Hi Ladies,

Newbie here! It looks like it's been a while since anyone has posted here - anyone want to join me?

I may get lonely in here ... and start talking to myself ... and nobody wants to see that

Oh well, I'm currently in the 2WW so a little bit of madness i inevitable

Hi Kylie...
I'll join you.. this is my 3rd round of Clomid 25mg... I'm in the TWW as well but because my thermometer battery went flat I have no idea what day I "o"ed.. I'm assuming I did cause i had 2 days of cramping but we'll see.. Have you had many symptoms and did you find them getting worse from one cycle to the next.. i have really felt like I went from no probs first time to cycle from hell.. Well good luck and maybe we can both get our BFP's this time round..
Dee

erybery - Congratulations, that's fantastic!!!

erybery & LSK - Thank you so much for giving us hope - everyone keeps saying 'it'll happen' but it makes you really believe it when you see it happen for people who have come from exactly where we are now

Hi Dee, thanks for joining me!

Have you had much luck with temping? I tried it but it didn't seem to work for me whereas OPK's do so I don't temp at all now.

As for symptoms and side effects, YES I suffer really bad but the wierdest thing is that Cycle 1 was o.k, Cycle 2 was hell, Cycle 3 was o.k and Cycle 4 was hell - I have an odds & evens thing happening LOL! This cycle has been hell but on the upside, it's the first time I've really felt myself O ... sure, it hurt like hell but it was nice all the same (made me feel like something was actually happening!).

Last cycle we discovered that the Clomid was eradicating my CM so this cycle we've used Robitussin & Preseed also. This cycle we discovered that my LMP is 16 days (thanks to OPK's), not 14 days as the GP said so I really do think that we're in with a chance this cycle - just a shame that it took 4 cycles to make these discoveries ugh!

It looks like we may be due for AF around the same time (I'm due 16th of Feb - 16dpo) so it would be awesome to get out of this thread together! Is this your last cycle on Clomid before IVF or are you going to keep batting on? Are you seeing a FS or monitoring yourself? Sorry,so many questions LOL

Fingers crossed for a BFP for both of us!
