Hi. I am at CD15 and hope for positive in the next few days because work travel would prevent attempts on CD19 20 and 21. I don't think we'll have time for an attempt Thursday morning but I plan to have an attempt as late as possible Wednesday night (cd18) if I haven't got a positive opk yet. Then we could try again Sunday night (cd22). I am running that by Atomic in my private forum.
I can probably keep tracking opk while away.
I just haven't been able to track temps at all, but maybe I will start this week and certainly could start next month.
Does anyone know if it matters if I take folate with food rather than on empty stomach?
Sending good wishes to all.

Good luck gafan, I think you can do either with the folate, but run it past someone more qualified than me!

Star, I think I see something in that bottom one!

So my chart is still looking good but I just went to the bathroom and have spotting. Cd27 and I typically have a 31 day cycle. But I’m on clomid this cycle. So if tomorrow is CD1 and I’m out for March, should I try Clomid one more time. It would be our last cycle ttc forever. I’m kinda getting misty eyed now.
Anyone have an earlier AF on clomid? Is this something I should be expecting?

Oh hannah, I hope its nothing and your chart tells the true story! I will be wishing for you

[emshe]

Ah ok. Well maybe have him release today then in that case. Then he'll have a fresh batch for your attempt which likely will be cd16 (that's my prediction [emoji6]) or possibly even tomorrow.... I misunderstood previously and thought you wanted to use fr as a sway tactic. Totally agree you're already doing enough and would have dh only release every 2-3 for sperm health.

Thanks so much Pbn, I so appreciate you putting up with my questions

We were doing it for sway purpose, but I am now just thinking lets get on with best chance for a BFP. Is it not too much to do it day before attempt if it turns out to be tomorrow? I guess it will be every second day if the next.
11am was very faint line on the opk dip. Nothing new. Boo!!!

Okay here is this evenings test. In real life I can see something but not sure If it's an indent or not. Gaaahh longest cycle ever!

Good luck, Gafan!! I'm praying this month is your month!!

If it's been hard to temp, look into tempdrop. It's a wearable BBT like the ava bracelet. I had a hard time waking up early every morning to take my BBT with a thermometer after being up all night with my youngest. I still don't sleep well (thank you Clomid). With tempdrop you wear it all night and then sync it to your phone in the morning and walla! The algorithm picks up your sleeping patterns and monitors your temp all night in order to figure up your bbt. It's so easy! If you'd like a referral link to get $10 off let me know. My friend is the one who told me about it and it has made my temping life easier by all means.

Anyways I'm praying you get your BFP this month!! Xoxo check fb, I'd love to keep in touch!

Clomid can bring ovulation forward so yes it can shorten your cycle. It usually lengthens your lp though so it should remain about the same. It may take a couple cycles before this happens though. Yes I would definately take the clomid for your last cycle! And I would do SMEP for sure!!!!! Just to let you know, clomid will still be in your system the cycle following next just in case you have a NTNP cycle [emoji6] Can you post a link to your chart?

Gafan a bd on cd18 and again cd22 is perfect and will surely give you one attempt! Can you post a pic of your latest opk? Being cd15 you still have heaps of time to get a pos opk (it can happen within such a short time [emoji4]) As for the folate, I've never heard of it being recommended to take with food so I dont know sorry, but I can't imagine it'd make much difference??
