Hi

Not sure if this has been done before but am due to start clomid next month and could do with some happy stories. Please let me know why you were prescribed it and how long it took to get pregnant.

Many thanks

littlestar08 · 20/08/2008 14:18

midgetgem19 · 20/08/2008 14:26

have you had any test before you got put on clomid i know what you mean about the clomid i read so many success stories about taking it on the first time and when i came on i was so disheartned this month im just gonna take it in my stride bit annoyed with the doctor thou cause im not been checked while on it

littlestar08 · 20/08/2008 14:30

i had blood tests to check hormone levels...over few years...3 ultrasounds...1 MRI scan, and bone density scan...had a 21 day blood test while taking clomid on monday which means its preggy testing time on monday to come!

peju25 · 20/08/2008 14:51

thanks for your messages - guess it is just a waiting game for these test dates to come thru - ive waited this long i guess a little longer wont hurt!!

sarashy · 20/08/2008 19:43

My af is due tomorrow so fingers crossed it doesnt come then i dont have to start my first round of clomid. I cant see it happening but theres always that little bit of hope.

littlestar08 · 20/08/2008 21:18

good luck sarashy, let us know how you get on...lots of baby dust to everyone XxX

Hi Everyone,
I think I may be coming obsessive about ovulation tests and temperature taking! Tell me I'm not the only one. My Doc has told me not to take my temp but I can't stop, I've been doing it for 15 months. Maybe I'll stop when I start ovulating. Come on Clomid! Third time lucky?

Wallacex- 109 Wow! Were you put straight on to 100mg? I thought everyone went on 50 to start with.

littlestar- I feel your frustration, good luck for Monday. I agree totally with what you were saying about waiting time and trying to get appointments. My husband and I were so pissed off we've gone private, it's outrageously expensive but I don't think I could have coped with another secretary tell me I'll have to wait 6-8 weeks! Nobody understands how consuming and heart breaking this period of my life is. Thank God for all the ladies here x

Sack loads of baby dust for all!

littlestar08 · 21/08/2008 09:30

I cant explain how it feels letting of steam on here..before i was takin it out on DH who has been less then impressed...

The situation is sad coz even DH doesnt seem to understand the emotional strain i am under...he cracked a joke about me going through puberty and i put phone down on him coz i hurt and i thought he was having a dig at me...

vikks- thanks for the goodluck, hopefully i may have some good news to share but i dont really feel any different. The sad thing is because i have not had that many periods i am quite unsure of the symptoms i get before i start them so dont know what preggy symptoms will feel like I always wished i could be one of those ppl who dont even realise there preggy and baby pops out out of nowhere haha!

Who else is waiting to test and when?

Giselle21 · 21/08/2008 11:00

Mornin littlestar. I dont test for a few weeks. My last period was 5 waeeks and one day so that makes my test time around the 11th of sept. The week before tho im on holiday so im hopin il get caught then when im all relaxed..... or tryin to relax haha. Can i ask a personal question tot he girls? Last night i ... i mean me and the DH had the most un loving sex ever. Its only to get the sperm from p[oint A (which id him) to point B (which is me) I can help but feel this is an awful way to concieve.

Was upset last night aswell coz someone who has had failed attempts a gettin pregnant or M/C told me that clomid doesn't work and there is no point me going on it. Was devasted.... this seemed like my last hope and because it didnt work for her she was trying to dapen my spirits. I thought it was nasty coz if ur really tryin to concieve you know what heart ache you go through and she didnt have a care in the workd what her words were doing to me. I felt like sayin she should come on mumsnet and have a look at the fabulous women on there that have had babies with clomid.
Sorry for the morbid text... it just upset me. Bucket loads of baby dust to all xxxxxxx

littlestar08 · 21/08/2008 11:09

Hey Giselle...

dont lose hope its true clomid does not work for everone but every1s circumstances are different...relax and take it all in your stride, try not to think about it too much!

About your personal question my DH cracked a joke about it bein such a job and were only on our first cycle... its sad coz it does start to put you of...also me and DH were arguing a few days before and i was desperate to make up with him because i knew we had a job to do....there are so many restrictions and time limits and then u get the teenagers who have unprotected sex once and get pregnant and abort there babies...

lets all promise to be positive and be there for eachother...

BABYDUST all around....

Giselle21 · 21/08/2008 11:50

Thanks huni... needed that. My DH said he felt used haha bless him! Fingers crossed and i promise to relax and just concerntrate on being healthy and happy! Babydust kisses to all xxxxxxx

Giselle21 · 21/08/2008 12:03

Littlestar chockie is the best....although at the min its tastes funni to me.....another one of clomids great symptoms!Not sure about ur levels...can you not look it up on the net?? xxxxxxxx

littlestar08 · 21/08/2008 15:45

good luck haylz...throwing loads of baby dust ur way hun!

Giselle lookin on the net it seems my level is low but i dont know whether i can stil concieve...??i cant find much but is there a chance that my cycle is longer or shorter hence the reason for the low level...

Am just clutching at straws really...if anyone could bring me back to reality i would appreciate it!

peju25 · 21/08/2008 16:09

hayz - fingers crossed for you

Littlestar08 - why dont you call your doc/consultant and ask them what going on it will put your mind at rest - from what i have read this does sound low but you would need to speak to doc and maybe get put on higher dose - dont give up though strange things happen and maybe you could have ovulated later than 21 days if you have been really irregular before??
