Clomid club - before, during and after

[Onelildream]

Is anyone testing at 10dpo, ehem, SMILE4ME? Tomorrow is your 10dpo!

I'm TOTALLY a 10dpo tester. I can't help it... I test after that until 16dpo too, if I don't start my period, but I'm hopeful...Maybe a little too hopeful. I hope this is our month, girls! I talked to my cousin last night; she has 3 clomid babies, a set of twins was just born a few months ago, and she was on 50mg, so there's def hope for twins!

Ugh, the wait STINKS!

 

[Smile4me]

Onelildream- Too Funny... I'm sitting at work thinking... when should I test... I'm so nervous this time that I can't stand it.
I have such bad heartburn and cramping in my ...whatever inside, I don't know how to tell what is going on but it is cramping I checked my cervix and its high and soft so i'm psyching myself out... OH HOW I DONT WANT TO BE DISSAPOINTED... I was seriously thinking about waiting until Wedensday.. think I can hold off until then?
lol... probably not but I don't want to see another (NOT PREGNANT)... what do you guys suggest .. I'm due to start on the 5th...

Wow three clomid babies, that's awesome!

Hi Ladies -

smile - I dont test b/c the (-) depresses me more than AF, but it is realy up to you...let us know if you do.

Onelil - you too let us know if you test tomorrow.

well my dh hurt his back yesterday. He has a pinched nerve in his lower back and is on muscle relaxers and pain meds so I think I might be out this month..which sucks b/c this si my last month before surgery. I am so depressed right now. I have done everything right this month and now I cant even get a damn deposit from him. I havent asked if he could do it, but I cant imagine he could on muscle relaxers....Grrrrrrrr, I am so annoyed!

 

[Smile4me]

OMG TTC you crack me up... a deposit from him... LOL!!!! I know the peole I work with think I'm crazy laughing out loud for real... hehe
but I am very sorry that he got hurt and you have to wait out one month that sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But there is light at the end of the tunnel... you could get him all doped up on pain meds and seduce him... hehe tell him he doesn't have to do much of the work... just let him do his deposit where it needs to go and then he can go to bed. My dh hurt his back too and I was like OH hunny I'm sorry we don't have to have our ON night and he said oh no we will, I'll be fine... so you never know hun.

Britt- You bad influence you! hehe
Yea I just can't bring myself to do it... I plan on doing some fun activities this three day weekend to get my mind off of it and then I will test Monday or Tuesday, I still think Monday is too early. I'm already a symptom sucker!!! I'll pick up some tests this weekend though, the only one I have left is a clear blue easy digital that says (Pregnant/Not Pregnant) in my case NOT PREGNANT every time... i hate those things..
I'll get the + - kind, it seems to pick up earlier... any suggestions as to which ones are best for testing?

Lou hunny what day did you test on and which brand?


TO ALL OF MY TTC PALS!!!!

Hi Ladies...just wanted to drop in a wish everyone luck and lots of baby dust !! This time last year I was in the same boat as you are now..we conceived our daughter after 4 months of 100ml of clomid and on the month we conceived it was 100ml of clomid plus injectible ( gosh for the life of me I have forgotten the name of it ) and two days of IUI. I had seven eggs but only one took...and her name is Emily. May you all get your BFP

 

[Onelildream]

future-Awww. Sweet baby girl. WOW 1 in 7... She's a miracle!
Britt-I'm such a POAS junkie, looks like you are too, hun. Hahaha.
Smile-I'm SOOO praying for you hun. I know what you mean about getting your hopes up, but things sure do look hopeful. As for preg tests, I've always just used the dollar cheapies, cause I go through them like hotcakes, over here! They showed up with my son at 14dpo, so they might not be as sensitive, which kinda sucks, but I don't want to go broke!
TTC-I'm only 7dpo... So I'm waiting, but I'm nervous I'm out already...

As for me...I think I'm out... I've had no symptoms, and no implant feelings, but it's still early(7dpo). I implanted at 10dpo with my last pregnancy. Anyway, I'm pretty excited...DH and I are going to shop for a new vehicle tonight! He's been so supportive and told me, "Well, if we're going to have another baby, then we better get a bigger car, huh?" We prob won't buy one right away, but we like to be good shoppers and spend a few months looking for the right one. We're thinking something with a third row of seats, and a built in DVD player... But NOT a minivan. I like the boxy SUV look better.
I worked out all day in the yard yesterday. This morning I was craving MEAT! My muscles must need some protein...Now I'm achy from head to toe! Rrrr. That's enough from me....

 

[Smile4me]

Future- Thank you hunny!!! I'm so happy you had a success story sweetie!!

Onelildream- Why do you think you are out, not having any symptoms yet is common sweetie.... I found this site... https://www.twoweekwait.com/bfpsymptoms/dpo/
alot of women do not have symptoms at all.... You are still in the game hunny, until your BFP or the witch shows up! Positive thoughts going your way hun!!

Haa too funny, I am 7dpo as well!! so we are definite cycle buddies. I have no symptoms either and no feelings of implantation as well, it definitely is early still- i think common is 8-10dpo for implant.
to both of us


Caz- yeah to testing at 10dpo...I'm going to try and hold out until 12dpo

 

[Smile4me]

Caz, Britt, Delilah, Onelildream, and anyone else cycling with us...
Please let us know what/when/how you test ..

 

[caz & bob]

im testing next week with a midstream test xxx

 

[lisaf]

ttc- Oh how I feel for you! Try and see if he'd be willing to get creative? Oh geez, I don't want to get too graphic here, lol... I had plenty of sex with an ex who had knee surgery and at another point had shoulder surgery... not the same as back, but we worked it out.

I'm a total 10dpo tester... heck, I start even earlier to get back into 'practice' because otherwise I stumble to the toilet in the morning at 10dpo and just pee without remembering I was supposed to test. Plus, with my history of spotting by 10-11dpo, I'd never get to test at all if I didnt' test early!

I don't think the digitals are as sensitive though.
Also, I've heard WAY too many horror stories about those +/- tests.... so many get confusing results with the ink bleeding into the +. Blue-dye tests are also notoriously bad. The pink 2 line tests | | style are the best. I use ICs because I'd be broke otherwise. Still so frustrated about my funky test, but thats one odd test out of over 30 I've taken. It might not have been the test's fault either, lol.. I could have had a chemical and taken the test a little wrong somehow. Not a bad track record though.

 

[lisaf]

My new OPKs aren't as dark-inked as my previous batch. This one is all faint/faded even on the control line... anyone experience this kind of fluctuation between batches of ICs? I should still be able to see a positive test, I'm just not sure it will be as blood-red dark as previous tests.

Tested negative yesterday and today. Temps are a little up and down, CM was kind of stretchy, but not egg-whitey... more sticky and just thick... still early days though.

 

[Smile4me]

what is IC?

 

[lisaf]

internet cheapie!

 

[caz & bob]

there not that good i think i like the midstream one because you can test 5 day before xxxxxx

 

[ttcbaby117]

thanks Lisa and smile....
Of course I dont mind doing all the work....Just as long as I get what I need out of him...hahahaha.....I had a talk with dh..he didnt know it was the fertile time of course cuz he asked not to know....but I told him and he said no problem we will try tonight when the meds wear off a bit. He is on a muscle relaxer...isnt his thing a muscle????? hahahaha, not sure if we can get it to stand to attention but we will try....am I wrong....I said that to him and he kinda looked at me like I had 6 eyes. He says he doesnt think it will be a problem, I told him I woudl do all the work and get it into a softcup...Now lets hope this works and I can actually get the damn thing in!

lisa - was your oh on muscle relaxers?

 

[Delilahsown]

:wave:Hi Ladies! I hope everyone has had a wonderful day so far! OMG!! It's been such a hectic day at work. Everyone trying to get their surgeries in before the LONG weekend. I'm so happy to just have the days off to catch up on rest.

Anywho- still neg on my opks. They are getting darker by the day. I am HOPING tomorrow will be the day. I had a temp dip this morning and im still achy in the abs. Would anyone mind taking a peek at my chart? It makes no sense to me at all... had my cd21 progest done this morning, but since its memorial day weekend- i won't get the results til after monday...

sooooo if I do O tomorrow i'll be testing on the 12th? That is my guesstimate anyway...

I just want us all to be swimming in baby dust!
