TTC - Clomid Part 3

Hi all, is there a thread on secondary infertility? Not many people that you can talk to about struggling to conceive number 2.

Whoops - posted this on your old thread so here it is again

Hi everyone, do you mind if I join in?

An on my first month of clomid, cd16. Had 2 mcs, my last one being a mmc in august last year and i have a 4yr old ds. I have PCOS and endometriosis.

Hope you don't mind me jumping in but I am very confused about my cycle so wondered if anyone could enlighten me as to whether this normal when taking clomid:

So cd2 - started Clomid

cd3,4,5,6,7,8 - was a total bitch with lots of abdominal pain, headaches etc. Dh even told me he considered telling me it wasn't worth it as he didn't know who I had become but kept reminding himself it was the drugs.

cd9,10 - swi, attitude/personality back to normal.

cd12 - had some spotting so presumed o had come early, boobs hurt, swi

cd14 - swi as gp had advised to def swi on this day.

cd16 (today) - blood streak discharge when I wiped. Have taken myself off to the bedroom since 4pm as actually want to kill dh (I know i am being a total bitch hence removing myself from him) and have had period pains for the past couple of hours.

Any ideas? Thanks. Ok, willhave a proper read through the thread and try to familiarise myself with names and situations

stac reckon you should, just as you did last time! Our inspiration x

hi all

not been on for a couple of days as was feeling so in pain and this has really worn me down. however today is the first day of feeling better and this has helped me feel much better in myself aswell. I can walk again! Chiro today said i could try a little run at the weekend so that will also lift my spirits. Thanks all you ladies for thinking of me!!

Fairy - hope you had good day, think the new thread name sounds good. Glad the cons ringing you was nothing ominous
Becky - what a challenging job you have! Get well soon, my DD is full of cold at the moment.
Ven - I had reflexology, good for relaxing and managed to give me a natural period (without resorting to provera) but as yet hasn't helped with conception!

hello all, will try to catch up later but i can smell burning coming from the kitchen and fear for our tea!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Clomid IV - a New Hope (like the Star wars movies...?

Aww Becky I know there is this flu bug going round but also a stomach bug. I think it's just that time of year.

Ooh thread new name could be the one I suggested before - Clomid Part 4 - the experienced return...

Any other suggestion????

Hi all, stac I bet it feels amazing being able to feel your baby. Thanks for staying on here and keeping us updated, I love hearing peoples experiences.
Well I'm ill, yet again. I don't know if I've said before, but I support adults with learning disabilities, Autism and challenging behaviour in a day service. One of the men I support has been really ill for almost a month and nearly everytime he comes to the day service, I've been working with him so I really do think I've caught it off him as he is also off ill this week too. I've called the doc this time and he perscribed some anti-sickness tablets and some tablets to stop me going to the loo all the time.
Hope everyone is well.
Good luck to all ttc xxx

Hi all,

I finally got in contact today & they mixed up mine & DH's blood tests so we've both got to have them done again!!!! Nothing serious.

Currently on phone to BT while typing. Did get through 20 mins ago & they said no fault wwith the line so they're reinvestigating. Then phoned mum cos she'd rang my mobile while I was queuing & there was clicking noises as though someone had picked up the phone. How dodgy is that???? [hmm[

Had a lovely class trip today. Feel shattered.

Also had EWCM again today??? I'm on day 21 today...also feel very periody around my lower stomach (as I call it). One min I think I have it all sussed & they next mother nature just confuses me!

Sorry to hear about ms pops and about the panic. One thing is it's a good sign saying you are pg. I think the illness & catching things goes with our job. I'm still fighting this cold. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel with it (only blown my nose 3 times today lol )

How is everyone today?

hi girlies

Wow been busy on here lately.

Clure - Definately nice to have a rest from clomid but im always thinking if I had taken another 3 months would that have been when i fall preg. I hope your back is starting to feel better I suppose you cant really get into the swing of things if your in pain?

Stac - I did cross stitch a few yrs ago as my friend was preg so I done a nice teddie holding a banner and once she had given birth i stitched the name of bubs on there. She still has it in a frame in her bedroom and she is 6 now.
I bet you cant wait for your scan it will be great.

Ladyb - I have also thought i have this hostile womb thing but have not tried the preseed so I might get me some of that lol.

Deb - I keep having dreams about men from work ( sexy dreams at that ) and when i go in the next day and see them i get all embarrased. Not sure why this is happneing as am so in love with DH but i cant control my brain whilst asleep

pops - hope your nausea is not too bad but i have heard its a good sign of a strong pregnancy so all good.

ven - I had reflex at my local college last year so only cost £8 an hr and they go through your meds so you can mention about concieving so she can work on the right bits. It didnt make me fall but was relaxing so anything helps.

Well no news here im on cd19 and got quite a of bding in so fingers crossed. Ou chickens got eaten by a fox the other night so that was sad and a really blubbed but think my emotions are still high at mo.

Love and jaffa cake dust to you all
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Stac its a contagious (spelling??) mainly in children. It looks like their cheek has been slapped as it goes bright red. Can cause problems in pg up to 20 wks!
Ive had nausea but no sickness over the last week. I was so poorly last time (i had 2months off work) DH has ordered me a day on he sofa!
Jo prob is just a bug, hopefully be back to work tomorrow.
Agree, something funny for a name!!

stac tracy cox- UK/Aussie sex therapist? She's been on the telly telling us all what we should be doing lol!

popsy sorry you've been sick, ((()))). Hopefully it will pass really quick so keep yourself wrapped up and hydrated. Seems a bit sudden for bad MS? There is lots of cold/stomach bugs going round here. Lots of germ killing handgel when you back to work!

ven reflexology I hear is good, I do acupuncture but thats only because I had a horrendous experience with a reflexologist who didn't understand about loss/grief AT ALL and left me so upset she then said I wouldn't benefit from it as I was so upset, so didn't do it! So pick your practitioner carefully I think are the words of advice here! Not that acupuncture is bad, depends how little you like needles - they don't really hurt. And surprisingly I do relax there, the woman is really good to talk to and has a good comprehension of what I'm going through, so I always feel positive when I leave, even if I'm in tears when I go in.

Hi all. I'm off work today as been up since 2.30 being sick Not sure if MS or ill, feel rubbish now.
Glad all went well with MW Stac its lovely to hear, not boring at all

Thanks for asking how my mum is Jo and Stac. Mums feeling a little better thank you, still away to go, but on the mend

Ven, i would definately give reflexology a go. Not sure if it was the main difference with my BFP, but it certainly helped me relaxI had it for 3/4 months in total.

Hows work fairy and Clure? Ladybird i tried grapefruit juice, but got horrendous heartburn, but its supposed to work
Hope you had a lovely day at ds school Jo, sounds like fun. Thanks for your email, lovely of you

Had a bit of a panic yesterday. One of my kids at school got slap cheek, its not good to get if pg. Asked my TA, whos alao my friend to work with this child in the role play she asked why? after several exchanges, i just whispered "I'm Pregnant!" she instantly blubbed and ushered him out the class. First person i've told, except you lovely ladies.Called MW this morning and she said its only dangerous if you contract it and adults don't normally get it. Phew!!

looks like we need a new thread soon ladies. Did we decide on a name???

lots of super powered bady dust xxxxxx

ladybird you can insert preseed up to 15 mins before bd, so you can put it in before you go to bed?

Go Stac we'll be calling you Tracy Cox soon! Lovely news you can feel baby! Only a month till your next scan!

fairy I think you need a holiday! I think stac is right, that call is probably about info for you, but yes, its hard not to worry.

clure how is your back tday?

Got both DH and DS back to work/school this week so at least I can watch what I want on the telly! I have officially joined POAS (Pee on a Stick) Anonymous. Must stop it, its still a bit too early to tell. Going into school this afternoon to help with 'mix up afternoon' where they mix up nursery, reception and year 1 into groups and they have different things to do/make. Helps the children get to know each other and the other teachers.

Hello to everyone else, hope you're all well

Fairy I am sure the message is something small, not something to worry about, they call without thinking the effect it has on us to get the missed call! I am the worlds biggest worrier, so know how you are feeling, hope you have managed to get in touch with them today. Sounds like good news about BT though?

Stac how exciting feeling the baby move! Congratulations.

Peju sorry the MS has got you but like you said, at least its for a good reason!

Ladybird and Debice I know what you mean about not feeling like BDing at the right time or it being too much pressure for DH/DP. I don't tell DH for similar reasons. I agree about not understanding men, they want it all the time and then when you are offering it on a plate its too much pressure...!

Hi everyone else.....
Am wondering about accupuncture or reflexology, not sure about having needles stuck in me but it seems to work for a lot of people. Don't really have the money but think I could just about squeeze it in if I am careful....Any thoughts/advice?

I can't work men out - they moan when they don't get it enough & when we want it loads they moan we only want them for one thing. I was under the impression they only want us for one thing (then thye cooking, cleaning & ironing at other times lol).

I've now got myself into a state about what the cons secretary is gonna tell me. it's prob something to do with scans but always the pessimist me!

Ha ha i wont tell you to bugger off stac good idea though, I prefer to use durex tingle but thats no good when TTC, i do the same as you did and no longer tell DP when its the right time of the month to be BDing as he has told me that it puts to much pressure on him to perform and then he thinks im only wanting it for one reason...well he's kind of right he he
