When i got pg with my ds, i know i got pg on cd18 and i got a neg on the day AF due (i knew i was pg though) didn't test pos until 4 days late.

Similar this time, i know we only bd on cd 18 and 20, so quite possibly the same as with my ds.

Heron - Got my fingers and everything else (except my legs) crossed for you.

Teuch - Congratulations

Cathers - Sorry the old bat showed up, lets hold hands for the next few weeks

Sure - Do a clearblue digital, I know they are expensive but the result is clear

X - Welcome I'll also hold your hand.

Hi to anyone I have forgetten, I am back to work day after my bad news earlier in the week and ready to get back on the rollercoaster again, I will not let this beat me

hi, so far managed not to test. AF still not here. it will be just my luck that this would be the month that AF is delayed.

anyway, good night to all, will post tomorrow.

Ah...some nice news here from you positives and cautiously positives. My AF came today. 28 days prompt.At least I know my cycle is back to normal.
Still wasted several quid doing TWO CB tests this morning though so Heron really try to wait until Saturday and I hope you get a BFP.

Eleveld · 25/04/2008 08:05

also body temperature gone back to normal. up until last night, it was still high.

Hi Heron
I'm so sorry, we are both in the same boat, Pregnancy test are evil,had I not of tested so early I never would have seen the +ive result,lets hold hands even tighter for this cycle, and promise each other never to test until we are at least awake.

Eleveld · 25/04/2008 10:23

Am so sorry Heron23 and littlemissdaisy - luck after yourselves and better luck for next month

YouCantTeuchThis · 25/04/2008 10:29

Oh Heron, that's such a downer

Here's to the clomid, and this being a successful month for you.

I was only due today so I am still very cautiously pleased...plus all sickness gone today . Time will tell.

littlemissdaisy · 25/04/2008 13:37

I meant a week late not awake Durghh!!!

hi cathers, good morning, thank God cramping getting less now. have decided not to start on clomid this month. will give nature another month because i ovulate and have regular cycles.

will start acupuncture instead.

Hi Guys, got back into the swing again last night Not very hopeful as I have to have a natural cycle before I can go back on the Clomid, gunna give it a go tho

supersteph · 29/04/2008 13:42

So sorry for you both.

Af also arrived for me yesterday

So I am now on round 3 of Clomid 100mg.

Fingers crossed for BFP'S soon.

xx

ohjoy · 29/04/2008 14:11

hi all, sorry AF got you super

i am going for acupuncture on thursday. i figure it is the best course of action for me to lower stress and boost blood flow to my ovary, womb etc.

i am feeling quite happy about this. this is going to be my 3rd cycle ttc. i know it is early days. one thing i have learnt is to lower my expectations every month.

Thoughts of ttc no longer fill my every waking moment, unlike the last 2 months

beckmo · 29/04/2008 21:07

Sorry to hear that Heron... same thing happened to me last month and it was really upsetting.
