Abc- Yes I agree I think it may be chlomid/femara that makes the cycles wacky! Can you add me on FB messenger? It's easier for me to message that way! This is my 3rd round of femara since my most recent m/c and she wants to monitor me on it this go round. That's the only way she'll continue to prescribe it. The problem is, insurance doesn't cover the monitoring and I'm not sure if I have to pay out of pocket up front or if they'll bill me. It is SO hard to reach my Dr so I don't have answers yet. I went back and forth with her staff today so maybe I'll have some answers tomorrow..

Hey Flizma! Good to hear from you! Yeah these weird cycles are awful and confusing!!! What CD are you now? Will you remind me what you're swaying?

Noemi- I'm sorry AF came, but I know it is relieving to be out of limbo! This past cycle I was late and not 2 mins after I took my last FRER AF came.

Girlswayhg- FX it was an implantation dip!!!I'm sorry you're sick and I hope you get to feeling better!!

Hey Eighme, and star! FX for you both this cycle!! I think im close to the same days in my cycle as you both! I am CD 4 today.

Hey girlswaylondon! Sorry to see AF tricked you too! I was so sure this was going to be my BFP but the witch tricked me too! What CD are you now?? FX for you!


Mummy! How are you??? I've been wondering about you and praying for you! Hope to see your BFP any day now!!!

I hope I got everyone! FX so tight for us all!!

Mtolbert, that's great! I love having people so close! It's so cool to get to watch everyone else's cycles along with yours!

Hey ladies!! I just got home from my appt for my followup about my ultrasound last month. From that ultrasound and the findings of it, my doc feels pretty certain that I have PCOS... based on a bunch of different factors. He said that pregnitude will help, and that he's also prescribing me metformin to be taking in conjunction with Clomid. He wants me to start that immediately, but I'm kinda hesitant and want to wait until next cycle since I'm close to O (ovulation) day. Anyone have experience with metformin?

Hey Star! I take metformin and have been for nearly a year now. I started taking it immediately but my Dr prescribed it a month before she prescribed me femara so I had no worries about ovulation. I say do what you're comfortable with. For me, metformin has made such a difference in my cycles. I went from having a period maybe once every 3-4 months to now having 30-32 day cycles.

It seems like time is going by so slow! I wish we could skip straight to O!

What are your periods like star? Mine are regular luckily and I have pcos, never been on meds for it and concieved my son naturally.

The le pcos diet has made me periods shorter and lighter which is great!

Mtolbert I'm now officially ready! My sons back to school and bday (5 days after csection) is organised and my hospital bag is packed! 6 more sleeps woohoo!!!

Thank you for such a quick reply! I booked myself a bunch of appts all in one day so I'm trying to catch up while waiting for lunch at Applebees lol My concern is that I'm on CD8 after taking Clomid days 3-7, and I started Pregnitude on CD1... will metformin induce my period again or will that have no factor? I'm DTD E4D (72 hour version)... will it help me this cycle? Hmmm... [emoji848][emoji848] I really need to research it

Thanks ladies [emoji3] and just thought I'd mention there's no birthday party as such, it will just be the 5 of us and my mum as I was too worried about exposing a newborn to other kids at 5 days old. I have promised my ds1 a birthday party next year. I just wanted to make the most of it for him being so low key so he got to choose his cake theme and flavour and what he would like present wise [emoji4]

Pbn3 thats a brilliant lad you have. No fuss, no tantrums? A sibling is present enough though. My brother and I share a birthday week and it was always special. My mum went over the top for us.[emoji177]
