13dpo today, chart still looking fab..officially the longest LP Ive ever had without a bfp so might go buy yet another test tonight..from a different shop so the supermarket ladies dont think im a weirdo lol..small town supermarkets ay?

Lurking...

and just popping in to say good luck to Storm.

think im outty.  feeling stupid... soooo over this!!! worked out tonight its been nearly 2 years, 7 rounds of clomid, 1 miscarriage and now we are back to the hundredth "day 1" , I hate "day 1"..with a vengeance right now. so grumpy at the world.. this sucks so much! 

Hi- I'm a 'sometimes' forum-er. Just checking in- I'm
on my third round of Clomiphene - wanting to fit another cycle in before Hysteroscopy/Laproscopy in the hope I won't have to actually have the op if I get pregnant before! Have been TTC
for 2 years. Found out through HSG I have blocked right tube. Last 2 rounds of Clom have showed ovulation on right side :/ I need to ovulate on left side (dumb nature!)

My BIG question today is:
Has anyone else had chest pains on Clomiphene? Feels like a tightness on my sternum. Nothing heavy, but enough for me to notice and wonder what is causing it??

Hi Trina-b ;-) It's soooo good to hear your feedback about Guy from repromed (I think we're about the only two using them on here, maybe because they only accepted private funding up until last month)! I've been working with him since Feb and just love the small, personal nature of the clinic. Yay!!!

Good news, Storm. I hope it does the trick for you!

it's exciting to see so many of your starting treatments. I'd love to see some nice BFPs in here asap!!!! Been a bit of a dry spell lately. Surely we're due for some soon :-)

Yep I had one at the start of june. I waited 5 months for my date after waiting 5 months to see the surgeon all publicly. If I didn't take the date they offered (on 4 weeks notice, so not too bad) I would have had to wait another 2-3months. Fertility isn't really their priority unfortunately.

You aren't supposed to do any running/heavy lifting for 6 weeks post surgery (that's what my GP told me any, surgeon said nothing to me). It took me about 10 days to feel "normal"-ish again, I definitely needed at least a week off work. I had a polyp removed, and endo removed. The gas pain in the worst, and recovering from the general. Though another lady here recovered really quickly from hers compared to me. It's so individual. I would probably skip the Half so you can definitely focus on recovery, unless you're super fit and 6 weeks off won't bother you!

I hope it all works out for you either way :)

Thanks ladies! I'm glad he's let me do the unmonitored, we can't do another private Ivf for a while so
at least I'll feel like we are doing something with our "natural"
trying - and Deb!!!! You're lurking? TTC again? so
nice to "see" you!

Soda big hugs Hun I'm sorry you feel like you're out. In hate day 1 too and am
coming up to three years of them! And don't feel
stupid - we've had that hope and no one thinks you're stupid for believing this could be it! Does this at least mean a longer LP now for you?

Beaker Yaye for unmonitored clomid buddies! My AF seems to be taking her sweet Mary time! Always comes when you don't it to, and never when you do
Boo for your headaches too! What time of the day do you take them! I did clomid last year and my first round I took it during the day and was always followed by a headache then started them at night next time and got no side effects.
Trying trying I never got that chest pain either but might be worth mentioning to your doc or nurse? I've also had a hysterscopy and don't think my recovery was that long but possibly different with lap aswell?

Nik good luck for EC tomorrow!! Hope you're feeling ok about it all

Trying I had a lap this year before Easter. They did not find anything so just the straight forward surgery, I was running 10km before it but after it running felt funny for a while - like I could feel the scaring inside. I was off work a few days but yes took a few weeks to get back into previous fitness level
I thought about a half marathon in oct but the one I was looking at is on the day we get back from holidays so figured it was a sign not to bother, if this ivf round does not work I might look at a different run

Soda I hate cd1 with a passion. We always have to have hope and think what if, one of these times it is actually going to happen!

I recommend clomid at night too, can't comment on chest pains - best to check with nurses
Right I'm off to sleep to grow some follies!
Hugs ladies
