Clomid 2014 And Beyond

Excellent, you are moving along!! I also feel excited and looking forward to claiming what's mine!! I am a believer and know that great things are going to happen for us all!:flower:

AFM: today is cd5 and my 2nd day on clomid. Feeling good and no symptoms. I go in on Tuesday for bw and u/s. Moving along slowly but surely:)

As always, thank you for the encouragement, it's appreciated :hugs:


@Buttercup: I should start Injectibles on October 13th! :)
I am so happy for you and I too feel very good about your progress. Remember, speak it out loud to the Universe and pray (if you believe) and claim your BFP! Say you will be pregnant during the cycle you want. Let the Universe know you are ready to be a Mom and you want it now!
@TaurusMom: Thank you so much! I agree, we really need that extra kindness during this time. I am glad you took a few days off to relax...with no guilt. I always feel guilty when I just sit back and relax. I need to take a few clues from you. :) And, yes, the Christmas pregnancies for us all will be a beautiful testament of God's greatness and faithfulness. I am so looking forward to it!!!!!! We will all be pregnant by Christmas 2014, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen! We will all have healthy pregnancies, with healthy growing babies, and a beautiful, healthy birth, with a beautiful take-home baby! We will all be wonderful mothers and raise beautiful, well-behaved children. Hallelujah!
@CAValleygirl: Good luck! God bless you! It would be so wonderful if you kicked off the BFPs for this thread!
 
Anytime, Buttercup! KUP!
CAValleygirl: Stay busy! :)
Ready4MyBaby: Get ready to be pregnant. I have prayed for all of the ladies in this thread. God is faithful!
 
Hi everybody :wave: I figure I might as well jump in on all the clomid threads lol - the more the merrier right?

This is my first cycle on Clomid. I took 50 mg from CD 2-6. I have a large complex ovarian cyst, late ovulation (CD 17-19), and short LPs (8-9 days), probably all from endo, so they're hoping clomid raises my fertility. So far I'm on CD16 and still haven't even gotten a positive OPK, so I'm definitely starting to struggle with staying optimistic. I had a SLEW of side effects as well - bloating, cramps, irritability, even leaky breasts - so I'm not looking forward to probably needing a higher dose.... but if it ends in a :bfp: it'll be more than worth it.
 
Hi everyone!
I've enjoyed reading your posts. I'm new to BnB. TTC #2 for the last 6 mo. On clomid cycle #3 100mg days 5-9. This month was the WORST. I had every symptom in the book, including vision disturbances, headaches, insomnia, cramping, etc etc. Firstborn was conceived on my 2nd cycle of clomid 100mg. I have consistently O'd on cd19-21 every cycle and AF came cd 33. Today is cd 33 and I have had backache with some cramps in the a.m. Still no AF but the symptoms are there. Had BFN 3 days ago (tested too early). Doubtful we conceived, but going to recheck in a couple days especially if no AF.
Feels good to read about others going through the same (miserable) process.:wacko:
 
@KrissyB: Welcome! Have you talked with your doctor about not getting a positive OPK? I thought Clomid provided automatic ovulation...
@jmft: Welcome! I hope it's your BFP! Keep us posted!
 
CAvalleygirl - I am in the same situation you are. Did two cycles of clomid (50mg and 100mg) and did not ovulate as I have pcos. This month going to try 150mg clomid with metmorphin. Have you taken it before and did it help you ovulate? Also, is it something you take every day or only certain days of the cycle like clomid?

Wishing you the best of luck and everyone else in getting their BFP this month!!
 
SAKS - I actually had an ultrasound to check on my ovarian cyst on Monday, and they said there were a few good sized follicles and I should expect to O soon.... and today I had a pretty good amount of spotting so I figure it's GOTTA be right around the corner. I have heard of some people's O getting pushed back, just annoying to be in that group lol. FXed the OPK is positive today - and maybe it's even a short surge to boot.
 
Okay! Sounds "positive" KrissyB! :) GL! And, thank God for the good follies!!!
P.S. Make sure you BD/DTD all week to catch your surge!
 
Wow!! Did anyone get boob pain around ovulation?? I think I was in less discomfort getting my milk to dry up after weaning my DD..... I've got shooting pains from my nips straight into my lungs lol

Yes - now I'm on Metformin and it DID help me ovulate! That plus my RE has me on 5mg. of a steroid (I know, so weird) but something worked and I got a trigger shot on CD 11 and O'd on CD12.
 
I read a blog on another site recently, where a respondent told the poster not to try to fill her "void" by having children. She also said, she knew from experience that it would not fill the "hole" or emptiness, as she had birthed several children and still felt unsatisfied in life.*

-I agree with the respondent, that people should not have children to try and complete their lives. I believe one must go into parenting, already complete...and ready to share their gifts with a new addition to their life.*

-I see it all the time with single women. They believe that getting married will make their life full and complete...and better. They often get a rude awakening, when they find out that two wholes must come together for full completeness, or one will spend the majority of the time trying to help the other become complete (which is quite draining, frustrating, and annoying).*

-So, I wanted to ask all of you (NTNP, pregnant, and soon-to-be-pregnant) why you really want to be a mother and/or have more children.*
 
I'll go first!

-I want to be a mother, because I have so much to share with my child. I believe I am destined to raise a child in the ways of the Lord. I have always wanted to be a mother. Being a mother/parent is the most important job in the world. I want to be a mother to produce, raise and help develop someone who will make the world a better place. I want to have a child with my DH, as I believe he has a right to have offspring that will carry his name (and his looks). I want to be a mother, because it just feels right. I can feel it in my bones. I feel like God made me for this purpose. I want to laugh, play, shop, garden, travel, and chat with my child. I want to support them in their endeavors and cheer for them from the sideline. I want to be a meddling MIL and a listening ear for my grandchildren. I want to be a mother who is able to listen without judgement, but still give stern, fair advice. I want to be a mother, because...It's just the right thing to do.*
 
CAvalleygirl - congrats on ovulating!! I hope I am able to ovulate with the help of metmorphin and possibly the trigger shot also. Wish you and everyone else on the site good luck in getting pregnant this month


Were you also on clomid?

Good evening ladies, hope everyone is doing ok.

AFM: kind of tired and ready for the work week to be over! Tomorrow is my last day taking clomid :)

From a early age in life I desired to become a mother. I've always had a mature and nurturing soul with a inner strength that women I grew up around possessed.They were strong, selfless, loving mothers who put their family first. I want pass on our family values and be granted the blessing of motherhood, and I pray and believe it will happen.
 
Buttercup, what a beautiful post. You will have your bfp and your beautiful take home baby soon. I know this in my heart! You will be a strong, selfless and loving mother like those of whom you speak! That post made my heart feel so warm :) I understand that feeling completely!
 
Nothing new here ladies... on CD13...waiting for af to arrive around roughly CD 32 so I can begin my clomid cycle! Seems as if time is taking forever to pass!!

Hope everyone is well. Sending positive energy and thoughts to all! Xo
 
Beautiful, Buttercup!!! Thank you for sharing. Your testimony is very inspirational.
-God bless you.
@TaurusMom, JeanJean, CAValleygirl and everyone else: GL with your progress! Keep us posted!
