I think youre right. I was really doing it to see how it was working with the clomid and Im still ovulating just fine. And since I dont seem to get a clear picture as to whether or not Im pregnant, then why bother.
Ill still use it to chart af and +opk but thats it after this cycle.

Aw yeah maybe it is worth considering a break from temping. When we were on a ttc break not temping was actually bliss 
I'm all for it in many respects but it can add stress. It seems that your OPKs are quite reliable so you could stop. There may be the odd occasion if you end up TTC without meds where you have a fake LH surge that you wouldn't realise without temping, but perhaps now whilst you're being monitored you could stop 
Lilesmom you have such a great outlook Chronic back pain must be awful but you seem to deal well as I say The day you meet your little one will be such a great reward.
Argh I didn't realise Irish law was so ungenerous! Apparently here they have changed it so if the mum earns more than the dad, he can take the 9 months maternity leave if she wants to go back to work. We won't be doing that but it's cool that it's now an option.

I think so too. My dr is pretty good at monitoring me and doing folliscans that I think I should be ok. I conceived twice with just opk's so might as well go back to that!
Laura, Im in the same boat. DH wont get much govnt paid time but I think his job will be flexible with him and let him use all his vaca and even borrow some if he wants and also work from home maybe. We'll see if I even get to that point! lol

Thanks ladies! You girls are such dolls!
Nerves have set in big time now. No symptoms at all really. I know Im only 4 weeks but I wish I had symptoms to reassure me that everything will be ok. All I have is somce aches and cramping here and there but it just feels like af is coming which freaks me out.

Betas are in the 30's (Already forgot the number she gave me) lol. She wants me to repeat every 48 hours until I get to 2000 whicn then she will want me to come in for an ultrasound to make sure the baby is in the uterus. I told her my concerns and she told me that it was perfectly normal to not feel anything right now and that I might start getting symptoms in the next week or so. That makes me feel a little better but you know I still wont feel considerably better until atleast after the 1st tri!
Aww hun It's so great you get to have blood tests done so regularly for peace of mind. Honestly it is SO normal to not have any symptoms yet, you're only 14dpo so think of how much blood there is running through your veins and what a teeny tiny percentage of HCG etc there is in there at the moment. Plenty to keep baby going but not enough to have an effect on you yet Every single one of my pregnancies I felt totally fine and normal til 6 weeks. But I know what you mean. This time round I don't think I started to get properly excited til 15 weeks, you just have to grit your teeth and steel yourself for the 1st tri unfortunately. But with the care you're getting hopefully regular appts will help make the time pass a little quicker. We're all behind you hun xxx

Lilesmom what is your due date? Are you starting to feel anything? What is your plan re the birth are you going into hospital?
Nothing new with me either, just always tired it seems! Had an hour's nap this afternoon and feel a lot better for it
