Yes I'm not quite 30 yet so I do know I technically have plenty of time left but unless they find the underlying problem it could be like this for years :( @Sylva123

Thanks chick I hope it goes okay I'm sat here and feeling really sad today for some reason :( @CharlotteCx

Oh yes thanks @Beth804 x

Still no positive OPK for me, CD15 😥

Anyone else had mid cycle spotting on Clomid?? I have read it's fairly common but would love some reassurance!

Just had my review and they've put me on 3 rounds of Letrezole before IVF (which I'm not 100% on) so hoping this will work x

JadeS174 · 09/12/2019 12:27

@carleygh my cycles have been between 28 and 39 days long since coming off the pill last year. I really hope the letrezole works for you! XxX

@carleygh that's great about the letrozole. So good to have another option before IVF. It was me on the other thread saying I've been prescribed it too. I'll be starting it next week if my period comes on Sunday. Did they tell you what days to take it? They didn't tell me so I'm presuming it's day 2 for 5 days like clomid? I need to call them to check!

carleygh · 09/12/2019 17:36

Oh yay I wondered who it was. I'll be due to start it around Xmas (typical 😂) it's day 3 for this and for five days :-) how many months did you get given? @Sylva123x

Report
Sylva123 · 09/12/2019 17:46

I got given 3 months but I have an appt with the consultant in Feb as well. I don't know if I will take it this next month because I'm due to ovulate over Xmas and I don't know how much we'll be able to dtd because of traveling to see family etc. But I'm really anxious about skipping a month, it feels like each month we lose another potential egg.
Glad I asked about what days to take it! I was going to take it on day 2! I'll still call to check what she says just in case.
I don't think it has worked this month. Day 24 today and feeling period pains :-(

Bless you, my consultant reassured me having sex every other day during the window is all that is required. She asked us to not put pressure and certainly not worry about everyday so that made me feel better. When is your window over xmas? Does it make you ovulate around CD 14-19?

Oh bless
You if it helps I followed a lady on Instagram today who has unplanned fertility and it worked on her third cycle :-)

You're the same as me then I only have three months @Sylva123 x

@JadeS174 it's my first cycle of Clomid as well, I have three months. I have got EWCM tonight and a line so dark on the OPK I think it's nearly positive. Fingers crossed it will positive tomorrow on CD16 for me. Going to try and dtd tonight. Have you managed to dtd since getting your positive??

JadeS174 · 09/12/2019 19:32

@dragonfly1978 ohhh my fingers are crossed for you! Let me know.

Yes we dtd Friday and got our positive this morning and then dtd. Hope to try again tomorrow and then will just have to wait at see. Due on Xmas day! 🙄 xxx

@carleygh oh I'm happy that you've got another option before IVF hun! How r u feeling? I am happy that your consultant told you again today that every other day through fertile window is more than enough! Makes me think I'm in with a good chance 😚

I'm really really hoping the Letrozole works for you 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

So, my nipples are like SO sore to touch, have got worse through out the day - I am fully aware that this wouldn't be a pregnancy symptom as at 3DPO the egg wouldn't of even attached itself yet, but I have looked back at the 2 other cycles on Clomid on my Ovia and on 3DPO on them cycles hasn't been sore nipples! I usually get this at about 5-7 days before I come on AF, so I'm thinking - maybe my body's creating more progesterone because it knows an egg is going to attach which is why my boobs are hurting already? Or am I just wishful thinking 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ xx

@carleygh did they say why they think the clomid hasn't worked even though you ovulated all 6 cycles xx

@dragonfly1978 sorry you've not had your positive as of yet - just keep testing you'll probably get it in the next few days 🤞🏻

Good to hear from you all ladies (and thanks for tagging @Beth804!) Sounds like lots of positive news and signs from everyone Grin.

I've been taking a bit of a step back and concentrating more on my diet and preparing for IVF, which may well be earlier into 2020 than we thought.

Will still pop on every now and again to see people's news though - really think these next couple of months are going to be so positive for our little group! Xx

I'm getting so impatient to test already and I'm only 5dpo 😩 This week is going to drag!! My last pregnancy I got implantation bleeding at 7dpo, so hoping for that again!
