Clomid round 3 anyone else?

[tundralife2]

hey ladies. so I wanted to say that I just got a call from the referal management here in regards to my referal off base. Well, that didn't happen. I could just pull my hair out!!!! I will say at least they are sending me to the GYN portion of the house and not having to see the family doctor. They will decide if they can treat me and if not, then they will be the ones to refer me to a fertility specialist. So disappointing since I am at the age that I don't have time to play around. I am like you ladies just thinking it won't happen because it is crazy and then there is that low LH levels. I don't even know what that means. I did have my TSH and prolactin done so we shall see what happens when those results come back. I asked to do my 21 day labs, the progesterone but that darned base doctor really thought I was speaking greek to him!! Damn it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn it!!!!!!!!!

GRRRRR yes, AF got me LOL

 

[123Deirdre]

Omg! Just got a positive digi!

 

[Noele0002]

Tundralife- Glad you got a referral to a specialist! How far away is the specialist from you since there is only one in Alaska? (that's crazy) I really do wish you the best!!!

ADR10- How many dpo are you? I've got my fingers crossed for you!

Nurse_Starr- Welcome Where are you at in your current cycle?

Oh and I got my positive Opk tonight on cd 17

 

[Noele0002]

123- Oh yay! Congrats So exciting! How many dpo are you?

 

[123Deirdre]

9 dpo! So early

 

[Nurse_Starr]

Hi! I'm currently on cd 9 waiting to O

 

[Nurse_Starr]

Congrats 123 Deirdre!!!

 

[star25]

123 - CONGRATULATIONS! Thats great news and so early, what round of clomid and mg were u on again ?

Tundralife - I hope you don't have to wait too long for answers , sorry I can't help with the LH but i'm sure there are girls on bnb who can be helpful for you

Noele - yay on the positive opk! Sending you lots of luck and hope the 2WW goes quick!

ADR and Cntrygrl - How are you both today?

Nurse - Welcome, hope you don't have too long to wait to ovulate and that it's third round lucky!

I'm on CD20 today, have a lot of white CM, had this last cycle so pretty sure I have ovulated, just the waiting game now, why does it have to drag so much!

[Noele0002]

Tundralife- Sorry I missed your last post about not getting the referral! Urgh that would be so frustrating but hopefully they will more knowledgeable than your family doctor. Also, I'm hoping that make a decision quickly (you should definitely express your concern about timing and you don't want to waste any time so maybe they will feel pressured and send you to a specialist faster). Again lots of luck to you hun!!!

123- Wow that is soooo early!! I'm curious too what round of Clomid you were on and how many mg?

Nurse- How long are your cycles normally? Do you have an idea of when you normally ovulate? Good luck to you

Star25- Thanks! I'm sure the TWW is going to drag on for me too... Lol I think it always does! I probably asked you but when is your AF due? I will keep my fingers crossed for you that the witch doesnt show *Babydust*

AFM- I am on CD 18 and got another positive Opk this morning first time I've had more than one positive Opk two days in a row. Also, not sure if this has anything to do with ovulation but I am extremely bloated today!! I think DH and I will bd again tonight but otherwise I know we've got the timing its just a matter of the swimmers finding the egg!! Hahaha my dh last night was chanting at my belly saying "swim little guys, swim!!" This was right after we bd'd. Lol I got a kick out of it. I am so anxious to just be in my TWW already but not sure whether I will ovulate today or tomorrow because I didn't get a positive Opk until 7pm last night and again this morning. I had my temp dip this on fertility friend which kind of matches up last cycle with my ovulation dip. So I am thinking tomorrow will be ovulation day.

Anyways, I am hoping all of you wonderful ladies are doing good and having a great week! I also want to thank all of you for supporting one another... This board is truely amazing and every morning I look forward to logging on here to chat!! It also makes me happy to see that 2 people so far on this thread have gotten their BFPs It's really nice to see other women struggling with the same situation get their BFPs... It gives me hope and optimism!!!

 

[cntrygrl]

Star-- Doing well ty. Had doctor's appt. today. How are you?

123-- Congratulaitons on your BFP!!!!

Tundra-- I hope they move things along quickly for you. Grrr @ not being able to go straight to the fertility specialist. Hopefully the GYN will be able to refer you after one visit.

Noele-- Yay for +OPK. Get lots of in.

Nurse-- Welcome

AFM-- Doctor's appointment went well today. I am to call as soon as AF arrives and set up day 14 follicle check, where I will get an HCG trigger shot and have IUI within 24 hours. So that is our plan for next month. Pretty much know I'm out cervix is coming down, firm, and feels kind of open. My insurance covers 6 IUI's hopefully I won't need that many.

 

[ADR10]

Good morning everyone

Star25 - Im doing ok today... still have some pains that make me feel like my AF is about to come... hopefully it doesnt and i get a positive result this time.

123Deirdre - CONGRATS!!!! So happy for you. Thats great news! Keep us updated on how everything is going. It really does bring hope for everyone here on the board

Noele - I hope your doing well. Im 10DPO so i have another 4 days to wait before i can test. I actually tried a test last night but the test ended up not working properly (the control window stayed blank). But if i go by what it says then it was a negative lol Im going to try to hold out for the next 4 days and test then. Iv been getting cramping for the past 3 days like my AF is about to come. The trouble with clomid is that it gives you symtoms of being pregnant... argh.

Round 1 50mg.
It worked. I had a really painful Ov and progesterone came back at 68.
Im really scared, I've read too many stories of people getting lucky first round and then losing the bean

 

[tundralife2]

Noele---you better get to bd'ing lots!! Can't wait to be in the TWW with you. Not that I'm there but we'll be there with you cheering you on and hoping this is your month!!

Star25-how are you these days? Any ideas if you will test or just wait it out?? FXD for you hunny!

cntrygrl- where are you in your cycle? That is awesome that your insurance will cover it. I am not sure if our military insurance covers the IUI but I know they wonn't cover IVY obviously. I am so excited for you because that all sounds like positive stuff. It makes me happy and wishing I had a doctor who had his butt in gear but for now I am stuck with the base doing something until I get a referal. We shall see. Oh, I can't wait to see how everything goes for you....

Hope everyone else is doing good today!

 

[cntrygrl]

Tundra-- I'm due for AF on the 31st. So I think 13-14dpo I have a 17day Luteal Phase.

 

[tundralife2]

Mine is usually around 17-18 days. I'm guessing that is normal. I never asked anyone before. I didn't know how to figure it out until I started reading. I added the date I ovulated until the day I started AF, is that right?

 

[Nurse_Starr]

I meant cd 8 lol I just want these days to zoooom but they are moving slow

Noele- my cycles are 31 days they used to be 28 but clomid changed that

cntrygrl- Thanks

star- Thanks and I hope not either I thought if I took clomid days 1-5 then I would O earlier I usually O cd 14

ADR10- I hope AF stays away!

 

[cupcake]

I am on my second round of clomid 75 mg as my lining was thin last iui, and this time it was also terrible 4.5 , so I think I wont even get to round 3, anyone else have lining issues? ( this time I triggered too with ovitrelle)

 

[cntrygrl]

Mine is usually around 17-18 days. I'm guessing that is normal. I never asked anyone before. I didn't know how to figure it out until I started reading. I added the date I ovulated until the day I started AF, is that right?

Yep that's right. I only realized it since being on clomid. I don't know why I didn't pick up on it before.

 

[cntrygrl]

Cupcake-- I haven't had any issues with my lining. I think there's something they can give you for that though.

 

[Noele0002]

Cntrygrl- Glad your Doctor appt went well and I am excited for you to move onto IUI but who knows maybe you won't need it and will get your bfp this cycle FX! Oh and thats awesome that your insurance covers up to 6 rounds of IUI. Jeez my insurance won't even cover a darn blood test!

ADR10- I totally know what you mean about Clomid giving you pregnancy symptoms! First cycle on Clomid I had spotting around 8dpo and thats never happened before so I was convinced that it was implantation spotting and that I was going to get a BFP but nope lol then last cycle on Clomid during my TWW I had loads and loads of creamy cm and thought that maybe that was a sign lol. Urgh so frustrated. Well lets pray that AF doesn't show up for you!! Lots of babydust to you!!

123- Don't stress! Just try to enjoy your good news (I know, easier said than done, right?!) Did you have any early pregnancy symptoms before you got a BFP?

Tundralife- Thank you! We have got a lot of bd'ing in so far. My original plan kind of went out the window but oh well. So are you not taking Clomid this cycle? Will you still be using OPKs? You should really give bbt charting a try. Its helpful! So when is your appt with the other doctor on base?

Nurse- My cycles are usually 30/31 days but since taking Clomid they are between 29-31 days. I know what you mean about time going slow. Seems like the faster we want the waiting to go by, the slower it goes... lol

cupcake- Welcome! Sorry I have no knowledge about lining or experienced that. But I think I've read somewhere that Fermara is better for lining issues (I could be wrong). What is your doctor recommending?
