On first round of clomid...

[jm823]

I will be joining you guys soon as well temps dropping today and us due tomorrow. I really do not know how to remain strong. This constant disappointment is killing me inside I am emotionally tired of it all. Putting on my happy face is not working anymore. What is round 3 going to do differently that 1 and 2 did not? ugh sorry for the rant guys

I'm not sure if this will help or not but my dr told me statistically round 3 has the highest success rate that the first two. He always told me not to worry bout round 1 and 2 because he would expect round three to be the lucky time.

It does add some positive back into my life which I need to continue on!! Thank you

I know this title says first round of clomid but I was thinking we all could be TTC buddies. I am really struggling with round 2 failure, cried myself to sleep then started crying in Zara baby section yesterday (had to walk through after buying hubby a shirt) and then started crying in Clinton cards after seeing baby's first christmas.

Hubby told me that it definitely will happen in 2012, hopefully it will as I have 4 rounds of clomid left, then ovarian drilling and then ICSI then IVF, so hopefully before the year is out there will be some positive.

Good luck girls, hopefully lets get a few next cycle, emzy did good this cycle

TTC Clomid Buddies for 2012 sounds good to me!!

It's my first round, I have a scan today, it's CD12. I have no idea what it will show, if anything, my ClearBlue Monitor Fertility Sticks have been showing a High for the past 3 days, but not a Peak yet.

At £120 a scan, if I need another scan this month...eeeek!!

It's my birthday tomorrow, 46......trying not to think that I don't have much time left!!!

Loads of love and to you all. xxx

I'm still here, and just started round 2. Here's to more Clomid BFPs from this thread!!

Congrats emzy!!

Really good news at the FS yesterday, I had a scan and there is an 18mm follicle! My FS is really pleased, he said the Clomid is definitely working!!

I got a Peak today, my FS said to abstain from sex today and start again tomorrow, as the sperm will be better quality. It's my birthday today and OH has booked us 2 days off, to my surprise, and we are off somewhere soon!

Good luck to all you lovely ladies this month. xx

[norahbattie]

Good luck heavenly that sounds very promising indeed, hopefully the break will do you good and you will be nice and relaxed. Happy Birthday, it sounds to me you got the perfect present
Jm823 and Lisa it looks like we are all on track together, I am on my second day of clomid, so far so good no side effects as such, am having the worst AF cramps at the moment. Fingers crossed this cycle works for us all

 

[Lisa92881]

Yes, this round is it girls!!!

 

[Lisa92881]

Norah - What days are you taking it this cycle??

 

[norahbattie]

I am taking it from 2-6, 100 mg with 1500mg of metformin, more for weight loss rather than fertility, apparently it has been proven not to work in fertility. I have also bought a xbox and started your shape fitness evolved, extremely hard work and I hope to keep it up. I am not a great fan of the gym.

I have a follicular tracking scan booked for Wednesday 25th so let's just pray this little follicle grows and grows and grows, well until 23mm anyway

 

[jm823]

We will only be a few days apart from each other I am taking cd 3-7 which will be starting for me on thursday! This is it ladies it just has to be!!

Forgot to add- is increased appetite a clomid side effect...cause i am always hungry...haha

What everyones date?? or test or af due?
Feb 10th for me......

 

[norahbattie]

I will be expecting AF around the 11th/12th. I am going to try and forget about TTC this cycle and relax so no OPKs, no HPTs, no temp charting, just good old fashioned BD with my OH.

Fingers crossed ladies and lots of

 

[jm823]

That is the way to do it but, I just cannot throw my bbt away!

 

[Lisa92881]

I know, me too. I wish I could throw everything out the window, but just the thought of itgives me anxiety!

Chillbilly - If this cycle goes as planned, I hope to test on valentines day!

I had a lovely birthday break, OH took me to Dorset for a couple of days.

I got a Peak on CD13 & CD14, (17th & 18th Jan) I have had pains in my ovaries. We BD'd from CD7-CD12, abstained on CD13 and continued from CD14 onwards, and will OH goes to Scotland on Monday.

I know I am in the 2WW now but I don't want to think about testing, I really don't, until I have to. I have got 4 months to give Clomid a go before I have to look at IVF, so want to stay as relaxed as poss.

That's the plan anyway!!

How are you all? xx

 

[jm823]

4 months gives you plenty of time to catch the eggy FX'ed
