Hello! I'm new and wanted to say hello!

I've posted in other threads with most of my "story", I should have come here first though

I'm 31, my husband's 32 and we've been TTC since August '06, took a break from it because I wasn't having any ovulation luck with 50mg, nor 100mg of Clomid, so decided that I'd loose some weight (I was 175 lbs) then get back to TTC when I reached a somewhat healthier weight.

I lost 30 pounds, took 150mg of Clomid this month, ovulated

and today I'm 8dpo.

I've been obsessed with possible pregnancy symptoms since even 1dpo, but know that Clomid can cause side effects similar to the signs of pregnancy, which a HATE.
I wish I knew if I were feeling the Clomid or myself.........

I've been feeling a pulling sensation around my ovaries/uterus, had a couple light dull headaches and today my hips feel sore.
I don't have any breast tenderness at all though.

I have a 35 day cycle, so I'm wodering when I can take a HPT?
Does anyone have any advice about that-I'd appreciate it!

I'm due for AF next week (Oct 2nd) and my OPK said I ovulated on the 21st of this month.

Ugh, what I wouldn't give for some scientist to invent a pregnancy test that detected the hormone one day after conception

Anyway

I'm happy to be here, you all sound wonderful and

my best wishes
