February 2013 Testers + clomid/ Femara

[Jenna_KA]

Lol!!!! You're only 7dpo and convinced its a AF cycle. You're so hilarious. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best though I suppose! (Or are you just being pessimistic )


SNOWFLAKES: Where are you? I want to know how you're feeling

Pessimistic lol!!! Half empty glass , half full right now lol!

You should just swallow the penny so it'll be closer to your little embryo :] Just a thought hahaha.


I've developed a pregnancy craving. I haven't had many up until now. My "cravings" have been more like weird smell cravings. For whatever reason I now LOVE the smell of vinegar and of seafood. It's so weird. Every recipe I make lately has vinegar so I can sit and smell it the whole time I'm making it. And every time we go to the store I stroll very very slowly by the seafood and stick my nose in it
ANYWHO, I've finally actually developed a crazy pregnancy craving. I cannot for the life of me get enough Mac and Cheese with A1 sauce. It's so weird, but I can't stop eating it! Nom nom nom nom nom.....

You should try it. :]



BIO: Did you make an appointment??!!

 

[Beautifullei2]

That's a thought lol jk!!

Now those are some pretty stinky smells haha. I once tried to put apple cider vinegar in my hair since I heard it was good for oily hair. Yeah it grossed me out & for 2 days my head smelt like vinegar

I do however love the smell of garlic powder & smell it like crazy hahaha.
Not sure if ill try that anytime soon lmao but its definately an interesting combination hahaha.



Afm I think I'm getting a cold or my allergies are playing me with me. I felt like poo all over agin today & came home to nap, needless to say it made it worse & I practicay had to drag myself to dd's cheer practice.

 

[Jenna_KA]

Uh oh I haaaate being sick. Luckily I haven't caught anything in over a year (knocking on wood) and that's a record for me. For my whole life haha and that's not an exaggeration. I get sick easily. Is it just a stuffy nose??

 

[Beautifullei2]

Stuffy nose, sore throat as if it has needles in it, headache, dizzy, I feel hot but no fever & my lovely cramps I get after o. Not to mention I just feel weak n exhausted 24/7. I drank 2 cups of strong coffee today & it did nothing to help me wake up or give me motivation for that matter lol

Hopefully tomorrow ill feel better. I really think this weather change blew in some crap & I caught a cold.

 

[Jenna_KA]

Have you taken a loot at your tonsils to rule out strep? I used to get it aaaalll the time. One time I got strep throat and had every symptom BUT a sore throat. That was weird. Well I hope you feel better soon Take some nyquil tonight and prop your head up real good. And drink some tea Me and OH just went to the store to get sleepy time tea. I'd totally share if you were within driving distance lol.

Good morning ladies

Jenna - I have an appointment! They were able to get me in surprisingly fast - they have me coming in for an initial consult on the 20th. It's kind of calming to have that booked. I'll continue to temp in the meantime (maybe OPK) in case I miraculously O. Both ovaries are still pinching/pulling, so there either churning up a follie or growing cysts (hopefully not the later). OPKs are so light now that they're almost blank, so maybe I almost surged CD17 but couldn't quite get there and now my body's resetting to try again? I'll keep you guys posted!

 

[Beautifullei2]

SLEEPY TIME TEA??? Hmmm now that just sounds relaxing What kind did you get? Tonight I finally have an eveing to do absolutely nothing so I plan on taking full advantage of getting me some rest.

lots & lots of your way!!! Super stoked they got you in so fast though

Beautifullei temp rise!! (see what I did there?). If I had that chart at 8DPO I would probably start POAS. Test time can't come soon enough!!!! Looking great! FX!!!!

Lol! Yeah so far on my prior temps this is the highest its been on 8dpo Trust me!!!! I am sooooo tempted to start POAS.... LOL. I had to hide the only one I have from myself this morning cause I wanted too

Im going to really try & hold out until wednesday


Did the specialist say exactly what direction they may go or are you going to discuss that when you go for your consult. I hope they can get things moving.

You're stronger than I am to wait until Wednesday!

It's just an initial consult. They told me to bring all of my medical records and you bet I'll be printing out all of my BBT charts. If I O by the appointment (CD26) then we'll have a game plan for next cycle if BFN. If I haven't O'd, I'm sure they'll put me on Provera to bring on AF.

I'm going to push to go straight to injectables. I can get pregnant, as shown by our m/c, and I can grow follicles, so I'm hoping they'll skip diagnostic CD3 testing and go right to treatment.

 

[Jenna_KA]

Bio: Weeeeee! I'm so glad they got you in so soon! Now you'll have everything in line and ready for your next cycle Do you get AF on anovulatory cycles? Can't wait to hear their plans for you

Lei: You should try get some sleepy time tea its so yummy. The kind I have has mint and chamomile. I also got a spice tea that tastes like chai but has no caffeine so I can drink it at night mmmmmm. I had OH make me a cup to drink in bed but I fell asleep while waiting for it to cool enough to drink I woke up to a cold full glass if tea next to my bed.. LOVING your chart right now Lei!! How many DPO will you be on Wednesday? I could do the math, but its early so I'm not lol. I'm tempted to make you (yes, I said MAKE you) poas, but I know its way too early. So yes do wait, even though its kiiiilllliiinnngg mmmeeees!!!


I have my monthly appointment today (2 weeks late, whoops!) So excited, I love going I've been getting A LOT of heart palpitations lately : /

Im trying to be!!! If I do get a bfp I want it to be a strong one ;-)


Oh that would be great. Are you going to shoot for injectable as in trigger?? Wahoo

 

[Biotechick829]

Lei - Very smart to wait for a strong BFP. Too many times I've had line eye from testing too early, but it's sooooo hard to wait!

I don't know yet exactly what they're called, but I think they directly inject you with FSH. From what I read, they monitor your follicle size and estrogen levels and once both of those are high they can give a trigger shot if you don't surge on your own. I don't have good vibes from the trigger shot, so I'd love to avoid it.

It's like Clomid and Femara act on your brain, which makes the hormones to make you O and injectables by-pass that and act directly on your ovaries.

 

[stevens2010]

I'm out, AF caught me today and I'm now moving on to round 5 of Clomid. FX to the rest of you ladies, hope September is a bumper month for you all!

Thanks hun, we're not doing anything different, we were given 6 rounds of Clomid and we're now on round 5 cd2-6 and hopefully we'll get a bfp this time. Not sure what happens if the Clomid doesn't bring a bfp.
