Conceiving on Clomid...?

Ok I am confused and was hoping for some help. Yes, I am going to see my Doctor on Monday for an ultrasound...but thought maybe there were some women on here with experience using this med. I just finished my first cycle of 50mg, on days 3-7 and am supposed to have timed intercourse for the next 10 days every other day...but, I haven't had an LH surge yet and my cervical mucous has not become fertile. I guess my question is...when does ovulation typically occur after a cycle of Clomid? I chart and also use an ovulation prediction kit to tell me when my LH is surging. Any nice advice would be greatly appreciated!! I usually ovulate like 8 days before my period, so this is why she put me on Clomid.

Thank You!

Update:

Lord, thanks for your rude answer...obviously you have no clue. I have been trying to conceive for 2 1/2 yeard "THE OLD FASHIONED WAY".

    I used 6 clomid for 6 cycles before conceiving. Prior to being on clomid, I rarely had periods. Even on it, my cycles were about every 45 days.

    If you are ovulating 8 days before your period, that might be why you are having trouble getting pregnant. The phase between ovulation and your period is called the luteal phase and is almost always 13 days. I believe it needs to be that long for the implantation to occur properly. I don't know if clomid helps with that or not.

    You already have one child according to your avatar - maybe one is enough and these mechanical processes like clomid and "timed intercourse" are only serving to make the process more difficult. Maybe you'll wind up with dectuplets and everyone will give you $Millions in resources.
