Hi everyone

Can I join? I'm taking my first dose of clomid (100mg) tonight (cd3-7). My RE is going to monitor me by ultrasound and then give me the trigger shot once I've got a mature follicle. After that I have to go on progesterone suppositories cuz I've got a luteal phase defect until I have a beta two weeks later to determine if I'm pg.

Horsey and Elle - I've had both an HSG and a Saline Sono and I was TERRIFIED for both, but they really weren't bad - they just kind of felt like period cramping. For both, I had a sharp, intense cramp when they first injected the saline / dye but it only lasted about 5 seconds and then it was gone. Like Breaking Dawn mentioned, take a few Tylenol or Ibuprofen before the test and it should help. GL to you both!

Hey All,

Well I had my saline ultrasound this afternoon and let's just say I didn't do well with it. It was pretty painful for me and at the end, I ran to the bathroom in their office and threw up! hahaha. No but really, It was not fun, it felt like someone was taking a needle through my uterus while having really terrible cramps! Geez, I am not kidding. I think I have a really low pain tolerance though! lol.

So the good news, everything was clear! Only problem was my uterine lining was thin so I need to take estrase (sp?) to build up my lining. I go on Sunday for another (regular) u/s and if all looks good they are giving me a trigger shot and iui next week.

Phew, glad it's over.

Horseypants- I hope you did okay today!

Breaking Dawn - you must have high pain tolerance! lol!!

Sorry girl

I think I would have to say there is nothing worse than a UTI.
