Bubblebell1 · 10/06/2009 18:35

suzi touch wood i dont seem to have the mood swings. i feel quite happy.( Altho it mite be because im sooooooo excited about gettin my new puppy on sat), I get the odd twang down below and have loads of ewcm tmi sorry. only got 1 more tablet let and then i have to wait and see. Im trying not to think about the 'M' word

Dh has his sperm test tomorrow. bless him he is really nervous about it. Im sure he will be fine.

im off out round a friends tonight for a chat and a few bottle s of wine .

Louise00 · 10/06/2009 19:06

Bubble i didn't know you were on Clomid. How long have you been taking it for? Is it the 50mg or 100mg? Hope you don't mind me asking but my cons put me on it this is my second day, first cycle on it. Have you been ok on it?

Bubblebell1 · 11/06/2009 08:14

Morning girls!

how are you today?

louise this is my first cycle on clomid too.(50mg) Today i take my last tablet and have to then hope that i ov this cycle. I was refered because im not ovulating regularly but i havnt had a diagnosis as to why its not happening.
Thankfully im not having any major symptoms. the odd pain low down in my pelvis and loads of ewcm. (which cant be bad.) I keep having moments where i think its not working but obviously it wont be til later in the cycle that i know if its worked or not. I will have a day 21 test to see if the 50mg is enough and if not then next cycle i will have the dose increased to 100mg.

good luck

seanybosmummy · 11/06/2009 09:28

The not thinking about it obv worked suzi, we should all take a leaf out of your book! Good luck with your scan on tuesday, and def please do stick about and let us know how you and your lovely sticky bean are getting on xx

bubble the ewcm and pains are a great sign
when do you get your 21 day test? I have mine tomorrow arrrggghhh!! Wonder how long ill have to wait on the results?

Joy27 · 11/06/2009 17:49

Congrats suzi- so pleased for you.
If you've skimmed over thread you'll have seen that I got a BFP too. It happened for me too when I forgot about ttc for a few weeks. Weird.

Had a horrible morning this morning, as I started bleeding. Thankfully all seems to be OK, though I am a week behind the mw's estimate- so I'm just 6w and due in early Feb.

bubble glad to hear the clomid is treating you ok.

Hope all are OK.

Louise00 · 11/06/2009 18:40

Hi Girls.

Hope everyone is good.

Bubble it's nice to know that someone else is at stage im at with the Clomid. My situation is quite like yours. My progesterone levels are very low i think the last test showed it was 6nmol/L- fertility cons said I may ovulate one month but then don't for like 6 months or something so it's hard for me to find the right time to conceive. I also have had some abdominal surgery which may have buggered things up a bit, but like you I have not had a definate diagnosis as to why I can't get pg. The attempted a HSG to check my tubes but couldn't perform the test, 'bizzare' is what they said, so In don't even know if they're working properly. A laporoscopy is too risky to do cos of all the surgery I have had so the cons chose to start me on this. I just really hope it works. Im really glad to hear that some of the ladies are expecting-that's great news. There is hope for all of us yet though!! xx

Bubblebell1 · 12/06/2009 09:34

Morning girls!

only 1 more sleep til i can bring Reggie home

LOL

How is everyone?

lou its awful when they cant give you an explaination. i feel lucky to a degree that i already have 2 ds'. but sad that i cant add to my family without help. Im trying to keep positive. Dh's sperm test results should be back on Thurs and he is nervous too. We decided that if it shows a prob with DH then we would just leave it. I dont fancy IVF and dont think i would get it when i have 2 kids already.

joy i hope the bleeding has stopped.

seany good luck with your test. Mine isnt til 26 june. (im only on cd7) Hopefully it will make me ovulate and i will get pg and we all will get pg and everyone will be happy

Kaylo · 12/06/2009 10:21

Antdamm · 12/06/2009 18:39

Hey ladies,

Just a fleeting post. Am horribly ill, felt like crap yesterday - had migraine, felt shaky and like i had no energy and felt like i was going to be very sick - but i wasnt. Today isnt much better, but not as bad as yesterday.

Just wanted to say Suzi congrats, am very pleased for u.

joy - hope the bleeding has stopped
bubble - keep your chin up love [hug]
seany - were you supposed to be testing soon? my brain has gone to mush.

I have forgotten which CD i am on, and since I have not taken any agnus watchamacallit I might end up having a 54dayer or similar.

Oh, and Whitty where are you hiding?

Ta ta for now, i may resurface when I start to feel human again

seanybosmummy · 13/06/2009 09:18

awwww poor ant, hope whatever nasty bug you have goes away soon.
No testing for me, af not due til next sat-had 21 day test yest so maybe thats what you're thinking of. Get results anytime from weds.

I have officially lost all interest in hpts and symptom spotting-i honestly couldnt be arsed with it all this month.

How is everyone doing? Anybody got anything nice planned for the wkend?

OP posts:
seanybosmummy · 13/06/2009 09:21

bubble im sure the excitement in your house this morning awaiting the arrival of reggie holds a likeness to christmas morning lol (and im not talking about your dc )

whittywantababy6 · 13/06/2009 13:57

Hey ladies sorry I dissappeared, I had computer issues the darn thing wasnt working so I had to get it fixed and I havent been to work all week they recommended time off from me collapsing.

Anywho I missed you all I havent talked to my doctors about those results I decided I will wait until my lovely fiance returns next week to do so. So that if its good it can be a fathers day gift.

And if its bad well we will just relax and enjoy each other.

I see that everyone is doing well keep it up ladies.

Bubblebell1 · 13/06/2009 18:07

Reggie is here!! He is adorable and Sasha likes him too.

Just wanted to say hi to everyone and wish you all a happy weekend

seany you are so right, Ive been up since 6am. He is my new baby Good luck for wed when you get the test results... let me know what they are

Louise00 · 15/06/2009 10:52

Hi Girls

Sorry I haven't been around the last few days. I have an exam Wednesday and have been trying to fit in as much revision as humanly possible. Anyway I finished first cycle of Clomid Saturday, it's really silly and I don't know whether it has anything to do with the Clomid but im feeling really really down has anyone else experienced this at all?? I feel like im going crazy, it could be aswell cos i'm stressing out about my exam but as the days go on i feel like i'm not picking up but just feeling worse- but I have nothing to feel down about!! I feel so stupid and so helpless. Sorry this is a long msg but I just had to get it off my chest. Bubble i'm really happy about your new arrival Reggie. I have two dogs one boy Chihuahua X Labrador (Don't ask lol) his name's Freddie and one girl Pomeranian (she is 7 months now) her name is Boo and they literally are my life. Anyway I feel a little better now, sorry for moaning girls xx

Bubblebell1 · 15/06/2009 11:31

Hi lou, if it helps any, since i finished the clomid i have been really moody.. agressive and low. fingers crossed you feel better in a few days.

LOL i would love to see a pic of freddie lab x chihuahua! im confused contemplating it
