[Rachel789]

BFN here, I already knew it would be given my temp drop

I really shouldnt be upset as I knew with my bad lining odds were not with me this cycle. I hope this new dr. I see on Tuesday can fix my stupid body.

At least I have my cousin and his girlfriend in from out of town this weekend for a distraction. They stay until Tuesday and then I have my appt with the new RE then. He doesn't know about my TTC so I won't be able to talk about it to DH while they are around which is a GOOD thing I need this distraction and lots of drinks. We are going to see a Cirque Du Soleil show tonight so that should be a lot of fun!

I really wouldnt be as upset if I knew I could take something again next cycle. I really don't want to take an unmedicated cycle which is likely what the dr will want to do while he runs tests and figures out the best course of action based on those tests. But my natural cycles are so long and I really don't want a provera cycle. I do have an RX from my gyno sitting here for clomd 150mg (they wanted to up it for next cycle because they didn't think I responded quite good enough on 100mg) So I am wondering if the new dr. won't give me anything if I should just take the 150 mg on my own...what are your thoughts ladies?

I dont know what to suggest re the clomid tabs you have, it is 100% your decision. I think you will be fine to take it if you wish, but if your new RE really wants baseline data on you, maybe it would be better not to take it.

I'm glad you have a great weekend planned! Enjoy the show tonight and lots of drinks

When is your appt with the new doc? Maybe you could explain your story... but I'd suggest you try Femara instead of Clomid because of the lining issue. You could at least mention it to the doctor and see what happens...

 

[Rachel789]

My appt with the new dr is on Tuesday. I should get AF Sunday so I should be on CD 3 while I am there. I never had proper CD 3 bloodwork so I will ask them to take that while I am there. But yea I really don't want clomid because of my lining I would rather try femara just not sure if he would give it to me and I would rather do clomid than nothing because with nothing I will likely not even O and have to take provera at some point to end the cycle. I bought raspberry leaf tea from Whole foods, it is supposed to help thicken and tone the lining when you drink in pre o so regardless if I am on femara or clomid I will drink the tea this time. When I think about another clomid cycle though I am so put off because of the side effects. I had tons of hot flashes on 100 mg, so 150 mg will probably be even worse. Maybe its not worth it unless he agrees to give me femara.

girlies, sorry I disappeared! I was having a well earned break

rach, if I were you I would take the cycle off it means you can have a rest before you start femara. that's just my opinion though and mine is clouded by the fact that ovulatory cycles REALLY stress me out you could take the cycle to chill and not worry about OPKs and temping etc, just drink your raspberry leaf tea and relax before going full steam ahead with the following cycle! if you do decide to do clomid, I would just take 100mg as opposed to 150mg

caroline, I'm so glad your hubby decided to go for it, of course he would though so when do you start then?

louise and bex, any interesting pregnancy symptoms going on your end?

raven, nice temp rise! your chart looks different from other months, I hope that means a bfp is in store for you! what day are you testing?

katya, not long until your appointment if I remember correctly, when is it?

dee, I've got my fingers crossed for a bfp for you this cycle have you ovulated yet?

bethany, fingers crossed your temp shooting up is ovulation

lil, I absolutely can't wait for tomorrow!! I have really high hopes do you usually spot before AF?

sorry if I missed anyone out! , and to everyone

 

[mrsc81]

I wouldnt say ive got interesting pregnancy symptoms but ive hardly been able to get off the sofa today because i feel sooo dizzy, its like constantly being on a waltzer. Im not complaining though, i will take whatever is thrown at me

 

[raventtc]

welcome back!!!

yes my chart does look different this month, everyday i look at it and then at the others..haha, i hope looking different means something like a BFP!! i am going to wait until next week to test, ff says wed? so maybe i will wait til then unless that damn witch shows her ugly face...... -- stay away --!!

 

[MommyDream]

Ladies... I tested early because I couldn't take it anymore... I got a BFP!!! I can't believe it... Will have to test again tomorrow to make sure it's for real.

 

[mrsc81]

Congrats again Lil

Told you the bfp's would be rolling in now

 

[Diddums]

Yay congrats Lil

Post a piccie of your bfp tomorrow morning xxxxx

I was always under the assumption that people didn't have that long of a cycle tendency. I've always read 28 days, 28 days, 28 days! and felt like if mine were longer I wouldn't ever ovulate. But it, obviously, is possible to have say.. a 50 day cycle and still ovulate somewhere in those days, correct? Which would mean you don't have ovulation problems.. you just have longer cycles?

I'm not even 100% sure my cycles are lengthy. I just started my last period July 6th after getting off Implanon at the end of May (after 2yrs & 3mo.)/starting BC pills same day and then going off them June 12th-ish. So I've been keeping an eye out for my next one (so I can better chart my BBT/CM). I just have a really good feeling that IF my cycles are even somewhat "regular" - that they are, in fact, longer than normal standards because I can always remember feeling like I "skipped" a period when I was younger and before starting BC whatsoever.

I guess I'll be replying in here in the future when I find out Glad to know there's a thread for support about this!
