Hows everyone getting on today?

I feel like i've been hit by a bus today, every muscle in my body hurts like crazy. Not so good, but I am sure I will feel better tomorrow!

Hi Lisa,
How far along are you in your first clomid cycle? Did you feel any different? I'm 6dpo today and the hot flashes are already starting That's usually the first sign for me that AF is coming in a couple days. I have a very short LP of 9-10 days so it would make sense. Oh well... I hope you feel better and babydust to all of you!

According to FF I am 3dpo, so in the long and frustrating tww. My LP is usually 16 days long. The only big difference I found was hot flushes while i was taking the clomid, and then REALLY bad pain during and orgasm for the last few days. I am not kidding, it felt like my ovary was going to burst during bd'ing and I would get severe uterine contractions as well, which got worse if I had an orgasm (sorry TMI ). Despite the fact I know it is far too early to have symptoms I have been nauseous today, and my boobs are killing me, but I have been warned to expect every pregnancy symptom under the sun weather or not I am pregnant when on clomid and I suppose given the fact I am only 3dpo kinda confirms this as its too early to have symptoms.

9-10 days is pretty short, can't the doctor give you something to help lengthen it? Can an egg implant in 9-10 days? Sorry, not meaning to be negative at all, just wondered if you'd spoken to the doctor about it? I sincerely hope AF doesn't get you honey.

Hey ladies!:wave:
Got room for one more here?

Starting 1st round of Clomid today/100mg cd3-7.
Aack! Your side effects are scary.. I'm not sure what to expect there.
Kinda figuring since I get ov pain as is, that it will be more than awful this cycle.
I did ask Dr abt side effects & she told me to take all PMS symptoms and x10...nice!

Not to worry you, but you might want to check w/your Dr abt that LP, hon.
I think vit B-complex (esp B6) is helpful, but Dr could see if there is a hormonal cause (eg, low progesterone).
GL & fx for you!

I'm getting monitored and my progesterone level has always been good on clomid. It also has lengthened my LP already. Before clomid I would start spotting as early as 3dpo and then on and off until AF arrived. No spotting at all on clomid. My RE knows about the short LP of course but he isn't concerned about it.
I don't want to scare you, but if your pains are very bad, I would speak to your doctor. There is something called Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome associated with clomid:
https://www.drugs.com/pro/clomid.html
scroll all the way down to warnings and read under Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndorme. Just make sure your ovaries are back to "normal" if you take clomid again. But maybe you don't even need to and you get your BFP this month! Good luck!

Aww that's great new that clomid has already lengthened ur lp.

My pains have gone now thankfully!! Had a slight nausea yesterday and my boobs are killing me, but I am still only 4dpo so it's early for that to mean anything.

Lisa,

My boobs started hurting with this pregnancy 3 dpo so This could be a great sign

Hey ladies, AF turned up today so I have one more cycle of Clomid left, then it's back to au naturelle, with supplements and acupuncture. Quite looking forward to it actually. I suppose I am fine about coming off Clomid as I know we have a plan with IVF/DE, takes the pressure off.

Love to you all. xx

 

[Lisa2701]

How's everyone getting on? Everyone's been really quiet for a few days .

I am now 8dpo, and my boobs are killing me, I keep getting really bad pulling sensations/cramps and according to my DH my mood swings have been really bad. Personally I didn't think I'd been too bad, but my DH would like to differ .....

 

[filipenko32]

Lisa you sound preggo to me!!
Girls just to let you know that omega 3 oil capsules bring ovulation forward.

 

[filipenko32]

Heavenly I hope everything goes well for you with the ivf Or next clomid cycle sorry showed

 

[owl35]

I'm 11dpo today. The longest I've ever made it without spotting. Was monitored at 7dpo. I ovulated 3 out of my 4 follicles and my progesterone was 20. Poas this morning and bfn. I guess this is it for me as I feel af coming too Good luck and baby dust to all of you

 

[kel21]

You're not out till the witch shows!!! Fxd owl!

 

[Lisa2701]

I agree with Kel.... your not out yet owl and the fact that your still hanging in there at 11dpo with no spotting is great news!! I am keeping my FX for you honey .

Thanks filipenko, I am trying not to get my hopes up, but I do definitely feel different this month. The type of pulling/cramping I am having is one that I have only ever felt once before....when I was pregnant with my son! HOWEVER, this is the first time I have ever been on clomid and someone told me to expect every pregnancy symptoms under the sun after ovulation weather I was pregnant or not, so I am keeping this firmly in my mind during the TWW.

does anyone else get LOADS of creamy cm after ovulation? This month I have hundreds of it and I don't usually, is this down to the clomid?

 

[filipenko32]

Lisa I have only gotten loads of creamy cm on pregnant cycles minus clomid but I am getting it on this clomid one too! So I'm not sure!

 

[owl35]

Thx for all the support ladies. I literally started spotting 30 min after my post. got me again! This was my last clomid round and my RE wants me to move on to injections I will still stop by to hopefully see all of you get very soon! FX!

How is everyone getting on?

I am now 13dpo and bfn this morning. Does anyone find that clomid causes REALLY bad PMT? I have been an emotional wreck the last few days, I have been such a b***h towards my hubby and mother. Got some serious apologies to make, but I just can't help myself just now. I normally become quite stressy when AF is due but I actually feel like I want to rip some ones head off right now. Not a nice feeling Could this be clomid related??
