Good luck when you test. It doesn't look like you were temping this cycle. Were you taking a more relaxed approach?

Yeah, no temping this cycle. It was starting to get too stressful and we got a BFN with clomid last cycle.

We're going to try a relaxed approach until next August when we buy our own home.

Sounds like a good plan! Temping can be stressful. I found OPKs to be the most stressful.

I haven't tried OPK's yet and I don't think I will. Like you said, I can imagine them being very stressful.

Still no AF though! I have lots of "different" symptoms, like my boobs are really achey, I'm exhausted all the time, and I'm so hungry and nauseated..I have to eat every 3 hours at least! I'm actually going to test on Wednesday instead...it's finals week! Ahh!

Good luck! Those are the kind of symptoms I'm having now

Hey Everyone! Stopping in to say hi! I just finished my first round of Clomid on Friday-- Kerrbear is giving me hope that it will work for us these next few cycles

Ashybug - how many cycles have you used clomid thus far?

Will be testing Dec 28th if AF stays away. Waiting for a positive OPK for now!!!

 

[aknqtpie]

Hi Jary!!!! How is baby doing?? When do you find out if you are having a boy or girl (or are you team yellow?)

Last cycle was my first round of clomid. It wasn't too bad I didn't notice any changes besides headaches and a little cramping. But obviously it didn't work. I'm not trying it again until we figure out my husband's problems or we see a fertility specialist.

 

[ashybug]

Ugh not so great news. Yesterday my symptoms all went away. No nausea or anything..and late last night I started cramping. Today I have a little bit of brown discharge. I think I may have had another chemical Sheesh I don't know what I'm doing wrong...

But yeah, I'd say I'm out this cycle!

 

[Jary]

Hi ladies! We are staying team yellow but i have a feeling its going to be hard not to want to find out lol. Baby is doing well....likes to play hide and seek when i use my doppler so getting to listen to the HB is like trying to catch a slippery fish xD

keeping my FX'D for all you ladies

 

[ashybug]

Okay, just kidding. Still no AF haha oh boy... I'm testing again tomorrow
I had a little bit of brown spotting once Tuesday and a tiny bit Wednesday. Definitely not all day. Like 1 minute..

I'll let you all know how the testing goes tomorrow It was very faint on Wednesday (and maybe I just have line eye!).

Sounds like everything is going great for you Jary!!! LEt us know if you end up finding out the gender

Ashybug- FX for you!!! This is my first round of clomid. It hasn't been too bad, just hoping it makes me ovulate.

Happy Friday everyone!

 

[ashybug]

Sorry I forgot about this, but AF showed up late on the 13th, lasted about 5 days, and started again today...so I'm obviously out and I obviously need to get my hormones checked. :/ Boo

 

[kerrbear7183]

Sorry to hear that. Will you be able to have blood work done or anything?

Good luck with your new cycle. Do you have any idea why your last cycle was so long?

 

[mrs_kboy]

I was told years ago I may have pcos I was about 18 and was just starting the pill so i'v not been tested but have lots of symptoms. Gonna see how this cycle goes, if its another long one ill go back to the doctors!

Well I saw my obgyn today, it turns out I had an early miscarriage at 6 weeks
I have an ultrasound appointment for around CD 5-8 to make sure everything is clear and that I don't have fibroids or anything like that. If that's clear, I'm getting one of those dye tests done to see if my tubes are clear (what are those called???). I also need to take a HPT every 5 days starting around CD 30 and go in for blood work if it looks remotely positive.

Also she told me to start the "fertility diet", keep taking prenatals, take probiotics, and eat a yogurt every day. Sooo we'll see how this goes. I'm kind of devastated :/

Sooo I won't be keeping up with this stuff anymore as obviously I have a lot on my plate...

 

[aknqtpie]

I am sorry Ashy from my experience on my miscarriage, if things to get back to normal within a month.. stay on top of your doctor to do another ultrasound or have a d&c done if necessary. I let my stuff go on far too long, and just had my D&C on monday... three months after everything had started. I kick myself for not bothering my doctors to do more.
