Wow stephx!
That's certainly some encouraging news! I just started charting so I don't know if I ovulated or not but I'm going to be testing on Thursday (12 days after the last bd). I'm trying not to get my hopes up and I'm fighting the urge to test early....I'm on cd 67.

Hi Ladies,
Nice to see some new faces! And of course some BFP's!!!
Good Luck Drakey with getting the appointment - let's hope it's not a long wait, and well done with the weightloss!!
Gypsy - Good luck with this cycle hun! Nice to see you on here again.
Well as for me, on my 4th round of clomid, I am using concieve plus too, to see if that makes any difference! Im on cd 11 today (I think). I haven't temped for a while now, but hoping to get back into it, so that I can make sure I am ovulating and when! It looks like I normally ovulate around cd19/20 on the clomid, so will see what happens this cycle.
Wishing I get my BFP soon, but the journey seems to be a long one. So it looks like I will be having a hycosy scan next month, to make sure everything looks ok, if that is clear, then I will start the process of ICSI! But truly hoping there won't be a need for that!
Good luck and lots of
to everyone in this thread! It's a tough Journey!

Hey ladies,
since my cycle is edging closer and closer to cd 80 and I can't get in to see my new gyno til April 12th, I've got some questions for you all.
Have any of you tried to bring on your period naturally with herbs? I've read about it online, but just wanting some suggestions from you ladies with personal experience. I think I might even try the parsley pessary. Anyone tried it before?

hi amberdawn,i never tried anything to bring on af,i was going to try agnus castus but never did get round to it,
i dont know if this is coincidence or not but when i was having my first long cycle after coming of bcp i started taking evening primrose oil just on the off chance and af just came a couple of weeks later,im on clomid now and take epo until ovulation,i usually ovulate between days 15/20 but on one month when i wasnt taking the epo i didnt ovulate until day 29.
congrats stephx,really pleased for you...
good luck this cycle nnn....
ive got my fs appointment tomorrow i wonder what the outcome of that will be,ill let you all know how i get on.

Hi all,
Gypsy - how did the appointment go? Your chart is looking good, any ideas what the spotting was??? implantation??? Ovulation???
Drakey - Hope this cycle is a shorter one for you hun.
amberdawn - I did try angus castus, not sure if it did anything really, but you never know unless you try was my moto lol
stephx - Congrats on the bfp - That's amazing!
Well as for me still no ovulation yet am cd18 today, my last cycle I ovulated cd19/20, so guess Im gonna have to wait it out. My temps are a bit mad though, having lots of hot flushes!
xxxxx

nnn84 and gypsy, I ended up trying parsley tea and a pessary for one day and also started taking agnus castus. Then 2 days later got my af! 
I'm still taking the vitex agnus castus and really feel it working with my hormones. I feel like my uterus is actually working again! Sometimes it just feels like my uterus is in sleep mode 
just waiting for something to wake it up and get back to work. Maybe this vitex will help regulate my cycles in the long run.
Hopefully this cycle doesn't drag on and on forever again. I'd really like to see if I am ovulating with some OPKs. How long do you 80+ers wait to start using them since our cycles are long? I don't want to wait too long and miss my LH surge.

well my appointment went ok,got OH swim up test results back and they were good,ive to carry on with another 4 month of clomid and if i havent conceived by then the next step will be checking my tubes are clear and then after that itll be iui,which im not overly joyed about as the nearest they can do it is 150+ miles away.....
nnn i dont know what the spotting is all about,i dont even know when i ovulated this cycle,
you know when you cant be bothered with the temping and opk,thats how i feel im just fed up with it all now.
lets just see what happens.

amberdawn, i have just given up with the whole opk'in as it just gets me too stressed out of the fact that i am not getting a pos. ttc is hard enough with having to worry that ur body isnt working as it should lol ... im sure the ladies here will say the same too.
some people say that ur body will tell u when ur oving due to the CM and other factors.. but at the moment im just letting nature taking course and concentrating on my weight loss ...
... but hopefully soon we will all be cd80+ers graduates lol xxx

I understand drakey. This is just our first cycle TTC so I'll give the OPKs a shot and see how it goes. I'm pretty much doing everything with charting. I guess I'll just have to give it some time and see if I really want to keep track of this much stuff...lol.

Hi Gypsy!
I know the feeling! I have given up a lot on the temping the last few months - don't know why, as I know then what is happening and when!
My temp is all over the place though on this clomid, so don't trust my temp as much. As for OPK, they are starting to all look the same almost positive for me for the week leading up to O. Think I had my positive last night though, so gonna have to wait and see how that works out! My temp did shoot up this morning though, but I did have some broken sleep!
Wishing things were a lot simpler and that my
would appear soon
to all! xxxx

nnn84- your temps are rising real nicely! I don't know how clomid effects temps, but I'd say they're looking ovulationish!

got to agree with amberdawn,nnn your chart does look like your ovulating/ovulated,i only get the hot flushes on the days i take the clomid
goodluck with the weight loss drakey you seem to be doing really well,keep up the good work.
i dont know where im at with this cycle,i stopped taking epo on cd12 because i thought i ovulated,but since then ive changed my mind about that day for ovulating and dont know when it was,ill wait a week or so see what happens.
