Anybody else out there waiting for AF to start their first round of Clomid? I'm feeling nervous, impatient and excited all at once!

I am I am!
Let's be cycle buddies.
I met with my doctor today and I picking up my clomid pills today after work. AF should be here any minute now (She's totally knocking on the door with her usual guests- cramps, bloated and twinges) I'm thinking either tomorrow or the latest Friday. When are you expecting AF? My doctor is starting me off on 50 mg days 5-9, how about you? I am feeling all those same feelings too. I think I'm finally getting over my initial shock and disappointment but after reading all these entries for such amazing strong woman I am starting to feel empowered. 
to all!

Infertility is really hard, but I've found being on here really, really helpful - just being able to let it all out, get advice and feel supported has been great.
Is this the first time you're seeing your doctor? They should get you to do blood tests first, to see if you're ovulating. I recommend charting your BBT and CM to see when you might be ovulating, so that you do the blood test on the right day (7-10 days after ovulation). If you check you CM as well as BBT, it might help.
If you're not ovulating, I suggest acupuncture - I can't praise it enough! I took Clomid for 3 cycles and still didn't ovulate, then ovulated first (and second) time on acupuncture!
It's not an easy journey, but chatting to others who know how you feel really helps. Good luck! to you![/QUOTE]
You're right! Im already starting to feel better about starting my 1st cycle on Clomid. I guess the topic is still so taboo that when its something you are faced with none of your normal day to day friends can understand or even admit to encountering. Finding this thread is the best thing I could have right now Keeping me from becoming
This is not the first time Im seeing my doctor. We have been through ultrasound to check for cysts (all clear) and 1 progesterone blood test (June 22-low low numbers). I started tracking my cycles this Jan but I was only uses the online ovulation calendar predictor up until May then I realized it wasn't going to be so easy to just 'wing it' so I started charting my temps and using OPK's (both proving unsuccessful as in temps all over the place and not even 1 + test) . So I admit I'm very early in this whole TTC but my doctor thinks that because I'm borderline PCOS ( only factor is that i am overweight and periods range from 23-35 days) and she wants me to try this out to see if I can ovulate. June I started keeping track of my CM and that added a whole other layer of confusion for me
So now Im waiting for AF to arrive so I can give clomid a try.
You never ovulated on clomid? Did you get pregnant on acupuncture then too? I imagine its a little pricier too correct?
talk to you soon!

As a general question to all ladies on the forum who have gotten 
from clomid...
How many cycles did it take to O? How many cycles did it take to become preggers?
Also, random- how do you get those cute little timelines as stamps under each of your replies? I want one, too cute. Im trying to copy and paste the URL and BNB isnt letting me....

just checking in... tonight was my 3rd day of Clomid. Hopefully my second cycle is successful!
I'm on cloud nine! The line on IC appeared even before the stick had fully absorbed the FMU, and it turned out darker than the control line 
CB digital has put me at 2-3 weeks. Will be seeing the OB for a scan on Mon

Im on day 12 and i have not a single symptom of impending ovulation.... No aches, twinges, etc. even while i was taking the clomid. Whats going on? Grrrr.
I could feel it in my bones that I'm preggo the past 1 week too! Just too many first-time symptoms to ignore. It's ironic because I woke up at 3am today, couldn't sleep so decided to take my temp - and it plunged by 0.3 degrees! Thought I was a goner then, DH was crushed too and he couldn't sleep since, that poor man!
So seeing those 2 lines on the IC was just unbelievable for a few seconds. We actually reread the instructions to make sure we weren't hallucinating!
I hope this bean stick!
