Clomid: the story continues...

[StoneBaby]

Come and join in for a rant or support.
We're all in the same boat and on clomid...

wish I could but im covering for one whos already phoned in sick ao I cant

Kurama, just try your best with DTD. I must confess that after TTC for so long I no longer enjoy the act :(

Annie, how did you get on yesterday?

Ridgeway, best of luck!

Stone, best if luck with the IUI.

As for me, we missed doing the DTD at the right time as my DH was tired and then couldn't perform on several occasions. I resorted to using the softcup today but I think I ovulated 2 days ago :( :(

The only other news that I have is that I'm looking into IVF clinics and will be visiting three that are the closest to where I live/work. A friend recommended a clinic in Central London but I'm not sure that I can fit it with the school run.... And let's not forget work - I started a new job 4 weeks ago & I have a 6 months probation period.

Sorry I couldn't have names in bold. I'm on the phone & it's a pain to do it.

Love your work Ridgway!

Stone, sounds like things are looking good for IUI next week

Kurama hope you managed to get the deed done in time for ov this month.

London I didn't go to the interview . I had a total meltdown on Thursday before AF arrived and just couldn't take the pressure. I was so washed out on Friday I would have been rubbish anyway. I've already accepted a new job I got 2 weeks ago so I'm sticking with that. Like you say it's really difficult trying to fit the IVF in with starting a new job. I won't have enough holidays and because I live far away I've got to stay for 2 weeks near the clinic. So I'm going to try and stall my starting date until beginning of October.

I spoke to the clinic yesterday and they can book me in to start IVF when they have all our blood results and my smear. I'm expecting to get all the results in by mid August. If so I can start the pill on 21 Aug or 1st Sept.

I'm thinking of starting a new thread for anyone about to start IVF so please join that London if you end up there.

Good luck everyone on Clomid. We have to use condoms from now on so I'm over and out here! xxxxx

oh no annie so sad

kurma can you ferl that head ache coming on yet to get you home

hell be begging me by the time ive finished

Annie, I'm really sorry about your melt down & I hope that you are feeling better now. TTC is truly a roller coaster ride & it seems for most of us we have more downs than up :(

Where about in the uk are you? I think it's fantastic that you've already chosen a clinic & is going ahead with the IVF :)

As you know, I'm also going for IVF. I'm hoping to choose a clinic by October and aim to have my IVF cycle in January - this is when my probation period ends.

And of course I'll come over & join your new thread :)

we should have a thread TTC no matter the treatment. this tread gives me so much support just being able to rant. no one nos were on treatment so its nice to speak to someone apary from DH. BTW im on probation I should finish it in october. hopefuly if I concieve tgis week ill be around 12 week mark

annie sorry u had a meltdown, but at least u have a new job and i hope your ivf goes to plan. well if i did ov on wed/thurs we managed to dtd mon/thurs so still a chance i suppose. bloody lucky really as we havnt been doing it much since the bleed....
ridgway, oh i have a headache! shame its coz we was so busy i was drinking lilt all night. good luck for tonight!

Well dtd is supposed to start tonight. I've had lot of tommy pain today, I wonder if it's ov pain

Lol fx to you both that this is everyone's month xxx

Back in my favourite place... The waiting room of the fc. Thankfully there's free wifi! 3rd scan this cycle. Fx there's something big enough this month

Good luck stone

Well IUI is for tomorrow. One follicle is now 193mm and she saw a 2nd one of 200mm. I'm not sure about the 2nd I think it's my cyst. So trigger shot tonight and lots of hope

How is everybody doing?

Wow stone.fx and good luck x I'm feeling hopeful at the moment.howz everyone else?

stone looks like wete cycle buddies. im currently cd14 today I ovulated around cd9-11. I had stomac pains too which I put down to ovulation! today I have craping. and slight bleeding when wipping! looking on the net it suggests on a number of pages that this in implantion pain and bleeding and from this moment HGC Levels start??

question do I test or wait im only cd14???? am I reading too much? should I be concerned about the pain? FC wont see me till sep and dr wont help me either!! so confusing

Ridgeway - I think I would wait before POAS as you're still cd14.

So IUI was today I guess ovulation happened/is happening. Dtd tomorrow again just in case and then 2ww

ggrr hate waiting feels like a life time grr

Fx stone!

Ridgway I sympathise!!! Only 15 days left for me lol

Phew. No pains today, I feel so much better. Now just hoping it works as I can't bear the thoughts of having ovulation pains and periods pains with 15 days!!

2 cycle buddies, let fx together

stone karama I am convinced its worked for me this month but have that ferling its more than 1. I am shattered. pains have gone and had a slight bleed which everything surgests its an implantation bleed! boobs killing and swollen! smelling stuff is off the chart!!! im cd 15 I normally have 16 day cycle but clomid has changed that to 26 days so only 11 days left! everything says that a blood test would show it now! but too scared in case its a bfn! this week needs to speed up big time!!! x

OMG I cant get poas off my mind or babies im going insane!!! wish I had medical equipment so I can what's happening in their

FX ridgway im not really feeling anything yet, but will see what happens over the next week x

Far too early for me but I've promised myself to try to relax for the next 2 weeks and not symptom spot easier said than done

ok..... had some slight pink when wiping earlier and now had some bright red and also got some cramping going on..... implantation, or very belated if I ignore the spotting 2 weeks ago or very early af if I take spotting as weird af think my heads about to explode
