Ah yes... the bum propped up on pillows.. trying to watch tv between my legs

I think it was an HCG trigger - it was called Ovitrine and due to the short notice I had to trek to the Lister to get it!

Sooo annoying re your eggs. You put all this effort in to something, the least you think your body would do would be to co-operate..

That's horrible, what you saw.. It makes you want to shake them and ask them if they realise how lucky they are... (which they clearly don't)..

i know. i want to scream "be grateful you idiot" and tbh i nearly did (clomid is turning me into Norman Bates - rage woke me up on sat night)

Lissie i saw this yesterday, but didn't have time to post. I'm just speechless. It's so awful.

I also thought that everything you said in your op was so true - especially the added strain ttc/ftc puts on a relationship...

rainbowdays · 15/07/2009 09:54

Lissie - so for you seeing your cousins children treated so badly, while you have all the love there is to give, it hurts.

cedar12 · 15/07/2009 10:02

Oh god Lissie thats awful those poor children. I just hope they get someone as lovely as you to look after them now.

thank you. O is still in hospital, dont know full facts yet but dad said the situation is very bad. im still so angry. i hope they both go to jail and i hope they both rot there. how dare they? children are a gift, not a right. they are monsters. worse than animals. a tigress will die protecting her cubs, this evil bitch sat by and allowed her bf (and supplier) beat her children into hospital.

Shrek - forget about those whitecoated men and have another drink! You might be in the 2ww madness but I need a drinking partner so that I can reach oblivion away from delayed ov freaking me. I don't want an annov cycle now, I have been having great time with dh having real sex rather than procrative timing and now would be perfect timing for ov to have happened, but nope ovulation is avoiding me. So bottoms up, lets drink.

OracleInaCoracle · 16/07/2009 18:17

shreks, possible to ov twice on clomid you know!!

rainbows, that a bit pants. ill drink with you!

Would you mind if I joined you for a bit? I'd just like to be with like minded people for a while.

We've been ttc our first child for 3 years now. Started my first couse of Clomid in June - then af arrived yesterday. Have managed, for the past 6 months or so, to be fairly unaffected when af arrives but clomid had obviously seeded that stupid TTC hope back in my brain which meant when the witch turned up this month, I was inconsolable. To the extent my DH had to come home from work. Although I'm pretty sure most of that was residue hormones from the clomid talking.

Lissie I read your other thread and I hope your family are coping at such an awful time. I was just speechless reading it. Totally speechless.

I am starting to rate clomid in the same category as the evil pee-sticks. Evil stuff just designed to put folks into a state that is cruel mental torture, trouble is that with clomid is a physical as well as mental torture. So glad I am not having to take the evil stuff myself.

PicknMix · 17/07/2009 12:42

Have you sufferened many side effects from the clomid Shrek? I've had awful hot flushes - just suddenly start pouring sweat! Also mood swings, laughing that will swiftly turn into tears without warning. As you say Rainbow, its mental as well as physical - I'm a bit of a drama queen so I thought I was just being a bit of a hyperchondriac but, actually, I genuinely am suffering all these side effects. It actually is shite.

I genuinely hate it - I hate this never ending cycle of ttc. I've seen it written on this thread before, but how do you turn off those ttc habits? I can't for sure.

I have 'taught' myself to not be upset when af arrives - I have affected an air of indifference about it all, even though inside it stabs me in the heart. However, the clomid brought it all to the fore and I can't believe how upset I was yesterday.

I truely hope it has worked for you this time Shrek.

OracleInaCoracle · 18/07/2009 21:38
