TTC check in
Any updates ladies?
Re: TTC check in
I start Clomid next cycle too! Guess we get to be Clomid buddies, huh?
Well, I guess that I should start at the beginning and say that I start Clomid if I'm not pregnant. I tested today because I had was hoping that I would get a positive for an anniversary present. That didn't happen, but technically it would be early still if I didn't ovulate until Friday or Saturday or even later last week.

Three clomid buddies then (technically I will be starting in the beginning of December)!
I am just waiting around for either my period to decide to return or to go on Provera at the end of next month, and then the aforementioned Clomid at that point. Hoping second times the charm! I am getting tired of the long cycles. I am on day 82 and I feel like it will never end.
We went to Babys R' Us tonight to buy a present for a friend and it made me so anxious about getting pregnant.

I can't believe that I'm actually going to type this story out to you, but I am. Feel free to tell me to shut up if you'd like.
My friend had really long cycles too, as long as the one you're on and longer. She got pregnant her 2nd cycle with Clomid. And, she said she only got headaches while on Clomid.

I think I'm out. I've had horrible cramps since Saturday, (they have been bad enough that I want to puke). Last cycle she showed up on day 30 and today is day 32. I'm not out yet (no spotting), but my hopes aren't high at this point. There are no other "symptoms."
This cycle 2, and I didn't temp, so I have no idea if AF is technically late (which is why I'm not that excited about being 2 days behind last cycle). I'll test Friday if she isn't here yet.
I will temp next cycle, not knowing anything suucks.
DD: 6-24-11
EDD: 9-20-14
This is our first cycle TTC and I've been a charting maniac! I'm charting BBT, CM & CP and also using OPK's.
Just got my FIRST OPK+ todaaaaaay!
This whole TTC thing has made me realize how incredibly impatient I am, lol.
Good luck girls!
BFP on 2.2.11
Turning in my DE data collection forms tomorrow. Then wait for them to match us with someone.
Good luck ladies!
Thanks for sharing. If it was anyone else I might roll my eyes, but not for you dear. Maybe it will work this round.

The only symptom I had when I got my BFP was cramping and I had this feeling that I was pregnant and tested the day AF should have shown up. I say test now, it will put your mind at ease.

Okay today I am 'officially' joining the club.
I feel incredibly giddy, and dh seems to be even more. I wish I could join the siggy club too, but local lurkers are preventing that.
So ummm yeah that's all, carry on.
That's awesome! Congrats!
Thanks ladies, we were going to put it off another month (to look into supplemental coverage for maternity leave) but dh convinced me we will be fine.
Yay!!! So happy for you!
Sorry you can't add the humpy siggy.
this cracks me up!
And YAY congrats Pooks on joining the club. I should be sometime in January
You are?? Yay!!
Also ditto pocket pooks, that could replace 'little dilbert' which is what dh and I have been using for the last year.
Yup, if all goes well financially we should be
We talk about it pretty much daily and Nick has the fever REALLY bad. It seems like every time we BD there is a constant battle as to whether we should just go for it 
Right now we joke that maybe little Matthew got through. I mentioned to my friend that I liked the name and she told her DH who is good friends with Nick, who proceeds to tell Nick all the time that he wants little Matthew to come lol. So now it is a running joke that Matthew will be our first child.
We need to come up with something better to play off our last name since you know it is an animal and all
