CLOMID ladies in the TWW

[lorojovanos]

UPDATE* CD 42 it looks like I ovulated! Today, I got solid crosshairs so I'm 3 dpo. After speaking to the FS, she advised me to not use OPK's because with PCOS they are quite unreliable. So I took out all of my opk results on FF the other day.
I've never read of anyone ovulating quite that late on Clomid, but we will see what the next 2 weeks or so will bring!

Hi stork watcher! I was a bit naughty and was testing really early. I had a very faint line on an internet strip at 8dpo, a 'not pregnant' on a digi at 10dpo and a lovely "Pregnant 1-2 weeks on a digi at 11dpo".

I am having some bleeding at the moment so going to have my bloods checked Good luck to all the Clomid Ladies in two weeks wait I felt really supported knowing there were other going through the same things.

Baby Dust To You all!

Fx and saying a prayer for you, Meadowlark! Keep us posted!

 

[StorkWatcher]

GL, Meadowlark!
Sending good thoughts to you & your poppyseed!

Oh my dear lorojovanos!
Ovulating cd42... That must take a lot of patience!
Fx & hoping you caught that stubborn eggy!

Hey my TWW'ers,
I hope everyone has a great weekend!
I don't think anyone's testing until next wk, right?
(I don't wanna miss it! I get so excited to see a BFP-- even when it's not mine!)
But I'm really hoping to see a bumper crop of Clomid BFP's in this thread!

To all the ladies who got their clomid BFP's. How many days after ovulation did your symptoms start? I am wondering because i took 50mg of clomid cd3-7 (our first month), and starting yesterday 5dpo I got very bloated and extremely gassy so much so that the pressure kept me up half the night. These symptoms have continued today along with the sides of my boobs aching this morning, and have increasingly gotten sore to the touch. Oh yeah and I've had creamy cm since ov day.

I am wondering if this could be the clomid talking or early preg. symptoms?
Oh yeah I should also mention that I have had full to partial ferning (depending on when in the time of day i test) on a saliva scope since 2dpo.

 

[Meadowlark]

Mine started aroun 8dpo. I didnt have any CM and still dont, Im like the sahara! I had sore breasts, was very gassy but the big giveaway was consipation

 

[StorkWatcher]

I came to check in for some ers & BFP's!

How's everyone doing?


@MamfaJane--I lost 12 pounds just by shedding tears yesterday!
I cried reading a stupid magazine @Dr's office!
I just couldn't control it.

@snuggles-- I wish I could answer. This is only my 1st cycle though.



GL for those waiting to test or ov!

Only update with me is that I got my smiley on my opk this morning. Luckily dh was home so we dtd right away, lol. This might be tmi, but I find that I orgasm easier around ovulation time....does anyone else have that? Lol. I have read online that women are more "aroused" around o time but it's just so odd cuz I never paid attention until recently. Anyhow, cd15 for me so I think I will o in the next two days since I usually do about two days after my pos opk. And so we wait....again!

Update: I think AF got me this morning, but to be honest it's a bit odd. I started spotting yesterday at 10dpo and thought for sure that AF was on her way. And sure enough this morning it was confirmed, but my flow only lasted a few hours so now I am confused.
AF is here I know it, I'm just wondering why it was so short and if it's my body or the clomid causing body confusion??? I'm just gonna wait out 2 days and hopefully my flow will increase so I can start my 2nd round at 100mg this time.
Think Happy Thoughts!!!

This is my 3rd round on clomid but this is the 1st time my boobs tingle im so lost im nervous im not sure if its a mind thing but this time i really feel like my body doing something yesterday i felt like a heartbeat pain on my side for about 5 mind then it stoped all this is new i to a test today yesterday an the day b4 nothing ...... can it be just the clomid doing this ??

 

[StayHopeful]

Finished my 2nd Clomid round, I'm on CD9 and waiting to o. I'll start opks tonight, I had a little ewcm this morning. This may be tmi, but I have a hard time sometimes telling the difference between cm and "leftovers" after we've dtd the night before, especially when we use preseed.

Yaay for round 2 being done!!! Let's hope this cycle was the one for us! I got my smiley face this morning so clomid moved up my o day by 1 day i think. Next step is to call my gyno for cd21 blood work to see what my numbers are this month. There is way too much waiting in this ttc business. Are we ever going to be able to enjoy it???

Update - Hey Ladies, I took my second round of Clomid 100mg Day 5-9 this month. I'm currently on 4DPO and have way less symptoms that during the last round. I also drank 250ml Ruby Grapefruit juice from CD1 till ovulation and this seriously increased my CM Yay! I O'd on CD16 this month (last month was CD17) I was on holiday, so couldn't have scans but I definitely felt myself ovulate, cramps from CD13-CD16 then no cramps on CD17. We weren't able to BD as much as I'd like but managed to BD on CD13 and CD16 *FX* I'm trying really hard not to symptom spot this month as I for really disappointed last month, but I have to admit I've had barely any side effects this month (apart from the ovulation cramping) I'm still burping, boobs are a different kind of sore (only under my armpits) I've been cramping on and off on my right side for the past 2 days and my skin has broken out but I'm taking these all as side effects not symptoms. I'll poas when I'm 12 dpo this time, not any sooner. I'm glad to hear about all the BFP's so far - lets hope we see more of them soon.

I'm testing tomorrow girls. Not feeling all that hopeful as my Progesterone Test on 7dpo came back as too low even with the Clomid and Prometrium. I'm guessing they are going to have raise my doses next cycle. But was a bit bummer about that and I have zero symptoms so pretty sure I'm out! So I see a Clomid cycle #2 in my near future!!

Don't give up yet...do you know what your levels were? I have read anything over 15 medicated is indication of ovulation. So if you had at least that, you would be ok. Ask your doc for your level if you can.

I finished round two of clomid last week. First month my prog was 19 from a 5.1 so I was happy and so was doc, but no bfp. I need to go again next week for day 21 bloodwork so I can see what round two did for me.

Thanks Hope. My OBGYN said that he likes to see over 15 on a medicated cycle as well. I got a 13.4 - so just a touch under but still I feel that because I took 50mg of Clomid AND I am taking 200mg of Prometrium each night that my Progesterone should be muchhhhh higher. So I guess I will have to see what he says next week.

I agree, I feel like my life revolves around peeing on sticks... Good luck with your bloodwork next week! I'm still waiting to o.

Day 28 progesterone came back at 158 I'm not sure what this means. This is my fourth cycle on clomid 100mg the last three cycles my progesterone levels were 4.1, 4.1, 10.4. So I'm a little worried as to what's going on? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks x

 

[snowflakes120]

Faith - Sounds like you OV'd more than 1 egg.

 

[Faithlovehope]

Thanks for the reply hopefully this is my month! Hope you get your bfp soon! x
