Fatson, Bul & Hoping1, Thanks for your reply. By the way, I tested again on 6 March (26 days after my first day of menses) and it's BFP!
I went to the hospital on 7 March and doctor confirmed my pregnancy!
I took clomid since December 07 on Day 2-6 100mg. My doctor said taking it days 2-6 is more effective than days 5-9.

hoping1: i have to say go with what your doctor says. when you take clomid on cd5-9 you have a higher chance at fully matured and healthy eggs and a lower chance for miscarriage. as much as i wanted to change my days, i stuck with what my doctor said and finally the 3rd cycle produced one healthy follicle. patience girl!! =P want2bmom: congrats =)

Hey there ladies.. Was so good to be away, had a great weekend. Doc appointment went ok. I had two follicles on clomid 50 mg days 2-6. Doc was not to impressed.said my body didnt really react well. One was 22mm and other was 16mm. Had one egg. I ovulated this weekend, maybe saturday i think. Stomach cramped alot once as i ovulated. He wanted to do an IUI for me this saturday, but Dh said we should leave it for next month as we were going away for weekend. What is a IUI? Does it hurt? I will be taking clomid 100mg from day 2-6 when AF shows up which im sure it will since it loves us. Said he wanted more follicles. Put dh on something called staminogro, said it should help alot.

Want2bmom.. congrats. told you to hang in there. Great news.. Hoping.. Lol. I was ovulating this weekend.. Billie.. have you ovulated. Sarah good to see you taking it easy and not stressing. Just know you in our prayers. to everyone else i have forgotten. good luck and lots of baby dust...

Hi ladies, nothing to report I'm on CD23 and feel as if AF is coming real soon - been cramping lots!! Working from the website that I said about AF should appear tomorrow - if not I will test Wednesday. **Babydust to all** 

Name: Fatso | Date: Mar 10th, 2008 6:26 AM
Good luck sweet CJ. Hope you preggers. I CD 19 today, doubt im preggers this month. 

Name: cj1 | Date: Mar 10th, 2008 7:29 AM
Fatso you don't know yet!!! You might be the next one - I hope one of us is xx 

Name: Fatso | Date: Mar 10th, 2008 8:00 AM
Doubt i am CJ. Afraid of having a chemical preg as well. With a 4 % mophorlogy i dont stand much of a chance. its like 1 is to 25. Maybe the IUI will help. The doc was very confident bout that. And siad the morphorlogy will get better with the staminogro..  

Name: Fatso | Date: Mar 10th, 2008 8:49 AM
sorry its like 1 good sperm for every 25 bad sperm....

**Rowan** How many mg of clomid you took? and please tell me more about the IUI. i took 50mg. Next month will be taking 100mg of clomid and doing the IUI. 

Name: sammommy | Date: Mar 10th, 2008 10:58 AM
Hoping ~ I took my 100 mg of Clomid on days 3-7. I had 2 good size follicles on day 12 (both about 18 cm) and am now 30 weeks with twins. I've heard more positive results on days 3-7 than I have any other days......best of luck to you!! (I was also taking 2500 mg of Metformin for PCOS :)

Hi girls! Just popping in for a quick hello! So I decided to take one more month off of the meds. So no Clomid this month for me. I will however be taking it next month if this month doesn't work out. **Sarah - I am so glad to see that your spirits are up! So encouraging!! Hopefully AF doesn't take her sweet time to show up. **Hoping - You are getting close to testing aren't you?!?! Cheri predicted April for me too!! But she said it could be find out/conceive/or EDD so I'm not sure why she didn't clarify a little :-( **To all that are getting close to testing...BABY DUST! **To all that are getting ready to O...O DUST!!!** **As for me...on CD9 and should be O'ing next week. DH and I are trying to BD every other day this month. I have been getting these awful headaches lately? Probably the last 6 out of 7 days I've gotten one and it is just draining all my energy! I don't know what to do about it...any suggestions? 

Name: sarah35 | Date: Mar 10th, 2008 1:01 PM
Rowan-- thanks, that is hopeful. my doc said that i would be very fertile this next cycle. i tried to look up some information on WHY.... but really found nothing that proves women are more fertile after mc..... so if you have any info--that would be nice, otherwise your success story is enough:-) ***HOPING**** that is sooo cool about cheru22 prediction. that means next cycle for you:-) although i woudnt count this one out..... its nice to have something to look forward to. as i mentioned before, i went to a psychic that delt in months and numbers and told me i would meet DH in October-- and in fact i did!!! so i think there are some people who have that gift-- thats great:-) DJ**** i dont know what to say about the headaches. i had them bad last month when i was pregers..... alls i can wonder is if you are deficient in something...vitamin wise.??? that was one of the sucky things about clomid for me--headaches BUT i found they were when i wasnt hydrating enough. Maybe you need to start mixing up some drinks for yourself at work-LOL a little martini never hurt!!!! great for sex drive too!!!! So you and hoping are going to get pregnant in April HUH????? Maybe i will have to join you---- that is if AF decides to show up. ****CJ**** waiting for your BFP :-) FATSO**** it aint over till the fat lady sings.... i thought i was out for the month too-- and that was the cycle i got BFP. crossing my figers for all 2ww'ers. KIMMERS**** cant stalk you if you dont post temps!!! what are you thinking girls.... OH, i forgot....youve got to dig out of all that snow you missed this weekend!! haha, we were suppose to get like 10'' and got 1''!!! Thats fine with me:-) where do you put 2feet of snow anyways!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LMAO and to all else i forgot to say hi to--- HI. just waiting in nowhere land for AF...... hope shes not coming with a vengeance, not sure what to expect after missing it a couple weeks ago--- not sure where all that "stuff" went???????????? i guess it got reabsorbed-0- i dont know and dont care cause im thinking of next cycle. TC- talk later

sarah: i love how optimistic you are. you're going to be my role model through all of this. i just got a call back from the doctors and they said my progesterone level was 16 which was indicative of ovulation so she said "now we just wait!" and i'm sitting there thinking, 'wait til when?' so if i had my trigger shot on the 29th of Feb at around 11am that would mean i o'd the next evening around 11pm right? which would explain the PAIN i had lol. i'm too scared to test. the last pg test i took was 2 days ago and it was negative, but i dont' know if it was too early to test. 

Name: Rowan | Date: Mar 10th, 2008 7:36 PM
Jaime - so sorry to hear about allt he pain w/ your iui. I had a bad exp. this mth too they couldn't find my cervix opening it was up so high & back it took over 10 min. Yuck! 3 follies is great yo don't want a litter right. What size were they? Schar - you are too funny with all your diff. things! WAnt2 bemom - congrats!!!!!! cj1 you are getting close. fatso you def. should be doing an iui with that morph. It is were your hubby submits his sperm & it is washed (that is a term when they separate the good from the bad ones) Also only approx. 5% of the semen is sperm so they separate that also. I didn't use clomid I used femera & injections. plus an hcg trigger as I am in POF. Hoping glad you got your predictions thats so promising. Sarah I will try to find something else on the reason you are so fertile. Hoe you get af so you can have a big fertile mth! Teddy what day is it?Hope you get your bfp.

rowan: today is cd28 for me. and i think that makes it 10dpo? something like that? i'm too scared to test tho. 2 days ago it was negative so i'm scared =( 

Name: jamie.s | Date: Mar 10th, 2008 8:35 PM
Hey there! Well, all the ovary pain is gone so I think I have successfully ovulated! Yay! No w we wait! *Fatso* with that morphology you should definitely think about iui. It places the sperm directly into the uterus so if they aren't good swimmers all the work is done for them!! On my first iui I didn't use the trigger shot but decided to this month. *Rowan* I has 2 follicles at 23 cm and 1 at 16 cm. Yes, I am very glad there weren't any more than that! As much as we want a baby the thought of more than 2 terrifies us!! Did you have an iui this month? What cd are you on? CONGRATULATIONS want2bemom! That is awesome!! 

Name: schar | Date: Mar 10th, 2008 9:04 PM
I try I try. Anyway it's cd 18 still -opk, here we go again I should O around 13-14th probably too late to concieve it will cd 21-22 this is really getting me down got another month before I can be in the 2ww hopefully I get af this month it should be a 33 day cycle but in Feb I started af on cd 38 because of the chemical pregnancy just praying I O sooner and get me a sticky lil baby. Jamie sounds like good news to me good luck I'm jealous. have a good night u guys  

Name: Fatso | Date: Mar 11th, 2008 2:48 AM
Hi Ladies.. CD 20 today. Hate the wait till next AF. **Sarah*. Thanks, hope your Af shows up fast so you can start trying again. **Rowan** since i had two follicles, one was 22 cm and other was 16cm he said it would be better for me to take clomid 100mg next month and we will do the IUI. I must go back to him on CD16 of my next cycle. Think he wants more follicles. **Teddy** just test .. let us know the results. Good luck to you. **Jamie.s** Congrats on ovulating. thats great news. I think i ovulated on saturday, can just feel the ovulation pain when we on clomid. Good luck to you. What CD are you on? our follicles were very similar. what mg of clomid were you on. mines was 50mg. Next cycle will be 100mg. Is the side effects worse...eish dreading the clomid..**schar** goodluck to you too. to all thise i have forgotten lotsa goodluck to you and lots of ovulation and babydust to you all...... 

Name: Teddyfinch | Date: Mar 11th, 2008 3:32 AM

And.........................................-............................................-.- 

Name: Teddyfinch | Date: Mar 11th, 2008 3:59 AM
ok the test is marinating. but i'm positive it's negative because i don't see anything yet and the control line is sooo dark. but it's only been like 2 minutes. so i figure i'll give it the 7 or 8 it says to. 

Name: Fatso | Date: Mar 11th, 2008 4:04 AM
Give few min and check.. Pleae God let us at least have a positive......... 

Name: Teddyfinch | Date: Mar 11th, 2008 4:08 AM
i was right. it was negative. but it ain't over until af shows her ugly head so i'll keep hoping ^^ 

Name: Teddyfinch | Date: Mar 11th, 2008 4:08 AM
and i'll try again in a couple of days
 

Name: Fatso | Date: Mar 11th, 2008 4:13 AM
Sorry sweetie. When is AF due.. Just hang in there.. 

Name: Teddyfinch | Date: Mar 11th, 2008 4:39 AM
well, since last month was february, i suppose it's due on the 13th. although i should call my doc and ask when i should start testing. given our current job situation, i'm not letting it bum me too much. i'm more worried about that lol. anyway, off to bed for me! night all ^^ 

Name: Rowan | Date: Mar 11th, 2008 7:04 AM
Teddy - sorry for your results hold tight not over yet girl. Jaime -yes I did do an iui this mth (2nd one) and I'm currently 7dpiui. Fatso - I had more s/e on the 50 than the 100 ?? 

Name: Fatso | Date: Mar 11th, 2008 8:19 AM
Thanks Rowan. if AF is coming i hope it does really fast so i can start the next treatment.. Eish i hate the wait...
