LT TTC & taking Clomid/Metformin #5

[lilminion]

Rai, don't get down to much hun, we all have that much going on with our bodies with TTC and weightloss. And not to put a downer on your mum, but sounds like she needs to support you, not being on your back about things. (hope that doesn't sound too nasty)

Bec wow, that is great news about the weightloss, wooo hooo

Mollie you aren't a nerd for writting down the questions, it's great to be prepared.

Well I'm out for this cycle, AF decided to pay me a visit today and it has already started to be heavy and painfull We are going to the FS next thurs to start our last IUI cycle before IVF. We have decided that if we aren't pg by xmas we are going to have a break, and save our $$ for IVF.

Hope everyone has a great weekend. Babydust to everyone

Thanks for your wishes for me and Dylan.

Yes it was definately a BIG surprise when the dr said HE is a big boy lol but not dissapointed in any way he is happy and healthy and doing great.

I forgot who asked but we were told definately a girl - just a bit wrong there DR. Luckily we did the nursery neutral just had to take all the clothes back that we had bought.

Just fed my boy and now i think its time to sleep.

Hope your all doing great fingers crossed for you all xxoo

Hello everyone,

Af is coming today, so I'm out of the game this month. CD 35 today and about time! I just want to start my second round of clomid and I've been waiting forever!!
Good luck to all and enjoy the beautiful weekend weather

sounds like lots of new cycles starting. I'm probably going to have to primolut an AF since I'm guessing I didn't o, so won't get one. I really have to ring my FS!
Tammara- I hope little Dylan is bringing you as much joy as you deserve hon. Silly u/s people think they know everything! I'm sure it was a shock, but it sounds like you're excited regardless which is awesome. I was watching this thing on Foxtel about this lady that had like 6 boys and everytime she got pregnant she cried at the u/s when they told her it was another boy. I was literally yelling at the tv "Ungrateful!!!!!". But I guess until you're in our shoes you take it for granted! I'm glad you're going well, and I hope you are coping ok with the sleep deprivation

Liz & Tasha; onto a new cycle! Liz- it's great that you o'd on your own this month, and tash, I hope the 2nd round is easy for you (and your last!)

Hi to everyone else. Not much to report here. No symptoms at all, except maybe a hyper sense of smell. No sore bb's, no real niggles or anything. I'm having a relaxing weekned of not worrying (except about writing reports!).
Enjoy the sunshine Melbourne-ites!

Hi ladies, im hoping to join this group and get some great advice from you laides.

Well I have been trying for bub num two now for almost a year. Went to see the fs a few months back and gor perscribed pervera and clomid.

Anyway I have been delaying taking pervera due to many reasons. On cd 124 (no you have not misread this lol) I thoguht af came and got very excited. I was bleeding and wiping red. However, this stopped and I slept with a clean pad. Yesterday the same thing happened.

So question is, do I still count it ad cd 1 or I have to wait for full blown bleeding before I can count it as cd 1?

Thanks in advance

hi mum2onesweetbun. Is your FS contactable? Maybe you could get him/her to give you a call and advise what to do? SOmetimes if you haven't had a AF for a while it can be all over the place! I hope your AF starts properly so you can get started on your clomid. GL!

Mum2onesweetbun~ My OB/GYN told me to count any type of bleeding as CD1 onwards. Even if it's only spotting. Hope this helps in some type of way but if you can call your FS that would be great , good luck hun and praying you get your answers soon.

Oh god I feel your pain. At the moment I am cd 73. But before that I got to cd 234 and then I got AF!!

Hope everything works out.

AFM - I am seeing my FS tomorrow and going to be speaking to her about taking provera and then starting clomid. I want to get this rollercoaster moving!!

Sorry for no other persies.. Dont worry though I will hopefully be joining here completely in the next couple of weeks.
Have a good week everyone

Hi All,

I don't seem to be getting the emails, so I merrily go along thinking no one is posting and then come back to check and there are so many things happening, I have lost track of everyone!

Still no BFP's in here it seems though?? What's with that, surely someone is due!

Lots of newbies - welcome to you all!! You will find the advice invaluable and the support of these ladies priceless. Somehow knowing you are not alone in your sometimes seemingly crazy pursuit of procreation, makes it all so much easier. There are girls at so many different stages in here, and there is almost always someone that knows how you are feeling at any point, and even if they don't, they all sympathise with you all the same.

AFM - Appointment at my OB/GYN on Thursday, so hopefully will be off to the FS before the end of the year, or even more hopefully this cycle of Clomid will work and I can go back to the OB/GYN before I even get to the FS! One can only dream!! Not sure if it's the changing weather, but this cycle I seem to be the incredible hulk. I swear sometimes I must have turned in to a big green monster, because my moods swings are insane and I just feel like crap most the time... *sigh*

Lots of dust to everyone!!

[1 more please]

ShanShan - Thank you heaps for your tip i think your right it is easier to excercise with someone and to vary your workouts i do get sick of doing the same thing all the time, Thanks

RhiChiChi - Thanks i do agree with bec and your self you do have to be in the right head space i was about 7 years ago and lost 30kg in 3 months and kept it off for years. Its so easy to lose the plot its so fustrating and so hard to get into that right head space again goodluck. I'm really really sorry IUI was unsuccessful. I understand completly about being over TTC but please please dont give up i know its so dissapointing but it will happen. Yeah i seem to say that alot it just should not be this hard. Lots and Lots of baby dust to you.

Epayne - Your right we have everything going on with weightloss and TTC it just kind of gets too much sometimes. My mum is usually really supportive she helped me lose the weight before but its easy for her she weighs 50kg. So sorry AF showed up it can be very dissapointing. My hopes and prayers are with you to get pg by xmas.

Tamara - Congratulations on your little boy what a wonderful suprise even though you had to return all the pink, boys are so amazing i thank god everyday for mine. Congratulations again

Keli - Not long to go now its so exciting cant wait for the birth announcement. Wishing you an easy fast labour.

Tash - I agree with nothing2lose i would talk to my FS first. I take mine days 2-6 but my FS has said it did not matter if i started a bit late. Goodluck

mollie86 - Oh my goodness you poor thing i could'nt even imagine how fustrated you must be. Goodluck with FS today hope you get the provera so then you can start clomid. Hope it all works out.

AFM - My eldest son graduated high school on Friday it was so sad (pleased i was not the only one crying) i just cant believe or understand where all the years have gone its really sad. Then i think i will be doing it all over again in 14 years with my 3 year old and that thought just makes me feel really old!!!
HOPE EVERYONE HAS A WONDERFUL WEEK
