Hey hun,

sorry to hear the witch got you - but glad the long cycle is over for you, so you can start a new one - there's nothing worse than hanging about waiting for the witch to turn up!!

Im waiting to see if I have ovulated or not - I buggered up when taking my last clomid tablet and was 14hours late taking it - just hopeing that won't make much of a difference.

The Evening Primrose oil hey?? Not really sure hun, but it does sound strange...

30 well happy birthday missy!! Hope you have a fab day and a great week and a half off! That's fab

Im off down the pub tonight for food to celebrate the new year! looking forward to it now, gonna have a few drinks too and make the most of it before the diet kicks in!

What have you got planned - it's a bummer that you are working the next day though

Well if I don't speak to you before hand, happy new year my lovely! Heres to a wonderful 2010 and plenty of for a load of 2010 for the lovely ladies in team cd80+ (including me please lol )

Have a great night!!! Speak soon

xxxx xxxx

Happy New Year Girls!!

Nothing new from me, it's almost 2 weeks since i had pains in my left side and my acupuncturist thinks that could've been a sign that i was ovulating, so if she's right i will be due for AF any day now.. not holding out much hope of getting a BFP so late in my cycle. So fingers crossed she'll arrive in the next few days..

On the sympton side of things i had a horrid taste in my mouth this morning and very itchy nipples lol!!.. but i seem to get symptoms often so not reading into them too much anymore!..

Happy new year ladies. I'm not far behind you drakey - 71 today. Currently waiting for CD1 so I can book my HSG - spoke to the lady who will do it today and shes lovely. The Dr said if I haven't come on within 2 weeks, they'll give me progesterone to get things kicked started.

 

[gypsy]

[nnn84]

Great seeing so many familiar ladies back on here!!

New year, new start and all of that to us all!!!!!

and just as a little extra plenty of

to us all!!!!!!!! lol

 

[Carrie29]

i think my long cycle is officially effecting my brain lol!.. did a test and got a very faint line after a minute still there after 3 mins and now faded, i put a pic in the gallery of it. There's been alot of FRER evaps around lately so it's probably that as i had a similar test on Saturday gone grrr!!

 

[nnn84]

Hi Carrie29 did you do another test on Saturday - Any Joy??

How about everyone else? How you all getting on?

I will be around 9dpo tomorrow. Not sure what is happening really - Just wish that my wait would be over already!

 

[Carrie29]

Hi girls, i did another test on Sat and big fat BFN!!!. so i now know that FRER's can def get pink evaps within the 3 - 10min mark

 

[Carrie29]

Also, i have a scan on Thursday to check for PCOS etc.. do you know if normal doc's can prescribe clomid or does it have to be fertility speacialists?

 

[nnn84]

Good Luck for Thursday hun!

Not all areas are the same, but I had to be transferref to a specialist to get my Clomid.

Well im 10dpo today had a temp dip this morn, and now this evening went to the loo and am spotting. It reminds me of the spotting I get when im 13/14dpo just before my period, but could my body be messing me around at 10dpo.

I was so hopeful for this cycle, but Im feeling my hope being dragged away from me again! I wish things could be simpler!

Will wait and see tomorrow if my temp goes back up and if this spotting stops, but at the minute feeling very doubtful

Looks like it will be round 3 for me then!

 

[Bubby]

Heya ladies - good luck for this cycle nnn!

I had the obligatory swabs and smear today and I have to say the trainee doing it made it very very uncomfortable for me! I had one before and it wasn't nearly as painful as today - all the things she needed were out of reach so she was pulling on the speculum to reach!

Ah well - at least they said they could see blood so at CD 79 it looks like I'll be starting a new cycle soon. That means I can book my HSG!

I also got my appointment to see the consultant on the NHS at its 23rd of Feb so not long at all. If all the tests are ok, he said he'll give me clomid then!

 

[Carrie29]

i hope she doesn't get you nnn... or that you have a better cycle next month! Good luck with your appointment bubby!..

With my acupuncture they offered me chinese herbs but they were very expensive so i didn't take them, anyway when i was out in the snow today i found another herbalist and they gave me a free consultation, took my pulses checked my tongue etc, like they do in acupuncture and she has given me a bag of herbs for each day that i have to boil and then pour into 2 cups one for the morning and 1 for the night, i go back next week to get another weeks supply.. it was much cheaper and works alongside acupuncture. The chinese doctor said he is sure that my period will be back within 3 week so taking them.. so i'll try them just this once to see. They also said once i have my period it should regulate very quickly so the next one after should be a normal 30 days or around that.. anyway got my scan tomorrow.. will let you all know how it goes..

 

[Carrie29]

by the way forgot to say they taste absolutely awlful and stink the whole flat out, but they do say that things that are good for you don't taste very nice i suppose...

 

[nnn84]

lol the things we do!!!

Good luck with your scan today - make sure you let us know how it went.

Well it wasn't my month on cd1 today so new start. Gonna make an effort to loose some weight this month too.

I have my next appointment with the gyno on the 28th so not long to go! Also got a hycosy scan booked in for the 3rd - not looking forward to that!!! If my other cycles are anything to go by I should be ovulating around that time, so hopeing that the scan doesn't affect anything???

 

[Carrie29]

well turns out that i do have pcos, the radiologist just told me that she said everything else was fine but i had polycystic ovaries i told my acupuncturist today and she has started a full on treatment now. Before i just used to have baout 8 needles, today it felt like about 30!!.. she tried to discourage me from using clomid just because of the strengh but i am going to see my doc next week and he will probably refer me to a gyne and then clomid, but i figure that by the time i actually get the clomid i would've been having acupuncture and taking the chinese herbs for some time, so will know by then if they are helping.. hopefully!!

Have a great weekend ladies, i am going to try and forget about it all for a wkend! x

 

[drakey]

hey ladies

think i need a quick update from every one to let me know what u have all been upto, and hw ur cycles have been, coz i have been avoiding this site for a while...

any way, another long cycle for me. must be at least cd90 now... but my next door neighbour knows my endocrinologist so she is trying to get me another appt which is good coz then i can hopefully get the ball rolling properly...

hope every one is ok xxx

 

[nnn84]

Hi Drakey!


Nice to hear from you hun!

Well I am now on my 3rd round of Clomid! The first 2 cycles, I believe I ovulated around cd20ish, but this has not yet been confirmed by the gyno for me.

I have bought conceive plus today, so gonna give that a go this cycle, it's supposed to help the sperm and egg fertalize through using fertile cm like ingredients. Will see how that works anyway!

I have my next appointment on the 28th January, so will see what our next steps are.

Take Care and keep us updated!

xxxxxxx
