Clomid symptoms

[jmc111]

Hello ladies!!! Brooklyn your chart does look great!!! I'm nervous about mine...I just starting charting and temping and it went down a bit saturday am and even more sunday (today) am....does anyone know if this means im out if it doesnt go back up tomorrow?? Or what the dip means if not implantation?

Hi JMC111, I am not a charting expert but it could be an implan. dip, stay positive, when is your AF due ? I think your chart is looking really good!

 

[jmc111]

Thanks Kiki!!! I appreciate you lookin!! Well Af would normally be due around tomorrow but this is my first cycle on clomid so not sure if it'll lengthen my luetal phase...I hope it does that at least but i'm not testing till 9/30, I will be 17DPO then I think!!! I should for sure have my visit from AF by then if im not prego!

Hi jmc111, your chart looks really good! the dip really could be implantation, especially since it happened 7dpo and your temps seem to be going up after the dip. There's a article/study on fertility friend about implantation dips where they talk about why they happen and how often they happen in pregnancy charts vs. non preg charts. I think they can occur on both, but slightly more on pregnancy charts. Here's a link to it:

fingers crossed for you!

Oh my gosh thanks so much Brooklyn!! That article is awesome...I have more hope now haha....Thanks for crossing for me...I've got everything crossed! Testing seems soooo far away though!

Your chart looks good as well!! What do the open circles mean? I need to still do all the lessons on FF so not sure if they're explained in there?

 

[brooklyn1]

thanks! the open circles are days when I didn't take my temp at the regular time- maybe 30 minutes before or after my usual 7:30 wake up.

 

[jmc111]

Ohhh ok gotcha....a fellow BnB'r gave me this website which is AWESOME for adjusting temps when you wake up earlier or later...have you seen this one??

Ladies Im just starting my first cycle of Clomid tomorrow, do you think I should take my temp as well........Im just worried I will get taken over with it all and become obsessive. I went through a stage like that a few months ago and it nearly drove me mad!!!!!

 

[jmc111]

Hi pasteljay....This was my first month on clomid and first month temping....I find it really helping me so far because im learning so much more and i'm able to see the trends and all of that...but it definitely does make you become more obsessed! I am taking clomid because i was not ovulating...I wish I had started temping months ago so that I could see the difference in charts and temps....my temps are much higher now so im hoping i o'd but just waiting to confirm from the doctor! So I would recommend temping but you will definitely be more obsessed i think....

Jmc111, your chart just looks great! A text book pregnancy chart so far! I really hope this first round has done it for you!

Are you having any symptoms?

 

[jmc111]

Really MillieMoo?!?! Thank you so much for looking! I have no idea what a pregnancy chart looks like so i've been just dying waiting...not so patiently haha...It's my first time charting too so i have no clue what to really expect!!! Well as for symptoms I have had whitish/runny CM since ovulation and my nipps and sides of my (o) (o)'s are pretty tender....the sides of them normally get sore before AF but not normally the nipps too from what I remember...otherwise just little twinges here and there in my lower abdomen but im convinced that they are normal and maybe even AF twinges??? I'm really trying to not ss too much as I was very dissapointed last month when I did that!

How about you Millie?! Your chart looks good too!

 

[MillieMoo]

Well i'm not holding out too much hope as my temps aren't that high so i'm waiting to see if it gets any higher tomorrow. If it goes back down again i would say i've had an anovulatory cycle.

I hope its not though so keep your fingers crossed for me for a high temp tomorrow.

 

[jmc111]

I definitely have everything crossed for ya MillieMoo!!!! FIngers, toes, and eyes!!!

Your chart is starting to look triphasic, jmc! OMG! Good luck, hun! Urchin got her the month we were PMing... maybe PMing me is lucky! That would be good news for you!

 

[jmc111]

Thank you so much Megg!!! I'm hoping you're right on PM'ing with you being lucky!!!! You have been such a help, I can't thank you enough!!! How are you doing?! I couldn't find you on anywhere yesterday hehe

 

[Kiki09]

ok, strange question, but since taking clomid I am losing weight?!?! I am slim generally, but do have a bit of a belly/muffin top when I have skinny jeans on but that has now gone.. I have not changed what I eat or upped my excercise levels so, could it be that taking clomid has made my body work and is taking off one of the side effects of pcos which is the weight round the middle bit? I work hard not to let the weight creep on but this is much easier lol anyone else noticed this?

 

[MillieMoo]

Kiki, i wish! I've actually put it on! I'm also on the slimmer side but now my tummy just can't stop growing!

I think its a good thing but i've never heard of that happening before.

 

[MillieMoo]

JMC, when are you going to test? I see your temps has gone down today but that doesn't mean its the end for you. Your chart still looks really good!!

 

[Kiki09]

Millie lol, Well, wont complain about that "side effect" then! How are you doing in the 2ww??

JMC, agree with Millie, your chart does look good still..

Thank you so much Megg!!! I'm hoping you're right on PM'ing with you being lucky!!!! You have been such a help, I can't thank you enough!!! How are you doing?! I couldn't find you on anywhere yesterday hehe

I know, I go MIA every now and then. Some night I don't get on until after midnight! But, I'll always be back. I also take long weekends to see my family sometimes. So, I am gone for 2-3 days every now and again. I'm good... finally get to start ing now that the probably won't try to ruin my sheets!
