@lastbany clomid did elongate my cycle by 2 days so same could be happening to you. I hope it happens soon and you can get moving into the next round with us! Also no fighting allowed around ovulation this time 😂

Shelleybe · 19/04/2021 19:29

Aw @chloedancer897 I have everything crossed. Busy few days haha!

@lastbany that’s so frustrating cause ya just want get on with next dose of clomid

I’m feeling a little fed up... just hoping this group lots of positives this month.... it’s dreaded here we go again I’m feeling. Like few more days of clomid then the tracking opks then blood work and the wait game... I know we are all feeling it x

lastbany · 19/04/2021 19:36

@Shelleybe @chloedancer897 I know! Need to get back in time with the gang 😂😂

@Shelleybe I know the feeling. I feel like we all need to see a BFP this month from someone before we all lose the plot!

There are so many people pregnant in my work, lots of little surprises too. I can't help but feel so jealous of people who just get pregnant a d never have to go through all of this

Shelleybe · 19/04/2021 21:02

I so get that @chloedancer897 I have literally in past few months heard ‘it was total accident’ ‘first time trying’ just happened so quickly ‘came off the pill and lucky and I’m like aw fab! But in my head panged with jealousy as no one knows we are trying or clomid....

chloedancer897 · 19/04/2021 21:20

@Shelleybe people close to me know we have been trying for so long. It's hard then because they tiptoe around me when they get pregnant as if it will offend me. I'm so happy for anyone who gets pregnant but I am always jealous I have to admit. This journey has been the worst thing I've ever been through

Luna1108 · 20/04/2021 12:20

@fara21 welcome! The clomid journey can be a tough one, fingers crossed we see some BFPs this month! Have you had any clomid symptoms?

@lastbany dare I ask how it’s going?! 😂

PurpleUnicorn01 · 20/04/2021 12:22

Hi All, thank you for sharing your stories. I think i might be going on clomid for a month in a couple of weeks. How are u all?

Luna1108 · 20/04/2021 12:30

@PurpleUnicorn01 welcome too!! Nice to have so many ladies supporting each other.

I’m CD3 today, so took my first tablet last night. No symptoms yet! Although I’m on a small dose which definitely helps.

Have you been TTC long?

PurpleUnicorn01 · 20/04/2021 12:36

@luna1108 only 2 years, but he has low sperm motility but i wanted to give this a go before ivf.

lastbany · 20/04/2021 16:20

Does anyone get tired from
Clomid? I don't know if it's my body the hormones (would they still be effecting me?) but I do feel exhausted like can hardly keep eyes open and need to see all the time ( o know preg signs) but really don't think it's tht think it's my body been unfair

OP posts:
Shelleybe · 20/04/2021 16:31

Welcome @PurpleUnicorn01 and @fara21 everything crossed for ye both. I’m on my second round. CD4 so see how this month goes. Unexplained infertility .

@chloedancer897 love that 💕

@lastbany I’m wrecked the last few days. My partner is like you are burnt out. Same can’t keep eyes open. Any sign of AF. It’s frustrating for you

@Luna1108 how are you going? I ordered some of the vitamins you recommended so thanks a mil

lastbany · 20/04/2021 16:36

@Shelleybe it's hard to know is it af coming the clomid or preg I very doubt preg? I would have had to ovulate around day 25/26 to be now in early preg we only dtd once on 27 then not till 30/31/32 I don't know!

OP posts:
Shelleybe · 20/04/2021 17:37

@lastbany that’s head wrecking... aww hope for BFP obviously for you and if not soon AF so you can get on to next round but obviously I want first one there for ye x

lastbany · 20/04/2021 17:48

@Shelleybe I know haha I have to laugh or I don't know what I would do!!! So annoying keep getting cramps etc but seem different I dunno very strange havibg tht little bit of blood not like me to spot etc I do think it's probably the clomid messing with me

OP posts:
fara21 · 20/04/2021 18:27

@PurpleUnicorn01 Thank you, hope everything goes well for you.Smile

@Shelleybe Thanks praying or us allWink

having crazy symptoms such as heavy and sore breast ,headaches and heartburn, had a few light cramps i think this symptoms must be of the clomid side effects did a pregnancy test this morning on CD25 a cheapie one and it was BFN so i think i'm out this month or is it too early too test going to have to go to round 3 of clomidSad maybe or maybe not lolSmile.

praying for us all[praying] here's hoping to BFP's this month.

Luna1108 · 20/04/2021 18:29

@fara21 officially this is my third round but only my second round trying as my first round got cancelled. I take mine CD2-6 which I think is the same for most in this thread.

We’ve been TTC for over a year now, been under fertility clinic for 4 months.

@lastbany I get really tired around AF and also when I’m taking the clomid. This round isn’t as bad though because of the half dose but when I did the 50mg I was sooo sleepy.

Are you gonna speak to your Dr if you don’t see AF soon? It must be so infuriating!

fara21 · 20/04/2021 19:17

@Luna1108 I took mine 3-7 days and on CD12 got follicle scan and got 2 follicles but not sure when i ovulated, just when on my 21 day progresterone blood test and doctor told me i ovulated. Now i just have to wait for AF too come and then start my 3rd round.

I had 2 misscarriages 5 years ago which were naturally conceiveSad and trying ever since.

i'm just really suprised all two rounds on 50mgs made me ovulate, As far as i've read not many respond to 50mg and have too upped their dose.
