Clomid Failure & Vlog #2

Shall we get the bad news out of the way first?

Clomid round 5 failed :-(

It wasn't unexpected, I don't feel like anything happened this cycle, but still disappointing.

Trying very hard to keep the positivity going for this final round, so please keep your fingers crossed and send baby dust my way.

In other news, I have completed my second vlog post :-) I had a good response from my last post and gained a few subscribers, so that is fab!

I will add some standard blog posts for those that aren't interested in the video blog posts. I am aiming to have a mixture of the both going forward.

I start the tablets for my final Clomid round tonight..... roll on the hot flushes!

As usual, baby dust to all xxx

A Brave New World........ Vlogging!

Today I have been very, very brave and recorded my very first vlog!

For those unfamiliar with the jargon, a vlog is a video blog. Essentially a video diary where I talk to my camera instead of typing about my feelings - think big brother diary room.... but without the nice big chair!

I have posted a link to my first vlog below, you will have to forgive me for it being a little rough around the ages, it is surprising how hard it is to appear natural in front of a camera. This was the result following many attempts!

Hopefully it will appear smoother and more confident once I am more experienced at it - although I think it will always be a little strange to be talking to myself!

There is a wide community of infertility vloggers on youtube, I suscribe to many of them so this first vlog was just to introduce myself.  Therefore the content won't be new to most of you, but please subscribe to my channel because I will post more detailed vlogs over the next few months.

There isn't much to update on the TTC front at the moment. Despite the expensive OPK tests, I did not get a positive result so have no idea if I ovulated or not, hence I am not sure when this cycle should end.

I suspect it will some point this week, I am not holding out much hope for a BFP as I am cramping and feel like AF is on the horizon.

I will keep you posted!

As always, baby dust to all xxx
