Testers,TTC&After Conception-Clomid,IUI,IVF,Femara -EVERYONE!!

[CiderDonut]

Hi guys! So nice to see everyone's u/s pictures and bumps, it's very encouraging!

I tested today to see if the trigger is out of my system (10 dpt) and it's not. I'm only 8 dpo, so it can't be a true positive. That's a little frustrating, since it means I may not be able to take a HPT before my bloodwork (next Tuesday) since I'll be worried that it's still a false positive from the trigger.

I'll probably test this weekend anyways, because I can't stop myself. Maybe it'll get darker? Trying not to get my hopes up...

Well, I had my day 3 blood work today and now it's just the waiting game to get the results. Spoke with my OB afterwards and even though she is not hopefull following my HSG test and discovering my blocked tube, I am going to try Clomid this month! I start friday, take for 5 days and then head back on day 23 for more blood work. She said it couldn't hurt, but was going in with low expectations. Sounds like this will be my only month on Clomid and then depending on blood results I will head straight to the infertility clinic! Mixed emotions as every month that goes by it gets more and more frustrating but happy my doctor is very proactive and understands my anxiousness!

If you took Clomid, let me know if you had any side effects! Type A told me she had hot flashes, but said headaches were also common!

Praying for everyone in the group, so thankful we have one another

Question: When did you all start leaking? Are you leaking yet, pregnant ladies?

I started leaking today and on my left side its white stuff, right side watery. Is that normal? I think its quite early!

 

[luna_19]

I had horrible headaches on clomid. It also made me pee a ton.

My boobs never leaked but most people's do

 

[lune_miel]

smileydoc- what dose are you on? I find it best to take in the evening, that way if you do have any side effects you will sleep through it! I really didn't have any, and I was on 100.

We don't have many charters- I miss being able to chart stalk

I'm on 50mg! Thanks everyone for the suggestions! I'll keep you posted on how it goes! PS - did anyone get pregnant on Clomid...not that I'm expecting it, but just curious to know!

 

[lune_miel]

Yup! Took me 3 cycles both times (had a m/c in the spring).

 

[luna_19]

I got my bfp on my first clomid cycle

 

[Grateful365]

Allika I didn't leak while pregnant but I've heard it is very common to do so.

 

[FindingKismet]

Hi ladies, I'm starting the IVF process, and I'm a little confused about some things. Maybe some of you can help.

We did blood work and ultrasound yesterday CD3. I had a 14mm follicle, and the tech wasn't sure if we needed to cancel IVF or not. She asked the nurse who said it's fine, just start taking the birth control pills they put you on until it's time to start stimming. They called me later and said the Doctor said it was fine too. Is it fine?? Why do they do the scan to begin with if it doesn't matter what they find?

My FSH went back down. Yay!!!! It's 5 now. But last time they tested me it was 19 and they said I might need an egg donor. Does anyone know if it was once high but went back down, what does that mean as far as egg quality? I've read that if it was ever that high it's a bad sign, even if it went down.

Also, I chart BBT. My temp shot up today. I'm guessing it's becaue I started birth control pills yesterday. Do bcp make your temp rise?

Thanks for your input guys!!

Hi Smileydoc!

I've only done one cycle of Clomid (and I will know definitively on Tuesday whether it got me a BFP), but I didn't really have any side effects from the pills. I took them at night, and if I did have any hot flashes, I slept right through them. FX'ed for this cycle for you!

 

[moni77]

Smiley - Same here - took clomid this cycle for the IUI - had no real issues but took it at night. I was also on 100mg.

Finding - I'm not sure the answers to your questions - hopefully someone on here can give you some insight. A single temp spike could just be random - see if it stays high.
