When to expect period - Provera

[EllaMenoPea]

As above really. I finished 5 days of Provera on Saturday to induce a bleed to start Clomid. When should I expect a period? Just wondering if anyone has any experiences. Google is telling me lots of different times. Getting impatient

Evening all, lovely to see you here on this very happy day. Everytime I was feeling a bit grrr at work today (big project, lots of deadlines and stress flying around) I thought of Moomin's BFP and it made me smile. Very glad you're getting scanned so soon Moomin. I bet you'll have taken a few more tests just to make sure between now and then!

Ella hurray, glad your clinic are getting sorted. Do you have any dates?

Amy don't forget your CM will be affected by the clomid. Not long now til your CD21 test.

Eskimo so nice to see you. Have you bought any baby bits yet? You need to link to those comfy maternity trousers! I'm contemplating buying a pair for the Menopur round; because I've had to put on so much weight to qualify for NHS treatment I'm at the very limit of the work clothes that still fit me. A bit of Menopur bloating and I'll be in pyjamas!

Happy holidays Boggle!

I'll take my first tablet tomorrow. As you say Eskimo, it will be good to get going again. DH and I are going on a citybreak this weekend (he won hotel vouchers at work yay) so I'll be distracted from the symptoms. But on Monday I predict I'll be eating everything edible and non-edible in my office, and going stir crazy.

Hi ladies, I'm cd19, and I was aware that clomid could dry you up, weirdly, I've never been so moist (sorry for tmi).

Cd21 bloods I'm going to go for on Monday which be cd22, after my night shift still annoyed that I've been put on nights from Saturday, don't know how long for, it's going to make DTD difficult if I'm not successful this cycle. I hope that I am successful because I can't be bothered working nights at the moment, ive tooh much on!

I think that I ovulated on the 9th May, had some extremely strange tummy pains (left and central) for 24 hours between Monday night and Tuesday night, since Wednesday afternoon there has been a change in CM. Plus I've had really bad constipation, which I dont usually struggle with that often, although that could be due to a change in the weather; sweating more and drinking the same as I would in the winter.

I'll have a look at the link you sent me & see what it says!

Hi beautiful ladies, I'm back from Menorca. Waiting for Chinese take out to arrive as we don't have much food around the house!

moomin I am so so thrilled for you! Congratulations! Fingers crossed for 27th!

Finished provera a couple of days ago so just waiting for good old AF to arrive so I can star popping clomid for the 4th time...

How are you moomin?? How's DH?

And everyone else? Has AF arrived boggle?

How you getting on robber? Hope you're not feeling too crappy.

Good luck for Monday amy

Hope you two are good too eskimo

Nothing yet ella it won't turn up for a few days. It's been 7-10 days before she's turned up previously.

What's next for you ella? Have you tested anymore?

moomin how are things?

amy and robber how are we getting on?

boggle just plodding along with it really, nothing much to report. I've had the occasional tummy pain but nothing major. Cd21 today, going for my bloods in the morning xx fingers crossed they'll say that I've ovulated, I think that I have because my cm has followed the right pattern for a cycle & it's rarely done that in the past. 8 days until AF is due x

Hey Ella and Boggle thanks for asking after me. I'm fine, I think. My boobs are enormous and slightly achy and I've been very tired, but apart from that it's business as usual (I do have stomach pains /sensations much of the time, but I think that's normal). As anticipated very early pregnancy is a stressful time (being a barren means you are acutely aware of all the things that can go wrong and the scary statistics) but as with the treatment I'm just taking it one step at a time. I also believe in the power of positive thinking - it's got to help, so I'm trying to 'enjoy' being pregnant as well. DH is cool as a cucumber will all of it.

I hope AF doesn't keep you waiting too long Boggle and that you get to the next step soon Ella - I'm rooting for you both.

When are you going to test Amy?

Glad I helped you to get through a stressy day Robber and hope you're not too hungry (fanjo bullets made me ravenous the first time round). I did do some more tests a couple of days after my BFP and started getting paranoid as I was worried the line wasn't as dark, so I'm stepping away from those for now and will do a CB digital next week to see if I get a 2-3 weeks reading.

Had a lovely weekend - I love blue sky and sunshine coupled with sensible temperatures

moomin I'm not sure, when do you think that I should test? Ovia says Friday but my AF is only due Monday (if I even get a 28 day cycle) CM has increased over night (been on nights) so it continues to look positive really xx

Increased CM sounds good Amy and a positive attitude on top is fab Ovia always seems to be a little early with its suggested test days, so I would go for Monday. I'm very glad I didn't test early as it saved so much grief and upset. You can distract yourself all weekend knowing you can test on Monday.

moomin I'm think your right, ovia suggests to test on 12po. I'm going to try and stick it out until my 14po. I must say, this is the longest ever 22 days of myour life!!!! Lol xx I don't know how anyone else feels about it!

As I mentioned, I'm now on nights with my job & this morning I went for my cd21 bloods. When I got home I very nearly puked at the smell of sweat from my dog- he absolutely stinks!!! I know it's been hot and stuff so maybe there is a rational explanation, but I couldn't help but think "I wonder if it's a sign". Tried to forget about it while I slept today when I woke up it was the first thing I could smell and he wasn't even in the room!

Anyway, I'm trying my hardest not to symptom spot, wish me luck!

Evening everyone

Moomin great to hear it is all going well. Have you joined the 'pregnancy after infertility' thread? It is supposed to be really helpful. Sore boobs is a great sign of a strong PG according to my friends!

Ella any news or dates from you?

Boggle you're a few days ahead of me. Hope AF shows soon so you can crack on.

Amy sounds hopeful. Good luck with CD21! Let us know the results.

Wave to Eskimo.

AFM, I keep oscillating between feeling nauseous or feeling like I'm starving hungry. I slightly prefer the nausea. Oh well, hopefully I'll get upduffed this cycle and all of this feeling rubbish can be practice!

Can we all tell my uterus to hurry up and get rid of my lining cos I wana start clomid!!!!! So bored of waiting!

Well it seemed to work, AF is on her way, might be another couple of days but she is coming! Yay! Thanks ladies!

Best of luck boggle with the commencement of clomid xx

Thank you amy need this to work!!

Yay Boggle hurrah for your uterus shedding its lining Haha things you never think you'll ever say to another person

I'm watching that thread Robber but too scared to join at the moment. There are a couple of people I 'know' from other threads in there which is cool.

In bed catching up on The Archers - anyone else a fan? I can't listen at the moment without shouting 'oh shut up Pat'

Hi all

Amy and Boggle so glad things are happening.

Moomin I've never tried the Archers, but I'm totally addicted to the Kermode and Mayo film podcast, which is sort of a soap opera...

I'll be offline for the next 10 days or so, I just wanted to let you know so you didn't think I'd abandoned you. I'll be back once I've survived this next week of work (big deadlines) and then had a short trip away with DH. Lots of luck to everyone - hopefully by the time I'm back there will be some more BFPs!

If it's alright to have a moan.......

But I just thought I'd say that I feel absolutely awful. I've had diarrhea all day, followed by this dull cramp/heavy feeling down below. I've had moments where my eyes have been dizzy & I've also felt spaced out.

Last night in work for about 30 minutes all I could taste was a bloody/metallic taste. Trying my hardest not to symptom spot but I feel absolutely dreadful.

Not been able to quench my thirst today, and despite having 6 hours solid sleep following my night shift (8am-2pm) I've felt knackered all day

Oh Amy that sounds rubbish. Hugs. Make sure you rest up (or at least try!) it must be super hard to not symptom spot, especially as those are classics. I hope you feel better soon. When is test day for you? Xx

Ovia is saying Saturday, but I might hold out for Monday with it being 14dpo xxx

Well I've just been told that my progesterone score was a crap practically none existant 1.2. Absolutely gutted.

Don't give up yet amy. Remember eskimo ovulated late and got a low progesterone score and she's now pregnant! Hugs for you xxx

I feel that if I have ovulated late, I've missed the boat with DTD, as we've not been doing it as regularly as we were . I suppose that we could just carry on regardless though

Robber we'll miss you - hope you meet your deadline and enjoy your trip

Amy I agree with Boggle - stay positive!

Have the painters arrived Boggle?

Ella I hope you're OK

Waves to Eskimo

Just annoying browny/red discharge for me so getting there slowly!

Amy you may still have sperm hanging about! All it takes is 1! Hold out to next week and see what your test says.
