First Clomid Cycle Buddy?

[Bluebell321]

Thanks for the advice on side affects everyone.

Well arrived a few days early for me, which I don't mind at all this time! I can start my Clomid tomorrow as I have to take it days 2 - 6. (Although I won't match my ticker as it's counting today as day zero, when I thought it should be day 1 )

Also started taking Vitamin B6 as I read that can help as well. Does anyone else take this or seen any improvements from taking it?

morning ladies
Blue bell thts good ur witch is here and now u can start the clomid path lol, im also on cycle days 2 - 6, but i have pcos, wht reasons are u taking clomid for? With my last cycle i ovulated on cd 14 and had 3 beautys whereas i never ever had 1 before the clomid so heres hoping it will have the same effect for u.... are u booked in for follicle tracking at all?
My Period has still NOT arrived and im too scared to do a pregnancy test as i dont want that hope to go away just yet, im guna wait untill it comes and if not by the end of next week im defo guna do one then, im now officially late, has anyone else been late on their period before but it still arrived and my follicle tracking definatly confirmed on cd12 that i would ovulate in the next 36/48 hrs which would give cd13.5 or cd14... just interested cos it shouldnt be late should it, aaarghhhh lol, im so nervous xxxxx

Sounds like the Clomid worked well for you then. Fingers crossed for a

I was a bit surprised about being put on Clomid. I do ovulate, but I get a lot of spotting before AF, sometimes upto a week, so the Doc said I may not have sufficient progesterone levels. She wanted to try me on Clomid to see if it would kick start my hormones into action. I'm booked in to have 21 day bloods in May, but that's the only testing they're going to do at the moment. Hope it will do the trick for me.

aw sorry af got you hun fx for next month xx xx

 

[lola13]

Chez - Your luteal phase might be a little bit longer on clomid. If AF is to arrive (& I'm not saying she is!) she might be a few days later than you'd normally expect. This could throw off our calculations.

Blue - I ovulate on my own, too, so I am somewhat skeptical about clomid working for me, too. But, given that it sounds like your LP is short, this could definitely help! Isn't it exciting to start those first pills? You can update your ticker & then update in BNB if the day off is going to bug you.

I have been so exhausted since Friday, which was 6DPO. I don't know if it's the clomid induced insomnia or an early symptom. I stalked threads with early pg symptoms to get myself excited about it yesterday. Anyone else tired all day & ready for bed at 8?

its not over hun till af show her face fx xx xx

 

[daisii]

hi folks!

I'm having a very negative day today, still no real symtoms, feeling like it is not gonna happen for me this time. I realise this is stupid as i am only7 or 8 dpo but I am just feeling a bit poo today! I know we have all been there before and that you all understand but being able to write about feeling rubbish to you all helps!!! You'd think we would all be used to bouts of feeling this way by now wouldn't you!?!

hope everyone else is doing well
x

 

[caz & bob]

fx for you hun its not over yet till af shows up xx xx

 

[dizzikel]

Hi girls,

Sorry for this post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well what can I say.... I am just gutted! Think AF is going to start full flow any minute. I have had some browish cm today and a small amount of blood so think I am well and truly out this month. (.)(.) not as sore and I just have stomach cramps...different from before! Damn evil clomid!

So as well as having AF arrive also got ofsted arriving on Wed.

I just wanted to say thank you so much for your support this month...it is lovely to have people in the same position. I have found this thread inspirational so thank you all so much

On to my next cycle then... I will let you know what she arrives properly but am 95% sure I am out this cycle.

Kel xx

 

[caz & bob]

fx hun af dosent show hun xx xx

 

[daisii]

Aww kel thats just horrid!!! and to have ofsted as well, totally rubbish. best of luck with the ofsted (I hate it when they do my school!!!), I'll be thinking of you. And you never know, it might just be a bit of spotting.

 

[chezneyboo]

awww kel, wish i was in ur boat one way or another, im late and no sign of the witch arriving, im ever so tired, started feeling sick and i cant even touch or move my boobs without them hurting, ive not tested since 12dpo when i got a neg, im too scared to test again now so just guna leave it a little longer...... wht will be will be.

Kel they say clomid has higher success rates after the first 3 cycles so dont be disheartened they also say 80 per cent of women tht ovulated on clomid will then go on to pregnancy in the 4 to 6 months of cycles, so ur defo not out yet, just getting ur body ready xxxxx

 

[dizzikel]

Thanks girls! Trying to stay positive

Chez...still no af is great! You know you had 3 follies so you are in with a fantastic chance....if I were you I would test again in the morning.

 

[lola13]

Kel! Sorry you might be out. IF we have to move onto clomid round 2, I would love to keep this group together. Anyone have a clever name for a thread?

Daisii, yes, we've all been around this block a few times, so we know even though it's irrational to think you're out already, sometimes we all do. There's absolutely hope for this cycle, so hang in there another week.

Chez, in your shoes I would also be testing again tomorrow. I don't think I'd be able to resist.

I'm off to take a quick nap before heading out to see Craig Ferguson live. Love him!

 

[daisii]

Chez - good luck testing, I would have so cracked by now!,
Lola- thanks for the support! I know I am going crazy!!!!

 

[chezneyboo]

[chezneyboo]

Morning ladies!

Firstly Kel, so sorry to hear about that damn honey. You have been a great buddy during this clomid cycle. I hope we see you here again next month on Lola's new thread. I am expecting the witch to show in a couple of days, so I'm pretty sure I'll be here with you

Lola YES, let's stick together! How about Clomid Ladies: The Next Chapter? I don't know, somebody else is probably way more creative than me! LOL! I know what you mean about being disheartened by the sore bb's. I felt exactly the same when mine started to hurt last week. Such a classic symptom for me. But you know, that symptom can still go either way, so fingers crossed eh?

Chez, you must be on the edge of your seat you poor thing! Jeez, I hope you make it Thursday and get our first BFP! No matter if not though - as I said to Kel, we'll see you in the thread next month if that's the case.

Daisi, glad to hear you're now in the 1WW instead of the 2WW, lol! Every little bit helps. Anything new going on?

Bluebell welcome, and good luck with starting your first cycle

TTC, I hope you get a nice fat + OPK soon!

Sarlar, hope the bleeding has eased off and that you're having a nice, chilled out weekend.

Babydust and happy Sunday to you all!

PS - Yes, that is an emoticon of someone doing laundry.
I just wanted to put that there because I think it is hilarious and you don't see that emoticon enough in my opinion! ha ha ha....

 

[sarlar]

Hey ladies! I am doing good. Still spotting a bit which makes me a little nervous but who knows. It has been 4 days since the hsg so hopefully it stops soon. I have my 21 day labs next week-although no clomid this month yet so nothing probaby happened!! Love keeping up with all you ladies though till I start the clomid cycle in may. I really love the idea of keepign this thread going!! How bout CLomid Clan?? Just an idea.... have a great week ladies. I am dying for us to get our first BFP this week And i have to admit-just thinking of starting the clomid is totally renewing my baby fever I cant lie....me and my dh bought a baby name book this weekend!! It keeps our minds on the positive anyways!!

Chez-I am super excited for you i have a great feeling about your bfp coming this week Hopefully that 4 lbs you gained is the beginning of baby weight!!!

Kel-Sorrry to hear about the af. keeping my fingers crossed it will just be quick spotting.

bluebell-welcome to the thread. hopefully clomid works great for you!!

Lola- onto the waiting time...stay positive!!

Daisi-keep haning in there. 1 week down, 1 to go. try to stay relaxed and positive!!

TTC, CAZ: hopefully this round will be the one.

Mrsja-why are you feeling like af is coming?? hopefully she never shows her ugly face!!

 

[daisii]

Chez I can't believe you are being so good and have not tested yet!!!! I would have cracked ages and ages ago!!!! Good luck for thursday!.

Sarlar- good luck, hope the spotting stops for you soon.

Stay positive everyone, we must get our first BFP soon. This thread must keep going! I love it! how about "clomid capers continued...." hmmm not tremendously creative, will give it some thought today!!!!

I am feeling a bit better today, though I have no real symptoms still!!! A little bit of cramping but that is not unusual for me. If I make it unitl fri or sat (12/13dpo) it will be the longest luteal phase I've ever had! some months have been as short as 7/8 days!!! now 8/9dpo so here's hoping!

Stay positive everyone.
