    I am on my 3rd Clomid cycle now. Didnt get blood work done this time but last two cycles the 21day progesterone was 22.5 which is ok....
    I have appointment with consultant this friday. I didnt lose any weight in last 3 months so they probably gona give out to me...
    I am 17dpo now, my AF is late but I wont test untill friday morning.

    Fingers crossed for you :) I'm cramping pretty tense today, feeling bloated and gassy.. I won't even start about how sore my breasts are.. but I'm just 8dpo so don't know if I should be happy or if it's just period signs which ones I've never had.. it will be our first baby whenever we'll conceive. .

    I had two MC before, it will be our first baby too. I noticed that with each Comid my cycles get longer and longer.... first Clomid cycle was 25days, second was 29days and I am on day 31 now. I had spotting on cycle day 18 which could be my ovulation but I dont think so... I am preattu sure I O'd on cycle day 14-15 (I am tempin)


  • Registered Users Posts: 21 irenafin


    I use ovulation test strips. So I got positive on day 15-16 .. so it's how should be but it's too early to test (I'm very impatient person lol)

    I am starting my 5th cycle of clomid this month :-( it didnt work last month
    I will see the doc on day 10 for a scan and do exactly with last month. Will it be my month ? :-)
    I hope so otherwise i guess we will try to book IVF for next year

    If you got positive on day 15 you could of ovulated as late as cycle day 18... they show that ovulation will happen in next 12-48h. Fingers crossed for you.
    Oh stop I am very impatient too! Other cycles I would start testing as early as 7 dpo! :D

    cinloom fingers crossed!
    I wat thinkin about IVF but right now I cannot afford it... :(



    Did any of you had laparoscopy of lap and dye?

    I didn't. .

    laparoscopy OR lap&dye... sorry made a typo and wont let me edit the post.


  • Registered Users Posts: 54 ✭✭Pam_x_Pam


    I was suppose to get it done before Clomid but they said I am too fat =/ and told me to lose some weight. Lost 1 and a half stone since but in last 3 months didnt work so I am worried they wont do it...
    They dont normally do it unless there are indications... I had PID and my appendix out. PID can cause scar tissue to form and blockage of the tubes.

    I feel your pain. The midwife that weights me every time before the appointment is horrible! She makes me feel so bad... right I know im overweight but calling me lazy and telling me I wont get pregnant cos I am fat is a bit much...
    Right now I have to go to psychologist every week and eating disorder clinic because my bulimia came back cos of that nurse...
    It is bad enough to have to go through fertility treatment without being made bad about our bodies...
    They never helped me with loosing weight just told me to do it...

    Is abroad cheaper?

    I just received some quote from prague and it seems much cheaper so if we combine it with holidays it might be good.
    I am trying to get a quote from turkey too as i would mind to visit and relax in this country too

    Is it just for procedure or flights stay etc including?


  • Registered Users Posts: 54 ✭✭Pam_x_Pam


    I am thinkin of doing mine in Poland (where I am originally from) it is about 8000zł which is roughly 2000euro. And thats with flight, blood work and accommodation.

    I am really going to push them to do lap&dye or laparoscopy! This time I am going to speak up and get something moving....

    Please keep your fingers crossed for me on Friday (my appointment is at 9,30)

    Why wouldn't you go private? The service would be much better(I say it from experience)

    Simply because I would have to travel to Dublin and its quiet expensive...
