LT TTC & taking Clomid/Metformin #2

[becnxavi]

Hi girls,
I am now awaiting the results of my blood test, but on the advice of someone here (I can't remember who) I just went to 3 chemists in search of a digitial test. I have now done said test and IT SAYS PREGNANT! I was worried my hcg wouldn't register, but I came up in about 1 minute! I will admit that I am now thinking of myself as UTD!

OG- maybe this month will be your month and you wont have to worry!

Julia- how are you travelling? I saw you're not taking clomid this month?

Keli & Tammara- hope those bubs are growing nicely!

had scan and he couldnt see any folicles yet, but as the scan was early due to the long weekend, he has given us the all clear to DTD and i will have another scan on tuesday.
bit annoyed though as he said my last cycle would have been anovulation.. because you dont O after 35 days when i know that DD was concieved on day 40ish!
anyway.. just means i have to try harder to catch this month..

he also said there are other options to clomid as i said i wont do it again.. so will chat about them on tuesday

Bec that's awesome news!!!!! Whoo Hoo!

Just thought I'd drop in and see how everyone is doing so it's awesome to hear another LTTTCer has hit the baby jackpot!

GL to everyone else - don't give up hope. It can be so trying at times but clomid, laps, IVF etc etc really can work miracles. We have so many examples from this thread now.

AFM, I'm up to week 9 now and MS has ramped up a notch, but no vomiting and doesn't sound anything like Keli's - you poor thing! I've lost weight due to no appetite, which isn't a good thing as I was a bit underweight to start with. I'll make up for it when my appetite returns! I was in a belly buddy thread for a while but with all the other ladies talking about complications and problems etc I started to freak myself out so am taking a rest from that one for a while. I'm stressing a bit about the 12 week scan - I just want this long awaited bub to be perfectly healthy.

Babydust to all xoxo

Hi girls,
So I got my BT results and my HCG is 65. I was really hoping it would be higher than that, but my GP said not to worry untill we get the results of the next BT on Tuesday to see if it's improved. After scouring the internet and finding all sorts of HCG results for 4 weeks, I found one that said 65 is average for how far along I am. Fingers crossed though!
Talk (lol) soon,
Bec

HI guys,

Bec- hey congrats for your result, don't stress too much about numbers, statistics etc, just revel in the fact you are definately pregnant!!

All you girls with morning sickness- hope its really bad ( in a good way IYKWIM) and those little beans grow stronger by the minute

Orki- I'm with you, I think this is my last month on clomid, was definately feeling a bit weird the last few days, esp at night just before I go to sleep. Hope you have a fun weekend DTD and that the scan on tues is a great result- it just seems the more tests we have the more we find to stress about!

RhiCHiChi- Hi how are you going? Hope everything is going well.

Porsche- are you still around? Hope you are feeling better x

AFM- I'm starting the IVF paperwork, then it will be sorted hopefully by the time we decide to go for it. I had a little meltdown when I realised because DH is a Pom, we need a police check from UK as well as one from aust, god could they make it any more difficult. I am annoyed because I know how long it takes to get them, esp if its from overseas, oh well hopefully won't need it in the end!

Hello my name is linda .i started my second round of clomid.I have been getting Hot flashes so bad.Just on my right side of my face.The doctor up the dose to 100 mg .The first month was 50mg ,didnt work.Im kind of nevous,i heard the higher the dose of clomid can cause twins.Has anyone got pregant with twins on 100mg? I hope everyone has a good weekend.Lot of baby dust throw all around for everyone,best of luck everyone. prayers too!

Linda the risk is higher for multiples on any dosage of clomid. the increase in dosage is to increase the amount of eostrogen that your body will produce to get the O process happening
