Hi cam,
im sorry to hear that you broke up with your partner i think u have done the right thing by separating right now..u really need your space.
i have a friend who was in exact position as you last time, she found out that her b/f had a teenage daughter and never told her but she end up marrying him anyway after sorting everything out.
re your child, pls dont worry too much cos' hopefully you'll find a good person who you can share your life with in the future and have children together.
btw Happy Birthday to you in two wks time
try not to cry k and do come and visit us on MN whenever you feel like it..

take care

thanks nandos,
how are things going with you?
Georgie2900,
thanks for your kind words. I am not afraid of being alone in fact of the matter is that he lied!!!! he has 2 children to different mothers? i am not jelous of that i am hurt that i was neva told. The one son that i do know i have known him from 2yrs old and we are close.
He has been selfish and there has been alot of things wrong but when your in love you think you should put up with s. I am in a good place right now and i know that someone special will come my way. For now i am going to think about me and what i have to do and goals i want to achieve. I have a good family and friends so i will be ok. Life is too short to be down and out, the sky is the limit so i am going to get mine....

nandos · 30/11/2008 13:04

hi cam, hope u r feeling better each day..
i also have a similar motto which is ' life is short, be happy'.
btw thx for asking..
i just found out last wk that i am pregnant, maybe around 5wks now. the 2nd cycle worked for me and i was shocked. dh swimmers were very poor when we got the results last wk so it was not expected at all.
i really hope this beanie sticks well cos' i really cant go thru another mc again..

well i gotta go now cos' need to do laundry and a friend is coming over so will chat with u again soon ..
take care and good luck with everyone else on clomid..

cam75 · 30/11/2008 18:17

sarashy · 30/11/2008 22:47

hey nandos congratulations huni! hopefully i will get there in the first couple of months too.
Had a bit of pain this wknd, which i assume is ovulation pain as its on the right side where they said my follicles were. Has anyone else had this? i sometimes get a bit but this has been for 2 days now.

nandos · 01/12/2008 11:26

thx sarashy hope you get pregnant within the 1st couple of cycles too.. if i may ask when did u take your last tablet? first cycle?
the pain is usually the ovary trying to gear up for ovulation or you might be ovulating. if the pain is too much, u might want to ring your consultant or something...2 days is still alright ut if more than 3 days i would be a bit concerned.

cam75 · 01/12/2008 13:05

lauralou darling,

how are you? how is ure bump? i am ok lovey.
I have God i have a good support team behind me so i am good. Yes i would love to have your addy as i doubt i will be here often.
Maybe he was not the one and that things won't happening because? who knows what the future holds but i know i will have my joy soon.

Mail me ure addy and we will talk more. Hugs and kisses xxxxxx

sarashy · 01/12/2008 16:55

hey nandos i took my last tablet a week last saturday, so im on cd14 now, and yes is first cycle. just done an opk so waiting for result looking good for today though. the pain this afternoon kinda went to a really sharp pain for about 5 mins like a stitch i suppose, but now it has gone so im thinking it must have been ovulation pain.
Hope ur not feeling too sick and enjoying being pg. It would be the perfect christmas / birthday present for me so heres hoping and praying.

lauralou1 · 01/12/2008 17:37

hi cam

my addy is [email protected]

nandos · 01/12/2008 17:41

well sarashy, that might be ov time so start getting busy .. will be thinking of you and hope your AF wont come this time ..
the funny thing is im having a stitch-like pain as well on my right side and it comes n goes. am not too worried abt ectopic preg cos' from wht i heard ep is very painful and the pain is intense n consistent.
anywayz will know soon if beanie is in the right place and that all is well in 2 wks time.
its my 1st so i dont really know wht is normal n what is not are u trying for your 1st as well?

sarashy · 01/12/2008 19:30

yes this will be our first when we finally get there. My friend has just got pg with her first and has had a few twinges but the dr said it was ok. maybe your just coming out in sympathy with me lol! im so hoping af does not come this month, trying not to get my hopes up though.

hi

Cam im sorry for your news but am glad you are feeling positive about it now. My motto is "everything happens for a reason" and i find it makes me more positive. Take care of yourself and enjoy life.

Nandos - glad all is ok and your scan is just round the corner which will put ya mind at rest.

sarashy - keep going and im sure you will get good news soon.

Im just waiting for test results now to find out what the problem is ( if there is one)

Fingers crossed for all

cxxx

Georgie2900 · 02/12/2008 19:41

Hey Guys....

Im back from Euro Disney, not exactly the romantic break lol.... for some reason i had a bleed, and it was only day 21in my cycle... has this ever happened to anyone before seems such a waste of a month.... only 4 months left on clomid..... Is it my period?? do you think i should call the hospital???

Feel really confused about the whole thing... not great hey....

Georgie2900 · 02/12/2008 19:43

Hi Cam....

I didnt mean you were jelous just wanted you to make sure you were doing the right thing... Lies are horrible and trust goes with lies been there...

Aslong as you know what your doing and are happy thats all that matters....

xxxxx

pinkie08 · 03/12/2008 15:14

Hi Georgie and all others,

I have started spotting yuck yuck yuck

i only have one ound of clomid left and am feeling very despondent. The gynae has agreed to refer me to the fertility specialist locally to home which is good but it can take ages to get an appointment or for the treatment to start.

I am so fed !!

Sorry for being so down

ray81 · 04/12/2008 15:50

Hi Pinkie so sorry that it seems to have failed again for you this month.

I feel like shit today i had a call from the Midwife to see how my pregnancy is progressing and i had to tell her that i had Miscarried she didnt even know the NHS is a sham, needless to say i got off the phone and was in tears so i now have the biggest headache and dont want to do anything. I was coping so well up until this FFS why so these things happen to me.

I realy have to accept that i am not going to have anymore children and just deal with it already although it hurts like hell.

pinkie08 · 04/12/2008 16:59

Hi Ray,

AM sending you ((hugs)) chocolate and a large gin and tonic.
Please dont cry anymore.

What can i say, i feel despondent and down but your situation puts it in perspective.

when do you start your tests, my gynae has agreed to refer me to a specialist which is good but who knows how long that may all take.

Lots of love and baby dust

sarashy · 04/12/2008 17:42

hi ray seems like ur having a crap time. as pinkie says it puts things into perspective.
Im having a crap day to. a girl at work last night told me she was pg by accident. Why does that happen to anybody but us. So there are now another 2 pg and both of them then decided to scan thier bellies with a machine we have at work, which just made me feel even worse.
Im now on my 2ww and am desperate to know if this clomid has worked. got to have my progesterone test on monday so fingers crossed those 2 little follicles got big enough to do anything.
good luck and prays to all

NewhereHelp · 06/12/2008 16:08

Sorry, really stupid question but just need some advice if poss. Ok so I'm CD 20 and I have noticed an increase in CM over the last couple of days, this is my first round of Clo so not sure if this is just normal. I have also had some crampy type pains too if that's any help?

Any advice would be welcome....

valz · 08/12/2008 10:48

hi newhere, i took my 1st course of clomid recently finished last pill on 14/11/08. round about days 20-25 i took bad cramps as well, and was askin what they were, one person thought i may have hit it lucky, ive read on other threads they are possibly ovulation cramps, if they were ive ovulated very very late cuz my specialist said it would be around day 10-15 so im a bit confused. today is day 36 counting day 1 as the first day i took clomid. im in the same boat, any info would be great?

pinkie08 · 08/12/2008 12:33

Hi Valz and Newhere

You should ov 10 -15 days after your last tablet.

CD1 is the first day of bleed not first day of clomid, unless they are one of the same

Valz day 36 is that a long cycle for you, pains could be a good sign.

If you have increased CM its a good sign for fertility as long as its Egg white in consistency.

I really hope that helps.

Georgie2900 · 08/12/2008 12:47

Valz, my goodness i would be soooo excited at the possibility id be pregnant if i was you day 36 wow thats a long cycle....

Id do a test.....

Im a bit confused myself now as i had a bleed day 21 and today is day 28 and no bleed rang hospital they advised me to hang as they never come accross this before.... trust it to be me that has the awkward cycles.....

pinkie08 · 08/12/2008 12:49

Georgie did you bleed alot, i had mid cycle spotting in my second month of clomid but it only lasted a day and was really light.

The gynae said not to worry

Georgie2900 · 08/12/2008 12:58

Really..... well it was average like a proper period...im sure that was my period for this month....
