Hello Ladies

I was hoping I could join this thread too

DH and I have been ttc for just over a year, I am 33 he is 31. Had no previous problems with periods, they have been regular and problem free since I was a teenager. Been off the pill for almost three years so reckon it should be out of my system now Did the temperature charting for a couple of months and found it useful for getting to know my cycle. Everthing seemed fine, had the dips and rises in the right places. In January we both went to get a check up, just to put my mind at rest (a bit of a worrier) and all those test came back fine but we were prescribed clomid as it can sometimes just give you the kick start you need.

Now on cycle 2 of clomid and CD29, I am predicting AF might show up on Wednesday or Thursday (although I really hope she doesn't)I was planning on testing tomorrow but know it could still be a little early.

Symptoms I have noted this month (Since starting ttc I think i have had them all over the months ) Heavy boobs that seem very full and more noticeable, I feel like Jordan. I was sick on Saturday night, didn't feel ill or anything just did a sicky burp then was about to do another and had to run to the toilet to throw up....then i was fine again. This could be done to the acid reflux i have had for the last week or so and my veins on my tummy seem very noticeable. Was very tearful on Friday night and Saturday morning (thought AF was coming) Think that's it

So do you think it is too early to test?

Baby dust to everyone

Clwc · 22/06/2009 10:30

Hello NBelle

I know Clomid can shorten or lengthen your cycles, but how long are yours normally? Then I can say if it's too early to test or not! lol. If they're normally 28 days, then go for it!! Fingers crossed. x

I'm CD 43/44. Even though I missed the fmu, I still think I'm going to test today. Again.

NBelle · 22/06/2009 10:41

I am usually 27-28 days but last month i was 32 days (first round of clomid) I think i ovulated a day earlier this month than last (using ovulation sticks) so really I should hold off until Thursday to test but it is just so tempting to test early.

Clwc · 22/06/2009 10:55

Well, if you should hold off until Thursday...

Have you got any Internet cheapies in?

If you've only got supermarket bought HPTs, then STEP AWAY!!!
(There. Have I done my duty?)

Clwc · 22/06/2009 12:06

BFN

NBelle · 22/06/2009 12:56

Sorry on the BFN Clwc.

I have both, shop bought and internet cheapies, but not sure how much I trust those internet cheapies......does anyone know anyone who has had a positive on those?

Slow day at work so spending all my time day dreaming about babies
