Clomid Buddies (moved from TTC board)

I'm sorry Belle. Still hoping you don't start spotting!

I booked an appointment with another clinic. It's going to cost around $300 for the consultation and initial exam but I feel better with having a second opinion before moving on to IVF in a few months.
 
My ovaries are going crazy today-- it almost feels like popcorn???
 
Like you feel popping in your ovaries??

Ask I hope the consultation at the very least gives you some peace of mind!

No spotting today, but I'll check again before bed. So thats a good sign at least. But of course my brain is thinking its probably just because of the higher amount of progesterone this cycle. My bbs are getting achy today, I'm having breakouts and I'm exhausted. I even started crying hysterically for no reason while driving this afternoon. So PMS is in full swing.

Don't some people actually feel a pop in their ovaries when they O? I think that's just one pop though, not multiple like popcorn! Maybe you should get that checked out??
 
Its just what it felt like.. It wasnt painful or anything.

Ill get CH tomorrow but i dont think its the correct O day.
 
I'm only on cd9 but my opk looks positive this morning...what do you think? Am I not supposed to test until 3 days after finishing clomid? It's been 2 days.

The line to the left looks slightly darker. Is that the test line?

BFN again today and a bit of tan cm. I think the higher progesterone is just holding my lining together better. Still have to go for my blood test this morning. But I'm counting myself out, just waiting for AF at this point.
 
The line of the left is the control line. My test line usually gets darker than the control when it's positive so I'm going to count it as negative...plus I just read that clomid can give a false positive if you test too soon after finishing it.

Very sorry about the BFN and spotting Belle. There's still hope until AF shows!
 
Well it looks like it's on its way to positive. I've gotten POS OPKs on CD 10 before.

Thanks Ask. I'm not feeling too hopeful anymore. We decided we'll do the 3 IUIs and then hopefully start IVF in December. We'll​ just NTNP for the cycles between IUI and IVF. I just can't take this anymore. I want to get the IUIs over with so I know what's coming.
 
I know what you mean, Belle. I should have more hope but the IUI success rate really isn't that high...but high enough that it's worth a shot, or 3.
 
Thats what I think Ask. Also I am still young, so I think I should give my body time, as frustrating as that is.
 
Got an ultrasound and an ovidrel shot this morning. I have two mature follicles and a bunch of small to medium size follicles that aren't likely to be of any use. DH and I have been "prescribed" 3 days of sex: today, tomorrow, and the next day.

Ask, it looks like you and I are around the same spot in our cycle again this month.

Belle, still hoping that AF will stay away and this cycle will be it for you! If not.... well, at least we're hopefully all getting closer to our BFPs!
 
Ugh, i hate that i missed those 2 temps.... FF cant decide when i may have Od. CD18, 22 or 24. I think i have no idea. :wacko:
 
So frustrating Earth! I have no idea!

Beta was negative. AF still hasn't arrived, but cramps are starting so probably just a couple more hours. IF AF shows before 4PM today is CD 1, after that tomorrow is. I've been given the go ahead to do another IUI cycle. We'll be following the same protocol. But I'll add in acupuncture this time.

The nurse on the phone was so overly apologetic and sorry sounding. It grated on my nerves more than anything. I just wanted to say "I don't need your sympathy. Just get to the point and tell me the facts and I'll deal with the rest of it."

I've been digging dandelions out of my lawn. Its strangely therapeutic lol
 
Hi all. I am back. Any new BFP's while I was gone? How's everybody doing?

So we went on our vacation. It was fantastic. So relaxing.

But today sadly I had to go back to work. I also had my annual lady doctor visit. I stopped temping awhile back; when we got the specialist referral. I am still wearing my Ava bracelet though. This month marks one year since we really started TTC. Next month marks 2 years off birth control. Today my Ava says I should be ovulating. But I don't know, I just don't feel very optimistic at all. Still haven't called the specialist. Waiting for this cycle to end before I throw in the towel. :cry:
 
So, I've been slacking a bit this cycle. Took me a few days to get more Vit E, haven't had my Brazil nuts for the past week after moving out. Kinda had a bit of temp rise this morning. Normally when I'm not on clomid I ovulate later, like cd17-18-19. This morning (when I woke up at 9 am my temp was 36.82 which was a lot higher than then 36.68 I had first time I woke up and plotted into my ff. And just after getting up I did a clearblue ovulation test. Peak directly. Could I have just ovulated though? Would it still peak if I had ovulated? Ahg, I should have started testing a bit earlier..
 
Welcome back Lucy, sounds like you had a lovely trip!

Nore its been awhile, did your move all go to plan?
 
temp tanked today... AF is on her way or im just now Oing? We will BD just in case but BFN on HPT anyway.
