Well, another cycle has gone by and surprise surprise! I'm pregnant!
I was almost positive that this cycle wouldn't work either, so Shane and I went to a lapband seminar last week and made appointments for evaluation this week.
That was just not the plan though and yesterday when I took a pregnancy test, there it was, a very faint second line. I sent Shane an email with the picture, I think he was doubtful. I told my sister. I couldn't stop thinking about it all day yesterday at work. I thought about stopping to get a digital test on the way home, but figured I still had cheaper ones that would probably just be negative. I got home, took those... positive again. Shane wanted that definite yes or no (and so did I)! So I ran out and got digital tests and took it immediately. Yes+ !!!!!!! :)
Took 3 tests again this morning, all 3 stronger darker lines and another Yes+ :)
I feel like I'm dreaming. Can't believe it really happened! I'm so excited and nervous. I just called in to work that I would be late. I'm going to call my OBGyn as soon as they open at 8:30 so I can get the blood test and get everything confirmed.
Wow... So, the Fertilityfriend.com website I'm on says that my due date would be on or around June 15, 2010 and that my baby is 3 weeks old. Well, thats not true, because I can tell you my baby is exactly 2 weeks old today :) Good thing charting everything :)

Well first cycle of Clomid is over. It did help me to ovulate, but didn't help me get pregnant.
Confirmed as of today, back to CD1 I go.
Calling Dr Pepperell to get my next prescription of Clomid, not sure how much higher dose she will give. Either 150 or 200.
Guess we'll see.
*sigh*

Pretty sure I'm out for the month.
A little relieved, a little disappointed.

I guess I'll be getting a higher dose of Clomid and trying again in September.
Tomorrow is our 1 year anniversary.

Got the call from OBGyn nurse today.
My Progesterone level is "a little low"

She said once I tested, if it was positive, I might need Progesterone supplements.
If its negative, she will give another higher dose prescription for Clomid.

So, I put a note out in the forums wondering if there was anything OTC I could do to help the low levels.

Basically, instead of everyone suggesting something, they basically all told me I went on the wrong day and my doctor is wrong.
Not terribly helpful at this point. No progesterone suggestions at all either.

My temps continue to climb. I hope thats a good sign. DH is really annoying today. Ugh.

Stomach has been kind of queezy lately, not really nauseous. Not reading into it too much. Temperature is still high and got higher this morning even. Only DPO 5. Its a good start at least

Blood has been drawn and I should hear back about the results either tomorrow or Monday.

Now, all I do is wait :)
The chart on fertilityfriend.com suggested the first day I should start testing is August 31 which just happens to be Shane & I's first wedding anniversary.
That would be an awesome gift for both of us!
I won't get my hopes too high though, this is just the first cycle on clomid after all.

Now all I have to do is eat healthy and be positive and optimistic for 2 long weeks :)

I'm so excited! I truly ovulated with Clomid, so at least I know it works for me :)
I am DPO 3 now and going in for my lab appointment this afternoon for them to check Progesterone. Crossing my fingers something down there sticks :)

Feeling a little more confident since I finally got +OPK's from both Target and Internet strip.
Hurry up and get home Shane!
Crossing my fingers temp goes up again tomorrow morning so Fertilityfriend.com will finally show the crosshairs on my chart that I've ovulated.

Appointment is made to go in to see my OBGyn on Thursday August 20 (my CD21) so they can check my Progesterone.

Temperature went up today and it *still* has not said that I have ovulated yet.
Starting to think its not going to happen.
