Day 19

Not sure what is going on with regards to my cycle, we are in baby making mode! I don't bother with temperature charting or ovulation tests because I have never found then reliable. We just try to 'get busy' every other day until day 30 when we chill out a bit.

I have finally sorted out the move, we have removal men booked and a date to move in our house. The only slight bummer is that it has not been re-wired yet and now will be done after we move in, which means little point in unpacking much, because furniture will have to be moved and floor boards pulled up. It is annoying! It is hard to settle into a place where you cant really unpack and I hate living out of boxes. But at least we can move in, we were worried we would have to put our stuff in storage and live in a B and B for a while, which would be no fun!!

I will find out in another 16 days if this cycle has worked or not.

Day 16

I have no idea what cycle day I am on until I blog!! Things are far too nuts here at the moment to remember things like cycle days. We are moving at the end of this month, but still have no moving in date to our new home. Main problems being we need to be out of here by the 2nd August, we also need to be at a family do on 5th August, my husband starts work on 7th August, and the removal men are almost totally booked up! So things are very stressful! We were hoping to get settled before my hubby starts work, it is looking promising, but until we have a moving in date I can't sleep!

Day 12

At the getting busy stage now! Also packing up our house to move, applying for a new job etc! Things are pretty stressful at the moment. I think I could forgive the clomid if it failed to work this cycle. I have been feeling a bit sick on and off the past few days, possibly metformin related, or hormones, or stress or heat, or all of these things!!

We eventually found a place to live, although the estate agents were pretty useless. When I phoned them all they said to do was to check their website and call them if I wanted to see anywhere. So what do they actually do these days! Also what do you do if you have traveled over 200 miles to a different town to stay for a few days to sort out a house and have no internet access. Even visiting the estate agents they were not helpful at all!! Gone are the days where they take your details and contact you if they find somewhere that suits your requirements. Is demand really that high that they can be so crap!! It seems like total laziness to me!

Anyway we now have a house just no moving in date, which is a bit annoying when you need to arrange removal company and possibly storage! Ahhhhhhhh!

Day 4 of cycle day 3 of clomid

Things seem to be falling into place!! My husband got a new job in Cambridge and we are planning to move there the end of this month - so we have lots to organise!! I have sent off for an application form to work at the hospital there which is one of the best in the UK, so that will be brilliant.

I am on day 3 of clomid, I don't really get vast side effects from it apart from the fact that I get over emotional, over really sad or really happy things that normally I would just say 'that is really sad' or 'that is brilliant', instead I feel my eyes well up like I am going to cry!! Only 3 more days of clomid and then we get to the 'getting busy' stage! I hope it does not get really hot again, yuck!! I know that trying to conceive whilst moving several hundred miles to a new house is not an ideal time, but when is?!!! Besides if I am worrying about moving it will take my mind off worrying about getting pregnant and miscarrying again or not getting pregnant.

Food phases!! I am really awful about food, and I wondered if it was anything to do with PCOS or just me being a bit of a nutter!!! I get phases where I eat something I really like day in and day out until I am sick of it then move onto the next new phase and the thought of eating the other one does not appeal to me at all! So PCOS or just insanity???

Day 1 - my own period, no drugs required!!!

This will have to be a quick post since it is late and hot and I am tired, probably smell and need a shower before bed!!

My period started today so the clomid starts again tomorrow. I am very pleased with myself for having two 'on my own periods' in a row. I was very pleased with one but really did not expect another, maybe the last year of fertility treatment has kicked my body into some kind of cycle! Ace!!!
