For the Reproductively Challenged xxxxx

[Dancingkaty1]

peekaboo i feel like im wishing my life away too...i hate the fact im like that as i have a 4 year old & i should be just enjoying her....she starts school next sept & i feel ashamed that i keep thinking about having another baby all the time....& wishing time away every mth...i know what u mean about march, i have thought this too....i thought to myself the other day i must be get preg by march...xx

Dancingkaty I am on cycle 16 right now and it sucks. If I don't get bfp this month then I won't be due to test till the 28th of dec as well. Although since we're waiting for ICSI it's unlikely I will get a BFP. I know what you mean about wishing life away, I just want my cycle to come so I can report it to the clinic and have a shot at getting treatment. My cycle is 33 days long and that sucks to cause I have to wait longer. As for the clomid I was o'ing on cd19 and it made me O on cd15 but since you normally O on cd16 you should O around then, maybe on the 15th or 14th. Start using opks from cd11 or 12 and on cause clomid can make you O earlier.

Hiya again. I have more blood tests tomorrow, and after that will finally find out whats going (if I'm ovulating or not, I don't think I am though as I used to see a real change in my cm and now its the same all the time) Anyway, my question is, the GP mentioned clomid and I when I mentioned this to a friend they just said oh well we'll all steer clear of you then, you'll be a hormonal wreck! Nice! Got me a little worried though, I will battle through anything for a BFP but just wanna know what to expect if GP says thats what I'm gonna be on. Any adcive would be fab, thanks in advance!!

 

[Kelly9]

Newbie I was a hormonal mess on clomid, so grumpy with DH. And I never get hormonal PMS but it was worth it I O'd earlier which was nice so give it a go plus I could feel exactly when I O'd it was kind of cool.

 

[Winks]

Just popped in to say hello.

Been moon gazing - tonights is gorgeous. Two days until the TWW. Yes I'm waiting to start the waiting...

Hope everyone is well.

 

[Kelly9]

The full moon was gorgeous!!!

 

[Winks]

Kelly how did your exams go?

Newbie hope your blood test results went well

Has anyone OV'd this month?

 

[peekaboo]

Im still waiting to OV I think. I am doing OV sticks and according to them I havent ovulated yet - still getting faint lines. It should be tomorrow or the day after I think as I'm on day 15 already and thought I would have OV'd by now.

Anyone else OVing or waiting to OV? x

 

[Mrs_N]

Yes me. I'm waiting, always waiting.
Ladies I am so bored!
Cd19 & nothing yet.

 

[Winks]

Mrs_N - I'm sorry you are bored... You have long cycles right? Are you taking the soy this month? Any good recipes?

 

[Kelly9]

I am waiting to O, another 8 days ish for me unless the clomid messed me up when I tool it the previous month... not sure if it will do that.

Exams went well, just waiting to hear back confirmation on that! and I am in the hospital tomorrow for the first time. Got to get up at 5am!!!! So my temp will be a bit wonky I guess since I normally take it at 615

 

[Mrs_N]

Good luck tomorrow Kelly!

Winks yes long cycles - I've ov'd twice since jan - once cd33 once cd45.
Taking soy for the first time this cycle, took 100mg capsules once daily for 5 days.

 

[cazd]

oh dear - so the full moon didn't do it for you?
I'm pretty sure I Od on the full moon 'cos the pains were pretty unbearable!

2ww for me.. and then on CD1 I'll see if they can fit me in for my HSG next month.

Kelly - sounds like the bloke at your clinic is a total ARSE!!
2 babies would be fantastic

 

[Kelly9]

Yes he is an arse but what can you do. I am still waiting to O will start opks on cd15 I think.

 

[Winks]

Think I OV'd yesterday - so TWW has begun for me. Peekaboo - you OV'd yet? Fingers crossed that you don't need the HSG Cazd.

Hope you enjoyed the first hospital day Kelly.

Here's to a great weekend. I am so wanting to have a wine right now... but going to be good (until the next AF). Chocolate instead

 

[cazd]

hoorah for the 2ww and chocolate!!!

I've just got through to the hospital and they refuse to give me our test results.
they said all the tests are like pieces of a jigsaw and they wouldn't want to give us half of the picture in-case we draw the wrong conclusions so we just have to sit and wait another month 'till the FS appointment.

I tried to tell them that I'm the research queen and I'll interpret my results for myself anyway - irrelevant of what the FS says

but they weren't having any of it GRRRRRRRR

 

[Winks]

Your kidding. They won't give you your own results. That has to be illegal. Can you ring for FS place to ask them for a copy - cause a month is a long time?

 

[Kelly9]

Yes the FS should be able to mail you a copy. My clinic won't give results over the phone either it's policy and because if the results are bad they don't have half an hour to spend on the phone explaining them. My FS told me on the phone though cause she is 1.5 hours away and she knew I was far so she made time to talk to me.

 

[cazd]

Unfortunately its the FS department who told me I had to wait - that's the good old NHS for you!

P.S - is anyone else frustrated by newbies - as lovely as they are and as supportive as they are... getting their straight away?
I feel like I build up a connection with someone and then the next thing I know they're off to 1st Tri leaving me behind

 

[Kelly9]

I know how you feel cazd! I am sick of the postings first month trying and we got our bfp, I just want t strangle them or leave a very angry post. It's heartbreaking. And I just found out a friend of mine back home, well his wife might be pregnant won't know till tuesday but I guess she is showing promising signs. I really hope they aren't. I couldn't handle it and I don't think they were even trying they wanted to wait a couple of years since they just got married this summer.
