.

I'm looking forward to being able to used my new monitor too Natty.

OP posts:
WantAbabyNOW · 11/08/2006 09:01

Hmmm.. work... so glad it is now friday evening!

I think I am mad. Cant help myself though. I dont like shopping for clothes anymore etc... lol.

I am just writing down my temps (although have nt for last 2 days) and counting the days. Also do saliva test on most mornings and record that in diary too.

Doctors said not to bother!! I think the last one I saw was a nutter too!

Have you bought your clomid yet or are you waiting to see if af arrives?

Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 09:48

Got to wait for gp to give me the prescription but i will then buy it straight away, it's like it is some magic bean that is going to end all my sorrow, - wishfull thinking.

Coggy - i did the 15 day free trail but liked what i saw so i brought it.

One little question - how much sex should you have? After AF i start off well aiming for every other day but then it fades to about 2 /3 times a week, should i put in more of an effort? DP and i find it hard to do it every other day due to being tired, out etc etc and would not want to do it just because we have too, if you see what i mean.

coggy · 11/08/2006 10:04

We always peak too early!!
BD like mad and then run out of steam as we get to the crucial time!!!

It all feels like a gamble!!!

I found a really good site recommended by someone on here the other day....if you like to follow plans etc, this will be perfect for you...I'll try to do another link.....

see what you think

OP posts:
Natty1806 · 11/08/2006 10:29

Sounds good, but for the two week wait do you really not have any sex??

Did you do this plan this month? I am going to try it next month when i am put on clomid.

coggy · 11/08/2006 10:36

I only found the plan a day or so ago but it looks sensible.

DH is normally to knackered and relieved to stop for a while tbh!!!!!
After ov we just get on and do it whenever we fancy.

OP posts:
coggy · 11/08/2006 10:37

...and also ...my two week wait isn't that long so it's nice to rest!!!!!

OP posts:
Rachee · 11/08/2006 20:57

answer for natt - 'Rachee - is this your month off clomid but first month of ttc since MC? If so are you allowed back on clomid after next AF?'
yes, first month after m/c.... so back on clomid next period. cd10 at moment, so going to be bonking every other day till next af ! Determined.....

but according to doc, those little 'tadpoles' ( sperm) can survive 5 days inside..... so missing the odd day is fine. LOL

xXx cd10

Rachee · 11/08/2006 21:18

ooops sorry only cd9.

got carried away...

Natty1806 · 12/08/2006 08:33

Goo luck Rachee - hope they do live 5 days as sometimes we do go without for 3/4 days if we can't see eachother or are just being lazy.

Think maybe i need to pop down to Ann summers ready for next month. LOL
