October 2014...starting Clomid for the 1st time! Anyone else?

[MissLaroo]

I mean side effects not symptoms

 

[taurusmom05]

I hope mine doesn't make me crazy moody! I feel like I'm moody enough as it is! Lol let me know if you experience any symptoms!

I'm still waiting on af to arrive...day 31 here and I'm typically 32 days in cycle length. Can't wait to get this next cycle going!! My metformin is still giving me tummy troubles. Bleh.

Hope everyone is having a great day!!

Hi Ladies!

This is my 1st time taking clomid. I start tonight. Are any of you getting an IUI done as well?

Hi Piper, welcome!

I just had a clomid cycle w/iui. Everything went smoothly.

Is this your 1st iui?

 

[Piper183]

If we decide to proceed, this cycle will be the 2nd iui. The 1st one was done way too early. However, since some ladies conceived using clomid alone, I'm not sure which way to go.

Hiya took my last pill on Sunday and the side effects are still here! Feeling incredibly sick and extremely over emotional! Been none stop crying for days now! The smallest things can set me off
it is starting to get annoying now but I suppose the things we have to go through ayy? Xx

I'm on CD 19, took clomid CD 4-8. Still haven't ovulated

 

[Amigone]

Hi! This is my first clomid cycle too. A little scary to be playing with hormones (I've never even taking the birth control pill - unnecessary for my wife and I for obvious reasons) but getting through the anxiety. I'm naturally anxious anyways.

Everyone I know who was on clomid told me how awful it is. That I will be a weeping mess. That I will have mood swings and be mean to my wife. That I will have pain in my abdomen. This is day 2 of clomid (CD4 overall), and so far so good.

When did you start to feel side effects, if at all? Because I'm not cranky or mean, my brain tells me it isn't working.

So i had my cd10 scan this morning. We could see quite a few very small follies and one which is 8mm with another 1-2 not far behind. I was so overwhelmed that this is actually happening and I'm on the way to my already loved baby I sat in the car and cried for 5 mins.
Back in next Thursday for another scan. Fingers crossed were getting close to the 20mm mark!

The clomid this time has made me emotional. I'll get angry/grumpy/upset at the drop of a hat then 1 minute later like it never happened. I never had this last time, maybe due to a 20kg weightloss it might actually work this time!

Had my scan today and only two follicles at under 7mm. Got to wait another week for my next scan. If no progress we will be in talking to the specialist about going straight to 100mg without bringing on af.

Feeling quite deflated now...

 

[Buttercup77]

Took my first pill last night no real symptoms yet today. How's everyone else doing? What my friend told me who took clomid is that it will make you crazy moody.. Anyone experiencing that? Lol

Hi,
I did have side effects but it effects everyone differently. I had headaches, hot flashes, acne and sore boobs.

Good luck

So sorry Hun, but don't give up, hoping your follies grow

Good luck!

 

[taurusmom05]

Keeping the positive vibes coming! Hoping your follies grow so you are one step closer to your new beautiful little one. Please keep us posted, mrslake!

 

[taurusmom05]

How is everyone else? Klouise? Amigone? Drjo?

When is everyone testing this time around? It won't be until mid November for me! I'm currently on cd5 and just took my first clomid this evening! So excited and oh so nervous

 

[drjo718]

I'm on CD 22 and I don't think I ovulated. Although I had almost positive opks on the 14th and close to it on the 13th, and I only test once a day. Maybe I missed the surge? I had blood work done yesterday to see if I ovulated but I won't get results back til Monday probably.

 

[Piper183]

Hi Ladies!
I took my last clomid pill last night. Taking it at night seems best because I didn't experience any of the horrible side effects that I've read about. Now I wait to begin opks....

 

[taurusmom05]

Exciting, piper!!! good luck this cycle! I am currently debating if I'm going to use opk's or not after my last pill. We are going to try to dtd every other day until bfp or af shows! But I love seeing those positive opks!!!! baby dust is on its way to you!

 

[Amigone]

I think I'm crazy because of it. I feel like because I'm stressed about it that I wrecked it all. But I don't know if I'm overreacting because I'm crazy or if the clomid is contributing because I finished the clomid yesterday and today I'm just a mess.

Sorry you are feeling so stressed Amigone I'm sure you didn't wreck anything. If you can find time maybe go get yourself a massage or something else to help you relax. Best wishes and baby
to you!

Hi ladies question so I'm on cd 13 and I think I should O either tomorrow or Wednesday should we BD for today tom and wed or do every other day? I have heard every other day is better to build up but don't want to miss our window. Thoughts?
