Hi thats it really. If there is anyone who is about to start a new cycle with clomid, can you please be my friend?
This will be my first try on clomid, I have pcos, and started af today after a horrible 48 day cycle.
But af is here, hurray! which means i can start on the magic beans tomorrow.
So if you would like chat and hand holding too, please sign in here.
Im thinking good sense of humour, sympathy, and patience will be a must

hi awen, i have just sneaked back on, but only for a sec, just shoved the moussaka in the oven and only have few minutes!!
(mn is so addictive isnt it!)
Like you I will be having my 21 day test on day 20 as it falls on a saturday. Not sure if this will skew the results or not.
I hereby solomnly promise to :
not use ov sticks - they are the devils toys!
not temp
not use stupid licky ovulation saliva ferning microscope thing which cost me £20 and have never shown ferning pattern ever
and above all I promise to bd every other day with my dh (or every day if he is feeling particularly awake!!)
How old are you awen? I notice you have a dd. How long have you been ttc this time?
I am 32 in June, dh is 35. We been married for 2and a half years, and we been "officially" ttc about 2 years, but not used any contraception since we got married.
So Im getting tired of waiting for the bambinos to arrive
I was diagnosed pcos May o6 and had ovarian drilling in sept 06.
tell me about you too.
Glad to hear you only had 1 test, i was getting a bit concerned.
f*ck! moussaka!
Will chat more tomorrow x x

hey pcm Back - ds now fast asleep

I had no real bad side effects.. perhaps a little dryer down there than normal

Dont worry about all the blood tests - i too only had one - cd 20 here. No idea if have ov. Like daisyhun suggested we have BD'd ALOT!! lol
Will be bd 13 tonight .. altho as I said CD24. Anxiously waiting on blood test results altho daisy's post has given hope re even if says not ov I still might.

I have been sick several times tonight and felt sick last night. Dont feel really ill just sick iykwim.. not sure what to make of that.

I did clomid days 5-9 of cycle so started BD straight after AF left!

I also wish I hadnt bought the home OV tests as I think having PCOS it messes up results a bit. xx

hello!!!!!!!! i was starting to feel a bit sorry for myself and go and sit in the garden and eat worms all by myself!! But Hurray for mn, I do have clomid cycle buddies after all!!
Well,,,,,,, had my 2nd magic bean this morning. And guess what?
Absolutely nothing to report!! I think I thought more would happen I dont actually have anything to write about, but I think I just needed to have a bit of the mn sharing/hand holding/are youdoinOK kind of thing going on if that makes sense!
Wannabe and Coggy.......you found me
Coggs when i last checked your thread you hadnt posted((((pcm wags finger)))) get thee to your thread and post woman i have been worried about you. Wanna, how are things honey?
Awen.........wow, you are a proper cycle buddy!! Did you have any side effects?? The only test i have been asked to have is the 21 day blood test, was a bit miffed , thoughti would be having lots of looking at throughtout but apparently not.
So, af still enjoying her visit, but dont worry when shes gone me and the dh will be at it like the proverbial bunnies.
Oh, and congratulations to daisyhun ......
4th cycle you say? well im hoping for any cycle going, but would be estatic with 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th...
I will keep you all posted!
(((((big hugs))))) to everyone xxxxxxx

Oh.......exciting stuff....starting tomorrow then PCM??

Hi

Sorry to jump on this thread but I just wanted to say GOOD LUCK. I conceived my first child - dd (now 8 weeks old) on my 4th cycle of clomid which I was taking as I have PCOS.

It really does work - just remember to BD a LOT and not just in the week you are supposed to be OVing but all through the cycle - we conceived on a cylce where I thought I had not ovulated as blood test said I hadn't but turns out I just ovulated 5 days later than predicted (if that makes sense).

Good luck

MamaMaiasaura · 20/03/2007 16:03

Hi pussycat - I am in my first cycle of clomid and also have PCOS. Started mine a bit late in my cycle CD5. Am CD24 today. What dose are you on? I am 50mg. Had blood test and awaiting results x

Sunshinedays · 19/03/2007 12:35

Hi PCM
I have recently stopped taking Clomid - so i am not a lot of help as a buddy.... but just to say was was pretty anxious about the potential side effects and popping the pills, in fact I didn't get much, except even bigger boobs - just remember they DO work for some women... - so keep optimistic and realistic if you can!

I'll keep an eye on this thread if you have any questions (I'll do my best to answer!)

Are you having any scans / blood tests?

PS - I'm also a member of another fertility site (fertilityfriends.co.uk) I can be a bit cutesy (I prefer MN) but it is good for finding other women going through the same thing at the same time.
Sx
