Trying to conceive baby #2. Clomid again? Looking for some buddies x

[xxx_faithful]

Perfect ! thanks girls for answering my questions. It can be daunting when your emotions get you all muddled up..... maybe ive done clomid for so long im starting to forget how it goes :/ hahaha. I think i will book an apt with a Dr here in this new town of Houston and get a blood test, and while im at it get more scripts for clomid just incase as i have one prescription left. How are you girls going? xxxx

Nope - not found a Dr yet.. for some reason im not too rushed. Oh did i tell you my pregnancy tests are expired? lol i just looked at the box and they expired in July... oopsies. I have researched it and they say to discard them immediately when expired while some have tested positive still by chance the chemical on the sticks works.

Will ask a few friends around to find myself a Dr over the weekend. So do you just go to your Specialist for a bloodtest? or a normal GP for a script to pathology to test for ovulation?


P.S FINGERS CROSSED FOR YOU !! xxx

I know !!!!!!!!!! We haved moved every year since we met 5 yrs ago and Newcastle we both believe has been the prettiest, most relaxed and nicest place to live. We were staying in fully serviced apartments near the main area in the city. I would run around all of Newcastle every afternoon for 2hrs straight (i was taking pretty intense fat burning supps), seriously the niiiiicest place to run!!!! and i'm not normally a runner lol.

My dh is in mining engineering. He got offered a transfer with his company in oil & gas here in Texas. Its a big industry and never out of work here which is good. It's crazy i've known a BnB member for 2yrs on here, and found out she lived in Texas and met up this week! lol. Perhaps one day you and i will meet lol

Where are you from originally? Where's your family?

 

[hopefulfor1st]

Well I'm out.
I didn't ovulate this month on clomid. So gutted right now.
Don't know where to go from here hubby says well discuss it tonight.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I'm sorry to hear hopefulfor1st that you didn't manage to ovulate this month. Hmmmm do you think maybe increasing your dose next month? I'm in the frustration boat myself, i'm almost 11 days late now, still testing negative on my expired tests (loll!!) Im afraid to buy a test just to see a negative.... ah. I'll wait 3 more days so i'm 14 days late, get a test and if it's still negative then start cycle #2. I tested only positive around 6weeks pregnant with my baby girl so here's hoping.

In the interim i need to ring the Dr's here, to request a form for them to have access to my medical records back in Australia, so i have clomid backup for the next couple cycles.

How are you feelings towards ttc #2 second time around?

Oh i'm originally from Australia, and dh is South African. We have moved to Newcastle, to Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Blue Mountains, Sydney, and now Texas! lol

Well at least things are clear for you and certain with what to do next. Really praying that both our bodies will ovulate !! Will you wait another week to be sure that your not pregnant? Will you go straight to taking clomid? So run it by me gain, if you take clomid without taking provera, wouldnt that be missing your period?

 

[hopefulfor1st]

In another week ill have another progesterone test to be sure I didn't ov late, and go from there

Hopefulfor1st,

I went to the store to buy my daughter a halloween costume and while i was there i thought i would buy myself a test. I went home and tested, 2 minutes was up i thought so i hopped in the bath and something told me to look back in the bin because something didnt add up and i to my surprise i could see a faint, faint line.

So i waited a bit... and tested with the second stick, but i must of pee'd on it too little because the sample box barely appeared with a light blue mark(not a line) in the result box.
I'm going to leave it a few more days and test PROPERLY in the MORNING..... lol i havent told dh because i think it would be silly to tell him im pregnant if the line is so faint... Pregnancy tests are so complex lol!!!!

Suggestions on what to do? Your the only person i have told!!! lol Meanwhile i booked in to see a Dr for 1.5weeks if i am pregnant otherwise i will wait a few more days and test again, if negative definitely negative then start provera


P.S- I wish Jace & Ciara could meet.. they could be play dates!

 

[hopefulfor1st]

Wow!!! I can't wait til you test again to see what's going on!
Yes they can be complex lol, can u get clearblue digitals there? If it were me I'd be doing 4 tests a day until I got a definite answer haha.

The absolute honest truth.... im scared. I'm so tired of month after month when i was trying for our #1, i have learnt that i dont want to excite myself up to be disappointed

I will give it a few more days and test again (to be absolutely sure before taking provera if it's a bfn) I just dont want the disappointment... Is that understandable or am i being silly? lol. My question is, why on earth can i see a line? (even if it's faint) Is that even possible to have if it's negative?

 

[hopefulfor1st]

It can be that's why they say not to read it after 10 min cos when it dries and can be pretty convincing. Hopefully like you said yours just take a bit longer to register! Any early symptoms?

I cry at the drop of a hat !.... I cry over messages, my baby smiling, even Greys Anatomy. My skin isn't as smooth and i feel like dry-reaching when i see something gross like our sink erator lol. I'm not reading into anything though.. I'll buy a test tomorrow and be done with it

 

[hopefulfor1st]

I cry at greys all the time lol,
Hubby and I have decided not to up my clomid until we focus on losing weight.
When I was 80kg I ovulated and conceived on 50mg.
Now at 85kg 50 didn't even make me ov! The weight must be the problem it's the only difference!

In the mean time we will ntnp, work my butt off and pray for a happy accident!

Hahahah i like your attitude miss! Hmmm is there any way i can help at all? Im sort of a Nutritionist Im very holistic but love food science as well and would take energy/thermogenic powders to assist with exercise which enabled me in the past to easily lose 5kgs. Have a chat with someone in a supplement store and ask what tablets or powders they recommend to assist with weightloss when exercising and google it for yourself and purchase online. I have to be careful with them because i know how powerful they work good luck! and let me know how you go xxx

 

[hopefulfor1st]

I'm hopeless I just can't stay away from sugar and coke so it will be hard! Just gonna be doing lotsa walking with pram I guess! I've always been really skeptical of holistic methods! Is there anything you can think of to suppress hunger and stop boredom eating?

Hahaha. What i meant to say was i am very holistic in many ways but there are some areas that i am very straight to the point and will try non-holistic methods. Like i love positive affirmation, natural/drug free births, homeopathic treatments but i wouldnt say no to clomid, fitness supplements and botox lol. I eat alot of foods, so i wouldn't necessarily agree with stunting hunger, as that shutdowns your body and puts it in 'starvation mode'.

I would definitely recommend something to assist with energy while working out (even if you have lots of energy) it makes you feel like your on speed or something, and strips weight crazy! I actually purchased some whilst living in Newcastle, just ask a supplement store if they have something similar to the product 'poison' or 'oxypro elite'. You only take it for 3-4 weeks ONLY(you will go through one bottle, retails like $40 or $50 bucks) as you strip that much weight your body can only take the supplement in small increments. They import their best products from the U.S, as most products here are banned due to Australia's strict supplements law, compared to the U.S.

Anyway im sure your on your path to achieving your goal without my help lol, but if you ever want to look into it or have q's just ask. Also google psyllium husk it's great for detox/flattening your stomach or MCT oil. It's great for weightless. You can buy it for $30 from supp store (it's a coconut derivative and clings to fat and lets it loose)
