LT TTC & taking Clomid/Metformin #3

[miss kris]

i was so excited yesterday because my temp skyrocketed, but today it come down a bit again, which got me a bit disheartened. Though it still is a high temp. Here is the link 2bb4bd Ovulation Charts so you see what i mean lol but i found with clomid my temps are really raised and all over the place as i have been having really bad sleeps as well...

[Keli]

So I had a look at your chart, to me it looks like you O'd somewhere between Thursday and Saturday (inclusive), I cant be certain though. I'm sure all you feel like you're doing is waiting but maybe see what tomorrow's temp does and then reassess. I'm thinking you've O'd though. Are you having a BT this month to confirm?

[miss kris]

yeah blood test on friday! Which should be CD21 (but im hoping is 7DPO) lmao!

thanks for your help Keli!
How far along are you now? Are you going to find out what you are having?

[Keli]

Well that will be good to get a BT, then you can know for sure. Maybe DTD for the next few days anyway until you are SURE your temp has gone up. Keep me posted on how it goes. I have everything crossed that this is your month.

I am 17weeks now, cant believe how fast it flys. Our next scan is on the 4th August and no we have decided we're going to have a suprise. So our baby is having a multicoloured room.

KUP on your progress! Fx'ed!

Oh my gosh Hope, That's great!!!!! I am so excited for you! I hope and pray for you that you've got a sticky one, but maybe when you see you GP you could be refered onto a specialist straight away becasue of your history? Whoo Hoo!! I wouldn't stress too much about what you did or didn't do early in pregnancy, by the sounds of it, it was around ovulation, and I've heard drinking and stuff is mainly a problem once the placenta begins to function??? Plenty of people (including me) got plastered before they found out they were pregnant and have gone on to have healthy bubs. You will too!

Kris- It's annoying isn't it? Hopefully Keli is right and you have already o'd and we can be TWW buddies! Hopefully your BT gives you more of an indication of what is happening.

AFM: Well I'm pretty sure I've o'd. Here's my weekend: I was so sure that I had o'd on Friday, but Friday when I did my o test the second line was bit lighter than the test line, then SAt it was really dark, but I had hardly any EWCM. Sunday it was darker again, and still not much EWCM! We just keep DTD hoping that we've got the egg!!! So I'm counting o from today. I'm actually glad I've gone back to work, so I will be busy, busy, busy and I won't have time to sit and consider every bump, pain, niggle or ginormous bang my body does! Although...I've had shocking reflux for 2 days now, which is much too early to be a PG sign, but it's there none the less. I've probably given myself and ulcer from worrying about o'ing!
I'm also hovering between 'crazy demented psycho' and 'sobbing mess' for the past few days so my hormones must be going nuts! Darn clomid!
Aidios Amigos!

Hope everyone is having a good day just poped in to let you know we finally know we are having a little girl im sooooooo excited

[Hope!]

Keli: Very stoked about not having to do lap. Still dont know if we will be moving before the years out but if we do, like you said in an earlier post (I think it was you), I wont have to do much of the moving, lol.

ShanShan: Thanks for the congrats. I'll be sure to keep you updated. Don't you worry, I believe everyone in here will be getting there BFP real soon.

Miss Kris: Sorry, cant really help you with your Q's. I had clomid on CD2 - 6 and than my cramping started about 5 days later. I'm not too sure what the difference is with the different cycle days. GL with your BT on Friday.

Bec: Thanks so much Bec. I'm going to GP tomorrow and to OB/Gyno on Friday. The OB/Gyno is who had been helping us on our journey.
I bet DH was loving DTD. From what you said how your weekend planned out, it sounds very hopeful. Lets hope that you were able to catch that egg. I hope that reflux dies down for you.

All the best.

[Hope!]

Thats great news Tammara. I'm sure she will be the most gorgeous little girl ever.

hey guys another quest.... my cycle is weird got my period on 8th july went for one day stopped for one day then came back for 1/2 day.... I dont get it!!! should this be happeing? and my last cycle went for 38 days!! weird as!! i started cycle 3 of clomid 150 and diaformin today... just wondering if ne1 else had this?

[Hope!]

lisi_lou85: Q - is AF now in full swing for you? I am asking this cause you said that you have started cycle 3 of clomid. If AF is now here properly it can be normal to get a couple of on off days before it starts (at least I think it is normal as I sometimes got this). If AF is not here yet, I cant really help as I do not understand the taking Clomid while there is no AF. I know some people do it though. Another Q - this is just for curiosity, have you POAS at all lately?

[Porsche]

Hope just a BIG CONGRATULATIONS!

Tammara Wow a little princess. Congrats.

[miss kris]

BEC!! We are TWW buddies! lol! My FF chart thinks i ovulated on Saturday, but i am sure i ovulated earlier then that!

Congrats on a little girl Tammara!!

Just a question, have you ladies ever heard of the chinese lunar calander baby predictor? It goes by your age and what month you conceived as to what you will have. I thought it was a crock buuuuut i have done all my brother and sisters any myself and my friend babies and its been right!
It has me intrigued!

[Hope!]

Nope sorry miss kris, havent heard of that. Sounds interesting though. WHere did you find that.

[miss kris]

my friend found it, and did it for her little girl and it was correct lol
you can google it and it comes up with it.

[Hope!]

lol, I had a go and one said girl and the other said boy

Hope - Congratulations on your BFP, awesome news and gives the rest of us hope :-) FX for a sticky one!!

Tammara - Great news on a little girl, little girls are so much fun, best of luck for the rest of your pregnancy, hope it goes quickly and smoothly

Miss Kris - Try not to stress hun, if you have been DTD you should be absolutely fine, unfortunately everything else is out of our control... Hopefully your BT comes back with a strong positive of an O

LisiLou - Sorry hun, I haven't had that situation either, probably best to speak with your FS or Gyno... It seems like from reading these forums the norm is that there is no normal... Everyone seems to have very different cycles??

Bec - Sorry to hear about your emotions hun, I know what it is like.. I really hope it settles down for you really soon, as for the EWCM do you always get it? I got it last month but haven't had it this month?? :-( I agree, good to be busy busy busy and focus on something else... It is hard when you are solely focused on all the little niggles (that's what I did last month)

Shan Shan - How are you going? Have the symptoms settled down yet? I hope it hasn't been too horrid this month

AFM - CD17, haven't had an EWCM this month like I did last month, which is a bit worrying :-( I was cramping at the back end of last week though... I don't chart nor did I get around to doing the OPK so have no idea if I have O'd... And to make it worse I picked up a gastro virus yesterday so DTD has been put on hold so who knows if this month is a write off :-( I am hoping to be 100% tomorrow so we can DTD then just in case... Otherwise all symptoms seem to have gone, really not feeling like this is going to be the month...

AF never came back just went for almost 2 days but the 2nd day very light... weird.. havent done poas yet but maybe do one later tonight... I just feel like crap and i have had a upset stomach for 11 days now mostly at night

[lilminion]

wow it looks like everyone has been very busy, sorry for being MIA, just been very busy I had the erge last week to rearrange the house which DH didn't seem to like to much hehehe.

Hope congrats on the BFP that is such great news. I think you might be right about having an influx of BFP's, well hoping you are anyway. GL with having a stress free pregnancy.

Pumpgirl my cycles were like that my first clomid cycle I had EWCM, my second had none and this cycle I had a little on fri and I mean a little. So it might be just your body changing with the cycle, like you said nothing is normal.

Lisi-Lou everyone's cycle are different, my first cycle of clomid OMG it felt like it wasn't going to end AF was a full seven days (which previously on the pill was 5 days) and was so heavy. My second cycle I started one day, then the next woke up with nothing and started around lunch time, and AF was like that for 5 days my FS got me to start clomid still on CD2 though. And this cycle I had AF for 6 days and wasn't heavy as my first cycle but was still heavy enough. Hope that helps you out a bit, like Pumpgirl said what is normal...

Congrats on having a little girl Tammara, now you will be prepared and have the right clothes ect, it seems at the momant that everything in the shops is either pink or blue, and not much is unisex.

Bec you poor thing sending you big hugs and hoping you are feeling better. I know what you mean about keeping yourself busy, I think that is why I decided to rearrange the house lol. Just a little question if you doin't mind, what is the line on the OPK supposed to look like, I have been doing the tests and on both Fri and Sat when I did the test it had two lines, but the second one wasn't as dark as the first line in was about half of the darkness (if that makes sense), DH loved the idea of spending most of the time in bed on the weekend (sorry TMI) so I am hoping I have o'd over the weekend too.

AFM I have been keeping myself busy changing the house around and doing OPK tests. I think though DH is enjoying me being alot happier than what I have been lately with being sleep deprived, damn you wierd dreams lol. Anyway I think I have o'd on the weekend which I am hoping I did, cause I haven't yet o'd on the clomid and if this cycle doesn't work my next one I will be having FSH injections as well. Better go and have some dinner before DH eats it all on me. Sorry if I have missed anyone.

Sending lots of Babydust to everyone.
