ok ladies! So this is cd8 for me and I couldn't help but pee on an opk And I am kind of glad I did now because I got this.... Sorry its a little blurry!! But this is dark for cd8.... For me this is dark. What do you ladies think??

It is not dry yet, which is why you can still see the pink tint in the middle.. took picture at about 2 min mark..

About to start 2nd round of Clomud, was on 50 mg for 3 months, but nothing happened. About to take 100mg at the start of next cycle, scared that this won't work either.
Any advice on how to stay positive is truly appreciated!! Cx

I can't keep up with this thread!! But here goes:

prettynpink29 - Thank you for your positive comment about the late ovulation. It possibly could be but I'm not holding out any chances what will be will be! Your lh test strip looks a bit odd with lots of red shading on, did you immerse it for an eternity!!

Holi2459 - I am so sorry you are feeling down but please try and keep the PMA I'm sure you'll get some good news soon and maybe you are going to ovulate late. I have on both occasions of falling pregnant and I know lots of woman that do.

scerena - That's exactly what ALL my tests have looked like really up until today. Looking forward to seeing (oh my god getting excited about seeing someone else's pee sticks!!) if they progress darker or just instantly go pos!

 

[scerena]

Daopdesign- Thats really good for cd9 I think as last cycle I had lines all the way through but that seems like a good line to me so hoping I o this cycle- I better lol! I had to poas as the ovulation tests come today lol..
What cd are you on now?

[prettynpink29]

Ladyb-Welcome!!! I am tanking 100mg of clomid also

scerena- thank you!! Yours look better than mine does! I am gonna do another one later, probably a different brand and see what I get So excited for everyone!!!

Holi2459- You should be excited!! I hope you get wonderful news and start b'ding like a crazy woman!!!

daopdesign- No! I only dipped it for 3 seconds It just wasn't dry yet. It looks normal now.. Maybe I will post another pic of it dry.

 

[prettynpink29]

what brand opks are you girls using?? The one I posted was an IC wondfo brand... But mine are so thin and both of yours look thinker.. I think I am gonna order some more

 

[scerena]

hey!
I use 'one step ovulation test
It does look quite dark for this early on doesnt it just hope they get darker! Yours still has a line though...
I have to hold mine in the pee for at least 10 seconds...

Holi- where is your positive opk?- Im excited for you and want to see it lol
xx

 

[daopdesign]

I bought mine off ebay, they come in a white and pink packet (each one) think I paid £3 for 30 or something like that.

Yes I'd like to see your 'dry' photo lol

And Serena good luck hoping this will be your month, c'mon we need someone to have a BFP!!!

 

[scerena]

Thanks daopdesign
I hope its your month too, I dont think Ill get a bfp but I would be happy to at least ovulate lol!

oh and my tests are from amazon- £5.50 I think I pay for 30 but you can get less for cheaper- I havent tried any others

[daopdesign]

I don't think this will be my month and I mentioned earlier in a previous thread I have an apt with my FS specialist on the 28th so I'm kinda looking forward to that and getting some more Clomid. The last pills I had were from 2 years ago maybe they expired or something lol

Hey ladies. I think I figured out a way to share a calendar. Its on my Google account so if anyone wants to PM me their email address I'll add you to the permissions. It will only be shared between us. Hopefully it will help us to see where everyone is at since there are quite a few of us.

 

[hay1984]

Hi ladies,

I hope you don't mind if I join in?

I'm on my 2nd month of taking 50mg of clomid. I Ov'd last month confirmed by a scan and blood test.

I am pretty sure I ov'd CD17 this month (I'm now on CD20)

I have been reading all your posts and want to wish you all lots and lots of luck this month

 

[scerena]

daopdesign- they could have expired lol! At least you have an appointment and can get some more etc. Dont loose hope- you might surprise yourself and get our first bfp!

turbo- I will send you mine in a minute good thinking...

hay1984- welcome Its a good thing you ovulated last month and this month hope you done a lot of bd'ing!! good luck hun! When do you start to test using hpt's? or do you hold out?
And thanks for the luck

[SummerLily]

hey ladies ,

sorry havent messaged for a couple of days ! have had a very long chat with the hubby and although were still on our first round of clomid , with af being due satur/sunday time , im not feeling anything this month, other than the usual af cramping and sore boobs. we bd'd around all the right times and yet i just know that it hasnt worked.

so next month, were taking it all differently. lots more positive mental attitude , and .. were just going to relax and enjoy it !!

i dont know about anyone else but we kind of looked at this clomid like it was ' the one '. and planned al the days we was going to have sex and at all the right times so relaxing is it this cycle.

although im still going to be popping back and finding out about all your symptoms ladies ! just id like to not drive myself mad on the next cycle !! :hehe:

xx

 

[scerena]

Hey summerlily!
I completely understand that hun!
I even went in thinking clomid is a miracle drug but its not the case for everyone and we end up disappointed, but hopefully it will work and our time should come soon!
You are not out yet hun af hasnt showed and some people dont feel different until theyre a few weeks along...
so fx'd hun
xx

I feel pain on both sides so i'm hoping for some good news! I need to post my opk progression later and hopefully you ladies can help me out! This is my first month with internet cheapies so i don't know exactly what to expect! So far we have BD'd on cd 9, 11, 13!
