I have the same symptoms xpress- let us know what happens at your doc- I'm bloated and my fiance is eating heaps which he thinks is a symptom of me being pregnant as it happened all four other times with his kids. I have a sore tummy- its horrible. Supposedly bloating can be a symptom of pregnancy- i hope I am- nothing more in the world I want than to have a happy healthy child.
Hope those on clomid thus far are having some success! I fell pregnant first cycle on clomid (50mg) but had a m/c at 8 weeks - so I am now taking the progesterone again to induce my period and start a second cycle of clomid, fingers cross it works again!
I felt a bit bleh taking it but it wasn't as bad as I expected.
Hugs to missymooho, I really wish none of us had to go through all this but I guess we are more deserving when we do have a child because we know what it's for things not to just fall into our laps. Big hugs to all of you. Quite honestly there is a part of me that gets really jealous when I hear of someone getting pregnant but its not as hard to hear when it comes from you guys as I know you've been through the same if not worse than me.
Update:
I o'ed last cycle but didn't fall pregnant- Af came last week and I have decided not to take clomid again for three months as I am waiting for my new private health cover to kick in (local public hospital is not known for being any good) and am back on the pill (dianne) as I fell pregnant on it last time (over 2 years ago while dating a horrible guy) when I missed about a week or so when I was on holidays and I've heard the pill in the month after stopping to take it can help the fertility system ovulate for some reason- so I'll give that a go and if that doesn't work I'll be back on clomid with the horrible side effect. Is torture passing that 5 day mark in your cycle knowing your not going to ovulate this time aorund and you could have. Just trying to give myself the best chance under the best conditions. I've taken to calling the pill baby killers out of frustration- not a good attitude i know- I still hate myself for going through an abortion- listening to others advice instead of going what I wanted.
Firstly, sorry to hear that you had an abortion due to external pressures - not an easy time for anybody I think but that you stay positive and hopefully fall pg and have a happy healthy baby.
Even though you didn't fall pg last cycle at least you ovulated you're halfway there! It's a sign that obviously your body responds to the clomid and although you may experience some side effects, it's the least risky (and relatively inexpensive) way to TTC. So maybe it's just a timing issue now? Even though I m/c on my first pregnancy which is obviously not the sort of outcome anyone wants, at least I know that I can get pregnant after two years of TTC with no luck. And if I can get pg once I can most certainly do it again!
Is there a particular reason you are waiting three months? Is this due to waiting periods so you can have private obstetric care? Have you thought about maybe trying another public hospital if you're not to keen on your local one or are there not many around?
AFM I've finished taking the primolut so am now waiting for AF to come to start the clomid again. I didn't experience too many side effects last time although I took it at night. But I had very bad right side abdo pain around O time but I guess at least I knew it was working.
Yeah I'm waiting so I can go to the local private hospital as my mother had a lot of trouble givng birth to both her children so I want to be in the best most comfortable care- my fiance's experiences with having kids also has him supporting private hospitals- well the one near us anyway. So we're waiting for the private health cover to kick in- not sure exactly how long you have to wait yet- but I'm finding it very hard to wait for. I'm also at uni so many people think I can't handle a child as I have my 'whole life ahead of me' but I'm over listening to other people as it led me to a life changing mistake, which nobody stuck around to help me deal with. I was in shock at the abortion clinic where I felt I was trying to make my eyes scream so they would stop me from goign through it- my signature on the forms should not have meant anything legally if I was assessed properly.
I'm so happy I ovulated and I hope when I try with clomid again it works- although I am still getting stomach pains from clomid and I'm on day 7 of my cycle (the one after I used clomid) and my emotions are all over the place and I'm tired a lot still so maybe I'll ovulate again as it maybe didn't wear off and it takes 2 weeks for the pill to kick in so maybe I'll be lucky- feels wrong hoping I'll get pregnant when I'm planning to wait- but really I just want it to happen- but I know I'll be happier if I get the private health cover too. Just when you want a baby this bad- private health cover is the last thing on your mind but I'm sure once I'm pregnant it will be terribly important, so I'm trying to be very rational.
Even though I have wonderful support from my fiance I feel very alone going through all this unless I am writing or reading on this website so thank you for communicating to me. Infertility is terribly lonely- and hard to go through it when ur partner doesn't feel the same frustration as he has never wanted children this badly before- all his have been conceived on demand practically which makes me feel worse as his ex rubs it in my face constantly and has worded the kids up to think I'll never have kids which made me cry last week and I almost hid in my room all day and missed out on uni- but plucked up the courage to go in the end (had so much practice at bouncing back these days having so much rubbed in my face with my infertility).
Hi Ladies,
Just a quick few questions if anyone could answer would be great.
Is Thrush a side effect from Clomid ???
I finished my cylce on Wednesday night and noticed on Wednesday I had Thrush, I dont usually get this in fact its been so long I can remember the last time.
Will Thrush treatments affect the sprem if still present ??
Also my doc forgot to tell me when I should ovulate after the last tablet Clomid ???
I took Clommid on days 5-9 of my cycle so im guessing it would be around the 13-14 day that I should ovulate ?? I want to know when I should start trying, today is day day 11 of my cycle so getting excited but anxious as this is my first cycle on Clomid.
