This is crazy. I was googling to see if Clomid could make my luteal phase longer than what it is now. Second entry I looked at was a woman that normally has 14 day LP. On Clomid she said it went up to 16-18 days. Good news? She got pregnant on Clomid. And the baby's name was Olivia Faith. Olivia Faith....the name that I have been favoring. I am taking it as a good sign. I don't believe in coincidence or superstitions (though at times superstitions do get to me...).
So maybe we will be getting our BFP some time soon. I am hopeful. But if I have to wait three more days to see AF and sit in limbo I might go crazy.
I have cramps. Boobies are still a little sore...but not getting worse. Therefore I have to believe that AF will be here within the next couple of days.
On a good note, I went to Walmart today with the intent of buying a two pack of first response pregnancy tests. What did I find? A two pack with one free test. SO I got three tests for the price of two. AND I printed off the $2 coupon from their website. So instead of spending the normal $12-13 that three tests would cost, I spent less than $7. How awesome is that?
But...I did take one of those tests just to see one little pink line. So I am fairly confident I am done this cycle. If the cycle in June showed positive when the next day's blood work said 4.9 I am pretty confident that I am done. And ready to move on. Poor James though, I have to be on clomid during our vacation. Meaning hot flashes and headaches. And potential moodiness. Oh well...we will still have a good vacation. Baby or Bring on the Baby medicine.
Did I mention that the Baby Olivia Faith I saw was born in October...so I think that we will know we are pregnant by October (could be wishful thinking...but I am praying that it will be next cycle!!).
Also, the house episode that I am watching is the one where the woman is pregnant and 21 weeks. Things are going horrible with mom and baby. They choose to do a fetal exploratory surgery. They cut the mother's womb open and House gets to see the little baby's hand move on his finger. The most precious thing ever. I cannot wait to see my child on an ultrasound dance around on the screen. And later hold onto my precious baby after delivery. It will be amazing.

Often things strike my heart and want to come bursting forth. They come spilling out onto the page, or computer screen. With ink filling pages or my fingers flying across the keyboard, my mind going a million miles a minute, and my heart crying out to be heard. Here is where you’ll find those things, my little notes on life.
Little Bit About Me
- Jess
- First and foremost, I am a Christian woman: I love Jesus! In this blog you will find stories of trying to conceive with PCOS, MTHFR, Poor egg quality, a unicornuate uteterus, and too many babies in heaven. It is a good thing God is the ultimate healer! Here you will find praise! and you may also find venting (I'm not perfect...) and you will find other stories of my crazy life. All the while through this journey I am holding on to scripture & hoping to one day be a mother here on Earth (waiting on God & His perfect timing...why am I so impatient?) But in the meantime, here you will find me: Jessica, loving wife, hopeful heart of a mother, and faithful friend.
I guess I could see clomid making your LP longer. I think that would drive me a little crazy though... Well, I hope you're one of those gals who only seem to get the bfp after you're late a few days. ;)
ReplyDeleteI hope so too, but I am definitely not holding my breath. I feel like anything you know about your body goes out the window when you insert any form of fertility medication. Blah.
