Hi there... this is the start of my baby making process.  I had surgery to open my tubes and stared on Clomid and my doctor says all systems are go!  Do I stop drinking coffee and wine right away? how many attempts does it take?? What should I be doing and not doing??????????  any help will be appreciated.  And some happy new from others would be more than welcome.

Hi, YES I did get my beta numbers.   Friday's beta #1 was 1030 and today beta #2 was 2847.....so I got my BFP.  We are walking around in a wonderful daze right now.  Let us know how you are making out.

There's a lady on this forum - PamelaBee - who got pregnant at 42 and is pregnant now at 45.  It's not unheard of but it's a tough road for sure.  If you want more information, start a new thread or send a note to her - she'll be glad to answer.
