So I thought I would start a new thread as we reached 1k comments so can't post!!! @chloedancer897 @Luna1108 sorry will try tag others !
anyway my app says af in 4 days I'm so emotional today! Over thinking even thinking is it right for my and partner to go forward together! I know I could test but I'm just not mentally prepared too 😢

AF on its way Sad. Gutted. I don't understand why this isn't happening. How do people get pregnant so easily. Xx

Marvellouslymadmum · 01/12/2021 11:56

@J90A sorry af showed for you, I know exactly how you feel. I was one of those who go pregnant easily 16 & 17 years ago but now - nothing!
I'm still sitting here not knowing what's going on, temps still up and down, opk still up and down, even my apps have given up predicting what's going on!

J90A · 01/12/2021 12:35

@Marvellouslymadmum Aw I'm sorry that's not working it's so frustrating isn't it! It's a total guessing game. Well my AF hasn't shown yet. This is TMI but I have brown when I wipe had one time it was red and that's been it. BFN this morning and temp dropped to 36.2 this morning so expecting today but still not here. I just want to get started on the next cycle. X

Marvellouslymadmum · 01/12/2021 18:12

@J90A I had in my head that clomid would give us a much better chance, not less!! I just don't know what's going on in there lol

J90A · 01/12/2021 19:02

@Marvellouslymadmum I totally understand im the exact same just now still no AF but brown when I wipe sorry TMI!! I've never had this before I've got slight cramps too. I keep moving from hopeful to upset. I don't know what my body is doing! It's driving me crazy. Xx

Marvellouslymadmum · 01/12/2021 19:10

@J90A I had that at the beginning of the year, it was at the end of a 53 day cycle! I've a feeling this one could be even longer 😑 cd41 now and still no confirmed ovulation!

J90A · 01/12/2021 19:25

Oh really. Did af eventually come? I know I ovulated 16/17 days ago. Are you cycles usually that long? Xxx

Marvellouslymadmum · 01/12/2021 20:24

@J90A no I have the odd long one here or there, it eventually turned up yes, didn't know what was going on! This one will be the longest for me though as I haven't ovulated yet!!
How long is your Lp usually?

J90A · 01/12/2021 20:32

@Marvellouslymadmum I've never really know when I've ovulated on clomid but it's been 27-30 day cycles. Before that I was very irregular so I've no clue really 🤦‍♀️ waiting game ! Xx

Marvellouslymadmum · 01/12/2021 21:01

@J90A ahh ok, it's quite easy to pinpoint your ovulation if you use opk and bbt to confirm, you're probably due af I'd say so if it doesn't arrive test again!

J90A · 01/12/2021 21:04

@Marvellouslymadmum I had 21 day blood tests last week so I know I'm 16/17dpo I was due sun/mon. See what tomorrow brings! Xx

Marvellouslymadmum · 01/12/2021 21:06

@J90A I'm
Completely baffled with what's going on with me, I assume the clomid just hasn't worked for me this month and I need to be upped to 100mg

J90A · 01/12/2021 21:10

@Marvellouslymadmum yeah could be. You should go back to them and see what they say. Maybe be best to start a new cycle? Xx

Marvellouslymadmum · 01/12/2021 21:14

@J90A I don't think you can start again until you e had af though xx

J90A · 01/12/2021 21:25

@Marvellouslymadmum yeah you can, I had 2 months on clomid where I never ovulated so never had af so they gave me provera to bring on a bleed and start again. Xx

Marvellouslymadmum · 01/12/2021 22:29

@J90A yes I meant I can't just start again I'd have to wait for them to decide what to do and give me something first. Did they put you on a higher dose of clomid? Xx

J90A · 02/12/2021 06:30

Yeah you would need to go to them but if you've not ovulated by now I would think they would start you again. Yeah I'm on 100 now xx

Marvellouslymadmum · 02/12/2021 10:15

@J90A that's what I'm hoping they'll do for me, I've had a temp rise this morning so hoping I've finally ovulated!! 🤞🏻

J90A · 02/12/2021 10:22

@Marvellouslymadmum oh good luck!! 🤞 🤞🤞 xx

Marvellouslymadmum · 02/12/2021 10:36

@J90A thanks! I've had a few temp rises but if this isn't it I give up 😂 xx

J90A · 03/12/2021 08:12

Marvellouslymadmum · 03/12/2021 21:04

@J90A oh I'm so sorry! It's so difficult when others have their babies and you're still
Waiting! Are you on clomid again this cycle? Xx

J90A · 03/12/2021 21:31

@Marvellouslymadmum yeah 100mg they've gave me 3 months worth xx

Marvellouslymadmum · 04/12/2021 19:18
