Hi all! Im new here. Ive been ttc for 1 year and 6 months without sucess. :cry:

Im a 32 year old female on my first cycle of Clomid 150mgs days 5-9, and my husband is a 30 year old male with no fertility problems.

He has two other children with his previous wife.

I have had two prior pregnancies with my previous husband that were terminated due to medical neccesity. (I have a chronic lung condition that is undiagnosed but causes me to go into a coma from time to time.) Because of all of the medication I was on and from being in a coma for a month at a time and on numerous medications that the pulmonogist and my RE had me on they recommended termination at 8wks. I was on so much medication they feared there would definately be abnormalities.

I was very VERY much against the termination but was also not mentally prepared to take care of a handicapped child as I had just went thru major illness and major trauma in my life. So, I followed the doctors suggestion.

My first pregnancy was in 5/2006 the second was 01/2011. I am RH- and have had the Rhogam shot. I was never supposed to have children from birth due to a abnormality in my urinary and reproductive system but obviously, those DRs were wrong!! I deeply regret my decision to follow the doctors orders EVERY DAY of my life! Now that my health is under control and I am remarried, we have started TTC again with no BFPs in a year and a half. My cycles are normal and come every 26-27 days religiously.

Since starting my first cycle of clomid this cycle which started CD1 on July 19th, clomid CD5-9, I started charting my BBT, but I cant figure out what my coverline is supposed to be and when I actually O'd?? Can someone please help me by looking at my chart?

Ive attached a snip of my chart. Im driving myself crazy with all the reading and charting and re-charting. And honestly I just dont understand it. I have an apt with OB/GYN on the 15th of this month for a blood test but if I wait until then I will be a mad woman. :) Any info you ladies could give me would be helpful! I believe that I ovulate on CD11 or 12 every month and luteal phase is 15-16 days from past recordings that I randomly jotted down.

I have never felt activity in my left ovary until this month and its continued thru this cycle. It feels like twinges and sometimes shooting pains from my cervix to my ovary or pulling just under my belly button. My CM has stayed creamy tacky white and peaks. And has been this way from atleast CD13. At one point...TMI at CD 12 maybe 13 I had EW CM with clumps of the tacky, creamy, white CM??!! But only for that day. I did use preseed as my OB/GYN said that Clomid could make my CM dry up.

Other symptoms include:
CD9-mild cramps
CD12-OV pains??
CD18-nipples sore and still are but not as bad
CD19-cramps shooting and pulling pains in lower ab.
CD20-mild dull cramping
CD23-breasts feel tingly upon waking but it seems they arent sore but nipples are still sensitive. And my left breast is more sensitive to this tingly feeling?! Is this even possible, if I am pregnant?!

As I said before, Im on CD26 today and the cramping is off and on. I never cry during or before AF and today I broke down for no reason. My breasts are still sore, this morning was the tingly feeling in the AM in my breasts. Thru the month Ive felt heavy and bloated some days and other days I feel perfectly normal. I have had headaches off and on.

I could go on for days but Ill stop now and pray that by tonite SOMEONE helps me ease my mind and gives me some kind of feedback on by BBT and Im well aware I need to stop stressing and obsesssing so much over this process. This month has been the worst because of the Clomid cycle for sure. :)

Please help! I really feel like if I dont have a baby Im going to live with this empty feeling I have inside me that will not go away, knowing full well that I should have 2 children had I not got mysteriously ill and fell into a coma! Not to mention I was misinformed about the RH factor and I was young and dumb the first time and that OB told me that it caused mental ******ation and blood disease. :cry:

Hi FallynAngel79...sorry to hear you were pushed into making choices you didn't want to in the past :hugs:

Yes you ovulated day 11, and got your surge in temperature to prove this on day 12. Your red coverline is correct where it is at the moment. You look back at your previous 6 temps and if your temp is more than 0.1 above any of your previous 6temps then there is a good chance you've ovulated. You can only confirm this for sure once you've had 3 more days of high temps above that coverline. As you've had many more than that you've definately done it :-)

As for pregnancy no one can really say hun. These symptoms could be pregnancy, but also may not be. You'd have to do a test to find out. Good luck x
 
Thank you Baylea! I knew that the website picked those crosshairs themselves just wanted to make sure. My temps still up but I feel like AF should be coming at any moment. I dont remember feeling anything the last times I was pregnant! Weird! But as soon as I tested positive I started puking lol...its all in the head sometimes I guess! I appreciate your response! And thank you for the luck! Good luck to you also as Im sure your here for the same reason as everyone else! :) Ill try and keep you posted on whats going on but I dont really have my hopes up too much this month! My first cycle made me so crazy Im not sure I can handle another one already! I just bought a new home and we are in the process of remodeling, I think once that stress goes away maybe we will have more luck. Im just scared that since we have never been pregnant together, although Ive been pregnant and they were both viable and he has children with someone else, we may not be able to have a baby together! Ugh...so frusterating! Thanks again babe! :)
 
You're welcome hun x

Yeah I hate being here more than I could ever express, but at least there are lots of nice girls to keep us company :-)

We've been trying for 20months, and all of my friends have conceived, and have just, or are just about to, give birth=21friends ughhhhh :-( Not one single friend I have has tried for more than 3 months, makes me feel like such a failure. We conceived at 14months and lost our bubs at 11wks 5days. Everyone kept saying you'll feel better soon, time helps, etc; but 4months on and I'm worst than ever. Feel so sad, just like you; going crazy thinking I may never be a mum.

Anyway I have to keep reminding myself, chin up and hope for the best. Fingers crossed this is your cycle. Yeah update us on how it goes x
