Starting clomid in February... buddies?

[RedRose19]

hiya brandi hope things are good with you x

 

[dogmommy]

Thanks ladies, I'll keep you all posted. I didn't take any meds this cycle just waiting for AF. I don't think we Bd at the right time this month. Once AF gets here then I'll get an ultrasound and bloodwork and start injectibles.

Krissie good luck with the femara. I've heard some really great things.

Angela I'm sorry about AF did you get an appt yet to start ivf?

Red I'm so sorry about your scare. So glad you and baby are ok. How exciting for the gender scan! Its going by so fast! Are you showing yet?

Hi brandi!! Hope all is well dear.

Dogmommy FX this is your month xx

AFM my Dr is useless called up spoke to her PA who was originally going to book me in for follicle tracking told her that I'm supposed to be getting transfered to the women's and she became abrupt with me saying oh your not happy with the care we're giving you and want to transfer so I had to explain the whole thing to her (which I shouldn't have to do as they have my file) to which she then said oh right she needs to refer you now okay leave your number I'll get her to call you left my number and guess what still waiting for that call she never calls me back so it looks like I'm going to have to call her PA everyday now till she does speak to me, why do they have to make this so difficult the journey is already hard enough without this added stress x

 

[krissie328]

Angela- I am so sorry you have yet another layer of problems with them. I hope you get the doctor soon and can get referred.

Dogmommy- fx injectibles are just what you need to get your sticky bean!!

Afm, I think I should have taken a break from meds this cycle. I am still just a mess. Last night I spent 30 mins arguing with DH for stupid reasons and just ended up crying. On top of that I am really struggling with hot flashes and horrible nausea. I really hope I ovulate on this and its all worth it in the end.

 

[RedRose19]

Krissie I hope the hard cycle has a good outcome for all your hardship, some cycles are harder than others. X

Hope everyone is ok

Brandi I hope your injectables work. Looking forward to hearing your update

Angela how annoying like you say it's hard enough this journey without horrible people making it worse!

Brandi yeah I've a bit of bump now.. showing quicker this time

 

[AngelaALA]

Hey guys Krissie sorry to hear femera has bad side effects for you really hope it works xx

Red that's great you have a little bump now showing hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly when do you have your next scan x

AFM got back in touch with the DR they have done the referral today told me it's been quite quick lately show should have my first consultation in 4 - 6 weeks here's hoping xx

 

[RedRose19]

Wow that's quick let's hope you get a bfp by Xmas Angela!
So exciting I can't wait to hear your referral is here.

My next scan is September the 17th it's the private one, next clinic is September 29, and holidays is a week today yay

 

[brandi91]

Yay! Exciting news Angela!

Good luck with everyone dogmommy and Krissie!

AFM, hubby and I are taking a break from meds due to cost. I've been having a really hard time with it but I am just trying to be patient.

 

[AngelaALA]

Red that's exciting two scans coming up if I was pregnant I think I'd want some private scans too I'd want to see it all the time xx I hope you have an amazing holiday last one before the baby arrives hey xx

Brandi so sorry your having a hard time I know that feeling LTTTC is such a hard journey can take its toll on you emotionally, physically, the relationship and for you the extra burden of financially but your a strong couple you will pull through and one day you will have your beautiful baby xx FX for you hun xx

AFM no news this front I've decided to temp again just incase when I go for my consultation they want to see this xx

 

[RedRose19]

We leave Wednesday night I'm so excited but also nervous as I've never flew while pregnant and Jamie could be difficult at times but hopefully overall it's a success

I'm excited for you ladies I feel there is about to be a shower of bfp s in here!

 

[AngelaALA]

Here's hoping hun and I'm sure you will be fine hun and have an amazing time x

 

[krissie328]

Have fun red, I'm sure you will all have a good time.

It has been awhile since we had any bfp. We really do need some.

 

[AngelaALA]

Just got a letter from the women's that was quick got to fill out a former which I've done and send back they're checking to see if I'm eligible for IVF which I should be hopefully and they will be in touch with me shortly it also says that currently there is no waiting list for IVF so it should be quite quick here's hoping xx

 

[krissie328]

That's fantastic Angela. Fx you hear back quickly.

 

[AngelaALA]

Here's hoping they said it's with the NHS Funding Assessment Team once they hear from them they will be in touch in due course hopefully will hear something back in the next few weeks but wasn't expecting a letter that quickly xx

 

[RedRose19]

Wow amazing how fast they are in UK! I was waiting a year for my first fertility meeting, over a year later before I got pregnant, and I was made wait 1.5years of trying before I was referred for the fertility clinic!

That is super exciting I tell ya you will get your bfp before xmas!

 

[brandi91]

Yay! Good luck angela!!!! I'm CD 27 and I'm spotting like I'm about to start again! In seriously in shock. I never have spotting unless I'm starting. Assuming I properly start tomorrow, it will be a perfect 28 day cycle. That is unheard of with my body! I have NEVER had a 28 day cycle. I was lucky to get a single period every two years. Looks like my last two periods have come on their own. Wondering if it could be from leftover Femara in my system, though I haven't taken it in two months? Also wondering if it is the spearmint tea!

 

[AngelaALA]

Brandi that's great news you could also be ovulating too what ever your doing keep it up hun and you never know maybe you will get a natural BFP xx

 

[sarah2211]

Hi ladies, I hope you don't mind me joining. I start Clomid next cycle, once I've finished provera and my next cycle begins. I'm really hopeful that we will get our sticky BFP soon!

I'm wondering if any of you can share what happened with your cycles on Clomid. Currently my cycles are about 37-43 days. Will clomid make them shorter (if i O)? I'm taking 50mg CD3-7. What cycle days should we consider as the fertile window? And what can I expect in terms of side effects and will these disappear after I stop taking the Clomid? Anything else I should know?

 

[Vankiwi]

Red where are you going?

Angela that's great it was so fast!!

Welcome Sarah! Side effects are different for everyone. I didn't have any and I was on 100mg 3-7, I took it at night to help avoid the side effects. OPKs will help pinpoint your fertile time.
