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

hey littlestar thanks for your good luck wishes. Af hasnt arrived but did a test this morning as was a bfn. keeping my fingers crossed its to early to tell. But also could be a good thing if not pg that af is late, as my gynae app is next wed and would have been to late to start my first round of clomid if i had started today. so still keeping my fingers crossed.
And dont worry about the blood results till its explained to you. i had a major stress cause my oestrogen levels where low when i got my results and indicated id hit menopause i was well gutted. Me and Dh even started talking about adoption. Was glad i went to see the dr who reassured me.

Congrats Haylz lets hope that libe gets stronger.

fingers crossed and baby dust to all.

Hi all,
I decided I'd better join in rather than just keep snooping! I'm 30,have PCOS and am currently taking progesterone to force a period before using 100mg of Clomid as 50 mg didn't work on 2nd round. I also take metformin to help with PCOS but in my experience it's not that useful! I really felt I should respond to you giselle - I was on clomid before my DD in 2004. It didn't actually work then but ovarian drilling did. Anyway, when I was having scans the nurse (yes the NURSE) had the cheek to tell me that she had PCOS and not to bother with treatment cos it doesn't work and I should adopt like her. I was devastated and on reflection should have reported her. Anyway, she also conducted my 12 week scan a few months later which I thought was probably humbling enough although I don't suppose she meant any harm her words cut deep at the time. Don't listen!!!

sarashy · 21/08/2008 20:15

forgot to say Bad Bad thing happened today though. i got a needle stick injury off a dirty needle at work, and have been told not to have unprotected sex untill i get the all clear and that if i am pg then ill have to start on profalatic drugs. which could harm the baby. still hopefully low risk n theyll rush the results through, but im still pooing myself.

Giselle21 · 21/08/2008 21:56

Thanks MWmum. Ur right it is a cheek!Has anyone developed a loss of taste with these tablets? Things dont taste right. Got my emergency scan tomoz so will hopefully see if ive produced good eggs and apparently they can tell you when you should be ovulating. Baby dust to all. xxxxxxxxxxxx

Vikks · 21/08/2008 22:56

Haylz,
Fantastic news! Hope Mondays test is a nice dark line!

MWmun, welcome. Hope your successful this time, I'm also waiting to start taking my higher dose of 100mg, should be in about a week. Fingers crossed for us both.

littlestar08 · 22/08/2008 09:30

hey debz

this was my first round of clomid 50mg i had my blood done on day 22 coz day 21 was a sunday, i dont know if this makes a difference though?

I know this may sound crazy but a had pains in stomach around day 21 and felt I o'd but i guess i was wrong...

Am not handling things at all i started crying bout three times yesterday 4 no reason...the worst one was the last time wen v went to bed...i was overcome with emotion in the middle of making love...my mind just started thinkin whats the point if i cant have children...DH was a dianmond though...i guess i just need to relax?

Goodluck and loads of baby dust to all...

Giselle21 · 22/08/2008 10:09

Mornin girls had some good news for once! Just been for my folicle trackin scan and i have produced two lovely big follicles which according to my doc said that they are ready to rupture in the next 24 hours. She said there was a strong possibility of concievein and that i may have twins! so me and the DH will be very busy this weekend. Fingers crossed and everything else for test date in two weeks! Am startin to be scared now tho! Littlestar, hope u are feeling better today huni... just keep ur chin up it IS possible. Mega buckets of baby dust to all especially Littlestar. xxxxxxxx

littlestar08 · 22/08/2008 10:14

Thats really good news Giselle...Am feelin better well think I am...but everytime i think I am I have a crying fit

At least you know you have a chance but for me my progesterone to low....so I shud embrace that fact rather than live in hope coz it will hurt loads more later...

Hi ladies,

Ive been away most of this week, been off sick with Tonsilitis!

I have been feeling pregnant all week but I know I'm not as its too early so it must just be the side effects.

Congratulations cheekymonkey, lets hope you are the first of many of us to have bundles of joy.

Giselle - How exciting, get at it and dont let your husband out of your sight. get those pillows ready for afterwards, dont give them little blighters any chance of getting away!!

MWmum · 24/08/2008 22:13

Hi all!

Debz - that sounds nasty! I sometimes think my body's having a laugh too!

Sarashy - sorry you're back at the top of the old rollercoaster again. Drives you mad eh?!

littlestar - know what you mean, I always spend my 2 week wait glued to websites reading anout early pregnancy symptoms even tho I could recite them back!

On a higher note, I can honestly say I know lots of people who have really struggled to conceive but barely any that have not got there in the end. Let's try and keep each other sane over however log it takes!

I'm so sick of piling on weight thru PCOS seeing as only remedy is the pill LOL!
most annoying thing is I now look bllody pregnant thanks to my crazy hormones!

marcy08 · 25/08/2008 12:18

Hi Girls,

Hope everyone is well, Im due on my period in about a week , finished first round of clomid two weeks ago, and for the last week or so i have suffered with really bad backache, only time i normally get back ache is if i have lifted anything heavy, very unusual for me, can clomid give you back ache, its really bad, and im so emotional too, i cry at anything.

Sending lots of baby dust to you all.

Love Marcy xxx

Giselle21 · 25/08/2008 14:58

Hiya girls been at my mums wedding all weekend so not been on. Have been at 'it' this weekend. Started to have mild cramps and havein been feelin sicky all weekend. Almost felt like i was gunna come on but as fast as it came it went. Trying to not bulid my hopes up but as we all know that is impossible! if what the doc said was right my two good follicles will have burst and my little eggs will have now been out and about since fri/sat. So got a long two weeks now till i can test. With these tablets has anyone has mild aches around their lower abdo when passing urine?? its abit like back ache but then it aches at the front. Random i know but just curious to what everyone else feels like????? Hope u are all well. Baby dust to us all xxxxxxxxxx

debz9384 · 25/08/2008 22:55

hi giselle aw betcha u ad fun ;) hopefully u r already preg a get the dull ache aswell had it all day grrrrrrrrr was the wedding good??
xxxxxxxx

skates77 · 26/08/2008 09:28

Hi Giselle,

Yes I have had the dull ache at the front too, thought it was just me leavin it too long to wee!

I feel totally different today though, almost normal which I am guessing means that I am not pregnant this month, I am booked in for my bloods on 1st September, so hopefully I will have ovulated. Although I dont know if I would rather not ovulate or ovulate and have no pregnancy? its strange to think what might be going on inside!

My friend is being induced with her twins today so at least i will be an auntie by the end of the day which is making me very happy right now.

Baby dust and love to all xxx

skates77 · 26/08/2008 09:33
