Hi ladies sorry not been on this week as I started back to work and it’s been crazy busy. I’m on cd17 now and still waiting for ovulation 😩 and I’ve been so bloated these last few days. Do you take anything for the bloating?
How are you all feeling today?

Luna1108 · 15/04/2021 09:54

I caved and tested at 10dpo. Nothing, stark white bfn. Whyyyy do I do this to myself?!

Holding on to hoping that it was too early, but I’m probably out 😔

@Suki2020 the bloat is killer! I just used a wheat bag, that helped mine quite a lot for some reason.

Shelleybe · 15/04/2021 10:16

@Luna1108 could it be too early though to show anything?

@lastbany do you think any chance could be ?? I’m so cramping waiting for it to start today uh

@Suki2020 I found bloating horrible sometimes I would put a hot water bottle on tummy but maybe just for bit of comfort

Shelleybe · 15/04/2021 10:41

So officially out ladies for this month for me...

lastbany · 15/04/2021 12:49

@Shelleybe AF?? Me still nothing ! Very annoying

@lastbany yeah it’s here uh! Round 2 so for me.. would ya test again?

Suki2020 · 15/04/2021 12:57

@Shelleybe sorry af arrived for you.
@Luna1108 maybe still to early to show.
When do you find your bloating is worse? I’ve not had it this bad in my previous two clomid cycles.

Luna1108 · 15/04/2021 14:31

@Suki2020 in the run up to ovulation the bloating was bad - assume it was the follicles!!

Got my progesterone back and it was 37, so fully confirmed ovulation which is good at least. Doctor said she was happy to prescribe me 6 more months of clomid and that if I were to get a positive, then to use some progesterone pessaries 🙃 just to be safe apparently! Ugh. Wish I could just know when it would be and then I could work towards it rather than crushing disappointment each month.

@Shelleybe I’m sorry that af arrived, what a witch. Are you doing 2-6? I might be joining you in a couple of days.

chloedancer897 · 15/04/2021 15:22

@Luna1108 it's too early. It's not over until AF says so!

@Shelleybe I'm so sorry. Was this your first month? I've heard sometimes it's take a few months for it to stimulate you enough so hopefully another round or 2 will do it for you!xx

lastbany · 15/04/2021 15:55

@Shelleybe at least came in time not too much of a tease! Still nothing for me! If nothing will test sat morning c

So it has completely stopped again... like a bit this morn and then nothing all evening. So I’m like should day 1 be tomorrow and start clomid following day cause of the way not bleeding right now ? Hope making sense of anyone can give me advice. I am going take same again. Day 2 to 6 thanks everyone messages. First cycle so give it time. Def a witch Chloe x

chloedancer897 · 15/04/2021 18:07

@Shelleybe I was told to count your first day of proper bleeding as first day. Maybe do a pregnancy test to rule that out too xx

lastbany · 15/04/2021 18:25

@Shelleybe yes I was told this if start at night etc be the next day x

I'm on cycle day 14 and still haven't ovulated yet as per my opks. However yesterday I had cramps in my ovaries in the evening. Not sure when I'm going to ovulate? Anyone ovulated later than cycle day 14? I took clomid cycle day 2 to 6

lastbany · 16/04/2021 00:21

Cd30 today for me guys!! Very annoying no AF if still none by sat morning will test again! But can't see it been a bfp in all honestly

OP posts:
chloedancer897 · 16/04/2021 08:33

@Happinesscomesfromwithin you ovulate 5-10 days after the last pill so you could ovulate up to CD16. Are you testing with OPKs? If not, just DTD every other day to cover yourself.

@lastbany oh my goodness! How long are your cycles normally? I really hope it's good news for you xo

Happinesscomesfromwithin · 16/04/2021 11:02

Yay got my positive OPK this morning.

Clomid / wait game
lastbany · 16/04/2021 11:45

@chloedancer897 always had 28 days but since been trying it's been awful and between 27/33 days!! So very annoying!!

lastbany · 16/04/2021 11:50

Luna1108 · 16/04/2021 12:01

Spotting and cramps for me so I’m waiting too! I was hoping one of us would be a BFP! Next month ladies, next month.

Shelleybe · 16/04/2021 13:14

Hey all starting back clomid tomorrow night. Everything crossed for all of us. Hope to see good news in here over next few weeks and sure we will keep each other sane till then x

Shelleybe · 16/04/2021 13:15

Great news @Happinesscomesfromwithin on positive opk. Get busy 😜

Happinesscomesfromwithin · 16/04/2021 15:18

Thank you @shelleybe i will as soon as hubby is home from work. We have been doing the deed everyday this week though so I think we are well prepared.

Is it possible to ovulate from both sides on clomid as both my ovaries have been cramping today. Also I have had pinching sensations in my uterus today not my ovaries? Anyone else had this?

lastbany · 16/04/2021 15:46

@Shelleybe so strange I had really funny turn on my nights about 3am I had been cramping but then tummy pain because intense and at one side! Was teally strange and bit scary was going dizzy etc but it passed and I expected to come on but nope
Still nothing clomid sat ready to start!!!
