4 dpo crampy on chlomid?

[scoobydrlp]

All of my other tests were negative AF came and I'm on cd3. This is my last cycle on clomid, praying for a BFP!!! If not, the next step is referral to RE which means $$$$. I'm afraid they're going to say IVF is the only option since hubby's morphology was so low, and I just know we can't afford it. Even with insurance, we have a $4250 deductible, and after that insurance only covers 60% of infertility treatment I think. Please let this be our cycle!!!!

Aw sorry hun do you think it was a false positive or a chemical? I'm positive there was a line. I'm on my 6th and last clomid cycle too, I posted a thread in the LTTC forum to see if there were many others, I've had a few responses but there doesn't seem to be many in the same boat as us... How many rounds have you done? If you've been pregnant before then IUI will have a chance of working, I'm sure they won't say IVF is the only option. Before Clomid were you ovulating at all? x

 

[scoobydrlp]

Im not sure if it was chemical or not. They keep saying theres no such thing as a false positive though, so who knows? This will be my 4th cycle on clomid, that's all my doctor will allow me. I'm not sure if I was ovulating before clomid. We did one 21 day progesterone before clomid and it was low enough for the doctor to say I didn't ovulate that cycle, but not sure about the rest of my cycles.

Fx for both of us this cycle!! Maybe it's our lucky month!

 

[MrsPTTC]

We're in exactly the same situation! One bad progesterone result and apparently I'm not ovulating or have "irregular" ovulation! I was happy to start the clomid though as even if I was ovulating the clomid would help the eggs & bring ovulation forward which it has done . When I go back to the FS next month I'm going to insist on another progesterone test as my theory is - I was ovulating but my progesterone was just low which is why no BFP in 5 months of clomid! Have you thought about taking progesterone hun? I have, as I could buy it off the internet, but would rather the FS agree and prescribe it so I'll see what he says! I hope this is our month hun x

 

[scoobydrlp]

I haven't looked into a progesterone supplement yet...but maybe I should. Do you know if there is any danger in trying it?

 

[MrsPTTC]

Not that I know of, but I'm no doctor lol. It's usually prescribed but you can get it very easily from the internet, I think its like a natural version of it. We can't buy it over the counter in the UK but you may be able to in the US? I was just thinking with your MC & now your possible chemical, maybe it'll help? I'm going to ask my FS about progesterone, maybe get more bloods taken. I'm very tempted to get some myself but will wait until after my appointment. You need to take it til I think 12 weeks too x

 

[MrsPTTC]

Any news ladies? Where is everyone? The thread seems to have died a death!

BFN for me clomid #6 so that's that! Going it alone now, though might end up back on it at some point if we do IUI. Next FS appointment in just less than 2 weeks so I'm looking forward to that. Wonder what the next step is, IUI perhaps? x

 

[scoobydrlp]

FX for your FS appt! Sorry cycle 6 on clomid didn't work out for you. I'm 8dpo and and symptom spotting like crazy. Creamy cm, increased appetite, gassy, occ nausea, and occ pulling type cramping. It's probably just wishful thinking!

 

[MrsPTTC]

It might not be hun! FXd for you when do you test? x

 

[scoobydrlp]

I already tested wednesday and Thursday and have convinced myself that I see *something*. But I'm just now 9 dpo...so it was really too early to get a positive. See what you think. I'll test again tonight.

[MrsPTTC]

Definitely something there hun! But can't quite tell if its a full line. Keeping my fingers crossed for you that your next test is a clear BFP! x

 

[scoobydrlp]

BFP!!! 9dpo soooooo excited. Please be sticky!!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Yay, congratulations hun! . Sending you tons of sticky baby . Keep in touch & let me know how you're getting on! H&H 9 months! x
