@ninies - FX still hun :heart:

@Jay-Bee - I hope the side effects aren't too terrible for you on the 100mg, is there nothing you can take to counteract them?

@Liza - Are you still on 100mg? When do you move onto the next step?

@P4M - What a torturous wait!! I hope that BFP shows soon! Your HCG levels should double daily so hopefully it shows soon.

@MrsSmith - We also often have conversations about what we would do should we not be able to conceive. I would love it if one of my sisters could either donate an egg or be a surrogate but I don't think that would be a real option!! The next would definitely be adoption. If you do go that route then please make sure you dont get scammed! I remember Carte Blanche doing a story on it... terrifying.

AFM, CD 17, absolutely no idea when I ovulated, had EWCM and pains at CD10... seems really early for me. Didnt have access to OPK's in our town so couldn't check. Other than those signs at CD10, have had nothing since then, the pains were also on the right instead of the usual left? Just going with the flow and not thinking about it..

Me: 24
DH:25

@ P4M1, you must be going crazy :silly: I think if you have not gotten your BFP in a few days and AF still has not arrived I would go for a blood test. I think at Pathcare they charge R100 or so and it takes a few minutes. Might be cheaper than the HPT's.

Good luck and I so hope this is your month :heart:

@ Liza

Thank you for the tip as I am not looking forward to the side effects if the 100mg. I am really holding thumbs for you that this month you will get your BFP! In my heart I thought that Fertomid is a miracle pill and that I will get my BFP, oh well.

That is fantastic that your friend can help, you must be super excited! Good luck.

@Liza - I missed you here, so glad to see you!
I hope AF stays away for you and that you get your BFP and dont have to try anymore. It sucks when you try and try and try and nothing happens!
Did your DH do his SA yet?

Hi Ladies!

How is everyone doing? Been missing you guys so much these last two weeks.
Things are just so busy and with school holidays my whole routine is out! :silly:

@TheMrs Congratulations!!! :heart:

@P4M I'm sure you will get that BFP this month. I have read that it can take up to two weeks after a missed AF to get a positive.

@Ninies good to know that you had a good cycle after fertomid. This would be my first cycle without Fertomid as well.

@ Jay-bee so sorry you did not ovulate. It has happened to me as well. Getting the + OPK but no ovulation. :huh: Strongs for the 100mg Fertomid. Just a tip, try to take it as late at night as possible. The effects can be dreadfull and it keeps you awake at night.

From my side. I'm CD26 today. No idea how many DPO. Never did my progesterone test last week as i did not really feel the need to track this cycle. Today i have dull cramps as if AF is on her way. Not sure when she is suppose to visit as i usually had a 28 day cycle but since i started with the 100mg Fertomid it moved to 32 days. So if it would be another 32days AF is only due next week Saturday.

Were seeing our gynie friend this week. Hubby asked him what he wants to see us about and he said we need to come to the practice offices he wants to help us get the BFP. :lol: It helps when you have good friends!

@P4M1 - I think you have a shy BFP, that is all. I do think you are pregnant too. Especially because you are late and have regular cycles.
I cant remember - but you did not take any meds or so?
