Clomid symptoms

[Kiki09]

how exciting, all these testing dates.. FF told me to wait till the 9/9 which would be 18 days past OV, think its because this is my first time using it and it is not sure of my cycle etc. I usually have a 32 - 36 day cycle, unless clomid shortens it, so i would be 12dpo on the 2/9... will try and wait till then but I have found I have some internet cheapies 10miu tests in the drawer so... i just know that the chances of me waiting till then are soooo slim! but I am going away for a few days up north on Sunday morning, come back Wednesday... part of me cant wait to test, part of me is dreading it as then all my hopes could be dashed for another month..

I know the feeling! But as you've got something to distract you might be able to hold out.

Whaaa
Newest symptoms at dpo 11 (ff) dpo 13 (babymed):

slight backache
gassy
slight cramps

Here she comes!

Last night, I got myself convinced I was pregnant because I thought I had leucorrhea.
I made an appt with my doctor tomorrow just to make sure it is not an infection.
But since my temp dropped this a.m. and I'm having these other symptoms I'm thinking, is around the corner.

I don't know what I feel anymore. One minute I feel pregnant the next I feel like AF is coming.

I feel that it is too soon to test especially since I'm confused about my O date.

oops, sorry i posted twice i'm not sure how to delete.

Dont give up reallyready, the AF has not arrived yet! plus your temp is still above the cover line on FF.. I am new to temping but I am sure I read that this is a good sign??

I am the same re feelings of hope and then feelings of "its never going to happen", and I am only 4dpo!! Its normal for us to be on this emotional rollercoaster, but its is hard I agree..

Dont give up, not over till the witch shows her ugly self!

 

[reallyready]

Thanks, Kiki
Oh I guess you are right about cover line. I have to keep telling myself that all day at work so I can stay positive.

I have been obsessing over others preggo charts on babymed.com trying to see some connection to my chart.

also found a site where women have written out their symptoms prior to bfp's and have read Allllllll the stories now.

I'll be watching for your BFP at the end of this cycle. Just 10 more days, right?
Here's to hoping!

Hi all,
I know,this is such a rollercoaster ride! I'm going through the same ups and downs about my temperature, symptoms, and testing...one minute I've lost all hope (not just for the month, but in having a baby period), and the next I'm convinced I'm pregnant. It seems like it's never going to happen.

Reallyready, I've been doing the same obsessive searching on FF for pregnancy charts- trying to make some sense of what is going on with me. You helped me yesterday- and you were right, you never know what's going on until af actually comes. And there are lots of variations in temps day to day.

I think I'll test on friday if I can wait- I agree Kiki, it's hard to wait to test, but the thought of being let down also makes me not want to test...hmmm.

 

[reallyready]

Hey look at that Brooklyn1, your temp went back up this morning. Yay!
Thanks for your encouragement too. I know I'm being particularly emotional today. (Estrogen surging?)

I woke up this morning and my first thought was, "I'm pregnant". Maybe I need to take a step back and detach a bit from this process...I keep telling myself to accept my life and take pleasure in all the little parts of it that I do have.

It's really a test in patience and a mind game in holding it togetha'.

I can't tell you how grateful I am to have joined this site and started to exchange with you ladies. SEE! I'm soooo emotional right now. You all are helping me hold it together more than you know.

That is what we are all here for, we all support each other... lets hope we all get those BFP's this month and can journey on together!

 

[brooklyn1]

I feel the same way- I was hesitant to join a site, but I'm so glad I'm here- it does help to talk and be in this with you all.
I hear you reallyready about being emotional- I've been so moody for the last two days- tearing up at newspaper articles, feeling down...I do think it's hormonal. I'm definitely chalking it up the the clomid, but hormonal moodiness can really get to you even when you know it's that. Hang in there!

on clomid for not ovulating - it WORKED! i o'd on cd 21
Taking 50mg
this is my first cycle on it; started cycle on 7/22 - i have long cycles and am now on cd 33....
noticed symptoms almost immediately after i finished the pills. Massive hot flashed, trouble sleeping, cramping, headaches, irritable/weepy. After about cd 27 i started having pregnancy symptoms, like lots of cm, triphasic bbt, back pain, tender/swollen bbs, heartburn, etc.. I have heard those can all be side effects too. but i hope not!
Crossing my fingers for a BFP.

Anyone else have these kind of pregnancy-looking symptoms late in their cycle?

 

[Kiki09]

Hi gimmeabump, I am on dpo 5 and have some of the symptoms as you describe, keep telling myself that they are clomid symptoms and not to get my hopes up...

you should add your temp chart if you have one, we love to stalk them on here lol

 

[MillieMoo]

Hi Gimmeabump! I thought i was the only one suffering those symptoms! Thank god i'm not!

Well for the past couple of days i've had a dull ache in my womb area, back pain, headaches, bad indisgestion late in the afternoon and also feeling hungry all the time.

I haven't had sore bb though so i think that these are just all side effects from clomid and it looks like we've both got them so they might be! Oh well i'm going to still try to stay positive!

 

[Kiki09]

milliemoo, i cant help but feel very positive for you this month, with your temps and your symptoms I cannot see how that can all be down to clomid! f'xd crossed! roll on next week when you can test !!

Am having these kinds of symptoms at the end of my cycle also yet when took a HPT yesterday morning (yes, I cracked and took it) it was BFN. Serves me right for taking it early. Now I'll wait until tomorrow

Have definitely heard of and had some of these symptoms at the end of cycle on last two rounds of clomid, but not the creamy cm discharge. Went to dr. yesterday to check it out and make sure it wasn't yeast infection. Was not a /infection or any kind of infection she said. She also moved my O day a day back on my chart which puts me at 14 dpo today.

So still x'ing my fingers over here for me and everyone!
I keep telling myself that no matter what happens this cycle, the wait is almost over. I am realizing that especially the last week of the wait, I certainly do not handle it with the grace I wish I had!

Its hard this TWW I agree, though good that your dr knows her stuff when it comes to CM, fingers crossed you will get that BFP anyday now, when would you be expecting your AF??
I dont have any symptoms today at all, have creamy cm but that is it... I am now doubting I ovulated at all and that my temps on my chart which show ovulation are just false and the temp drop/rise is due to a bug or something...

waiting with grace, now that has to be impossible!

 

[brooklyn1]

Kiki- what's making you doubt that you ovulated? Just looked at your temps, and it's looking pretty biphasic (and possibly triphasic!) to me. I think it looks promising!
My temps on clomid were a little bit more extreme and consistent during both phases of my cycle, but not really different from when I wasn't taking clomid. I think I've read that a temp rise is a clear indicator of ovulation regardless of whether you are on clomid.

Not sure, think its just that I have not ovulated since I lost my angel in January and I am so scared to believe that on my first round of clomid I ovulate, i just wondered if my temps could be the way they are for some other reason! Lol I have no idea what biphasic or even triphasic means to be honest, new to temping, will have to go on FF and ask lol I so want to believe it is down to ovulation but dont want to get my hopes dashed. Does that make sense?

 

[MillieMoo]

Kiki hun, looking at your chart i would say there's no doubt about it that the temp rise is from Ovulation.

You had the watery discharge and then a constant rise in temperature. Try to stay positive. With Clomid its not like it helps you gradually, it will work full force the first time you use it so you don't even have to wait until it gets into your system so there's no reason that it wouldn't have worked!

As far as my symptoms go today i've just had cramping and it feels like someones scratching my nipples every now and again! oh and loads of CM! Apart from that though i feel pretty normal! I can't get my hopes up!
