That's normal in early pregnancy isn't it? Loads of women say they didn't realise they were pregnant because they had bad AF cramps- and remember when monitoring our cycles this closely you find out sooner and get your BFP way before most people! So I honestly think cramps are nothing to worry about- not unless they are agonising!

hi ladies ...

laura hun cramping is normal in early pregnancy...

hope31 i was referred to the CATS clinic its a mobile thing that stops off in parts of manchester, they have allsorts there and best of all a gyno it was the gyno that told my gp how to monitor me and 3 months later no ovulation so my gyno gave my gp instructions and permission to give me 3 rounds of clomid .. i am now going onto 100mg for 2 cycles and then to have 21day bloods on the second cycle of 100mg if still nothing i'm being referred to a fertility specialist in manchester hospital ... my gp just wrote the perscription on behalf of the gyno .....

i was the 1 telling my gp whats wrong with me , what happens next and how to get it n when i've got it what to do hehe xx

hi ladies how are we all today? xx

 

[babyloulou]

Morning everyone!

Hi Kissy- you may still get a full round of Clomid then once you get to the specialist- cos I couldn't get anything of the GP or Gyno- they said I had to be referred. Once I was it was 6 mths of Clomid. So a specialist may keep you on Clomid for another few months!

How are you today Laura? Have the cramps eased off?

My temp was 36.85 this morning, so still above the coverline!

 

[laura6914]

hey girls thanks for calming me down last night. yeah they have eased off loads. think i just majorly panicked last night. they are still there today but hardly noticable.

How is everyone?

thats a good point lou ... my gyno gave me it as he knew what the problem was and thinks that if 50mg won't get me ovulating 100mg will so fingers crossed it ... gyno reckoned that because of the imbalance of hormones since teenage years is the reason my ovaries aint playin ball hehe so just to give em a kick in the right direction and see how things go ....

what you said yesterday about wearing clothes well i struggle to find fashionable clothes sometimes, they're either 2 short or 2 long i must just be an awkward size ... ya no when u buy jumpers and they're a lil long in sleeves and you think after i wash it it'll be just the right length well with me they just fit when i buy them n 1 wash usually shrinks them hehe ways are changing tho they've accepted that bigger women are also taller n tend to makem sleeves and lengths longer i rem when i was about 12 i was same size shoe as my mum now i'm the same size shoe as my brothers hehe xx

 

[xkissyx]

glad to hear the cramps have gone and lou was right in what she said last night as were paying our bodies close attention we scrutinise everything and often find out way before most women xx

 

[babyloulou]

Glad your cramps have eased Laura- you are bound to worry about every twnge for a while! Are you still doing a HPT every morning too I would be! In fact I'll make a confession- I did one this morning and I am only 9dpo (that's if I actually ovulated!)

 

[babyloulou]

Kissy- I've just clicked on your siggy instead of my own by mistake- and I can't believe how high your temps are!!!!! Is that just the Clomid then according to the doc??

 

[xkissyx]

yer accordin to the doc ovulation hasn't happened n progesterone is low and so my high temps are just my own doing ... i thought they were pretty high but i wasn't sure as any other cycle i had high temps due to takin norethisterone .. i don't have a clue what my body is doing anymore other than not ovulating ...

i don't mind you looking at my chart or anyone tbh xx

 

[babyloulou]

They are about the same as mine- but I have never had high temps before- they've always been so low that I thought I had a thyroid problem. They have always been between 35.70- 36.40. Never any higher than that until clomid. They have always had no pattern to them and just been very erratic. This is the first month either database has attempted to see ovulation.

Have you got another prescription for Norethisterone?? With my doc being away I am gonna have to wait a week and a half for any prescriptions if my bloods come back as no ovulation.

 

[xkissyx]

yer i've still got 10 days worth good job really as the doctor said to wait and see if AF is a week late before callin for a perscription of provera or northiterone so i'm going to get a test on monday just to be sure and then start the norethiterone ... do ya reckon 5 worth will bring on AF or should i take the full 10 days? xx

 

[babyloulou]

I'm not sure- I took Provera to bring on AF for my HSG and only took 5 days and it worked- but then for the norethisterone the doc made me take 10 days?? I guess I would do what the doc advises you to- even though it's annoying as it's more waiting!!

 

[xkissyx]

yer for sure it's yet more waiting i hardly see why i should wait a week after AF is late to take it tho because i then takes another 2 weeks to get AF so all in all i won't able to start another course of clomid till 3 weeks on monday it's so fustrating xx

 

[babyloulou]

I know - my doc said the same thing. I think we have to wait just incase we're pregnant. It's like NurseKel said- they told her she hadn't ovulated and she was pregnant, so I suppose they just have to be careful

 

[babyloulou]

Is anyone on here giving in to a glass of wine occasionally? I've cut it out and not had any at all for nearly 3 weeks! But I really fancy a walk to the pub with the fella and dogs and a glass of wine! Is that really bad??? Is everyone else tee-totalling??

 

[xkissyx]

yer i guess your right but kel wasn't far off the progesterone ovulation limit i'm well off ... i have a glass of wine last night first 1 i've had since xmas and it went down well! hehe xx

 

[ablacketer]

I believe that the rule is the occasional glass of RED wine is fine

 

[babyloulou]

Well that's alright then- I had a (slightly large) glass of red! Won't feel toooooo guilty!
