AMANDA and ZOEY, I am so happy for you!!! Amanda, cycle buddy you left me behind!! But I am glad that it is your turn! I guess you will be pregnant by August!! HOPING, I am still hoping that this was implantation bleeding!! Don’t give up. CHA-TARA, I can’t wait for you to be our next BFP. Only 3 more days!! KRISTIE, good luck with the o’ing this week. MRSRIS, good luck to you this month. What is your story and how long have you been ttc. This is my 17 month ttc and 3rd round of clomid. MANDY, good to hear from you. I am sending you a bucket load…no make that a truck load of baby dust your way!! JENNIFER, I hope that AF keeps far away from you this week. You will probably feel just like Amanda and then end up with a BFP!! MJ9305, welcome what is your story?? HEATHER, I really don’t understand about the going DOWN on the clomid and not up. Did you call your dr to confirm the dosage?? RUBI, it’s boring for me too on cd 7. Last day of clomid today. Nothing to tell. They finally came back with the blood test and my progesterone is 6.4 and of course my Bhcg is <2. The nurse told me, “You’re not pregnant”. I’m like, “well I didn’t know that.” Hehe. I’m not bitter. I have another u/s cd 12 and we will do the semen analysis that day too.

ahhhh ERIN - I'm still here cheering you on - bfp or not! It has taken 25 months to get to where I am - again - and I am completely nervous and a bit in a daze. I've lost two already and am just praying that this one decides to stick. Every twinge and pinch sends my heart into my throat -but I'm putting all my faith in God for this. Yes, I did get my bfp before August...LOL...it's funny b/c dh kept telling me 'we are going to get pregnant in August" and I said I wasn't going to rely on some psychics - I wanted to keep bding and trying every month. Your turn is coming and I'm going to be front and center cheering you on!!! ZOEY - how are you feeling today? When do you get your blood tests back? HOPING - I'm up bright and early and crossing fingers and eyes that you get your bfp. *** To EVERYONE - we will have our dreams come try of holding our babies...just hang in there, have faith and lets lean on each other for support. No one can possibly understand our struggles unless they have been in our shoes.

Morning everyone... Well, thanks for your ++ thoughts, but unfortunately the test results are a BFN. I just don't understand. I even temped this morning and it was higher than my coverline from last cycle. My temps are usually 96.8, at the most 97.1 during af, but today it was 97.6. No more af at all... in fact I'm just wearing a pad just in case, ya know, and my nipples are still sore.... I don't know what's going on. The only thing I can think of is maybe Sunday was implantation bleeding, but that would be 14 dpo, isn't tht too late? The other thing that may be effecting this is DH and I have started exercising.... running M, W and F and lifting weights T andTh... maybe that's it.... **Zoey** Did you actually get 2 days of af? Is that why you started clomid? Also, was it lighter? And had you tested right around then and gotten a - ? I figure I am going to take a page out of your book and just wait and see what my first OPK says next Wednesday.... **PBA**when do you go in for your check ups? Sending you sticky sticky sticky baby dust to make this one stick for you dear! **Erin** The beginning of the cycle is very boring... I am cd 4 (I guess?) , so I'm not too far behind you! I am not taking clomid this month--just taking the month off since stuff with DH and sc is up in the air anyway and I've been on clomid for a while... but we can still stick together! **Carolina** It seems like Erin isn't too far behind you at cd 7... how long are your normal cycles? I don't think it would hurt to BD every other day from now until cd 20--I mean, really, as my DH always says, it's not like the trying part is torture or anything :-). GL! **CJ** I guess I would wait until cd 35... that's only a few days from now. I hope you're our next BFP dear! Alright ladies I'm off!! Happy Wednesday!

Good morning ladies........ well, I know i said i wasn't going to test anymore but i did and of course got a bfn. It's cd28 and 15dpo. Since i've been on clomid my cycles have been 26 and 27 days. Off clomid they are between 26-30 days. I just have a feeling that i'm all screwed up this month because i got 3 u/s this cycle, and my 1st ovulation was the day before my scan (early), we saw the collapsed follie. Then my next one that was a few days later there was a new 20mm follie. A few days later we checked to make sure that one wasn't growing too big to become a cyst, and it wasn't so that's good, but i just feel like weird things are happening with my body. I almost want to take a break from the clomid. Pba........... is that what you did? Were you on clomid before? Oh, and i wanted to ask about the hsg. I think i will need to have that done if i don't get prego in the next month or 2. Was it very painful for you? I hear mixed stories, some say it's a breeze and others have horror stories. Hoping...... sorry about your bfn, it will happen for us, just stay strong! Erin...... hoping for some nice juicy follies on cd12!!!!!

PRAYN and HOPING - I'm so sorry for the bfn. It's going to happen - I feel it. PRAYN - I did the HSG first before doing any meds. It was not painful for me but I made myself sick w/ worry - that was the worst part. It was over in 2 minutes. I also had a great nurse who held my hand and talked me through it...she was fantastic! I was not on Clomid - ever. I was to start Clomid this month but b/c I got my + I obvioulsy didn't.

Hi girls..I am on cd 4 and I agree, the beginning is definitely boring! I can't wait until next week to start opk's! I get so excited when I see the smiley face on the clearblue!!!! Lets stay positive and I am crossing my fingers for all of you!!

HSG- I had the same experience as you did pba..I worked myself up for nothing! It was over before I knew it and doctor told me as he was looking at the dye that he could tell there was no blockage so I felt better about that part right away (the ONLY thing was that the doc was really really really cute) grrrr...

Morning Ladies, well I woke up and took another pregnancy test and it's still positive. So I really do feel like this is the one. I know I had many BFP and then a day or 2 later BFN, but I think this is the one to stick. I am so shocked and excited all at the same time. It's like I got af and thought I was starting a new cycle, but it turns out that I am not. DH is very excited but he wants me to refrain from teeling people. It's hard though, I wanna share my news with the world. Oh well. I feel a little queasy to my tummy but other wise not bad. I really have no symptoms except I am peeing alot and have been pretty tired lately. PBA- how you feeling, and how far along do you think you are?

gurinsa - thank goodness my doctor is old...I blush really easily! ZOEY - i'm so happy for you. I feel a bit queasy too in the tummy but it could be my mind playing tricks. I went in this morning and should have my betas back today. Dr wants me to start on baby aspirin and is prescibing progestrone suppositories...I've never taken them...any advice?

cd 32 still no af I don't have regular cycles so who knows.My boobs are still sore and have been sore since ovulation I just don't know if I'll test again it's too depressing I was sad all night. But I'm better today!!!Kristie...Do you think you ovulated yet?Erin...So happy to hear from you we missed you around here yeaturday. It took a long time to get your results back if it wasn't for af you would have still been waiting.Hoping...Sorry for the bfn I know how you feel I could have sworn that I was pg because of the sore nipples it's just so weird how our body act sometime but we have this cycle lots of babydust your way!!!prayn4baby....I wish you lots and lots of baby dust next cycle those bfn are so hard to take but some how we find a way to continue to hold our heads up and not give up!!!CarolinaCowgirl....how are you holding up cd 10 right when will you beginning to opk test?Amanda and Zoey how are you guys feeling when will you guys go to the dr. I'm so excited for you ladies!!!!gurinsa....how long ago did you get your HSG.vheni3...How are you doing today?Sorry to all the ladies I missed but you are all loved!!!

Amanda and Zoey, This one will stick just continue to trust in GOD all is well!!!

Erin - DH & I are both 28, been married for almost 3 yrs but have been together for 10. We have been TTC for over 2 yrs. I always had problems with my AF when I was a teen. The doc never really figured out what my problem was, so the quick fix was BCP. When I stopped taking them I never got my AF on my own. Would have to take Provera (which I have nicknamed B*tch pill). My gyn had me do a BBT chart and realized I was not Oing on my own. Started me on Clomid, did that for 4 cycles before my gyn sent me to a RE. I had all the tests done and everything came back normal. They did a SA and my DH count was low. They want us to do IVF but just too expensive, my ins doesn't cover but does cover IUI. We did our first IUI back in March with Clomid and Bravelle. Our second IUI was in April again with the Clomid and Bravelle. Since I have taken Clomid for 6 cycles I couldn't take it any more so we moved on to Bravelle for this cycle. I had my 3rd IUI on Sun. Now on 3 dpiui in the 2WW. I have an appt setup for the 21st for my BT. So I'm impatiently waiting for any signs. LOL! Are you just doing Clomid? Good luck with your next u/s.

Hoping.. They do say exercising affects af...mj9305 gl on your ttw lets us know how everything goes.I wish my husband insurance cover something but they don't cover fertility treatments it's expensive!!!

I sympathize with all the BFN's. Don't worry we'll have our day in the sun too :). I don't know if I've o'ed or not. I'm so frustrated with it. Yesterday my cm was watery and cervix was closed and I was having o pains. I've been having o pains for several days now. But this morning the cervix is high and unreachable , I have more cm but its still borderline watery and no o pains anymore. I guess I'm o'ing. I need to go to the store and get some more opks i guess, but it seems like a waste of money for something that doesn't seem very reliable. I normally can predict my own ovulation and af down to the day because I can feel my hormones change.

Hi Ladies, just got to the office. BBT dropped one point this morning. CD 23 for me, just awaiting AF pretty soon. Got my Clomid refilled yesterday, i got the generic though, SIPHENE 100mg. My doc will be leaving friday night and told me noone else could write the rx while he was gone. Zoey and Amanda how are you feeling today.? CJONES, ERIN, GURINSA, Prayin, HOPING, AGGIE and everyone else i've missed ... LOTS OF BABY DUST to you all today. I'm just waiting for friday so i can see my doc. i was wondering if any of you ladies had any experiences with FSH injections?

cd 10 here........b/f woke up late, so we didnt bd...........but i opk'd and it was neg....so oh well.......i do have a question........i ordered fertileaid for men and women........is that safe to take while on clomid? or is it either or?
