Starting clomid in February... buddies?

[brandi91]

Stalking everyone to see BFPs!!!
Redrose I feel your pain!

I called my dr today. They want me to take a pregnancy test (I'm CD 53 with negative tests....pretty sure I'm not). But I'm going to take another to be certain. Then they said give it one more week. If I don't start, I have to come in. Blah.

Sorry for all your frustration red rose. Fingers crossed its right around the corner. Have you tried bding I've heard sometimes that can help.

Krissie sorry your cycles are getting too short . I know I've seen different things that can help lengthen them. Fingers crossed it starts to straighten out for you. But it's gotta be awesome to know you are Oing naturally!

Angela my due date would be around Dec 20th which im hoping and praying as if I do have a winter baby I want one by Christmas as Jan and Feb can be unbearable in Chicago. I did take an IC this morning as I was thinking maybe if implantation was early...lol I'm so silly it came out BFN!!!

So in March I started a b complex, vitamin d and folic acid. So I wonder if with my diet one of those is causing this weirdness.

 

[brandi91]

Am I crazy? I feel like I see something.....very faint.

I am not sure brandi. Fx it gets darker! Do you know how many dpo you are?

 

[brandi91]

Well, I didn't think I even ovulated. But since my period hasn't come after the progesterone, dr wanted me to test. This is a tweaked photo but in the time limit. I'll see if I can mark where I see the line. I went back to my test and didn't see much after the time limit. It was weird when I took it. A line appeared in the test spot but then went away. I'm not getting myself excited. I don't see how I could be pregnant.

 

[brandi91]

Here is one where I pointed it out. I'm not seeing anything IRL now. Probably just wishful thinking.

Brandi I do see a faint line but see if it gets darker or see if your doctor will do bloods xx

Krissie Im not sure if any of them would shorten your cycle but I agree with dogmommy it's great news that you can O on your own xx

Redrose I really do hope AF comes soon for you FX it must be so frustrating to wait all this time xx

Dogmommy I'm the same as you DPO8 and tested lol and of course BFN as it is too early but couldn't help myself, my temps are still high but last month they stayed high till DPO12 and I started spotting DPO11 so if no spotting by DPO12 and temp stays high then I might get a little excited. I'm off to see a psychic tonight aswell, I don't think I believe in them but I'll give anything a go lol xx

I'm feeling so good today I've lost 4lbs in 2 days! That's just cutting out crap food and limiting my milk I usually have tons of milk in my tea, and although not that fattening as low fat but that much together is. So I've been told on my diet I'm allowed 400ml a day. Seems to be working!

Brandi I can see where the line should go but not sure exactly whether or. not it is a line, fingers crossed it gets darker. If you are pregnant maybe test again tomorrow it should be darker.

Not long now angela! I bet your excited.

I've bad cramping today in my downstairs area, I'm hoping its a good sign

 

[RedRose19]

I started my progesterone today, hopefully af will start in 9 days the max,

I'm thinking of taking 150 Clomid, they told me to stick with 100 because it works fine, but clearly it didn't work! Would I be crazy to up my clomid without telling them

 

[brandi91]

I took another and there was a clear line, but I'm going with negative. Dr. Actually told me I could start my clomid today and that they were counting the spotting as my cycle!

 

[krissie328]

Red- congrats on the weightloss! I have no good advice on what to do with the clomid. Did you temp or do opks to confirm ovulation last cycle?

Brandi- can you post a picture? I wouldn't start clomid unless you know for sure you aren't pregnant.

I would agree I'm pretty excited about ovulating on my own. I have good cm right now so hoping to get a positive opk soon.

 

[AngelaALA]

Redrose that's great news about the weight loss I could really do with loosing a bit too xx I'm with Krissie Im not sure whether you should or not give it another cycle following Dr's advice first as your body might still be adjusting xx

Brandi I have everything crossed that it will be a BFP post some pics I need line porn lol xx

Krissie I really hope O comes soon for you FX xx

 

[brandi91]

Having trouble posting a pic on my phone, but I did put it under the pregnancy test gallery to get opinions. I'll post it over here later!

Thanks for all your well wishes! Pretty sure it's just an antibody strip or indent. Should I test again?

 

[krissie328]

I can see the line in the picture. I really hate those. New tests. I would personally wait or request a blood test. :/

 

[brandi91]

Thanks for looking!!! I think I'll take another test. It's been so long since I DTD. I just don't see how I could have a positive. We took a break after CD 20 ish when we realized the meds didn't work (or so we thought), and then I went out of town. I'm now either CD 54/CD 5, depending on how you want to look at it.....I just think I would have to have a line with color by now. I will pick up a couple more this evening. Sorry to hijack our thread with my test woes! Lol!

Actually if you haven't had sex since CD 20 and that was over a month ago, you are likely right. I know some women don't get positives until later. But I am pretty sure that is an uncommon thing.

 

[brandi91]

Took a Walmart cheapie and it was stark white. I'm going with indent or antibody strip. Excited that I get to start my Clomid 100 mg tonight! Thought for sure they'd make me do another round of progesterone to bring a heavier cycle. I feel a little more caught up with everyone. Red rose, any sign of AF???

Anyone else done any testing?

 

[RedRose19]

No af here but I've only just started the meds, hopefully by next week. good luck with the Clomid I hope it's your cycle!

 

[brandi91]

Good luck! I just took my first dose a few minutes ago. So ready to get the ball rolling this month.
