Our old clomid thread is no longer allowing new comments, and it's taken me 24 hours and multiple failed comments to understand why - we filled it up So thought I'd start a new one...

@Jesskir89 that's reassuring thanks xx when we conceived naturally one test was 50 something and the next well over 140 something I think. I just want to wish the week away so I know either way now 🙈 x

@squirrelnutkins1 I've got everything crossed for you! @doomkittycleo please keep us updated on your progress and beat of luck to you!

squirrelnutkins1 · 20/07/2019 17:49

Thank you! @Jesskir89

I've been stuck on the old thread waiting for updates!

Congratulations @doomkittycleo @Zara84 @squirrelnutkins1 and anyone else that got a bfp! In case I missed anyone else, I was catching up really fast!

@Marmite83 really excited to hear you are starting ivf. I've got everything crossed for you.

I'm currently 8 weeks along myself and having a viability scan tomorrow.

squirrelnutkins1 · 21/07/2019 11:37

@fulanigirl I've not got my bfp yet, well I had one in March but had a mc. First month of Letrazole this month. How many rounds of Letrazole/clomide did you have before your bfp? Congrats 🎉

fulanigirl · 21/07/2019 11:54

@squirrelnutkins1 sorry got confused! I was on Clomid for 4 months but I wouldn't say that's what helped my conceive. I've always ovulated and had chemical pregnancies so I didn't understand why they put me on it. It was when they started me on metformin 1500mg a day that did the trick for me.

doomkittycleo · 21/07/2019 12:01

@fulanigirl, I didn’t get my bfp yet either, I’ve over responded to clomid and having to stop TTC for a month.

fulanigirl · 21/07/2019 12:13

@doomkittycleo really sorry I read the thread too fast!

Marmite83 · 21/07/2019 13:20

Thanks @fulanigirl and good luck for your viability scan tomorrow

impatientmammy · 21/07/2019 16:12

I've ran out of OPKs and can't help but feel like this isn't our month 😩 we've dtd everyday as well x

Jesskir89 · 21/07/2019 17:44

@impatientmammy we dtd every other day and so did my friend and it worked for us maybe try this? They said if you do it every day the sperm isn't as strong. Just a thought x

Goingbacktokansascity · 21/07/2019 18:17

@impatientmammy 🤞🏽 You just missed the surge on the 17th and that there’s gonna be a positive test and no more OPKs needed

Goingbacktokansascity · 21/07/2019 18:19

@impatientmammy my OPKs seem fucked to be honest 😂

@Marmite83 good luck, hope you’re feeling well and keeping everything crossed for you.

@impatientmammy those OPKs look good to me. Good luck!

@Flashesofrage I didn’t have any side affects either really, apart from some hot flushes and slight headaches. Good luck

Goingbacktokansascity · 21/07/2019 20:02

@Jemstar33 how’s everything going since the +

Jemstar33 · 21/07/2019 20:08

@Goingbacktokansascity I'm so happy but at the same time trying not to get too excited in case anything bad happens. I’ve booked an early scan for 3 weeks time so have to keep everything crossed until then.
How are you? Sorry the OPKs don’t seem to be working x

Goingbacktokansascity · 21/07/2019 20:11

@Jemstar33 I feel ok about it, I’m sort of just looking forward to next cycle I think and I’m going to try the inositol then too. Good idea with the early scan! Fingers and toes crossed

Jemstar33 · 21/07/2019 20:14

@goingbacktokansascity good for you! This could still be your lucky one. I hope so! Thank you. Keep us updated x

impatientmammy · 21/07/2019 22:26

@Jesskir89 we normally do every other day so I thought I'd give this a go. My other half keeps saying we're not pregnant cause we havnt been trying hard enough 🙄 I little bit want to show him he's wrong but I'd gladly be wrong for a BFP.
@Goingbacktokansascity ooh I didn't think of that. It's so infuriating isn't it. I'd def recommend the clearblue ones if you haven't tried them already.
Thanks @Jemstar33 I'd just come off night shifts so think I was being a grump 😂 I know how long my leutal phase is so I can usually work it out after.
Hope everyone's doing ok thank you so much for all the support x

HmBuddy · 22/07/2019 12:09

I only get 1 positive opk a month!.... Is anyone else in the same boat at me?

impatientmammy · 22/07/2019 13:14

@HmBuddy they're only posative if it's as strong as of stronger than the controll line so you should only have one posative day x

HmBuddy · 22/07/2019 13:26

@impatientmammy... Thanks. Before clomid i was so irregular I was hoping first round of it would give very noticeable difference. This I'll just have to wait and see (though its driving me mad)

I think I need to have a good night out where I dont think about it at all!

Goingbacktokansascity · 22/07/2019 18:22

@HmBuddy the only one positive OPK is a good sign!

HmBuddy · 22/07/2019 19:08

@goingbacktokansascity.... I hope so. Before the medication I only had a couple of months where an opk was positive

I've finally had my nhs appointment to get on the list for laparoscopy to unblock my tube and to do ovarian drilling. It was this morning and my surgery is a week today! No idea how that happened, but I'm really happy about it! I am celebrating with a milkshake and burger Grin.
