1st cycle of clomid.. TTW buddies please!!

[BlippyMoose26]

Hi everyone, so a little long winded but bare with me. Really looking for some ladies to get through this TWW with.
Im on my 1st cycle of clomid, i ovulate on my own but doc prescribed 50mg days 3-7 to give me a bit more of a chance after almost 1 year of trying.
Usual cycles are like clockwork so havent really bothered to keep track on OPKS or temp, but i do like to keep an eye on my CM and use an app to give me a rough idea of dates etc.

Heres my little journey so far... noramlly have a 30day cycle and LP of 13 days,a few normal symptoms and a few not...

CD15/O day ... judging by the cramping and (sorry tmi) ton of wet clear cm i O´d today
CD16/1DPO ... still a little EWCM more pronounced ovary cramps(not normal) and i could sleep literally ALL day
CD17/2DPO ... still SOOO tired, CM today is creamy and slightly yellow tinged ovary cramps quite bad today on and off plus some mild backache
CD18/3DPO ... slight wave of nausea that lasted maybe 2 mins in the AM, slight backache still and CM still yellow tinged but turned more sticky and thick but turned more creamy in the PM, feeling hungry today for junk food, cramps still there plus today my sides ache too and i swear i felt a slight bubbling/flutter (yes i know i know too early for preg symptom) slight wave of nausea again in PM for couple mins only
CD19/4DPO ... AM was sticky thcik CM again, by the afternoon it was back to stretchy but still yellow tinged (no infection no itching tests all clear) i had the tinest stringy slither of blood in my CM in the evening and it was almost a white version of my EWCM ???? still feeling hungry and OMG i could bite anyones head off iff they even look at me (haha) random right nipple is sensitive this evening too, usually i never get sore BBs as i dont really have anything there haha !!

Currently 5DPO (just its 00:14 here lol) so 9 days to expected AF...

Anyone else experiencing the same or similar with clomid cycles, yes i know its still very early for them to be definate pregnancy symptoms but surely its a bit late for Ov symptoms at predicted 5DPO .... Who wants to symptom spot and drive themselfs crazy with me HAHAHA !!!

Anyone out there 😆

Hey! I’m 3dpo on my first round of letrozole, so similar but not the same! My LP is normally 9-11 days. I also did a trigger shot so I’ve been getting positive hcg tests… very bittersweet as after more than 2 years of TTC, it’s the first time I’ve ever seen two lines on the hcg tests. Hope you’re keeping well x

Awww thanks so much for replying, yeah im really getting impatient now too im 5DPO possibly 6DPO ... not had many symptoms today a little bit of nausea this afternoon again but literally last 5 mins still as snappy as ive been all week at silly things too !!! Just done my usual CM check and it seams to be yellowish and back to stretchy but thick lol i just cant get my head around how quickly everything changes.

Have you had any symptoms yet even tho were still MEGA early !!!

If I’m honest I try so hard not to symptom spot 😖 6 days after trigger I’m still testing positive hcg so any symptoms would most likely be cause of that anyways?

how are you doing?

Me too I tell myself every month ... NO SYMPTOM SPOTTING...but who am i kidding haha !!

I'm now 7/8DPO ... had an awful ache right deep in my hip night before last and it actually took ages to get comfy in bed ...other than that i've had a weird pain/cramp to the left of my belly button still got the white stretchy CM and a sensitive right nipple lol .. not sure why only one but ya .. our bodies are weird !!

You got anymore symptoms hun

Just popping on to say that I was also prescribed Clomid even though I ovulate myself. Doctor said it was giving me "more darts for the dartboard!"

It worked for me on month 2 :D

Best of luck!

Aww that's given me so much hope !!! Did you have any symptoms at all.. also congrats

Thank you!!

I didn't have any obvious symptoms before testing, no.

One thing I did get was a slight sore throat/ congestion, and I felt a little rundown, but it could have just been a mild cold.

I then got cramping/ pulling from about 4 weeks and the nausea kicked in at 6 weeks !

Thanks for sharing .... 👍 feeling a bit blerugh today but guess that could be anything .. 6 days can't come soon enough haha

So thought id update a little bit of my DPO since 1st post...

5DPO ... Slight wave of nausea in afternoon after food, mild dull ache in the middle low in my stomach
6DPO... dull ache still there, but not like usual AF cramps. stretchy white cm still tehre more white than yellow tinged today though. tongiht in bed my left hip was really aching, like right deep down in the bone if that makes sence...took a while to get to sleep cuz of it
7DPO ... most symptoms still same, random fluttery feeling like a sharp vibration over right ovary area lasted maybe 5 or 6 seconds, im extra tired today but that could be because of last nights hip drama... and ive noticed my face is like SUPER dry ad flakey... normally i suffer with oily skin and usually by now my skin has started to break out ready for AF .. other than a few blemishes here and there no usual breakout yet. PM i checked CP and CM and noticed the tinest hint of pink tinged creamy cm... i really had to look and would have missed it if i wasnt checking i think as nothing when i wipe, (Implantation bleed perhaps)
8DPO ... i caved and tested OBVIOUSLY it was a BFN... also we BD last night.. now after googling if its safe im really scared i could have dislodged anything that may have been implanting , theres a big bag of mixed results on google as to wether or not its good or bad, ufff goggle why do i do it to myself !!!! Haha ... anyways so far today ive got horrific lower backache, like ive been lifting weights all night haha and my tummy feels sore too, hard to describe but i wouldnt say its crampy just sore like ive been hit in the stomach with something, few odd twinges here and there on my sides but mainy the ache.

hows everyone else doing ???

I’m now 8 days post trigger shot and 7dpo, and still getting a vvvfl on easy@home hcg tests! I wonder if this shows what a slow metabolism I have as I would expect to get a bfp yet!
im still not symptom spotting but am very tired, and struggling to sleep. That could very much be my pcos coming to haunt me.
how are you feeling @BlippyMoose26

Morning hun, managed not to cave nd test agin today knowing its far too early but had some trouble getting to sleep last night felt really sicky... like a proper gurgling stomach sticky. Could be the tea and choc biscuits before bed but don't usually get that.

Not much else to report so far today as I'm only just up but I'll keep your posted throughout the day,

Cm seemed to dry up a little for a few hours yest evening but still getting a stretchy yellowy white is ewcm when I check. Just not as much as before so I'm really panicking I'm out this month !! Uffff

Morning @BlippyMoose26
No point in calling yourself out until AF comes, also without getting too hopefully… mission impossible really.
How many dpo are you now?
I’ve got tingly crampy feelings going on in my lower tummy region and I’m hoping/praying that’s a good thing… but not an unusual thing for me.

I'm 9DPO today so still quite early i know ... i've had some backache again today and feel a bit cramps lower in my pelvic region .. really feeling tired today so all good signs i guess i seem to get more symptoms in the evenings rather than the mornings though so we will see x

UPDATE 10DPO

Couldn't sleep so caved ...

Is this pink enough not to be an evap ?

If you read it in the correct timing it shouldn’t be an evap @BlippyMoose26 ?
definately 2 beautiful lines there - congratulations!!
have you morning rested too?
on the contrary, I had a temp dip today so I’m probably out.

It came up within first 2 mins so yes was within the time frame. I just can't believe it !! It just doesn't feel real .. this was at 7.30 this morning and it was my last cheapie test so I'm planning on getting some on my way home from work today to keep an eye on line progression until AF due date on Sat .. Will probably schedule a doctors appointment for Monday.. I literally have no idea what to do or where to go from here ... perhaps need to think about some vitamins I guess...

Your not out till AF i'm keeping everything crossed for you !! Please keep me posted. X

Super duper happy for you @BlippyMoose26 !! I guess you’re a testament to the positive effects of clomid too! Wishing you a healthy line progression!

Thank you so much, cannot believe 1st time round ... praying for a sticky bean .. wishing you all the luck fir your bfp soon x

Congrats OP, how wonderful!

@BlippyMoose26 congratulations! I was coming to find a TWW group but youve already had your good news!

I am DPO1 but fresh off a miscarriage (been naughty and haven't waited for my period). My only symptoms before my BFP last time was feeling hungover (i had stopped drinking to conceive) and a lack of PMS 😅

Hoping my body is primed for pregnancy so to speak!

Thank you so much ladies Iits going to be a while to take this all in ... I don't know where to start the TWW was bad enough now all i can think is OMG what if beany doesn't stick uffff ... im a nervous wreck !!

Please feel free to use this thread those as there's a few still waiting for their BFP ill keep popping in x

Does this progressions look okay to you ..

Top is 10DPO FMU
Middle is a 1 hour hold on 11DPO
Bottom is 12DPO FMU

Doctors on Monday and I'm scared to take a digital yet incase Mt HCG isn't quite ready yet haha

Hi @BlippyMoose26 , try not to worry about line progression until at least 14DPO as your body is in early stages of doubling hcg every day - the tests are very sensitive but cannot give you a definitive answer. The lines are there and are beautiful 😍 and I hope they keep getting darker and darker x
