Cycle buddies we can be !!!:)

OK, so I am a bit scared to tempt fate, but I don't really believe in these things so who cares. I have had 2 consecutive higher temps and I'm really hoping that it is a triphasic shift thing going on. I don't have any symptoms though and I kind of have an af-type feeling, but I can't believe af would be coming with my temperatures high. Tomorrow is the day when usually my temperature drops the day before af is due. Also, I had an odd month, not entirely sure when I ovulated so it may just be that I am not as far post ovulation as I thought. BUT for the time being, temps are looking more hopeful than they have up until now. That's all I'll say.
Hope you are all well.
Bizy that sounds like a reasonable plan to me. Good luck with it. x

:dust: :dust: :dust: Hope it stays high hun!
 
Aww Samzi. Sorry to hear that. It's all a bit strange hey?
Thanks guys for your support, but I'm pretty sure af is coming. I can just feel it - we will see tomorrow. I predict a temp. drop to 36.55m then the :witch: arriving on Friday morning. That's what's happened the last 2 cycles. I pray my temps stay high though.
 
i am in the same boat as you lol78...my temp can just drop like that too...sometimes the day before Af and sometimes the morning of AF....

so i am still waiting and will see on friday where i am at:)...i usually have a 26 days cycle but last month with clomid it was 28 so saturday will be CD28 for me !

in the good note i have a rendezvous with my fertility specialist next wednesday as if Af show i will be on my 3 cycle of clomid and we are thinking of moving on IUI for May...
i am taking 50mg of clomid right now...if Af show on sunday i could possibly ask the doc if i could take 100mg of clomid for my 3 cycle on it and see if that make a diference?
 
Miel, I hope you get your :bfp: this cycle! If not, I am glad you can move on to IUI. That's definitely a big step!

kind of feel bloated and getting back lower pains so Af is probably around the corner !

IUI is a big step but also a scary one and a it's also expensive here :(...so frustrating when he should happen naturally and for us it's going to cost a fortune !
 
I'm in the US too and haven't looked into the cost of IUI yet, but I assume it's expensive. Hopefully you'll move up to 100mg of Clomid and you won't have to worry about it.
 
Well my temperature dropped today and I am feeling quite crampy so I guess it's just a matter of time.

Miel, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you too, really hoping we both get our :bfp: this time round. I don't know much about clomid. Do they check you while you are on it to see if you are ovulating (that's what it's for isn't it?)?

I enquired with the doctor last time I was there what we are entitled to. Apparently it's one "free" cycle of IVF at something like a 25% success rate then you are on your own and that's mega expensive. There is no way we can afford to go private, so I'm just really hoping it happens soon. Some in the UK don't qualify for anything, some qualify for multiple attempts. It's all based on where you live - a postcode lottery. It's not really fair because we all pay the same taxes. At least we get one "free" attempt - it's better than none. Also, they will only put back 1 embryo, so even less chance. Im really hoping it doesn't come to that but beginning to realise that it may not happen without some help.

What upsets me is that most people have a baby and never have to consider how much they "cost". I mean, how many people do you come across who say, "I'm saving to buy a baby". That's effectively what it is - if you don't have the money, you can't have the baby. It sucks.

I know. It's crazy when you start to think about all of the people in the world who are oblivious to the struggles of infertility. I admit I was one of them. I thought I'd get pregnant right away. My sister always did! I thought I'd have a baby by now and I definitely never considered meds. It is what it is though and I've come to terms with it...
Sorry your temp dropped hun. :hug: xx
 
Aww hun I kmow exactly how you feel. I am not entitled to any free ivf goes as OH already has kids from prev relationship. There is no way i can afford IVF and to have IUI at a top clinic works out at just under £1000 a go
 
OMG Miel! I just saw your post. I am so happy for you! Congrats. xx
 
thank you girl !!!

it feel so unreal !!!!

like i said no symptom at all until this morning a tiny bit nausea and my temp was still up so i decided to test as i was meeting the specialist next wednesday and want to know if i should prepare for clomid at higher dose and IUI in May but here it was BFP!!!!!
 
im on cd 5 >.< Is the gravity method true? the whole sperm and gravity and propping your legs up for 20 minutes? lol
 
:wohoo::wohoo:OMG MIEL!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations! I am so happy for you.

:wohoo::wohoo::happydance::happydance::happydance::wohoo::wohoo:

So glad it has happened for you. xx
 
Hi Yamkins. I always try and prop myself up a bit afterwards, no idea of it helps but i am sure it doesn't hurt lol xx

And Miel wooooooooo woooooo, so excited for you hun xxx
 
Lol just looked at your chart.... looking fab and different to most cycles xx fingers crossed xx
 
Thanks Krissi, I'm not sure what to think. I certainly don't feel pregnant (not that I know what that feels like!) and I tested yesterday and it was :bfn:.
Also, it was a strange cycle and I discarded a temperature around ovulation because I really reckon it was throwing things off. So potentially af is due tomorrow rather than today.

For the first time ever FF is telling me I "may test". I like you. "You may test". Well thank you for your permission FF. As it is with your blessing then I may do so!!

Anyway, I may go and get a FRER but I do feel a bit crampy and a bit like the :witch: is just round the corner so may wait a few days and save my money.
:hug: to all. xx
