Thought I'd get this party started. Here's the stats: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sHG9PPsOs0yIqgR-o2UXX_fdlCQXdVNLfmPpNOePPjQ/edit

May this bus yield many BFPs! Hoorah!

I like your positive thinking Amanda! Smile

Best of luck for the scan tomorrow Sammy Thanks

Kir maybe it's quiet because people are taking eskimo's lead and getting in some half term DTD action Wink

I'm still bloody bleeding (see what I did there?) and am worrying about how that'll impact on my lining if the clomid causes ovulation.
I had similar the cycle before DS was conceived. I bleed/spotted for 12ish days, ovulated day 16 then had the most horrendous period I've ever had. Dreading a repeat of that Sad

Kirjava · 28/10/2015 07:03

magpie hope af goes very soon.

Day off today, which is great. But I'm feeling really not very well. Queasy and snotty with sore ears Haloween Sad going to keep wrapped up with my cat and watch Netflix, with an endless supply of tea

Flybynight1 · 28/10/2015 07:30

amanda sorry for AF, but you're probably right!!! November BFP here you come!!!

sammy good luck with the scan today!! If the lining hasn't grown is it thick enough anyway?

magpie hugs for you!! Last time it happened were you on Clomid too?

eskimo keep at that BDing!! When do you think you'll likely be ovulating? I struggle with CD counting too!! Hehe

Kir sorry you're poorly :-( but sounds like a perfect duvet day!! Annoying if you had planned to do stuff though! Enjoy your day :-)

Day of hell yesterday, but hopefully today will be better!! :-)

Flybynight1 · 28/10/2015 07:33

Ps Ff changed it's mind this morning on my O date. I discarded the Saturday spike (cos it made the chart look bad!) but even with that in FF is now saying CD16 for O. I'm not sure what to believe!

Just popping in to show you all some love! GrinCakeFlowers

MagpieCursedTea · 28/10/2015 07:53

Hi pixa GrinCake

Kir I hope you feel better and get to enjoy your day off Thanks

Fly charts can be more trouble than they're worth sometimes. Hoping it was CD16 for O as that would give you a great chance!

I was on clomid the last time, I hadn't ovulated on the first round then had the long bleed but I ovulated after the long bleed which is when I had the horrendous period at the end of that. Does that make sense? I know it sounds confusing!

loopylou1984 · 28/10/2015 11:19

Fly - no it wasn't thick enough at last scan. It was 6mm and the bare minimum they like is 6.5mm. In the waiting room now, will update after. Xx

loopylou1984 · 28/10/2015 11:21

Ps. If your cd15 temp spike was wrong then id say ov could have been cd15/16 depending on what that temp would have been. Xx

eskimoflo · 28/10/2015 11:52

Good luck Sammy!

Amanda Sorry for AF Flowers November sounds like a good month for a BFP Smile

Magpie Hope AF buggers off soon Flowers

Kir Hope you feel better soon Flowers

Flyby Hope today is a better day for you Flowers

CD12 for me today and I have just found an abundance of very stretchy EWCM after going to the loo. Smile Waiting for DH to get home so I can jump him Grin

Hurrah for ewcm eskimo! Have you only started getting it since the larger clomid dose?

I'm wandering around town trying to find something I want to eat. Everything is making my stomach turn - waaaaa! I love food! Halloween Angry

loopylou1984 · 28/10/2015 13:24

No change, lining still 6mm, still no dominant follies. But still looking very good quality.
Back on Friday (my birthday Sad) for another scan.
The nurse spoke to the consultant and he said to carry on as long as we're happy to do so... So the waiting continues. Xx

Kirjava · 28/10/2015 13:26

sammy sorry you're still in limbo but keep up the hope lovely xxxxx

eskimoflo · 28/10/2015 14:04

Gah Sammy Flowers Willing on those follicles in the next few days! Hopefully one of them will get a spurt on for you!

Kir I thought I'd had it before, but last cycle (my first 150mg dose), I realised that I hadn't really! It's much thicker and much more stretchy than anything I've had before Grin

MagpieCursedTea · 28/10/2015 14:30

Sounds frustrating sammy, hope you get good news on your birthday!

Yay for ewcm eskimo, go forth and jump that DH Wink

DizzyNorthernBird · 28/10/2015 18:24

Hey! Hope everyone is well. Just quickly popping my head in as we've been busy the last few days so I've not even managed to lurk!

No news here, cd20, still no temp rise. Haven't had any ewcm since Saturday which is very unusual for me as I usually see fertile cm for several days and I only saw ew two or three days....

We haven't had the chance to dtd since Saturday either but I'm past caring for this month anyway. Feeling fucked off about ov being late yet again.

Off out for dinner soon so will try and catch up properly later Smile

DizzyMerry · 28/10/2015 22:01

Sorry you're still in limbo sammy. Hoping Friday's scan goes well for you.

Hooray for ewcm eskimo hope you managed to get a shag in!

I can't wait for AF to arrive so we can get going. Opks are still not dark enough to be classed as positive and I think I may be having an anovulatory cycle which is apparently common post mc.

Kirjava · 29/10/2015 07:35

dizzym hope your af arrives very soon so that you can get the wtf cycle out of the way.

Morning all. On my way to work feeling miserable. Af due tomorrow and I'm getting the usual signs of it being imminent. On a positive note, since taking b complex vits I haven't had pre-af spotting.

I've booked a gp appointment for a couple of weeks time to try to persuade him to let me have day 3 and day 21 blood tests.

Kirjava · 29/10/2015 07:39

dizzyn hope you had a lovely meal out. I'm sorry your ovulation is playing silly buggers Flowers

MagpieCursedTea · 29/10/2015 07:45

Morning all!

Just wrote a whole post and lost it, hope it's not going to be one of those days!

DizzyN waiting for ovulation can be so frustrating. Wouldn't it be great if we could decide ourselves when to pop out an egg? It would make things easier!

DizzyM hope you get that af soon so you can get on!

Kir hoping af stays away!

I think I might've finally stopped bleeding (don't want to jinx it!). I'm feeling quite ill today, all fluey. Off to work but at least it's my last day for the week.

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 29/10/2015 11:04

Amanda love your post. What a great way to think of it.

Kir queasy & snotty are good symptoms Wink Good luck at the gp appt although hopefully it won't be needed.

Hi Pixa I hope everything is good with you

Eskimo hooray for EWCM. This could be your month

DizzyN hope you are ok. Have you tried anything to try and bring ovulation forward at all

DizzyM hope you get Af soon so that you can start trying again.

Magpie fx that Af is over now.

Cd30 for me. Af due at the weekend. I don't have my usual pre Af symptom of wind but I think that's due to the fact I'm doing slim fast and drinking loads of water. I don't have any pregnancy symptoms either. On Saturday night we have been invited to a party. I plan on getting drunkety, drunk, drunk as I know Af will be arriving.

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 29/10/2015 11:05

Sammy goodness how did I forgot you. Sorry. I hope you get your birthday wish. I will be thinking of you and keeping everything crossed for tomorrow Thanks

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 29/10/2015 12:00

What are opinions on this. I think I'm just being dumb that's an evap line or an indent. It was a cheap boots test and I've broken it open as the plastic over the top I weed on and couldn't see properly. I'm not due on until Saturday or Sunday.

Beaut I can definitely see a line. Do another test! FX for you x x

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 29/10/2015 12:13

Eskimo I won't believe it it's probably a dodgy test or because I broke it. I'll get a frer later to use first thing tomorrow. Just to make sure before I drink my own body weight in wine at the weekend Smile
