CLOMID ladies in the TWW

[Blu_Butterfly]

Hi ladies

Sorry AF got some of you lovely ladies.

Fx'd for those still waiting to test

Oh I don't know if I mentioned to you ladies but I have an app on my phone that I used to track so I wanted to share my info
I have a 29-30 day cycl CD 1 was march 1.
I took 50mg clomid cd5-9
I started taking opk test cd11. The neg test were the lightest lines EVER. I was horrified.
Got positive opk on cd15. Got neg opk on CD 16
Ovulated on cd16- the most painful ovulation EVER.
We dtd on cd 13, 14, 15, 16. Used preseed each time.
Got +hpt 10dpo.

This was my first cycle on clomid. I hope this info helps. Fingers crossed for more bfps!

Good news - DH's trip to the UK has been postponed So I will be starting my second round of 100mg Fertomid on Wednesday (cd5 - 9) I'm drinking 250ml pressed ruby grapefruit juice every day, starting today. The side effects of the last round of Fertomid were hectic - I'm hoping for an easier month this month

Good luck, mamfajane!

I had some cramps today, they weren't bad but I usually don't get bad ones. And I was sore down there, which always happens to me when I start AF. But i'm only 6dpo so it should be too early for AF... I don't know what to think!

I started clomid in March 2012 and my egg matured on 17/3 20mm. Doctor asked to baby dance on 18/3 and 19/3. Today is my 16 DPO. BFN. No sign of AF. Had cramping during 3dpo, 4dpo, 5dpo and then disappear... then cramping like period on 14 dpo and 15dpo, then disappear... tummy is bloated, nipples are sore... I am so confused with all these signs and yet BFN

@ Babysiew - I had lots of pregnancy symptoms with my first round of Clomid, everything you are describing and more. So try not to symptom spot while on Clomid as its impossible to tell the difference between side effects of the pill and pregnancy symptoms. You're quite a few days Post Ovulation already - I'd give it two more days then POAS if AF hasn't arrived. If still BFN - you need to go see your doctor.

@Stayhopeful - Good Luck Try not to symptom spot - Clomid side effects mimic alot of pregnancy symptoms and analysing them can drive you a little bit crazy (ask me - I did it first time round)

Yup I read that too. Does the Clomid symptoms still show after 14 DPO? I am planning to see my doctor tmr for a blood test. Wat do u think?

Im now on CD4 of my next cycle and I'm STILL experiencing Clomid side effects so yes, Clomid side effects still show after 14 DPO. I think a visit to your doctor is the right thing to do, maybe you'll get some answers. Good Luck

Thanks MamfaJane!

How are all my Clomid ladies?!?!!?
I am confused beyond words, here I am thinking I'm 14dpo but ordered some opk's and preg tests online. Yesterday an today took the opk's and both blazing +'s. I was like WTH, negative preg tests. I've been having creamy cm for like 2 weeks and I checked today for the 1000th time, it's still creamy but I can now stretch it like half an inch!!! Clomid is gearing me up for the third try to ovulate this month? On CD 34 I think?

When i got my first bfp I took a pregnancy test and OPK the same day, my pregnancy test was negative but my OPK was the darkest positive I ever got. The next day I got my bfp pregnancy test. I think there's some similarity between lh and hcg that can cause that.

 

[babysiew]

just to update, my blood test negative and coincidentally my AF comes today

 

[Hope1409]

I guess all of our "aunts" decided to fly in on the same day, lol. We should ship them off to a nine month vacay and let us get to our bfp's!!!

 

[babysiew]

LOL!!! I love that idea!

I took a frer this morning, , but I knew it was kind early (I'm 9-10dpo). I'm going to the doctor this morning about my ankle, so I was hoping to know something in case they need to do X-rays. I did check my cm this morning, it had been a few days, and it was kinda brownish. I'm really hoping that's a good sign... Maybe implantation?????

10 dpo is still early so don't lose hope just yet!

Last night was horrible for me. I was throwing up and had diareah then chills. Have you guys ever had this....is it a clomid thing, an ectopic, a cyst, or jus simple upset stomach? My right side has a dull ache on and off and I am on day three of af so I don't know if I should call my doc. I start my first pill of clomid again tonight.

Trying not to lose hope or go crazy! I'll test again on Mon or Tues.

Sorry to hear you're feeling so awful! I don't have a lot of experience so I have no idea what could have caused it. Did you have a scan after o? My corpus luteum was really large after the Clomid and my doctor was a little concerned it might burst, which he said would be really uncomfortable. Maybe something like that happened? I would call your doctor, if you're still throwing up it wounds make sense to take the Clomid because not all of it would stay in your system. It's also flu season, so it could just be unrelated and bad timing...

 

[Hope1409]

Yeah I'm gona call just for peace of mind...I'm sure my doc office hates me by now, lol. I freak out over everything. So far no throwing up this morning, just that dull ache on the side. I had no scans or anything after clomid, just day21 labs.

 

[StayHopeful]

Good luck, keep us posted!

Big hugs to all those in the clomid two week wait.

I have been watching this thread avidly although not said very much , clomid can really take it out of you so sending extra baby dust to all those startng a new clomid cycle.

I got a very faint line on a test this evening but not getting too excited just in case its an evap as Im only 8dpo. I hope it is my BFP not just because I have been waiting so long but I really really dont want to take clomid again either!
