    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

    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.

    Hi girls,
    Linda- I have had nausea on clomid, right across my cycle. The only solution, unfortunately is to wait and see! There are months when I'm soooo sure I'm pregnant and I'm not, and when I was sure I wasn't I fell pregnant (m/c both unfortunatly). The waiting is unbearable I know!

    Julia- Have you tested yet? I hope AF has stayed away!

    Porsche- How are you mate? I hope you're on the mend, physically and emotionally. You are very brave, I think.

    Clamgee- Any change with you? How's it all going?

    Mez, Keli, Tammara- Hope you are all well.

    AFM: well, I POAS this morning (even though I swore I would wait till AF was due this month...who am I kidding, I never do!) and just left it on the bathroom counter, assuming it would be negative and I hate sitting there for the three minutes to see no change anyway. SO I took myself back to bed for maybe 20 mins/30mins, and I was getting up to get DS some brekky, and I thought "I'd better check it and chuck it out..." well lo and behold, the bloody thing has 2 damn lines! One is very faint, but I can see it quite clearly. Now I don't know what to think becasue I left it too long, and I don't have any more tests! AHHHH! Any advice would be welcome.

    P.S. DH's response when I said "There's two lines on this thing.." He rolled over (still in bed and hung over from an engagement party last night) "S'Probly lying." I could have smacked him over the head! Although I know he's just trying not to get my hopes up after our last 2 m/c at 5 weeks. But still!

    Sorry for the long post!

    Hello all

    Hi all
    I'm starting to get really attached to this site and finding myself checking it very regularly to see if there are any developments!
    Linda - I feel nauseous most of my cycle!
    Bec - get out and get another test! Sounds very positive tho - everyting crossed for you! Makes me feel more positive when I hear positive news!
    AFM - i'm on day 35 and I think my period has arrived (what does AF stand for - think it means period but don't know the exact words!!) Very slight though and im feeling sick tonight! Boobs are no longer tender - hating my body for tricking me this month!
    I'm gearing up to go back to work on Monday - been off for 2 weeks hols! Deep depression is setting in! However to ease the pain I have counted only 49 working days till my summer holidays!! Can't wait - no plans to go away though! As we're playing the baby waiting game - we're leaving booking anything to the last minute!! Hopefully we won't be going a holiday........
    Can't wait to hear some positive news

    Oooh Bec I so hope it's the positive you've been waiting for. I wouldn't be able to stand not testing again. Go out and get a FR one! It sounds very promising. My FX for you.
