Welcome Aarya! We're just trying to hang in there. Hoping for our BFPs! Nothing today! Just in the tww! Hey girlies!

 

[OoOo]

Cd 20 for me. I don't feel anything. Might have cd 21 bloods tomorrow just to see if I ovulated without clomid. Feel like I'm losing hope really. Just going to gym and losing weight so I have something to focus on because ttc has made me sad and ill. That's why I haven't been on here much

Don't feel disheartened it will happen when it should. I was trying last year and nothing worked. I did provera metformin and chlomid. I tried vitamins and everything I was advised and nothing! So I took a break lost 20lbs and here I am trying again. Maybe you need a break or something to take your mind from solely thinking about this. I plan to take a class for make up or something so I won't go mad this time around. Gyms tend to give you more thinking time than anything else. Hope you get good news tmrw at the doc

 

[MsBee21niya]

OoOo...Sorry that you're feeling that way, I totally understand! This TTC is really hard, very stressful and I too at times want to give up, but then I think if I give up it'll never happen. This cycle I'm clomid free as well, doing the natural approach which is fertilaid and I did O. But I haven't felt anything really besides O day which has me thinking I could be out. Hurtful but I can't do anything about it. I just pray one day soon it'll happen. I'd give anything to be a 1st time mommy. Good luck to you! I'm here for you!

 

[OoOo]

Thank you so much for your kind words aarya and ms bee xxxx

Hi guys I'm reading all these threads where people are speaking about the side effects of chlomid and metformin. When I was using it last year I felt those symptoms too but this time around there are none! Does that mean they are not working ?

 

[MsBee21niya]

Aarya...No it doesn't mean that, because at first I had symptoms, then after 1st round I didn't have any except for cramps/pain around O time. Are you being checked? Because I know my 1st round the 50mg didn't work so that same cycle they upped it to 100mg and I had 3 follies but still bfn! Not having symptoms means nothing!

No Msbee I'm not being checked I was just given the prescription and told to try them and if it doesn't work I should return in three months. Here in Jamaica the doctors rarely do such close monitoring unless you go directly to the hospital.
I take my meds at night too so that might have something to do with it. Although I wondered if I shouldn't also have even a few day time symptoms. I just thought for sure with all those hormones in the pill there should be some evidence of it working. We will see I guess

 

[MsBee21niya]

Ok Aarya...No need to worry because alot of women tend to not have any symptoms at all. I hate that you can't be checked though, because that would ease your mind a little but to be sure that you do Ovulate you should temp, that way if you don't O that would let you know that your dose needs to be upped. I went from 50mg and my next round will be 150mg. So you just never know! Also it doesn't matter when you take them, some women take them at night just in case there could be bad symptoms. I took mine morning and night and nothing happened to me, but everyone is different. Just be sure to temp! What cd are you?

 

[MsBee21niya]

I'm cd22 today and my side had been hurting on and off all day, but this is my natural cycle/fertilaid cycle so I'm not sure what it is, just happy to know I did O. I'm not confident that I'll get my BFP though. Hopefully one day soon though. Trying to decide if I'm going to do clomid next cycle or give fertilaid one more cycle...

I do not have a clue about this temping thing though but I will do my research. What does firtilaid do ? I hope the cramping in your side is a good sign that this is your time. This ttc journey is so exhausting sometimes.

 

[MsBee21niya]

Aarya...The fertilaid has something in it called vitex, which makes you Ovulate like clomid. Clomid thins alot of ppl uterine lining, but fertilaid is the natural approach and you don't need a doctor to prescribe it, you order it online. With tempting you get a basal body thermometer and before you get out of bed in the morning, you take your temp. Before you ovulate your temp is usually in the 97's or 96's, after and if you ovulate it goes up to the 98's. That's how I know when I ovulate because I take my temp every morning, before talking, kissing, getting out of bed. And atleast 4hrs of sleep, so when you first get up in the morning. If you can they have this website or you can get on your phone called fertility friend. It helps you out alot. That way you won't have to assume if you did or didn't ovualte by symptoms being there or not being there. I hope the cramps are a good sign as well but I'm not counting on it. TTC is very hard, but look into tempting!
