hahahahaha, Lisa you are cracking me up....I promise there will be a temp tomorrow...and I pray it will be higher then I can test on Monday with some confidence.

yeah I agree about the symptoms..last month I had a bunch too so I need to just relax!

britt- did af show up??????

Hey girls, how are you??
only had a chance to read through some of the updates!
TTC- I agree with Lisa where the heck was your thermometer??lol...I dont leave home without it, packed it right away in my suitcase
Okay your symptoms sound great- and also looking forward to your temp tomorrow.

and no TTC AF did not show up?? So I am officially late AND the cramps have subsided for now.... I really dont have any preg symptoms though so I think my body is playing tricks.
Girls can you look at my chart is it possible i O'd later than FF said? i got a massively +ve opke on the 13th but seems wierd to O the same day....
any input is appreciated.

sorry didnt write down names but Moonmama- I would test too, would love to see those 2 lines

Lisa- how are you feeling?

Caz- sleep well, look forward to seeing your BFP tomorrow

Hi ladies. Can I join? I'm 31, and TTC #1 since August. Been dealing with irregular cycles (37-46 days). Taking clomid days 5-9 of my cycle. Been having horrible headaches all week. Not sure if it's from the clomid, my sinuses acting up, or the fact that I gave up caffeine last weekend. I'm also taking EPO.

Quick question...when should I start taking guaifenesin? I keep finding conflicting advice.

Thanks in advance ladies!

todteach.. well the boobie status and clothing sounds promising.. I just know I hate it when my hopes get up so it might be best to assume its just a Clomid effect for now.

Britt - I am the same way about my thermometer... but if you get any weird temps while away from home, you then wonder if the travel/strange place has affected temps!!

I'm still having cramping.. and its getting my hopes up.. think Sunday (7dpo) is too early to test??

Lucie - I've heard headaches are experience by some women though I think most of the side effects are really just for the days that you've taken the medication so maybe they'll stop? Caffiene withdrawal will definitely cause headaches though so either its just that, or everything is contributing just a little and resulting in the headaches.
I took the guaifenesin a little sporadically. If I wasn't BDing that night, I didn't bother with it. I couldn't take it 3 times a day as I'd read so I just did it 2x. Again, I only did it for a few days. I didn't take it on my first 3 cycles and my CM had gotten less and less ideal. Even taking it like I did made a HUGE difference in my CM (either that or my body is just all messed up and does something different each time).

Thanks lisaf. I'll try to do the same. lol. I'm such a symptom spotter. Threw up last night too, but I'm only on cycle day 17 today, so it can't be related to any possible chance of a bfp in two weeks from now.

 

[lisaf]

Lol, I've done the same. I got dizzy a while back and for one moment got very excited.. then realized I was only on CD5 or something like that.. laughed at myself pretty good though.

Yes, sore boobs/nipples can be a side effect of Clomid. Progesterone after ovulation can be higher with Clomid. I know I'd never had sore boobs/nipples at all before Clomid and on my first cycle my boobs/nipples started hurting soo bad from like 7dpo onward.
It was less intense the last few cycles. It REALLY got my hope up that first month and I didn't find out it was a side effect of the Clomid until after.

Thanks I really wanted to know if anyone has felt sore nipples from clomid before getting my hopes up!!!

Mine started straight after ovulation so I was a bit scared that I ovulated a day later than I thought but I had my ultrasound on CD17 and he mentioned that I was going to ovulate withing the next 12 hours plus I had a positive OPK and ovulation pains to confirm for CD 18 its reflected in my chart as well.

I have also been leaking colostrum for the last three days, I heard about progesterone causing water retention which is why some people feel breast to become more tender during ovulation. Omg this is just painful it feels like the first week I breastfed my son but I have had the highest temp ever since charting today so maybe its just the progestrone.

Thanks hun for your input its much appreciated

Hi ladies.. I have a question. I did my first cycle of clomid in April..I got a BFN and started AF today and it is super SUPER heavy. I wonder if anyone has experienced this before?

 

[moonmama]

Hi Lucie- I'm on my first clomid cycle and had really horrid muzzy headaches too - so I'm convinced its the clomid! Also one of the ladies here says it gets even worse with each cycle so dreading that!!

Thanks Britt - glad you would test too - the problem will come though when its time to test for real and I wont know if its a real pos or not! guess I'l have to wait til AF overdue!

hi ladies i think symptons are different for each person has my first month on clomid was horrible i had everything but i have just moved onto my 4th round an i have had no symptons since the first round the only thing that has been an ongoing thing is that i spot at least 5 days before af x x

Hi Ladies,

Just checking in for news of any BFP's. I'm getting excited for you all.

Sam I see you are from Doncaster? Can I be nosy and ask if you see the fs at Doncaster Royal Infirmary like me? x

 

[tinybutterfly]

i started clomid a few days ago, round 1... IUI in a good 10 days i suppose

i'm wondering something, i have to take clomid 100mg (2 pills of 50mg),
my gyn said i could take them spread over the day, one in the morning, one in the evening,
so i'm wondering now, does it work best that way? or can i take them both at once?
or doesn't it make a difference?
