oh mistletoe I hope your blood test brings you a complete, clear BFP. Don't be disheartened, its not over until AF says so, and you have the whole thread with fingers crossed for you.
soontobe Im quite organised and need a clearly researched plan for most things but I've had to learn to be a bit more pragmatic since being diagnosed with PCOS because there aren't any stats to show what works and the success rate. What works for one person probably won't work in the same way for another. Its very frustrating but after doing a small amount of research into PCOS it became clear its too varied, and every approach to it has to be tried and tweaked to suit the individual.
pebbles Im hoping for good news for your tube.
Also, Ive had HCG - I had a bit of a reaction to it so I may not be the best person to ask, but I took some painkillers before I went in and they helped. I would book at least the following day off work just in case though - a friend of mine had hers on a tuesday and was back in work fine on Thursday.
rosebud I can almost guarantee that everyone on this thread has reacted that way to pregnancy news at some point. I know I have. I even made my own thread under a different name about getting a call from DH while I was in work to warn me that friends of ours had announced their pregnancy on fb and i had to lock myself in the toilets because I couldn't stop crying. I had been friends with the couple for 15 years and they are lovely people but I couldn't help my reaction, although I had the inevitable guilt afterwards.
You can't help it and it doesn't make you a bad person. Its a natural reaction to something that can feel so bloody unfair a lot of the time.
Love your BRING IT ON attitude to your next cycle though 
cobbles fingers crossed for this cycle of clomid!
pollypoppins You can only take Clomid on certain days of your cycle so if you're not ready until after christmas and you have long cycles, you could believably have to miss one because your DP/DH is away and then another long cycle may take you until you're ready anyway?
I had to rearrange my follow up appointment after being prescribed Clomid because I had to wait for AF to start before I could take them and i ended up with 140 day cycle. I was also meant to miss my next cycle because DH was going away, but as its turned out, I'm on day cd52 and he's going away tomorrow.
Also, at my first appointment, I had bloods taken, was prescribed metformin and was given a LOT of information. Ive posted this on a few threads now, but I would definitely advise taking your DH with you and getting him to write the info down (I'm saying this as I went on my own as DH was working and i forgot a lot of the info that they gave me). Also, I now write down any questions that I have and its DH's job to make sure we ask them im rubbish at this as i get a bit upset by the fact we need to see a doctor to help us have a baby
Good luck with all your changes though, they sound so exciting!
So, Im on cd52 with some low down cramping but no AF. I've POAS twice but they were cheapies and now Im wondering if I should just do the last one I have and go from there?
By my calculations, if I did ov this cycle (which day 21 bloods indicated possibly not or possibly did but later than expected), I would only be 3-4 weeks along now, maybe too early for a cheapy test?
But then I keep thinking that maybe Im just getting my hopes up. Dh is going away tomorrow for a few days so I may use my last cheap test while he's away. We're on holiday soon and I definitely want to do another test before we fly, just to make sure!
Also, just to finish this epic post, my best friend is coming to stay this weekend and she has a dd so a lot of conversation will be child-focused. I love her but her dd was conceived by accident (pill failure and her DP was told his chances of naturally having a child is around 20-30%) so its very hard for her to understand, although she tries very hard.
Cant believe we've talked our way to almost 1000 posts!!
