First off I just want to talk about my results from my day 21 progesterone blood test, After phoning the hospital constantly for two days I finally got my results from Sarah ( the nurse). My progesterone level was 98 which the nurse said is really good it means I have responded very well to the clomid and that I definitely ovulated around day 13 as from when I had the vaginal scan she could see that I had already ovulated. So she wants me to stick at 50mg for the next four months if I don't fall pregnant and she also said that i won't need to go for anymore scan's or blood test because the clomid is doing what it should be. I am feeling a little anxious about this because it will be all about guess work again, I don't know I just feel like I am on my own again.
Anyway I spoke to her about the constant pain I have been having and she said I will feel discomfort because my body has gone from maybe not really ovulating to producing two follicles. I just feel like the clomid has been so much tougher on my body this month and at times I have felt like giving up :(.
I am so thankful that I have such a supportive partner because this week has been hell not only physically but emotionally. One night I was in bed crying with the pain and Thomas said the nicest thing. He said thank you for putting your body through this to try and give us a baby. I told him he didn't have to thank me because it is what we both want.
So today is day 31 and still no sign of my period just feeling really confused because for the past week I have felt like I am going to come on and if I ovulated on day 13 surely my period should be here. I am not going to get my hopes up though because I read somewhere that clomid can lengthen your cycle. Just wish it would hurry up and put me out of my misery.
Thank you for reading this post on our journey, love Kirsty xx

Follicle Scan
I went to my apponitment yesterday at the hospital to have my vaginal follicle scan (cycle day 14) Thomas was with me which I was happy about :) After scanning me Sarah (the nurse) told us that it looked like I had already ovulated as she could see two follicle's with fluid left behind and she also said that the lining of my womb looked nice, thick and juicy so this means that if the egg was fertilised it would have a good chance of implanting. So Sarah said everything is looking good and the clomid is doing what it should be.
*Blood Test- Next week on day 21 I have to go for a blood test to make sure the ovulation was strong enough (read more here) and if my progesterone levels are not high enough then she said we can talk about upping my clomid to 100mg.
After yesterday I am feeling really hopeful that I could fall pregnant soon and I really cannot wait for that day to come.
