Good luck! Hope you're able to keep busy during the 2ww -- I think the 2ww is worse than waiting to O.

Hey Ladies,

I realize this thread has been going on for a while, but I just started my first TWW after clomid. Would love to join this thread and learn from you all... I'm new to PCOS and clomid and feel like I still have a lot to learn.

DH is out of town but I still had a Valentine... my mom! I just got home from dinner. How was yours? Do anything romantic? At least since you're in the TWW you can for fun!

Happy Valentines all.

Welcome newbies. I am in the 2ww. I am going to assume that I am 4 DPO. I had a +OPK on CD15 and a temp rise, but fertility friend says "ovulation on confirmed"

Good luck Fruitful. I often wonder if you should invite the "inseminator" to the first bday party. At least maybe take a pic of her down there smiling for when the baby is older.

Good luck to all in the 2ww. Stay sane and eat chocolate. It is my motto. I find the temping really helps so that I get "the news" at a controlled time. I like to know of impending first thing in the am when I temp rather than be surprised at work by a sudden flow.

I'm in the home stretch of my TWW! Thank goodness!

Happy Valentines day everyon!

Lisa, lucky you!

Tonight was fun, DH and I went to dinner and then to the casino, to have a little fun and gamble a little. Bummer, no drinking for me....oh well it will be so worth it to get a BFP.

I have a question for you ladies, my moms birthday is next week and my grandparents invited us down for dinner on Sat ( 10 DPO) I really would like to go but I am really worried to, here is the deal, my grandpa just had radioactive "seeds" implanted in his prostate 4 weeks ago tomorrow. The doctor told him not to be around anyone pregnant for at least 6 months, or at least 10 feet away for that long! I have no idea weather I am pregnant or not but I hate NOT to go and not be and wasted the time not spent with my family, I also would hate to BE preggo and risk harm. I am so torn, my grandparents totally understand but I am confused because I figure, he goes to the grocery store and is around people who don't know yet possibly, right? They didn't confine him to a house or anything? Ughhhh, just don't know? Any advise?

Your chart is looking good!!!!

And I just got yet another +OPK. I'm officially baffled. I even did the digital one just to be sure. And I'm not preggo because I didn't see any temp shift, so my body is just pumping out the LH i guess?? Felt a couple more twinges in my left ovary today. Why won't this egg just burst out already!! Sorry, needed to vent, and DH just stares at me and tells me to go to a doctor every time I tell him I don't know what is going on with my body.

Did you happen to get a +OPK around day 16??

That was the only day I didn't test. I was out all day and figured I didn't need to test because I had the spike and a +OPK a few days back. CD14 may have also been +, but it was hard to tell, so i just left it blank. These cheapie tests are so subjective sometimes, but all the times i have + listed were verified by digital OPK's.

You had a major temp spike that day!! And the rest of your temps have stayed above your coverline. Maybe you did O around then???

Hi everyone. Im new to this site and was hoping i might learn something here. My husband and i have been ttc for 4 years. My periods are very irregular. Dr gave me provera and metformin 6 months ago to try and regulate my period. Its starting to come around. Today i had an appointment and dr gave clomid 50 mg for one cycle. Then 100 mg for 2. Im nervous and excited to start this process. Hoping it works for us

 

[dalismom]

welcome! Glad you are here with us! I am new too and this seems like a great place to come and talk and vent and share your expierences. I wish you the best luck!

happy heart day to you too! did you guys win big? hope so!

that is a rough situation to be in....is there any way you can go but keep your distance? if you are having doubts i would contact your dr.

hey ladies- I'm in the 2ww, 7dpo. I feel like crap, I have had a horrible cold since Sat and I think I am going to the nurse in a little bit (my office has on site nurse who can prescribe meds). do you think it's bad to take antibiotics during the 2ww? I feel a sinus infection brewing

 

[Chloe597]

Jenny - I took amoxacillin when I was in the TWW several months ago. I think its pretty safe. many antibiotics aren't, however.

Got ANOTHER +OPK yesterday. I took a pregnancy test this morning just out of curiosity, and of course, BFN. If i did O after my first +OPK i would be 11 DPO today. I can't wait for my RE appt, and can't believe i was considering rescheduling. This is a classic PCOS symptom, as is the awful acne I got coming off of BCP, and yet my doc says based on hormones taken at a random time of my cycle that i do not have PCOS. Something is clearly amiss.

 

[mrsjennyg]

thank you Chloe I hope th doc gives you answers- that must be so frustrating!
well I went down to the nurse and told him about the progesterone I am taking.... and he's like, sorry we can't treat anyone who is pregnant or trying to get pregnant. of course I started to cry- haha. he did examine me and said my ears and throat were ok and that my nasal passages are swollen. so he said if he was able to give me anything it would be musinex and ibuprophin. is that safe to take during the 2ww??

Thanks! Trying not to get my hopes up though. My temp went up a bit the last 2 cycles on 10 dpo so it prob doesn't mean anything. Blah.
