Hi ladies I wrote on this post earlier, I had a scan on thurs & had 2 follicles 1 woz 25m & the other is 16, I went 2day & the biggest 1 has popped so I've ovulated, but just 2 let u know I took opk everyday since thurs & they said I didn't ovulate but I have, the fs told me not 2 use them they just have every other day, which is wot we've done so fingers crossed!x

 

[LesleyL]

babyhope-that gives me some hope because i still haven't had a positive. the lines aren't even getting darker. what cd do you think u o'd???? that is wonderful news. i think if this month is out, i will not use the opks in july.

 

[LesleyL]

just peed ok an opk for fun. up until right now i didn't have any color on the test line----its almost same as the control not quite yet though. hope it'll turn darker tomorrow!!! and if it gets lighter like it was, i think it would be safe to say i surged today.

 

[yazzy]

Woo hoo lesley...hope this is it for you!!

Lolo - we're on the same day of our cycles...what mg of clomid are you taking? I'm taking 100mg cd2-6 so I start today...will take it when I finish work though.

Good luck to all the ladies in the tww!

Hey gals!

Anyone else trying for #2?

I've always thought that since #1 came as a surprise, I wouldn't have any problems with getting preg another time. It turned out I was wrong. The LO is 1 1/2 yrs old, and I got my period like in early April, second one end of May, which makes my cycle like 50 days long.

I kind of felt that I needed my homone levels getting checked, so I went to a fertiltiy treatment center. Got blood drawn a million times, and now the doc told me that I don't seem to ovulate. The LO obviously was a result of total luck....

Anyway, I just started clomid and for some reason I feel so weird, planning to get pregnant. Don't get me wrong, I went to that treatment center in the first place, I really wanted to get pregnant...

...but now, all the question come along, like: Will the LO be old enough to become a "big sister"? She'll start day care in August, and I seriously wonder if I will be able cope (it's probably harder for the mommy than it is for the LO... yes, I admit that!). But will I be able to cope when pregnant as well? People told me starting day care would be very hard for the moms, emotionally seen.

Then I graduate at the end of the year. Not easy to explain, I basically have to take exams. Can you do that when you are pregnant? All these questions go through my mind, all of a sudden - why didn't I think of these before I started trying actively for #2?

And at the same, I don't want to wait. I want my family complete, like mom, dad, 2 kids. Don't even care if boy or girl as I've always wanted a girl and already have one. I feel kind of bad, going for my dream of having a family, when rationally seen it would be better to wait until I'm done with the exams.... haaah... the confusion.

Anyone feeling similar?

Who else is in their TWW?

I am... I'm currently 12DPO but I am pretty sure af will get me tomorrow. I have had 2 BFN's already so I doubt very much I am pregnant...

 

[AprilShowers1]

I think the witch is coming. I'm having off and on cramping and very light spotting. I took clomid days 5-9 this cycle. Has anyone changed the days they took their clomid without consulting their doc first?

 

[emirc]

Hi ladies! This is my first month on clomid. I ovulate naturally. I have had 2 mcs, my dr gave me clomid 50mg and crinone gel. i finished my clomid on monday cd 9 and it is now cd 11 i got my + opk, i have seen ppl say you can get a false pos so soon after last pill.. but this is usually when i get my positive so i figured it was true.. any opinions? does that sound right? and anyone use the crinone? i am very nervous about that!

 

[LesleyL]

hi ladies!!!! so i was at work today....and all morning i had a dull ache behind my left pubic bone. late morning, i got really bad cramping all throughout my lower abd that lasted for about an hour. that stopped, then when i got up from sitting or stood too quick, the left side got a jabbing pain where the ache was earlier. i think i ovulated today i didn't get a test line quite as dark as the control line on my opk yesterday, but i took 2 and they were pretty dark. just took another, and the test line is hardly there. think i did it i'm going to bd today just to be sure exciting!!!!

 

[missangie]

woohoo Lesley! Hope you caught that egg!!!!!!

 

[Lily7]

Hey Everyone! Can I join? I have been quietly reading along knowing Clomid was going to be our next step and I finally have my prescription! woohoo! I have to wait and start provera next wed then wait for AF then I will be on CD2 - CD6 50 mg. I have to wait a week as opposed to starting now as my consultant is going to be on holiday and wants to be here for my scan between days CD10 - 14. I am excited and scared at the same time, just hoping it helps! GL to those waiting to test x

Hey everyone.

Had my second ultrasound today... was diagnosed with PCOS last month and FS wanted to see if the follicles 'grew' anything in my cycle. Today showed no growth, but 6 follicles in left ovary and 4 in right.

He put me on BCP for 16 days to correct hormones, and then i will be on meds below...
CD 1-9 Estrofem 2mg twice daily
CD 4-9 Clomid (50mg) daily
CD 3-6,8,10 Gonal-F 75iu injection daily

FS says that this should help with the sizes of the follicles and hopefully force me to ovulate. Next FS visit on CD11/12.

He is positive that i should ovulate within the next cycle! Let's hold thumbs!

The FS did mention that should i ovulate, he will give me the Ovidrel shot, and then we will do IUI on two days after that. (3 straws of donor sperm the one day, and 3 straws the following day)

Good luck to you all.

[ttcinct]

Hello everyone! I am new to this forum and a Clomid user. My first cycle on 50mg day 5-9 I ovulated on day 19. Second cycle they moved me up to day 3-7 and I did not ovulate . I have a appointment on Friday for a cyst check even though I didn't ovulate and then probably will have to go on provera since no af. Yet. Anyone have a similar experience? Do those of you that get mid cycle ultrasounds get them from your ob/gym or are you seeing specialists yet? We have been TTC for 10 months.

I've seen posts from a number of women that had to lose weight before they recvd their clomid prescription. Being at an unhealthy weight can keep one from carrying a healthy pregnancy full term. So starting clomid to get pregnant while at an unhealthy weight would seem dangerous and pointless I would imagine. It would be heart breaking to get a BFP only to see it lost to something that could be avoided.
I'm sure I would be disappointed if I had to wait any longer to get started, but just try to think about it positively. Losing some weight will benefit both you and your future little bean. Maybe losing weight will help you get that BFP sooner than if you hadn't. Good luck

hi ladies

lily-glad you can join us
sasha-wow! you have your hands full with all those meds! hope everything works out for you.
vic-i think that is why i didn't o on 50 mg, because i am overwt. everything i read about the drug says that it can fail to make you o if your bmi is too high. i am roughly 200lbs and 5'5". doc still put me on the med, but i had to be bumped up to 100 mg this month.
ttc-do you have pcos???? doc made me wait til i hit a hear to give me the clomid. i don't get monitored yet. this is my second month on it. the doctor said that i will either get pregnant by cd 30, get period by cd 30 (if the clomid worked), or not ovulate and not get period (then we know i didn't ovulate). this is coming from my ob/gyn.....

 

[Vic20581]

Thanks i know i have to lose weight, just hate waiting, but if its to help the soon tobe baby then its worth it. At least my doc has said she will give it, something yo work towards.

Just started clomid this week. I was late by 5 hours taking my second dose. So I'm very nervous. Has anyone had success with clomid???
