Clomid 2014 And Beyond

Hi Ladies,

Its almost Friday! I hope everyone is feeling well and in good spirits.

afm: This is day 3 of being so tired and nagging headache that won't go away. It's kind of wet and dreary here in NJ and looking forward to going home. I feel less bloated, some slight cramping but nothing too big. I go in for cd21 bw next week. Last month I forgot to ask what my progesterone level was but I won't forgot this time around.

-Saks & Taurusmom, how are you all doing?
-Ttcbabygl, I totally agree, you want to up your chances of a bfp. That's why we bd eod around the scheduled iui, and just because we want to...:blush::blush:
-Lady_luv, how are you feeling today? Hopefully feeling better.
 
Whoo hoo, I survived my first bravelle injection!!!!


Buttercup, it's yucky here too, so depressing. I'm glad you're starting to feel better!!!
 
Way to go ttcbaby! :)

Hey buttercup! I'm pretty good this way. I've been pretty busy with work and it's been keeping me preoccupied! I'm having all kinds of side affects from the clomid. The ones I read about! Lol. Like...sore bbs, cramps...moodiness! I've read in many places that clomid can give you pregnancy symptoms during the tww...and that's what is going on with me for sure. I'm not upset about it tho- like I said before- at least I know it's doing something!

Hope all are well :)

Good to hear you are doing well! You are right, at least your body is telling you something is going on:flower:
 
Butter - That's amazing! I called my insurance after we talked and whomp whomp. lol We get covered at 90% AFTER the $400 deductible has been met. My insurance changes next year and we only get 80% coverage after a $600 deductible has been met. DH and I were going to take the holidays off and just enjoy, but with insurance changing we decided not to.

TTC - Woohoo! Congrats!

Taurus - DH always asks what wife he's going to get when take the Clomid cause of my moodiness. Poor guy. lol. The weirdest thing though - without clomid I get horribly sore bbs. With Clomid - nada.

Talked to my OBGYN's office yesterday. My progesterone level came back at 48 this month even with the lowered dose of Clomid.

I've had the issue of no EWCM on the Clomid and that's with taking 1200mg guaifenesin daily. They're talking about switching me to Femera and seeing if that helps. Anyone have any experience with Femera?
 
Buttercup thanks for asking how I'm doing. I been cramping a lot and my temp dropped this morning but it might have been because I didn't rest good because of the cramping. How are you doing today?

That's good, covered at 90% with a 400 deductible or covered at 80% with $600 deductible. I know some people that have $1500 deductibles. My employer offers a FSA - flexible spending account that I contribute to on a per pay basis and use the $ to pay for meds and medical bills. The deduction took some time getting used to but it works better for us that way. And if we need to move forward with ivf it will really helps because the meds are more $.

I have to bump your other question because I know nothing about Femera. I think I saw someone discussing it on another thread.
 
This wait after taking clomid is like double the two week wait! :coffee::dohh:

Probably because im focusing on this so much

How's everyone getting on?

:dust:

I agree, it can be torture if you don't keep your mind on other things. My 1st cycle I was over analyzing every symptom. I've decided not to test early. I go in on the 20th for pregnancy bw if af doesn't show up.

Today I'm 5 dpo so I just started 2ww. :coffee:
 
Happy weekend ladies! Hope you're having a good day.

CD11, had my monitoring appointment (bloodwork & u/s) and I have two mature follicles on my right ovary, 23.5 and 15, so I am triggering with ovidrel tonight! I am so happy that this mix of drugs produced mature follicles. I'm trying my best not to get my hopes up, but it is exciting. It's going to be a busy weekend lol!

How's everyone else feeling/doing?
 
Awesome news, ttcbaby! Let us know how everything else went :) fx you catch the eggy!!

How is everyone doing today?

Nothing new my way...cd27. Trying to decide when to test as I'm not 100% on when I O'ed...somewhere between cd18-19 I believe. Feeling as if I'm gearing for af...but not really sure. I have been having clomid side effects ever since O! My moodiness has subsided a bit but I still have sore bbs and am crampy. Like I said before- I won't complain! Fx my bfp is right around the corner!! Hope everyone is having a beautiful Sunday!
 
Hi Ladies,

I hope everyone is doing well, and hoping to hear a BFP from some of you wonderful Ladies.

AFM: I've been cramping like crazy, some pressure on my right side and when me a DH BD yesterday it was kind of painful on the right side. My temp are back up, so I don't know what's going on. I have a doctors appointment on the 20th.
 
Hi ladies :hi:

Can anyone help me please im panicing. Yesterday I was CD 11 and took an ovulaiton test.. but the lines are pink on these and are not the darkest one.. even the control line not as dark as some ive seen on here.

CD 10 I had a funny twinge/pull pain in my left pelvic area, was bearable but didn't last long.

Andyway I took clomid CD 2-6 at 50mg as I have PCOS. And since yesterday (CD11) Had cm that looks clear (Can see through it) and is very watery, there is a lot of it too and I don't normally produce much cm naturally anyway, even OH noticed it whilest beding.. sorry tmi :blush:

And today at CD 12 had cramping on and off for about and hour and an ache/pulling pain behind my belly botton and its stopped now but till have the cm :shrug:

Can anyone look at my ovualtion test please? And please excuse our wall not decorated yet... :dohh:

Hi Sarah,

I'd say you are pretty close, bd eod to cover your bases!

Good luck!
 
Hi ladies,

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

afm: was under the weather all weekend. On Friday I had 2 temporary crowns put on my molars and was in pain and agony all weekend. I finally broke down and called dentist for pain meds since otc meds wasn't helping. I'm feeling much better today:thumbup: but not looking forward to having the permanents put on in 2 weeks.

Today is cd22 and had bw done this morning. I'm waiting for a follow up call on whether I need to take progesterone supp. I have haven't had a lot of symptoms and just waiting things out:coffee:. So far I'm pretty calm since I have so much going on in other areas of my life.

Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their day,ttyl

Sarah, I agree with Buttercup, start bding every other day :) fx!!!! How are you feeling otherwise?
 
Buttercup, sorry about your teeth! I'm glad you're feeling better! I'm guessing the bw was to see if you ovulated??

Afm, CD13 and I am having a rough go at it. Today was our last TI "session" and I am just so done. My back still hurts and now I'm having intense off and on cramping (guessing ov pain, since I'm estimated to O today), but I've never had OV pain before since this is my first medicated cycle, but I guess it's normal? I'm also having tummy issues, my friend who's a nurse says I may have a slight case of OHSS from the bravelle and ovidrel, have any of you ladies experienced this?

Hope everyone is doing well!

Yes, I had my 21's bw today (cd21) to see if I ovulated. I'm still waiting on the call:coffee:.

My 1st mediated cycle I had lots of cramping and pinching going on. In regards to Ovidrel, bd'ing was really uncomfortable and I felt bloated and full. I mentioned being uncomfortable during bd'ing and he said my follies were mature and it's normal but it was almost painful:blush:
