Starting clomid in February... buddies?

[RedRose19]

oh no, sorry to hear about the side effects, thankfully clomid never really gave me any but i was only on it for 3 cycles and they didnt bother trying me on 150. but the injections had me feeling miserable alright.

angela i hope your doing well, excited to hear some daily updates

 

[Nita2806]

Thanks for the warm welcome I am bummed that I only got the side effects this bad on the 4th cycle, after I am finally Ovulating. I really do hope I will again. If it result in a BFN this month, ill need to see my doctor to discuss my options. I also started with a dietition about a week ago, and I am already losing weight and eating much healthier, which should boost my ovulation a bit.

 

[RedRose19]

Gosh I'm so tired today ladies , finding it hard to function! Got some cleaning done today will try do more over the weekend but bending it's getting tiresome. Wish I could just sleep til next week

 

[TTCBean]

Feeling really ill tonight, bloating and stomach ache with nausea. Scheduled to take Clomid in about an hour. No idea why I feel so bad, I sure hope I didn't catch a GI bug. I've taken Clomid six times in my life without symptoms like this - could it be causing these symptoms? Ugh!

 

[RedRose19]

Sounds like a tummy bug to me Sorry! Hopefully it passes quickly :flowers:

How is everyone today? Feeling crampy and achey today

 

[TTCBean]

My tummy feels better this morning I am happy to report, but I have some nausea so probably just Clomid!

 

[AngelaALA]

TTCBean sorry to hear that you dont ovulate by yourself and they cant find a reason Im glad Clomid has worked for you in the past and I really hope it works this time too xx

Nita FX that it works for you this month sounds like awful side effects but they will pass after you have taken your last clomid pills FTX for you, my side effects on Clomid where that it really screwed up my emotions I was almost bipolar on that stuff one minute happy next crying next angry xx

Krissie has AF arrived yet xx

Red not long now I hope it passes quickly for you xx

AFM cheers guys Im doing okay took a test today I know Im only really 10 DPO but it was stark white BFN I just really dont have a good feeling about this I dont think it's worked, my official testing date is 11th Feb next Saturday I have to take one then and call the hospital with the result I have put on ao much weight I feel awful all my clothes are so tight whilst on the medication I just couldn't stop eating. I hate the progesterone suppositories can't wait to stop taking them Ive started taking them vaginally now its a bit messy have to wear a pad but taken the other way I was so gassy and my stomach felt off all the time sorry for the TMI. Other than that Im just the same nothing to really write about at the mo I know its going to break me if this is a bust but I also know its out of my hands just a waiting game just wish the TTW would go quicker feels like its dragging xx

 

[RedRose19]

Big hugs hun, the tww is always hard, more so when having fertility treatment. It's still early day yet. What kind of test did you take?

 

[krissie328]

Yes, the tww is always dreadful. I'm sure it's especially tough this time.

Afm, no af yet. Should be here sometime this week. I've decided to do clomid this round. Still undecided with fertility appointment but I'm leaning towards rescheduling for June. That will allow me get in with my gp after monitoring my BP for awhile so I know if that's a true issue or not. I'm also going to request updated blood work and to check for anemia since I have a history of it.

 

[Nita2806]

Goodluck with the TWW, its just 2 weeks, but it feels like a lifetime

Afm, last month I had heaps of EWCM on CD13 and Od on CD14, this month, CD13 has come and gone and no EWCM, infact, no CM at all. Just like all my anovulatory cycles. I am so bummed about it, and so over this already

 

[AngelaALA]

Dont give up hope Nita you can O as late as Cd21 you using OPKS xx

Krissie I understand why you're holding spending all that money best to get the blood pressure checked out first keep us updated how you get on xx

Red I only took an IC a one step one left over from my Clomid days Ive also got a store own brand one and two CB Digis again also left over from the Clomid days not taking a digi till test date which is next Sat xx

I know its still early days I just want to know this waiting is intense the worst due to all the lead up knowing it was fertilised and into blastcyst stage it makes your head spin more as you know it was put in so you just hope that your body doesnt reject it xx

 

[RedRose19]

I tested with a frer at 9&10 dpo and both were super faint I can imagine a ic would of still been blank for me. Don't worry very early days. I'd get some frers if I was you!

Ladies sweep tomorrow and I'm bricking it... Terrified its gonna hurt

 

[AngelaALA]

I'm not going to buy anymore Ive had bad experiences with frer I'll just keep with what I have and play the waiting game even though its killing me xx

Goodluck Red it may hurt slightly but Im sure the pain wont last long I hope it brings on your baby hun xx

 

[Nita2806]

Angela, Its hard to not lose hope after so many failed attempts on Clomid. I can't use OPKs, it just doesnt work for me, I didnt get a +OPK last month, yet I have Ovulated. I rely on the CD21 bloodtest to confirm Ovulation - which I will go do this Sunday. But I just really dont have any hope for this cycle.

 

[RedRose19]

Looks like I won't need that sweep anyway! Just lost my entire plug and bits of blood sorry tmi but now having constant period pains and lower back pain.. gonna go to my routine appt at normal for ten and hope she tells me what I wanna hear, that.Labour has started itself!

 

[AngelaALA]

Goodluck Red it does sound like it has thinking of you today xx

Nita I'm LTTTC, been trying since Nov 2013 its been a long time I just dont think it will ever happen to be honest I dont think I'll ever have my own child.

Sorry guys for getting down just feel low today plus its my dads birthday today he passed away in 2013 and I really do miss him xx

 

[Nita2806]

Angela, I dont think I would stay sane if we were to try that long and not be succesful. Is there any reason why you are not getting preg. or do you also have unexplained?

Its been about a year so far for us, with atleast 10 anovulatory cycles. Its been tough on me especially the last few months. We got a glympse of hope when I ovulated last month - atleast we know I can. I just wish I knew how long I need to wait still, I feel like it is just never going to happen.

So sorry to hear about your dad I'll be keeping you in my thoughts today.

 

[krissie328]

Fx for you Red!

 

[krissie328]

Angela- keeping my ftx for your bfp!!

Afm, af arrived today in full force. I think I will do the clomid this cycle. DH wants to do our fertility appointment this months so we will likely keep it. But we will be on a break either way for March/April. We talked more about not trying for another one this weekend. I think we are both kinda on the fence so I guess we will see what the consultation has to offer and go from there.

 

[AngelaALA]

IVF'S not worked Im not pregnant I'm completely heartbroken and a complete mess right now it's useless it'll never work for me obviously Im never meant to be a mum someone seriosly hates me up there
