We're all in the same boat and on clomid...

Hi stone - I guess as long as follies are growing it should matter if it's later in the cycle? My iui was cd17 I think.

i lost you all again for ages! im back lol. been so busy last week or so. will read back tonight hopefully

Stonebaby I just had iui on Monday past and it was day 21. I only got one mature follicle and it took ages to grow then halted at 17mm. I dont have any hope of it working. I've read that follicles which grow slowly and don't grow more are not good quality. I had trigger shot on Sunday and didn't feel any different afterwards (had a pregnancy from previous iui and felt awful from 24 hours after trigger shot and it lasted 10 days.) This has made me think even more that I haven't ovulated and the follicle maybe didn't even contain an egg? I don't know if that is even logical. My AMH is ow at 4.6 and with my previous iui treatments when i conceived my son (first cycle) they were higher and within the normal range.

For you Ginger....

Aw thanks, I've had 2 today,

I know you're in 2ww so here's some and

Should be 2dpo. Let the fun begin! Symptom one and two sneezing so not hay fever and very sore rib. Really aches and kills with deep breaths

Too vigorous with the dtd marathon kurama

lol didnt think of that one ginger !!! it is possible

All the best Kurama. I am also in my 2ww. Foolishly just tested this morning at 8dpo and it was a bfn. I know it's far too early for a bfp - but I am not hopeful at the moment.

fx for you triplespin

Thanks Kurama. Cervix today low and feeling bit harder - so think I am out unfortunately. Disappointed.....

What is fx??

Fingers crossed

Ahhh

hi. not been on for a while. I got pregant on my first go on clomid. was told I had 1 folical. turned out I had an eptopic pregancy. which was very hard. started my second go in clomid and had a scan today. my left ovary has 4 floicals size 20/22 right has 2 size 21/24 both have 3 smaller ones 16/18 can anyone tell me if this is good feeling worried

Sounds alot ridgeay. My clinic abandon the cycle if more than 3 follicles are bigger than 18mm. Do you feel ok? Any abdominal pains, bloating, nausea?? If you get any of these it's important to get seen to immediately as it can mean you are overstimulated and need fluids immediately.

Ridgway the size is good but it seems to be a lot. My fc will make me abandon the cycle

Ridgway - sounds a lot. They could do follicular reduction if required?

when I spoke to the consultant she was asking me if I was ok with twins. which I am. so she just told me to do ovulation test and get down to it. last cycle I had cist. which showed on day 11 scan but non this time.. no pain or bloating. I feel really good actually im just worried. After what happened last month. I dont think I can go through it again

Hi everyone, back from holiday feeling refreshed! AF arrived on sat. Hadn't expected to have another cycle before starting ivf so have last 5 clomid pills to take (round 5) but fell asleep last night and forgot so will be doing days 3-7 instead of usual 2-6.

Initial appointment with ivf clinic is on Tuesday. Can't face going loopy ttc this month as I don't think it will work anyway so just going to make an effort to be happy and shag just for fun.

ridgeway I don't know about these things as have never been monitored. So long as you're keeping your fc informed then they can share responsibility for decisions about your care..

Hi ladies, I'm day 27 so 13 dpo and thinking of testing tomorrow or Tuesday. Been feeling rather tired and getting very bloated this weekend. Not sure if that's something to worry about?

Also better to wait for AF or to test....?

london tricky question - test but keep in mind that your body may be playing up... Fx tho

dont u just hate the women body always plays tricks on u. id test a day after af due if it helps x

im worried this month. ive been oving between cd10-18 last 4 months ...so says opks. I had fairly dark opk test on cd19 and I think a slightly lighter one on cd20 but last night I had a really sharp short stabby pain and coz I was out all day I forgot to test again and dh has been to tired last 3days to dtd... please tell me we didnt stop to soon and I hope to god I didnt ov yest. I dont always get ov pains so not sure what they are like
