May 2010 Clomid Round 2 Buddies

[ttcbaby117]

isi, make sure you get some bding tonight....you should be okay with that.

 

[lola13]

Sarlar - Very exciting for you to be ovulating! You might need to keep testing a few more days, but don't stop. I didn't ovulate until CD18 last time.

Isi - You still have tonight. If you're reading this, step away from the computer or go find your husband.

I have been pretty emotional since AF came on. It's a toxic cocktail of anger, frustration, and desperation. It's mostly anger. I am so tired of people having multiple kids with no problem when I've been working my ass off for one. Bitter, bitter, bitter.

I let the clinic know I'll be doing IUI this time. It may not be romantic, but maybe it'll work.

Lola... I can understand ur anger n I always go this everymonth when the witch shows up... I know we r not greedy by asking for one healthy baby n that too putting lots of efforts n prayers everytime.. But sometimes I feel life is so unfair coz few of my relatives n friends claim to have accidental pregnancy...oohhh... But hang in there chick...u will be holding one soon in ur arms... Am glad that u r trying IUI with clomid this time... Shall pray for u dear..

OMG girls so sorry i havent been on for a few days, my internet connection went and my mobile's screen broke grrr what a week ive had.

Eny way i hope you are all well.
My AF came 3 days late which is quite normal when im on clomid so no BFP for me.
Ive just been to my doctors and he has referred me to the IVF speacialist the reason being was because speacialist wanted me to try for 9 months to see if it happened and then if it dident then i had to be refered back to start the IVF proccess.
My doctor is lovely and has given me some hope he says i have been very unlucky but he reckons its taken this long because my dh sperm morphology is quite low.

Lola-so sorry af came i hope you get your BFP soon. are you continueing taking clomid?

mrsja- my DP morphology is 7% which i think is half the normal range.

How are all you girls doing?

i will definatly be coming on here to see how you are all doing but i wont be taking clomid enymore.
Im also going to try taking preesed as thats one of the things i have not done yet.
Good luck girls.x

 

[Isi Buttercup]

Thanks so much ladies.

The good news is that DH doesn't have to travel anymore. The bad news is that he is continuing with his attitude of not wanting to BD during o. He hates "non-spontaneous" BD and always knows when my seduction is for that purpose. He wants kids but believes it will come naturally, without us having to time it. So, here I am, ovulating.... but all for nothing. I am so mad and upset and have pretty much just given up. I think I will be taking a long ttc break.

Also, I started spotting this morning. I have never spotted before o, and really have no clue what it could possibly mean....

Hope everyone else is doing great today.

 

[ttcbaby117]

fxed for lola and lady blush....g/l with the IVF....i really hope this works for you two.

 

[caz & bob]

faith i hope so hunnie xxxxx

 

[sarlar]

lola i understand the bitterness. actually my dh has had a bit of that the last couple weeks. it is a hard and frustrating cycle. keep you head up its gonna happen!!

lady sorry to hear about the bfn. hopefully a new plan will work out best for you!

ISi-sorry to hear about the dh. i agree the scheduled bding is super hard and most men do not understand or enjoy it!! makes it hard...maybe try to seduce hiim without telling him you are oing??

afm- the dryness has set in attempted bd last night but so dry it didnt even work!! barely got it in this morning, but didnt seem that successful cause so dry cm!! i am taking tussin 3x daily. i am going to the store this morning to get primrose and grapefruit juice. i also think i need presseed asap!! i sure hope i figure this out in time for me to o!!

 

[Isi Buttercup]

Thanks Sarlar. I hope I'm in the mood to go the "seduction" route tonight. O'ing already (I think...because of the spotting), so not sure what good BD'ing tonight would be.....

Definitely get some Preseed love! I thought I'd never have need for it, but after a few dry days last time, I went to get me a tub immediately. And it does make a difference. Good luck babes .

 

[lola13]

Sarlar, I'm sure you can find preseed. I think I've seen it at walgreens. You might pay more than online, but you're in a crunch.

I'm thinking about adjusting my clomid days. The doctor has me on 5-9. I'm thinking about starting it a day earlier. Do you think it's risky? I've read most of the big multiples - i.e., 4+ babies, come from clomid + IUI. I should probably follow doctor's advice, but just wonder if I should change things up.

 

[ttcbaby117]

sarlar - the robitussin only liquifies your current cm..if you have none to liquify then it wont help....get some preseed to help you through this cycle, and if you need to next month start on green tea and grapefruit juice.

Lola - I thought about doing that too as I am on 5-9 but from what I understand is if that you need a more quality egg you should be doing clomidd on cd 5-9. If you are looking for more quantity of eggs then you take it earlier...I guess it all depends on what you are looking to accomplish...besides the bfp of course!!!!!

 

[ttcbaby117]

oh and sarlar....try to increase your water intake.

 

[sarlar]

lola- not sure about switching the days- i know if you do 2-6 it makes a big difference but dont know if just one day would make that much of a difference. have you asked your doctor about it and seen what he thought??

ttc- thanks for the advice. walgreens didnt have preseed but i may order it online and pay the extra money to ship it quickly. i started on grapfruit juice today and have been trying to drink lots of water. hopefully it works!! i have a few days till o so hopefully i can get into shape in time!

 

[ttcbaby117]

ok good...well keep up on the robitussin anyway...beter to be safe than sorry. also if you can stand the decaf green tea...do a couple cups a day.

 

[sarlar]

will definately!! thanks ttc

 

[PalmerWife]

hi everyone!

im currently on CD 20. I believe i OV on cd 16-17. I have had cramping for two days though, a very instense pressure cramping. Could something be wrong??

 

[ttcbaby117]

palmer - I am always a bit more crampy on clomid than not...if it is getting unbearable I would call your dr. ...maybe it is implantation.

Thank u for responding. my first clomid cycle was soooo different than this one. its all a little nerve racking! i have to give blood tomorrow for progesterone testing. I think the worst part of all of this is yes im finally ovulating, but i still cant tell when....so we are dtd every other day. DH has no problem with it, but im exhausted! Ive done OV kits, but i cant get accurate readings.

i didnt think about implantation...i assumed it was way too early for that ????

 

[sarlar]

where is everyone?? hope all are doing well! managed to bd today with no problems with cm!! yay!! having lotsa abdominal cramps but still no positive opks. hmmm. hopefully i get one in the next week!!

 

[lola13]

Hi Girls,
I start my 3rd round of clomid tomorrow. I decided to stick to the doctor's orders of CD5-9.

Sarlar - did you get the preseed? Keep up with the BD, you should be getting close. Any side effects?

Palmer - I was crampy my first time on clomid, but nothing at all on the second try. I guess it's different each time.

Hope everyone's well.
