clomid club

well we have 2 choices. A tiny, poky 3 bedroom semi-detached house in a nice area, or a large, spacious 4 bedroom detatched place in a crap town. what to do....

oh DM, I am in real estate and I dont know how it is in the UK but here...location means everything. If you hope to sell anytime within the next 5-10 years i would base my decision more on location...but keep looking until you find something that you will be comfy in.

 

[DragonMummy]

cheers. i thinks we are in that frame of mind anyway. its a matter of finding a happy medium i think.

 

[ttcbaby117]

yeah I know how frustrating that can be. g/l, I hope you find your comfy abode before #2 comes along!

If the neighborhood is improving, it might be worth going for the crappier one. Its hard to count on that kind of thing of course but nothing is for sure... in 5 years the crappy neighborhood could be taking off and the good neighborhood could be going downhill, right?

Are the schools the same for both areas?
Lots of people start with something that will be good for trading up in a few years.

 

[DragonMummy]

well this is one i want to look at. Its really big (perhaps not by USA standards though!) and the area's not bad at all. Its on a busy road which would be our compromise. There has to be one. Otherwise, all boxes ticked.

We are trading up! This is where we are now. We bought this 5 years ago and it's gone up a fair bit so we should have a £60k deposit on the next one.

Me likey!! Very nice!

Dm that looks really nice....big big kitchen...huge plus....I really like it.....You can deal with the busy street because it looks like you have a cozy backyard for harry to play.

 

[DragonMummy]

my thoughts exactly. theres so much space. i love the second staircase - quirky!

 

[ttcbaby117]

sounds amazing...I know it is stressful but also so exciting all at the same time.

 

[DragonMummy]

well we're at this huge crossroads at the moment. We need a new car, want to move, want a baby. I do think that one of those happening will just trigger everything else, like dominoes!

 

[ttcbaby117]

Oh yeah for sure..LOL...nothing and then BAM! All at the same time! Isnt that how it always works.

 

[DragonMummy]

over 2.5 years off the pill and nothing - then we bought this house and i was pregnant within a week!

Hi Girls

I'm new to the site, but not new to TTC-been at it for 10 yrs and about to start my 4th round of Clomid if AF comes tomorrow. Am currently on day 29 of a 30day cycle, 2 early response tests were neg, but no AF symptoms.

Anyway-hope I can join you and looking fwd to reading more of your posts

 

[mrphyemma]

Bit of a quandary and maybe TMI but I have got copious amounts of watery cm as in I could almost sail away on a boat. I had this in the lead up to O last cycle too so I guess it is the clomid. They say not to bother using preseed and similar if you have plenty of ewcm. This is not technically ewcm as there is no elasticity to it at all it is basically just very wet so shall I use the zestica or just go with the "flow"?

 

[mrphyemma]

Hi Foxy, hope AF doesn't show but if she does I hope that cycle 4 is a good one for you xx

 

[DragonMummy]

Hey foxy, welcome. We may be cycle buddies if AF ever gets me!!

Em I have just gone with the watery cm. Apparently thats fertile too. maybe a little squirt of the lube won't hurt?

 

[ttcbaby117]

well there ya go DM.....buy the house and you will be pg in no time...LOL

welcome foxy!!!

Em - I NEVER get ewcm and I used preseed this cycle...I only get that watery stuff...funny enough I am getting ewcm bits now...AFTER Oving....Oh my body and how it has a mind of its own.

 

[mrphyemma]

Mine has its own mind too ttc. I always seem to fall short of the "normal" bracket in every aspect
