Thankyou everyone! Im ok now, im calmer and in a more accepting mood today.
I dont know how i got through work yesterday.
Im cd35 today and feeling a bit crampy. Did a hpt for old times sake and got a bfn.
The way i see it the longer it takes us to concieve the more chances of us having a christmas baby next year plus it gives us chance to save for my maternity leave and to buy baby items too.

Have a good weekend everyone!

Ooohhh i hope its your lucky cycle! Maybe you tested too early.

It's the opposite here!
Cos sa, hsg, testing etc do cost the government so much they'd rather give u a script for clomid first n hope it fixes things b4 they have to invest in testing

Mum face, my Gyn wanted DH to get a SA as soon as we started Clomid. We knew I had issues, but that didn't mean he didn't too and the doctor wanted to rule that out.

And yes, I'm rarely in the mood these days. It seems like the longer we ttc, the less I feel like bding. And I know this is silly, but I'm scared to bd during my TWW just in case. Plus my progesterone supplements make things kind of messy (sorry, tmi). I remember reading somewhere that PCOS can lower libido, though.

Just catching up on posts from the last few days.

To the ladies trying Agnus Castus...
I would recommend the tincture version rather than the tablets. I did the tablets from Holland and Barratt for 2-3 months with nothing (infact one of my longest cycles). So gave up! After my failed clomid rounds i decided to try the tincture version and so far have had two of my shortest cycles (5wks last time and ovulated yday so this one will be about 6wks)
May be a coincidence but worth a go! H&B hve stopped doing the tincture so i get mine online now. Doesnt taste good but u get used to it. I only take it up to Ovulation.x

Oh yeah and my first cycle on it was when i had my chemical pregnancy

Good luck with the concieve plus Mumface we used that on 2nd round of clomid and got bfp.

I had a low libido when we were ttc...I felt like we only BD'd for the sake of ttc...vicious circle really!

Back to work Monday after a week off dreading it already!!

my first dr. didn't do any sort of testing, besides bloodwork, and just wrote me a clomid script. my current dr. said that is absolutely ridiculous. bc if I have blocked tubes or hubs semen isn't great, then whats the point? clomid won't help either issue. so i wasted almost a year with my first dr. just treading water and wasting my money and having to deal with horrible clomid side effects for nothing.. i was livid when my current dr. said this i wanted to rip my first dr.s head off!!!! and now that we have done everything proper and i've been monitored and adjusted.. we finally got our BFP!

9dpo and a this morning - I know its early, but some strange things have been happening and even DH is convinced I'm pg!

-It all started when I got cramps and unusually thick (sorry tmi) 5-6dpo, then the cm stopped and cramps continued, but only a little.
- my glands have been up and down like a yoyo and I've been congested most days since
-on fri 7dpo I lost my appetite and started feeling gassy - I kept bringing up sick, presumably because of the gas, but wasn't ill. I ate only dry foods (bread, pasta for tea) because I had no interest even in take away
-i woke in the middle of the night on Friday starving hungry and have been ravenous ever since, despite feeling quite nauseous and the gas is now really uncomfortable because it keeps making me feel so sick.
-bbs swollen, not sore, nips sore, sensitive and different colour to usual.

I am going crazy. I could put so much down to other things, but I'm truly stumped by the nausea and gassy tummy because I'm not someone who feels sticky often.

9dpo is early to test, so I know I will need to keep checking. I feel genuinely hopeful, but I'm terrified that these symptoms (which can't surely all be in my head?) are a sign of a bug or virus and not a bean.

My cycles are so infrequent and are usually forced, so I don't usually do getting hopeful. The last time I did I was on Clomid and I was an emotional wreck, in a lot of pain, and got a chemical. The positive only came up the once and we thought it a duff test til I started looking at forums like this.

Sorry for such a long and whiney post on a Sunday morning. DH is sleeping and he has his arms around me, I feel like I need to chill the f@#k out, but its impossible. Have 5 tests coming from eBay this week, so will just keep testing unless AF rears her ugly head


Hope all your weekends have been a little less stressful x

Congrats for your bfp!!!!
H&H 9months!
