Roll up, roll up!....Clomid cycle buddy needed please, dont want to do this on my own!

Mrs Mills,

I wouldn't judge you for not seeing the doctor, my husband and I were abroad, and we bought enough clomid to see us through a few extra months if we needed. This was when we were trying for no 1 and conceived on first cylce.

No 2 however is proving a little more difficult, currently on cycle three, had positive on cycle 2 but misscarried, meantime the time to see the consultant has been deminishing, so not too long a wait, thank goodness my supplies are low!!! Maybe another holiday DH?

Coggy- tell all. A bit nervous about what's involved, how often I have tobe poked and prodded etc. Tell all after your appointment.....

...though if I don't answer, don't take it personally. Off to the house with no bathroom again for the weekend. And won't have interweb.

Flossie CD21- I think- cycle 2 of Clomid. Super long cycles!!

Another chlomid taker joining up if poss?

However,and please don't judge me, but for reasons explained earlier on in this thread I have not been to see a doctor,I have got the chlomid myself and am currently on cd5.

I forgot how stressful all this malarky was!

Good luck for the follicular tracking, Coggy. Let us know how it goes.

Shall we have a roll call so we know who is here and where we are all at? I'll start...

lulu CD7 3rd cycle clomid

minxi...the tablets can be magic.....I was ttc for nearly 5 years then fell pg after my third month of clomid....it can happen...but those sad days seem to come a bit more frequently after a long time of ttc don't they?
(((((hugs))))) for you.

I am having follicular tracking in 2 hours!!!
Any questions Flosspot???
Ask away...I am a piggin' follicular tracking expert!!!!!!

Flosspot, it is so worth it, I understand it is an emotional rollercoaster, I am ttc no.2 at the moment and trying to stay positive but the clomid isn't doing it's magic yet.

Sending you all wishing dust sprinkles

It'd better be worth it, that's all I can say!!!

Feeling the love, people. Sending it out into the interweb ether to find you and bring you good luck!

Not a bore at all Floss! I do think it sounds that you are making progress, though. The tracking sounds a good idea and will mean you can know exactly what is happening and when you are ovulating.

PCM I know exactly how you are feeling. Take care and look after yourself.

Loopy's allowed. It's a ridiculous state we all live in, hoping and temping and testing. What happened to the simple "YOu fall in love, you get married, you fall pregnant" we were taught at school?????

Thanks for the info PCM- makes me bloody glad I work from home if I've got to fit all this in. Turns out the local hospital doesn't do that sort of scanning (apparently they no longer do fertility treatment....) but the man I am meeting is the best fertility guy at our hospital. Complicated if I have to keep going there to see him and somewhere else to have scans...not forgetting the blood tests.

I'm assuming that the reason I'm having to do this is because they are trying to work out if I am likely to ovulate at all ever.

God, I've written loads- am I a bore?

Golly ladies- must be the weather making us all feel so blue. Hope things feel brighter soon for you all. Spent the day looking after fat cuddly 9 month old, which was a bit tough, natch. did have some good news though.

To continue the consultant/scan saga, spoke with surgery, who said they had not received letter from hospital. Spoke to consultant's secretary who told me that I needed Follicular tracking, and that I was meeting the man himself at my next appointment on 23rd and he would explain the next step. She even apologised as she thought someone had gotten back to me to explain all....

So ladies, follicular tracking, any idea????

Minxi- I really do know how you feel and I think all of us here do. I was definitely feeling that way for the past few days. I keep telling myself to be positive, but the dark thoughts creep in. I kept saying earlier this week that I just don't want to feel this way, but have no idea how to shake myself out of it. I guess that is why I am trying to DO something ie be a bit healthy, get a bit more excercise (totally scuppered by the pouring rain!) etc. The other thing that made me feel better is I went to see my cousin and his lovely wife who have 2 children after 2 heartbreaking miscarriages. I've found some friends to be really comforting as some have had similar experiences. And it helps to have you mn friends too!

it probably sounds really insincere, but I do understand days like that xx

Oh I know Awen thank you for your kind workds ...just having one of those days where I feel sad about the whole lot of it!

Good luck with your pregnancy and giving hope to us all xx

minxi - it can happen. Sometimes our bodies just need a kick start. I seriously didnt think that it had worked for me, and the consultant actually thinks that i ov'd without the clomid. Perhaps tho the clomid helped my body start iykwim.

I also managed to get my BMI under 25. I was on metformin tds which I am absolutely sure helped. Also lots and lots and lots of bding .. altho not lots and lots of foreplay!!

I really really didnt think it had worked tho and also tried to stop myself obsessing (I was getting pretty bad )

I really really really hope it works for you all. Sending lots and lots of baby dust.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Lulu - yes thread should still keep going!

...I know how you feel less healthy etc last week felt really positive but last couple of days just keep thinking I'm never going to get pregnant again - not sure why I feel that way just feeling a bit low...and just feel after 2.5 years why would it happen now with a stupid pill ?! Sorry sad moan over!

Hope everyone is ok

Hi all, just wanted to keep our little thread actived. PCM- I'm not saying a word... but good luck to all!

I am feeling better today. I am trying to be really healthy this week and am about to go for a run! I used to be an avid gym goer, but just haven't been that into it since the miscarriage. I've been feeling generally that I haven't been taking care of myself, so this is my new plan.

I am just hoping that all goes well this month. DH is supposedly off for the whole week right at the right time, but he may get called in. Here's hoping he is here all week- if only to keep me from totally spinning out!

Okay......I'll do a nice gentle, non-suspicious instead for you.

Oh PCM....do I have to do my hmmm-thing again???!!!!!!!
Be strong girl.

Lulu...nobody seemed to think my lighter AF was an issue...I just assumed it would change on clomid. I had my first lot in the days before MN so I just accepted everything and got on with it.
It also went lighter this time round as well...and again I took no notive of it as it had happened last time as well.

I now ask various questions to my fertility nurses and they just say that everyone is different!
Relaxed and reassuring most of the time!
Hopefully the magic pills will work soon for all you ladies.

Be strong PCM, you've got so much to live for!!!! Weight watchers is evil and it must be destroyed- although until weight gain a thing of the past, suspect it's a burden we all have to bear. Mean consultant told me to lose weight. Took her advice and am now same weight as last time I joined WW.And I work from home, with cupboards to raid whenever I want. Feeling a little proud. But back to my point. Be strong, hold on, you can do it!

Lulu sweetie. Being in the grey place sucks, but you'll come out the other side. We're all here for you. Good news about consultant and Clomid though. Still doing battle with mine.

As for me, CD19, nothing to report. No temp spike, no EWCM, not a chuffing clue.

Oh, and when I reminded DH about BD last night (have to warn him that it's coming up) he said "But I thought you weren't ovulating, so what's the point?"! Angry doesn't begin to describe what I am feeling about that.
