The Clomid Thread - 6 BFP's!

Emmab - I'm sure you've Ov-ed hun as your chart has a typical biphasic pattern with clear temp shifts after OV. Progestrone is at it's peak 7 days after OV so if you think you had your second blood test around 8dpo then it will be completely normal to have dropped slightly, so it may well have been around the same value as your last cycle.

My consultant told me that progestrone levels don't matter in the slightest as long as you're ovulating. I thought that the higher the value the better chance you have but he said this is untrue, so I hope this helps reassure you hun. Nicky's proof that it can be 30-something and you can still get pregnant.

I noticed your temp has gone back up today on your chart.....I had this happen at 14dpo on my BFP cycle. I've been temping for a year so for me I know it's the norm for my temp to drop a couple of days before AF is due...so I'm hoping this is a really good sign for you. Wishing you lots of baby dust xx

At my mums now and it's so awkward. I know she wants to ask me about how I'm doing but I don't think I could hold myself together if she does. :cry: x

Thank you for you encouraging words.

I tested this morning bfn im afraid. Used a frer too, i wasnt fmu but close as i held it from 6am til 10.30am with no fluids. So i think its safe to say i'm out.

I mean what are the odds of a frer being wrong at 13 dpo?? x x x

Sorry to hear you got a BFN hun but it may still be too early.

I had an implantation dip at 6dpo at didn't test positive until 14dpo on a frer. It looks like you may have had an estrogen surge at 8dpo so don't lose hope hun, you're not out yet.

How long is your luteal phase normally? I have my fingers crossed for you xx

If you'd have asked me this question a month ago i'd have said a definate 13 day LP with a regular 31 day cycle. However last cycle i had an odd 17 day LP but still had a 31 day cycle! (I ov'ed early that cycle)

So af could be due tomorrow if i have a 13 LP. The 24th if i have my normal 31 day cycle or 26th if i have a 17 LP!!

I gonna sound dumb but what is the estrogen surge? Can you tell its my first month charting! lol x x
 
I hope everyone is doing well. You all seem to be abut half way through your cycles so have everything crossed for you. I've just been dipping in and out of here trying to keep up to date with you all. I finished my provera on Friday and have a bit of spotting today, hoping that I'll have a full flow of AF tomorrow so Thursday will be CD2 and time to up my clomid to 100mg. I'm already a grumpy cow with my broken wrist so I dread to think what I'll be like if side effects get me this month!!

Generally speaking your LP is fixed and usually only differs by a day from cycle to cycle. Mine is 13/14 days. If you had a 31 day cycle last time, it's more likely that you OV-ed slightly later than you thought I reckon.

An estrogen surge causes a dip in temperature. It can sometimes indicate implantation but an estrogen surge can also happen in a non pregnant cycle....it's quite usual for me to get one in mine so I don't read in to it too much for me.

I guess once you've charted a few cycles you'll get a better feel hun of what's normal for you. Because my temp always dips on 13-14dpo I know that if it stays up it could be a good sign.

Good luck hun, I have everything crossed for you and the other ladies on here xx
 
Tillie - is the festival this Saturday? so you will be about 2 - 3 days early - i think a FRER will def pick up a bFP by then, so if bfn i would just enjoy yourself!


:dust: everyone!!

Yes this Saturday, I reallllllly hope for a bfp, creamfields will my celebratory festival haha! I had my cd21 bloods yest, was an absolute show, crying almost fainted and was sick as soon as I got out the chair! You'd think I'd be used to needles by now but they just petrify me!!! Xxxxxx

Last cycle when i had the 17 LP i had ovulation confirmed with bloods which came back at 36ml and this cycle i've had it confirmed with 31ml results. So i think i'm ov'ing when i get all signs! I wonder if i'll have another 17LP?? If so then isnt that out of the normal luteal range?

Only just seen you bfp hana.....congratulations x x x
