clomid cycle #1

[robo123]

Hi eabwhab, I guess I'm just having a negative day. I'm afraid to get my hopes up. I have seen so many success stories from clomid too. I am so nauseated tonight. I guess only time will tell. I have hardly any cm, it stopped a day or 2 after ovulation. I'll keep you posted and hope you get you BFP. X

Hey robo123, hang in there. I am sending you some positive energy I know, I read a lot of positive clomid stories too and I am hopeful it will bring us our much wanted BFP. If not this month, very soon. I am sorry you are having a negative day. I hope you will feel better soon. I have been very very moody. I started the day that I wanted to cry, but right now I feel pretty positive I think hormones are playing tricks with me. Thank you for sharing your experience. how many DPO are you on?

Good luck to both of you ladies!
Clomid never gave me the symptoms both of you are reporting because I never ovulated on it that I know of. This is my second cycle of Femara (first with femara + menopur), and I know exactly when I ovulated - I've been having the exact same symptoms since. I'm only 4dpo today, but I have breast tenderness and sensitivity, nausea, bloating, and there is just a constant pressure in my uterine area. I feel a little discomfort from my left ovary area. I've been super tired as well the past 3 days.

Don't count yourself out yet, Robo! Also, Clomid made me a horrible, moody person. My husband walked on eggshells around me every month I took them.

Hang in there both of you! Fingers crossed!

Jennuuh, thank you so much for your kind words I have been feeling so moody. At times hopeful at times just thinking this is not the month. I am glad to hear that you have ovulated! I will keep my fingers crossed for you. keep us posted.

I will definitely keep you updated! This 2ww feels like its just dragging now since I officially know I (finally!) ovulated. I'm glad I found BnB! I'll keep looking back for updates from you ladies!

I might be 8DPO. I have had quite a bit of cramping and throbbing for a few days after ovulation. They are all gone now. I am feeling normal, with no symptoms really. I have had a lot of creamy/milky discharge which I think is due clomid. I have also been very moody, also a side effect. Other than that, my nipples are barely sore. One more week before I know. How is everybody else doing?

 

[Jennuuh]

I'll be testing a week from today - If nothing shows, I'll be waiting for AF to show, and if she doesn't, I'll test again! I'm still having progesterone symptoms - Sore bb's, sensitive as well, nausea after eating, absolutely horrible heartburn, and slight cramping. My left ovary is sore as well, which I googled, and it said it was probably due to the corpus luteum. I'll deal with it

Hi guys, can I join?
This will be my first cycle of clomid, and yes, I am excited. I am feeling so much more positive now.
DH is 33, I am 30, trying for our first since June 2012. MMC last April, and then another MC in June.
I'm not a 100% sure when AF started, Friday or Saturday, so I might just start this evening. 50mg twice a day.
Cycles are regular, progesterone is fine, DH SA is good. I'm just exhausted from trying and failing and loosing babies
We time perfectly, I temp and use OPK, I know exactly when I ovulate. It's just, ugh. I know clomid isn't magic but at least I know I'm doing something more.
It'll be nice to go through this with you guys! (sad we have to though ) Hopefully BFP for everyone!

So sorry about your miscarriages - I couldn't even imagine. I hope clomid works for you, and soon! Good luck, fingers crossed for you as well!

Definitely! Not to sound sinister, but I don't know how many more years I can take! I applaud anyone who never gives up, and continues to wait. I've seen people that are almost 20yrs in to TTC. I would definitely of moved on to other options by then! Its so taxing at times!

Hello Nina! Welcome Sorry to hear about your losses. I hope clomid will work for you, for us. I will keep my fingers crossed for you too. I am 8-9DPO. I have no symptoms apart from slightly sore nipples and being very moody. I hope my progesterone is where it is supposed to be. Keep us posted on how your cycle is going! I think it helps a lot being able to share our experience and get support form others in similar situations.

Hi ladies, so all my symptoms have disappeared. Getting a few cramps like AF is on her way. I'm away visiting friends so if AF doesn't arrive this week I will be testing Sunday as I will then be 2 days late. Hope we are all successful soon in getting our BFP's.
How is everyone doing? When will you all be testing? I think I am 11 DPO today x

Symptoms can go away! Don't count yourself out just yet - It's not over until AF shows! I'm 6dpo today. I'll be testing next Monday. Good luck still!

hey, I dont think that means necessarily you are out. I hope we will all get your BFP. It's good to be with friends, you can get distracted a bit. I am 9DPO I think. I feel like time is going by so slowly....

 

[Jennuuh]

I definitely know how you feel eabwhab! It feels like time is going sooo slow. It feels like its been at least two weeks since my ultrasound. Nope, just 6 days. =/

Hey Ladies, how are you doing? I got my progesterone level back: 26 something in US units. Last cycle (unmedicated) it was 8-9. THe nurse said the number is great and it means good ovulation. So I guess clomid did its job. I said to myself that no matter what happens this cycle, this is already a victory I still have 4-5 days before AF is due.

That's a great number! I'm so glad it's working!

Hey there,
I have been ttc since Jan 2013. After one ectopic (lost tube) one MC and 6 months of no luck I am on my first round of clomid to give my "working" side a better chance to ovulate. I took it CD5-9 and OPK says I should be ovulating soon. BTW the Dr. also said I have low progesterone and said clomid should help with that. It is the very first time I feel really hopeful again. That I finally have a real chance at getting pregnant. Anybody else in a similar boat? Good luck to us all

we started in jan 2013 as well, had no bfp's. i am just starting my second round of clomid 2 days ago. had a hsg last month wich showed i am all clear... i have 3 older children and my husband has none... his sa showed it was stellar but shouldnt be a problem.. so we dont know whats going on. i feel hopeful this cycle good luck to you!!!
