Reintroduction and triggered last night

in TTC after 35

Hi ladies!

Well since the last time I was on this board quite a while ago, I had a BFP, saw the HB twice but was measuring behind, and then had my m/c and D&C in April.  I then wandered over to TTCAL and was pretty active on there for awhile, but ultimately left that board because the drama wasn't conducive to my healing and have been on a bump break since.  Anyway, since the m/c I've had three unsuccessful cycles on Clomid 50mg and I am now on my first cycle with Clomid 100mg and Ovidrel trigger.  I had three good follies on my u/s on Friday and just triggered last night, so I'll ovulate tomorrow if all goes according to plan.  My RE told us to have sex yesterday to "clear out the sperm" and then to BD on Tuesday (the day I should ovulate) and then every other day for the rest of the week.  I'm wondering if we should also BD tonight?  What do you all think?  Also, I've never triggered before, so I'm wondering if there's anything you all think I should know about that.  The RE nurse told m not to do any OPKs because "You're going to ovulate so there's no point", but I don't know if I can keep myself from doing it!  Do you still check OPKs after a trigger?  

I read through some of the posts on this board before writing this and was delighted to see the BFPs!  I know those ladies have been trying for a long time.  That gives me hope for the rest of us who are still trying!  I feel really positive about this cycle for the first time since my m/c.  I really hope this is the one...my due date from my loss is 11/07/2011 so my personal goal has been to be pregnant again by that date.  I'll be heartbroken if this doesn't work.  FX for all of us!

    The trigger shot will turn the OPK positive so don't even bother wasting it.

    It sounds like you are doing TI?  Definitely have sex tonight. If you doing an IUI (which it doesn't sound like it), skip sex as you will have the IUI in the am.

    We're doing TI.  I think we'll probably BD tomorrow morning.  I put in a call to the nurse at my RE's office to ask again if we should BD tonight too and also to see if I should start baby aspirin.  So we'll see.  Thanks for the reply!

    I don't have any advice but I did want to welcome you back, although I don't think that I was here when you were before.  Good luck.

    Thanks for the welcome back!

    We BD'd last night and this morning, so it's out of our hands now.  I hope, hope, hope it works!
