HOPE YOUR ALL OK

how are you cam dungungirl

Hi everyone,

I've been reading the thread and there's some lovely success stories, can i join in? I'm on day 20 of my 1st clomid cycle, I haven't had any periods since stopping the pill over 2 years ago to ttc so gynae started me on the clomid. I go for my blood test tomorrow to see if I have ovulated but I'm getting really sore boobs, headaches and lower tummy ache already?!? Is this a clomid symptom any of you has had in the second part of cycle?? surely can't be a pg symptom this early?

gemmaluisa, i'm on second month of clomid just waiting for af now, i get all those symptoms and unfortnately it can be a side effect of the clomid! but you could be one of the lucky ones and actualy be pg it differenet for all of us. good luck. x

hi numpty1972 thanks for replying!! Been trying loads while waiting for my fertility appointment, agnus castus, acupuncture, acupressure, diet and lifestyle changes, my system seems to have shut down so I was hoping this would work but I had a weird reaction to clomid and my eyesight went completely blurred on the left side so the doc said I can't take it again (sad). Really hope it has worked as now have to wait for another appointment, no idea what they'll try next time!! x

lauralou

I am here!!!!!

How are you? I am good thanks.
Knocking on 10 weeks now....so, so far so good.

hey lauralou.....
how are you? dungungirl wow 10wks already????

Yup time sure flies cam75 !

I am waiting for it to fly past 12 weeks so that hopefully the indigestion and nausea settle down!

Saying that though this week the nausea is a little better...just the indigestion that is really bothering me!

Dungungirl,

i am waiting!!!! my boobs are so sore and i am cramping really badly??? but my tummy is not bloated? not sure what to feel as i get these pains all the time??? friday is test day!!!

Hi Cam

the side effects you get with Clomid are so annoying as they are similiar to the 1st few weeks of pregnancy it has you fooled.
I hope you get the BFP on Friday, keep us informed.
Were your side effects any worse on 100mg???

clairebear88,
most def, i have really bad hot flushes worse in fact no i am on 100mg. I feel like i could walk around naked. But now the wheather has changed i will have to becareful or else i will get the flu.
As i have pcos the waiting for af to arrive is the same to what i am feeling now so i won't really know the differnce not unless i start throwing up!!!

How are you doing?

it test day on wednesday i think!! last month i was 3 days late, so i'm going by those dates and wed is exactly 4 weeks since start of af. got all the usual symptoms when af is coming, basicaly the same symptons of early pregnacy, i'm pretty sure it will be yet another bpn!!! for a change though i havn' had nausea this month, which i must admit was quite nice, i'm just constantly tired and want to sleep all the time, don't want to waste my clearblue test this month gonna just get a cheap one instead. keep well all and fingers crossed to everyone.

hicam

I feel tired and my boobs are really heavy and sore, but it is the same when af is due? i am cramping like mad not sure what to expect?

Of course you are going to be nervous and checking i think i would be worrying too. You will be fine darling just enjoy it.

hi cam, goo luck for friday! fingers crossed for you.

Hi
Cam - Im fine thanks I was meant to start 4th round of 50mg last thurs but forgot on thur and fri nite so am taking it days 4-8 not 2-6 this month. I hope it still works coz i have read up and alot of different docs say different days to take it anyway. Gonna increase to 100mg next month ( last month )
Lauralou - I can imagine how your feeling and cant believe its happening to you after all the months of let downs. Im sure all will be fine and you will be blossoming soon.

Good luck to us all

hi clairebear

thanks hunni hopefully you will concieve on 100mg i did on my first round of 100 and my consultant said i wouldnt as i am over weight and have pcos but it just shows you how wrong doctors are

take care and baby dust to you all

clairebear88,

how are you? gosh last cycle? how many did they say you could have? mine is six and and am waiting to see if i get BFP friday if not i will be starting cycle 5 but i am on 100mg so we will see. Another batch of hot flushes!!!

Lauralou i want to see your bump!!! pics pls
what were the sign you experince before you found out you were pg?
As i suffer from sore boobs and cramping anyways not sure what is happening???

Hiya
They gave me 6 months of 50mg and I have just finished 4th month so lots of action needed next week. My doc told me to combine month 5 and 6 and one last month of 100mg. You never know stranger things have happened. Im feeling positive ( sort of ) after Lauralous comments as im overweight ( cuddly )but as far as I know I do not have pcos. I have 1st app at clinic on 3rd oct so im hoping they will do all the checks. DH has low count too so feel like im swimming against the tide as we probably all do.

oh well it will be worth it in the end. I just really dont want to have to go through IVF as it can put a real strain on everything, but if needs be im sure we will try anything.

Anyone know much bout the difference between IUI and IVF???

i have a failed ivf back in 2005
it is stressful!!!! i cried as the baby that i would of had would of been 2....
All the injections i gave myself and i was bruised like crazy.
Well the dr's say i am over weight too?? but i am big boned. I don't see myself like posh!!! but i have lost some weigth and i have my curves.
My dp sperm is fine it's all on me no pressure then.....
i am not sure about IUI

attention baby dust needed!!!
I feel like AF is on her way!!!! Don't think it is a BFP
I want to scream and shout!!!!!!! *

BABY DUST by bucket load to you!!! Will keep my fingers crossed for you.

Could always be pg stmptoms as they can mimic af??

Not been on thread before just been watching it! I have PCOS and been trying for 14 mths started my 1st round clomid this month and now on cd 16 but think may have missed best days as dh not around!! Got in couple of days before tho so hoping they were good swimmers and stayers!!
