Can I join?! Your signature indicates that we probably have compatible senses of humor.

A little about me: I got pregnant in May on cycle 13 TTC on 50mg of Clomid (turns out I don't ovulate on my own). I had a MMC in July. Baby measured 8w1d, D&C on July 8th at 9w4d. It's now six months since the D&C. I've had three rounds of 50mg Clomid, and none of it has made me ovulate. I'm now on 100mg, and I might have ovulated yesterday, though I'm not getting my hopes up until after my progesterone blood test coming up on the 14th.

Hi ginger!! Welcome aboard our TTC train

I hope you ovulated. Good luck!! I'll put you down as waiting to test

Fx this is your cycle ginger!

May just NTNP to take the pressure off. But I do want to try the ConceiveEasy TTC kit! Sounds promising! Might as well try though because I want to pinpoint O with opks this month since I failed last month

What is that kit? Anything in it other than opk's?

NTNP would never work for me. My cycles are pretty consistent. I'd have a good idea when I was fertile regardless and it would bother me not to do it on a fertile day. Plus I'm anal about temping. I feel like I HAVE to know my temps in the morning

Can you get clomid at stores like WalMart or target? Is it something only a doctor can prescribe? I want to try it if its something that can be bought at a store..what about pressed? What does that do? Sorry for all of the questions lol haven't posted here for a while!

Edit: and congratulations to the ladies who got their bfps very exciting

I believe you do need a prescription.

Preseed is a lubricant that is friendly to sperm. I never used it so I don't know much else.

Ask all the questions your heart desires! That's what this group is for! Support and sharing information

 

[RainbowBaby13]

Thank you!!! just got done reading your other thread ,I hope you get your bfp

 

[confuzion]

Thank you hope the same for you

 

[GingerPanda]

You DO need a prescription from your doctor for Clomid. All it does is make your eggs mature, and is mostly used in women who don't ovulate on their own.

And I think it's not working for me again.

 

[LeahLou]

The TTC kit has vitamins and stuff in it. You get 2 months free to try it out!

Preseed acts like fertile cm and helps the swimmers get to their target easier I like it! Hasn't gotten me miraculously pregnant though

Vitex is an herb that acts like Clomid if you wanna try it out!

How are we doing ladies? Where is everyone in their cycles?

I'm 4 DPO (end of the day so nearly 5 DPO )

 

[LeahLou]

Congrats meg!

3dpo! Thinking I'll starting opks around 8 or 9 dpo. I got a nearly positive at cd10 last month but never knew if it was O or not. This is the last month of hard core trying before our month or 2 of avoiding a holiday baby! It's mostly DH's request. I just want a healthy baby.

Starting OPK's at 8 or 9 DPO? Do you mean CD8 or 9? Lol your post confused me a bit. I hope you get your BFP before having to avoid!

Hello. .. am on cd9. Am not around much at mo as trying to avoid becoming too obsessed with ttc also have started job hunting so trying to focus on that. Am still here lurking in background though. ..

Hi ladies!

Short update from my side!

Seems like I o'd this past week. Loads of creamy white cm changing in to ewcm and high, open soft cp. Today my cm is a bit more dry and cp is lower and firmer. So af would hopefully come in the next couple of days. Af usually comes about 7 - 10 days after O so we will see how it goes. means I can ttc again when DH gets home in Feb.

Finally some light at the end of the tunnel. On the 1st of Jan I had my last bleeding and on the 30th of Dec and the 4th of Jan I tested negative. On the 5th I started with loads of creamy cm and from Monday onward cp was high. Only became lower today. Seems like I will be back in the game soon then.

Ok, next question..........................

When should I start with vitamin D, Vitamin B Complex, Vitamin C and folic acid? I am currently still taking prenatal vitamins. Any other advise?

Please share all tips and ideas.

 

[GingerPanda]

Your prenatals should have that stuff in them. Taking too much of anything during pregnancy is not good. I believe elevated vitamin C levels have been linked to miscarriage. I only take my prenatals. That's it. No extras. Ask your doctor (and show them the vitamin contents of the prenatals you're on) before you add any other supplements.


Update from me? I should be 3DPO today by temp drop, but no crosshairs, no positive OPKs... I think the 100mg of Clomid didn't work. I'll see after my blood draw on the 14th I guess. (probably won't get results until the 15th).

If it didn't work, I'm going to ask if I can switch to Femara next month, or at least get a trigger shot with my 150mg of Clomid. I have a feeling eggs are maturing but not rupturing. Just my gut feeling.
