TTC - Clomid Thread Part 2

[katlokna]

Hi everyone. I am starting up a new thread since our old one was reaching the 1000 post limit.

Here is a link to the old thread.

Hi

Had a great weekend thanks and hopefully the celebrations will carry on tonight .

Clure - sorry the witch arrived especially coz she was early ( how rude ). Also sperm count varies so much depending on stress and diet so maybe get DH checked out anyway for peace of mind. My DH had 2 tests 6 months apart and one was 18mill and the next one was 35mill. We worked out alot of crap was happening round time of the 1st test so may have had a big impact.

Shrek - HELLO I think it does vary a little to what day to start it but I think mostly in Uk its CD 2-6 then internal scan (egg scan)on CD 9-13. I hope you get on ok with the tabs. Stay with us to let us know how you get on

Any other news ladies xx

Morning all. Hope you're all doing ok. Some news from me: I had the faintest of faint lines on a PG test yesterday afternoon

It was so faint that when I showed it to DH he said first of all that he couldn't see it, and then that 'that was just how the test looks'. So I made him pee on one as a control! There was no faint line on his.

Both of us are far too scared to get our hopes up on what could have been an evaporation line, so am going to test again tomorrow. Will report back then! Please don't congratulate me yet, don't want to get my hopes up...

Good luck pinky

thanks clairebear hoping the upped clomid to 100mg don't give me side effects!

how are the rest of you? x

Clure - sorry you got AF know what you mean about at least not having to bother with provera this time. Hope side effects arent too bad.

Pinky - good luck tomorrow.

Will try and update roll call but sorry if i cock it up x

Hello all. Thanks for the good luck messages.

Well, the line is a bit pinker and darker this morning so I guess it is a BFP!

Never thought this would happen and still a long way to go - I had a MMC in February so just praying that this one sticks and grows ok.

Lots of baby dust to the rest of you. Will pop in again soon to see how you're all doing.

CONGRATS! pinkpanther!!! Loads of sticky dust for you.

Hiya

Good news Pinky I hope its a defo BFP and is a sticky bean x

Clure - alot of women said they dont really notice alot of difference in side effects from 50-100mg so hopefully that will be you too.
Its weird as last month I had alot side effects like cramps,bloating and headaches but this month I have been fine. All very weird as on same dose of 50mg.

me and DH have been on a marathon bding session this month as its been every day since last wed which is good for us as normally too knackered. Gonaa try and keep it up for a few more days

Have a good week ladies
x

congratrs pinky hope its sticky hun, keep us updatd on your progress xxx

awen stac and clairbear I'm not feeling any side effects (as yet) from 100mg clomid. Thank goodness - its tough enough having to face the witch turning up, period pains without facing clomid side effects too!!

Hey clure I didnt get any other side effects when I went up to 100mg any monitoring this time?

hi shrekmissis so sorry to hear of your losses. It certainly is a rollercoaster. I too have a DD who is 4 and was conceived first cycle on clomid. My periods weren't regular after having her. Now trying to conceive number 2 and have had one cycle of 50mg clomid which was not successful, i took provera to induce a period as previously i was waiting 5 months for it to turn up! I'm now taking 100mg and haven't felt any side effects. I, and a few other ladies here take clomid at night and it seems to be a good way of escaping any possible side effects.

I've just had another letter from consultant putting my august appt back to september. Am cross as this is the second time its changed and we've rearranged our holiday to fit with the august date. I feel after the last letter to tell me that my wonky hormones suggest low egg supply (and aged 41) my time is running out.

Sorry for rant. hope everyone else well xxxx

Hi all no news here other feeling negative have convinced myself its not happening because my tubes are blocked- i have no evidence to prove this and am probably just torturing myself!
on the two week wait now had lots of bding so did all we could.

Feel better on 100mg than 50- how odd.

Welcome shrekmissus am so sorry to hear about your situation I agree with you and clure it is such a rollercoaster.

clure am sor sorry the hospital are mucking your around that is ridiculous! And to receive such a letter is very cruel.

Hope everyone is ok hope and dust x x

I agree paddington I felt much better on 100mg but took this to be because of how long I had been on it. Whens your app to get tubes checked, try not to stress yourself about it, (at least thats what I am trying to tell myself)

Clure that really is shoddy treatment I wish there was someone we could complain too but we are pretty much left with what we are given.

Welcome shreksmisses I know excatly how you feel, so frustrating and stressful. I wish you every success

Hows everyone else? xxx

Well next month just waiting for av after the old 2 week wait i guess im stressing as im just waiting for something to give- am really unhappy in my job/ cant seem to get pregnant and have no way to vent anything.

Anyhow rant over... how are you doing stac? any news? x x

We're in the two week wait and it's draaaaaaaaaaaaaaging. The whole thing is such a waiting game, isn't it? And you feel really out of control. It'd be fine if you could decide to get pregnant on 1st July, and take it from there. (I wish!)

Hiya

ITS FRIDAY [GRIN]

Shreksmrs - Glad your staying with us. Im sorry to hear about your fertility probs but at least something is now being done. Clomid is not too bad and the side effects do vary so hopefully you will be lucky. It is a rollercoaster but all you can do is get on and scream when you need to. I hope clomid works for you x

Clure - Thats so crappy. They should know that its stressful enough with out blowing you out twice . Hopefully sept will bring some good news

Paddington - its so easy to convince yourself there are problems and stress yourself out. I was also convinced my tubes were blocked but all was clear so try and chill and wait until the test. Good about having no side effects on 100mg. at least thats one less thing to worry about

Kiwikat - I keep praying there will be a new wonderdrug/test that means everyone whatever their fertility problem can fall on whatever date they choose. I think it may be a long way off

We are having a nice quiet weekend so trying to chill and enjoy the weather. I have got dentist this afternoon though for 2 fillings so at least my mind will be on that today.

Pinky - any news ????

Have a lovely weekend girls xx
