This is my first time threadkeeping so please bear with me. Any updates please post in bold... and then send me a private message if I miss it. I'm not often online on weekends but during the week I'm glued to the computer so this should be pretty easy.

I've got my fingers and toes crossed (everything except my legs!) that this will be the month for me... Let's hope lots of us fall pregnant in November! (I always liked the British way of saying that.)

1dpo here I think. Waiting for crosshairs.

Aw, bummer. Mine should be showing up any day now, except...(the following was also posted on the One Thread):

I'm now one-two days past my LP length for last month, and my temps are still elevated! I'm either 11 (FF) or 12 (me) DPO. I think it's 12 because my cm dried up and I think i felt an O pain the day before FF said I O'd. Anyway--

Long story short, at this time last month, even going by the FF O date, I would have started spotting yesterday and had my period today, with a big temp drop. Nothing yet. However, I started taking an extra 50 mg B6 to try to lengthen my LP, so perhaps that's it?

I took a test yesterday morning and there is the faintest of faint shadows that I'm assuming is an evap, but combined with my temps still being up makes me wonder...plus my breasts are sore/big. They always are before my period, but usually it gets better the day or two before AF starts.

I don't know I don't know I don't know. I told my husband my possible suspicions this morning, and he was just like, "You know you're setting yourself up to be extra disappointed when you do get your period." We only had sex once this month, either 2 or 3 days before O, so I know our chances aren't great. Still...it's getting harder and harder to talk myself down.

I'm sorry. I hope the baby dust got all over you for this next cycle!


Blanca,
Any news?

Well...I took two tests this morning, a Dollar Tree and an Answer, and it's official: BFP! I'm going to call the doctor for a blood test to confirm--not sure what the protocol is.

It's still sinking in--I'm afraid to get too excited because who knows. But I'm cautiously optimistic (okay, not so cautiously!).
Thank you all so, so much for your support these last few months and I sprinkle you with baby dust with every ounce of power that I have.


Greenmulberry--WELCOME! May your stay here be short and sweet!

Adorkable--I'm so sorry AF found you.
But it sounds like you're on your way to taking further steps and I hope you get that BFP before the year is out!

Thank you again, to all of you.

Hey all,

Nothing huge going on here. Gotta call and make an appt for more Clomid, since I started my cycle on Saturday. *sigh*

And, discussed it with DH, and we're going to keep doing Clomid & timed intercourse - he just isn't comfortable with the IUI procedure. (Specifically, the "You have X minutes to reach climax solo and oh be sure to have this little cup ready and hit the mark when you do so" bit.)

So, that brings our chances down. But hey, at least we won't be tempted to name the kid "Jack" (as DH was joking about).

I hope you won't need the IUI.


Blanca, wow!
 
#18 ·
Thank you, all! I can't believe it myself--I was really not expecting it this month. I sure hope I see all of you over in the pregnancy forums ASAP!

Blanca78 - Congratulations!!!!


Went and saw the Dr and she says everything looks good. She is interested though in checking my progesterine levels in three weeks. My temps start to decrease at 12dpo and she would rather they at least make it to 14dpo. And my loving DH gets a date with a cup

So this month already feels like a wash...not that we won't be trying though!

Thanks Laggie! I'm pretty psyched. I'm a little nervous that I'm TOO psyched though, and setting myself up for heartbreak if it doesn't stick. So I think I'll hold off a few days before officially moving to graduates--I'll give you the word!

Shabbers, i dont understand , exactly what wont the doctors do? continue your dose or increase your dose?
hoe much have you been taking and for how many cycles?
 
#26 ·
I've been taking 100mg for 3 cycles, and he didn't want to continue with a 4th, but wanted me to move on to clomid+injectables. DH and I have ruled that out, as he is terrified of the idea of even twins. I had to get rather vehement to get him to give me Clomid again this cycle.
