Clomid club - before, during and after

[Delilahsown]

Good morning ladies!
Well I am in the hospital with atrial fibriliation , been here since 12:30 yesterday took the kids to the grocery store and while there, I started having rapid heart beat by the time the ambulance came it was 229 bpm... I stayed over night because my heart hasn't converted on its own so I've been poked and proded and given blood thinners because they say clomid can cause blood clotting They did a hpt yesterday when they admitted me but it was a bfn as it was in the morning so I keep telling them I don't want anymore meds until I am confirmed not to be BFP, they just ordered blood work for it and I am waiting for an echo cardiologist to look at my chart and see what the hell is going on with this 35 year old body of mine. They have my heart beats under control by administering meds through an IV, OH MY..... my kids were so scared but they did great by helping their mom

Still no real signs of AF, I have minor cramping in my lower back but at this point I just don't know

Sam sweetie, I undersand not wating to take a test it is depressing so go with with your gut feeling

Lisa - I can't imagine being in your shoes hunny, I know its hard. Just try to keep the positive thoughts sweetie, keep your chin up and know that you can vent to us anytime!

Good Luck everyone, I'll keep you posted but I am in the best place to be with my "condition" ... youngest patient on the floor...hehe but at least I have my laptop
DH has been a REAL GEM!!!!

WHAT?? AFIB??? Oh no's..... I hope that resolves...nothing scarier that having a cardiac condition spring up on you. Its still early- until shows up- you're still not out yet. That goes for onelildream too...

OK ladies, the nurse just came and asked me if its possible that I am pregnant? I said uh yes she said the hcg level is 9.6 she said Very early numbers for a vey early pregnancy? OMG I'm dying inside, Oh please oh please oh please!!!!! I had to tell you all. so that means I would have implanted overnight as today is 10dpo or 11dpo.

 

[babyloulou]

Yay Smile4me!!!! I have everything crossed for you xxx

 

[caz & bob]

hun fx for you hope you get better soon xxxxx

 

[Smile4me]

Aww thanks everyone, I reallllly appreciate it. I am obsessing online now about hcg levels and it looks like a 9 is a good sign, and now they will keep a real good watchful eye on me WHEW!!!

Thanks Again everyone, your support means the world to me!

onelildream- Hun dont give u yet, check in two days its too early as you can see

 

[Onelildream]

Oh, Smile- I hope you are okay. I have a heart condition too and afib happens to me sometimes. I hope it's minor and your heart gets back to pumping the right way. On an HCG front; YAY! 9 is over 5 and they tell people <5 is not pregnant. So it looks like you have yourself a BFP! XOXO. I hope you get out of there soon!

Lisa - I so understand you....My girlfriend whom started ttc the same month as me is on her last month of pregnancy....we were all at dinner last night and most of us are making plans for a july trip which I was telling her about....her response...yeah I guess I wont be having any of that type of fun for a while...my response...yeah well I would def. rather the type of fun you will be having and she just looked at me with this blank stare....I guess she cant understand because she got pregoo the 2nd month of trying....ugh....

sam - sorry you feel out of it....I hope this is just implantation spotting.

smile - OMG, has this ever happened before? That sounds really scary! But woohoo on he hcg9...that is def. a great sign!

Onelil - I really hope you get your BFP in the next couple of days....

loulou - hows our prego friend doing? how are the symptoms?

caz - how are you doing today? any symptoms to report? you are testing soon right?

as for me...I think I am 2 dpo and not to happy about our bding schedule but i guess it is what it is and I wil have to wait and see if by some miracle it al worked out!

 

[caz & bob]

ttc ye carnt wait i will test at 10dpo hunnie ye still bloated very gassy and a few cramp xxxxx

 

[Britt11]

Hello ladies,
omg lots of updates

First off Smile- I am so sorry you are in the hospital for atrial fib, however OMG with the BFP!!! Seriously less than 5 is non pregnant, that would mean exactly like you said you implantated maybe last night or a day ago- did you feel anything? That would also explain why an HPT didnt pick it up either, too early- needs to be at least 20hcg to get a faint line AND it doesnt go into your urine right away.
Going into the hospital is one way to get an early preg test just kidding, I really hope you feel better soon and they release you. I had no idea Clomid could have those side effects


Onelildream- good pma and as we just heard from Smile, 10dpo is still VERY early....you may not have implanted yet or just implantated...give it a couple days and test again

Sam- sorry if that is af on its way, hope you get a bfp real soon.

Caz- hey how are you doing, gassy and bloated is a good sign

TTC- I have always heard ladies say the month they really didnt get in a lot of BD or thought their timing was off was the month they got their BFP! Look at Babylou, I believe that was her situation

Hello to the rest of the girls

As for me, high temp again this morning, havent posted it yet in FF. Feeling absolutely exhausted- other than that nothing. I havent tested this morning (I am 10dpo)... I did a test a 9dpo for the heck of it and it was negative so waiting until 12dpo like I originally said

 

[ttcbaby117]

caz - that sounds like your symptoms last month....hmmm...looks good for you hun! wheres your chart in your siggy hun? did you take it off?

britt - thanks for the reassurance...you are right, I just need to relax! Those sound like promising signs for you....so 2 days to go!

OK ladies, the nurse just came and asked me if its possible that I am pregnant? I said uh yes she said the hcg level is 9.6 she said Very early numbers for a vey early pregnancy?

FX'd....and all my toes, both legs, both arms....you get the idea. that goes for all you ladies testing in the next few day!!

 

[ttcbaby117]

hey delia - how are you doing? where are you in your cycle?

 

[babyloulou]

Ttcbaby- I'm fine thanks. Only symptoms so far are complete exhaustion and a bit of queasiness that kicked in yesterday!

As for the BD thing Britt is right- don't give up hope! I used to cram in as many as I could around ov- but obviously this last month where his sperm had a real chance to build up worked better! Xx

 

[ttcbaby117]

well i have my fxed that this is it for me loulou...I am so ready to be a mom...like all of us on this forum!

Glad hear you are doing well...your story really helps me realize that it can and will happen!

 

[keepsmiling]

xx

 

[ttcbaby117]

thanks keepsmiling...I will test on June 16th...clomid has made my lp 17 days so I will test on the 18th day...if I can hold out!

 

[keepsmiling]

smile4 me, hope u get ur bfp too x

 

[lisaf]

smile - wow I hope everything is ok with your heart, but OMG on the BFP!!! FX'd for you that everything works out perfect on both fronts! Now why didn't any of us think of faking a heart problem to get that early blood test (just teasing of course)

thanks girls for the support... Its just so hard to deal with. It doesn't help any that my temp was back up today. My temps were not consistently this high on the clomid and I'm really afraid its starting to look like my anovulatory cycle did. I know its still early, but its just not looking good CD12, i should be getting some nice low temps in preparation for ovulation.
I'm trying to figure out if there is something else that may be causing my temp to go too high. I read that staying up late can do it, but I was up even later the night before last when I woke with a nice low temp. I've been really active touring the town with my friend while she's here but I did just as much walking yesterday as the day before. Just trying to find a rhyme or reason.

Found this funny tip though:
Don't eat, drink, or smoke before you take your temperature (this includes ingesting sperm!).
hehe
