O-BABY: keeping everything crossable crossed for you! Having been pregnant a few times before, let me tell you, pregnancy symptoms and P.M.S. symptoms are almost identical. I know that right before AF is due, I obsess over everything symptom and try to evaluate whether its a pg symptom or a PMS one. With my son's pg, I had absolutely no symptoms whatsoever, except for one night of throwing up after I drank something that didn't agree. The next day I tested and received my BFP. As for the pgs I lost, one I had major sickness and symptoms right before AF was due, and the other just slight dizziness. Each woman has different symptoms, and each woman's symptoms differ fro pg to pg. It is so hard to not to obsess, especially like those of us who are on the long-hall, and I am so sorry to hear that it is affecting your sleep. I too have been there, and my heart sincerely hopes you get your BFP!
Chocolatelady and Angel- I'll be 32 in October! You both have time. Please don't let it bring you down. It's better you are addressing these obstacles now rather than when you are 38 or 40.
On cd5, day 2 of clomid, 150 mg, and am hanging in there. Hopefully this third round is a charm. I am very lucky that when I do ovulate, I sometimes conceive. My biggest fears are more miscarriages :(

jack1019 - thanks :) I know I'm not that old it just sometimes feels like I'm going to be an old mother. I'm so sorry about the miscarriages :( I've never had one, but I've never been pregnant. I will admit I am scared, I know the risk is higher with pcos and I dont know what I'll do if I try for this long and then have a miscarriage.Can only hope not. Good luck with the clomid, my doc is keeping me on 50mg... so on CD18 and still waiting for ovulation...
o-baby - not sure what the time is there, heard about your blood test?

Radiance - Good luck this month! I'm really hoping that AF doesn't show! Only 3 more days until you can take a test, so close yet I know it feels sssooooo far away! I myself have to wait until April 28th! We all know how tortorus that wait can be!
O-BABY - any news on your blood test results yet? I'm actually getting nervous for you! I really hope it's a positive result and that you ovulated! I also am starting to feel some minor cramping in my lower abdomen. It comes and goes and kind of feels similar to af cramps right before it comes but I'm not due for that for just over another week. I know that I also felt it a bit last month though too and last month I didn't even ovulate, so I'm thinking it might just be a side effect of all the meds we're on? I don't know, so hard to tell! I wish there were tell-tale signs of everything going on and we knew exactly what they meant!
Well I'm going to be MIA for the next few days starting tomorrow. My husband and are are driving to Seattle tomorrow morning, spending the night then heading to San Francisco on Friday morning for four days. I hope I come home to some good news on here! Also hope I personally come home to good news that I'll be able to share with you guys!!

Radiance- Man! I hope that AF doesn't show for you!! I am praying that you get your BFP! Fingers crossed for you! And nope, no results yet. I called up there a little while ago, hoping to get a call back anytime now.
Hopefullysoon- I am so excited that you get a vacation! Enjoy every relaxing minute of it girl! =) And I hope that those little cramps are implantation cramping for you!! I hope that you have a fabulous time, and I hope that you come home to the best news EVER!

Ok, I finally pulled myself together after crying for about 40 minutes! I received the call from the nurse on my blood test results, and no ovulation! I usually don't cry or get that upset about it, but for some reason this time was just awful and heartbreaking!! I just can't believe that I didn't ovulate! So the doc is upping my dosage to 100mg. I am on cd24 so now, just waiting til AF shows! Hopefully AF will show on her own this time! Sorry to be debby downer, I am just real upset right now. =( Still having back pain and lower cramps! I am hoping that AF shows on time this time around!!
I hope that all of you are having a wonderful day and that you all have fantastic news coming your way! baby dust to ALL! =)

O-BABY I'm sory sorry :( I know the feeling as build up a resistance to clomid and only ovulate every other month, only ovulating again once my dosage has been increased. I'm thinking positive thoughts for you on your 100mg!
Also you most likely won't get af on your own. Everytime I haven't ovulated I have to take provera to get af. If you do get it on your own it'll probably take a very long time. The reason being is after you ovulate your progesterone increases, when your body finds out your not pregnant your progesterone drops and the drop in the hormone level is what signifies that af needs to start. I reccomend that you talk to your doctor about them putting you on provera again so you don't have to wait a super long time to get af, because I know how much that wait sucks! I'm so sorry you had to go through this :(

hopefullysoon- Thank you! I know that you know exactly what I am going through, sucks so bad! And you are right I will probably have to go back on Provera to get AF started. I have had to take Provera to get every AF, but one so far. So I figure that I will this time also. AF is supposed to show her face around the 28th 29th. So I think I might take your advice and call my doc and see if I can get it started.
Thank you so much for your support! I am really hoping that this is your month girl!! Really!! Can't wait to hear your news when you get back, I hope you get your bfp!

Hopefullysoon - enjoy that holiday :) Always wanted to see San Fran, it sounds like its going to be great. Some quality time. And yes bring on the good news :)
O-baby - I'm so SO sorry :( I often hear on clomid that people ovulate one month then not the next, so your next month I'm sure you will. But I know how disappointing it is. Are you sure you can't still ovulate? I only had my blood test on cd30 as I only ovulated on CD25, they wanted to do it on CD21 but it would've also been negative, keep doing your temps.
Well I still have negative opks, on CD19 today, really thought that taking the clomid from cd2 would make me ovulate earlier but no sign of it... maybe I'm also going to have an off month.

Obaby so sorry to hear you didn't o :( it's devestating!
Angel, hopefully yours is just late again, well I'm on clomid day 3 and just the usual symptoms, cranky, headache, thirsty, hot sweats at night. I'm really trying not to get my hopes up this month but with the clomid, metfor

Babymoon – I hope this is your month too! The side effects of clomid can get your down but they do seem to stop quite quickly after your last pill, I just find through the month I have a HUGE bloated tummy, I’m sure its from the Clomid. I’ve heard good things about metformin and ovulating, I just wish my doc had given it to me instead of waiting… but seeing him again in a month so guess I can wait. Also hope my ovulation is just late, I took clomid 4 days earlier than last time, but I have also read that clomid may help ovulation but sometimes your body still stays the same (as in ovulating the same time), I was just hoping for a shorter cycle.
Just 1 hour to go and I’m on a mini holiday :) Not going anywhere but I get to relax… and who knows maybe ovulation comes while I’m off. Also helps that I work with my partner so we are both off for 11 days as from 1pm today :) Yay!

Hey everyone! I know I'm on vacation so I shouldn't be on the computer but I came online to check my progesterone results from my blood test that I took this morning before we left on our trip. . . and it confirms I definitely ovulated! Also the other two times I've ovulated my progesterone has only been at 32 and 38. This time it was at 52!! I know if you're pregnant that it continues to increase for the first bit so that your body continues to build a thicker lining in your uterus for the baby! So I'm REALLY hoping that this means more good news is on the way!! Anyways I'm going to go back to my vacation, hope every one is doing well! ******Baby dust******

Hopefullysoon - that is wonderful! My results were over 50 too last month but weren't successful I think cause I ovulated so late, the doc called it a gr8 ovulation tho so urs must've bn too :-) wow I hope this is ur month! I got my +opk today, took 2 just to make sure. Got none left but assume ill ovulate tomm? Did BD this afternoon and will try tomm morn as we hav ppl over tomm eve, hope that will b enough. Pity I won't hav a progesterone test but I'm positive ill ovulate, oddly enough tomm is 4 days earlier than last month, cd21 and I took clomid 4 days earlier this month. Had ewcm when I got the +opk bit then it went away again... sorry 4 rambling on, never had a +opk as I always test too early so I'm not sure what to expect. Reason I tested was cramps in left ovary, dunno if I could've ovulated the same time as getting the +opk...
