TTC - Clomid Part 3

[stac14]

Follow on from the old thread for people trying to conceive using fertility treatments.

hey dodgy your gp may give you it, but it was my cons and only when i asked. I was on it for 2 months and lost bout half a stone
fairy i would defo ask it was worth it for me hun
Still no defo plans for tonight sil hax puemonia so doubt she will be up to much. Dps friends want us to go over and we are being made to feel guilty cos his friends gf is going and she is 6 weeks pregnant so i should be able to do it too, feckers lol xxx

Hi all
Im in a state of OMG think i have had my BFP!!! On cd 48 and decided being new year would do a quick test to make sure - boobs have been sore n was sure would come on but i got a BFP!! now im worried it could be wrong but it came up straight away. how long before i can do another test too check????

helloooooo all!

scuse any dodgy typing have DD sitting on lap waiting to get onto play education city!

Got back from a lovely family visit, been away for a few days and just been reading your posts and trying to catch up. Its been busy on here! Missed you all!

Stac, glad you are still feeling well, you still give us all hope
Welcome dodgyovaries, its a great support being on this thread. I too am trying to conceive number 2 its proving SO difficult
Fairy - good that you seem to be oving and managing to get down to BDing (at last!!) I would ask your consultant about metformin, it may just be the thing to give you that extra chance.
popsy, jobo I really can;t imagine dealing with the losses you have both suffered. You are both so brave
milly sorry the provera is giving you a hard time, stick with it and hopefully you'll get af sooon

I just did another test and got another bfn, While I was away I had REALLY bad pains which felt like oving pains, but no cm and had thought I may have ov a couple of weeks ago. However with my massively irregular cycles I really don;t know where I am. I am torn now whether to give the provera anothr go and try another (5th cycle) of clomid or give myself a rest. Like fairy I have my consultant appointment soon (18th jan) I now feel like I am veering towards not wanting to go down the donor egg route - which for me would probably mean I wouldn;t be accepted for ivf given my circumstances.

Anyway ladies sorry for massive posting, wishing you all a smashing evening. mine will be spent recovering from seeing all the family and spending it with DH and DD (well till she goes to bed!)
xxxxxxxxxx

OMG peju just read your post. Fantastic news. Yes do another (though chances of false positive are incredibly rare)

Woohoo peju so chuffed for you huni, very rare to get a false positive. You can do them as often as you like but I think its about 3 days. Think the sore boobs and positive test kind of prove the point though

Aww clure thanks your a wee star, sorry about bfn hun but it will happen for you. How was your hols?

All the best to everyone when it comes. Go on 2010 for plenty more bfp's xx

did another test clearblue digi - BFP 3+ weeks cant believe it - miracles do happen!!
For those of you out there never give up hope - i got pcos n clomid didnt work too well - oh has low count but we did it natural!!!
Thanks to all of your support i would have gone ad without it!!

Happy New Year!!!

so pleased for you peju, congratulations. Keep us all posted on how you are doing! The sore boobs was my first sign when I had DD. i remember doing one of my runs and having to wear 2 sports bras they were that sore! x

Fantastic news peju - just what we need to ring in the new year! So thats 2 - who'll make it 3?

Nice to see you back clure sorry about your news

Aww well done peju!!!!!!!!!!!!! See I said we'll have to change the name of this thread soon! Oh I'm so pleased for you!!!

Big hugs clure - keeping my fingers crossed for the rest of us! Glad you had a good time. deffo on the chill out tonight. Thats where we're headed I think!

I'll def be wishing for bfp for all of us in 2010.

peju that means your 6 weeks or more hun thats what I got when it was mine so chuffed for you

Defo the year for bfp's. fairy need to start thinking of new names for this thread

love and hugs to all speak to you in the new year, we are just about to head to dp's mums for the bells so Happy New Year!!!

Happy New Year Everyone!!!!!!

Shed loads of baby dust!!!!

Happy new year ladies!! Hope you all had a good one.
Huge congrats peju what a great way to start the new year.

I'm off to hospital later for a scan. Best get showered n shave my legs! Will let you know how I get on.
Xx

Happy new year to you all! Did you have a nice time? I didnt get to bed till 5.30, so knackered. popsy fingers crossed for a huge folicle hun. X

Congratulations peju, good luck popsy, Happy New Year everyone!

Well not the new i'd have hoped for, laying on back, feet in stirrups with a giant internal probe!!

Anyway, my follicle still isn't big enough, although it has grown, its now 16mm (needs to be above 17mm i think she said) so back on Monday for another scan, then another later in the week. I hate having to take time off work, but i know it has to be done! The nuurse said that the metformin is working with my PCOS and the clomid and it is hopefully going to make me ovulate at a more natural time. I'm hoping this is a good sign hubby is remaining very positive.

We've just been for a late luch ealry dinner with DS so i'm now suitable stuffed.

Hope you have all had a lovely day
xx

hi popsy, good news that the metformin and clomid are working, Fingers crossed your follies will grow to the recommended size!

wishing you all a happy new year and raising a glass to a few more bfps

Had a nice day, took DD out with DH for a nice riverside walk - totally freezing! I had a run this morning but my pelvic floors are playing up so it was a bit uncomfortable and I wasn't able to go for my usual 10k. Just finished playing snakes and ladders!
stac hope you managed to catch up on some rest - you scots really know how to celebrate the new year. I was in bed before midnight desperately trying to stop DH dreadful snoring (he has a poorly throat and head cold! bless him but no sympathy last night!!!)

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx dust

Hi popsy - good news about the drugs hon, I'm sure the clomid will kick in. I'm sure you'll have more positive news during the week.

I've had a lazy day. Also discovered that I'm a stone lighter than I was this time last year so feel pretty pleased with myself although I def need to get back into exercise & controlled diet.

Also been looking up metformin so I can suggest it to cons.

Had sore boobs all day (feel bruised more than anything) which could also be more confirmation that I've ovulated. Really hope I've caught it! Yesterday I had almost period type pains!

Just made a curry so very stuffed!!!!

Thats great its working popsy I am defo a fan of metformin lol I'm sure your folicle will grow over the weekend

clure I am still shattered another round of visiting, luckily I have no plans tomorrow so hoping for an easy day

fairy it could be your month hun, sore boobs and cramping sound positive

peju has the news sunk in yet? I still cant believe it sometimes

Hey jobob, millymolly and ven how was your new years?

Well everyone I will be 12 weeks tomorrow, can't believe we got here, still been cramping and obsessively knicker checking but probs just me having a bit of an ocd. Have my scan on Wednesday so hope everything is ok. Hope they dont put my due date back either, omg I am turning into a worrier lol

Take care ladies, cheese pickle and pineapple cocktail stick flavoured baby dust **

stac can't believe you were up so late (or was it early) on NYE! Teaching that baby bad habits already lol!

We just had a quite one, telly,bed, read, settle down and then the fireworks went off and the dog nearly exploded from under his blanket so it took ten mins to get him back to bed, only for there to be more fireworks, by the third time he wasn't so bothered. So i tucked him in again (yes honestly, he gets rather chilly!) and that was that. DS has slept over at nanny & papa's last night so nice to have a break.

Hope everyone is ok and enjoyed the weekend

Hi all
Bit more time to relax and get over my shock now!! Still feels a bit unbelievable as we had only been told we didnt have much of a chance natural coz of both our test results. really didnt expect a BFP and only took the test coz i had a very real dream that i got a bfp! only thing i can think that must of helped is fact i lost 1 1/2 stone and was walking lots.
Defo sunk in now tho stac - sick last night!!! ate something that dont agree!!
Going to make docs app on monday - will keep in touch with you all - want to see the next bfp's on here!!
Fairy - that all the symptoms i had good luck!!
Baby dust to you all!!

Hi peju please stay like stac & keep us all posted on everything!

Still trying to think of a cool thread name for when we all have bfps!!!

A lot of people have said about dreams that make them do tests!

I really hope it is all good signs for me. The gap is widening between my niece & her cousins. She'll be at least 6 years older than any I have - which is the same between me & my little bro which aint too bad but still an age gap to play.

Oh well, such is life.

Why have all the best chocolates have nuts in them???

I'm impressed stac i was in bed just after midnight!!

Well done fairy for being a stone lighter. Just been out for a brisk walk, really as break from attempting to wrote an essay for uni, but need to get back in the routine of our weekly walking i've kinda missed it.

Impressive clure a regular 10k runner, i think i'll stick to my walking though , too big boobs for running .

I've also been a little concerned over the age gap, if i ever fall pg. Our son is 13 so theyd be a huge gap between them!!

Hey ladies, I have defo made up for the very late night/morning as I now have a stinking cold and keep falling asleep lol. As clure said it is quite traditional in Scotland to be partying for days for Hogmany so 5am is mild lol. Had a very long lie yesterday and mil made me steak pie for dinner, visited dps friends for a couple of hours then crashed and burned lol. Last thing I want is baby to learn to be awake all night so it will be back to 10pm bedtimes

popsy I did loads of walking in the past year, trying to loose weight and also to get the dog to. Hoping to get back into it as its great exercise

peju I think my weight loss contributed to getting bfp but I did it with the help of metformin. Have you told anyone?

How are you ladies today? fairy are you still cramping and stuff? Hope everyone is well xxxxxxxx

Hi Stac boobs still bruised feeling & feel a little fuller but I sometimes get that when I come on! A few aches occassionally. CD18 today.

Spent the whole day with my niece & nephews. Feeding, bum changing & a 2 hour nap on me from my baby nephew. Lots of playing, getting them ready to bed & putting them down with my older niece & nephew. Feel shattered now!

How is everyone else? I think I'm back to work Monday so need to get planning!

Baby Dust

Can you believe how quickly these holidays have went by? Aww fairy sounds like you have had a lovely day. Are you baby sitting?

popsy meant to say earlier there will be an 11 year age gap between ds and this little one and dp's son will be 12 and they are thrilled hun. Dp and I thought I would have fell far quicker (as we all have before we knew about fertility probs) but it would still have been quite a gap. Theres 10 years between me and my sis and if anything it made me more protective over her so try not to worry about the gap.

I have a stinking cold, sinuses are hurting my head lol off to bed with a magazine have to get ds back into his routine he is back in school on Tuesday xxx
