Thanks for the response Caroljean....we'll see what the doc says today. Hopefully she can ease my mind. Funny now that I am fertile again, I am a nut job about it! :-)
Okay...I have been on these boards for 2 years now...and I still do not know what 2ww means...please explain.
Thank you so much for posting our daily chart...I really appreciate you for it.

Tawnee...yes I was on 50 mg clomid this month - first cycle on it, and it didn't affect me too much...a few small temp spikes on my BBT chart, a few headaches but most significantly nausea and cramping just before and during my "O" - but I didn't mind that for a few days because at least I knew it was working. I think the side effects increase with higher dosage, which I am hoping I won't need!

Jennifer, I saw a post earlier this summer where one lady described that hard spot so descriptively...she said it felt like there was a sausage under the skin. I didn't think about that a lot until after my TR, and that immediately came to my mind, because it is so true!!! It's been almost 4 weeks, and my "sausage" is almost gone now, LOL, I'm sure yours will shrink in time also.

Tawnee....clomid "tricks" your body into ovulating by thinking it is too low on certain hormones (LH and estrogen) and your ovaries go into overdrive....depending on the dosage of clomid. Docs usually start you off low and increase slightly each cycle to see what makes you "O"....but you do have to keep track of either BBTs or OPKs to determine ovulation when on clomid....thats the only way they know it worked. Good luck! I am hoping it worked for me this month!

I have the same thing under my incision. It is almost the whole length too. It took a long time to go away after my c section and some of it never went away. So I think it is normal.

Hey ladies just wondering if any of you had a hard spot underneath your incision. I remember seeing something about a healing ridge but I was wondering should I still have that 2 weeks after tr.

Well, af reared her ugly head yesterday....so I am now CD2. Although I was bummed, I am at least happy to know that everything is okay and I feel somewhat normal again. Tomorrow I have an appointment with my GYN just to figure out why my cycles keep getting longer and longer.
Question - what does Clomid do exactly? Is that something that helps something like this?
I too use FF, and although I had gotten away from temping have started again with this cycle. My problem is that I wake up at different times all week. DH and I get up at 4 AM most mornings to hit the gym...but days like today, I slept in. I tried using the Clearblue O kit, but my cycles are so out of whack that I would have to use it for like 3 weeks to detect the surge.

Thank you caroljean for the ans. we are going to hawaii sept.4th to the 13th and if i test positive I wanted to know how long I had even though its not good to Waite.I had started another topic about bw and the response was to get my DR to fax a lab there a bw order so that would at lest put my mind to ease if my #'s are going up or down.We have to get to that point first praying for a bfp soon.Thanks again and baby dust to all.
