Starting clomid in February... buddies?

[RedRose19]

Ladies I had cold feet about the section and I told the consultant how I felt so new plan is a sweep Monday (which I'm totally dreading) if nothing then induction Thursday Feb 9th hopefully baby by Friday 10th

 

[AngelaALA]

Thanks guys and FX Red that the sweep works xx

I've already tested out the HCG Shot and my htp cheapies are now stark white I want to start testing but know its far too soon so I'll leave it a week and just chill out try and keep my mind occupied AF is due 10th Feb and hospital want me to take a test on 11th Feb and call them with the result here's hoping it's positive either way they will call me in for a consultation if negative to discuss the next step or book me a scan for three weeks time if positive xx

Angela I have everything crossed for you! Try to enjoy PUPO. Take as much rest and relaxation and let that embie dig deep!!

Red I can't believe your little guy will be here in the matter of days. Hope you're not too uncomfortable. I know Feb is going to be a great month for us!!

How's everyone doing?

 

[krissie328]

I can't believe little Mathew will be here so soon! And it's officially February.

Afm, things could be better. I'm having health issues that I think will postpone seeking fertility treatments for awhile. I feel like everything is stacked against us with getting pregnant again.

 

[RedRose19]

Thanks ladies I'm at the point where I just need him here safe and so Jamie can meet his little brother . His anxiety has gone up so much but probably me away at hospital appts.

This is definitely gonna be a good month for us ladies

Any of you ladies take Clomid while breastfeeding? Supposed to start today, bfing my 13 m/o and worried about milk supply. Did Clomid + BF my 20 mo with no issues. Don't worry, my fertility doctor is okay with it!

 

[Uselessbits]

Hi there. I will be on my second round of the Devils dandruff when AF comes. We completely missed O this months as OH had to go out of town urgently 😡😡😡 so cross as clomid makes me feel dreadful. We have just found out that after a year of zinc vitamins and no smoke and drink OH's morphology has dropped from 8 percent normal to 1 percent!
I'm feeling pretty poop. Bit it only takes 1 as they say. When are you due to start? do you get side effects? I turn into a monster x

 

[brandi91]

Hey everyone!

Red, only a few more days!! EEK! Your pregnancy has just flown by.

Angela, I have everything crossed for you! I can't wait!

How is everyone else? Dogmommy, have you got any plans for another IVF cycle? I've been thinking about you!!

Uselessbits, I assume the drop in percentage of morphology is a negative thing (sorry-I'm really unfamiliar with male infertility). That is so frustrating! Welcome to the group. I hope that you have good results this month!

AFM, I called my doctor today!!!!!!!!! I only left a message, and they called back while I was working, and they didn't leave a message. Hubby finally came around to me calling without too much begging from my part. I'm inquiring about trying the 150 mg of Clomid.

 

[krissie328]

Brandi that is fantastic news! Fx it does just the trick.

Useless- sorry to hear about dh morph. Fx clomid gives you and edge to getting a bfp.

Ttc- no experience with clomid and bfing. Hopefully it turns out fine.

Afm, waiting and waiting. Feeling better today. Still unsure where we are with ttc but I'm going to do clomid next cycle and go from there. We won't be ttc in March or April. :/

 

[TTCBean]

Took my first dose of 150mg! I am having butterflies and doubts! So anxious! Would love to add one more baby to our family, so many emotions. I lay here looking at my 13 month old, he is still such a baby still... love him so!

 

[brandi91]

Update! I heard from my doctor. They don't want to try the Clomid because I tried the highest dosage of femara and have done Clomid in the past with no success. They said if I can't do injections, then I need to come in to discuss alternative treatment options.

I take that to mean diet and exercise. Which is fine, but I'm still super bummed. I'm trying not to be all "poor me" this morning. Lol.

 

[krissie328]

That's super disappointing Brandi.

Brandi so sorry to hear that but there is alot of people on here that have had great success with injections keep us posted what you decide xx

Dogmommy how are you feeling are you okay when will your next IVF treatmenf be will you be using FET xx

TTCbean goodluck this cycle how come you use clomid if you dont mind me asking xx

Uselessbits welcome I hope Clomid gives you wgat you want, Clomid use to send me crazy my emotions would be all over the place I hated the stuff and just like you my DH was diagnosed with low motility we did Clomid 6 months didnt work so we have just done our first IVF treatment I hope Clomid does work for you xx

 

[TTCBean]

Angela, I don't have cycles! For some unknown reason. All my tests come back normal. Before DS1 I didn't have Af for nearly two years, and multiple rounds of Provera didn't include one. Weird huh? Both my boys I had to take Clomid. I haven't bled since about 2010ish. Only thing that gives me "periods" is BCP but once I stop they are absent again.

Since my history doctor didn't think bfing would be interfering much, or at all, considering. It's frustrating! I'd love to have period on my own.

 

[RedRose19]

brandi why cant you do injections? sorry im sure youve said , i must admit i agree with the drs tho if the clomid doesnt work its not worth taking it it just gives you all the bad side effects with no good out come. i do think if there is anyway you can, to take the injections but obviously it depends on your financial situation as i know how expensive they can be x

 

[Nita2806]

Hello Ladies, mind if I jump in?

Just some background, I stopped BCP about a year ago, after which I had 6 anovulatory cycles. Started Clomid after 6 months of TTC on our own. No Ovulation on 50mg or 100mg, however, I achieved Ovulation on 150mg last cycle (S-Prog on CD21 was 66) but we didnt BD enough as we were sure Clomid wont work. I am on CD11 and finished my Clomid 150mg on CD8. Had lots of horrible side effects this cycle - especially Blurred vision, so I think this will also be my last cycle on Clomid. So I am hoping this cycle will give me my BFP.

 

[krissie328]

Welcome Nita. Fx clomid does the trick this cycle.

How are you feeling Angela?

 

[TTCBean]

Welcome, Nita2806. I have the blurred vision too - I had it as well on my last cycle to conceive DS2, thank goodness we got a BFP because I didn't want to continue on. My normal vision came back right away after Clomid.

 

[krissie328]

Wow that's a scarry side effect. Thankfully I've always been okay with clomid. Mostly hot flashes and mood swings.
