Tillie I think you may be right with not taking your third dose but then I'm on my 7th round so I can't really talk! Not been able to have my 21 day bloods the last two cycles cos I started a new job so it's been total guess work! We've just BD'd so that's CD 8,9,11,13,15,18 and 20. Is it enough?! Can I stop yet?! It's felt like hard work this cycle.

I'm going to wait and see what the nurse suggests tomorrow and see if my hycosy is booked and then see, I don't see the point in me taking it though. Aww bd'ing becomes a bit of a chore around ov doesn't it, I thinkyou could stop if you really feel the need. Good luck!!
Do any of you know how I could help in anyway thicken my lining? Xxx

Me too Bella! Was talking to hubby about it last night and he said we should give it another go on CD 22 and 24! Sigh! Oh well he can have an A for effort but I think CD24 is not necessary!!
Didn't sleep well last night...think it's all going through my mind about today's appointment though for the most part I'm looking forward to it. Also hopefully looking forward to a return to spontaneous sex. Bella you've done we'll with your BDing how much more are you going to do this cycle?

Just been writing down all my cycle details from the last 13 months and it's certainly a pickle! Cycles ranging from 29 to 130 days, successful and unsuccessful ovulation, CD 21 blood tests sometimes on day 21,23 or not at all!!

I did wonder if we should have BDed one last time last night but I just couldn't keep my eyes open. 
I reckon it'd be good to keep BDing regularly just in case. Are you still using ov tests? I haven't been doing mine but will do one later out of curiosity lol.
How exciting Bella, I'd love to extend our house! We have quite a big garage we don't really use for anything and I'd love to convert it to another room and then build on top of it and extend our bathroom... Ooooh you've got me day dreaming lol. x

Well girls i just had a mini meltdown! poor hubby lol
i think its an accumulation of things....yesterday my best friend gave birth to a little girl (im happy for her, chuffed, but wish it wa me espec as they werent ttc when they fell pg).....then this morning i had results of my mri scan on my back, i already had 1 prolapsed disc...turns out i have another one now (so when i do eventully fall pg i think its going to be a problem)....plus i think as iv ovulated last day or so plus the clomid my hormones are all over the place....well huby had brought a lava lamp from over his mums and i just snapped and all the crap hes been bringing bit by bit came out of my mout and had a proper meltdown (bear in mind i have cleaning ocd and like everything neat and tidy...i.e. not his golf clubs in my living room! or car seats on my spare bed).....so after a rant i ended up bursting into tears and him consoling me lol i must seem like a right headcase
i also dont know wot day to go for my blood test as im unsure of which day i ovd due to getting 2 days of pos opks, here is a link to both my temp charts so if any ladies could shed some light id be very grateful
tcoyf reckons yesterday but i think it may b based on opks not temp

Bella,
Can I join you in LTTC blues?!
The IVF consultation was certainly enlightening. It turns out hubby has a very low sperm count (1.2 million versus normal of 15-20 million) also with very low motility (8% is lowest they seem to record but it was marked as 'invalid' as it was lower than this). Apparently it cannot be down to diet, glandular fever that he had or anything else we could possibly think of. We were stunned really given we already have a son and I fell pregnant in 2 months!
My tests were all fine and the scan was fine though because I took the last round of Clomid I had to have another blood test today for AMH levels. That will cost £60 on top of the rest :/ I also have to get my GP to send the exact numbers for my thyroid and full blood count results to the clinic. What was rather interesting is that the consultant's eyes went rather wide when I told him I was on 150mg of Clomid and he wanted to know who prescribed that. He was also surprised that at no point did hubby have a semen analysis before they started me on Clomid. So something worth pushing for girls before you waste your Clomid.
So the upshot of it all is that we will have to have ICSI rather than IVF, and that's at least £1000 more to start with. Gulp! Hubby is really quite gutted, says he feels 'less of a man' and is worried I will leave him. WTF?! And we girls thought we were screwed up sometimes!
Hubby has to give another sample on Wednesday and the consultant will write to us and hopefully after that arrange the consultation with the nurse regarding drugs etc. So the wheels have started rolling at least and if nothing else we have a clearer picture of where we are. I didn't feel a sense of relief that it wasn't just me, just disappointed that all our efforts the last 16 months have pretty much been futile. I have to say I hugged my boy earlier so tight and nearly cried. I'm just so grateful to have him as I know this journey would be 1000 times harder without him there to keep our minds focused.
So needless to say i won't be bothering with a test this cycle, I can't be bothered to BD anymore and I will just wait for science to take it's course!! Guess I best take a peek into the ICSI threads then...

Hey girls, just checking in 
My internet is being a bitch so I'm on my phone and I can't read everything because its tiny writing, I'm so sorry ill catch up when broadband is connected!!
I'm glad to read I'm not the only one who hasn't BD the last couple of nights. We did Sunday x2, Monday and Wed. Defo have a dodgy batch of OPK's as todays was darker than yesterday :s but defo think OV was Monday as it was darker than control line, and none have been like that. I also ad bad tummy ache, which I don't have anymore, just had a couple of twinges.
Going for my CD21 bloods on Tuesday, I'm expecting it to say I OV'd as when I was last on clomid it did, but still expecting a BFN/ witch turning up early as that's what always happens....anyone else ever feel like that. All I have done differently is have sex on specific days with preseed and I took 50mg clomid and 1 day of 100mg clomid.
Xxxx

Biiiiiig to everyone!!
Chaz, I know what you mean, although I had a feeling that this round would defo be it, now I'm in the 2ww I'm terrified that it won't be.
I'm ill at the mo, laid up on the sofa in pyjamas and a fleecy blanket, got a really bad ear infection, can barely talk, one side of my face feels frozen.
4DPO today, yesterday I had sharp poking pains low down on my left side when I coughed or sneezed, praying it was a little bean (or two!) getting snuggled in.... I really hope so!! Although not sure if 3dpo is too early for implantation?? Not had any spotting... Even now I can feel a little dull ache in the same spot... Ooooh.
How's everyone else?

Oh Jacq.
I'm so sorry your hubby's results weren't what you were expecting. But like you say, you've fallen pregnant before so there's still a chance it can happen for you hun so don't be disheartened.
I know ICSI isn't the way you thought things would go but the way I like to look at it (going through treatment that is) that it's one step closer to a bfp and falling pregnant.
None of us thought we'd have to go through clinics and science-y stuff to get preggers but we're all here to support each other. I hope you continue to post here though.
