I want to put this story out for anyone who may find themselves in the same situation and are searching the interwebs. I went back on Clomid recently, and my doctor immediately put me on the 100 mg that I was at when I conceived my daughter. This was my first round of clomid in over a year.
I was not going out of my way to check my ovulation, but I was following with an app. Day 21 comes along and I went in to check my progesterone levels. The nurse called me and said that my levels were exceptionally low, 0.3, and there was basically not a chance in hell that I was pregnant. But if my some far reaching miracle I ended up pregnant to call her.
Well, two days ago I took TWO of those digital EPT tests, and sure enough it was positive!! Even when I got off the phone with the nurse I was suspicious that I had not ovulated yet. I had read that clomid can sometimes make people ovulate later, and I think that is what happened this time. I went back through my journal, and found the entry for that day where I wrote:
Of course this is all brand new, and anything can happen. I did go in today for my first round of lab work, I should have the results tomorrow of what my progesterone level is.
I hope this experience helps someone out there. We'll see how this goes! My fingers are crossed.

... my progesterone results on Day 21 came back very low, like 0.3. Honestly, I suspect the test was taken too soon. I don't think I was ready to ovulate until after Day 21. I don't know for sure, and I won't be able to take a pregnancy test until at least another week, if not two.
