Hi Ladies :)
I'm new to this so bear with me - So far this seems to be the best TTC/Clomid thread I've found.
DH and I are currently TTC, we have two healthy children, we used Met to concieve them but now after a few months back on Met and no O I've been precribed Clomid.
I usually have a 28 days cycle (when actually ovulating)- First day of AF was 27/8 (CD1) and I took Clomid from CD3-CD8.
On CD8 I had brown spotting then again on 10 and 11.
Cervix was mid-high, relatively soft and slightly open from CD11 onwards.
I've done OPK's as my Dr suggested but I'm really not sure as to what a 'positive' result is, I've never used them and I know the test results vary depending on brand. If it helps, I used First Response OPK's.
Anyway, theres a pic of OPK's here from CD10 TO CD12.
Do any of these look positive? I know that CD10 is definitely neg. so I am talking about the OPK's from CD11-12.
I am new to this and SOOOO confused

We are now on CD14, the OPK's have been neg. like the one from CD10 since yesterday. We BD'd CD 11,12 & 13.
My other question for all you ladies is - Is brown spotting normal with Clomid? And lack of CM?
TIA x

Hbarios! sorry for reading that your AF finally came, be strong for the next cycle! Good luck and enjoy your intercourses!
Ellekayejaye: I am optimistic for this cycle, as cramps started a little earlier. I am just waiting for the end of this week. Until then I know I ll have all the promising symptoms... as always! Good luck to you too!
Jennc2005: Congratulations for your BFP ! Keep posting!
Rkn_OH_Mum: I am not sure if I can see the second line... I think it is there. Maybe tomorrow will be clearer! Waiting for your results!
Kelly 89: just a welcome from me as I am not experienced on OPKs.
Lindsaytom: Good luck to you too!!!!!!

Welcome Lindsaytom and kellie89!
Kellie, I think your OPKs from CD11 look positive. So I bet you caught the egg! Clomid can make women really dry down there so a lack of mucous is normal. Have you tried Preseed? It's a lubricant that is safe for sperm. I recommend using it if you are dry. Other lubes can harm sperm.

I really hope so, but if not, try and try again I suppose :)
With DD I didn't have to use the Met/Clomid combo, just Met and no CP checking, I was able to just chart temp and CM and managed to concieve on the first cycle with Met.
This time, no such luck.
But, I can't find my basal thermo so I'm having to just check CP etc atm until the one I've ordered arrives, with any luck, by the time I've got it I won't need it lol.
I've heard of preseed a lot but I'm not really sure where to get it from or if it's available in Aus, or if I need a script for it.
I'll have to ask my GP.

Holy smokey's! I leave for a few days and come back to this!?? I LOVE it! Welcome Kellie and Lindsaytom! I hope you ladies love this forum as much as the rest of us:)
keillie- I can't help you with the manual opk's as i used digital opk's because I couldn't tell the diff between the lines lol.
Linsdaytom- Good luck on your scan and whatnot:)
babylove- I feel like I asked this but forgot the answer lol, where do you live in Canada? Not exact location lol, but what province?
Felurian- I don't know of any fertility books but I'm sure there are LOTS out there. I love to unload on here but for the most part I like to read and watch anything that has nothing to do with fertility lol. My way of detaching from reality I suppose lol.
EllekJ- I loooove England and plan to visit someday but for now I just dream lol. That's so great that most of your treatments and such are covered, it's the same here in Canada. Though, our taxes are a lot higher than the US so if you aren't one that needs medical care or drugs ya kinda get screwed over here. I guess every place has it's perks and downfalls.
Hbarrios- I read the most recent post on here but can't find where you state AF arriving. So, booooo if AF showed and Yeeeeeah, if you still have a BFP!
JennC- That's greeeeat news!! I really hope all these BFP's stick!
RKN mom- woot woot! What an awesome month for BFP's!
To the three of you BFP ladies: keep us posted!!
I feel like I'm missing some ladies. If I am, good luck to y'all!!
AFM- jeepers creepers!! Since I've doubled my doses and added infectibles I have been bloody miserable!!! I'm sweating all the time and have a constant lingering headache:( And when I say sweating, I mean SA-WET-TING!! I want to strip down naked and lay on an igloo one minute and then jump in a sauna the next! Boo on hormones lol. So, I sure hope this works this round
