Well i woke this morning with nause, and upset stomach oh yeah and the runs lol sorry tmi. so i guess that is how it helps with the weight loss

 

[familyready]

Yes! ha ha i got over that in a week, but my doc said if persisted to contact her and they could lower the dose.

 

[wantanerd]

Yeah you have to get used to the meds first and then it is pretty ok

 

[gueyilla1985]

Im not feeling bad in the after noon i think its cause im starting off at 500mg and in a week i have to move up to 1000 and if i can take it i have to go to 1500 by week 3. but i think once i start taking more ill feel it thru the day

 

[familyready]

Well That is good, I will tell you which is probably obvious I had adjustments everytime I uped my dose =)

So Has anyone had better luck with one brand of OPK versus another one?

 

[anna_marie]

I've had a positive on first response opks. I'm was using up&up brand from target and they're alright. My next cycle i'll be using wondfo. I think thats what it's called.

 

[gueyilla1985]

i love the wondfo one i have to order more before this cycle start. i order then from amazon.com you get like 100pc. for like 25dls lol

 

[anna_marie]

Lol Yepp! So cheap! I love it! I ordered the 40 opks and 10hpts for about $8

 

[familyready]

hmm good to know I am using Clear Blue right now, but I swear I am ovulating and it is not picking up, i guess i will use these till i run out!!

 

[gueyilla1985]

I think sometime the cheap one are the best.

Hi. I'm Nicole, my OH is a Marine Prowler Pilot and we are currently stationed in Japan. We've been TTC for two years and have had 5 miscarriages. I'm currently in my TWW of my 2nd round of 150mg clomid...

If this doesn't work we are going to start seeing a private practice RE as my military RE is out of ideas All of our tests and genetics are clean. They can't fiind a reason as to why I keep miscarrying, but it's extra hard doing it in the middle of a foreign country with no friends and only a husband who has no idea why I'm so upset about a CP. lol

Nicole-
I can relate to you on one thing and that is the miscarriages, I had 2 in a previous relationship and 2 in my marriage, both my husband and I are healthy. I am also on Clomid this is my first round this month. But my husband does not understand a lot of it either. He wants a baby just as bad as me, but he is not in a rush like me. But welcome we are here to help and be much of a support as we can!

 

[gueyilla1985]

words cannot express how knowing that women who want a baby so bad just keep loosing them.. I know our angels are looking down on us and are smiling cause they know what awaits us.. many blessings

So I have a Tricare/ military clinic rant:

I went to see my PCM two weeks ago to seek a new referral to my fertility specialist. I didn't see my PCM, I saw a physicians assistant who said she would write my referral. So I get a call today from my FS informing me they never received the new referral and I am only covered for one more visit. And there's a possibility I would have to go twice this week.
So I call Triwest and they told me they never saw the referral. I go to the clinic and they say they wrote it. Well thanks to some sort of mistake I might have to pay for treatment. The referral should have shown up as denied if it was but Triwest has no record of it. It should have went through since I am doing the military approved treatment that is 100% covered according to their website and my FS.

If this is b/c I didn't see my pcm (even though I requested him over a month before when I made the appointment) I am going to go nuts. So now I am waiting for a call telling me what is going on. I don't have the money to pay out of pocket for anything and this is my first month the FS agreed to start treatment.

My positive attitude is about to go out the window.

 

[familyready]

If i where you I would talk to your FS and see if he will work with you on rescheduling, I know that it may not be helpful, or see if their is anything that he was going to do that you could do at the MTF, because if they dont have your referral on file, they will not cover it, even though they said that they will write the referral. That is the one down side to Tricare

has anyone ovulated but not have it show up on a OPK? I am pretty sure I ovulated but the kit is either deffective or I have not!

I have!
Especially if you're using IC OPKs!!!

I can't get those things to pick up my O if my life depended on it. I temp so that I have a back up plan though, so it's not a huge deal to me

 

[familyready]

I think I am going to start doing temp, this is the second month in a row this is happened and well those ovulation kits are not cheap!!!

 

[wantanerd]

I can't reschedule since it's an ultrasound to see if my eggs are ready. If I reschedule, I miss out on this cycle. I don't know when I ovulate so I am relying on the FS to tell me and they will do that by ultrasounds and visits.
