Hi all, welcome NattyMommy and LKPone
LKPone we are cycle twins! I am also on CD7 after finishing first round of Provera and on Clomid 100mg CD 2-6. Are you going to start OPKs tomorrow? I was also not sure if the Clomid would mess up the results. I have heard the best time is between 2pm and 8pm. I am getting a scan on CD10 this Saturday to check my follicles. Im really hoping its doing its job
Nimbec, I didn't know Clomid could make you o early - good thing we started the bding early
Good luck for this round girls x
Hello!! And thanks for the welcome!
YAY! Cycle twins! I see you've o'd, which is great news!!
Sorry for the radio silence over the past week, here's a small update...
I've been tracking twice a day with opk's since Friday last week (CD9) and nothing until yesterday afternoon when I got my first smiley face!!!
SO excited! I got another one this morning, so I think we're in the home stretch
Today is CD 16, so it just shows how useful it is to track BBT and use opk's, because most of the time by CD16, people would be assuming they'd ovulated 2 days ago and risk missing it! So I'm also feeling cautiously optimistic... if for no other reason than it looks as if the Clomid might actually help me to ovulate possibly for the first time ever!
Can't wait to see if I get a temp spike over the next day or so. Will continue to do opk's until the smiley face goes away.
I had a terrible specialist appointment on Wednesday - stupid NHS!
He told me that there was nothing he could do for me any further and he is referring me to the Fertility Clinic - where there is an 18 week wait for an appointment!!
Crazy! Especially when I've already had one round of Clomid (albeit not prescribed by him!) and he's now just prepared to leave me with no course of treatment for nearly 5 months. Idiot!
I've looked into going private and it'll cost £180 for an initial consultation and a scan, so we might stretch to opting for that. At least that way, if this round doesn't work, I'll be prescribed another round straight away, not have to wait 5 months.
How is everybody on this lovely Friday (although if you're in the UK, it's pretty miserable weather-wise!)?
