LT TTC & taking Clomid/Metformin 2010 #1

[RhiChiChi]

hey richchi, what a bummer you have to wait all weekend to get results - i kinda hope there is something wrong with it so you guys have an answer but also i dont want anything going against you guys

How are things going in your world porche? hope everything is still going great

Im feeling much better today, no more bleeding at all so i think it was just getting the old blood out. Cant wait for the months to pass now. I was telling hubby that i think im a bit strange becaue as strange as it sounds i want to experience morning sickness and all the other preg symptoms

Have a wonderful weekend girls

Same here - I would be sort of relieved if something was 'wrong', although nothing serious of course. I would be bummed if I was the only issue.

You are not strange for wanting to experience those things - I am hopeless when sick/nauseated, but I was hoping that I would be sick when pg with DD so that I knew everything was ok - IYKWIM?

Have a great weekend all

Congrats Tammara! I also had a day or two of light bleeding when pregnant with DS, but all was well. I'm so glad everything seems to have settled down.

Porsche- how you going? All ok?

Keli- hope you o'd and you're entering the TWW with me!

Rhi- GL with SA on Monday. I can imagine you are in two minds about the results. On one hand, I'm sure you don;t want anything to be wrong, but on the other,if there is at least you'll know what the problem is. I hope you at least get some answers!

AFM- well I finally o'd on Friday so 13 days to wait untill AF (or not). Off to see the FS on Saturday just to check results of Hysteroscopy and make sure I'm travelling ok. He wants to move on from clomid to Gonal f, which sounds a bit scary. The only other option is IVF, so I guess I'll give Gonal a go... oh well!

So, who else is TWWing at the moment? I've lost track with all the excitment of our UTDers!

[becnxavi]

So, odd question for you all...does anyone else have REALLY painful Ovulation on Clomid? Mine is worse than period pain at times. Bizzare to ask I know, but I was just wondering...

[Frustrated]

Yes, i was in a gret deal of pain at times when i o'd on the chlomid, i remember iwas out once and i was curled over in my seat in pain, at least we cant miss the opportunity then hey .. Lol

[Mez Moz]

I thought I lost you ladies for a minute and the tammara (yay ur UTD!!!)pointed me to this new thread. Phew! You ladies are my lifeline on this TTC journey.

Keli, I'm on day 16 and about to O too so we might be 2WW buddies!

Porsche, are you OK?

RiChiChi I have my fingers crossed that you get a result that can help you move away from the unexplained....

AFM, doing lot's of OPKs and BDing. This will be my first complete cycle after my lap, so I'm hoping DH's sperm swim quickly through my tubes and get that egg! I've been teaching a few ladies prenatal yoga now and I'm loving it and hoping all the nurturing I'm doing for them will helps my body start to do some nurturing of it's own! I so want to experience what they are going through...fingers crossed that it will happen soon.

Babydust to you all!

Hey all,

Hope you are all enjoying your weekend. We went out for lunch today for my brothers b'day to a winery and it was lovely. Glad to just sit back and enjoy the moment

Bec - Last cycle I had extreme pain on CD14 (which I assume was O pain) to the point where at times I had to stop what I was doing and sit or curl over. Is gonal f an oral medication or do you have to inject it (sorry for my ignorance)

Maz - Best of luck catching that egg!

I will pop in sometime Monday & let you know how we went with the S/A

[Keli]

Morning Ladies,

Hope you are all well and those BFP ladies have had a fabulous weekend.

Porsche - is everything ok? Haven't heard from you in a few days. I have everything crossed that AF didn't arrive on Sunday and that you get a Positive BT very soon so that it is confirmed.

Hey Tamarra, how was your first weekend expecting? Have you told anyone yet or are you keeping it to yourselves for a little while? Ahhh I still cant believe it, I am so happy for you and DH. Is your cousin wrapped also?

Rhi - GL for today, looking forward to hearing your results.

Mez, yes I am now on day 18 so we are one day apart. We can defiantly be TWW buddies, and hopefully BFP buddies. This too is my first "proper" cycle since the opp, so fingers crossed.

Bec, I am back on Clomid this month and experienced very painful O last night, never had it before on Clomid though, bizarre!

AFM - Pretty sure I O'd last night, got a positive OPK on Sat (& another one on Sun) and was in a lot of pain last night on my RHS which is fantastic cos it's my LHS that is blocked, so we DTD last night and will again tonight as my temp has not yet gone up and I'm very hopeful this month. Could be setting myself up for a fall but all we really have is hope so I guess I've got to try.

Quick question – does anyone know how soon after O is your temp supposed to go up? Does it mean that I didn’t O last night if my temp has not yet gone up?

Thanks ladies, GL to all xxoo

[RhiChiChi]

Keli - Awesome news about Oing! GL catching that egg. My understanding is your temp goes up AFTER you have O. So I would say that since your temp didn't go up then you haven't O yet.

AFM - Got DH S/A results - all clear. Kind of in two minds about it - happy that there is one less force going against us but upset that it would seem that I am the whole problem Oh, well we will continue to keep trying this month & next and if nothing then back to the GYNO/OBS & probably get a lap done.

Hi Mez Moz & Keli

Yep all is going well. Been really busy the last few days. I've been POAS everyday lol. Every time it's saying BFP. I did a digital one yesterday and within 30 seconds it was a "pregnant".

So nope AF didn't arrive. And i think it's safe to say I am UTD! I'm not going to have a BT. I have a post op appointment with FS on the 15th so I guess if she wants to do one then, then it will be confirmed but I really don't think I need it. I think 7 + are pretty clear.

As for your O question Keli. Your temp should go up straight away when you've O'd. It's not neccissarily a huge jump. it could progressively go up over a few days. Are you on FF?

I'm going to keep my FX for you ladies. Your BFP is just around the corner.

[Keli]

Hey Porsche, I’m so glad to hear all is going well for you, that is fantastic. Yes I would tend to agree that 7+ is a pretty good indication, lol I love it!

Yeah so my temp was at 36.3 this morning and whilst that is not low it is also not that high, mind you my temp has been all over the place this month so I’m just confused now. I got a positive OPK on Sat (& on Sun) so am thinking that I have O’d but we’ll keep DTD just in case I haven’t. Seriously it all just so confusing.

Rhi, that’s good news about DH but yes I can appreciate your frustration. I certainly feel like a bit of a dud sometimes 
Good luck with the next few cycles then and yes if not the a lap sounds like a great idea.

Hi my name is linda,im new to the web site.I just started taking Clomid last month.Im having these weird feeling right before my period.My boobs are not hurting like they usually do.I feel a little nauses but thats usually nornal sometimes before i start my period. Any suggestion on if you think i might be pregant ,anyone else had these sythom and become pregant.I took a early preg. test it came out negative.I start my period on the 19 of april 2010. thank you !

[RhiChiChi]

Hi Linda and welcome to BB & this thread. I have just completed my sixth & last round of clomid and are currently in the tww. I have 'heavy' bbies - in the past my nipples (sorry of tmi) would be sore, but this time they are 'heavy', no nausea though. I did get side effects on Clomid such as insomnia, hot flushes but no nausea. I took my Clomid in the evening & this was suppose to lessen symptoms. I know nausea can be a side effect from Clomid but can indicate early pg. I am not sure when you O, so perhaps it is too early to test for pg? I did a test yesterday & it was neg but I am still hopeful & will re-test tomorrow when AF is due. Best of luck to you

[Porsche]

Hi Linda

And welcome. I usually get tender BB's before my AF. That was one of the side effects that would confuse me when I started taking clomid but now I know it is just part f it.

Do you know if you have ovulated? That might help to know if you are testing too early or not. Has your Dr done a 21 day BT to see if you have ovulated?

I really don't have alot of information to tell you as your question is a bit vague. The signs your having can all lead to a pregnancy but then clomid does give you those side effects as well.

[linda5]

Hello thank you for answering my question.I did ovulate on day 18 when i usually do.Since i had my misscarriage in october of 2009 my period seem to be irregular sometime.No my doctor did not do a test on me on the 21 day. which was werid i keep reading about that.Usually i used to start on the day of my period or maybe 1 day late. I notice today i started to get bloated and my boobs still dont hurt either. I have a 28 day cycle. Last month i started my period 3days early ,I started taking the clomid last month on the 25 day 3 thru 7 of my period.I was on clomid before and got pregant with my son but never has these werid side affect before my period had period sythom but got preg..This time is different.I was on 50 mg and got pregant the first round but took it days 5-9.Which is werid my doctor said once i recive a postive to have intercourse the day after i get a +.Every other day. For 1 weeks.It so differnt now since i took it a long time ago. any suggestions! thank you.

[linda5]

I took the clomid start on april 25 the 3rd day of my period not the 25 days.Sorry about that.
