Any Clomid Round 1 buddies? - Now with testing dates!

[Born2BeAMommy]

I'm in the 2ww and really hoping to get that BFP next weekend....no AF this week PLEEEASE! ugh!!

 

[McMummy]

mcmummy!

Your the same cd as well are you? I see your South west, same here x

I think I might be a day behind you & Mrs G but close enough!

I am CD4 today and took my 3rd pill, 2 more to go....I think I've been ok on them so far, the 1st night I woke up a few times roasting hot but not sure if that was to do with the pills or not!

Yep grew up in Wiltshire but living in Somerset now

xx

 

[McMummy]

Mcmummie & torilou - aww thats brilliant, we can go through it all together , i havnt had any symptoms apart from feeling abit crampy and light headed but im OK My AF disappeared today so i can start as of today and keep going until after my O period im quite excited although abit nervous about knowing that it could actually be happen for us within the next three months.. my husband is quite chilled god love him, and he hasnt noticed any change in mood from me.. last tablet tomorrow!
Im going for scans to ensure that my ovaries arent over stimulated, and my DR is v.good as wants to keep tabs on whats happening with us.. we feel very lucky to be honest.

Kelster,, my fingers are firmly crossd for all of us this cycle.. your symptoms sound q.promising

xxxx

Just realised I am a day behind you both but still close enough!!
I am CD4 today and have taken my 3rd pill. No crazy manic behaviour....yet lol

Are you going to BD everyday from now til O or every other day?
I am going to start testing with OPKs from CD10... My cycles are usually 35days+ so don't usually O til cd20+ but hoping to O a bit sooner as long as the Clomid is strong enough xx

 

[torilou]

Im cd 4 as well, only have one more clomid to take as only on 4 per cycle, not sure why but its the way my clinic does it, I wont start using opk's until after my scan next friday as they will give me a indication on what day is likely for ov (based on last month anyway) cc

 

[torilou]

oops no ticker says cd5 lol x

 

[torilou]

mcmummy

As for bedding I just go with when I want to, I try not to dictate my sex life too much until clinic tells me when to bd, they did say last month to bd this month on 9, 11, 13, 15 and then next month on 8, 10 , 12, 14 but no doubt I will still do what I decide on the day lol x

morning ladies.. welp looks like the crap DIDN'T work for me.. a had a temp drop.. DAMMIT... so Cheerios I will NOT be testing on Sept 30th now.....

I hope the stuff works for the rest of you ladies.. FX's FX's FX's

 

[MrsGAnderson]

aww kelster im so sorry.. you never know though... i dont think your temp has to rise alot, most of the time people dont even notice it... my fingers are still crossed for you huni xx

Ill be everyday i think, but i dont think it makes a diff between everyday or every other day as if one is going to get there it will right? lol, I also have been having really bad hot flushes so it must be the clomid as iv been getting them alot and i dont normally. and iv been getting some really dull cramps, which sometimes have been really painful. but a[art from that im ok

How is everone feeling? xxx

sorry hun huge hugs it takes a while to get clomid right hun some people dont even need 50mg but some need 150mg+... how many mg's you on hun? i really hope that they sort out a doseage that works for you. too me a while to get use to clomid last time we used it and my cycles were all over the place until my 3rd cycle.

Sorry to hear that Kelster but you never know - its not over til the witch arrives although I know its difficult to stay positive.

 

[mamawannabe]

Well ladies this 2ww is the WORST EVER! When you start TTC you have the whole excitement thinking you are going to make a baby then from about 12 months onwards you kind of give up all hope. But now we are trying something new I cant help but get my hopes up and symptom spot everything going!! So far; sore nipples, odd CM, palpitations, stomach and backache cramps, very high temps....

I know by getting my hopes up it is just going to drop me from an even greater height when witch shows up but I just cant help it

I posted earlier saying when I started clomid but never put my testing date in because I wasn't sure when I was going to test. I just got my BFP. I never thought I would be saying that after six years of trying but here I am. I think I am in shock. I just wanted to give you ladies some hope that it can happen. First round of clomid and first BFP EVER!!!!! Good luck to all of you that you will get your BFP soon!

OH WOW congrats sweetie... heres to a health and happy 9 months for you...

AFM- I got another temp rise today...so maybe I am not out... I was just really frustrated and upset yesterday morning-- but I have all the tell tale signs of O'ing..... mostly the VERY creamy CM and my gums bleed....

Lynne you had asked.. I was on 50mg this cycle and my GYN will only give me 50mg for TWO cycles -- if it doesn't work then I have to go to the fertility specialist...

Mama- symptons sound VERY promising.. FX'd for you.. I HATE THE TWW

thats brilliant news and don't want to burst your bubble but have you had it confirmed? on clomid i had one chemical and one false positive before i got BFP. apparently its really common with clomid.

 

[lynne192]

again i am testing on 13th october for our first round of clomid.

 

[lynne192]

thats stupid why only 50mg? 50mg doesn;t work for alot of people i often need 150mg... did you get a scan or anything? if they are giving you 50mg then they need to make sure it actually works!

because I truly don't think he wants to deal with me because of my age... and because of my two MC within the last year....

he also knows I don't want to waste time....

I asked about my CD21 bloods - he said nope... no scans no bloods..

thats disguesting hun i would demand better treatment age unless your like completely unable to have kids shouldn't be a issue, i hate doctors like that ours was like that because i am soooo young but after fighting her and showing her i know what its about and after my lap and dye they have steped up the care a little...

i would be getting another doctor if i were you. with age you might not have the type of time to waste of these useless idiots....

what was their next option??? have you had testing about your miscarriages etc? do you ovulate on your own usually or were your miscarriages fertility babies?

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Really pleased for you and it has given me a bit of positivity... now for the questions:

Did you ovulate on your own anyway or were you unexplanied and apart from the clomid did you do anything different... any tips gratefully received!!

Congrats again

 

[kelster823]

next option is just straight to the actual fertility specialist who has more knowledge then a OB GYN...

no testing on my the MC... the first I had already MC at home so nothing to do tests on, my 2nd was to early

I only started keeping track of everything in March so my last few cycles were whacky and truly NOT sure if I actually O'd... FF gave me dotted CH only--
