LT TTC & taking Clomid/Metformin #5

clairesmummy - A HUGH CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU what a wonderful birthday present. Wishing LOTS and LOTS OF STICKY VIBES xxxxxx

Bec - I found the other site and was going to go on it today but have woken up bleeding so think i might be staying here. I've never m/c before and i have never bled while pregnant before so not very hopeful at the moment :-((

Oh, rai, I really hope it's not a m/c. When do you get checked again?

You are in my thoughts Rai and I hope hope hope that it's not a m/c!!

Clairesmummy - what dose of clomid were you taking if you don't mind me asking ? :)

Thank you for the congrats and bday wishes everyone I trulyappreciate them all.

Mollie~ My Ob/Gyn put me straight onto 100mg of Clomid from CD5-9, which I was shocked at a little bit as everything I have heard and read they usually start out on 50mg then build it up. But hey whatever works and it certainly did the trick for me. I do stand a higher risk of a multiple birth though as we have twins on both sides of our families so my DR warned me about it but whatever happens happens I'm just happy to finally be PG and praying every minute of the day that this little bub is super dooper sticky.

Clairesmummy congrats on the BFP
Rai I hope everything works out ok
Bec hope everything is going well for you
Hi to everyone else
Well the hardest week of my life is over finally and I am back at work (so this will be a quick one). Took my clomid again and the flushes started immediately which sucks. We are trying the DTD every day for this cycle and hopefully it works. Rang and got my BT results and I O'd so now I have an appointment with the dr on 3rd February and hopefully I will be pregnant or he will be booking me in for a lap and ovarian drilling.
Better get back to work.

Clairesmummy - Congrats again.. It gives me so much hope seeing that your first round you got a BFP. I am started on 50mg.

Shan - good luck on this cycle. i hope you get a BFP!

Rai - Any news ? Thinking of you hun

afm - Hmmm well AF was supposed to arrive today, and I thought I was getting it because I had a couple of cramps last night... But today nothing. No cramps, Not spotting.. NOTHING!! I was all geared to start Clomid tomorrow...Now I dont know what to do..

Mollie - Do you always have a regular cycle? Theres always provera if it doesn't come.

Becnxavi & Clairsmummy - How are you guys travelling? hope all is good!

rai - FX, we are all thinking of you.

ShanShan - Good luck!

AFM, I am due to ovulate today. Last night had some small pains, mainly very tender lower tummy. Weird since last cycle the pain was so intense. We BD every second day since day12 and last night and we will again tonight. I've used pre-seed, stuck my legs in the air and taken my vitamins! PLEASE let this be it! It's so tiring! :lol:

I just found the last box of preseed probably in Sydney!!!!!! phew..........all ready for the next round! Also found vitamins much cheaper............bonus!

Bec - How's everything going really hoping you and pip are going well.

Clairesmummy - Hope everything is going well with you as well.

AFM - Im back had blood tests done yesterday and FS rang this morning my hcg was lower so she said early m/c. I have to have more blood test in the morning not sure what for think to check hcg. Obviously not ment to be the up side is after 30 mths of trying i can actually say that i can fall pregnant it took long enough hopefully not so long next time. Wishing everyone lots of baby dust and sticky vibes

Oh rai. I don't know what to say other than look after yourself. You poor thing!
Your little one is not far away xx

Rai :hug: Like Willi Im not sure what to say, but I am here if you would like to chat :)

Tasha - This last cycle has been a weird one for me, and its hard to explain, but its all good now. AF is here, and clomid starts tomorrow!

question to everyone who has tried clomid.. Do you think that preseed is a nescessity?

Rai :hug: hoping next one is sticky.

Hoping this is ur cycle too tasha and will.

Mollie, I was still wet according to dh lol on clomid and reading ff they said no lube can help. Having said that, sme swear by preseed so no harm trying I guess. Fx

Afm: well this cycle was a total stuff up. I relied on opks and my fertility monitor to determine dtd this mnth as we are both burnt out! Anyway my monitor seemd to break just in time after showing 7 days high fert and no ovulaton

According to ff I did ovulate but we only dtd o-2

But ive been feeling so heavy dwn there feels like a large cyst is grwing or smethng! Ana to make matters worse I just startd a new job and feel like im cming down with the flu!

Thanks M2OSB. I guess we will try this cycle without, and maybe next cycle with preseed...Hope you feel better soon.

Rai, my heartfelt condolences. It's a hard thing to go through. Hopefully now you have the right meds etc, and you know you ovulated. But right now you are totally entitled to feel like crap. I hope it wont take you long to call pg again, make sure they do all the tests they can (they can be reluctant, but if you insist they usually will) if you want them. I wish you didn't have to go through it, I wish noone did. huge hugs for you *hugs*

All good here, another BT tomorrow and hopefully a scan in the next few days. GL this cycle everyone!
Bec

rai - Big hugs. I am really sorry. You're right, at least you know your body can do it.

Mollie - You don't have to use pre-seed, but clomid may dry up your CM. That is the case for a lot of us. Plus I use it because I never get EWCM. Good luck.

M2OSB - So you had no pains this cycle? I am having pain today, not as bad, but still very uncomfortable. That's how I know I'm ovulating I guess. I don't really get any other signs. Good luck this cycle!

Rai~ I just want to say I am so sorry hun, it's heartbreaking to go through a MC but always know your little angel will always be with you darl. Take care of you hun and sending you some huge hugs darl. Thinking of you.

Thank you everyone for the congrats, I am doing ok starting to feel sick every now and then though. Went to the DR yesterday just to confirm by BFP and she did BT as well for me, I forgot to ask her if the BT would show my levels. Might have to wait awhile though to get the results as I don't think they would of got to the lab today with the flooding we are all going through at the moment. I had the biggest scare of my life yesterday when I heard the news about Toowoomba as my DD is over there at the moment with her dad, so in a mad panick I was sending text messages and trying to phone him to check to see if my little girl was safe. I finally got to talk to him on the phone and my little girl is safe and they are high and dry where they are. I was a mess yesterday afternoon crying non stop with total fear that my girl could of been down town with her dad.

Mollie - I didn't think I needed preseed (or the equivalent) but after 1 or two bd's I really did! Sorry for tmi but it was inside that hurt/burned afterwards not during. So I was fine to start with, but I couldn't have continued after that! I think the point is that it lines the whole way up.
